Studying Reconfigurations of Discourse: Tracing the Stability and Materiality of 'Sustainability/Carbon'

Die Stabilität von Diskursen ist nicht gegeben, sondern hergestellt. Sie wird erreicht durch die Dispositiv-Konfigurationen, also dem praktischen und andauernden ›assembling‹ von semiotischen und materiellen Entitäten.

Anhand alltäglicher Büropraktiken, die den betrieblichen Nachhaltigkeits/carbondiskurs konfigurieren, wird nachgezeichnet, wie qualitative Datenanalyse, Grounded Theory sowie Ansätze der Science and Technology Studies verflochten werden können, um eine in den Daten begründete und generalisierbare Diskursethnographie zu er möglichen.... view less

Using mundane office practices that configure the corporate sustainability/carbon discourse as an example, the article spells out how qualitative data analysis, grounded theory and Science and Technology Studies approaches can be interwoven to pursue a grounded and generalisable ethnographic study of discourse.... view less
