<br/><br/> ‪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. ‪
