Riassunto

All that separates us from our premodern ancestors, says Latour (sociology, U. of San Diego and the +cole Nationale SupTrieure des Mines, Paris) is separation itself: our separation of society from nature, of human from thing, of science from culture. These distinctions, he says, are becoming increasingly harder to maintain, especially on ecological issues. Instead of trying, we should give it up. He suggests new ways to think about modernity, and offers an explanation of science that recognizes the connection between nature and culture. First published in French, 1991.
