- Title
L'institutionnalisation de la sociologie au Québec. Entre rupture et continuité.
- Authors
Lepage, Jean-François
- Abstract
For many, the history of sociology in the province of Québec begins with the creation of the first francophone department of sociology at Université Laval in 1943. It is commonly held that this institutionalization represents a break between a social ideology marked by the Catholic religion, and a sociological practice concerned with scientific rigor and objectivity. Recent works have shown that different points of view have been taken for this historical interpretation, emphasizing the inherited tradition from pre-institutional sociology, and the continuity between these two periods. In this article, the author uses the field theory of Bourdieu to analyse the break thesis and its criticisms, and to sketch a new interpretation of the transformations occurring in the field of sociology during this institutionalization.
