- General Network Info
The unprecedented attendance of many scholars from the Global South at the 2020 BSHS festival, as well as the discussions on the meaning of the Black Lives Matter movement in academic structures, gives us reasons both to celebrate and to reflect. What is the future of the field, increasingly concerned as it is with questions of decolonization; and what role can we, as scholars of colour, play? We run regular networking events aimed at BIPoC/BAME colleagues in History and Philosophy of Science, Science and Technology Studies, and related disciplines, and will provide a safe space to debate current directions, obstacles and opportunities in the field. We meet three to four times a year. The summer meeting will always take place as part of the BSHS annual meeting. Meetings will be announced on the Website, the Mersenne List and Social Media.
