assemblage theory
A philosophical approach for studying the ontological diversity of agency, which means redistributing the capacity to act from an individual to a socio-material network of people, things, and narratives. Also known as _assemblage theory_ or _assemblage thinking_, this philosophical approach frames social complexity through fluidity, exchangeability, and their connectivity.
