Description

The basic question around which our work will be organized concerns the specificity of the human sciences in their relationship with the results and the particularity of the natural and deductive sciences, the social sciences and the humanities, not only in order to grasp it by difference with the methods and conditions of the latter, but above all to circumscribe the singularity of the modalities and operators proper to the intelligibility of each "human science" when confronted with:

1) the question of the procedures of proof,

2) the question of defining and delimiting objects,

3) the necessary involvement of knowledge in the "social and human" practices and interests of the subjectivities whose activity is indispensable for its constitution,

4) the question of the "genesis" or "genealogy" of the problems that characterize each of them
