    Conference, symposium - Sociology

    Work and leisure

    How work changes through and in entertainment and how entertainment is requalified in work

    Organisé par le GRIPIC CELSA Paris-Sorbonne, le colloque propose de questionner ce que le travail fait au divertissement et ce que le divertissement fait au travail ou, plus précisément, de s’arrêter sur la production contemporaine de formes hybrides entre travail et divertissement, et plus généralement travail et loisir : des serious games à l’usage des réseaux sociaux au travail, des Fab labs à la médiation du travail des amateurs, comment comprendre ces phénomènes d’hybridations ? S’inscrivent-ils dans une histoire du loisir et du travail ou doivent-ils être considérés comme une tendance actuelle ? Sont-ils propres à certains secteurs professionnels, certains métiers, certaines générations ou caractérisent-ils le monde du travail en général ? Comment ce phénomène est-il mis en visibilité par les usages communicationnels ? De quoi est-il le signe ou le symptôme ?

    From « Traditional » Games to Digital Games

    Since the early 2000’s, the importance of studying digital games has increased to take a significant place in the academic literature dedicated to entertaining phenomena, to such a point that many articles offering to make an inventory of current “game studies” primarily focus on work related to games on this media. In this context, we cannot ignore the fact that work aimed at conceiving and studying digital games is also regularly referred to as reflections on (non-digital) “traditional” games, whether to build their theoretical framework, or to conduct comparative and contrastive studies. According to us, this kind of mutual lighting encourages researchers to examine the peculiarities and complementarities of the two areas, as well as the theoretical interest of connecting or of confronting them. Therefore, in order to analyse the relations established between “traditional” games and digital games, this call is divided into five themes that give a broad overview of the different kinds of possible links. All types of research, fundamental or applied, as well as disciplinary approaches are welcome.
