John Law, CRESC director, gave a plenary at a day conference on December 17th at the Ecole des Mines de Paris. The workshop, Debordements: une journée scientifique en l'honneur de Michel Callon, brought together scholars from France and overseas to celebrate the work of Michel Callon on his retirement.

Law revisited Callon's oeuvre, and in particular his work on scallops and fishermen, and his collective work on Acting in a Common World, in a talk entitled 'Uncommon Worlds: or Notes on Fish and Ponds'.
