Collection : La Croisée des chemins

Research, heritage, controversy - these are just some of the forms the movement of ideas can take. The history of thought is not restricted to grandiose and impenetrable systems; it also includes a large volume of speeches, polemics, and conceptual migrations from one branch of thought to another. The "La croisée des chemins" collection publishes texts on the subject of intellectual history and its current impact: philosophy, political and legal theory, the aesthetics and challenges of scientific practices. It also sets out to promote foreign research in these areas and to make available to readers the key texts which are regarded as milestones in this history.

La croisée des chemins
In October 1842, the young Russian émigré Mikhail Bakunin published "Reaction In Germany" in Arnold Ruge's German Annals. This brilliant and brash contribution to the debates of the Hegelian Left uses Hegel's Logic as a logic of conflict which excludes all forms of external mediation between the opposing parties of Reaction and Revolution.

La croisée des chemins
Of the writing of the great engineer and mathematician Simon Stevin (Bruges 1548 - The Hague? 1620), it is predominantly his scientific work, striking for its diversity and intention to serve as practical handbooks, which has survived the passage of time. His numerous works, almost all in Dutch, cover areas as diverse as arithmetic and navigation.

La croisée des chemins
This volume traces the tortuous path and failure of human socio-biology, the pseudo-scientific theory which sparked debate between 1975 and 1985 and which established itself as a scientistic ideology amongst the body of theories on human nature.



Ann Thomson, Pierre-François Moreau
La croisée des chemins
Modernity, from its origins, has accorded a key role to passions. Whether hostile to Reason or, on the contrary, favourable towards it, passions are dangerous and fascinating and bring out the role of the body, desire, language and the imagination in human nature.
