[en] This chapter seeks to show the value of a relational, practice-oriented approach – what in STS vocabulary is called ‘unpacking black boxes’, or doing a sociology ‘of assemblages’. The chapter examines how this approach can shed light on the hybrid mobilizations of innovators, consumers, users and entrepreneurs – alongside their creations and cultures – that have made the Web the complex socio-technical system it is today.
