Biography
Professor at the University of Burgundy, researcher at the Center Georges Chevrier - Knowledge: standards and sensibilities (UMR 7366 Cnrs - uB). Anthropology of memory and heritage: ways of being in time - Heritage as an art of representation and as an art of attention - Ethnographic commitment - The pragmatist gesture in the social sciences. My research is based on two closely related axes: that of a socio-political anthropology of the ways of being "in time", considered in a pragmatist perspective; that of the researcher's expertise and commitment, from a "non-authoritarian" perspective. My investigations led me to explore the work of memory and heritage accomplished by ordinary people in the iron Lorraine, an industrial region hit by the crisis. I am currently interested in the dynamics generated by the intangible cultural heritage and the emerging forms of "citizen heritage".
