Abstract
After the beginning of the confinement, we asked first year students of physiotherapy to select a scientific or press article dealing with the consequences of it, justifying their choice and explaining the links made with the human and social sciences. The students sent back relevant and rich work that could constitute an archaeology of confinement by the sociological, psychological, educational and philosophical themes treated. These works testify to the students’ ability to analyze the consequences of an exceptional pandemic situation and their reflexive capacities.
