The visitor knows, the visited believes; or quite the opposite, the visitor knew, the visited makes him understand that he only thought he knew. Let us apply this principle to the case of the Moderns. Everywhere they drop anchor they soon put up fetishes, that is to say that in all the peoples they encounter, they see worshippers of objects that are nothing.</p> Fri, 24 Jun 2011 13:26:16 +0000 admin1 4 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/48 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/48" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Compositionism Ecology & Political Ecology Gabriel Tarde <p>Supposons que Karl Marx ait publié LE CAPITAL et que personne n’y ait prêté attention. Un siècle après on redécouvrirait ce livre et l’on resterait stupéfait devant l’ampleur et l’audace d’une œuvre isolée, incomprise, sans effets scientifiques, politiques, sociaux ; une œuvre que n’auraient développée ni disciple, ni exégèse, que ne serait venu transformer aucun essai plus ou moins malencontreux d’application. Comme l’histoire du 20° siècle aurait été différente si le bréviaire des hommes d’action eût été le livre de Tarde, PSYCHOLOGIE ÉCONOMIQUE, paru en 1902, au lieu de celui de Marx !</p> Thu, 01 Sep 2011 09:04:27 +0000 admin1 48 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/64 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/64" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Art History Compositionism Religion Studies Viualization <p>Iconoclasm is when there is a clear intent for the destruction or the demise of an image. Iconoclash is when there is an uncertainty about what is committed when an image –from science, religion or art- is being smashed. The paper presents the rationale and the scene of an exhibit taking place in Germany and which aims at turning iconoclasm –and more generally the critical gesture- into a topic rather than a ressource. It contrasts the different pattern of confidence and diffidence into image in the three contrasted realm of science, religion and art.</p> Mon, 12 Sep 2011 12:20:09 +0000 admin 64 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/140 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/140" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Compositionism Semiotics & Literature Studies <p>In this paper, written in the outmoded style of a “manifesto”, an attempt is made to use the word “composition” as an alternative to critique and “compositionism” as an alternative to modernism. The idea is that once the two organizing principles of nature and society are gone, one of the remaining solutions is to “compose” the common world.</p> Mon, 03 Oct 2011 09:09:17 +0000 admin 140 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/165 Compositionism Politics <p>The critical spirit might have turned empty as long as there is no alternative to the first empiricism -that of matter of fact: doubting of matters of fact can only mean getting away from the possibility of providing a proof. Things are different if a second empiricism is argued for, one that deals not with matters of fact but with matters of concern. Then, it might be possible to provide public proofs even though facts are no longer indisputable.</p> Tue, 04 Oct 2011 14:10:05 +0000 admin 165 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/166 Compositionism Epistemology <p>Constructivism is a much abused word. But since Ian Hacking has done a review of some of his meanings, an effort is made to see how it can be rescued from the disrepute of ‘social’ constructivism. Special stress is put on the metaphors of construction and on the models of action implied by its different meanings. An alternative is offered to the classification offered by Hacking and a strong contrast is established between constrcution and deconstruction</p> Tue, 04 Oct 2011 14:25:56 +0000 admin 166 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/248 Compositionism <p>Prepared in honor of Donna Haraway, this dialog explores why the notion of critique implies an increase in proximity and not in distance.</p> Sat, 08 Oct 2011 10:33:43 +0000 admin 248 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/269 Compositionism <p>The Neale Wheeler Watson Lecture 2010, given by Professor Bruno Latour: "May Nature Be Recomposed?
