  Health: New Challenges for Development

  « Revue internationale des études du développement », n°247 (2021-3)

  A call for papers on health and development cannot but mention the current pandemic crisis. While international aid in the health sector has been rather stagnant of late, the Covid-19 pandemic could put health and infectious diseasesback at the heart of long-run priorities, particularly in countries of the South. While the African continent remains relatively unaffected, low-income countries share several characteristics: fragile and poorly funded healthcare systems that currently seem to be coping nonetheless, as well as a significant burden due to endemic health problems, including non communicable diseases. An integrated, unified approach to public and environmental health at different scales therefore seems more necessary than ever, especially in the context of climate change. This global crisis therefore provides new opportunities to better interlink the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and rethink the health and development nexus.

  Instituting the family, between parenthood and parenthood

  Revue des politiques sociales et familiales (RPSF) theme issue

  Ce numéro de la Revue des politiques sociales et familiales s’attachera à mettre en lumière les stratégies de retrait vis-à-vis des institutions (entendues au sens large du terme) de certains parents au nom de conceptions alternatives de l’engendrement, de la filiation ou de la parentalité aux normes dominantes. Enfin, l’emploi du terme de « parent », sans distinction de sexe, dissimule les déclinaisons de cette fonction ou de ce statut suivant que le parent est un homme ou une femme. Ce numéro souhaite aussi interroger la façon dont les injonctions portées par les expert·e·s et les pratiques des (futurs) parents se déclinent entre paternité et maternité.
