Social and tecnical Innovations for water management
8th congress CEISAL
De tout temps l’innovation tant technique que sociale, a fait partie de l’histoire de la maîtrise et de la gestion de l’eau : procédés d’irrigation développés par les grandes sociétés de la Mésopotamie Antique et de l’Espagne musulmane, organisation sociale du partage de l’eau dans les sociétés indiennes ou latino-américaines, transferts interbassins ou barrages, etc. Mais dans un contexte plus récent de dégradation quantitative et qualitative de cette ressource, de changements climatiques, de croissance urbaine accélérée des grandes métropoles, d’une agriculture irriguée largement sollicitée, d’un cadre institutionnel en évolution, l’innovation est de nouveau interrogée pour répondre aux besoins en eau.

Call for papers - Urban studies
The cities of urban research have long been and still are widely today, the "great cities". But the realities of urban are not limited to them. In France for example the small and medium-sized cities house more than a quarter of the population. What does the observation of these cities bring to knowledge of the urban phenomenon? On the other hand, in the research devoted to major metropoles, it is often very specific neighborhoods that are the subject of attention of research as well as the media: social housing developments or the central gentrified neighborhoods. But more "ordinary" neighbourhoods are not often the focus. What does the observation of these neighbourhoods that we do not talk about "say" about the city? In other words, we would like to call on work that offers openings of the typologies of cities as the typologies of neighbourhoods that are subjacent to the discourse and debates on the urban.

Conference, symposium - Europe
Worlds of work and labour markets in Southern Europe
Contractual uncertainty: Freedom and constraints at work
Dans la dynamique de spécification du travail et des activités productives à l’égard des autres activités sociales, les institutions juridiques jouent un rôle crucial. L’élaboration d’un droit de travail et le développement d'assurances sociales reposant sur la cotisation des employeurs et des salariés introduisent des catégories nouvelles dans la vie sociale et économique. Ils enjoignent les acteurs économiques à se reconnaître dans l'une ou l’autre catégorie. Mais que se passe-t-il avant l’entrée en vigueur d'un Code du travail, la reconnaissance d’un contrat de travail ou l’identification d'une catégorie de « chômeur » permettant de regrouper dans une condition commune ceux qui travaillent pour un même « employeur » ?

Conference, symposium - Political studies
Rethinking social issues in Europe in light of the experiences of emerging countries ?
The proposed conference aims to foster debate on the impact of globalisation on social issues, based on findings from old industrialised nations as well as from the so-called “emerging nations”. Emerging nations are characterised by recent and rapid industrialisation that has led to the emergence of educated middle-class consumers and raised living standards of a section of the working class. This industrialisation has also led to structured protest movements that authorities have been able to address through social policies. Emerging nations have also experienced or maintained an increase in inequality leading to corruption, delinquency or criminalisation and giving rise to parallel initiatives within civil society which is more efficient in emerging countries; founded on democratic principles, the State in developed countries is still able to efficiently intervene in favour of its citizens.

Vie et survie dans le Venezuela contemporain
La cinquième journée d’étude du GEIVEN (Groupe d’étude interdisciplinaires sur le Venezuela) portera, plus particulièrement sur les stratégies de survivance. Ces stratégies de survivance auxquelles les différents acteurs vénézuéliens ont recours pour gérer les imprévus de la vie quotidienne, prennent plusieurs formes (migration et déplacement de population à l’échelle régionale, nationale ou internationale, le recours à d’autres modes de communication, l’organisation de groupes et d’association, etc). L’enjeu de cette journée d’étude sera donc d’ouvrir le champ théorique à plusieurs disciplines, telles que l’histoire, la géographie, l’anthropologie, la sociologie, le droit, l’art, les sciences du langage, la science politique entre autres, afin de favoriser les échanges transdisciplinaires et comprendre les dimensions multiples que prennent ces stratégies de survivance dans le cas particulier du Venezuela.

Revue « Tiers Monde » – section Varia
The journal Revue Tiers Monde publishes outcomes of research on development studies. Theoretical views and case studies are published within special editions or along with diverse papers, spontaneously submitted to the Editorial board (section "Varia"). We are calling for this last type of papers. There is no specified theme, except that the articles must study development matters.
