Thanks Kelly. I have another question that you and others might be able to answer.
In a seminar at York last week, reference was made to "actor network theory". Googling the phrase connects it to post-structuralism (the main person associated with the ideas involved seemed to be Latour). In the seminar, a local person at the University of Toronto, Joel Baum, was identified as the author of an edited collection setting out the basis of the approach. When I went to his website (<http://www.rotman.utoronto.ca/~baum/> I found that that his work is based in "game theory" and "complexity theory".
What is "actor network theory" and what, if any, are its connections to post-structuralism, "game theory" and "complexity theory"?
