  The Ruins of the Heritagization

  The aim of ‘Ruins of the Heritagization’ is to institute an archeology of territories considered as being ‘heritage’ focusing the "ruins" produced by the process of labelling cities. ‘Ruins of the Heritagization’ will be set in two moments of reflection, in Rio de Janeiro and in Paris. They will allow the mobilization of efforts to focus on what in the speeches and patrimonial practices is perceived as "saved" while being, at the same time, what trivializes a local economy, promotes the destruction of informal settlements, or still, transforms radically established practices. Relating what labeling leaves on the territories, which territories it produces and leaves as inheritance will be the subject of these meetings.

  Territorial Politics, State Intervention and Social Practices in Spatial Reestructuring

  Second National Space and Economy Seminar

  Proposé par le NUPEE (Noyau de recherches sur l'espace et l'économie), le deuxième colloque national espace et économie veut discuter des façons dont la mondialisation, en changeant le mode de régulation et le régime d'accumulation de capital, a affectée et continue à affecter la dynamique spatiale, en soulignant le besoin d'une analyse géographique. Si la compréhension de l'espace peut éclairer quelques questions parmi les plus importantes de l'actualité (l'exploitation du travail, l'intervention de l'État, les nouvelles configurations régionales, les politiques publiques), il faut évaluer comment il a été aménagé en tant qu'une pièce clé de la vie sociale.
