Ein Ding ist ein Thing: A Philosophical Platform for a Left European Party

By studying the practice of science, the domain called "science studies" had a deep implication on the definition of politics; it is for this reason that the author was asked to portray what image of politics one could get from a science studies perspective; since the traditional difference between left and right depends on the choice of the frame of reference chosen, this paper is also an attempt at redefining left from right without, as it is customary, identifying left with forms of scientism; it is thus an attempt at finding a movement forward not associated with the notion of progress.
