چکیده

This paper seeks to provide an under-pinning theoretical framework for, not only understanding how humanchines (the duality of human and machine artefacts, or the humanchine actor) and their networks come into being, persist and change, but for envisioning and developing them. This will be accomplished by exploring the idea of integrating structuration theory (ST) and actor network theory (ANT). The result is a hybrid theory with which to understand and ultimately underpin research and interventions in the world that encompasses humanchine change (integrations of human and technology) within organisational network ecologies. This hybrid framework is given the working title of the hybrid neologism ‘StructurANTion’.
