Créée par Joseph Wresinski en 1972, et depuis constituée en réseau international, l’Université populaire Quart Monde s’inscrit dans la lignée des travaux de praticiens de l’émancipation tels Paulo Freire, Saül Alinsky et Danilo Dolci. Exclus de la société et citoyens soucieux de lutter contre la misère y élaborent ensemble des savoirs facteurs de changements sociaux. Le présent ouvrage s’articule autour d’un axe central : le rapport entre pouvoir, savoir et émancipation. Il interroge l’histoire, le projet, l’ingénierie, les principes de ce lieu où se construit un « penser ensemble », préalable indispensable à tout « vivre ensemble ». Les processus de construction du savoir et d’émancipation sont montrés dans leur émergence, en s’appuyant sur la réflexion et l’analyse des participants qui vivent dans la grande pauvreté.

This volume covers the global history of the Lysenko controversy, while exploring in greater depth the background of D. Lysenko’s career and influence in the USSR. By presenting the rise and fall of T.D. Lysenko in a variety of aspects—his influence upon art, unrecognized predecessors, and the extent to which genetics continued in the USSR even while he was in power, and the revival of his reputation today—the authors provide a fresh perspective on one of the most notorious episodes in the history of science.

This book uses the reaction of a number of biologists in the United States and Great Britain to provide an overview of one of the most important controversies in Twentieth Century biology, the “Lysenko Affair.” The book is written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of history/history of science. It covers a number of topics which are relevant to understanding the sources and dimensions of the Lysenko controversy, including the interwar eugenics movement, the Scopes Trial, the popularity of Lamarckism as a theory of heredity prior to the synthesis of genetics and Natural Selection, and the Cold War. The book focuses particularly on portrayals—both positive and negative—of Lysenko in the popular press in the U.S. and Europe, and thus by extension the relationship between scientists and society. Because the Lysenko controversy attracted a high level of interest among the lay community, it constitutes a useful historical example to consider in context with current topics that have received a similar level of attention, such as Intelligent Design or Climate Change.

"Epigenetics, a new field in biology, has shown that in some instances organisms can inherit characteristics acquired by their ancestors during their lifetimes, a view that was discredited during most of the twentieth century. Trofim Lysenko, a Russian agronomist long considered a charlatan, was a strong advocate of the inheritance of acquired characteristics. In the last few years a number of Russian science writers and scientists have claimed that epigenetics proves that Lysenko was right after all. This book evaluates that claim."--Provided by publisher. Lysenko became one of the most notorious figures in twentieth-century science after his genetic theories were discredited decades ago. Yet some scientists now claim that discoveries in epigenetics prove that he was right after all. Loren Graham reopens the case, to determine whether new developments in molecular biology validate Lysenko’s claims.
