Rails and urban development. A Comparative Approach between France and the United Kingdom
In many countries, the challenges of sustainable urban development along with preoccupations about energy costs, are leading developers and urban planners to place rail transport at the centre of their concerns. During 2012 members of the French and British Planning Studies Group based at the University of Liverpool and University of Paris 1-Sorbonne have been collaborating on hosting two seminars dedicated to the theme of rail transport and urban development. The intention has been to bring together academics with practitioners and also incorporate visits to view rail investments ‘on the ground’. The first event took place in Paris in May 2012 and addressed light rail development in Europe with a particular focus on the situation in the UK and France. The second seminar will take place in Liverpool on Thursday 29 and Friday 30 November 2012 and consider heavy rail as a means of serving urban development in metropolitan areas. -

Bourses de la Chambre des députés de Berlin
La Chambre des députés de Berlin a créé en 1994 une Fondation d’études et un programme de bourses en guise de remerciement tardif aux anciennes puissances alliées. Puissances d’occupation ou de protection, elles ont marqué notre ville, sa vie culturelle et politique, pendant près de cinquante ans après la fin du second conflit mondial. La Chambre des députés de Berlin a chargé sa Fondation d'études de maintenir, d’approfondir et d’étendre les nombreux contacts et liens d’amitié avec la France, la Grande-Bretagne et les USA, ainsi qu’avec les États successeurs de l'Union soviétique. La Fondation d’études soutient de jeunes chercheurs originaires de ces pays souhaitant réaliser un projet de recherche portant sur Berlin, et plus généralement sur l’Allemagne. -

Les villes morcelées : quelles approches alternatives pour la rénovation urbaine ?
Tackling Urban Fragmentation. Alternative Approaches to Urban Regeneration
This one day conference invites researchers working on initiatives aiming at introducing innovative urban regeneration projects in cities across Europe, particularly cities affected by radical re-modellings over the last twenty years. We are looking for instances of administrative traditions being challenged towards exploratory strategies by lobbying groups of architects/designers, or local communities, or even local governments. This conference wants to explore if and how the expertise of uses from inhabitants and field workers in urban regeneration processes may be integrated to learn about possible ways of challenging the emerging patterns of urban fragmentation. -

Transforming South-East Asian Cities: a View from the Grassroots
7th EuroSEAS Conference – 7th groupe "Environment, cities and housing", panel 72
Based on empirical approaches, the aim of this panel is to analyze contemporary urban dynamics at the local scale in Southeast Asian cities. In particular we will address mechanisms of urban change, as they can be seen at the neighborhood level. With the ongoing transformations, both in city centers and in the peripheries, are there new forms of urban practices, of resistance? What is the role of the people at the grassroots in such transformations? These interactions can be read from such scales as the home, the street and the neighborhood. From this viewpoint, how can we consider urban oppositional processes, for instance a formal sector to an informal one, public actors to private ones, the authorities to citizens? -

Les sources de la mondialisation : pour une approche réflexive
Thématique émergente des sciences humaines et sociales il y a encore une vingtaine d’années, la mondialisation est devenue une interrogation majeure de l'ensemble de leurs disciplines. Question à la fois récente et transversale, son étude a ainsi donné lieu à une pluralité d’approches, car ce sont des disciplines anciennement constituées qui en ont pris en charge l'analyse, chacune privilégiant ses méthodes, ses questionnements, ses niveaux de compréhension, etc. Économistes, sociologues, anthropologues ou historiens ont ainsi découpé « l'objet mondialisation » selon les catégories que leur fournissait l'histoire de leurs disciplines. Cette diffraction se complexifie, par ailleurs, si l'on met en regard différents champs scientifiques nationaux : l'analyse de la mondialisation y est non seulement menée par des disciplines aux traditions différentes, mais aussi en fonction des principes propres qui structurent chaque espace national. -

1as Jornadas Internacionales de Antropología del conflicto urbano
Deserciones, contra-movimientos y movilidades forzadas en la ciudad contemporánea
The aim of this conference is to make an inventory and to analyze, from different ethnographic approaches, those often invisible phenomena of daily or extraordinary disobedience designed for, or inspired by, a rejection of spatial, economic, political, and social order. However, in order to identify them as mechanisms aimed at denouncing a particular order, we must approach these by looking at concepts that synthesize at once the processes that impose a homogeneous order as well as the practices that challenge it. -

Rethinking urban inclusion. Spaces, mobilizations, interventions
The Conference aims to understand and ultimately rethink social inclusion at the urban scale, as the product of broader dynamics and the interaction of different actors and languages. It will focus on emerging modes of contesting the centrality of the state and market pervasiveness, new varieties of counter-hegemonic positions and projects, and alternative visions of urban democracy and justice that inform bottom-up and participatory approaches to urban inclusion. By mixing academic with social movement and civil society “expertise,” experiences of both the global North and the global South, and the languages of social science and policy with those of the humanities and art, the Conference aims to contribute to an “ecology of knowledges” that gives visibility to new forms of collective action and community experimentation reshaping contemporary cities in different contexts. -

Cosmobilities conference 2012
The Lausanne Cosmobilities Conference focuses on the question of which systems of governance are involved in these processes and how they are evolving as a result of these trends at a time when the future looks less and less like the past. In contrast to mainstream scientific literature and studies on transport and mobility dominated by works on travel and commuting, in this conference we propose to examine the governance of individual and collective actors’ mobility projects. In modern societies, where discourses lauding spatial and social mobility seem prevalent, this conference aims to understand critically how public policies consider the coexistence of different types of mobility projects, and inequalities linked to this diversity. -
