L’intelligence artificielle est déjà dans nos vies. Elle est surtout à l’âge des possibles et des levées de fonds. Chacun tente d’anticiper ce qu’elle fait ou fera à son secteur d’activité. Parce que les usages envisagés sont pléthoriques, et les moyens dédiés, considérables, d’un côté, que la culture de l’innovation est au cœur des pratiques du monde médical, de l’autre, le secteur de la santé devrait être en pointe dans l’appropriation des outils de l’IA. Pourtant, l’implantation concrète de ces derniers reste faible. L’enquête menée dans cet ouvrage permet d’en explorer les raisons, avant tout sociologiques : la santé est aussi un monde institutionnalisé dont les règles de fonctionnement et de validation des savoirs entrent en contradiction avec les logiques de l’IA et en freine l’élan Directeur adjoint du Centre Émile-Durkheim, Olivier Cousin est professeur des universités à l''université de Bordeaux. Ses travaux portent sur les transformations du travail contemporain. Directeur de recherche CNRS à Sciences Po, Andy Smith est chercheur au Centre Émile-Durkheim.

Alors que la quasi-totalité des ouvrages sur l''Union européenne s''enlisent dans un débat stérile pour savoir si elle est dominée par ses grands Etats membres ou par la Commission, celui-ci déplace la discussion par la proposition suivante : l''Union doit être conçue comme un gouvernement composé de l''ensemble des acteurs en Europe qui participent à la définition et au traitement de « problèmes européens ». Ce gouvernement, depuis plus de vingt ans, structure une partie majeure des décisions prises dans cet espace par les pouvoirs publics, l''action collective et les entreprises. Il comporte également deux caractéristiques majeures et méconnues - une carence d''arènes intersectorielles et une tendance à dépolitiser sa propre action - qui ont une forte incidence sur la légitimité instable de « la construction européenne ». Fruit de vingt ans de recherches, la sociologie politique d''un tel gouvernement développée dans ces pages cherche à identifier et à expliquer les récurrences, les cohérences et les contradictions de ce gouvernement. Dans cette deuxième édition, les hypothèses sont étayées à la fois par les enquêtes empiriques portant sur la comparaison longitudinale de six « problèmes européens » et par une bibliographie exhaustive et actualisée. En s''adressant aussi bien au chercheur et à l''étudiant, qu''à l''acteur ou au simple citoyen, l''ouvrage propose ainsi un nouveau paradigme d''interprétation de l''intégration européenne.
