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; 2012). Drawing on ethnographies of education as a methodology for empirical inquiry and specifically on meta-ethnography as a methodology for establishing objectivised 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. In doing so and it proposes that education be added to Latour’s schema as an additional mode of existence.

论教育存在方式：拉图、元民族志与社会教育制度

这篇文章为布鲁诺·拉图尔的哲学人类学的使用和扩展提供了一个论据，正如他在他最近的作品“存在模式的调查”（AIME；2012）中所确立的那样。将教育民族志作为实证探究的方法论，特别是元民族志作为一种方法论，以与 AIME 的基础认识论和本体论原则相称的方式建立客观的教育知识，本文解释并应用了理论AIME 的组成部分到教育研究领域。在这样做的过程中，它建议将教育作为一种额外的存在方式添加到拉图尔的模式中。
