%X The paper explores Latour¡¯s conception of political ecology and its theoretical and political implications. The first part of the paper shows Latour¡¯s critique of theoretical frameworks of scientific and political practices, which, in his opinion, constrain a true discussion on ecological crises by simplifying them and putting them into readymade interpretative models. The second part of the paper examines the notions - the collective, representation, propositions, articulation, and parliament of things - central to understanding Latour¡¯s idea of involvement of humans and non-humans in politics. Finally, the paper explores the potentials and constraints of Latour¡¯s idea of political community of new political subjects (hybrid entities), which is constituted in controversies and through controversies.
