The contemporary uses of reflexivity: A slow construction (1918-1968) - 2024.

Following their introduction in seventeenth-century England and nineteenth-century France, “reflexivity” and “réflexivité” embarked on two different, yet structured, trajectories in the early twentieth century. While the term “reflexivity” was mainly used in logical positivism, “réflexivité” was primarily associated with the French humanities and a philosophy of the subject. The concept of reflexivity, as we understand it today, only emerged in the post-war period through a complex exchange between English- and French-speaking academic circles.
