Marxist STS

Johan Söderberg (Göteborg University),
Maxigas (Lancaster University / University of Amsterdam),
and Davide Orsini (Mississippi State University)

The historical roots of STS go back to Marxism. Many of the issues currently being debated in relation to technology and science begun as debates in-between Marxist intellectuals, notably concerning the status of science and ideology critique. By returning to this history and to Marxist theoretical resources, new insights can be gained when addressing STS questions. This panel invites presentations exploring the Marxist roots of STS as well as new, theoretical work broadly inspired by Marxism.

Keywords: Capitalism, Ideology, Critique, Marxism, Class

Categories: Knowledge, Theory and Method, Economics, Markets, Value/Valuation

OBS.: Deadline 29th February.
