Du 'travail ménager' au 'care'. Histoire et enjeux actuels

Du "travail ménager" au "care"
Histoire et enjeux actuels

Rencontre-débat

Mercredi 24 janvier 2018
18h45-22h

Université ouvrière de Genève, 3 place des Grottes

Sous la conduite de Jacqueline Berenstein-Wavre, le Collège du travail s'est engagé dès 1983 pour la reconnaissance de la valeur sociale et économique du travail domestique. A l'occasion de la mise en ligne de l'inventaire de deux fonds d'archives, effectué grâce à l'appui de la Fondation Emilie Gourd, cette rencontre-débat revient sur l'histoire de cette lutte et ses enjeux actuels.

CfP: Global Decolonization Workshop III: The Invention and Reinvention of Decolonization: Rethinking the ‘Waves’ Narrative

Was ‘decolonization’ a European invention designed to ease the ‘White Man’s Burden’ and pave the way for a neo-colonial system of extraction and dependency? Was it a Latin American invention intended to undo ‘the colonial system?’ Or was it an Indian, French Algerian or Caribbean invention? All the above? Is the received ‘wave’ narrative (first, second, third, fourth waves) currently used to tell the global history of decolonization still adequate to the task? Or would notions such as ‘invention’ and ‘reinvention’ be more useful?

We seek papers that address any of the following:
