Stratégie d'établissement

The CNRS has traditionally implemented cross-disciplinary approaches in ethnoarchaeology and the anthropology of technology that are based on field studies in France (Pincevent) or in inter-tropical regions. This research follows in the footsteps of André Leroi-Gourhan, Georges-André Haudricourt and Robert Cresswell, examining the cultural nature of materials and forms of savoir-faire which has led to teams collaborating internationally and to the creation of highly dynamic journals and book collections. It should however be noted that collaborative projects involving archaeology and anthropology researchers have been less active for a number of years. The aim of the CPJ is to revive this methodology and extend its analyses over the very long term, using a comparative approach to all areas which human societies and successive cultures have developed in. Technical intentions and the singularity of practices embedded in specific socio-cultural contexts, enable researchers to understand the ways in which man shapes his environment and how knowledge and savoir-faire contribute to the construction of identities, cultures and social relationships.

Stratégie du laboratoire d'accueil

The ArScAn joint research unit (UMR 7041) with its ANTET team (Anthropology of Techniques, Spaces and Territories in the Pliocene and in the Pleistocene) and the TEMPS joint research unit (UMR 8068) and its Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Paleothnologists team are developing research that brings the two disciplines together to study in Eurasian, African and American fields. They are thus ideally placed to host this CPJ. The PALOC joint research unit (UMR 208) strongly focuses on the material dimensions of social practices through the MNHN's collections and in the great tradition of the relationship between techniques and cultures. The work of the CRCAO joint research unit (UMR 8155) focuses on the whole of East Asia, covering all periods from the most ancient to the most contemporary. This UMR is developing approaches that combine anthropology and archaeology with a strong focus on material culture and could also be a beneficial host for this CPJ

Stratégie Internationale

The Chairholder will be expected to implement actions and set up partnerships in the given thematic field and particularly to commit to submitting a project in the framework of European calls for proposals like ERC, Horizon Europe Consortium, etc. during the 5 years of his/her contract.

Résumé du projet scientifique

Technical practices and the cultural contexts which they are embedded in are traditionally studied from the standpoint of present-day and subactual societies even though the right tools do exist to approach technical intentions over the long term (from the Palaeolithic to the present day). The interface between the anthropology of techniques and ethnoarchaeology is now shedding new light on the definition of technical know-how along with the techno-typological and morpho-functional evolution of tools. These new approaches make it possible for researchers to explore the cultural and evolutionary aspects of human practices by giving them a temporal depth, particularly in Africa, Asia and the Americas. Archaeological documentation will be used to analyse the social uses of artefacts, the representations that led to their production and the operational chains and technical systems involved by using a comparative intercultural approach.

Résumé du projet d'enseignement

Teaching will be discussed according to the site which the successful candidate is assigned to. He/she will be involved in teaching on existing courses at each site.

Environnement Financier

• Total financé (dont package ANR) : 200 k€
• Total du projet : 0 k€

Diffusion scientifique

The results will be disseminated via world-class scientific productions like publications, software, patents, and so forth. The project will also communicate with a wide range of target audiences including the scientific community, the media, decision-makers, the general public, schools, etc., applying an appropriate schedule. Specific tools may be developed like websites, newsletters, meetings, international conferences, summer schools and other conferences.

Science ouverte

The CNRS has adopted a strong policy in favour of open science. Open science consists in making research results "as accessible as possible and as closed as necessary". To achieve this, the CNRS objective is for 100% of the texts of publications resulting from the work of its units to be in open access, particularly through researchers submitting them to HAL. The data produced should also be made available and reusable unless specific restrictions apply. In addition, the guidelines on the individual evaluation of researchers have been revised to conform with the DORA declaration, to be more qualitative and to take all facets of a researcher's work into account.

Science et société

The relationship between science and society is now recognized as a full dimension of scientific activity. The project will develop this dimension in synergy with all the partners. The resulting research work will contribute to informing public decision-making. Participatory science initiatives may be initiated with actors from the project's socio-economic and cultural eco-system.

Indicateurs

In particular, the CPJ's activities will be assessed on the basis of scientific output (publications, software, patents, etc.), institutional and private partnerships with formal contracts, international influence, the promotion and dissemination of work to multi-disciplinary scientific communities, innovation and its transfer to society and scientific dissemination to non-specialist audiences..
