By following the contrasts between four different texts (Comte-Sponville, Kant, Serres et Lovelock), the paper explores what an ‘objective morality’ would look like and how to compare the Kantian axiology with the ANT’s possible definition of an object-oriented-morality.</p> Tue, 06 Dec 2011 06:52:01 +0000 admin 440 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/465 Modes of existence Philosophy <p>Since the project on Modes of Existence has been long in coming and has connection with all the successive field works done by the author, the paper tries to retrace the main steps that have led to the project. It shows that this project precedes the work done in actor-network theory and explains the link between philosophy and anthropology through the peculiar notion of mode of existence.</p> Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:33:21 +0000 admin 465 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/496 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/496" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Modes of existence Religion Studies Modes d'existence Religion <p>Rejoicing – or the torments of religious speech: that is what he wants to talk about, that is what he can’t actually seem to talk about: it’s as though the cat had got his tongue; as though he was spoilt for choice when it comes to words; as though it was impossible to articulate; he can’t actually seem to share what, for so long, he has held so dear to his heart; before his nearest and dearest, he is forced to cover up; he can only stutter; how can he own up to his friends, to his colleagues, his nephews, his students?</p> Mon, 08 Apr 2013 06:37:55 +0000 admin 496 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/513 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/513" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Modes of existence <p><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads/AIME-COVER.jpg" /><br /> The paper book is now on sale in the US.<br /> The digital platform is now fully active (except for the fourth column -contribution- coming soon).<br /> <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads/SITE-09_13_1.jpg" /></p> Tue, 23 Jul 2013 18:33:40 +0000 admin 513 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/540 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/540" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Anthropology Modes of existence <p>As every ethnographer knows, in addition to the many blunders every one of us commits in the course of our fieldwork, there exist also graver mistakes when we sense a mistaken regime of reality granted to an entity. It is at those moments, usually the most revealing in the course of our inquiries, when we try to repair broken relations by some innovative move to define the status of the contrasting realities that have been open to misinterpretation.</p> Sat, 14 Dec 2013 15:40:55 +0000 admin 540 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/550 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/550" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Modes of existence Social Theory <p>I will take capitalism to mean not a thing in the world, but a certain way of being affected when trying to think through this strange mixture of miseries and luxuries we encounter when trying to come to terms with the dizzying interplays of “goods” and “bads”. Capitalism is a concept that has been invented to help absorb this odd mixture of enthusiasm for the cornucopia of riches that has lifted billions of people out of abject poverty and the indignation, rage and fury in response to the miseries visited on billions of other people.</p> Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:31:34 +0000 admin 550 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/553 Modes of existence <p>Christophe Leclercq has prepared <a href="http://vimeo.com/88331742" rel="nofollow">a film</a> going (silently) through most of the features of the AIME platform accessible on modesofexistence.org<br /> If you wish to have the sound you should go to the full presentation shown <a href="http://www.modesofexistence.org/presentation-of-the-aime-project-at-the-copenhagen-business-school-cbs-presentation-du-projet-aime-a-la-copenhagen-business-school-cbs/" rel="nofollow">here</a>.</p> Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:57:25 +0000 admin 553 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/577 Modes of existence <p>The diplomatic encounter between the different tiers of co-inquirers, "chargés d'affaires" and public (including the public present through the video stream) has taken place as scheduled, marking the provisional end of the collective part of the AIME project (the site will continue and the software behind will be entirely rewritten over the next months).

We got an extension from the ERC to redo the software that is behind the site -after many criticisme from users and designers- so that it is made more durable, fast and users's friendly. In the meantime the principle of edited contributions continue as before - we will be slower in answering since the staff is much reduced - and anyway the mass of documents already in line is enough to keep readers busy for quite a while.</p> Tue, 02 Sep 2014 06:39:36 +0000 admin 579 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr
