François Dubet (born in 1946) is a Sociologue French, teaching with the Université of Bordeaux and director of studies to the École of the high studies in social sciences (EHESS). He is the author of many dedicated works to the youthful marginality, the school and the institutions.

Contributions in sociology

Its principal idea, largely developed in many its works ( Sociology of the experiment , At the school , In which company do we live? , and the Decline of the institution ) and inherited the sociology of sensitivity Tourainienne, is the dismantling of the institutional figure. For Dubet, modernity had created institutions, political apparatuses which organized cognitive executives the possible ones (see on this subject work of Emile Durkheim or Mary Douglas on the standardizing valence of the institutions) and by there the actions of the individuals enjoignaient. For Dubet, we entered the late Modernité, long process socio-history promoter of the figure subjective and responsible for the déconstruction of the institution. Whereas the latter could formerly be regarded as a stable and harmonious whole of principles and become inveterate statutory values, it today lost its coherence very as much as its propensity to normalize the social conduits.

François Dubet in particular exported this paradigm in his work on the school or more recently on the question of the injustices to work. From an ideological point of view, François Dubet relays a thought of moderate left and reformist, particularly committed against the social inequalities. He works, moreover for this reason, with the reflections of the group of intellectuals of the Republic of the Ideas , taken along by Pierre Rosanvallon and Thierry Pech.
