6. Central to Latour's network theory is the idea of stable, portable data—termed ‘immutable and combinable mobiles’—which provide the links between different places and people. A nuanced interpretation of this concept is the notion of ‘boundary objects’, which are ‘both adaptable to different viewpoints and robust enough to maintain identity across them’—Susan L. Star and James R. Greisemer, ‘Institutional Ecology, “Translations” and Boundary Objects: Amateurs and Professionals in Berkeley's Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, 1907–39’, Social Studies of Science 19 (1989): 387–420.
