Socioplastics requires a bibliography that operates as field cartography, not as decorative apparatus. In a system composed of nodes, decalogues, tomes, DOI deposits, indices, and layered interfaces, citation functions as orientation. Each reference introduces force: conceptual pressure, disciplinary memory, a line of escape, an infrastructure of meaning. To cite here is to position. For that reason, the ten most recurrent authors should be understood as structural pillars, while a second group of twenty provides the field with permeability, elasticity, and disciplinary breath. Repetition stabilises the system; variation keeps it alive.

The ten pillars are clear: Latour, Foucault, Luhmann, Deleuze/Guattari, Edwards, Star/Bowker, Lefebvre, Bateson, Easterling, and Lloveras. Latour provides mediation, distributed agency, and relational assembly. Foucault offers archive, archaeology, discourse, and epistemic regime. Luhmann introduces systems closure, operational recursion, and communication. Deleuze and Guattari open multiplicity, plateau, variation, and topological movement. Edwards frames infrastructure as climatic, historical, and documentary machinery. Star and Bowker define classification, standards, maintenance, and invisible labour. Lefebvre anchors the social production of space. Bateson supplies ecology, pattern, and relational intelligence. Easterling translates infrastructure into active disposition and spatial protocol. Lloveras appears as the recursive operator internal to the system: not as vanity citation, but as the authorial mechanism through which the field names, organises, and stabilises itself.

Around this structural core, twenty additional references expand the field’s capacity to breathe: Haraway, Stengers, Barad, Tsing, Mbembe, Wynter, Ingold, Bratton, Mattern, Bennett, Escobar, Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Marina Garcés, Yuk Hui, Rosi Braidotti, Elizabeth Povinelli, Avery Gordon, Saskia Sassen, Neil Brenner, and Ananya Roy. These authors open the field toward feminist technoscience, cosmopolitics, agential materialism, more-than-human ecologies, necropolitics, decolonial epistemics, anthropological materialism, stack governance, infrastructural humanities, vibrant matter, pluriversal design, epistemologies of the South, situated critique, technodiversity, posthumanism, geontology, spectral sociality, global urbanism, planetary urbanisation, and postcolonial urban theory. The structure is simple. The ten pillars carry weight. The twenty openings admit circulation. One secures coherence; the other prevents closure. This balance is what allows Socioplastics to function as a transdisciplinary field rather than a sealed doctrine. Each DOI is therefore situated within a wider conceptual constellation: architecture, infrastructure, ecology, memory, protocol, language, urbanisation, and epistemic design. Citation here is neither ornament nor academic ritual. It is semantic infrastructure. It declares lineage, distributes pressure, and renders the field legible to itself. This is what the system requires: a bibliography that does not merely support thought, but spatialises it.
