  Familles au temps de la Covid-19

  Revue « Enfances Familles Générations »

  La pandémie de la Covid-19 et les mesures restrictives de distanciation physique et de confinement affectent les liens sociaux et familiaux. Ces contraintes obligent les personnes à repenser leurs relations familiales et de couple, la gestion des temps familiaux et professionnels, leurs relations intergénérationnelles, ainsi que les transitions de vie. Exacerbant les tensions de la vie conjugale et familiale ou renforçant ces liens, cette pandémie offre aussi l’occasion de réfléchir à de nouvelles stratégies du vivre-ensemble.

  Covid-19, Migration and Migratory Parkours

  From Mobility to the Prisms of Immobility: Paradoxes and Realities

  The notion of migratory parkour proposes to apprehend migration as a process that varies according to the spaces crossed, the resources mobilized and personal choices, implying a particular will and intention, according to the opportunities, constraints and risks encountered. It also considers the interactions between multiple actors (migrants, States, criminal groups, solidarity collectives). Beyond these experiences linked to the “route”, the migratory parkour also encompasses the process of integration/inclusion in the host society and of return/repatriation in the country of origin. The general objective of this call of Revue Européenne des Migrations Internationales is then to question the heuristic value of the notion of migratory parkour in the context of Covid-19.

  The Caribbean against the Covid19: A global crisis and local solutions

  "Études caribéennes" Journal #48

  Officially affected by the COVID19 pandemic in early March 2020, the Caribbean Basin is concerned about the fragility of its social fabric and the wide disparities in public health policies from one State to another, which make a comprehensive response at the regional level impossible. The situation worsened at the end of May with the withdrawal of US funding to the World Health Organization (WHO), finally condemning the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), an emblematic figure in the fight against epidemics in the islands and on the continent, to a drastic reduction in its interventions, or even its disappearance. In this way, this issue seeks to respond to various concerns about the regional impact of the pandemic, around the central issue: to what extent the economic, political and/or social impact hovers around unresolved points in the construction of Caribbean Nation-States that prevent them from facing the crisis.

  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.

  Ethics and public health - second edition

  Deuxième édition

  L’éthique de la santé publique est un champ peu exploré en France au contraire de l’éthique du soin ou de l’éthique de la recherche. Les sujets de questionnement éthique propres à la santé publique ne manquent pourtant pas, comme en ont témoigné ces derniers mois de crise sanitaire. Citons-en ici quelques exemples : comment justifier le dépistage pour telle ou telle maladie à une population entière ? Que signifie « éduquer » à la santé ou « responsabiliser » les usagers ? Quelles responsabilités civiles peut-on ou doit-on mobiliser au service de la santé publique ? Au nom de quelles valeurs ou principes sont combattues ou au contraire tolérées les inégalités de santé grandissantes en France et dans le monde ? En période de crise sanitaire, jusqu’où peut-on légitimer les restrictions aux libertés individuelles au nom de la santé collective et de la protection des plus vulnérables ? Tels sont les exemples de questionnements éthiques qu’il conviendra d’identifier et d’éclairer durant ces journées.
