Abstract

This article examines the dis/arrangements between scholars and activists in a study among transgender people, addressing the challenges of common work towards scientific production. From an ecology of practices perspective, the analysis illuminates how the negotiations between the actors, instead of a (preliminary) phase of the scientific encounter, continuously generates the conditions of possibility for the knowledge grounded in assemblages of these kinds. This frame suggests the actors’ power, while at the same time highlights the analytical potentialities of such an approach, given its ethical implications throughout the research.
