This article is based on an anthropological fieldwork carried out in the urban renewal context of the La Duchère district in Lyon. It attempts to analyse the processes of knowledge and other results of this research by placing them into the environments from which they emerged and into the familiarity and attachment relationships established within them. Considering knowledge experiences is an opportunity to look at the nature of scientific work in the context of urban renewal and to examine [...]

Metagenomics, also termed environmental genomics, is a recently developed technique aiming at the global characterization of the ensemble of DNAs present at a given site. As such, it gradually establishes itself as a novel form of spatial metrology and as a quantitative and qualitative measure of the DNA content of a portion of space (taken in turn as an indicator of the community of human and non-human life forms present at the sampled site). It is currently being applied [...]

Daumas, Jean-Claude. 2018. La révolution matérielle. Une histoire de la consommation. France, XIXe-XXIe siècle. Paris : Flammarion.
Corinne Delmas | 06.09.2019
What is consumption ? How to write its history ? Who consumes what in France ? In what way ? Can we speak of a vast democratization movement ? La révolution matérielle. Une histoire de la consommation deals with all these questions. Jean-Claude Daumas gives us an epic account covering three centuries of national, economic, social and also material history. Distinguishing five periods, he evokes the evolution of the "world of goods" and their consumption from the middle of [...]
Une approche du quotidien de la rénovation urbaine.
Maïlys Toussaint | 23.08.2019
What can be done when the researcher notices that her methodology of investigation does not apply well to the studied neighborhood ? This research takes place in the Villeneuve of Grenoble, a large neighborhood created as a new center of Grenoble during the 70’s by a pluridisciplinary agency of urbanism and architecture named AUA (Atelier d’Urbanisme et d’Architecture). This urban project, significantly conceived like a social and physical utopia, has become an atypical and complex neighborhood, with its qualities [...]
Le cas des mouvements naturistes en France (du 19e siècle aux années 30).
Sylvain Villaret | 15.08.2019
Naturism is based on the practice of collective nudity. That’s why it has long appeared to be part of a deviance, of an abnormality. In the 19th century, as in the beginning of the 20th century, the pioneers of naturism are aware of transgressing social norms, with the judicial risks involved. From these remarks, we will examine, from an historical perspective, the factors that determined the emergence of these bodily practices deemed deviant, but also their diffusion and their [...]
Un nouvel espace de connaissance de la rénovation de l’habitat social ?
Sophie Némoz | 09.08.2019
The paper questions the everyday life of an urban area whose renewal is part of a project to achieve a « sustainable habitat ». This empirical research has a double purpose. On the one hand, it is a matter of restoring the worlds experienced by the inhabitants and professionals as the lifetime of the so-called and qualified housing. On the other hand, we aim to open up the debate on what the researcher produces through the repeated presence on [...]
How Individuals See Themselves in Visual Representations.
Dario Rodighiero et Loup Cellard | 08.08.2019
This article explores how readers recognize their personal identities represented through data visualizations. The recognition is investigated starting from three definitions captured by the philosopher Paul Ricœur : the identification with the visualization, the recognition of someone in the visualization, and the mutual recognition that happens between readers. Whereas these notions were initially applied to study the role of the book reader, two further concepts complete the shift to data visualization : the digital identity stays for the present-day [...]
La pensée occidentale à l’épreuve de la critique décoloniale.
François Warin | 01.08.2019
En quête d’Afrique(s). The difference highlighted by the alternative naming of the African continent as "Africa" or "Africas" – singular or plural – announces the depth of the dispute between our two authors : the philosopher and the anthropologist, the Black and the White, the African and the « Jew »… and sheds light on the extent to which universalism needs to be reinvented. In a sort of a gigantomachy around the matter of universalism, SBD and JLA dialogue [...]
Badie, Bertrand. Quand le Sud réinvente le monde. Essai sur la puissance de la faiblesse. Paris : La Découverte.
Gérard Martial Amougou | 26.07.2019
A major factor in the current turbulence of global society, the power of weakness would undermine the realistic reading of international relations. The failure of the Westphalian model would give way to the emergence of new forms of self-assertion and conflictualism by the South. However, it seems that the reinvention of the international system advocated by Badie still requires a closer contextualization of the South, in order to better support the notion of the power of weakness.
