pr\u00e9jug\u00e9s posent un probl\u00e8me. C\u2019est seulement dans ces cas qu\u2019il convient de faire appel aux vues du monde, aux id\u00e9ologies, aux rapports de force, aux r\u00e9sistances culturelles, \u00e0 l\u2019inconscient, aux pesanteurs sociologiques ou m\u00eame \u00e0 la psychopathologie. Comment ces gens peuvent-ils croire \u00e0 des choses aussi irrationnelles ? Le simple fait de poser cette question et d\u2019enqu\u00eater avec un tel programme de recherche cr\u00e9e une asym\u00e9trie compl\u00e8te entre les sciences et les autres croyances. En effet, \u00e0 chaque fois, la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 scientifique finit par \u00e9merger en s\u2019arrachant aux cultures et aux circonstances, alors que les croyances y restent attach\u00e9es. [...] D\u2019o\u00f9 la question qu\u2019on ne peut \u00e9viter en les lisant : comment, nous, occidentaux, avons-nous \u00e9t\u00e9 capables d\u2019inventer une forme de connaissance si radicalement originale qu\u2019elle \u00e9chappe \u00e0 toutes conditions culturelles de production ?1 \u00bb<sup><a href=\"#fn1\" id=\"ref1\" class=\"sup-link\">1<\/a><\/sup> \u00bb (Latour, 1983).\n            <\/blockquote>\n\n            <p>Bruno Latour, faisant le constat de l\u2019apparente objectivit\u00e9 de la recherche\nscientifique \u2014 seules les sciences pouvant pr\u00e9tendre acc\u00e9der \u00e0 la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 dans le paradigme\noccidental moderne \u2014 questionne ici les modalit\u00e9s de production des connaissances\nscientifiques. Sont-elles aussi exemptes de biais qu\u2019elles le pr\u00e9tendent ?<\/p>\n\n            <p>Le triomphe de la raison au si\u00e8cle des Lumi\u00e8res permet \u00e0 la d\u00e9marche scientifique de s\u2019\u00e9riger\nen rempart contre les croyances religieuses obscurantistes et l\u2019absolutisme politique, et\ninfluence la mani\u00e8re dont la connaissance sera produite pour les si\u00e8cles \u00e0 venir. Alors que la raison cart\u00e9sienne et la pens\u00e9e scientifique se constituent en acc\u00e8s privil\u00e9gi\u00e9s \u00e0 la v\u00e9rit\u00e9, les\nmodalit\u00e9s de la pens\u00e9e et de la production de connaissances extra-occidentales sont tax\u00e9es\nd\u2019irrationnelles et de primitives, comme le montre Aum\u00f4nier (2015)<sup><a href=\"#fn2\" id=\"ref2\" class=\"sup-link\">2<\/a><\/sup>. Cette dynamique se\nprolonge au XIXe si\u00e8cle avec des courants de pens\u00e9e tels que le positivisme ou le scientisme,\nselon lesquels seule la rationalit\u00e9 de la m\u00e9thode scientifique serait \u00e0 m\u00eame de garantir la\nfiabilit\u00e9 des connaissances produites.<\/p>\n\n            <p>Dans ce contexte, les universit\u00e9s qui \u00e9taient auparavant\nd\u00e9pendantes de l\u2019\u00c9glise sont r\u00e9form\u00e9es et deviennent des lieux de production de savoir.\nL\u2019enseignement qui y est dispens\u00e9 ne vise plus seulement \u00e0 \u00ab transmettre les \u00e9l\u00e9ments d\u2019un\nsyst\u00e8me de valeurs dominant<sup><a href=\"#fn3\" id=\"ref3\" class=\"sup-link\">3<\/a><\/sup> \u00bb (Dum\u00e9ry et al., 1999) mais entend accompagner la dynamique\nde progr\u00e8s de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 en favorisant la recherche.

