My research interests cover issues of governance, accountability and ethics in forms of science, technology and organization. I draw on ideas from ethnomethodology, science and technology studies (in particular forms of radical and reflexive scepticism, constructivism, Actor-Network Theory and the recent STS turn to markets and other forms of organizing) and my research is ethnographic in orientation. In particular I am interested in the question of how entities (objects, values, relationships, processes and also people) become of the world.
My substantive interests are quite varied. Across a number of research projects I have ethnographically engaged with: security and surveillance, traffic management, waste, airports, biometrics, parking, signposts, malaria vaccines, Universities, algorithms and speeding drivers. Through these projects I have looked into ontology, notions of equivalence, parasitism, the mundane, market failures, problems and solutions, deleting, value and the utility of social science.

Assistant Professor and Rosamond Ivey Research Chair in Sustainability Transitions, Carleton University
Daniel Rosenbloom’s research program focuses on realizing transition pathways to more sustainable futures. Over the past decade, he has published widely on the policy and political dimensions of transitions to low-carbon and net-zero emissions energy systems. Currently, he is particularly interested in studying and identifying ways to overcome political resistance to net-zero transitions, tracing the evolution of electrification strategies and processes, and developing decision support frameworks that bring near-term choices into dialogue with long-term net-zero outcomes. In conjunction with his ongoing research, Daniel is seeking to deepen linkages among the Canadian community of scholars studying sustainability transitions with the aim of advancing transitions research and practice domestically.
Daniel is also active within the broader international transition community, where he is an elected member of the Steering Group for the Sustainability Transitions Research Network (STRN). His work with the STRN seeks to strengthen connections between Canadian and international transition communities as well as enhance efforts to mobilize insights from transition research for policy and practice.
Prior to joining the School of Public Policy and Administration, Daniel held policy leadership roles at Environment and Climate Change Canada. In this capacity, he contributed to a number of climate and clean technology files, translating sustainability transition insights for policy impact.

Dan is a third year Ph.D. candidate at the University of Oxford. In his doctoral thesis, ‘Fighting Rust: The Long Economic Crisis and the Rebuilding of the Northeast and Midwest’, Dan explores the political and economic forces that helped transform the Northeast and the Midwest from industrial to post-industrial during the 1970s and 1980s.
Chronicling the efforts that members of the business community, labor unions, community activists and elected officials (local and national) made to help struggling industries and geographic regions negotiate the shifting economic terrain between 1974 and 1988 Dan examines the interlinked histories of urban decline, deindustrialisation, and economic development. By thoroughly examining the political environment of the 1970s and 1980s from a local and regional level Dan hopes to challenge the assumption that the economic success of the 1990s was produced by the limited government and free market policies of the Reagan administration or the ingenuity of individual entrepreneurs.
