  The territories of gastronomy

  Ce colloque sera l'occasion de faire dialoguer plusieurs disciplines et se croiser divers champs scientifiques. Notre thématique des territoires de la gastronomie nous amènera à nous interroger sur la diversité, l’originalité, et la plasticité des territoires où la gastronomie se déguste, se « crée », s’ancre et infuse par les discours et les imaginaires. Comprendre où et comment la gastronomie est devenue un enjeu socio-économique, environnemental et culturel, saisir sa place et sa diffusion dans l’espace social et ses représentations, appréhender son rôle dans la définition-redéfinition du local et du locavorisme et analyser le traitement que lui réservent les artistes, sur la toile ou sur la page. Le colloque sera l’occasion donc de voir comment se façonnent, s’organisent, se singularisent voire se chevauchent ces territoires tant gustatifs que culturels, patrimoniaux, paysagers ou socioéconomiques et qui se constituent à partir de la chose gastronomique.

  Tourism in Indonesia and Southern Countries

  A vector of sustainable development?

  The objective of the conference is to analyze the effect of tourism, questioning more specifically in this second edition its potential for becoming a vector of sustainable development, understood in its more general sense. Within this framework, we will question its economic impact, as well as its social effects, on Indonesia and Southern countries. We are interested in knowing how extra income is redistributed to the local population and whether it affects, or on the contrary, strengthens the traditional organizations of the communities, bringing new actors, investors, decision-makers in the traditional social organization.

  Towards a history of children's rights in the 20th century

  Transnational approaches

  This symposium aims to explore how mobilization, knowledge, norms and institutions designed to further children's rights were articulated within transnational space. These rights straddle different fields: law and justice, social policy, education and leisure, public health and humanitarian intervention, etc. The symposium plans to examine the social practices and the construction of the sphere of child advocacy. It also aims to reconstitute the historical experience of the actors, in particular the role of the children themselves in constituting their rights by marshaling the concept of citizenship.
