In the age of enlightenment\, Rousseau looked at the sciences and technics of his time with exceptional and ferocious criticism. Only Botany\, pointing to a superficial contemplation\, escapes the dark omens of the citoyen de Genè\;ve.

\n

After three hundred years of his birth\, we would like to know: is the word of Rousseau about science still audible? What sense may have today the pages that Rousseau devoted to the analysis of the Sciences of his time? Were his critic premonitions fulfilled? And how did his work\, despite the anti-scientific reproaches that appear here and there\, get to be decisive in the emergence of future human sciences\, from anthropology to language sciences\, from psychology to pedagogy\, from economics to politics?
