2nd Call for papers Special Issue of the International Journal on Computer Supported Cooperative Work - The Journal of Collaborative Computing and Work Practices, Springer, London (JCSCW)
JCSCW Special Issue on Infrastructuring and Collaborative Design
Guest edited by Geoffrey C. Bowker, Helena Karasti, and Volkmar Pipek
How infrastructures are designed is a current area of research in a number of fields, including Computer-Supported Cooperative Work, Science and Technology Studies and Information Systems. Although there already are a number of special issues on the topic of Information Infrastructures (JAIS 2009, 2014; JCSCW 2006, 2010) and one to be published on Knowledge Infrastructures (S&TS 2016), this Special Issue is the first one to focus particularly on research that engages with a processual (in-the-making) perspective and/or design-oriented interest towards Information Infrastructures. This approach has been called the study and practice of Œinfrastructuring¹.
It has been pointed out that the emergence of infrastructures is not only a question of ³being designed² in traditional sense, nor is it just ³happening² without some intentionality involved. A growing body of work has started to explore what is actually being done and taking place in infrastructuring in a wide variety of settings; others have proposed suggestions for design methodologies/approaches making room and accounting for infrastructuring as a longitudinal, unfolding process.
Infrastructuring proposes new, original challenges to contemporary CSCW and Information System design in general by, for instance, extending the temporal, organizational, societal scopes and diversifying collaboration arenas from the common use, design and development to tailoring, appropriation, repair, maintenance and standardization, to including professionals from industry, formal organizational structures like standardization bodies and authorities as well as community members and citizens in informal, community-based initiatives.
Topics of the Special Issue include, but are not limited to:
- studies of infrastructuring Œin the wild¹
- theoretical/reflective articles on what the turn from the relational notion of II to the processual one of infrastructuring denotes
- what could be learned from these studies towards developing design methods and approaches for infrastructuring
- examples of participatory/collaborative infrastructuring approaches/methods
- design cases and approaches that push traditional boundaries to involve communities not typically considered in CSCW
- practice-based and practice-initiated design cases and approaches
- cases and theoretical contributions to consolidate and improve design/infrastructuring methods and practices
This Special Issue aims at collecting works that analyze the role of information and communication technologies in these collaborations, develop technological support for these arenas, and improve the methodological basis to analyze and design technologies for and within these arenas. We are interested in those arenas that cross the boundaries between (different) technology development practices and (different) domain practices. We aim to generate a new, practice-based grounding to consolidate design methodologies in a world of infrastructuring activities, and to refine analyses of infrastructuring activities in a world of method-guided technology development projects.
