Special Case

Turkey has become the first and main transition hub for Syrian refugees. Furthermore, Turkey is spatially as well as culturally simultaneously referred to as European and Asian or Middle Eastern depending the point of view. Therefore, the representation of refugees in the Turkish press proves significant for the knowledge produced about refugees. Accordingly, this chapter strives to investigate the coverage of Syrian refugees in newspapers, which constitutes only one aspect of the overall reception of the issue in Turkey, and therefore does not claim to be exhaustive. Yet, because daily newspapers are still among the most important media sectors in Turkey, they constitute a special case of knowledge production worth investigating.

Based on a multi-site ethnography of two influential newspapers in Brazil, this article examines how Brazilian journalists mediate knowledge claims made by experts, policy makers and the lay public. It asks whether and how these journalists experience themselves as knowledge-makers. More specifically, it argues that Brazilian journalists index their production of knowledge in reference to four main characteristics: depth, authorship, influence, and expertise. Journalists tend to consider newsmaking a contribution to knowledge when: (1) they have the resources to do proper investigative reporting (depth); (2) they are able to help define the public agenda through their reporting and to express their opinion (authorship); (3) they have impact on the polity, the economy or other fields they cover (influence) and (4) their journalistic knowledge is recognized by readers and by specialists (expertise). In practice, however, there are multiple obstacles that make Brazilian journalists hesitant about their contribution to knowledge, including intensified working conditions, the lack of plurality within the mainstream presses, and their informal methods for dealing with knowledge claims from other fields. This research reveals that Brazilian journalists have different understandings of the nature of knowledge in journalism. These understandings cluster around two distinct poles: an expert notion of knowledge associated with disciplinary boundaries, and a distinct conception associated with journalists’ capacity to mediate between jurisdictions. When journalists’ production is assessed from the former point of view, the informality of their methods is seen as undermining their knowledge credentials. By contrast, when journalists’ contribution is assessed from the latter point of view, their ‘interactional expertise’ comes to the fore.

This essay begins by surveying our current moment in the humanities, diagnosing the language of crisis that frames much of the discourse about them. It argues that the crisis is a manufactured economic one not a symbolic one. The problems with many recent proposals—such as the new aestheticism, surface reading, and postcritique—is that they attempt to solve an economic crisis on the level of symbolic capital. They try to save the humanities by redisciplining them and making them mirror various forms amateur inquiry. I describe these approaches as the new enclosures, attempts at returning the humanities to disciplinarity with the hopes that administrative and neoliberal forces will find what we do more palatable. Instead of attempting to appease such forces by being pliant and apolitical, we need a new workerist militancy (daring to be “bad workers” from the point of view of neoliberal managerial rhetorics) to combat the economic crisis produced by neoliberalism. Meanwhile, on the level of knowledge production, the humanities need to resist the demand to shrink the scope of their inquiry to the disciplinary. The humanities, at their best, have been interdisciplinary. They have foregrounded both the subject of the human and all the complex forces that shape, limit, and exist in relationship and contradiction with the human. The essay concludes by arguing that the humanities, to resist neoliberal symbolic logics, need to embrace both a critical humanism, and the crucial challenges to this humanism that go by the name of antihumanism and posthumanism. It is only by putting these three discourses in negative dialectical tension with each other that we can begin to imagine a reinvigorated humanities that can address the challenges of the twenty-first century.

