Summary

Bruno Latour: Politics of nature - How to introduce science into democracy

The book Politics of nature is a kind of continuation of Latour's earlier work We have never been modern and the author's first major work on the topic of political ecology. In the book, Latour deconstructs modern contradictions such as nature and society, values and facts in order to show that contemporary ecology and political practice cannot solve current ecological crises precisely because their thinking that remains within these contradictions makes it impossible to design effective action. In order to solve this problem, Latour proposes designing new political institutions that would introduce scientific expertise into the public discussion, but keeping in mind the limitations and nature of scientific practice. Politics of Nature is Latour's fundamental political work that has left the greatest mark on contemporary debates about solving environmental problems.

Bruno Latour (b. 1947) is a French sociologist, anthropologist and philosopher. He is a professor emeritus at the Faculty of Political Sciences in Paris (Sciences Po Paris). He is one of the founders of the discipline of science and technology studies. His works in the field of anthropology and sociology of science have had an exceptional impact on a number of disciplines, and for the last twenty years he has been intensively dealing with issues of ecology and the role of science and industry in ecological crises and global warming, developing an innovative and influential theory of modern society.
