  Militantism today - asking questions of change

  Interroger le changement

  Deux laboratoires - le CERLIS et PHILéPOL - de la faculté de sciences humaines et sociales de l'université Paris Descartes se sont associés pour constituer une journée d'études autour de la question du militantisme. Nous invitons les potentiels intervenants - doctorants et docteurs venant de diverses disciplines des sciences sociales - à questionner l'évolution du militantisme à travers deux axes majeurs : d'une part, interroger la dichotomie droite / gauche au sein du militantisme, d'autre part, discuter de la pluralité des espaces du militantisme dans le contexte récent d'une démocratisation d'internet.

  Call for papers - Geography

  Political Informality, Power and the Other Side of Urban Space

  Online journal « L'espace politique » n° 29 (2-2016)

  This issue of L’Espace politique aims at understanding the roles and meanings of informal practices in city governance and urban life. How does the diversity of urban power structures emerge and consolidate, in informal and sometimes illegal ways? What influence does it have on the production, administration and control of urban space? This special issue is at the junction of two academic traditions: urban studies and the studies on informality. We encourage contributions based on fieldwork in cities, which will be the basis for comparison between several local case studies.
