Summary
Nowadays, new debates on post-growth economy are at stake, notably in reaction to the financial crises; in France, new forms of social and solidary economy (SSE) are emerging, challenging the neoliberal economic model. Meanwhile in the UK, the “transition movement” initiated by Rob Hopkins has increased in power through engaged citizen initiatives. These pave the way for a collective reflexion on post-growth We intend to contribute with this work to the exploration of links between civic initiatives and the new development modes they give shape to. This call for papers intends to contribute to the debate, while proposing a specific field of investigation: rural territories.

General topic
Nowadays, new debates on post-growth economy are at stake, notably in reaction to the financial crises ; in France, new forms of social and solidary economy (SSE) are emerging, challenging the neoliberal economic model. Meanwhile in the UK, the « transition movement » initiated by Rob Hopkins has increased in power through engaged citizen initiatives. These pave the way for a collective reflexion on post-growth We intend to contribute with this work to the exploration of links between civic initiatives and the new development modes they give shape to. This call for papers intends to contribute to the debate, while proposing a specific field of investigation : rural territories.
What is the role of disciplines of space and project in the increase of such initiatives in rural territory ?
In the panorama of different schools of thought relevant to post-growth – like bio-economics or the so-called “pleasing sobriety” or “convivial shrinkage” to name but some of them – what singular concepts and approaches can one detect in rural territories? How does the consideration of such economic reflexions participate in new forms for conceiving, implementing and, upstream, programming space ?
Beyond Europe, one of the pioneer and emblematic figures having included such economic questions within spatial conception is Auburn, Alabama University’s Rural studio, already covered by the third volume of our collection. Which are in France and Europe the teaching and research experiments where emerging post-growth economic questions are a leverage for the project approach ?
The call for papers addresses academic communities linked to disciplines of spatial planning and project ( architects, urban planners, landscape architects, designers , etc) as well as the humanities, particularly, the restitution of case studies in teaching and research, realized projects and bottom-up experiments exploring such stakes.
The stakes of post-growth may be dealt with at different scales of the organisation of everyday life : from the organisation of the home and dwelling to that of communities represented by the hamlet, the village or the small town.
In the fist case, one may seek to refer oneself mainly to the economical processes linked to the conception and the construction of an edifice, notably focussing on the diversity of circuits engaged in their building process, but also on the organisation of every day life of its inhabitants.
In the latter case, one may deal with the territorial space representing collective or interconnected stakes of communities. This scale may also question the content of urban planning documents, and their capacity to integrate economical stakes relevant to rural territories, but may also deal with different emerging co-conceived or negotiated project approaches.
The adoption of a certain analytical scale should be completed with interaction with other scales that may be relevant regarding principles of solidarity (subsidiarity, conviviality etc), existing between actors, instances and strategies of the designated spatial categories.
Format of the publication
This call for papers addresses French and international scientific communities: teachers, researchers, PhD students involved in spatial planning disciplines and humanities.
Selected papers will be published as articles in volume 8 of the ERPS collection at the Les contributions sélectionnées seront publiées sous forme d’un article dans le volume 8 de la collection ERPS at Saint-Etienne University Press (6 volumes published currently). A new bilingual format is adapted starting volume 7 (forthcoming February 2018).
This publication is a follow-up of the international symposium organized by ENSAP Bordeaux, UMR Passages and the ERPS and ARENA Alter-Rurality networks entitled economic transitions and new ruralities, held at Sabres, National Regional Parc les Landes de Gascogne, May 10th-12th 2017.
