ABSTRACT
The response revolves around boundaries of academic disciplines, knowledge production, care, and the creation of we-they and otherness. The dominant knowledge system in disciplines is contested through a discussion of the separation of use and production of technology/science. Researchers’ entanglement and how this makes sense in the research process is also highlighted. In the portrayal of old and young engineers a “we”, “they”, and “otherness” are constituted without a reflection. Care and thinking-with care are introduced to extend the discussion of care. In the end it is recommended to be more focused in choices of aim, theoretical framework, and method.
