 Much of Donna Haraway’s work stresses the importance of asking these questions. In Simians, Cyborgs, and Women: The Reinvention of Nature (1991), Donna Haraway introduces the figure of the cyborg, an “impure” creature who scrambles orderly divisions between the natural and artificial/technical, and the human and the non-human/animal. Continuing her exploration of “ontological confusing bodies” in Modest_Witness@Second_Millennium.FemaleMan©_Meets_  OncoMouse™: Feminism and Technoscience (1997, 186), Haraway speaks as a cyborgian “modest witness” to contemporary technoscience, at once both implicated in and suspicious of its processes and products. Extending her earlier insights into how humans “polish an animal mirror to look for ourselves” (1991, 22), Haraway criticizes the way that science takes nature as a static given, congealing and obscuring social relations such that they can be taken as decontextualized things-in-themselves. (It should be noted, however, that other feminists have taken issue with Haraway’s characterization of science. Mary Magada-Ward (2014) in particular has argued from a pragmatic feminist perspective that Haraway’s willingness to criticize science as one narrative among others is irresponsible, and endangers the very liberatory projects with which feminists are aligned.)
