In collaboration with les Presses Universitaires de Lyon and Seuil editions.

Presented by : Anne Verjus. With : Daniel Defert and Jeffrey Weeks.

Jeffrey Weeks became politically involved during the seventies, both as an activist and as an academic, and was among the first to do research on sexuality – a suspicious topic that will only become legitimized after the terrible AIDS crisis.
On the other side of the Channel, Michel Foucault started working on the same topics at the same time. Daniel Defert, who shared his life and his research, was in the forefront of the fight against AIDS.
We will be reviewing a major upheaval in mores, discourses, and scientific research.

Reservations are closed. You can still show up on the day of the event and take your last-minute tickets.
