Is it a thing, a property that some people possess and others do not? Or is it a capacity that exists relationally between humans? Does this capacity to act, to effect change, or to animate objects necessarily need be a human trait? Under what conditions can non-humans ?act? to produce social institutions and drive nature-society-technology relations? Perhaps, following Latour (2005), human and non-human nature and technologies are all social and by looking to the emergence of the associations that bind them, we can get to a more robust theorization of the relationship between ?social? power, institutions and the environment. In this seminar we will examine the way that myriad answers to these questions inform the way we examine social power relations, social institutions and environmental change.
