    Conference, symposium - Political studies

    Do elected representatives (really) like democracy ?

    Political staff facing citizen participation

    What is the relationship of elected officials with democracy and citizen participation? How do they perceive their roles as representatives, their status and their political room for maneuver? How do they understand the democratic role of citizens and their skills? How do these issues determine different profiles of elected officials and different political trajectories? What are the relationships of elected representatives and partisan organizations with democratic institutional reforms. How do they deal with the issue of democratizing democracy? These questions will be at the heart of this conference. Based on empirical work, original or reviewed, this symposium aims to show how elected representatives imagine what "good participation" should be, how they relate to the so-called "democratization" or "deprofessionalization" of political life, how they conceive the social demand for participation, how they construct policies of participation on this basis (often referred to as "supply policies") and potentially draw lessons about their own democratic experiences and their roles as representatives. At the crossroads of the sociology of public action, political roles and political behaviors, this conference aims to sum up the current state of research about political staff facing citizen participation.

    Questioning institutionalism and women's rights - dynamics, issues and effects

    Dynamiques, enjeux, effets

    Ces journées d’étude proposent d’interroger l’institutionnalisation de l’espace de la cause des femmes, entendu au sens de « configuration des sites de mobilisation au nom des femmes et pour les femmes dans une pluralité de sphères sociales » (Bereni, 2015). L'institutionnalisation de la cause des femmes semble s’être progressivement imposée comme un état de fait, tant dans les études universitaires (Baudino, 2000 ; Dauphin, 2010) que dans les discours des militant·e·s, certain·e·s s’en félicitant d’autres la dénonçant. Mais que recouvre ce processus ? Comment mesurer cette institutionnalisation ? Quels sont les effets de cette professionnalisation dans les différents champs de l’espace ? À quels écueils se heurte cette dynamique ? Assiste-t-on à une marginalisation intra-institutionnelle des problématiques féministes ? Quels sont les effets de l'institutionnalisation sur les trajectoires des actrices et acteurs concerné·e·s ?
