This web-site, the first
version of which was created in 2020, is
dedicated to people interested in the
scientifical, technological and
philosophical research program known as " course-of-action
" (with its three fundamental theoretical
hypotheses, enaction, preflective
consciousness and activity-sign,
its observatory and its workshop),
either to take part in it, or to draw a part
of their inspiration from it, or to contest
it. It presents a selection of texts, past
or current, not easy to find, written by
myself, alone or among other authors. Since
the last updating of this first
version of this site, in 2022, except
concerning its philosophical part, this
research program has been essentially
developed and renewed by other authors than
myself. If the updating of my list of
publications is no more necessary, the main
function of this site remains. Hence this
new version.
The book Le cours d'action:
Méthode développée [Theureau, 2006 ( 2006-JT-057 and 2006-JT-057-Illustrations
)] has been completed by three other
books out of print : Le cours d'action:
Méthode élémentaire [Theureau, 2004 (2004-JT-O50
and 2004-JT-O50-Illustrations)
), Le cours d'action: Méthode réfléchie
[Theureau, 2009 ( 2009-JT-060 )] and Le
cours d'action : L'Énaction et l'Expérience
[Theureau, 2015 ( 2015-JT-068)].
I also recently wrote texts
that will be published in one way or another
or modified and published in collaboration
with other authors. They are placed on this
site in order to be more wildly discussed In
the future, as rhey were recently by
the participants in the workshop "Fenêtre
sur cours" (Sept. 2025, Dijon) :
-
a reference paper
about the present state, current
development and future of the course of
action research program during
this "Fenêtre sur cours" workshop (
Addendum,
July 2026) :
Doc-Ref-Site ;
-
a new version of a
book project : So what ? Elements of
effective and realistic ethics and
political thinking of cosmopolitical
responsibility, emancipation and justice
within the limits of a research program
about human activity and other
associated research programs :
Quefaire-V8-Site .
