Abstract

The boundary line drawn between Media Studies and STS has often overlapped with the alleged opposition between discourse and materiality. Recovering the concepts of “delegation” and “script” introduced by Actor-Network Theory and semiotics, this paper proposes a methodological approach to deal with information and communication technologies (ICT) that does not assume an a priori distinction between material and discursive objects. By so doing, it is nonetheless able to account for apparently different phenomena that entail similar governance and organizational outputs.
