  European Conference on Risk Perception

  Behaviour, Management and Response

  The actual behaviour of individuals and government entities before, during, and immediately after a disaster can dramatically affect the impact, vulnerability, recovery time and resilience. Despite decades of research on disaster risk and perception, studies on actual damages and responses after disasters, decision-making tools, and actionable knowledge of the actual behaviour of the populations are still a challenge. Uncertainty derives from lack of information, lack of trust, alternatives, previous experience, but also segregation, oppression, etc. This conference is addressing the knowledge gap between risk perception, evacuation, response, and adaptation behaviour. It aims to build a multidisciplinary panoramic European view.

  In Search of Cultural Conformity

  The New Integration and Migration Policies in Europe

  MAM is a network of scholars from the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB) who have been working together for almost ten years on Migrations, Asylum and Multiculturalism (MAM). This research tested the hypothesis that the citizenship regime mutated since the 2000s. While between the 1980s and 2000 integration policies followed the logic of establishing migrants’ rights through the granting of formal status, since the 2000s a new regime of probationary citizenship seems to focus on the principles of merit and of cultural conformity. The results of this research, which includes comparative analyses of the policies, analyses of the their origins and implementation, and analyses of the attitudes of different groups towards the policies, will be put in comparison with the researches of different international experts.

  Study days - Sociology

  Care and Intersectionality

  Cette journée entend fournir un espace collaboratif qui vise à construire des notions théoriques transdisciplinaires fortes pour mettre au centre de la réflexion le point de vue, les expériences et les résistances de sujets politiques marginalisés. Dans le souci de produire, à partir de contextes et de points de vue hétérogènes, un déplacement épistémologique, méthodologique et conceptuel qui rende compte d’expériences subalternisées, il nous paraît important de remobiliser les héritages politiques et théoriques de l’intersectionnalité et du care. De fait, pensés « avec » et « depuis » les marges, ces deux paradigmes font apparaître (ou requalifient) les portées éthiques et politiques d’expériences et de savoirs relégués. Nos recherches multisituées gagneraient à revenir sur ces outils, afin de produire des « connexions » prometteuses d’avenir.
