  Conference, symposium - Sociology

  Women of glass, glass-making women

  Cette rencontre internationale, inédite, alterne communications à caractère historique et témoignages vivants, associant ainsi le regard de scientifiques et universitaires à ceux de professionnels de la pratique du verre, des cheffes d’entreprise, des musées et tout simplement des passionnés. Y sera cernée la place occupée par la gente féminine en verrerie, monde que l’on disait pourtant réservé aux hommes, aussi loin que remontent les études réalisées. Or, en faisant le choix de multiples aller-retour entre le passé et le présent, l'on comprend désormais combien la femme a toujours été présente en verrerie et l'est toujours.

  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.
