    Urban Mobilities

    The COVID-19 lockdown deprived citizens around the world of their mobility. This experience has inspired many citizens to rethink their mobility, to describe it less in terms of quantity – the speed and distance of their journeys – and more in terms of quality and freedom. The Urban Mobilities online publication will be advocating for a post-COVID urban mobility that is pluralistic and benefits all walks of life. It will do so by showcasing projects that question and challenge conventional mobility and its negociation in the public space.

    La Russie est aujourd’hui un acteur international influent dans plusieurs parties du monde, même si elle présente de nombreux signes de fragilité. C’est surtout un pays qui continue de se transformer en profondeur et qui cherche toujours à renforcer la maîtrise et la desserte de son propre territoire. Ce dossier de la revue EchoGéo accordera une place importante à l’étude des dynamiques spatiales internes actuelles de la Fédération de Russie, à toutes les échelles et dans toutes les parties du territoire fédéral, afin de contribuer à la connaissance de ce pays.

    Indigenous geographies in Brazil

    Confins journal, theme issue – December 2021

    Ce dossier pour la revue franco-brésilienne Confins cherche à mettre en évidence la manière dont les débats en cours au sujet de la construction de l’espace et de concepts tels que « territoire » et « territorialité » peut contribuer à approfondir la compréhension des réalités territoriales des peuples autochtones au Brésil. Au travers de travaux fondés sur des situations territoriales variées, et ancrés dans des champs thématiques et théoriques divers, tant de la géographie que de disciplines connexes, nous souhaitons permettre un rapprochement et un dialogue fertile autour d’analyses comparatives amenant à mieux comprendre les géographies autochtones au Brésil.

    Labour and Migration in the Age of Borders

    The recent focus in politics and the media on the “migration crisis” and the rise of populisms in Europe is an invitation to interrogate migrations in the light of geopolitical, ethical or identity approaches. With this thematic issue we wish to complement, not contradict, these approaches by reintroducing the economic dimension of migration through a study of the multiple forms of work and labor; and address the entanglements between migration policy and work. This special issue asks the following question: what can we learn from the exploration of migrant labor in an age of advanced capitalism and border consolidation? It will look at the relation between migratory statuses, legal and professional situations, under a juridical and socio-economic perspective: at the articulation of power relations within forms of migrant labor; at the impact of processes of borderization on the various worlds of labor; at the forms of resistance to exploitation and subjugation of migrant workers or employees working with migrants. These multiple forms of action at the margins indicate that rather than being depoliticized, labor — and especially labor as it is transformed by migration — remains today a privileged site for understanding the political effects of greater flexibility when it comes to working conditions, the denial of recognition for workers and the hidden face of authoritarian capitalism.
