5.0 out of 5 stars
A must-have...,
By Tomás SC "TSC" (Madrid, Spain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Making Things Public: Atmospheres of Democracy (Hardcover)
This book addresses how can ecology, health, technology, science, markets... be "made public" in order to discuss about who we are and what we are to become, In that sense, it is a must-have for two different publics:
(a) for those interested in pragmatist trends in political thought (e.g. Dewey, Rorty) and its intersections with biopolitics, deliberative, agonistic and participatory democracy. (b) for those interested in understanding and becoming part of the "political turn" in STS. It's only inconvenient resides in the weight and the size of the volume. As a colleague said some time ago: it's a pity you can't read it while being in bed. You can download his whole review (much better than this one) at: http://www.aibr.org/antropologia/44nov/libros/nov0502b.pdf
