We would like to invite submissions to our panel Organizing Technoscientific
<br>Capitalism: Assets, Rents, and Values at this years EASST/4S conference in
<br>Prague, August 2020. The deadline for submitting an abstract is February 29,
<br>2020.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Technoscientific capitalism is organized through the configuration of
<br>technological products, platforms, and data, as well as the configuration of
<br>capitalist practices like accounting, corporate governance, and valuation
<br>logics. As a result, technoscientific capitalism entails organizational
<br>dynamics and inter-organizational relationships that often get obscured within
<br>STS debates about the supposed neoliberalization of society and science. In
<br>this panel, we want to explore how assets, rents, and values are made through
<br>this configuration of technoscience and capitalism. There are many possible
<br>analytical and empirical avenues and questions to explore here: How do
<br>managerial practices and collaborations underpin the transformation of things
<br>into assets? How do organizational epistemologies and resources manifest as
<br>different forms of rentiership? And how do public-private logics and
<br>frameworks produce specific forms of socio-economic values? Overall, we are
<br>concerned with examining how diverse processes of assetization, rentiership,
<br>and valuation open up and/or close down alternative futures and political
<br>possibilities.
