[Air-l] Citations wished for on "interpretative reflexivity"

[Matt Ratto]

Dear Denise, 

not sure exactly what you're looking for - the first use of the term ïnterpretive reflexivity" or work on more general concepts of reflexivity and sts. If the latter, I've always found Steve Woolgar's comments to be thought-provoking, in particular, his responses to Collins and Yearly in the 'epistemological chicken' debate: 

(1992) "Some Remarks about Positivism: A Reply to Collins and Yearly" in Science as Practice and Culture, ed. Pickering, A., University of Chicago Press, Chicago. pp. 327-342

He also has a book which addresses this subject: 

(1988) Knowledge and Reflexivity: New Frontiers in the Sociology of Knowledge. Sage, Beverly Hills. 

Nice stuff in here by Malcolm Ashmore . 

best, 

Matt
