  Comparative perspectives to social innovation in SMEs

  New faces, a diversity of contexts, alternative approaches and issues

  Ce colloque s’intéresse ainsi à l’innovation sociale et à l’une de ses modalités, l’entrepreneuriat social, dans la diversité de leurs espaces, formes, processus, ou résultats. Il s’agira, à travers la mise en commun d’expertises et de résultats de recherche, de faire le point sur l’état actuel des connaissances, de questionner les approches retenues pour l’étude de l’innovation sociale intra-organisation, et d’en cerner les modalités d’évaluation et l’impact. L’ambition est, notamment, de poser des bases innovantes d’un cadre conceptuel renouvelé, transdisciplinaire, post-moderne, post-colonial, et/ou critique.

  Herbs and humanity. For a material and cultural history

  The expansion and culture of herbs around the world - text and image

  From the peaks of the Himalaya to the Mediterranean Sea, from the outset of the Silk Road to the far reaches of the Eurasian continent, the economy and culture of herbs has expanded over the course of time. Whether used as common products of consumption or considered as rare and valuable commodities, sold in their raw form or transformed, these medicinal or aromatic herbs have become precious cultural ambassadors in encounters with more and more faraway horizons. This book project centers on the idea of herbs as vectors of encounters and cultural exchanges. Indeed, the expansion and use of herbs around the world have led to the emergence of interacting and expanding cultural practices. The focus will be on defining the specific fields pertaining to the knowledge of herbs, with a particular interest in their cultivation, harvesting, commercialisation and circulation.
