Episteme. Journal of the Jean Piaget Center
Episteme, Journal of the Jean Piaget Center is an open-access scholarly publication co-edited by the Jean Piaget Center at the University of Geneva (Switzerland) and the DIPHE laboratory, affiliated with the Department of Developmental, Educational, and Vulnerability Psychology at University Lumière Lyon 2 (France). Its mission is to sustain and renew the epistemological and scientific inquiries that shaped Jean Piaget’s work, by fostering an interdisciplinary and critical approach to knowledge related to development, education, and the processes through which understanding is constructed.
In a context where disciplinary boundaries tend to become increasingly rigid, and where the transmission of knowledge is often disconnected from reflection on its conditions of production, Episteme seeks to provide a rigorous, open, and intellectually demanding platform for scholarly publication. The journal welcomes contributions that explore the historical, theoretical, and practical dimensions of knowledge, engaging explicitly or implicitly with Piagetian problematics—whether through their deepening, critical examination, or reinterpretation in light of contemporary research.
The journal's general orientation is structured around four main thematic axes, attentive to the contemporary needs of both research and practice:
- Epistemology: critical reflection on models of knowledge, the genesis of concepts, scientific normativity, and the relationships between disciplines.
- Developmental Psychology: investigation of the processes, structures, and dynamics of human development, considering the complexity of interaction, socialization, and practice.
- History of Knowledge: analysis of the historical processes involved in the constitution, transformation, and dissemination of scientific knowledge.
- Education: study of learning and intervention processes, as well as educational and pedagogical systems, from developmental, didactic, clinical, or institutional perspectives.
The journal will publish peer-reviewed scientific articles through a double-blind review process. It accepts submissions in French, English, and Spanish, in accordance with international academic publishing standards and in compliance with the ethical principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). All content will be available in open and free access, with no submission or publication fees for authors.
