Session\u00a0title\u00a0: Abandoning the usual disciplinary structures in science<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1994, M. Gibbons, C. Limoges, H. Nowotny et alii published The New Production of Knowledge: The Dynamics of Science and Research in Contemporary Societies<\/em>, followed in 2001 by Rethinking Science: Knowledge and the Public in an Age of Uncertainty<\/em>by Nowotny, Scott and Gibbons. In those works, they presented a shift in the production of knowledge, from \u00ab\u00a0mode 1\u00a0\u00bb to \u00ab\u00a0mode 2\u00a0\u00bb, presented as two heuristic paradigma.<\/p>\n

Twenty years later, the H2020 program of the European Commission structures the EU research program around big societal challenges, abandoning the usual disciplinary structure, but despite constant and pressing calls to a new organisation of science production, universities and research organizations seem to be still mainly structured according to mode 1. Nonetheless, a closer look shows that in this (slowly) moving landscape, some innovative structures are experimenting new ways of producing science, and have deliberately organised themselves to cross either the borders of disciplines (humanities, social sciences and natural sciences), or the borders between public and private sectors, or between basic research and applied science, or between professional scientists and amateurs. Through those explorations they are renewing research outcomes and relations between science and the society.<\/p>\n

This session is dedicated to those innovative structures.<\/p>\n

After an overall introduction by A.S. Godfroy (SND Sorbonne, Paris), cases studies will be presented. Each presenter is a member of a new research lab and will present the reasons for creating this new structure, the existing results and the expected outcomes. The session will end with a reflective part involving the public and science policy makers.<\/p>\n
