Latour's "Science in Action"

Latour's "Science in Action" examines how scientific knowledge is constructed through social processes, experiments, and negotiations, rather than being a straightforward discovery of truths. He emphasizes that scientific facts are stabilized through networks of researchers, instruments, and institutions, which work together to validate and maintain knowledge. This perspective reveals science as a dynamic, collaborative practice influenced by various social and material factors, rather than just a pursuit of objective truth. Overall, Latour shows that scientific facts are shaped through ongoing social and technical interactions.
