In Auguste Comte's time, science was poised to dominate existence in theory and practice. Whether in technical or political action, the idea was to access the laws according to which nature and society are made, and to govern them according to their principles. What has happened has been quite the opposite: far from science, clarity, and efficiency growing together, the applications that transform the world are born of a highly speculative science, in the ultimate sense in which it is so poorly understood. And far from science having submitted to politics, we have, on the contrary, a physics full of philosophical and almost political debates.
