The fourth seminar in the 2007-2008 'Regards croisés', Concepts and Practices in Contemporary French Philosophy series took place Tuesday, March 18th, 2008 at The American University of Paris.


Claude-Olivier Doron (CNRS) led the seminar with a paper entitled "The Animal Roots of Biopolitics: Zootechnics of Government".


The 'Regards croisés' seminar series in 'Concepts and Practices in Contemporary French Philosophy' presents different French and Anglo-saxon perspectives on twentieth and twenty-first century French philosophy around the concepts of 'Local, Vital, Legal'.  Papers are presented by specialists in contemporary French philosophy as well as by those who are engaged in examining the impact of French philosophy within other domains and disciplines: literature, law, politics, art, and the sciences. The joint seminar in 'Concepts and Practices in Contemporary French Philosophy' is organized by the Critical Theory Collective at The American University of Paris in partnership with the Centre International d'Étude de la Philosophie Française Contemporaine (CIEPFC) at the École normale supérieure and Columbia University Paris - Reid Hall.
