Politicizing and Depoliticizing Work in the Contemporary Firm and Beyond

" The Future of Work", Congress of the Swiss Sociological Association 2019 | Workshop n°25

The employment relation that emerged after World War II has undergone significant transformations in the present context. Phenomena such as job precariousness, difficult working conditions and the increasing number of working poor become more relevant. In addition to this, the spatio-temporal boundaries between professional and private life are increasingly blurred. These challenges are sometimes tackled via individual arrangements, e.g. about the working time, in such cases a “depoliticizing” of work can be observed. However, counter-processes of “politicization” are also taking place in case of reactions – such as resistances or mobilizations – aimed to negotiated more broadly and collectively the issues linked with the employment relation. Those reactions can involve new actors and their scope depends on the country and/or the economic sector. This workshop questions the extent of such politicizing and depoliticizing processes in order to grasp their size, the issues and the involved actors.

How to make: analysis of the process of creation in anthropology

L'analyse du processus créatif est actuellement un objet de recherche en pleine diffusion. Comment les chercheurs en sciences sociales peuvent-ils aujourd'hui construire leur propre objet d'étude autour du processus de création ? Plus particulièrement, quelle pourrait être la spécificité d’une approche anthropologique ? Comment gérer la pluridisciplinarité et les rapports avec d'autres disciplines scientifiques étudiant déjà des pratiques similaires (études musicologiques ou théâtrales, histoire de l'art, etc) ? Quelle méthodologie adopter et comment construire un terrain ethnographique cohérent et pertinent autour des processus de création ? Ce sont à ces quelques questions que ce colloque a pour ambition de répondre.
