Constructivismo y sociología. Siete tesis de Bruno Latour

Bruno Latour argues that contemporary sociology is largely devoted to explain how certain social configurations (such as power hierarchies or structural inequalities) affect other non-social activities (such as law, religion or arts). As a result, sociology would have had abandoned its primary mission to explain the social itself, and it would be producing repetitive and uninteresting explanations. This paper puts together theoretical elements from different works of Bruno Latour in order to state seven theses on his radical critique to contemporary sociology. The main goal of Latour's proposal is reformulating social research, opening the black box in which the Social would have become. Finally, the article concludes summarizing usages and limitations of the perspective of Bruno Latour.
