Contribution short abstract:

In this workshop, I want to reflect on the limits of collaborative research specifically interrogating the problem of shared consensus in collaborative research.

Contribution long abstract:

I am an anthropologist/sociologist who works in interdisciplinary teams on questions of sustainability and responsible technological and policy design. I've written several auto-ethnographic accounts of different research projects to document how conflict or differences emerge across disciplinary and political positions. I am invested in exploring how difference and dissent work in large interdisciplinary projects, and how it affects knowledge production and collaboration. I would like to bring some of these concerns to the workshop to understand how others make sense of these dilemmas that emerge in large interdisciplinary projects.
