Beskrivelse

The aim of this lecture is
• to sketch a retrospective interpretation of Bruno Latour’s oeuvre with an ‘assemblage point’ in the ontological distinction – occurring late in his work (AIME) – between Substance and subsistence
• to indicate what this means for his understanding of actor-network-theory, the social sciences, the notion of Gaia and ecological class struggle
