- laurentoget 4y agoLatour pretty explicitely thinks of himself as a post Marxist - one of his latest work was "la nouvelle classe ecologique" where he was making the point that environmental questions were the new Class Struggle and his work a continuation of Marxism in another context. Marxist intellectuals have been accusing him and his followers of using marxist tools while giving up on anti-capitalism https://www.babelio.com/livres/Latour-Memo-sur-la-nouvelle-classe-ecologique/1384765 https://www.babelio.com/livres/Latour-Memo-sur-la-nouvelle-c...
