In a Science, Technology and Society (STS) study, where the disciplinary boundaries of International Politics, Sociology, Political and Cultural Geographies, Political Ecology blur, Anup Sam Ninan is pursuing his doctoral project on the discourse of sustainability in the international climate change regime. Looked at from an Actor-Network Theory (ANT) perspective, the project follows the object Carbon in different locations of performance and the web of interrelations within which it is situated.

Currently a Fellow at the Bremen International Graduate School of Social Sciences (BIGSSS) in the interdisciplinary 'Field' of 'Global Integration', Anup did his M.Phil in Science Policy Studies and M.A. in Sociology from New Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). As a former Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies on Science, Technology and Society (IAS-STS), Graz, he did an independent project on Sustainability – Development – Technology interfaces. His research interests include political and social construction of climate change; discourses on environment, development and sustainability; science and technology studies; architecture.
