This podcast episode explores Bruno Latour's critique of modernity, which he argues fosters problematic separations between science and politics, culture and nature. Latour emphasizes the need for critical self-awareness and a broader perspective that recognizes the interconnectedness of all things. His actor-network theory proposes that actants, which can be humans, non-humans, or hybrids, form collectives that shape each other's possibilities. Latour challenges the traditional notions of progress and encourages us to acknowledge the shared responsibility we have for the flourishing of all actants in the world.
