The Coronavirus as Nature-Culture
Talking about Agency
Annette Schnabel and Bettina Ülpenich
Abstract
We analyze how the coronavirus is fabricated at the interface between science and the public in order to be addressable by political strategies. By means of a content analysis of Christian Drosten's podcasts, we follow (1) how SARS-CoV-2 is constructed in order to be understood by non-scientists, (2) how the specialist becomes a public expert, and (3) how this co-fabrication takes place. This provides insight into the “fabrication” of meaning and of how uncertainty is transformed into knowledge during times of major risk through focusing on the perception of the virus itself. Out of a perspective of speech act theory-informed assemblage thinking, the analysis emphasizes the role of the known-unknown and of the temporality of developments in formatting both virus and expert.

Building up the collective
A critical assessment of the relationship between indigenous organisations and international cooperation in the Paraguayan Chaco
Valentina Bonifacio
In this article I aim at questioning the modalities through which international cooperation is promoting the creation of indigenous organisations in Paraguay by reinforcing specific notions of what is political and what is not, and in particular by abiding by the nature‐culture divide. In particular, I argue that it ends up ignoring a variety of indigenous political practices by labelling them as ‘religious’ or not recognising them at all.
