چکیده انگلیسی
This article contributes to recent discussions about the politics of nature by exploring how Alzheimer's disease is being shaped as a 'matter of concern'. Drawing on work on differences in medicine from science and technology studies, and from the geographies of naturecultures, it explores the 'mattering' of this disease in a number of locations including: an international Alzheimer's patients' movement; a medical textbook; laboratory science; daily care practice; an advertisement for anti-dementia medication; general practice; parliamentary politics; and a conference on dementia. It explores how these locations interfere and co-exist with one another and argues against the 'science centrism' of science and technology studies which contributes to the dominance of science and medicine by granting these analytical privilege. The same problem is posed in the recent STS turn from science to politics - the danger is that politics is similarly privileged.
