On the first semester 2021 at the ENS - PSL, the general theme of the interdisciplinary seminar on "Critical Current Affairs" is: "Sciences and Society".

Can we treat people in prison? Is a memorial reconciliation possible between France and Algeria? What is the conflict in the Eastern Mediterranean about?  

This is the diversity of questions that the Critical Current Affairs seminar of the École Normale Supérieure - PSL aims to analyze.

5 sessions open to all are planned between November and December

  • November 18, 2021: "The general public and science: between misunderstanding and confusion regarding the scientific process and outreach"
