  From professions to corporatism in Brabant cities (Middle Ages - 20th century)

  Van ambachten tot corporatisme in de Brabantse steden (middeleeuwen – 20ste eeuw)

  Le colloque s’intéresse aux conceptions que les corporations de métiers ont propagé jadis, en dehors du champ strictement matériel de leur activité de production. On songe au souci du ‘bien commun’, à la moralité, à la protection des veuves et des orphelins des membres, à la place des confrères pauvres, aux activités dévotionnelles et religieuses, à la transmission de connaissances et à la formation, aux manifestations communau-taires dans l’espace public et à une sociabilité liée au groupe professionnel.

  Beyond the monument. The fate of churches: become heritage or disappear?

  IXth International Young Scholars Conference on Heritage

  The Ninth International Young Scholars Conference on Heritage intends to discuss heritage-making with respect to churches and chapels of the historical religious traditions by examining from a pragmatic perspective the transition of these buildings from the religious space to the public space of contemporary civil society. The following dimensions will be specifically addressed: public action, including its means and partners; funding methods; means of conversion; and selection criteria at various territorial scales. Property plans and the appropriate or inappropriate character of eventual uses obviously remain crucial issues as well.
