In this interview, Claudia Aradau discusses questions of technology and agency in international politics vis-à-vis her own work on materiality, Big Data, security, and the division of labor between humans and machines. She pays particular attention to encounters between Science and Technology Studies (STS) and International Relations (IR), understandings of politics and critique at the intersection of different approaches to studying technology and agency, and to the ramifications and ways around secrecy.
