  Summer School - History

  Work organization in Medieval and Modern periods

  6th summer school of economic history

  The topic of the the sixth economic history summer school will enable us to continue and deepen the themes developed over the past few years (the value of things, poverty, common goods, means of payment and quality). While work involves acting on material things, its organization implies a reflection on the property of things, the relationships with time, discipline, control and know-how. On the part of governments, it also requires information that makes it possible to reflect on the state of economic life as well as on all the conflicts endemic to society, to be able to work out legal and practical devices that are necessary for the constitution of a particular knowledge. It also finally questions issues around technical training and the command of various forms of know-how, in contexts that sometimes place some rival systems in a competing situation.

  Summer School - History

  Economies of quality. People and things in medieval and modern markets

  5th summer school of economic history

  La V^e école d’été d’histoire économique, qui se réunira à Suse (Piémont, Italie), les 28, 29 et 30 août 2016, aura comme thème « Les économies de la qualité. Les personnes et les choses sur les marchés médiévaux et modernes ». Cette thématique permettra de poursuivre et d’approfondir celles qui ont été développées les années précédentes (la valeur des choses, la pauvreté, les biens communs, les moyens de paiement). La question de la qualité se situe à la croisée de l’histoire et de la sociologie économique, permettant d’aborder aussi bien l’étude de mécanismes productifs et marchands que celle de savoir-faire.
