  Mountains and New Ways of Building Knowledge

  Contemporary societies have to tackle “wicked” problems, characterized by their complexity, a diversity of views about these problems, as well as a context of uncertainty. Increasingly, the thinking goes that such problems cannot be properly understood by researchers from a single discipline or even by researchers alone. Therefore, the latter are encouraged to find collaborators across disciplinary and academic boundaries and to find and implement « new » ways of building and spreading knowledge.This call is seeking articles that will allow us to question – through and from the mountains – the forms, processes and effects of those “new” ways of building knowledge. It also aims to encourage the reflexivity of researchers who contribute to this evolution and question the how and the why of a fondness for/reliance on Alpine research.
