Abstract

This article discusses the concept of locality in Bernard Stiegler’s work as the core of the third stage of his thought, in which the pharmacological and organological perspective is intertwined with reflections around entropy and anti-entropy on the physical-biological, informational, and techno-social levels. From this perspective, locality can be considered as a negentropic “natural-cultural” opening. Part one shows such an opening as an indicator of entropic processes at the micro, meso, and macro scales. Part two synthesizes the “pharmacological take on locality and places special emphasis on the socio-political adoption of technology. Finally, part three talks about the dialogue between Bernard Stiegler and Yuk Hui around noodiversity and technodiversity, two new concepts that allow us to see the techno-logical dimension of locality and redefine it politically. Key-words: noodiversity, technodiversity, pharmacology, symptomatology, nature-culture
