When: | Mo 13-03-2023 13:00 - 17:00 |
Where: | Collaboratories, Harmonie building |
Bruno Latour has left behind a huge oeuvre with significant influence on various academic disciplines including history.
This workshop examines his work in its relevance for the way we think about the past in relation to the present and the future. The goal is to exchange our views on Latour but also to discuss where we see a need to move beyond Latour or disagree altogether.
