- Geoffrey C. Bowker is Professor of Informatics at the University of California, Irvine. He moved to UCI at the start of 2012, having held the positions of Professor and Senior Scholar in Cyberscholarship at the . Prior to that, Bowker was Executive Director and Regis and Dianne McKenna Professor at the Center for Science, Technology and Society at Santa Clara University. Previously, Bowker was chair of the Department of Communication at the University of California - San Diego and has held appointments at theUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. With his late partner Susan Leigh Star, he has devoted much of his career to examining the values embedded within sociotechnical infrastructures such as databases, visualization strategies, and science and engineering standards. "To classify is human," as it says in their mutual work, meaning that it's a human instinct to classify things. With Helen Nissenbaum, he founded the NSF funded Values in Design network to bring together scholars examining these issues across broader sites of study and across disciplines. (en)
- Geoffrey C. Bowker ou Geof est un sociologue des sciences et technologies travaillant aux États-Unis. Il est chercheur en Science and technology studies à la School of Information Sciences de l'Université de Pittsburg, après avoir été le directeur du Center for Science, Technology and Society (CSTS) de l'université de Santa Clara. Ses travaux portent, en particulier, sur le développement des « cyberinfrastructures » des sciences. Il s'intéresse également à l'histoire de la géologie au XIXe siècle, à la cybernétique et aux sciences de l'environnement. Ses dernières recherches portent sur l'informatique de la biodiversité, s'interrogeant sur la manière dont les scientifiques (appartenant aux nombreux domaines qui participent au phénomène de la biodiversité) parviennent à communiquer entre eux, et comment les pratiques et la structure des données affectent ce processus. Bowker a travaillé notamment en contribution avec Susan Leigh Star. Sa démarche s'apparente à celle de la théorie de l'acteur-réseau[réf. nécessaire]. (fr)