International audience El objetivo de éste artículo es dar cuenta de la manera por la cual las concepciones plurales de la realidad son inherentes al proceso de conocimiento. Asimismo, el artículo apunta a mostrar de qué manera los distintos puntos de vista de los actores sobre ésta realidad son social y materialmente situados. Apoyándose en el enfoque de J.-P. Darré , el neo-pragmatismo de H. Putnam, así como en los aportes de lingüistas y psicólogos, el presente trabajo ilumina la manera en la cual la relación entre realidad y conocimiento puede establecerse. El artículo destaca que la verdad depende de la adecuación del conocimiento a la realidad y pone en relieve las propiedades interactivas de las cosas. Finalmente, permite revelar la naturaleza social de las concepciones y discute, a partir de la noción de punto de vista de A. Schütz, la caracterización social de estos puntos de vista. The purpose of this article is to report the way in which the plural understandings of reality are inherent to the process of knowledge production. It alsoaims to show what it means that actors’ point of view are socially and materially situated. Relying on J.-P. Darré’s approach, Putnam’s pragmatism, as well as on linguists’ and psychologists’ works, it highlights how the relationship between reality and knowledge may be understood. It underlines that truth depends on the adequacy of knowledge to reality and emphasizes the interactional features of things. Then, it focuses on the social nature of understanding and discusses the social characterization of points of view, drawing on A. Schütz’s works. Le but de cet article est de rendre compte de la façon dont desconceptions plurielles de la réalité sont inhérentes au processus de connaissance.Il vise aussi à montrer comment on peut entendre que les points de vue des acteurs sur cette réalité sont socialement et objectivement situés. S’appuyant sur l’approche de J.-P. Darré, sur le néopragmatisme de H. Putnam, ainsi que sur les travaux de linguistes et de psychologues, il éclaircit la façon dont on peut entendre le rapport qui peut être établi entre réalité et connaissance. Il souligne que la vérité dépend de l’adéquation de la connaissance à la réalité et met en valeur les propriétés interactionnelles des choses. Il fait ensuite apparaître la nature sociale des conceptions et discute, à partir de la notion de point de vue de A. Schütz, de la caractérisation sociale de ces points de vue.

Abstract This article focuses on the question of how cooperative knowledge production takes place and, in particular, how novel knowledge is formed and implemented in organisational action. According to the current state of knowledge, this process, which results in a change in the way an organisation acts, is called social innovation. The framework for argumentation and reflection is provided by studies from the social work sciences on cooperative knowledge production and social innovation, as well as studies on the hybridity of knowledge and its interaction with the knowledge resources of scientific and non-scientific actors. Relevance structures are recognised in this article as a fundamental structure in the field of cooperative knowledge production; they significantly influence the question of how and when new knowledge leads to social innovation. A research project on homelessness serves as an example. Homelessness has been a research topic in Europe for many years. In Switzerland, however, there are hardly any scientifically sound studies and there are also few documented methods of action in practice. From this point of view, homelessness in Switzerland is therefore in need of innovation.

In this article, decolonial scholarship inspires a discussion of globalization processes problematizing the concept of the ‘global child’. The antinomy global–local and the issue of the North–South divide are scrutinized, and child scholarship is evaluated from the point of view of a political economy of knowledge production. Finally, some key issues about what a Southern theory of childhood should look for based on a ‘politics of the local’ and its eventual interconnections with the global are discussed.

Este trabalho apresenta o acompanhamento, estudo e análise de trajetórias de terapeutas ocupacionais no Brasil que compõem a produção de conhecimentos nas interfaces com a arte, o corpo e a cultura. Seu objetivo é apresentar singularidades e similaridades de suas trajetórias inventivas e a produção de novos sentidos para a atuação profissional. Trata-se de uma pesquisa-intervenção sob perspectiva do método cartográfico e instaura uma produção de dados e fluxos processuais na investigação dos temas. Os dados são organizados em três etapas: 1) apresentação do campo de interesses: recomposição de temas e momentos da produção de conhecimento em interface com a arte, o corpo e a cultura na terapia ocupacional brasileira; 2) o ponto de partida: investigação das trajetórias de quatro terapeutas ocupacionais docentes que produzem nessas temáticas e elaboração cartográfica dos dados com identificação de sentidos; 3) descobertas do caminho: proposição de um ensaio sobre inventividade nas trajetórias e produções profissionais em terapia ocupacional. Os resultados da pesquisa apontaram elementos singulares e similares envolvendo as trajetórias e indicaram analisadores significativos, como: experiências de vida e repertório criativo; experiências profissionais transdiciplinares; investimento em fundamentos da terapia ocupacional. Marca-se um cenário de produção teórico-prática coerente com as experiências e experimentações de cada trajetória, que conjuntamente contribuem para a construção do conhecimento da profissão relacionada às atividades humanas, à produção de vida, à transdisciplinaridade e à complexidade, para além das temáticas específicas da arte, do corpo e da cultura.AbstractThis paper presents the accompaniment, study and analysis of occupational therapy trajectories in Brazil composing the knowledge production at their interfaces with art, body and culture. Its objective is to expose singularities and similarities of those inventive trajectories and to produce new meanings for professional performance.  It is an intervention-research under the point of view of the cartographic method, which establishes the production of data and procedural flows in the investigation of the themes. Data have been organized in three phases:  1) presentation of the field of interests: recomposing themes and moments of knowledge production at its interface with art, body and culture in the Brazilian Occupational Therapy; 2) baseline: investigation of the trajectories of four occupational therapists and professors who have a production in those themes and cartographic preparation of the data to identify meanings; 3) the findings in the path: proposal of an essay on inventiveness in occupational-therapy professional trajectories and productions. The research’s outcomes point out singular and similar elements in the trajectories and indicate significant analyzers, such as: life experience and creative repertoire; trans-disciplinary professional experiments; investments in fundaments of occupational therapy. A scenario of theoretical-practical production consistent with the experiences and experiments in every trajectory was found, which jointly contribute to build the knowledge of the profession related to human activities, to life production, to trans-disciplinarity and to complexity beyond the specific themes of art, body and culture. Keywords: Occupational Therapy/trends; art, culture, knowledge. ResumenEste trabajo presenta el seguimiento, estudio y análisis de las trayectorias de los terapeutas ocupacionales en Brasil que conforman la producción de conocimiento en las interfaces con el arte, el cuerpo y la cultura.

