Conference, symposium - Sociology
Emigration and immigration as a "total social fact"
Thoughts on the work and thinkings of Abdelmalek Sayad
Il y a vingt ans Abdelmalek Sayad nous quittait. Son œuvre, qui s’étend sur près de 40 années d’enquêtes et une centaine de publications, a très largement contribué au renouvellement des regards et des pratiques scientifiques sur le phénomène migratoire et sur un ensemble d’objets de première importance pour les sciences sociales.

Maintaining/supporting: fragility as a mode of existence
The seminar starts with one observation: the proliferation of research that deals with care, or attention, investigating the climate or Gaia, the art of repairing objects or conserving artworks, the maintenance of technical networks, or the right ways to consider vulnerable or marginalised people. Philosophically, critically, politically, what does it take to support fragile entities? We less take fragility as a state that defines some of us than as a shared way of grasping open realities, rough but rich in possibilities, requiring forms of attention that make us sensitive to these calls. Playing a part in this momentum, in the wake of the resumption of pragmatism or pluralistic anthropologies, we will discuss these researches of a new kind. By connecting them, the aim is to unfold the forms of inquiry, writing and action that these studies require and permit to reinvent, while reformulating the concepts that may support this movement.
