Top Ten+ List

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

This article presents a “top ten+ list” of lessons learned from the ontological turn. Across various terms and insistences, the article surveys theories of social change, the subject and agency, the canons constructed, the methodologies materialized, the “more and other than reflexivity” researcher subjectivity endorsed, and the edges of both policy analysis and quantitative research that already instantiate such lessons. It concludes with a meditation on how to think this latest turn within something other than a temporality of successor regimes, end-isms, and apocalyptic breaks.
