Actor-Network TheoryhttpsenwikipediaorgwikiActor-network_theory
For agency to be expressed and consequences
produced
actions need to
(1)involve several actors (acting as collecting)
(2)whose contributions must be coordinated (acting as
aligning)
(3)by bending their trajectories (acting as detouring)
(4)and redefining their identities (acting as being)
4 felicity conditions of actions

Individual and collective
and other differences
social structures VS repetition and
variation
Collective tendencies have an existence of
their own they are forces as real as
cosmic forces albeit of another sort they
too affect the individual from without
albeit through other channels The proof
that the reality of collective tendencies is
no less than that of cosmic forces is that
this reality is demonstrated in the same
way namely by the uniformity of effects
Durkheim E (1897) Le Suicide
A social thing [] devolves and passes on not
from the social group collectively to the
individual but rather from one individual [hellip] to
another individual and that in the passage of
one mind into another mind it is refracted The
sum of these refractions from the initial impulse
of an inventor a discoverer an innovator or
modifier [] is the entire reality of a social thing
at a given moment a reality which is constantly
changing just like any other reality through
imperceptible nuances

social structures VS repetition and
variation
Collective tendencies have an existence of
their own they are forces as real as
cosmic forces albeit of another sort they
too affect the individual from without
albeit through other channels The proof
that the reality of collective tendencies is
no less than that of cosmic forces is that
this reality is demonstrated in the same
way namely by the uniformity of effects
Durkheim E (1897) Le Suicide
A social thing [] devolves and passes on not
from the social group collectively to the
individual but rather from one individual [hellip] to
another individual and that in the passage of
one mind into another mind it is refracted The
sum of these refractions from the initial impulse
of an inventor a discoverer an innovator or
modifier [] is the entire reality of a social thing
at a given moment a reality which is constantly
changing just like any other reality through
imperceptible nuances

social structures VS repetition and
variation
Collective tendencies have an existence of
their own they are forces as real as
cosmic forces albeit of another sort they
too affect the individual from without
albeit through other channels The proof
that the reality of collective tendencies is
no less than that of cosmic forces is that
this reality is demonstrated in the same
way namely by the uniformity of effects
Durkheim E (1897) Le Suicide
A social thing [] devolves and passes on not
from the social group collectively to the
individual but rather from one individual [hellip] to
another individual and that in the passage of
one mind into another mind it is refracted The
sum of these refractions from the initial impulse
of an inventor a discoverer an innovator or
modifier [] is the entire reality of a social thing
at a given moment a reality which is constantly
changing just like any other reality through
imperceptible nuances
