If Marie Curie and later Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Joliot had not worked at getting the company interested in the work done in their laboratories, an analyst from the Union Mini\u00e8re would never have had to do nuclear physics. When discussing Joliot, Weart would never have had to speak of the Upper Katanga. Conversely, once he had envisioned the possibility of a chain reaction, Joliot could have directed his research at some other topic, without having to mobilize, in order to produce a reactor, nearly all of France&#8217;s industrialists and enlightened technocrats. Writing about pre-war France, Weart would not have had to mention Joliot. (Latour 1999:86)<\/p>\n<p>LATOUR, Bruno. 1999. <em>Pandora\u2019s Hope: essays on the reality of science studies<\/em>.
