CfP: Conflits, résistances et tensions dans les mondes du travail

 

L’École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) et l’École Normale Supérieure de Paris (ENS) organisent le 18 décembre prochain une journée d’étude au Campus Jourdain de l’ENS sur le thème : «Conflits, résistances et tensions dans les mondes du travail».

Dans cette perspective, un appel à communications vient d’être lancé, dont les grandes lignes sont les suivantes :

Social Policies and the Welfare State in the Global South (19th-20th Century)

 

The conference aims at stimulating the debate on the history and the interconnectedness of social policies in the 19th and 20th century. Why and how ideas and models of welfare travelled across the globe, and why and how actors took an interest in the topic and assumed an active part in this process form the core interests of this conference. It focuses on the Global South and aims at revealing both the diversity of policy fields and of the actors involved.
