Capitalization and the Start-Up Economy
Critical Perspectives on Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Venture Capitalism
For the past twenty years, social sciences have studied financialization as a process affecting many (if not almost all) aspects of contemporary societies. More recently, research at the crossroads of sociology, economics and the science and technology studies (STS) developed a new understanding of financialization, centered on how “things are turned into assets” (Birch and Muniesa 2020). Such a perspective provides useful tools for critically examining the start-up economy and emerging business practices related to venture capital funding. This workshop aims to bring together scholars from science and technology studies and beyond who work to develop a transversal perspective across various cultural sites and practices. Through different formats (keynote, round table, panels), the workshop will offer a setting to conduct in-depth discussions on capitalization.

Vulnerability in Arts and Culture: Risks and Responses
How does vulnerability occur in fields such as music and its different genres, performing arts, literature, visual arts and museums, or film/cinema and other media? How is vulnerability expressed and by whom, and how do cultural policies or public actors as well as the artists themselves deal with the connected risks? How are respective audiences vulnerable or perceive vulnerabilities differently from artists? Are there differences regarding vulnerability between the different artistic domains or with regards to national specificities in the measurement of and responses to this issue? These questions and more can be addressed in papers critically examining these vulnerabilities.

DIY cultures, democracy and creative participation
The year 2024 marks the 10th anniversary of KISMIF and the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution in Portugal. In addition, remembering the recent loss of Howard S. Becker, the KISMIF Conference will dedicate one of its thematic lines to scientific contributions related to the work of Becker, with the intent of recognizing the transformative and innovative potential of his sociological research, thus highlighting the importance of the concept of art worlds – amongst others – which he developed and which – since 2014 – has served as the motto for the organisation of this far-reaching international conference. As such KISMIF 2024 will serve as a pivotal occasion of reunion and celebration.

Préserver la santé et la sécurité des enfants en agriculture
Webinaire 2023
Au niveau mondial, l’agriculture est l’une des industries les plus dangereuses et aussi l’une des rares qui implique constamment des enfants. Que les enfants travaillent ou soient simplement présents sur l’exploitation agricole, ils sont exposés à un large éventail de risques liés à l’agriculture. De ce fait, ces enfants connaissent des taux élevés de blessures et de décès par rapport aux enfants de la population générale. Comprendre et résoudre les problèmes de santé et de sécurité des enfants du milieu agricole est important du point de vue de la santé publique et de la défense des droits des enfants. La protection des enfants dans l’agriculture est également liée à la durabilité sociale et économique des systèmes agricoles. Ce séminaire invite à faire la lumière sur la santé et la sécurité des enfants dans l’agriculture dans les pays du Nord et du Sud, en mettant l’accent sur les systèmes d’exploitation familiale et à soutenir le développement d’un réseau de chercheurs et de praticiens travaillant sur ces sujets.

Shifting Categories of Work. Unsettling the Ways We Think about Jobs, Labor and Activities
Hybrid Book Launch and Panel Discussion in the presence of the authors
What do we do when we work? How is work organized? What are its economic, social, political, ecological and biographical effects? We cannot answer these questions without going through the multiple categories that are used to describe work, such as "skilled" work, "domestic work", "wage work", "platform work", "essential work" etc. But where do these categories come from, what is their history, how do they differ from each other? But where do these categories come from, what is their history, how do they differ from country to country and how do they evolve? Shifting Categories of Work asks these questions, highlighting the many ways in which our societies categorise work.

Social Changes in Contemporary Southeast Asia
Exploring New Forms of Labour Regimes
As social, ethnic or religious, identity or position in the political hierarchy is more often pronounced in Southeast Asian societies, labour is rarely at the centre. In particular, labour does not often appear to be at the root of the formation of inequalities. In reality, the labour factor - including migrant labour - clearly fuels the regional dynamics of growth, and enables trade specialisation just as its mobilisation has, in the colonial past, enabled insertion into the international division of labour. This conference seeks to bring labour back in at the centre of the analysis. Offering a rare opportunity to pay tribute to the main oeuvres and pioneering authors in the field in Southeast Asia, it will open space to recent ongoing research on social changes with respect to labour relations, working conditions, labour norms, and wages.

