  Summer School - Science studies

  Research, pedagogic sessions and tools for controversy mapping

  FORCCAST Summer School 2015

  In 2014, we started the FORCCAST summer school with a provocative question: “What is a good controversy?”. We began by lining up case studies selected by participants which were then discussed by  participants in small groups. We would like to continue this exercise by inviting scholars working on controversies to present their case study and situate the notion of “controversies” in relation to more established and used social sciences concepts. It is not unfair to detect a somewhat casual use of “controversies” as an analytical resource. Against this trend, we encourage scholars to present research that falls within this area, and also to refine the coarse nature of the very term “controversy”. Over the years, we will build a repository of case studies that should help all of us to analyze the diversity behind the use of the term “controversies”, to identify some patterns, and hopefully to build a common typology.

  Summer School - Epistemology and methodology

  Early printed books: from the Gutenberg invention to the digital revolution

  Published before 1501, the first printed editions, known as incunabula, first captured the interest of booklovers, researchers, and librarians three centuries ago. Today, knowledge of the output from these first fifty years is more widespread as a result of national and international bibliographical research. An inventory of some 30,000 incunabular books has been compiled, representing around fifty million copies that circulated over a period of roughly fifty years. This summer school aims to increase the participants' awareness of the issues surrounding the description, cataloguing and digitisation of incunabula. It is intended to highlight the interest of a scientific approach, for example by focussing on the conditions in which they were produced and on their content, as well as by reconstructing their journey to the present day through the study of their bindings and marks of origin.

  Summer School - Thought

  Phenomenology and Marxism: historical perspectives and theoretical heritage

  Aujourd’hui surgissent de nouvelles lectures de Marx, liées notamment aux crises récentes, en même temps que se développent de nouvelles approches de la phénoménologie ; les unes et les autres se croisent dans leur interrogation des sciences humaines et de l’anthropologie philosophique. Or les rapports entre marxisme et phénoménologie ont constitué déjà, à plusieurs reprises, un axe fondamental du débat culturel européen, dans les années 60 et 70. L'école vise ainsi la reconstruction de la perspective théorique dans laquelle se sont inscrites ces confrontations et la discussion de leurs principales implications théoriques. L'objectif principal de l'école est d'établir un état de la recherche et de ses enjeux actuels pour la recherche en SHS. Un autre objectif est d'établir un échange entre chercheurs et documentalistes menant à l'élaboration des stratégies de valorisation des archives des auteurs qui ont animé ce débat.
