The division within criminology of science and society, nature and culture, and beings and things has closed off the very real possibility that the most effective explanations and understandings of crime and control arise at the interstices. The divisions used in criminology have had an effect in involving an assumption about the orientation of the human world and the object-world towards each other. The complexities of contemporary technological culture demand the dissolution or closure of dual oppositions and human/technical splitting in the apprehension of the phenomenon of crime. The possibilities of actor-network theory are considered in relation to crime and law. The need for a criminology of hybrids that is concerned with the mapping of technosocial networks is suggested.
