Abstract

The reading of the Neurath legacy has an extraordinary resonance and validity in the current context. This review rereads and contextualizes of Otto Neurath’s recently republished autobiographical work and reflects on its relevance to think from a visual perspective in social sciences. The review highlights its central contributions as well as reclaims and makes visible the figure of Marie Neurath in this legacy.
