Oops? Interdisciplinary Stories of Sociotechnical Error| Oops? Sociotechnical Errors as Interdisciplinary Stories of Complex Relations, Shared Consequences, and Resilient Hopes—Introduction

Introducing a collection of articles tracing sociotechnical errors across varied disciplines, sites of inquiry, and normative stakes, we situate such errors as complex and affectively charged relations between humans and nonhumans. When told as interdisciplinary stories, errors become ways to see how precarious systems are, who has the power to diagnose their breakdowns, and what alternative sociotechnical arrangements may be prompted by centering their breakdown, maintenance, and repair.
