About STS, the Transnational STS Network, and the STS on Edge Roundtable Series

STS -- Science and Technology Studies -- is  a transnational, interdisciplinary research  community that studies the social and cultural dimensions of science and technology expansively  conceived (including study of different types  of knowledge and knowledge institutions, for example). The Transnational STS Network formed to deepen the transnational scope and diversity of STS.  The STS on Edge Roundtable series is designed to create opportunities to meet and learn from researchers, teachers, artists and other critical cultural actors  in places outside established STS networks, especially  places dealing with  intense volatility and precarity.   We want to be informed about  these areas and find ways to work in solidarity  with them.
