Résumé
--
'Philosophy does not travel,' bemoaned Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The discovery of other cultures seemed to afford him an indispensable change of scene, and a wider idea of humanity. However, since the Enlightenment, the field of humanities and social sciences has known considerable development, which French philosophers cannot ignore. Sociology in particular, an emanation - via Durkheim - of philosophical discipline, has always been present in their minds. But we cannot analyse the problem it has posed for philosophy for more than a century without confronting what the most theoretical thinking owes traditions, intellectual hierarchy and disciplinary partitions. Four periods have been studied here, between the 1900s and the 1970s: the first, marked by the debate on Durkheimism the second, dominated by phenomenology the third, placed under the sign of structuralism and the last, encompassing the relations between politics and philosophy, knowledge and power. Instead of itemizing or praising the production of prestigious authors, many of whom are present here (Durkheim, Husserl, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, Lévi-Strauss, Foucault, Bourdieu, Deleuze, Derrida, etc.), Louis Pinto has chosen another task: to understand how the strategies of philosophers, commanded by their position and their resources in the philosophical domain, have facilitated the invention of conceptual instruments, including antinaturalism and antiobjectivism. Readers are led to see philosophers and their ideas in a different light.
