About How to Write a Scientific Text: Bruno Latour’s Recommendations

Abstract

The article raises the problem of the need to update the methodology of writing scientific texts in the context of the transformation of modern science. A solution to this problem is proposed using the theoretical and methodological capabilities of the actor-network theory. Based on the analysis of the works of the founder of this theory B. Latour, a system of methodological techniques is presented: the method of controversy, description, explanation and translation, which ensure the integration of the processes of conducting research and writing scientific texts. As a result, a conclusion is made about the need for consistent development of B. Latours methodology and its approbation in the preparation of scientific personnel.
