Stéphane Dawans enseigne la philosophie et les sciences socio-humaines à la Faculté d’Architecture de l’Université de Liège. Outre les questions de philosophie ou de théorie de l’architecture, il s’intéresse à la conservation du patrimoine, convaincu que ce champ de recherche a tout à gagner d’une approche interdisciplinaire et de l’utilisation d’outils nouveaux, notamment empruntés à la logique, à la philosophie analytique et à l’ontologie des œuvres d’art.
