Dear colleagues,
we invite for contributions for the following Open Panel at STS-Hub 2025
in Berlin, 11-14 March 2025:
Feminist Diffractions for Critical Transformations in Science &
Technology Studies
Feminist Science & Technology Studies (Feminist STS) have grown to a
vibrant, constantly evolving and differentiated research field that
provides a wealth of insights into how the critical in STS can be
developed further. As part of Feminist STS, concepts of situatedness
(Haraway 1988) and diffraction (Barad 2003) as research practices
embrace the critical. Feminist STS scholars in German contexts pursued
these approaches to develop self-reflexive research that investigates
social inequalities, capitalist, imperialist and neo-colonial practices
in science & technology. To name a few, Bath et al. (2017) suggests
response-ability for critical STS, Ernst (2017) argues for emancipatory
interferences in engineering, Erlemann (2024) develops re-figurations of
epistemic practices to diffract the critical and Schmitz, Papenburg &
Lucht (2023) identify meeting points of Feminist STS with Postcolonial
Studies. In this open panel, we aim to foster dialogues among scholars
who work on interventions into science and technology from Feminist STS
perspectives. We invite contributions that address societal challenges
that are engrained in the techno-sciences and that discuss whether and
to what end science & technology can be transformed through integrating
feminist paradigms into STS research including intersectional,
postcolonial, de-colonial, post-humanist and queer research perspectives
as well as participatory and/or experimental approaches.
