THEMATIC COLLECTION:
MAINTENANCE & ITS KNOWLEDGES
Guest edited by Jérôme Denis, Daniel Florentin, David Pontille
Dirigé par Jérôme Denis, Daniel Florentin et David Pontille, le dossier thématique “Maintenance & Its Knowledges”, publié en avril 2024 dans ESTS – Engaging Science, Technology & Society, met en lumière les vertus épistémiques de la maintenance en examinant une dimension encore sous-estimée et inexplorée : les formes de connaissances et savoirs associés aux activités de maintenance. Les recherches présentées dans la série d’articles de ce dossier thématique examinent l’expertise que requiert la maintenance et la réparation dans une variété de configurations, en se penchant à la fois sur les « connaissances mobilisées en matière de maintenance » et les « connaissances de la maintenance ».
Guest edited by Jérôme Denis, Daniel Florentin and David Pontille, the thematic collection “Maintenance & Its Knowledges”, published in April 2024 in ESTS – Engaging Science, Technology & Society, highlights the epistemic virtues of maintenance by examining a still underestimated and unexplored dimension: the forms of knowledge associated with maintenance activities. The research presented in the series of articles in this thematic collection examines the expertise required for maintenance and repair in a variety of configurations addressing both ‘knowledge in maintenance’ and ‘knowledge of maintenance’.
