Contents:

Introduction: Truth politics and power politics -- In search of a Latourian political philosophy -- Early Latour: A Hannibal of actants -- Middle Latour: The Parliament of things -- Late Latour: Politics as a mode -- "Usefully pilloried": Latour's left flank -- "An interesting reactionary": Latour's right flank -- "A Copernican revolution": Lippmann, Dewey, and object-oriented politics -- Concluding remarks.

Summary: Bruno Latour, the French sociologist, anthropologist and long-established superstar in the social sciences is revisited in this pioneering account of his ever-evolving political philosophy. Breaking from the traditional focus on his metaphysics, most recently seen in Harman's book Prince of Networks, the author instead begins with the Hobbesian and even Machiavellian underpinnings of Latour'ss early period encountering his shift towards Carl Schmitt then finishing with his final development into the Lippmann / Dewey debate.--Provided by publisher.
