Since the 1980s the concept of ANT has remained unsettled. ANT has continuously been critiqued and hailed, ridiculed and praised. It is still an open question whether ANT should be considered a theory or a method or whether ANT is better understood as entailing the dissolution of such modem genres. In this paper the authors engage with some important reflections by John Law and Bruno Latour in order to analyze what it means to do ANT, and (even worse), doing so after doing ANT on ANT. In particular the authors examine two post-ANT case studies by Annemarie Mol and Marilyn Strathern and outline the notions of complexity, multiplicity, and fractality. The purpose is to illustrate the analytical consequences of thinking with post-ANT. The analysis offers insights into how it is possible to go beyond ANT, without leaving it entirely behind.
