STS Italia: Quantum social science, reflexivity and STS

Dear all,

If you are interested in critically engaging with 'other reals', especially those enacted by a non-mathematized reading of quantum theory -- Milan and STS Italia (June 11-13, 2025) is you place to be!

We invite you to submit to the session "Quantum social science, reflexivity and STS: Engaging with agential realism and other reals": Quantum social science, reflexivity and STS_ Engaging with agential realism and other reals (ID_21)_pdf

The ambition of engaging with other reals is not, of course, to arrive at a better formulation of what reality 'really' is but, as Woolgar and Lazaun suggested, "to interfere with the assumption of a singular, well ordered world".

This panel has the aim to politicize Cartesian/Newtonian reals - challenge their taken-for-grantedness in mundane lifeworld settings - and also to discuss other reals, like those of quantum theory and their relevance to make the world a somewhat better place.

Pls submit your abstracts (max 500 words) through the conference platform! The closing date for submission is February 3, 2025.

See you in Milan!

Robert
