Zitat von der Website:
“Materialities of Medical Cultures in/between Europe and East Asia” is a 3-year project that brings together the historians and sociologists of medicine in Germany and Taiwan to study materiality as an organizing and explanatory analytic to explore material cultures of healing. We do so via an accommodation between Latourian and cultural perspectives (primarily by taking contingency, change, and stability as historical rather than philosophical markers). Latour established in the 1990s materiality to analyze and show how material participates in the articulation of the social, helping to create categories such as person, machine, immaterial, and, not least, the material itself. Parallel to that material culture studies used materiality as a scholarly space for critiquing and integrating the disciplinary and methodological ferment in the academy. In both fields important work has been done on materiality that, as we argue, has yet to be brought together"
