  Call for papers - Political studies

  Industrial citizenship

  Perspectives from the South and North

  The recent proliferation of workers' protests throughout the world reminds us of the importance, for political studies, of observing workplaces. In this conference, we propose to revisit industrial citizenship in a transversal manner through local empirical studies that document how the organization of labour influences collective practices. Our goal is to bring together scholars from different disciplinary, geographic and historical backgrounds and perspectives. Emphasis will be placed on approaches that seek to situate workers' actions in thick descriptions of local social and political relations. Papers should seek to account for the inclusion of forms of industrial citizenship in various configurations, beyond the sole labour organizations: the legal context, economic relations, social relations of domination inside and outside the factory, the modes of political enunciation invented or reappropriated by workers.
