Concept

To help student, teacher, and professional users of Cairn.info to navigate our platform, the site offers dossiers put together by partner organizations (such as the journals Le Carnet Psy and Nectart and Books magazine) on themes related to current events in the humanities and social sciences.

 

Access

Dossiers are freely accessible for 30 days after their release, following which time they are reserved for members of our client institutions and Cairn Pro subscribers.

Structure

Each dossier presented by Cairn.info and its partners includes:

  • an editorial written by our partners introducing the particular theme;
  • a selection of three in-depth and possibly critical articles from Cairn.info’s partner journals;
  • and a complementary reading list to further explore the theme on Cairn.info.

Translations

A selection of the dossiers is also translated from French into English and Spanish to attract and retain international users. This serves to direct an international audience to particularly interesting and/or innovative articles published in French-language journals.
