Autoproduction: When the artist or designer is the Producer of their own work

2nd International Meeting of Art and Design

Appel à contribution. Les deuxièmes Rencontres internationales de l’art et du design, organisées par l’École supérieure d’art et de design de Reims, auront cette année pour thème l’autoproduction. Mettant en cause des modèles de développement, de consommation et de représentation de l’industrie à grande échelle, de plus en plus de designers choisissent – ou sont contraints - de se (ré)approprier le territoire de la production. Diverses et variées, leurs démarches se posent comme des systèmes d’adaptation à la crise économique et industrielle de ces dernières années, aussi bien que comme des prises de positions éthiques, esthétiques et politiques. Ces Rencontres seront l’occasion de circonscrire les enjeux théoriques et plastiques de l’autoproduction dans le contexte socioéconomique et culturel actuel.

Postwar Planning in Transnational Perspective

European Association for Urban History - 2012 Prague

For this Main Session at the EAUH 11th International Conference (Prague, August 29 - September 1, 2012), we invite papers that bring a transnational or comparative methodology to bear on planning postwar cities in Europe and North America. We are interested in how ideas about planning were exchanged across national borders and how planning in turn shaped trans-Atlantic shifts in political ideologies. Paper topics can range from specific urban interventions, such as the provision of housing, to the way cities fit into broader programs of social reform, Keynesianism, or market-oriented competition. We encourage contributions from all disciplines.

Corruption and conflicts of interests

Third seminar of the "Economic analysis of public law and policies" series

Participants to the November 24 2010 session on Impact Assessment and the Scientific Committee of the Seminar have suggested that, broadly speaking, topics revolving around corruption, the rule of law and good governance would be of interest for the next session. We feel that, within this array, corruption stricto sensu and the broader set of public agents behaviours generally described as characterizing a situation of “conflict of interest” may be a good focus. The day will focus, more precisely, on the analysis of the determinants of corruption, and the impact of corruption on economic growth. Certain major concepts such as agency or transparency should be part of the analysis and debate in order to open a broad discussion on the rationale and efficiency of anti-corruption policies.
