#ESR #VSS 🙃 On retiendra ce commentaire d'une chercheuse: "La seule obsession du CNRS, c’est la parité. Et là, oui, il y a des avancées. Mais sur les violences sexistes et sexuelles, c’est silence radio. C’est “ne vous en occupez pas”" 🤐

Malgré des signalements, le CNRS épargne l’un de ses pontes

Après une enquête interne pour « agissement sexiste », l’organisme a décidé de ne pas infliger de sanction disciplinaire à Fabien Jobard, chercheur spécialiste des violences policières. L’Association…

Look what just came through the post! The volume "Musées et sciences sociales" ed. A. Romano and C. Guichard in the fabulous "Enquête" collection is coming out 21 August (Éditions EHESS) ... and ✨I have a chapter in it✨ on nathist museums in the anthropocene! #envhum #envhist #histsci

picture of closed book with orange and green cover (with stylised leaf design) - entitled "Musées et sciences sociales".
Next to it is the first page of article " Les musées d’histoire naturelle dans l’anthropocène : collecter et exposer la nature à l’heure de la crise environnementale" [Natural history museums in the Anthropocene : collecting and exhibiting nature in the age of environmental crisis]

Picture of back cover : "En 2025, les cent plus grandes institutions muséales du monde ont cumulé plus de 200 millions de visiteurs, retrouvant presque leur niveau d'avant 2019.
Les musées font partie intégrale de la carte du tourisme global et participent à l'économie des territoires qui les accueillent. Pourtant tous musées confondus - de l'art, des sciences, des cultures du monde, d'histoire naturelle ou autre - la question de l'articulation entre collecte, exposition et conservation pose celle plus fondamentale de la définition, de la place et des fonctions d'une institution dont la croissance au xixe siècle a accompagné celle des états-nations et des empires.
Crise? Dans un ensemble de retours réflexifs sur ces espaces, proposé par des spécialistes de différentes disciplines et régions du monde, le dossier ouvre les musées aux sciences sociales, éclairant ainsi, par effet de retour, les potentialités d'un dialogue entre les deux mondes, sur des questions"

B possesses an object of value. A steals said object from B. A places said object in a museum. Descendants of A may view said object for free. Descendants of B may view said object for a fee. That is extortion, and most of the world’s leading cultural institutions are perpetrators of it.
