  Comparative perspectives on transformations in the networks and actors of vines and vineyards

  Ce colloque interroge les mutations profondes, en cours depuis la fin des années 50, du monde viti-vinicole. Il tentera de saisir ces transformations à partir de trois dimensions qui sont l’action collective, les pratiques des acteurs et les innovations. À travers ces axes de travail, les contributions pourront montrer comment les évolutions du secteur affectent et se diffusent dans le monde de la vigne et du vin, comment les différents niveaux d’acteurs s’en emparent et quelles en sont les conséquences sur le plan économique et/ou social.

  Contemporary crisis and changes

  Geoeconomical and geopolitical approaches

  For several years, the world seems to have entered a period of high instability. Economically, the "subprime mortgage crisis" appeared in 2007 in the USA, then spread planet wide in all areas of activity. In 2015, economic difficulties persist (growth stagnation in developed countries and lower growth in emerging markets, explosion of unemployment, deindustrialisation and offshoring, market tensions in China, the euro zone, etc.). In geopolitical terms, tension spots have also multiplied (Saharian and Sahelian Africa, Middle East, Far East and Eastern Europe) leading to strong migratory waves while power poles seem to be redeploying between the USA, China and other regional powers.The aim of the conference "Contemporary Crisis and changes" is to question these contemporary upheavals through both a geo-economic and a geopolitical reading. The conference will provide elements of analysis and compare them especially with contemporary representations of globalisation emphasizing in particular the logic of closure that seems to characterize this phenomenon.
