INTERCO-SSH Abstract
The INTERCO-SSH project sets out, firstly, to assess the state of the SSH in
Europe.
Secondly, it aims to outline potential future pathways that would promote
cooperation across
disciplinary and national boundaries, building on the excellence that already
exists in
European SSH. To achieve this, it is necessary to study the SSH in their
socio-historical
context. The project will analyze the process of institutionalization of seven
academic
disciplines within the SSH to obtain an understanding of the sociological
factors that have
shaped the “academic unconscious” of scholars (i.e. the presuppositions
underlying academic
practice) and that facilitate or hinder intellectual cooperation and exchange.
Attention will be
paid to the relationship between the SSH and political and economic powers. The
project will
also investigate the already existing circulation of knowledge between countries
and
disciplines, encompassing an analysis of geographical mobility amongst scholars
and an
assessment of the circulation of ideas.
The INTERCO-SSH project sets out to develop a comparative analysis of the
institutionalization of the SSH in six European countries (UK, France, Germany,
Italy,
Netherlands, Hungary) from 1945 until now. It will also analyze exchanges
between those
countries and other areas: the US, Latin-America, and countries in the South.
The approach
will combine three perspectives: 1) it will construct patterns of
institutionalization of the SSH;
2) it will map the exchanges between countries and disciplines; and 3) it will
study the
circulation of paradigms, theories and controversies.
These three perspectives will help to identify the factors that enable or
inhibit intellectual
cooperation and to make suggestions to improve it. Using the tools of the SSH to
study the
SSH, this project also aims to help establish the “SSH studies” as a proper
academic field of
inquiry, providing the scientific means for assessing and guiding the
development of the SSH
and for strengthening the European Research Area.

Résumé du projet INTERCO-SSH
Le projet INTERCO-SSH a pour premier objectif de dresser un bilan de l'état des
sciences
humaines et sociales en Europe. Il entend également proposer des orientations
afin de
promouvoir la coopération scientifique par-delà les frontières disciplinaires et
nationales, en
s'appuyant sur les acquis des sciences humaines et sociales en Europe. A cette
fin, il étudiera
le développement des sciences humaines et sociales dans leur contexte
socio-historique.
L'étude du processus d'institutionnalisation de sept disciplines permettra
d'identifier les
facteurs sociologiques qui ont façonné "l'inconscient académique" des
universitaires et qui
favorisent ou freinent la coopération et les échanges intellectuels. Les
rapports que les
sciences humaines et sociales entretiennent avec les pouvoirs politiques et
économiques
feront l'objet d'une attention particulière. Les transferts de savoirs entre
pays et disciplines
seront également analysés, à travers la mobilité géographique des universitaires
et la
circulation des idées.
Le projet INTERCO-SSH mènera une analyse comparative de l'institutionnalisation
des
sciences humaines et sociales dans six pays européens (Royaume-Uni, France,
Allemagne,
Italie, Pays-Bas, Hongrie) de 1945 à nos jours. Il traitera aussi des échanges
entre ces pays et
d'autres régions : les Etats-Unis, l'Amérique Latine et des pays du Sud.
L'approche articulera
trois perspectives : 1) Construction de modèles d'institutionnalisation des
sciences humaines
et sociales, 2) Cartographie des échanges entre pays et disciplines, 3) Etude de
la circulation
des paradigmes, théories et controverses.
Ces trois perspectives permettront d'identifier les facteurs qui favorisent ou
entravent la
coopération intellectuelle et de faire des propositions pour l'améliorer.
Utilisant les outils des
sciences humaines et sociales pour étudier les SHS, ce projet vise également à
constituer des
"SSH studies" comme un cha mp de recherche à part entière qui fournira les
moyens
scientifiques pour évaluer et accompagner le développement des SHS et renforcer
l'espace
européen de la recherche.
