PIGNUOLI OCAMPO, Sergio. Metatheorizing as Prelude in Latour and Luhmann: A Comparative Perspective. Convergencia [online]. 2024, vol.31, e21922. Epub 06-Mayo-2024. ISSN 2448-5799. https://doi.org/10.29101/crcs.v31i0.21922.
This paper compares the strategies of metatheorization used in Luhmann's General Theory of Social Systems and Bruno Latour's Actor-Network Theory. The methodology is based on George Ritzer's approach and techniques, with an additional operationalization to disaggregate the strategies into two dimensions: double differentiation and elaboration of antecedents. Without prejudice to the divergences pointed out, the results obtained show two significant convergences between the two strategies. Firstly, in terms of double differentiation, both programs define a third radical position. Second, in terms of elaboration of antecedents, both programs opt for a reflexive dialogue with interactionism and for the justification of interdisciplinarity in sociology's deficits.
