Résumé anglais Werner Ackermann and Renaud Dulong : The diffusion of scientific knowledge among adults. The authors have made the census of the research made in Europe pertaining to the diffusion of scientific knowledge. This field is governed by two different languages: on the one hand, diffusion is seen as an efficient instrument in acquiring the necessary learning for competence; on the other hand, it is analysed from the point of view of the social effects of a phenomenon which tends to maintain the hierarchy of knowledge within society. This differenciation serves as a key to the reading of sociological studies. It enables us to understand the context of the studies being done in this field.
