Cultivated co-production: Sexual health, human rights, and the revision of the ICD

Abstract: STS scholars frequently have shown how science and sociopolitical arrangements are ‘co-produced’, typically tracing how scientific actors themselves keep ‘science’ and ‘politics’ far apart. Revealing co-production is therefore deemed the work of the STS analyst, who unearths linkages that the actors might be unaware of, or might ignore or deny. By contrast, the creation of a new chapter on ‘sexual health’ in the recent revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) offers a case of what might b… Show more

“…In aligning methodological considerations with broader debate about the social circumstances which reproduce disability, this article questions the extent QoL represents disablement when conducting evaluative research. It highlights how cultivated coproduction (Epstein, 2021) in which a constitutive link between research activity and socio‐political arrangements define conventions that give interpretative meaning to QoL. Consequently, QoL measures reproduce and constitute social life as much as they offer an analysis of it.…”

“…Classification reflects prevailing power relationships that serve to shape the moral and social order (Foucault, 1970). By representing a series of interconnected technical, social, and economic decisions (Bowker & Star, 1999) under the guise of an authoritative and normative objectivity, a definition of disability is generated in which the “politics” has been “scrubbed away” (Epstein, 2021, p. 659). Boundaries are established (and policed) as QoL scores become indistinguishable from the concept with which they are associated.…”

“…Jasanoff and colleagues develop the notion of co-production in an attempt to explore how knowledge-making is incorporated into practices of governance, and how practices of governance influence the making and use of knowledge (Jasanoff, 2004). STS scholars have applied this theory to show how science and sociopolitical arrangements are co-produced, unearthing links of which the actors themselves may be unaware, or may ignore or even deny (Epstein, 2021). The co-production framework generally focuses on interactions between science and its sociopolitical settings: Natural and social orders are produced together.…”
