  Gender Dynamics and Practices in Architecture, Urbanism and Landscape Architecture

  In France, as in several other countries, the professions of architect, urban planner and landscape architect have crossed a historic threshold in terms of feminization. However, numerical parity does not mean men and women have equal professional opportunities: numerous demands of feminist associations remain unsatisfied. They note the persistence of many professional inequalities: in terms of income, in terms of financial control and job insecurity, in terms of visibility, and in terms of recognition. This call for papers aims to gather contributions for an assessment of the gains and limits of feminization and gender dynamics at work in the professional worlds of architecture, urban planning and landscape architecture in France, fifty years after the "massive" entry of women into architecture schools in 1968.

  Study days - Geography

  Gender and urban planning - cityscapes through the prism of male-female relationships

  Usages et aménagements de la ville au prisme des rapports hommes / femmes

  Cette journée d’étude interdisciplinaire réunit des chercheuses européennes afin de discuter d’une part la question de l’appropriation genrée de l’espace public, et d’autre part celle des normes de genre inhérentes aux modes de construction et d’aménagement des villes. Cette journée a pour ambition de croiser les regards entres géographes, sociologues, urbanistes et historiennes interrogeant la ville, le droit à la ville. A-t-on vraiment, partout, dépassé la ville genrée, une ville ouverte à tous et toutes ? Ou, au contraire, assiste-t-on a une banalisation des interactions conflictuelles dans les espaces urbains, dont les grandes métropoles, villes denses ?
