Consider and discuss some group relationship that you have
from an Actor-Network Theory (ANT) perspective. In class we
discussed how this perspective argues that in addition to
humans, non-humans and objects also have agency (or in other
words, make things happen). It also argues that to understand a
group (cultural or otherwise), one must recognize and take
account of the significance of ALL of the following: the humans
who are involved in the group, the objects that the group uses to
define itself and recreate the bonds that hold it together and the
involvement and influence of any non-humans (pets, animals in
general, plants, trees – any living things). Consider then, how
the people, things that the people use and any non-humans help
to define the group.
Submit:
Identify and describe the group (think about groups like your
family, your friends, organizations, teams) that you will analyze
from the ANT perspective.
Describe the people (humans) in the group. What
characteristics/activities/situations/ideas/beliefs help to define
them as members of this group?
Describe the objects that help to unify/define/distinguish the
group. What things are important in understanding what the
group believes/does/represents?
Describe the non-humans that unify/define/distinguish the
group. What non-humans (if any) are important in
understanding what the group believes/does/represents?