La philosophie des sciences, la sociologie des\nsciences, l\u2019anthropologie appliqu\u00e9e aux sciences et aux techniques, la scientom\u00e9trie, etc.,\ns\u2019int\u00e9ressent aux conditions culturelles qui influencent la production de connaissances\nscientifiques et aux caract\u00e9ristiques de la recherche elle-m\u00eame. L\u2019\u00e9pist\u00e9mologie dominante se\ntrouve \u00e9branl\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n            <p>Dans les ann\u00e9es 1990 et notamment avec les travaux de Robert Neel Proctor na\u00eet une nouvelle\ndiscipline qui vise \u00e0 \u00e9tudier les m\u00e9canismes de construction sociale de l\u2019ignorance, de son\nentretien et de sa diffusion : l\u2019<strong>agnotologie<\/strong>. Elle distingue les ph\u00e9nom\u00e8nes qui rel\u00e8vent d\u2019une\nproduction intentionnelle et non-intentionnelle d\u2019ignorance, et constate que la recherche\nscientifique n\u2019\u00e9chappe pas \u00e0 ces dynamiques. Dans un contexte o\u00f9 de nouvelles recherches\ntendent \u00e0 d\u00e9construire la croyance en l\u2019objectivit\u00e9 des sciences et questionnent le caract\u00e8re\nin\u00e9branlable des connaissances scientifiques, l\u2019agnotologie \u00e9tudie la mani\u00e8re dont la production\nde savoir s\u2019accompagne n\u00e9cessairement d\u2019une production d\u2019ignorance.

Les biais peuvent influer sur la\nconception de la recherche, la collecte et l\u2019interpr\u00e9tation des donn\u00e9es ou la\ncommunication des r\u00e9sultats. Bien qu\u2019il soit difficile ou impossible d\u2019\u00e9liminer\ncompl\u00e8tement les biais, des mesures peuvent \u00eatre prises pour identifier et minimiser\nles sources potentielles de biais les plus graves<sup><a href=\"#fn4\" id=\"ref4\" class=\"sup-link\">4<\/a><\/sup> \u00bb (InterAcademy Partnership, 2016). On peut citer les biais de s\u00e9lection, d\u2019information, d\u2019analyse, d\u2019\u00e9chantillonnage, les\nbiais proc\u00e9duraux, les biais de r\u00e9ponse, etc. Ces biais \u2014 non-intentionnels et souvent\ninconscients \u2014 traversent la recherche acad\u00e9mique et g\u00e9n\u00e8rent de l\u2019ignorance dans la\nmesure o\u00f9 ils sont sources d\u2019erreurs de la part des chercheur\u00b7euse\u00b7s.<\/p>\n\n            <p>Certains <strong>biais m\u00e9thodologiques<\/strong> peuvent au contraire \u00eatre conscientis\u00e9s par le\u00b7a\nchercheur\u00b7euse : ils sont alors \u00e0 l\u2019origine d\u2019une ignorance savante, pleinement\nconsciente d\u2019elle-m\u00eame. Bien que la\u00b7e chercheur\u00b7euse soit conscient\u00b7e de l\u2019existence\nde ces biais, son intention premi\u00e8re n\u2019est pas de g\u00e9n\u00e9rer de l\u2019ignorance.

Ainsi les\nm\u00e9thodologies de la recherche ont des angles morts, qui ne rel\u00e8vent aucunement\nd\u2019une manipulation ou d\u2019un laisser-aller, mais qui leur sont intrins\u00e8ques et\ngarantissent leur rigueur.<\/p>\n\n            <p>La recherche acad\u00e9mique conna\u00eet \u00e9galement des <strong>biais sociologiques<\/strong> (sexistes,\nracistes, homophobes, grossophobes, validistes, etc.) dont on peut supposer qu\u2019ils\norientent les choix qui sont faits concernant les sujets de recherche et influencent le\nrecrutement des personnes s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9es pour les mener. Les \u00e9tudes sur\nl\u2019endom\u00e9triose auraient-elles \u00e9t\u00e9 si tardives si cette maladie avait concern\u00e9 des\npersonnes de sexe masculin ?<\/p>\n\n            <p>Enfin, certains <strong>biais institutionnels<\/strong> g\u00e9n\u00e8rent de l\u2019ignorance par omission\ninvolontaire (undone science).

