Debating pesticides use in the indeterminate world [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Building on the construction of social problems and the civic epistemologies approaches, we look at public participation in the regulation of pesticides as occasions where the public articulates not only different problems or ways to assess knowledge claims on pesticides but also raises ontological interrogations. The case under study is the public hearing on the use of pesticides that took place in New Brunswick in 2021. In this hybrid forum, some of the participants went beyond a single and deterministic view of nature to enact and propose to live in an indeterminate world where pesticides are experienced as relational entities. Such an approach to knowledge and the world promotes environmental policies that, while not consensual, allow for the conservation (rather than elimination) of diverse ontological positions.
