Tourism research. Comparative approaches in China and France
Cette journée d’étude de recherche vise en premier lieu à favoriser les échanges entre chercheurs chinois et chercheurs français concernant leurs approches respectives de la recherche (sciences sociales, sciences de gestion) en tourisme. Il s’inscrit dans les collaborations déjà fructueuses entre les collègues de l’université de Ningbo et les collègues français, en particulier enseignants-chercheurs à l’université d’Angers (UFR ESTHUA « Tourisme et culture »).

Call for papers - Political studies
L'an V des Révolutions au prisme de l'économique et du social
This colloquium, organized in Beirut as part of the WAFAW program, aims to critically take part in a debate over the socio-economic undergrounds of the “political crises” in the region, a scarcely explored angle when dealing with this issue. It will base its contribution on investigations and original corpuses. Its purpose is to better understand how the Arab, Iranian, Turkish and other political societies observed are workedby highly singular processes (such as the importance of oil, of migration economy, or of war economies) but also amenable to an unequal globalization of exchanges. How (and not why) does the economy play into these political dynamics?

New contribution to Geoarchaeology
Word archaeological congress 8
Geoarchaeology, defined as the application of geosciences and geographical methods to prehistory, archaeology, and history, is now widely applied to study key subjects such as occupation patterns, territory and site exploitation, palaeoclimatic, palaeoenvironemental, and palaeogeographical changes, as well as anthropogenic impacts and system responses. The multidisciplinary and multiscalar dimensions of geoarchaeological approaches have encouraged continuous development and innovation of methods and approaches that have opened new possibilities for explorations in geographical sectors previously inaccessible, the development of large-scale data acquisitions and treatment, and also the development of microscopic scale analysis precision. This session will highlight global research in geoarchaeology with particular emphasis on innovative methods or cutting edge research using established approaches.

Tourism, heritage and memory in the 21st century
5th Sino-European conference on tourism
Le projet de ce colloque est de montrer les différentes facettes des relations tourisme, patrimoine et mémoires au début du XXIe siècle. Dans une perspective binaire, est-il encore possible de soutenir que le tourisme détruit le patrimoine, ou avancer simplement qu’il participe à son entretien et sa vitalité (Le Menestrel, 1999) ? L’enjeu n’est-il pas, au début du XXIe siècle, d’interroger plus finement en quoi les conditions sociales, historiques, territoriales, économiques, façonnent la production mémorielle contemporaine ? Mettre en patrimoine, n’est-ce pas aussi, dans certaines configurations géographiques, sociales et politiques, mettre en tourisme ? Inversement, mettre en tourisme, n’est-ce pas mettre, au moins partiellement, en patrimoine ? A quelles échelles et selon quelles modalités ces processus sont-ils développés ? Quels en sont les acteurs ou les combinaisons d’acteurs ?

Tourism, heritage and globalization
International Geographical Congress 2016
The relationship between heritage and tourism has essentially been analyzed as a “defensive” one. Even if the economic contribution of tourism is considered necessary to insure the conservation of heritage sites and objects, tourism is at the same time suspected to be invasive, destructive and dangerous for the sites’ “authenticity”. This session aims at understanding the processes through which tourism (seen as a system of places, stakeholders/actors, public, practices and imaginaries) becomes a major “heritage producing machine” and identifying what these new production are.

Multifaceted Inequality in Contemporary India
The "Association des jeunes études indiennes" (AJEI) is a student organization whose members are young researchers coming from various disciplines of the human and social sciences (from masters degree to postdoctoral level) whose area of research is South Asia. Every year, a research seminar in France and a workshop in India bring students and scholars together in order to discuss the topics and papers presented. Since 1998 the AJEI organizes an annual workshop in India with the support of international and local partners. This year we propose a three day workshop with an opening lecture, daily presentations discussed by senior researchers, methodological workshops, and a concluding session. One of our goals is also to interact informally, and build relationships, towards creating a strong international network of researchers.

Can regions understand each other?
Europe and Asia: challenges and crisis-management
Further to the first Europe-Asia conferences exploring regional regime dynamics (France, 2004), policies of regional cooperation (Korea, 2005), interregional competition (France, 2012) and the limits of regional constructions (Kazakhstan, 2014), this 2016 edition will look at the reciprocal understanding of regions and how that is conducive to their capacity (or lack thereof) to monitor crises they undergo, both specific crises and interregional ones. Papers must address original research, in regional dynamics of Asia and Europe, since the end of the cold war and focus on one area among.
