| Summary, etc. | RésuméPour comprendre le climat intellectuel des années 1950 et 1960, il est nécessaire de saisir les enjeux qui passionnent les contemporains : la conviction d’assister à une mutation fondamentale de l’ordre politique international et la nécessité de construire des conceptions entièrement nouvelles de sociétés qu’on s’accordait auparavant à pré-senter comme primitives et immobiles. Confrontées aux mouvements sociaux et politiques qui transforment l’Afrique à partir de la seconde guerre mondiale, les bureau-craties coloniales ont modifié leurs perspectives avant les chercheurs. Cet article mon-tre comment les administrateurs coloniaux ont repensé l’ordre social et comment les chercheurs en sciences sociales ont pris le relais en proposant de nouvelles formes d’analyse. Il s’attache à deux exemples en particulier : la réflexion économique sur le développement et la théorie de la modernisation. Mais il insiste aussi sur la contri-bution des enquêteurs de terrain qui observent une réalité plus complexe. Si les cher-cheurs ont été amenés à répondre à une demande d’expertise qui précédait en fait la constitution d’un discours scientifique solidement établi, on voudrait montrer ici qu’ils ont cependant réussi à proposer des interprétations nouvelles du changement social. |
| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | To understand the intellectual atmosphere of the 1950s and 1960s, one must first grasp the passions of the era : a chance to observe a fundamental change in world political order and the need to develop entirely new conceptions of societies once thought to be static and primitive. Such thinking emerged first not in the academy but in colonial bureaucracies confronted with social and political movements in Africa during and after the war. This article describes the way officials rethought social order and how social scientists later took up and promoted new modes of analysis. It focuses on two examples : development economics and modernization theory. But it notes the caution of scholars doing fieldwork, who observed a more complex reality. Scholars responded to demands for useful knowledge before the knowledge base was secure, but even so they helped consolidate new visions of social change. |
