About HumanitiesPlus IRL
The UChicago-CNRS HumanitiesPlus International Research Laboratory (HumanitiesPlus IRL), launched in January 2024, is designed to provide dedicated support for collaborative research opportunities on the campus of the University between the academic community in France (the CNRS and French universities) and the UChicago humanities and social sciences divisions. It aims to promote transnational and interdisciplinary research in philosophy, literature, linguistics, philology and the arts – with an opening towards the social sciences, especially on questions of democracy, environmental and medical humanities. It is part of the large strategic partnership between the CNRS and the University of Chicago institutionalized by the creation of a new International Research Center (IRC Discovery).
The HumanitiesPlus IRL is based on a convergence of academic approaches: research grounded in disciplines yet open to interdisciplinarity (and to the way in which this interdisciplinarity can recompose disciplines); a comparable emphasis on studies connected to specific spaces and contexts (area studies), as well as on comparative and transnational approaches; a shared desire to encourage research projects that shed light on and respond to major contemporary societal and political issues. The HumanitiesPlus IRL’s five main research clusters are the following:
