A book by Vincent-Arnaud Chappe
For twenty years, the law of non-discrimination has been considerably extended. The qualification of « discrimination » is currently used in many instances to denounce numerous unequal treatments.

Thesis title: The forms of valuation of research.
Supervisor: David Pontille.
