Since the end of the 19th century, the labor sciences have formed a vast, unstable and heterogeneous body of knowledge aimed at understanding, measuring, organizing, regulating and transforming human work. Occupational physiology and psychology, ergonomics, sociology, economics, management, occupational medicine, engineering, statistics, social law, but also administrative knowledge and various forms of expertise applied to work: these multiple approaches have developed in close interaction with the worlds of production, administrations, social movements, companies and training and research institutions. This issue of the Cahiers d'histoire du Cnam is part of a new historiographical approach to the "sciences of work", and proposes a return to the sources.
