Czy Teoria Aktora-Sieci daje narzędzia do ekokrytyki?
Does Actor-Network Theory Offer Conceptual Tools for Ecocritisicm?

Summary/Abstract: Abriszewski asks whether Bruno Latour’s longtime theoretical project offers or is able to offer a viable conceptual tool for ecocriticism. By this he means any concepts and ideas for the critical analysis of social and cultural reality in the context of environmental problems. The analysis follows three paths: 1. Latour’s famous claim that we have never been modern; 2. The theoretical position elaborated in Latour’s Facing Gaia; 3. A short discussion of some of Latour’s recent critics. In conclusion Abriszewski suggests that Latour’s concept of modernity ought to be reconstructed in order to become useful for the critical work.
