| Popis: | 18 pages traduction de "Le partage de l'hypersensible : le surgissement des électro-hypersensibles dans l'espace public", Sciences sociales et santé, 2010, vol. 28, no3, pp. 5-33; The recent evolution of health and environmental controversies in industrialized countries has produced the emergence of new illnesses, often categorized as unexplained syndromes. This article examines how the collective movement of people with electromagnetic hypersensitivity has elevated the issue of electromagnetic waves to the point where it garnered, in the winter of 2007-2008, as much media impact as major issues such as asbestos, radioactivity, genetically modified organisms, or pesticides. This research, based on the study of the various actors, arguments, and accounts of people with electrohypersensitivity, proposes a reformulation of the theme of intuition in the world accessible to the senses, an indispensable step in the symmetrical analysis of controversies about medical categories and the distribution of individual and collective experiences |
