  Seeing, knowledge and showing - practices, instruments and materialities of the visualisation of the body

  Pratiques, instruments, et matérialités de la visualisation de corps

  Dans le cadre des travaux du groupe de travail « Corps, techniques et société » (CETCOPRA/AFS) sur les territoires corporels des techniques, la journée d’étude « Voir, savoir, donner à voir » propose de poursuivre les réflexions du groupe, ayant donné lieu à une série de rencontres autour de l’imagerie médicale et moléculaire. Nous y reprendrons notre problématique initiale en trois questions : la question de la production des images ; la question de la construction d’un regard ; et la question du diagnostic.

  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.

  Historical Network Research

  This conference follows up the Future of Historical Network Research (HNR) Conference 2013 and aims to bring together scholars from all historical disciplines, sociologists, other social scientists, geographers and computer scientists to discuss the emerging field of historical Social Network Analysis. The concepts and methods of social network analysis in historical research are no longer merely used as metaphors but are increasingly applied in practice. With the increasing availability of both structured and unstructured digital data, we should be able to analyze complex phenomena. Historical SNA can help us to cope with the organization of this information and the reduction of complexity.

  Contagion / contamination

  Tracés journal no.21

  La revue Tracés consacre son numéro 21 aux thèmes de la contagion et de la contamination, aux usages de ces notions, qu'ils soient contrôlés ou incontrôlés, littéraux ou métaphoriques. Ce numéro entend traiter ce thème de manière à la fois empirique et théorique, dans une enquête collective qui mobilisera des objets d’études comme les maladies épidémiques ou liés à l’usage de la contagion dans l’épistémologie des sciences sociales.
