Thank you! Will read. I read his book “The information” some years ago and it influenced me greatly.

For years I did not know what discipline my thesis belongs to. I figured out late that my methods are used mainly from transportation scholars but in my view they can be used for many other problems.

In academia it is. It took me around two years to figure out that this was uncommon.
I guess it happened bc I had years of work behind me where I just tried to do that. I thought that we all try to solve things and we throw at them all our ideas, tools, etc

For me the boundaries between disciplines are permeable and even more I find it fascinating to figure out how others frame problems or go around solving them.

In this case it tells a lot about how academia works but I was clueless. I started my inquiry with the probl I wanted to solve. This is v uncommon. People often start w the literature & methods of a discipline. You are examined for contribution to a discipline => can’t escape the classification

i made a template you can use to think about what "frame/negation/kirby" looks like for other issues.
For example:

Frame: DOGE is a govt efficiency project to save $

Negation: Actually it made things less efficient and cost $

Kirby: DOGE was a project to break and privatize federal bureaucracy
