I am interested in combining quite paradoxical aproaches at first glance. I am close to flat ontology in the style of actor-network theory and at the same time I am attached to classica, modern left-wing politics. Usually the followers of ANT are to some extent anti-modern or a-modern. Sometimes there is only a weak position, which simply cannot bear the Enlightenment promise contained in the 20th century social sciences. But sometimes reading Deleuze, Latour and others leads to purely reactionary attitudes in the style of Dark Enlightment.

On the other hand, supporters of Enlightenment praising and hoping its return in some new reflexive form are often naive ontologically, and fall into old-fashioned scientism or antitechnical dogma in the style of the Frankfurt school.

In my book "Ontological Imagination" I tried to show how to be a supporter of Enlightenment/Modernity and a without losing the Baroque ontology of Latour, Law or Deleuze.

I'm curious if anyone goes in a similar direction?
