Science and Technology
Studies in Asia
14.00 - 16.00 (Paris Time)>> Registration <<Three issues are worth mentioning as they illustrate these divergent paths and should be thefocus of a discussion about their origins and their consequences. First, STS scholars in Asia
include in their analysis concerns about the long-term history of knowledge and technology
in the region. Second, they have launched important projects mobilizing history to investigate
the transformation of non-Western forms of knowledge. Third, Asian STS resonates with themore general trend toward studies of global circulations but tends to build upon a broader
understanding of governance and regulation.
Beyond the obvious need for a discussion about the validity and limits of such a description,
the panel we seek to organize aims at identifying frontier themes and theoretical tools
deemed important to problematize “the” global, its relations to local practices and policies,
the multiple/alternative modes of innovation and intervention it entails.
This event is organised in the framework of the first annual meeting of the Euro-Asian
research team - Capitalisms, technologies, societies and Health, to be held from July 7th toJuly 13th 2022, followed by two others in 2023 and 2024. The general goal of the project isto revisit the relations between technologies and societies by focusing on health issues. Thisannual meeting, bringing together the project’s research team on the Condorcet Campus,
should help to communicate the team’s work to a wider public, strengthen collaborations
within the research project, report on the first results and set the next steps.

Robert Boyer (Professor, EHESS)
Robert Boyer is economist and associate researcher at the Institute of the Americas
since January 2012 and member of its scientific committee since January 2016. His
main research fields are “Régulation” theory, an analysis of the transformations ofcapitalisms, Asian and Latin American capitalisms, European and other regional
integrations, Financial crises, History of economic theories, Innovation and growth
analysis, Institutional and historical macroeconomics, Labor markets and wage labornexus and Variety of capitalisms and international comparisons. In October 2020 hepublished Les capitalisms à l’épreuve de la pandémie. In this essay, the author
provides an understanding of the processes set in motion in 2020 and sheds light on
the field of possibilities. The dislocation of international relations, the break-up of theeuro zone, the destabilization of the social state and the rise of populism are not unlikely. However, a major
shift towards a new model built on the complementarity between education, training, health and culture, which
would meet citizens’ demand for solidarity and the requirements of the ecological transition, is not excluded
either.
