  The Bronze age, an age of war

  Organised violence and manifestations of might in the 2nd millenium BC

  Guerre, violence opportuniste ou ritualisée, crispation territoriale, expression de la force et du pouvoir sont des notions fréquemment mises en avant pour caractériser l’âge du Bronze, époque marquée par une accélération des processus de hiérarchisation des sociétés. À travers quatre sessions, l’objectif de ce colloque sera de discuter ces considérations à partir de sources relatives à l’organisation, individuelle ou collective, technique ou symbolique, des manifestations de violence et de guerre.

  Summer School - Epistemology and methodology

  New perspectives in the philosophy of biology

  BioPerspectives CNRS theme school

  The scientific domain of the summer school is philosophy of biology. After having mostly focused for several decades on evolutionary biology, philosophy of biology has recently shown an increasing interest for issues coming from other biological disciplines, in particular molecular biology. Today, philosophy of biology must widen its scope, and include the new research domains that are emerging in the Life Sciences: it must deal with the philosophical and epistemological challenges and problems originated by those domains, and thereby profoundly renew the object of its reflection. As a matter of fact, we witness today the emergence of a number of new research domains as, in particular, molecular epigenetics, metagenomics, systems biology and synthetic biology.
