Description
Summary:In this article, Roger Cornu recalls his friendly, professional and intellectual encounters with Jean-Pierre Poitou. He combines his personal memories with the debates that took place over more than sixty years within the social sciences, highlighting the importance of political and militant commitments, but also the desire to establish a rigorous theoretical approach. It shows the many ways in which anthropologists, psychologists and sociologists came together to understand work, whether manual or intellectual, in industrial research centres, factories or shipyards. By endeavouring to understand and reconstruct the practice observed in fieldwork, the sociologist gives us the keys to the theoretical path that led to Jean-Pierre Poitou's conception of the anthropology of knowledge.
