    Work, heritage and development

    5th congress of the International Ergology Society

    La démarche de l’ergologie offre-t-elle une approche pertinente dans le champ des questions intégrant le travail, le patrimoine et le développement ? Dans quelle mesure sa contribution est-elle singulière et innovante ? Afin d’établir un bilan et de tracer des perspectives, le principal objectif du cinquième congrès de la Société internationale d’ergologie (SIE) est de mettre en débats, au cours de trois journées, les travaux qui, en plusieurs lieux du monde, ont fait l’option de s’engager dans cette réflexion, tout en ayant parfois privilégié auparavant d’autres cadres de référence. La diversité des approches constituera un atout essentiel de cette rencontre qui se veut donc pluridisciplinaire.

    Aviation - the impact on time and space

    L’impact de l’aviation, tant sur le temps que sur l’espace, aux XXe et XXIe siècles, a été remarquable. Depuis les aventures des pionniers, en passant par les premières compagnies aériennes, jusqu’à l’âge du jet et, de nos jours, les opérateurs à bas prix, l’aviation a profondément changé les notions de temps et d’espace. Ce colloque international vise à réfléchir au rôle de l’aviation dans la mutation subie par ces notions, aussi bien qu’aux effets de ce phénomène sur le commerce, la sécurité, la culture et les territoires.

    Port Cities: Comparative Perspectives on Urban Stability and Public Safety

    18th-21st centuries

    The coming of globalization was centrally anchored in the increased mobility of goods, people and ideas. Port cities were thus transformed in crucial hubs in this mobility age. Because of the heterogeneous social and cultural landscape associated with commerce and transport, port cities became increasingly known as insecure places. Hence the perceptions resulting from and the strategies adopted to deal with the insecurity and the search for a new sense of urban stability were especially acute in port cities.

    The French-speaking world: celebrations, events and effects

    Question time

    La francophonie n’est certes pas un fait culturel ou politique nouveau. Toutefois – indéchiffrable ou irréductible aux effets de correspondance linguistique au territoire ; qui plus est chargée d’une aura littéraire bien au-delà des francophonies originelles ou postcoloniales –, elle se revêt d’une ambiguïté définitoire, - souvent déclinée au pluriel -, et d’un statut géopolitique en éternel chantier. Quoi qu’il en soit, une chose est sûre : la francophonie se définit surtout par des interrogations ou des négations, tant par rapport au centre hexagonal que vis-à-vis d’une uniformisation linguistique et culturelle hégémonique.
