Structured Analytics

This question set guides "emic reading" -- close reading of a text on its own terms. It is part of the experimental Ethnographic Methods sketch, Building Literature Reviews. 

This question set focuses on how COVID-19 is unfolding in different places. 

This set of questions will be help focus shared reading of Joel Wainwright and Geoff Mann's Climate Leviathan - bringing together people in overlapping collaborations (focused on environmental governance, Transnational STS, Quotidian Anthropocenes, Visualizing Toxic Places , and COVID-19).

This analytic framework will be used to draw out and compare different articulations of "just transition."  

These questions are designed to help draw out the dynamics of COVID communications in different places.

This question set will help us draw insight from an array of scholarly literatures into the COVID-19 project. 

Questions to direct shared analysis of education and expertise in/and COVID-19. 

This series of ten questions draws out local details in a manner that encourages comparison with other places. Research using the questions is often done quickly (within the constraints of a quarter-long undergraduate class, for example) so is limited to and points to the need for further research and community engagement. The goal is to help build both a body of research on environmental injustice and a network of researchers ready to help conceptualize and implement next-generation environmental protections. 

List of all analytic questions related to the EiJ Global Record Project.

This analytic is intended to provoke thought and inquiry into the historically structured relations of power that enabled the numerous and flagrant environmental injustices perpetuated by and/or for the fossil fuel industry. In particular, the questions foreground the "weight of this history," or the way that these formations continue to haunt contemporary efforts to address and redress these injustices.

Petro-ghosts, however, should not be thought of as products of petro-systems. They are, rather, the structured relations of power that preceded and enabled petro-systems, creating both their conditions of possibility and also of desirability. Thus, while the focus is on fossil fuel-related injustices, the use of the questions in this analytic are not limited to investigations of petro-systems, but rather any articulation of technological, environmental, social, discursive, or mental processes that facilitate, rationalize or otherwise inhibit the redress of environmental injustice.

This is a brief analytic for reading articles and books used by the Energy in COVID-19 group.

This question set can be used to interrogate the dynamics of energy transition at the intersection of nano, bio, and deutero scales. The set can also be used in combination with the Techno-political Ecology, Social Ecology, and Discursive Ecology question sets to better understand "energy transition" as a "focal point of experience." (See Foucault's The Government of Self and Others).

This question set can be used to interrogate the dynamics of energy transition at the intersection of geo, eco/atmo, and techno scales. The set can also be used in combination with the Social Ecology, Discursive Ecology, and Mental Ecology question sets to better understand "energy transition" as a "focal point of experience." (See Foucault's The Government of Self and Others).

These are a set of questions developed for a literature review.

Reading critical work on corporate social responsibility.

My goal is to write a synthetic piece as part of my comprehensive exams. 

This is a general structured analytic for the Quotidian Anthropocene project that can be utilized for annotating Field Campus specific readings.

The Open Seminar will direct collaborative attention to the many scales and types of systems that interlace and synergize to produce anthropocenics on the ground in particular locales and vernanculars. These questions will guide our engagements.

The TRANSnational-STS Covid-19 Project will bring together researchers in the interdisciplinary field of Science and Technology Studies (STS) to follow and analyze COVID-19 as it plays out in different settings.  The project will have digital work space,  share a Zotero bibliography and connect through an email list and Zoom video conferencing.
