Synopsis

There is broad acceptance across the Humanities and Social Sciences that our deliberations on the social need to take place through attention to practice, object-mediated relations, non-human agency and the affective dimensions of human sociality. This Companion focuses on the objects and materials found at centre stage, and asks: what matters about objects? Original chapters from over forty international, interdisciplinary contributors address an array of objects and materials to ask what the terms of collaborations with objects and materials are, and to consider how they become integral to our understandings of the complex, relational dynamics that fashion social worlds.
