This Bibliography is part of the major research project dedicated to the European vocation and achievements of Pierre Werner, a former Prime Minister, Finance Minister and Foreign Minister of Luxembourg, unanimously recognised as one of the architects of Economic and Monetary Union.

The history of the National Telecommunications Network for Technology, Education and Research, born in 1993, had its roots in the 1980s, when scientific actors started to build networks in France, in a simultaneous but still dispersed way.

En prenant pour point de départ la neutralité de l’Internet, objet d’un vaste débat commencé aux États-Unis en 2003, cet article souhaite montrer que les questions techniques, celles qui portent sur les architectures et modèles de l’Internet, ont des implications économiques et politiques, et convoquent des valeurs et imaginaires puissants et divergents selon les acteurs. Ces réflexions ne peuvent être dissociées de celles sur les usages et les pratiques du Web et sur les rapports de pouvoir à l’œuvre dans l’économie Internet.

For history researchers, it is not a needless luxury to consider from time to time the content and the significance of the basic concepts they use, certainly if they have the ambition to interpret and/or explain history in addition to purely describing it. This self-reflection, compelled by the annually recurring dialogue with educational philosophers (cf. Smeyers & Depaepe, 2006),2 need not necessarily place an emphasis on philosophical abstraction but can just as well start from an examination of the history of one’s own research. Such an approach need not succumb to navel-gazing.
