Intercultural problems involved in the application contexts of norms



Led by  Sylvain Lavelle (CETS, ICAM, Lille, Fr.)and Philippe Goujon (FUNDP, Namur, Be.)

 

The articulation of universal norms and their
contexts of application raises a purely intercultural problem of
adjustment of the rational justifications and social appropriations. The
concept of "interculturalness", symmetrical to that of
acculturation, has been explored at length from a mainly methodological
point of view by the field of cultural anthropology. It is appropriate to
draw all the conclusions from this perspective with regard to the issue
of ethical and democratic governance of the norms and standards of the
Internet. In particular, we will analyse and question the effective
processes of anticipation, translation and adaptation, if not imposition,
of the norms and standards of universal reach to a variety of cultural
contexts (Europe, America, Asia). More specifically, in the case of the
Internet, we will focus our attention on: a) the methods of designers to
anticipate users’ cultures; b) web users’ methods for participating in
the transformation of the cultures of innovation and invention; and c)
the criticism of the assumption of a universal regulation in the form of
charters or codes.
