In 'Where to Land', Bruno Latour, one of the world's most influential thinkers, offers us a survival plan in a political landscape marked by inequality, deregulation, and the denial of climate change. Latour relates these phenomena, arguing that the ruling classes have abandoned the idea of a common future, investing in the denial of climate change. In a time of dissatisfaction with modernity and the rise of borders, Latour redefines what is at stake, inviting us to reflect on how to inhabit the Earth and face the challenges of the 21st century.
This book is an invitation to find our way, offering a stimulating reflection and a manual for the coming century. Latour sheds light on a seemingly chaotic but actually coherent situation, proposing a new map to guide us in politics and the current world.
