    Intersections between the system of production and the cultural system

    FORMA has gone out with a new call for papers for an introductory issue in what will be a five year project exploring the intersection between the system of production and the cultural system. Accepting papers that investigate this subject from a wide array of perspectives, from biopolitics and bioethics, to technology, ecology, education, (geo)political conflicts, and more, this aims to be an interdisciplinary, comparative issue with a focus on the humanities understood broadly.

    From emergences to recognition. Paths of innovation

    L’étude des innovations sociales nous amène à examiner ce qui se construit, ce qui émerge de la base (Lévesque, 2014). Cela invite à une coconstruction d’une approche fédératrice et émancipatrice permettant non seulement une reconnaissance de la pratique par la théorie et une reconnaissance de la théorie par la pratique, mais également une théorisation par observation et mise en dialogue des innovations et transformations en cours (Hall and Lamont, 2009; Klein et al., 2016). Par une attention portée aux initiatives et émergences sociales ainsi qu’aux acteurs et actrices qui les mettent en œuvre, ce colloque cherche à participer à la construction d’une telle approche.

    Justice and Climate Transitions

    In the lead up to the 2015 UN Paris Climate Conference the Paris Institute for Advanced Studies will hold an interdisciplinary conference on “Justice and Climate Transitions” organised with the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. The Conference will bring together leading thinkers from philosophy, policy and the social sciences to examine the moral, social and political issues at stake in transition to a low carbon society. Panellists are invited to discuss how might we interpret and evaluate different transition pathways and low-carbon futures in terms of social justice. The aim is to present both philosophical and critical social scientific perspectives on these questions before bringing these into dialogue with each other.

    Protecting the self and others

    Research lunchtimes

    Comment (se) protège-t-on ? De quoi, de qui ? Pour quelles raisons ? A l’heure où la question de la sécurité des personnes et des biens fait la une des médias et se trouve au coeur des préoccupations politiques et citoyennes, ce cycle de conférences se propose de voir, sous divers angles de recherche, comment le principe de sécurité est à la source de catégorisations, stigmatisations, exclusions, actions personnelles et collectives, subjectivations et résistances.
