Elene Ladaria is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Ilia State University in Tbilisi, Georgia. She is also affiliated with the Institute for Social and Cultural Research at the same university. While her teaching activity is devoted to the history of philosophy with an emphasis on the major moments of the metaphysical tradition, her research interest is mainly in the history of Soviet thought with a focus on the attempts at re-invention of disciplinary arrangements in the scientific field and, more broadly, of a conception of knowledge. From this perspective, she has worked extensively on Konstantin Megrelidze’s project of a historical science of thought, which she proposes as an epistemological component of Marr’s broader project of a reordering of the human sciences.
