"Dedicated to history, to science, to literature, and to the arts, the Actes are in themselves a library, a rich documentation, an anthology. For over a hundred years, the best minds and the best writers of the Jura worked for them, and no historian or essayist of today or tomorrow can ignore the great wealth they hold. Many cantons, although endowed with a university, envy us this precious possession. By the mere existence of its Actes, the Société jurassienne d'émulation justifies its own existence." Charles Beuchat, Le Jura, terre romande, 1971)

The distribution of articles in the fields of history, science, literature and art varies from one volume to another, depending on the individual contributions available and the activity of the Circles. Those responsible for the Actes work to ensure that a balanced offer is presented to readers and maintain this threefold requirement: a high scientific level, a spirit of popularization, and openness to new areas of research and creation. Since 1847 they offer a panorama of research and creation in the historic Jura area (Jura canton, Bernese Jura and Laufon District).
