Reassembling The Social by Bruno Latour

An Introduction to Actor-Network-Theory

The book explores the concept of the social by challenging traditional sociological approaches and introducing Actor-Network Theory (ANT) as a framework for understanding the complexities of social interactions. It argues that the social is not a distinct domain but is instead woven into the fabric of various associations and networks involving both human and non-human actors. By emphasizing the importance of tracing these connections, the book redefines the notion of social order, urging a shift from focusing on static structures to examining dynamic processes and relationships that constitute the social world.
