Conceptions of heritage

Intersecting views on heritage creations and their special features

Le colloque privilégiera des approches comparatistes et l’analyse de tensions entre des conceptions patrimoniales dans des contextes territoriaux ou culturels. Quatre grands thèmes repartiront les discussions : les différenciations linguistiques des conceptions patrimoniales ; les discordances entre des conceptions du patrimoine et des modes de gestion patrimoniale dans un milieu ; la transformation de la notion et des objets de patrimoine sur un territoire ou au sein d’une communauté ; la perméabilité ou l’imperméabilité des conceptions du patrimoine entretenues par des communautés culturelles en milieu urbain.

From debt to over-indebtedness in southern countries: Processes, practices and meanings

International Workshop, Paris-IEDES, 7-8 december 09

Organized by UMR 201, RUME India, Mexico, Madagascar, CIESAS (Mexico) (www.rume-rural-microfinance.org). The main purpose of this interdisciplinary workshop will be a theoretical and empirical examination of over-indebtedness from the perspective of southern countries, with the following underlying hypothesis: to define and analyze the process of indebtedness requires first an understanding of the complexity and diversity of debt relationships. The following questions might be addressed: 1) The social meaning of debt, creditworthiness and over-indebtedness. 2) Financial ‘markets’ and financial providers. 3) Financial culture. 4) Impoverishment and accumulation. 5) Over-indebtedness.
