In his most recent book, Face à Gaïa, Bruno Latour expresses his concern for the mental state of the inhabitants of planet Earth. He finds it ludicrous that earthlings do not worry more about the damage that their life style causes to the environment. He declares that in the twentieth century, “this classic century of war,” humanity entered a war, a war that was “hidden by the profusion of world wars, colonial wars, and nuclear threats,” but which is also “global and total,” and “equally colonial” ... an ecological war that we have already lost in failing to think about it and live through it. In this article, we propose to analyze the content of this “deep alteration of our relation to the world” that Bruno Latour exposes, and which he qualifies as madness. To do so, we will draw on contributions from psychoanalysis and on the Freudian theory of culture in particular. We will show that this can prove to be particularly fertile when it comes to thinking about the conflictual relationships that human beings maintain with their environment
