Time: the contemporary history of a political and scientific issue
Le temps : histoire contemporaine d'un enjeu politique et scientifique
Published on Tuesday, November 22, 2016
Abstract
This conference gathers researchers who address in their scholarly work the issue of action on diverse temporalities, time being a category that they explicitly use (long-term, simultaneity, production of temporal sequences etc.). It intends to go beyond the study of time and temporalities as the simple background in which societies evolve, and to encourage the historicisation of time as a category of action in the modern era.
