We explain how braided fusion categories can be  canonically  reconstructed as gaugings of categories of a particular  type, which we call  reductive. This leads to a parameterization  of braided fusion categories that could be helpful for classification purposes.   The key role is played by a new notion of  the Tannakian radical.  This is a joint work with Jason Green.