The History of Office Buildings
Perspectives on Users and Uses
At the two-day workshop Perspectives on Uses and Users in the History of Office Buildings, which will take place at the Belval campus of the University of Luxembourg (Esch-sur-Alzette) on 30 November and 1 December 2023, we aim to deconstruct the managerial and architectural determinants of the 20th-century office building. The analytical focus lies on the dialectic relationship between planning and usage. Concretely, we seek to investigate how clients, architects, and interior designers interacted with users of office buildings, and how they subsequently modified their conceptions (or failed to do so). Conversely, we are interested in the bottom-up perspective: how did office workers voice their opinion on the buildings in which they were housed?

Digital Labor in the Wake of Pandemic Times
The last few years have been marked by a global economic crisis, strains on both institutions and labor markets, and unprecedented disruptions in the mobility of goods and people. Covid-19 has profoundly affected the way we work, causing an increase in people turning to digital labor platforms to deal with the uncertainties of an unstable economy. Even in the formal sector, remote work and automation have led to dramatic changes in the workplace. In navigating this new reality, it is crucial to examine how these changes are impacting workers, businesses, and society as a whole. By bringing together researchers, workers, policymakers, and practitioners, the INDL-6 conference “Digital Labor in the wake of Pandemic Times” addresses the latest developments and challenges in the fields of technology-mediated labor, platformization, and automation.

Guest editors Nele Aernouts (VUB), Emmanuelle Lenel (USL-B) and Christine Schaut (ULB) invite contributions for the themed issue of Clara 10 “Inhabiting Collectivity”. This issue of Clara pursues a twofold objective. At a larger scale, it aims at shedding light on the context within which collective housing is produced, on their underpinning architectural and spatial models, and on the interplay among the involved actors. At a smaller scale, it questions the intentions underlying this production by investigating its architectural and social mechanisms, and how these can foster or instead hinder certain uses and forms of sociability.

International Association on Work in Agriculture’s Webinars
Las transformaciones de las cadenas de valor agroalimentarias y de los sistemas alimentarios, tanto en el Norte como en el Sur y en su articulación Norte/Sur, impactan y cuestionan las dinámicas del trabajo y del empleo en la agricultura y en toda la cadena. La investigación sobre los sistemas alimentarios y las cadenas de valor aborda las cuestiones del trabajo y el empleo de diferentes maneras. Desde una perspectiva global, se relaciona principalmente con las normas sociales y el trabajo decente. Desde una perspectiva local, se plantean otras cuestiones laborales y de empleo. La Asociación Internacional sobre el Trabajo en la Agricultura (IAWA) le invita a compartir sus conocimientos e investigaciones actuales sobre la siguiente cuestión clave: cómo abordan las estrategias y los mecanismos de transformación de las cadenas de valor y los sistemas alimentarios las diferentes cuestiones laborales y de empleo.

At the convergence of applied musicology and social action
The 2022 international Meetings on Music Mediations
This international forum aims to propose a transnational overview of the current state of research on music mediation and to share the various outlooks on these practices. In addition to its theoretical impact that aims to systematize the observations, this forum will offer multiple opportunities for meetings between practitioners and for networking between practice and research communities. This will be as much about highlighting the professional knowledge of actors in the chain of mediation professions as about giving visibility to the most recent research findings in the field.

Bourdieu, Work and Inequalities
What can Pierre Bourdieu teach us about work and inequalities? On the 20th anniversary of his death, this conference will gather social scientists from all around the world to discuss how his legacy can shed light on workplace and labour market processes and how these feed into inequalities. While Bourdieu is widely perceived as a sociologist of social class, education, and culture, many recent works prove that it is possible and fruitful to analyse work and employment in Bourdieusian terms. At a time of rising economic inequality, we revisit Bourdieu to reflect on how his concepts can be deployed, elaborated, and refined in research on work and inequality.

Langues de travail / langues au travail
Revue « Études en didactique des langues », n° 38
Ce numéro d’Études en Didactique des Langues est consacré à la relation entre le monde du travail et les langues. Les expressions « langue de travail » et « langue au travail » recouvrent des réalités différentes. La première est une langue utilisée dans un contexte professionnel, de façon majoritaire. La seconde est utilisée pour effectuer certaines tâches telles que la rédaction d’un rapport, une notice, un article. Se pose alors le problème de la formation en amont. L’apprentissage/acquisition des langues, dans l’enseignement supérieur en particulier, est un aspect primordial de la formation de l’étudiant·e. Se pose aussi le problème de l’anglais omniprésent. Quelle place accorder pour les autres langues dans la formation afin de nourrir la réflexion sur l’interface entre l’entreprise et la formation ?
