Womit lässt sich dann aber ihre systematische Untersuchung rechtfertigen? Ausgehend von der Differenzierung zwischen Abweichungen, Ausnahmen und Sonderfällen, hebt dieser Beitrag drei epistemische Beiträge außergewöhnlicher Fälle hervor. Erstens verdeutlichen außergewöhnliche Fälle die Grenzen von Kategorien und Klassifizierungen. Ihr Beitrag ist kritisch. Zweitens verweisen außergewöhnliche Fälle auf neue Gegenstandsmodelle. Sie erhalten einen paradigmatischen Rang durch das Aufzeigen spezifischer Charakteristika dieser neuen Modelle. Drittens verdeutlichen außergewöhnliche Fälle Beziehungsmodelle, die in gewöhnlicheren Zusammenhängen unsichtbar bleiben. Ihr Beitrag ist hier heuristisch. Diese drei Beiträge sind möglich, wenn wir unsere normativen Verhaltensweisen bezüglich des Vorhersehbaren aufheben und die Fälle in Beziehung zu einem analytischen Raum konstitutiver Dimensionen setzen. Der Beitrag fußt hauptsächlich auf Beispielen aus den Sozialwissenschaften: Organisationssoziologie, Ethnomethodologie, vergleichende Geschichtssoziologie und Wissenschaftsgeschichte</dc:description><dc:description xml:lang="en">Exceptional cases are at odds with the typical : they stand out as bizarre and rare. What then could justify their systematic analysis? Elaborating the analytical distinction between anomalies, exceptions and outliers, this paper outlines three potential epistemic contributions of exceptional cases. First, exceptional cases reveal the limits of standard classification categories. In so doing, they problematize usual classificatory grids. Their input is critical. Second, exceptional cases point to new classes of objects. They acquire paradigmatic status when they exemplify the characteristic features of these new classes with utmost clarity. Third, exceptional cases magnify relational patterns that in more mundane contexts lack visibility. Here their contribution is heuristic. These three contributions become possible when we put at bay normative expectations of what should happen, and specify cases by reference to an analytical space of constitutive dimensions. To underscore the general significance of these observations, I draw on examples borrowed from different quarters of the social sciences: the sociology of organizations, ethnomethodology, comparative historical sociology and the history of science</dc:description><dc:description xml:lang="fr">Cet article éclaire trois contributions possibles du cas d’exception défini comme tout objet de considération qui se démarque et se distingue d’un cadre normatif, d’une thèse explicative ou d’une distribution fréquentielle. La contribution est critique lorsque le cas met en doute les fondements d’une taxonomie, le bien-fondé d’un énoncé prédictif ou celui d’une modélisation. Elle est paradigmatique dès lors que le cas exemplifie un ensemble de propriétés caractéristiques d’une classe empirique. Elle devient heuristique à partir du moment où le cas rend visible la logique de rapports restés jusqu’alors non documentés</dc:description><datacite:subjects><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Anomalie</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Ausnahme</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Abweichung</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Paradigmas</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Sozialwissenschaften</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Soziologische Theorie</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Sociological theory</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Social sciences</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Anomaly</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Exception</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Outlier</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Paradigm</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Vagues de mobilisation</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Paradigme</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Déviation</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Modèles stochastiques</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Décisions Critiques</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Sciences sociales</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Théorie sociologique</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">[SHS.SOCIO]Humanities and Social Sciences/Sociology</datacite:subject></datacite:subjects><oaire:licenseCondition startDate="2017-05-19 15:03:57" uri="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0">Attribution - Pas d’Utilisation Commerciale 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0)</oaire:licenseCondition><datacite:dates><datacite:date dateType="Accepted">2017-05-19</datacite:date><datacite:date dateType="Issued">2017-05-19</datacite:date><datacite:date dateType="Available">2017-05-19</datacite:date></datacite:dates><dc:language>fra</dc:language><dc:publisher>Presses de l’Inalco</dc:publisher><oaire:resourceType resourceTypeGeneral="literature" uri="http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501">journal        article    </oaire:resourceType><datacite:relatedIdentifiers><datacite:relatedIdentifier relatedIdentifierType="URL" relationType="IsIdenticalTo">https://hal.science/hal-01509747v1</datacite:relatedIdentifier><datacite:relatedIdentifier relatedIdentifierType="ISSN" relationType="IsPartOf">2557-9959</datacite:relatedIdentifier></datacite:relatedIdentifiers><datacite:rights rightsURI="http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2">open access</datacite:rights><oaire:file accessRightsURI="http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2" mimeType="application/pdf" objectType="fulltext">http://societes-plurielles.episciences.org/3671/pdf</oaire:file><oaire:version uri="http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85">VoR</oaire:version><dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format><oaire:citationTitle>Sociétés plurielles</oaire:citationTitle><oaire:citationVolume>Facing the challenge of the event in the Social Sciences and the Humanities</oaire:citationVolume><oaire:citationIssue>Articles</oaire:citationIssue><dcterms:audience>Researchers</dcterms:audience><dcterms:audience>Students</dcterms:audience></resource>