Demarcation Criteria

In this paper, I wish to face the old problem of demarcation from a new point of view. I aim at pointing out that there are distinction criteria between scientific and non-scientific knowledge. I intend to investigate whether it is possible to define demarcation criteria by studying the social dimension of science. There are social necessities, which force the scientific production of knowledge to distinguish itself from non-scientific production. Science is not what scientists freely decide it should be, but what they are compelled to acknowledge it is. The paper discusses the nature of this constraint, which has a social origin but is also capable to be reflected on the cognitive contents of science. Through a discussion of the theories of Bruno Latour and Pierre Bourdieu, attention is drawn on the cycle of credibility as the crucial social mechanism determining scientific knowledge.

Resumo Este artigo analisa a experiência de um grupo de cientistas e especialistas do Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) que buscou consolidar e legitimar, ao longo de duas décadas, um modo próprio de produção de conhecimento científico e tecnológico. Mudanças de paradigma da Política de C&T, nos anos 1990, retiraram o apoio governamental de seus desenvolvimentos, obrigando-os a mudar suas ações estratégicas para que permitisse manter e preservar o modelo endógeno e autônomo de produção do conhecimento. O artigo trabalha com a perspectiva de Pierre Bourdieu (2001), aplicada ao campo científico, e a noção de “translação” de Bruno Latour (2000). A abordagem sociológica contempla e naturaliza os jogos de interesses e disputas no interior do campo científico, bem como destaca o processo de legitimação científica e social do conhecimento. O artigo tem como objetivo principal oferecer uma contribuição aos processos de discussão do modelo das políticas de CTI, principalmente na definição dos conhecimentos a serem produzidos e absorvidos pelo processo de desenvolvimento econômico e social do país. O artigo destaca a necessidade de se ampliar e aprofundar mecanismos democráticos, adotando maior inclusão e transparência nas disputas do campo científico e das políticas de C&T, condições básicas para alcançar um consenso geral que permita emergir um desenvolvimento desejado e planejado por boa parte da sociedade.Palavras-chave Sociologia do Conhecimento, produção de conhecimento, legitimação, democracia e desenvolvimentoAbstract This article analyzes the experience of a group of scientists and specialists from the National Institute of Space Research (INPE) who aimed to consolidate and legitimize, throughout two decades, its own way of producing scientific and technological knowledge. Changes of paradigm in Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) Politics, during the 90s, removed governmental support from its developments, compelling scientists to change their strategic actions in order to preserve their endogenous and independent model of knowledge production. The article uses Pierre Bourdieu´s (2001) perspective applied to scientific field and the notion of “translation” from Bruno Latour`s (2000) point of view. The sociological approach contemplates and naturalizes interest games and disputes in the scientific field, as well as emphasizes the scientific and social legitimating process of knowledge. The main objective of this article is to offer a contribution to STI politics model discussion processes, mainly those that define the knowledge produced and absorbed by the Brazilian economic and social development process. The article highlights the necessity of extending and deepening democratic mechanisms, adopting more inclusiveness and transparency into the scientific field and STI politics, basic conditions to reach a general consensus so that a desired and planned development by the majority of society may emerge.Keywords sociology of knowledge, knowledge production, legitimation, democracy and development
