This article constitutes an argument for both the use and expansion of the philosophical anthropology of Bruno Latour, as established in his recent work An Inquiry into Modes of Existence (AIME). Drawing on ethnographies of education as a methodology for empirical inquiry and specifically on meta-ethnography as a methodology for establishing objectivized knowledge concerning education in a manner that is commensurate to the underpinning epistemological and ontological principles of AIME, this article explicates and then applies the theoretical components of AIME to the field of education research and proposes that education be added to Latour’s schema as an additional mode of existence.

Attitudes towards cultural heritage have long been characterised by an ‘endangerment sensibility’ concerned with preventing losses. Recently, however, critical heritage scholars have argued that loss can be generative, facilitating the formation of new values and attachments. Their arguments have focused primarily on material heritage, whose risk of damage and disappearance is accelerating due to growing environmental crises. After Japan’s 2011 tsunami, however, heritage scholars there began probing a related question: what happens when supposedly ‘intangible’ heritage is damaged? Taking this question as a starting point, I ask how recent applications of assemblage theory in studies of heritage can shed light on destruction's role in forming and reforming places and peoples. Drawing on fieldwork in Japan’s disaster regions, I argue that disassembly is a form of damage rendering both the things mediating heritage and its reciprocal mediation of social life matters of concern. I suggest that the potential of loss lies in how heritage can be made to translate other interests during its reassembly. By contrast, attempts to perpetuate pre-existing relations can render the social more rather than less precarious, depending on the context.
