“…33 This line of critique against a constructivist framework is also found in ATR 17:2-3-12 REGULATION AND TRANSFORMATION general shifts within feminist theory that start to consider matter, practice and doing, rather than privileging an interpretative framework. 34 This paper asks: what if we build on the work of Butler and the lessons learned from a constructivist way of thinking, instead of dismissing it out of hand?…”

“…This distinctive ontology has been described as 'flat' or 'monist' (rather than 'dualist'), rejecting differences not only between historical materialism's economic 'base' and cultural 'superstructure' (Marx, 1971) but also between 'natural' and 'cultural' realms, human and non-human, and -perhaps most significantly -between mind and matter (van der Tuin & Dolphijn, 2010). A flat ontology also marks a re-focusing of attention upon 'events': the endless cascade of material interactions of both nature and culture that together produce the world and human history, rather than upon structural or systemic 'explanations' of how societies and cultures work (Latour, 2005, p. 130).…”

We assess the potential for mixing social research methods, based upon a materialist and micropolitical analysis of the research-assemblage and of what individual research techniques and methods do in practice. Applying a DeleuzoGuattarian toolkit of assemblages, affects and capacities, we document what happens when research methods and techniques interact with the events they wish to study. Micropolitically, many of these techniques and methods have unintended effects of specifying and aggregating events, with the consequently that the knowledge produced by social inquiry is invested with these specifications and aggregations. We argue that rather than abandoning these social research tools, we may use the micropolitical analysis to assess precisely how each method affects knowledge production, and engineer the research designs we use accordingly. This forms the justification for mixing methods that are highly aggregative or specifying with those that are less so, effectively rehabilitating methods that have often been rejected by social researchers, including surveys and experiments.

“…Similarly, riding the critical-creative wave of reclaiming the agential materiality of "embodied-embedded" (Braidotti, 2011) (Hartsock, 1987), arguing, with Van der Tuin and Dolphijn (2010;2011), that theorizing is "always already" a material-discursive ongoing practice. Moreover, acknowledging the material processes of theorizing is not only relevant when it comes to "onto-epistemological" accountability (Barad, 2003), but also is a task that carries with it ethico-political implications insomuch as, only by virtue of acknowledging how theorizing does matter, the inner transformative potential of new feminist materialism becomes possible.…”

ResumenMás allá de afirmar la teoría como proyecto abstracto, incorpóreo y consciente, que se define en oposición a una materia demasiado corpórea, pasiva (y feminizada), según filósofas materialistas postestructuralistas y feministas como Irigaray, Rich, Cavarero o Braidotti, la teorización se ha reformulado como un proceso en el que se invoca la corporeidad del sujeto pensante -entre otros factores-para replantearse, al mismo tiempo, qué significa teorizar y qué significa existir como sujeto corpóreo. De manera similar, y apuntándose a la tendencia crítica y creativa de reclamar la materialidad agencial de los procesos de pensamiento «en-carnado e incardinado» (Braidotti, 2011), la pregunta que sigue resultando crucial para las conversaciones del nuevo materialismo feminista es « ¿Cómo se materializa la teorización?» y « ¿Cómo importa?» (considerando los dos sentidos de matter como «materia» e «importar»). Al interpretar los movimientos feministas postestructuralistas de manera afirmativa, este texto pretende enfatizar la relevancia de ir más allá de la costumbre filosófica que constituye el pensamiento incorpóreo «desde ninguna parte», es decir, planteado desde una «masculinidad abstracta» (Hartsock, 1987) o neutra, dado que, junto con Van der Tuin y Dolphijn (2010, 2011) se argumenta que la teorización «ya es siempre» una práctica material y discursiva continuada. Es más, reconocer los procesos materiales de la teorización no solo resulta relevante en lo referente a la responsabilidad «onto-epistemológica» (Barad, 2003), sino que además es una tarea con implicaciones éticas y políticas, en tanto que solo reconociendo cómo se materializa e importa la teorización se plantea el posible potencial transformador interno del nuevo materialismo 18
