 Ce panel veut rassembler les chercheurs qui s’intéressent à la question de l’influence des intérêts économiques sur la science, la politique et la régulation, autour de 3 axes de recherche, (1) en discutant les notions et les cadres analytiques utilisés pour étudier l’influence industrielle (capture, conflit d’intérêts, biais, production de l’ignorance, hégémonie) ; (2) en analysant les mécanismes de l’influence (stratégies de financement, portes tournantes, ghostwriting, lobbying, menaces ou représailles) ; et (3) en étudiant la production de politiques qui visent à contrôler l’influence, ainsi que les mobilisations qu’elle suscite.Les propositions, de 250 mots maximum, devront résumer l’argument déployé, la méthodologie mobilisée, ainsi que sa contribution aux réflexions proposées par le panel. Attention, la date limite de soumission est fixée au 1er février 2019.Liste de panels acceptés : https://www.4s2019.org/accepted-open-panels/Pour la soumission des abstracts : https://convention2.allacademic.com/one/ssss/4s19/N’hésitez pas à nous écrire si vous avez des questions, nous attendons vos propositions avec impatience !

Corporate Influence on Science and RegulationThe influence of corporate interests – most notably from the cigarette, chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries – on science and on health and environmental regulation has attracted a growing media and public attention. STS research has explored this issue in different ways, for example through the analysis of the impact of industry-funding on scientific publications, the study of corporate-biases in the production regulatory standards, or more broadly by questioning the commercialization of science. Lately, considerations on the politics, and power relationships, at play in the production of scientific knowledge have been renewed by the emergence of a “new political sociology of science”. This panel wants to bring together researchers taking on board the question of corporate influence on science and public regulation, and proposes to do so by following three lines of research: (1) first, by opening up a discussion on the notions and theoretical frameworks used to analyze industry or business influence (including, but not limited to: regulatory capture, conflict of interest, bias, production of ignorance, hegemony); (2) second, by studying the social mechanisms it involves (for instance, funding strategies, revolving-door dynamics, ghostwriting, lobbying, or threats and retaliations); (3) third, by analyzing production of policies aiming at controlling corporate influence, and the social mobilizations it triggers. More generally, the panel aims at helping the development of inter-sectoral and international comparison, and consequently welcomes papers that analyze the aforementioned corporate strategies in various industrial sectors and in various geographical areas of the global North and South.
