První mezinárodní konference v Praze akademické platformy Forum for Romani Histories

Kdy: 20.-21. září 2017
Kde: Akademie věd České republiky, Vila Lanna, Praha
Jazyk: anglicky

Konference je společnou událostí dvou nedávných akademických iniciativ zaměřujících se na dějiny Romů a podporujících nové přístupy ve výzkumu v této oblasti. Jedná se o Prague Forum for Romani Histories a výzkumnou síť zaměřenou na odkaz romské genocidy v Evropě po roce 1945, která byla založena Radou pro výzkum v oblasti umění a humanitních věd (AHRC, Velká Británie). Cílem obou iniciativ je podnítit debatu na téma dějin Romů jako součásti dějin Evropy a současné evropské společnosti.

Center for Science, Technology, and Society Studies (Institute of Philosophy of the Czech Academy of Sciences) and CEFRES
are pleased to invite you to the workshop “Pierre Bourdieu’s Science of Science: Sources, Arenas, Legacies.”

When: Thursday 15 December, 2022, 10 am – 6 pm
Where: CEFRES, Na Florenci 3, Prague 1 et en ligne
Convenor & contact: Jan Marsalek marsalek(@)flu.cas.cz

The aim of the workshop is to reflect on Pierre Bourdieu’s conception and practice of sociology of science that he was developing since 1975 onwards. Reputed as neglected for a long time, the sociology of science and scientific knowledge has become, in the second half of the 20^th Century, one of the most prominent sociological sub-disciplines, that does not hesitate to intervene into general sociology itself. Pierre Bourdieu, celebrated and influential in a wide range of sociological areas, was curiously standing aside this spectacular development of the sociology of science we commonly situate in the 1970s and 1980s. From his singular point of view, which we shall analyse, he made several intriguing criticisms of the emerging trend in the sociology of scientific knowledge, on which we wish to reflect.

The workshop picks up the threads of the Sociology and Philosophy of Physics seminars organized in 2022 by the Institute of Philosophy of the Czech Academy of Sciences and the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Faculty of Arts of the Charles University, Prague.

Abstract of the guest lecture

Science as a field. Bourdieu’s contribution to the sociology of scientific knowledge
Pascal Ragouet
Full Professor of sociology – University of Bordeaux – Centre Émile Durkheim (UMR 5116)

In the course of its history, the sociology of science has been traversed by several major debates. The first is the one that T. Shinn and I analysed in the book titled Controversies on Science by proposing to consider Robert K. Merton’s sociology as a form of differentiationism opposed to the anti-differentiationist tendencies of post-Kuhnian programmes of research on science such as the Strong Programme (D. Bloor, B. Barnes), the empirical programme of relativism (H. Collins, T. Pinch), laboratory studies (B. Latour and S. Woolgar, K. Knorr Cetina, M. Lynch) or the network actor theory (M. Callon, J. Law, B. Latour).

The second concerns the question of whether scientific knowledge can be sociologically analysed. With R. Merton, the sociology of science kept its distance from a sociology of scientific knowledge. The break comes with the Strong Programme and the Empirical Programme of relativism. The pendulum swings back the other way with the radical constructivism of network actor theories. Today, sociologists of science and technical innovation seem to be less concerned with scientific knowledge than with the need to think about science in society, when it is called upon by industrialists and politicians, when it feeds expertise, when it is questioned in the context of risk management and reflections on the relationship between science and democracy.

Bourdieu’s contribution to the sociology of science makes it possible to overcome these lines of conflict because it is based on a theoretical framework articulating a theory of social structuring, a theory of practice and a theory of social asymmetries. Based on two personal research projects on biology, the aim is to show the fruitfulness of this approach.

S potěšením vás zveme na mezinárodní konferenci nazvanou  Pedagogical uses of the past in Europe: International circulations, transfers, transnational debates.

Datum: 11.  až 12. října 2021
Místo: Centre Scientifique de l’Académie Polonaise des Sciences à Paris, 74, rue Lauriston, 75016 Paříž
Jazyk: francouzština a angličtina
Organizátoři: Académie polonaise des sciences  (Centre scientifique à Paris, Centre de civilisation française, CEFRES)

The establishment of new regimes of the late 1980’s in Eastern and Central Europe – as well as successive changes
of governments – have taken place through new historical narratives, combining the demands and needs for
national legitimization, for reconciliation, for symbolic recognition, and the imposition of democratic paradigms.
These concerns have been translated into a variety of mechanisms: solemn speeches, commemorations, lustrations,
ad hoc commissions, legal mechanisms, monuments, museums. Education holds a singular place in such
mechanisms, being assigned with the task of training future generations of citizens.

The scientific field has long neglected the treatment of the past at school and in an extracurricular context. Surely,
the analysis of the instruments of public action in the field of history has been invested by research, concentrating
however essentially on the analysis of textbooks. It remains, with a few exceptions, carried out by researchers
in the educational sciences and, often, by history didactitians. The analysis of international circulations in the
management of the past at school has, for its part, focused mainly on historians’ commissions, without, however,
linking their action to school and extracurricular teaching practices. Yet, schools are the subject of a large number
of transpositions, adaptations and/or (re)appropriations of inherited mechanisms for inter- and/or transnational,
or even global exchanges (work of UNESCO, of the Council of Europe, of the EU, of bilateral commissions of
historians, teaching about Shoah as a political-moral norm, use of the figure of the witness or visits to “places of
memory” in the framework of pedagogical practices).

The aim of this conference is to re-examine uses of the past at school and in extracurricular activities in the light
of these international movements, based on a reflection on the different scales of analysis of this phenomenon:
from the international to the microscopic classroom level. It is indeed linked to the issue of thinking these uses as
one of the determining factors for the construction of educational instruments and practices at school and beyond.

Such an analysis presupposes a reflection on the different levels of these dynamics of circulation: around the
transmitters and disseminators of ideas and knowledge, the socio-political conditions of their privileged reception,
their inclusion in cultural spaces and international or even globalized networks. In this perspective, the
weight of the past in transnational memory conflicts in an enlarged Europe will be questioned, as well as the ruptures
and continuities in the place assigned to minorities. This conference intends to be multidisciplinary, drawing
on reflections from the fields of education, history, political science and sociology.