It is only in these cases that it is appropriate to appeal to worldviews, ideologies, power relations, cultural resistances, the unconscious, sociological burdens, or even psychopathology. How can these people believe such irrational things? The simple fact of asking this question and investigating with such a research program creates a complete asymmetry between science and other beliefs. Indeed, in each case, scientific truth ends up emerging by tearing itself away from cultures and circumstances, whereas beliefs remain attached to them. [...] Hence the unavoidable question when reading them: how were we, Westerners, able to invent a form of knowledge so radically original that it escapes all cultural conditions of production?1\u201d<sup><a href=\"#fn1\" id=\"ref1\" class=\"sup-link\">1<\/a><\/sup> (Latour, 1983).\n<\/blockquote>\n\n<p>Bruno Latour, noting the apparent objectivity of scientific research\u2014as only the sciences can claim access to truth in the modern Western paradigm\u2014questions here the modalities of scientific knowledge production. Are they as exempt from bias as they claim?<\/p>\n\n<p>The triumph of reason in the Age of Enlightenment allowed the scientific approach to stand as a bulwark against obscurantist religious beliefs and political absolutism, influencing how knowledge would be produced for centuries to come. While Cartesian reason and scientific thought established themselves as privileged access points to truth, the modalities of non-Western thought and knowledge production were branded as irrational and primitive, as shown by Aum\u00f4nier (2015)<sup><a href=\"#fn2\" id=\"ref2\" class=\"sup-link\">2<\/a><\/sup>. This dynamic continued into the 19th century with currents of thought such as positivism or scientism, according to which only the rationality of the scientific method could guarantee the reliability of the knowledge produced.<\/p>\n\n<p>In this context, universities, which were previously dependent on the Church, were reformed and became sites of knowledge production. The education provided there no longer aimed merely to \u201ctransmit the elements of a dominant value system<sup><a href=\"#fn3\" id=\"ref3\" class=\"sup-link\">3<\/a><\/sup>\u201d (Dum\u00e9ry et al., 1999) but intended to support the dynamic of societal progress by fostering research. This correlation between the development of a better understanding of worldly phenomena and scientific and technical progress was challenged in the 20th century as certain disciplines began to contest the uniqueness and objectivity of the scientific method. Philosophy of science, sociology of science, anthropology applied to science and technology, scientometrics, etc., became interested in the cultural conditions influencing scientific knowledge production and the characteristics of research itself. The dominant epistemology was shaken.<\/p>\n\n<p>In the 1990s, notably with the work of Robert Neel Proctor, a new discipline was born aiming to study the mechanisms of the social construction of ignorance, its maintenance, and its dissemination: <strong>agnotology<\/strong>. It distinguishes between phenomena stemming from an intentional versus an unintentional production of ignorance, noting that scientific research does not escape these dynamics. In a context where new research tends to deconstruct the belief in the objectivity of the sciences and questions the unshakable nature of scientific knowledge, agnotology studies the way in which knowledge production is necessarily accompanied by a production of ignorance. Academic research, to this day, is therefore not devoid of biases that participate in generating certain forms of ignorance.<\/p>\n\n<p>The objective of this study day is to shed light on the mechanisms inherent in the functioning of the university, and more generally of academic research, that participate in an unintentional production of ignorance. Thus, we will leave aside cases of fraud and breaches of scientific integrity that involve modalities of intentional production of ignorance to satisfy personal, political, economic, or careerist interests, <i>etc.<\/i>, to focus on the more subtle and invisibilized biases that help maintain ignorance in the scientific field.<\/p>\n\n<p>These biases are of various kinds:<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201c<strong>Research bias<\/strong> is \u201ca trend or deviation in the truth of results, inferences, and conclusions in a systematic way that can cause an error in the work. Biases can influence the research design, the collection and interpretation of data, or the communication of results. Although it is difficult or impossible to completely eliminate biases, measures can be taken to identify and minimize the most serious potential sources of bias<sup><a href=\"#fn4\" id=\"ref4\" class=\"sup-link\">4<\/a><\/sup>\u201d (InterAcademy Partnership, 2016). One can cite selection bias, information bias, analysis bias, sampling bias, procedural bias, response bias, etc. These biases\u2014unintentional and often unconscious\u2014permeate academic research and generate ignorance insofar as they are sources of error on the part of researchers.