Laboratory for Philosophy and Research on Science and Technology (Henri-Poincaré Archives)

Presentation

The Laboratory for Philosophy and Research on Science and Technology (Henri-Poincaré Archives), (Laboratoire Archives Henri-Poincaré – Philosophie et recherches sur les sciences et les technologies – AHP-PReST) is a joint French National Centre for Scientific Research (Centre national de la recherche scientifique – CNRS)/Université de Lorraine/University of Strasbourg research unit (UMR 7117). It is a transdisciplinary team, whose originality lies in the fact that it brings together history, philosophy, sociology of science, and science and technology studies (STS) in a single scientific project.

This last field of research is well represented by the Strasbourg site, with its work on participatory science in particular.

Research topics

1. History of scientific and technical knowledge
2. Scientific practices and their dimensions
3. Philosophy: the world, rationality and normativity

Transdisciplinary focus: Digital humanities and heritage collections
