French sociologist and philosopher, Bruno Latour, is one of the most significant and creative thinkers of the last decades. Bruno Latour: Hybrid Thoughts in a Hybrid World is the first comprehensive and accessible English-language introduction to this multi-faceted work. The book focuses on core Latourian themes: ⢠contribution to science studies (STS â Science, Technology \u0026 Society) ⢠philosophical approach to the rise and fall of modernity ⢠innovative thoughts on politics, nature, and ecology ⢠contribution to the branch of sociology known as ANT â Actor-Network Theory. With ANT, Latour has pioneered an approach to socio-cultural analysis built on the notion that social life arises in complex networks of actants â people, things, ideas, norms, technologies, and so on â influencing each other in dynamic ways. This book explores how Latour helps us make sense of the changing interrelations of science, technology, society, nature, and politics beyond modernity. |
