ABSTRACT This brief essay uses Pandurang Khankhoje, an Indian scientist and political refugee in Mexico, as an example of the value of using a largo dislocare approach to write histories of science. Largo dislocare is an invitation to dislocate known histories not just geographically but also chronologically to better understand the motion of people, ideas and objects. By examining the largo (long) trajectory of science in spaces that do not conform to traditional history of science markers we acknowledge that our established chronologies are in need of expansion. For the where with which we begin these histories is as essential as when we begin them. In addition, this approach challenges us to consciously and constantly search for evidence to write about how those on the fringes of society – migrants, refugees, members of ostracized ethnic groups, etc. – in the so-called global margins produce science.

Largo dislocare:将微观历史与重新映射和更新的科学历史联系起来

摘要 这篇简短的文章以印度科学家和墨西哥政治难民 Pandurang Khankhoje 为例,说明了使用 largo dislocare 方法编写科学史的价值。Largo dislocare 邀请不仅在地理上而且按时间顺序错位已知历史,以更好地理解人、思想和物体的运动。通过在不符合传统科学史标记的空间中检查科学的大(长)轨迹,我们承认我们既定的年表需要扩展。因为我们从何处开始这些历史与我们何时开始它们一样重要。此外,这种方法要求我们有意识地不断地寻找证据来描述处于社会边缘的人——移民、难民、被排斥种族群体的成员,
