  The history of cooperation - experiences and practices

  Le centre Georges Chevrier de l'université de Bourgogne organise trois journées d'études entre juin 2017 et février 2018, autour des pratiques et des expériences des entreprises coopératives, qui se tiendront à Dijon et à Paris. Centrées autour de trois thèmes, le travail, la modernisation et les conditions de l'échec, ces journées se veulent l'occasion de réfléchir aux pratiques quotidiennes des coopérateurs, dans une forme d'organisation économique qui se définit comme alternative. Nous sollicitons des contributions issues de l'étude de diverses aires géographiques, du XIX^e siècle jusqu'à la période très récente.

  Farming systems’ crises, food insecurity and peasant resistance

  Which ways for an authentic sustainable development?

  The food issue keeps feeding concern and controversy. Rightly since the fate of a large fraction of humankind is at stake: the number of people suffering from hunger has exceeded one billion in 2009, which is intolerable, in spite of its slow current reduction. Nowadays speculating about the population growth is rather outdated, since it is practically admitted that the Earth will reach a maximum of ten billion people in the course of this century. The actual question is how to ensure a decent food supply to all of this population, on account of resources that are indeed globally limited and above all most unequally distributed. The current crisis of farming systems throughout the world is a ransom for centuries of collective irresponsibility.
