The contributors are also invited to offer new theoretical perspectives on cultural policy and to provide for examples of cities and territories that achieved their goals in terms of promotion of cultural diversity and social developement.

  How to make: analysis of the process of creation in anthropology

  L'analyse du processus créatif est actuellement un objet de recherche en pleine diffusion. Comment les chercheurs en sciences sociales peuvent-ils aujourd'hui construire leur propre objet d'étude autour du processus de création ? Plus particulièrement, quelle pourrait être la spécificité d’une approche anthropologique ? Comment gérer la pluridisciplinarité et les rapports avec d'autres disciplines scientifiques étudiant déjà des pratiques similaires (études musicologiques ou théâtrales, histoire de l'art, etc) ? Quelle méthodologie adopter et comment construire un terrain ethnographique cohérent et pertinent autour des processus de création ? Ce sont à ces quelques questions que ce colloque a pour ambition de répondre.

  Which sports tourism? The makings of a contemporary experience of the elsewhere

  IIe journée du CERCE « anthropologie du sport »

  The society of production is giving way to a consumer society in which leisure activities are gaining in popularity.

In this way, sports as a form of leisure hold a particular place within our society. The “sportivization” of society, from a cultural and economic aspect, generates an expansion and a renewal of the different types of sporting leisure activities (increase in the number of sporting practices and diversification of the sporting techniques’ employed), following recreational (Corneloup, 2011) or body-oriented (Rauch, 1988) goals, but also connecting with the environment, whether it be urban or natural.
