Camille Jaccard, « Réseaux et revendications : le rôle des étudiants dans la diffusion de la psychologie genevoise dans la France d’après-guerre », Histoire de l’éducation, ID : 10.4000/histoire-education.5267
This article describes the part played by students in the institutionalisation and professionalisation of psychology in post-war France in circulating the knowledge and practices developed by the Geneva School. On the one hand, it focuses specifically on how the expertise of Jean Piaget and his collaborators was harnessed by Parisian students to promote and defend their discipline. On the other hand, it shows how, in turn, the Bulletin du groupe d’études de psychologie de l’université de Paris helped to disseminate the teachings of the Geneva School in France, until Piaget himself was appointed to teach pedagogical psychology at the Faculty of Humanities at the Sorbonne in 1952. This analysis of Franco-Swiss debate in psychology specifically examines the students’ claims in terms of professional integration and research. It is based on an analysis of the first issues of the Bulletin and items drawn from the Geneva Archives.
