An Arendtian dialogue on genomics: Opening political spaces through interdisciplinary connexions

This work recounts the importance, pleasure and challenges of constructing a multi-voiced dialogue on shared and collective concerns, using the example of a dialogue between Management and Organization Studies (MOS), Natural Sciences, and Law on the impact of genomics on our lives. Inspired by Arendt’s theorization of dialogue, we call for the need to recognize and question the epistemological binary that opposes truth to opinion. We also acknowledge the potential of each discipline, through inter/intra-disciplinarity dialogue, to recognize the world as inherently shared and to develop awareness of the implications of genomics in its application.
