    Population, Time, Territories (CIST2020)

    The latest in the series of Collège international des sciences territoriales (FR2007 CIST) conferences, this 5th international conference spotlights the concept of population as a central issue in the debates within territorial sciences. The concept of population, which is central to demography and biology and more marginal for other disciplines, involves the grouping together of individual entities. Depending on the particular approach used, the preferred criterion for aggregation will be the social, territorial, biological, etc., with timescales and observation scales varying accordingly. Linking together population, time and territory in a transdisciplinary and international perspective is the main goal of this conference; beyond the fact that it represents a theoretical and methodological breakthrough, the diversity of the proposed thematic sessions is a clear sign that this trio is at the heart of contemporary issues.

    The materials of historical interest that build up the urban heritage: correlations, uses, landscapes

    Dossier temático nr. 16: Cadernos do arquivo municipal

    To this Thematic Dossier, we suggest to focus on these materials, having in mind the relation between built heritage, knowledge and society. It is proposed a multidisciplinary, wide and diversified approach of the various aspects that influence the patrimonial existence of cities. It aims to explore diversified aspects of mediation between these materials and cultural heritage. Thus, all are invited to present creative and original studies and reflections.

    Towards social, racial and environmental justice in the Americas

    La compréhension des diverses formes de domination (appartenance sociale, raciale, identité de sexe et de genre) dans les Amériques requiert de prendre également en compte le racisme environnemental. Par exemple, les projets urbains les plus polluants sont fréquemment concentrés dans les quartiers accueillant des populations pauvres, des minorités ethniques ou des membres de peuples indigènes. Dans une approche interdisciplinaire, ce colloque veut mettre en lumière des perspectives explorant les convergences possibles entre sources et objets de recherches.

    Tourism and international labels. Protection and commercialization

    UNESCO's labels (World Heritage, Biosphere Reserves, Creative Cities, Global Geoparks) have been created, amongst other reasons, to ensure the sustainable development of areas with special characteristics. Each label has specific objectives, be it conservation or protection, education, or networking of these areas. While these labels have not been designed to contribute to the commercialization of tourism, many destinations enjoy the prestige, reputation, and guarantee of quality or exceptionality associated with these labels to attract visitors, residents, and investors. Some site managers also use these labels to educate residents and visitors about their specific characteristics. The use of these international labels in a marketing context therefore poses a large number of challenges, both from practical and theoretical points of view.
