Ecology of practices and technology of belonging

چکیده
Let us first take what is not a simple example, since it was the path along which I came to this idea of ecology : scientific practices, and more particularly physics. Physics as a practice is in dire need of a new habitat, since from its birth as the first so-called "modern science" its claims were entangled with its historical "habitat", and since those claims did survive this habitat. As a result, the way physics presents itself now, the way it defines "physical reality", still continues theologico-political claims referring to the opposition between the world as understood from the intelligible point of view which may be associated with divine creation, and the world as we meet it and interact with it. As a result, physics defining "physical reality" as the objective one, beyond our human only fictions, claims a position of judgement against all other "realities", including that of all other sciences. It is a position practitioners do not know how to leave, even when they wish to. Indeed it is a question of "habitat’ : they feel that as soon as they leave the secure position of claiming that they "discover" physical reality beyond changing appearances, they will be defenceless, unable to resist the reduction of what they are producing to simple instrumental recipes, or to human fictions among others, that is the kind of reductive judgement they use against all other realities.
