What versions of STS are we circulating? A panel conversation

How is STS being circulated, in which forms and why? These are the overarching questions to build a critical and reflexive conversation with the editors of three German language volumes that introduce versions of Science and Technology Studies. With this conversation we hope to address the standardisation, canonisation and disciplining of STS that is intentionally or collaterally effected. Specifically, these three volumes provide the ground for discussion: (a) Lengersdorf, D. & Wieser, M. (Eds.) 2014: Schlüsselwerke der Science & Technology Studies. VS Verlag für Sozialwissenschaften; (b) Beck, S.; Niewöhner, J. and Sörensen, E. (Eds.) 2014: Science and technology studies: Eine sozialanthropologische Einführung. transcript Verlag; (c) Bauer, S.; Heinemann, T. and Lemke, T. (Eds.) 2017: Science and Technology Studies. Klassische Positionen und aktuelle Perspektiven. Suhrkamp Verla
