Conflict Groups and Disputatio

Intra- and Extra-Academic Lines of Conflict around the Parisian University, c. 1300

Within the framework of Collaborative Research Centre 1150 “Cultures of Decision-making”, subproject A02 investigates the development of scholastic discourses and practices of decision-making as well as the social and institutional environments in which they were embedded.

The main focus lies on interactions between academic practices and theoretical concepts of decision-making, influence of academic concepts and practices on extra-academic procedures of decision-making, and decisions and conflict groups.

The workshop’s aim was to identify relevant questions within this field of research. In order to do so, we focused on a specific historical situation in which several aspects highly relevant for our research can be found. As a point of departure, the workshop concentrated on intra- and extra-academic lines of conflict in the surroundings of the Parisian university (c. 1300).
