  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.

  Conference, symposium - Law

  The Drug. What's the law ? History

  Comment les dispositions normatives s’inscrivent-elles dans la ligne d’évolution du droit du médicament ? Comment rendre transparente l’information nécessaire tout en préservant les secrets de l’industrie pharmaceutique qu’implique le contexte concurrentiel sous la tension extrême des puissances de l’argent ? Quels seront désormais le sens et la portée nouveaux de l’AMM (Autorisation de mise sur le marché) ? Surtout : quelles seront la nature et la portée de la surveillance post quem du médicament ? L’histoire donne des repères sans failles et un fil conducteur : l’histoire éclaire la situation présente, bien focalisée sur les préoccupations qui forgeront l’avenir de notre société ; tel sera l’objet du premier colloque sur le médicament.

  The Earth, The Vital Issue of the 21st century

  We will be looking at all aspects of this multi-dimensional signifier connected to India and Africa : earth as a metaphor: a mystic symbol, the womb of humanity ; earth as land – territory, homeland, to have and to hold and to guard at the risk of one’s life ; earth the element : the soil which nourishes us, to which we ultimately must return ; earth – mankind’s victim or treasure – to be exploited ruthlessly or cherished lovingly? We welcome papers that explore any of the many facets of this element from academics working in the fields of Cultural Studies, Literature, History, Sociology, Film, Music, Art, Linguistics, Politics.
