Chères et chers collègues,
je vous prie de trouver ci-dessous un appel à contributions (date limite 10 avril 2019) pour un colloque qui se tiendra à Lyon du 6 au 7 juin prochain dans le cadre du projet PartiSCiP (IDEX Lyon) « Sciences participatives : nouvelles perspectives épistémologiques sur l’objectivité scientifique » www.partiscip.com <http://www.partiscip.com/> Bien cordialement Stéphanie Ruphy —————————————————— Citizen science: new epistemological, ethical and political challenges International workshop, Université de Lyon, France June 6-7, 2019 Description: This one-and-half-day international workshop is organized in the framework of the PartiSCiP project (www.partiscip.com) <http://www.partiscip.com)/>, which focuses on the impact on scientific objectivity of public participation in science. The opening of the very process of production of scientific knowledge and expertise to non-professional scientists benefits increasingly from institutional and political support. This development of “citizen science”, “participatory science” and other forms of science involving in one way or another lay people raises various new epistemological challenges. How does public participation influence the epistemic properties of the research process and its outcomes? In particular, how objectivity is affected by this participation? The workshop will also explore, more broadly, ethical and political challenges raised by citizen science, by bringing together philosophers of science, jurists, sociologists and scientists involved in citizen science programs. Possible topics of contribution include: theoretical and empirically informed analysis about objectivity as a social, intersubjective process; issues about conflicts of values and biases, dissent and consensus formation; epistemic responsibility; issues of under-representation in participatory science; deliberative practices in science and in democracy; feedbacks on past or ongoing citizen science programs.
