My Take On Bruno Latour - Part 1 | S1:E11

  • Summary

  • Bruno Latour was a French anthropologist, philosopher, and sociologist. He was born in 1947 and died at the age of 75 in 2022 in Paris. Latour was considered an iconoclast as he challenged many of the buzzwords we use to guide our actions. He calls these buzzwords ‘factish’ gods which people worship. Latour believes that facts should be developed through a long social process in which objectivity is constructed through negotiations.

    In the first part of this episode, Alain Wegmann makes his synthesis of Latour’s works and illustrates how he worked on the destitution of these “factish gods” and on the restitution of meanings for our society.
