DESCRIPTION:The College of Humanities and the Laboratory for the Histor
 y of Science and Technology are pleased to invite you to the second sessi
 on of Pierre Mounier’s monthly seminar on Governing Digital Knowledge
  Infrastructures.\n\n \n\nTue. 30th November\, 2.30pm\, Room INN 128\, re
 gistration compulsory (see below)\n\n \n\nBig Science and Research Infras
 tructures in Europe: History and current trends\n\n \n\nAbstract\n\nThe E
 uropean landscape of research infrastructures rapidly changed over the cou
 rse of the last 20 years with an increase in the number of infrastructures
  under development\, but also the progressive setup of a coordinated polic
 y at the continental level through several instruments: \n\n\n	a scientif
 ic cooperation framework: the European Research Area (ERA)\; \n	a specifi
 c funding instrument in the recent research framework programs of the Euro
 pean Commission: the “Infradev” calls for proposals\; \n	a forum that
  gathers research ministries of the member states to align their investmen
 t policies: the European Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructures (ESFR
 I)\; \n	and a legal status specifically dedicated to research infrastruct
 ures in European law: the European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERI
 C). \n\n\nThis recent evolution is building upon a longer history of “b
 ig science” programs in Europe in the context of European integration af
 ter the second world war\, starting with the building of facilities for ph
 ysics in the 1950s (CERN\, EURATOM). This historical context\, detailed in
  a recent publication: \n\nKatharina C. Cramer and Olof Hallonsten (eds.)
 \, Big Science and Research Infrastructures in Europe\, Northampton\, Edw
 ard Elgar Publishing\, 2020\, https://doi.org/10.4337/9781839100017 \n\n
 will guide us during this seminar session\, dedicated to European research
  infrastructures and how they shape knowledge production on the continent.
  The historical analysis provided by the book will be put into perspective
  with an analysis of the ESFRI framework as it developed during the recent
  years.\n\n \n\nThe workshop will take place at INN 128 on Tuesday the 
 30th of November from 2.30 PM CEST.\n\n \n\nRegistration to participate i
 s free but compulsory (13 persons max\, first come first served):\n\nhttps
