    Disability and geography: spatialities of disability and social and professional integration

    8th EUGEO Congress on the Geography of Europe

    The disability rights movement laid the foundation for the current development of disability studies.  A number of geography-based studies have been part of this stream of research since the 1990s. From different theoretical perspectives, they aim to study the links between disability and spatial injustice or to explore the sensitive dimension of the spatial relationships of people with disabilities. This EUGEO 2021 session wishes to highlight all the work that considers disability and its issues through a spatial approach. Whether the study of the mobility of people with disabilities or the analysis of their objective and subjective links with space, work that analyzes the spatialities of disability in their multiplicity and diversity will be particularly appreciated. With the aim of understanding to what extent space can be an asset or a hindrance for people with disabilities, this session also encourages work that questions the different logics of social and professional integration and in particular the influence of the living environment in these logics.

    Seminar - Ethnology, anthropology

    Frontières, temporalités, matérialités au prisme de la santé

    Depuis trois ans, ce séminaire fait le choix de promouvoir des explorations du champ de la santé qui privilégient des regards mobilisant les notions transversales de frontières, de temporalités et de matérialités. À la lumière des actualités sanitaires qui marquent l’année 2020, les thématiques au cœur de ce séminaire pourraient bien se révéler encore plus riches et pertinentes. La crise du coronavirus agit en effet comme un puissant révélateur du caractère éminemment social et politique de la santé. Plus que jamais auparavant, les enjeux sanitaires font débat à une très large échelle : mesures de prévention, efficacité des traitements, conflits d’intérêts et méthode scientifique… Dans ce contexte inédit, les analyses des sciences sociales de la santé sont indispensables, à la fois pour saisir la pandémie de Covid-19 en cours – qui fait l’objet de la séance inaugurale – mais aussi plus largement en proposant des perspectives décentrées (socialement, historiquement ou géographiquement) de l’actualité immédiate.

    Domestic accumulation, decluttering, and the stuff of kinship in anthropological perspective

    We invite submissions of abstracts considering the following sorts of questions: What is the relationship between storage and the labor of kinship? What kinds of possessions are sources of obligation? Which are experienced as social or animate beings? What social practices and spatial processes surround waste, excess, and the riddance of objects from the home? How might local ethnographic concepts like hau orbrol inform the anthropological understanding of attachment to possessions, recycling, or the circulation of second-hand objects? When is accumulation a valued social practice, and when is it morally suspect? How is the space of storage constructed in relationship to the social space of the home, and how might this reflect on the local category of stored things? We invite authors to consider how practices such as storage, stockpiling, and purging of belongings can be approached anthropologically in order to provide both nuanced ethnographic depth and broader cross-cultural and historical perspective. Interdisciplinary perspectives are also welcome.
