Assessing irreversibility of an E-Government project in Kenya: Implication for governance

This paper offers an exploratory analysis into the relationship between E-Government conceptualization and its intended impacts. By combining three independent research streams of technology transfer, information technology conceptualization and impacts, the expected national impacts of E-Government were theorized to influence how policy makers and implementers in developing countries conceptualize E-Government. The paper utilizes a qualitative research approach that is underpinned by critical realist assumptions. Actor–Network Theory was used as the meta-theory for the analysis. The findings point to a thinly-veiled control agenda by the Central Government bid to extend their control over local authorities through E-Government. The process of building an E-Government infrastructure is unfolding in an environment in which local actors' interests are weakly inscribed, while interests of the global actors are strongly inscribed. The overall implication is a trend in which the Central Government is enhancing bureaucratization through managerialization.     

行动者网络理论:教育研究的新视界

奠基于事物为本哲学的行动者网络理论在过去的三十年间被广泛应用于社会科学领域,并对以非还原论实质观为核心的关系本体论、以认识论同等效力原理为旨趣的政治认识论、以"行动者网络"为基础的社会科学方法论的形成与开创创造了条件。行动者网络理论主要由"行动者"、"转译"、"网络"和"网络效应"等核心概念所组成,作为一种新的认识论视角和复杂对象的理论分析方法,它撼动了教育研究之还原论基石,使其直面教育实践;重构已有的教育学基本概念,还抽象符号以本真;去教育学的人类与社会中心化,拓展新的研究域;最终发展起具体的描述分析方法,跟随行动者重组教育。     

基于“行动者网络理论”的中国生物制药产业技术的演化和治理研究

中国生物制药产业技术在过去30年中经历了快速的发展,这为研究生物制药产业技术的演化和治理机制提供了良好契机。本文首先依据生物制药产业技术的市场价值创造和社会价值创造两个维度,将自1978年以来的中国生物制药产业技术演化划分为三个阶段,并对其存在的问题加以简要分析。其次,以行动者网络理论(ANT)作为基本分析工具,进一步探讨中国生物制药产业技术网络的运行机制及其治理模式。最后,作者据此为中国生物制药产业技术提出相关的政策建议。

Building a Network for Preserving Intangible Cultural Heritage through Education: A Study of Indonesian Batik

This study aims to discuss a strategy to preserve intangible cultural heritage in education and to deliberate on the batik network in Pekalongan, Indonesia. To investigate the network, this study adopted a framework based on the actor–network theory (ANT). The research data was obtained through observation, interviews and document analysis. Interviews were conducted with eight interviewees who are working professionals in batik. The study achieved the following results: 1. Cultural heritage education needs to connect with the needs of everyday life within the context of the current situation and the social environment. 2. A successful cultural heritage educational network must include the efforts of industry, government, schools, museums and research institutions so that everyone can derive maximum benefit from the network and achieve a sense of accomplishment. 3. Attentiveness to conscious cultural heritage contributes to the promotion of education. Batik knowledge is built by interactions between batik workers, batik, batik museums, school teachers, and workshops or classes, such as student work in schools.

An improved SAO network-based method for technology trend analysis: A case study of graphene

This paper proposes an improved Subject-Action-Object (SAO) network-based method for analyzing trends in technology development. It attempts to address shortcomings of the traditional SAO network approach, i.e., when setting Subject, Action and Object as nodes of the network, there may be errors in explaining the relationship between Subject Node and Object Node, and the strength of the relationship between subject and object also cannot be identified. The proposed improved SAO network-based method in this paper includes: (1) a new method for constructing an SAO network based on SAO links that calculate the intensity of the relationship between nodes; (2) a model for identifying technology development trends based on structural holes, changes in the distribution of node degrees, and shifts in network centrality. An empirical study on graphene technology is used to illustrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed method.     

Politics by other means? STS and research in education

ABSTRACT

Science and Technology Studies (STS) has been surprisingly slow to become widely known and deployed in the field of education. Yet STS has a rich array of concepts and analytical methods to offer to studies of: knowledge practices and epistemic cultures; the interrelationship between states and knowledge; regulatory practices, governance and institutions; and classrooms, pedagogy, teaching and learning. Most importantly, it provides a fresh perspective on how power operates in ordering societies, disciplining actors and promoting ideas and practices. In this paper, we provide an introduction to STS and elaborate what it offers education scholars. Using examples from the emerging body of STS work in the field of education, and in particular from the papers in this special issue, we argue that STS is not only useful, but an exciting and generative form of critique – one that is especially suited to investigating contemporary issues in education policies and practices.