<\/p>\n\n<p>Certain <strong>methodological biases<\/strong> can, on the contrary, be made conscious by the researcher: they are then at the origin of a learned ignorance, fully self-aware. Although the researcher is aware of the existence of these biases, their primary intention is not to generate ignorance. Let us take, with Emmanuelle Fillion<sup><a href=\"#fn5\" id=\"ref5\" class=\"sup-link\">5<\/a><\/sup>, the example of medical research, which requires massive statistical power and extreme rigor, forcing the elimination of a certain number of phenomena and certain forms of non-academic knowledge. Thus, research methodologies have blind spots, which stem neither from manipulation nor negligence, but are intrinsic to them and guarantee their rigor.<\/p>\n\n<p>Academic research also experiences <strong>sociological biases<\/strong> (sexist, racist, homophobic, fatphobic, ableist, etc.) which can be assumed to guide the choices made regarding research subjects and influence the recruitment of the people selected to conduct them. Would studies on endometriosis have been so delayed if this disease had affected biological males?<\/p>\n\n<p>Finally, certain <strong>institutional biases<\/strong> generate ignorance through involuntary omission (undone science). The lack of human and financial resources in many research laboratories prevents the deepening of certain issues. Indeed, any research program, since it is limited in time and resources, must focus on certain fields\u2014which present a cultural, commercial, political, or other interest\u2014leaving others to lie fallow. Ignorance is, in this case, a sort of \u201clost ground<sup><a href=\"#fn6\" id=\"ref6\" class=\"sup-link\">6<\/a><\/sup>\u201d (Proctor and Schiebinger, 2008).<\/p>\n\n<p>While we are witnessing, with the development of the internet and social networks, an explosion of disinformation\u2014to the point that some researchers speak of a phenomenon of \u201cpost-truth<sup><a href=\"#fn7\" id=\"ref7\" class=\"sup-link\">7<\/a><\/sup>\u201d (Girel, 2018)\u2014it seems necessary to become aware of the blind spots of the scientific method and academic research, which today hold authority in terms of reliable knowledge production. This study day intends to show how the biases inherent in the functioning of the university institution and academic research participate in producing certain forms of ignorance that can impact civil society.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Scientific Committee<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Catherine Allamel-Raffin<\/strong>, University Professor in Epistemology and History of Science and Technology, University of Strasbourg, AHP-PReST Laboratory.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Judith Bouchet<\/strong>, PhD Student in Sociolinguistics, Jean Monnet University, Saint-\u00c9tienne, ECLLA Laboratory and LERI\u00b2.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manon Constant<\/strong>, PhD Student in Visual Arts, University of Strasbourg, ACCRA Laboratory and Jean Monnet University, Saint-\u00c9tienne, LERI\u00b2.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Katrin Gattinger<\/strong>, University Professor in Arts, University of Strasbourg, ACCRA Laboratory.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Julien Henry<\/strong>, PhD Student in Optics-Photonics, Jean Monnet University, Saint-\u00c9tienne, Hubert Curien Laboratory and LERI\u00b2.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nicolas Jalabert<\/strong>, PhD in Economics, University of Strasbourg, Bureau of Theoretical and Applied Economics.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Richard Serrano<\/strong>, PhD Student in Machine Learning, Jean Monnet University, Saint-\u00c9tienne, Hubert Curien Laboratory and LERI\u00b2.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"info-box\">\n<h2>Practical Information<\/h2>\n<p>This study day will take place on <strong>Friday, June 12, 2026<\/strong> at Jean Monnet University in Saint-\u00c9tienne, Loire (42), France.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Submission Guidelines<\/h3>\n<p>Paper proposals of <strong>approx. 2500 characters<\/strong> (4000 characters maximum) should be accompanied by a brief <strong>bio-bibliographical note<\/strong>.
