Society for Social Studies of Science 2nd Joint Meeting 

As we convene for the ESOCITE/4S 2022 Joint Meeting in Cholula, Mexico, we invite our colleagues to consider how to come together again (in difference), how to recover what was valuable (and dismantle oppressive structures), and how to reconfigure assemblages of humans and more-than-humans (and design and create new ones).  We aim to provoke reflection on the practices, representations, materializations, and dynamics of social relations in which science, technology and knowledge are central elements. We thus propose to continue the tradition of a deep and broad understanding of the production, use and circulation of technoscientific knowledge, as well as its critical evaluation and the way in which it is articulated with economic, social, cultural, and political power structures. This second joint conference in Latin America, after the first in Buenos Aires in 2014, invites us to update debates that, although marked by the traditions brought together here, can transcend them, and trigger further encounters.
