| Summary: | This article will consider several historical sequences of putting the scholarly category of “living soil” on the agenda in the french agricultural and agronomic worlds from the 1930s to the 1970s. The investigation focuses on the construction of the category itself, its variable ontological status, its fluctuating place within established agronomic knowledge, and the historically changing composition of these “living soils”. It describes the different actors, the main and secondary arenas and the socio-technical projects that made the soils exist as living soils during a period of intense agricultural modernisation. In this way, it brings back critical voices, epistemic cultures that have been downplayed and alternative agendas for agricultural research and progress. |
