Paradigms, models, scenarios and practices in terms of strong sustainability
Bien que la notion de durabilité continue d'être associée au rapport Brundtland (1987) et au concept de développement durable, une communauté de chercheurs et de praticiens de la durabilité cherche de plus en plus à émanciper le concept pour être en accord avec les connaissances et les aspirations du moment. L'enthousiasme et les attentes à l'égard d'une plus grande durabilité vont au-delà des simples questions environnementales. Ils abordent également des questions sociales cruciales. Les communications du symposium visent à remettre en question les paradigmes, les modèles, les scénarios et les pratiques qui incarnent la durabilité. On peut se demander quel sens donner à l'idée même de durabilité et aux représentations qu'elle véhicule.

Villetaneuse
Ce colloque international s’inscrit dans un renouvellement récent et très dynamique de la recherche sur l’État en économie supposant l’examen critique de deux postulats dominants de la discipline : 1) Le postulat d’un État apolitique ou d’une dictature bienveillante qui ne poursuit aucun intérêt privé et qui maximise l’intérêt général. 2) Le postulat de « doux commerce » c’est-à-dire de l’exclusion des conflits sociaux, des guerres inter et intra étatiques en présence des marchés. Nos échanges visent à explorer comment les dimensions régalienne, prudentielle, et providentielle de l’État peuvent être interprétées si l’on relâche ces deux hypothèses. Quelle est la place du pouvoir conflictuel dans la genèse et l’évolution des règles régissant la répartition de la richesse et le développement économique, social, et écologique ?

Government by Expertise: Technocrats and Technocracy in Western Europe, 1914-1973
Technocracy is the political swearword of our times. From the multiple crises of the European Union to the recent elections in the United States, the role of experts in public governance is often invoked as one of the main sources for the political ills of contemporary society, responsible for the exacerbation of social inequalities, the decline in the acceptance of political institutions, and the rise of populist movements. This conference will look at the genealogy of technocracy and the trajectories of various groups of “experts” in western Europe’s mid-20th century.

Crisis, Idea and Policy Transformation
Experts and Expertise in European International Organizations, 1973-1987
Crisis and crisis experience were central to Western European history between the first oil crisis of 1973 and the creation of the Single European Act. European international organizations (IOs) such as the OECD or the EC played a crucial role in debating and addressing manifold dimensions of crisis, shifting discourses and transforming policies at national and European level. These IOs drew heavily on experts and their expertise in debating and managing crisis and seeking solutions for structural problems. Organized jointly by the University of Portsmouth and Maastricht University on 30-31 January 2014, the workshop will investigate who were the experts active within IOs and what type or form of expertise they had and draw upon in agenda-setting, policy deliberation and decision-making. It will also discuss the role of experts in policy-making in the respective IOs and their influence on the development of the policy area concerned.

Les nouveaux espaces normatifs de la mondialisation
L'arbitrage international en Asie et les principes asiatiques des contrats
The question whether a new space of commercial regulation is emerging in Asia is generally addressed through the traditional notion of legal order or legal system. Thus, Chinese Law or Japanese Law on Arbitration, for example, is examined by underlining the specificities of such domestic law. Would it be possible to question the emergence of an Asian space of business law, not only from the exclusive standpoint of legal norms but from the standpoint of the actors themselves and their legal practices? -
