Primes¶
- Translation and Conceptual Bridging
- Each domain shows that direct transfer fails, but structured translation—identifying invariants, accepting loss, making strategic choices—can preserve essence across framework boundaries, a chain Latour (1987) describes as the work of enrolling allies and translating interests in scientific networks.
This sourceDevelops "translation chains" linking laboratory practice, organizational interests, and scientific networks; demonstrates how the same translation-of-interests logic transfers across linguistic, organizational, and scientific contexts.
