Abstract

Our aim for this special issue of Cultural Studies—Critical Methodologies is to engage with current influential texts in Science Studies, addressing the urgent need to rethink the role of the sciences in transdisciplinary possibilities for social inquiry. In this introductory essay, we underscore the political stakes of this kind of work, and we focus on a few key themes that run across the collected articles, situated as they are within what scientists call the Anthropocene.
