Geneva
Thinking and classifying collections of scholarly societies
Study day organised by the Geneva society of arts
Dans le cadre de son projet de valorisation des ressources historiques initié en 2016, la société des arts de Genève propose une journée d’étude autour de la thématique « Penser / classer les collections des sociétés savantes ». Cette rencontre invite à s’interroger sur la constitution et les usages des collections des sociétés savantes actives en Europe à partir de la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle et tout au long du XIXe siècle, et à partager des expériences sur la manière dont elles sont conservées et valorisées de nos jours. Elle s’adresse à tous chercheurs confirmés, jeunes chercheurs, archivistes, représentants de sociétés savantes souhaitant présenter et débattre d’un thème en lien étroit avec la question plus globale de la sauvegarde du patrimoine des institutions culturelles.

Theoretical, empirical ans historical perspectives on wage, subsistence and basic income
The Centre Walras-Pareto is organizing a workshop on the history of wages. The workshop will take place at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland), 29-30 September 2016. Much has been written on wages within economics. In his classical account of the history ofwage theory, Dunlop (1957) refers to three time-periods: the wage-fund theory domination,the rise of marginal productivity distribution theory, and the “contemporary setting”, startingin the 1930s and characterized by a diversity of theoretical arguments; but much has changed.

The Smaller European Powers and China in the Cold War, 1949-1989
This international conference aims to examine the policies of the smaller European powers towards China – and vice versa – during the Cold War. Thereby it focuses, on the European side, on both Western and Eastern Europe – regardless of whether a country was part of the NATO or the Warsaw Pact. Meanwhile, on the Chinese side, the conference proposes to include both Chinas, namely the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (RoC). While this should allow for the analysis of different relational constellations, the chronological framework – that ranges from the Communist victory in China in 1949 to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Tiananmen Square uprising in 1989 – should enable us to identify policy shifts and patterns.
