“…Considering its growing importance within scientific and technological development, it is necessary to recontextualize collaboration at international and interdisciplinary levels (Bruce et al, 2004). Likewise, an approach that does not restrict collaboration to the work of its professionals, incorporating the mediation of nonhuman entities, such as technologies (Callon et al, 1986), the constitution of epistemic communities (Haas, 1980) and methodological experimentation epistemic (Estalella and S anchez Criado, 2018), would complicate and enrich the understanding of the phenomenon.…”

PurposeIn this article, the authors explore the emotional dimension of the strategies that researchers carry out to foster collaboration within research groups in science.Design/methodology/approachThe authors have carried out fieldwork based on semi-structured interviews with members of high-performance research groups, supported by the analysis of ethnographic observations in the local work contexts of several of these groups.FindingsAs a result, the authors start from the representations of the principal investigators interviewed about collaboration, as a dynamic between the individuals involved and the group, to describe two forms of leadership strategies: ego-centered or group. Hence, the authors highlight that the emotional work of IPs consists of combining both strategies by activating and deactivating affection, warmth and spontaneity in interactions. The authors conclude by reviewing the contributions and some potential lines of study.Research limitations/implicationsThe main contributions and conclusions must be regarded considering several limitations of our work. First, the authors have focused on high-performance groups, so it would be expected that the research groups that do not have the support of European Research Council (ERC) do not present the observed dynamics. Concerning the analysis, the authors have focused on the link between situational (personal interaction) and organizational scales. Although the authors have attended social factors that imply the structure and changes of the professional sector of science (Whitley, 2000, 2014), future publications will allow the authors to delve into relationships on a broader scale, associating collaboration patterns and discursive positions. The authors will focus on (1) roles and social profiles and (2) features of scientific culture and its recent configuration.Practical implicationsThe authors affirm that the emotional field is key to understanding how groups and individuals respond to these profound changes. In their work, scientific professionals do not only act based on rational and instrumental criteria but also driven by habits, affective networks and inertia of their organizational cultures. In this paper, the authors provide theoretical and practical keys to understand the complexity that collaboration creates within research groups as a contradictory reality that consists of a constant movement of individuals and the group.Social implicationsAs many of the interviewees expressed, there are no adequate spaces to learn and reflect on leadership and collaboration in science. The authors are science workers who are responsible for imagining and deciding how the authors want their research groups to function. Institutions must ensure the means so that this task can be carried out. Hopefully, this article will contribute to this irrevocable project.Originality/valueThe authors’ aim is to understand how well-known groups operate in their field, with a high level of resources and productivity, in order to identify and promote cutting-edge strategies in different scientific branches. Moreover, the authors want to recognize the importance of institutional infrastructures. For this reason, giving them a place in the framework of management studies allows to submit this issue to public debate for a wide audience of social scientists. Moreover, this permits to inquire about cross-disciplinary subjects, such as social and organizational psychology, sociology of work, studies about science and management studies.

“…I undersøgelserne og forskningsprojektet, som danner empiriske afsaet for denne artikel, har jeg, inspireret af eksperimenterende og kortvarige etnografier (Estalella & Criado, 2018;Pink & Morgan, 2013), samarbejdet med undervisere fra pae-dagog-og laereruddannelsen om at problematisere tvaerprofessionel uddannelse og legende laereprocesser heri. Formålet var at udvikle, afprøve og evaluere didaktiske design og legeeksperimenter i flere iterationer.…”

Denne artikels formål er at undersøge og diskutere legende samarbejde i tværprofessionel uddannelse – og hvilke muligheder, udfordringer og implikationer det har at udvikle og praktisere tværprofessionel uddannelse med legende pædagogik og didaktik. Artiklen er metodologisk informeret af designbaseret forskning og baseret på empirisk materiale fra studerendes refleksionstekster, interviews med undervisere og observationer fra legende interventioner ved pædagog‐ og læreruddannelsen. I artiklen udfoldes to analytiske temaer om 1) kommunikative strategier og håndteringer af forskelle samt 2) kollaborative muligheder og begrænsninger i udforskninger af relationer og forskellighed. Analyserne viser, at studerende i legende og tværprofessionelt samarbejde mellem uddannelser oplever at udvikle kommunikative strategier, nærværende og relationelle deltagelsesformer samt at skabe perspektiver til at udforske og forstå hinandens forskellighed. Analyserne viser endvidere, at det er didaktisk meningsfuldt, når en pointe med tværprofessionel uddannelse er at forberede til en tværprofessionel praksis præget af faglig og professionel forskellighed og kompleksitet. Endelig viser analyserne, at samarbejdet ikke er uden udfordringer, når forforståelser og stereotyper sættes i spil. Til sidst i artiklen diskuteres muligheder og implikationer for legende tværprofessionelle uddannelsesformer, som perspektiveres til en relationel pædagogik.

“…FLORA MARY BARTLETT I got the idea from a YouTube video by Justin Quinnell (2012), in which the photographer shows students how to make pinhole cameras from soda cans. Doing this as fieldwork, I thought, could be a way to explore new modalities, following Ethiraj Gabriel Dattatreyan and Isaac Marrero-Guillamón's call to utilize media in inventive rather than descriptive ways to "generate relations" (2019, 220; see also Estalella and Sánchez Criado 2018). Amanda Ravetz, Anna Grimshaw, and Elspeth Owen have also proposed an "open ended" experimental approach to visual anthropology, in which they call for scholars to "try things out even though they might seem awkward, or puzzling" (2013,150).…”
