La Parapsychological Association (dont je suis l'actuel président) vient de publier un nouveau numéro de son bulletin Mindfield, dont je suis co-éditeur. Avec un peu de retard, ce dernier numéro préparé en 2020 est le second qui traite de la question du "boundary-work" (travail de frontiérisation).
J'ai réalisé plusieurs contributions dans ce numéro :
Evrard, R. (2021). On being a skeptic. Mindfield, 12(3), 98-100.
De Foe, A., Glazier, J., Evrard, R. (2021). Collaborating and dialoguing. A consideration of the status of psi in science. Mindfield, 12(3), 116-129.

This issue is dedicated to the late Erlendur Haraldsson and his remarkable wide scope of research interests, as documented by PA Vice President Peter Mulacz, in an obituary that is both informative and sympathetic.
Genaro Camboim Lula performs an anthropological study comparing Brazilian interest in the paranormal to secular parapsychology in France. Christopher Senn digs into archives to link remote viewing with Pentecostalism and other religious and spiritual movements. Carlos Alvarado covers neglected bibliographies and historical research, exploring a boundary between “brand new” and “old-fashioned” research, which we must unravel to broaden our thinking. Alexander Foe, Jake Glazier, and Renaud Evrard discuss the huge divisions between advocates and counter advocates of parapsychological research, and especially the opportunities to fill the gaps and encourage collaborations.
