The aim of the article is to present how postconstructivism tries to overcome the dualistic distinction between nature and culture (and why this is so important issue). In order to do this, the author of the text compares postconstructivism with cultural constructivism (and its way of dealing with above-mentioned dualism). The former is represented by Bruno Latour, the latter is represented by Richard Rorty. Cultural constructivists want to weaken the nature/culture distinction by persuade us that every object of our knowledge is a cultural object and one should never use nature as an argument. Postconstructivists say that we should stop using both the notion of nature and the notion of culture in our debates.
