    Transformations in food systems and agrifood value chains: How do work and employment come into play?

    International Association on Work in Agriculture’s Webinars

    Les transformations des chaînes de valeur agroalimentaires et des systèmes alimentaires, tant au Nord qu’au Sud et dans leur articulation Nord/Sud, impactent et questionnent les dynamiques du travail et de l’emploi en agriculture et tout au long de la chaîne. La recherche sur les systèmes alimentaires et les chaînes de valeur aborde les questions de travail et d’emploi de différentes manières. D’un point de vue global, elle est principalement liée aux normes sociales et au travail décent. D’un point de vue local, d’autres questions relatives au travail et à l’emploi sont soulevées. L’Association internationale sur le travail en agriculture (IAWA) vous invite à partager vos connaissances et vos recherches actuelles sur la question clé suivante : comment les stratégies et les mécanismes de transformation des chaînes de valeur et des systèmes alimentaires abordent-ils les différentes questions relatives au travail et à l’emploi ?

    PhD fellowship for a research project on “Reinventions of modernist rural landscapes”

    Focus: Rural planning in Morocco – 20th century

    MODSCAPES deals with rural landscapes produced by large-scale agricultural development and colonization schemes planned in the 20th century throughout Europe and beyond. Conceived in different political and ideological contexts, such schemes were pivotal to nation-building and state-building policies, and to the modernization of the countryside. They provided a testing ground for the ideas and tools of environmental and social scientists, architects, engineers, planners, landscape architects and artists, which converged around a shared challenge.

    Complex realities and transformations in work in a diversity of farming models

    The international symposium on work in agriculture 2016

    Transformations of farming systems are marked by increasingly important challenges regarding the environment, food safety and competitiveness of enterprises. How do these transformations bring farming work into question? But farming work has also kept a very strong social and territorial dimension: it gives a place and a status to everyone; it nurtures, safeguards and stabilizes a rural population, and strengthens solidarities largely founded on a local cultural relationship with nature and on agriculture and livestock management. The economic, social and environmental functions of farming work coexist. In rural territories, they may sometimes be complementary, but they can also be quite strained.

    Concilier expertise scientifique et participation : le défi posé par la Convention européenne des paysages

    L'Institut de gestion de l'environnement et d'aménagement du territoire – ULB (avec l'appui du département d'histoire-UNamur et de la Conférence permanente du développement territorial) organise les 28 et 29 avril 2014 un colloque portant sur « Concilier expertise scientifique et participation :  le défi posé par la Convention européenne des paysages ». Le colloque servira également à étudier la manière dont  les outils de caractérisation des paysages sont construits et dans quelle mesure ils aident les acteurs du paysage (décideurs politiques, gestionnaires,…) à prendre une position en accord avec les besoins sociétaux (économiques, sociaux, environnementaux). En plus des présentations et posters retenus, d’éminents intervenants enrichiront le colloque avec leurs perspectives/expériences spécifiques.

    Representations of Rurality in Crime Fiction and Media Culture

    Interdisciplinary Approaches to "Setting the Scene"

    The Institute for Collaborative Research in the Humanities at Queen’s University organises a two day Symposium in June 2015  (15 & 16th) as part of its theme of "Creativity in Imagined and Material Worlds". Devoted to representations of the rural,  it will bring together studies in crime fiction and media culture looking at a variety of outlets such as fiction, film, television, comics, games and many others and inspect their various engagements  with the concept of "rurality". Interdisciplinary papers are welcomed, but not contained to, Anthropology, Modern Languages, English, Film and Media Studies, History, Cultural Studies, Historical/Cultural/Rural Geography, Sociology, Spatial Planning. By bringing together an interdisciplinary group we will address how cultural constructions of the rural often ‘set the scene’ for crime fiction.

    Culture(s) in Sustainable Futures

    Theories, practices and policies

    Is culture the fourth pillar of sustainability alongside the ecological, economic and social aspects? How does culture act as a catalyst for ecological sustainability, human well-being and economic viability? What would our futures look like if sustainability was embedded in the multiple dimensions of culture? This landmark conference explores the roles and meanings of culture in sustainable development. The new ideas generated in the conference will inform and advance understandings of sustainability with cultural studies and practices, and vice versa.

    Rural History 2013

    Rural History 2013 is the first conference held under the auspices of the European Rural History Organisation (EURHO). It is organised by the Swiss Rural History Society (SRHS) and the Archives of Rural History (ARH) in Bern and takes place at the University of Bern from 19-22 August 2013. The main aim of the conference is to provide an overview of the state of the art of rural history today. Another goal is to strengthen the existing networks and co-operation of rural historians and their institutions. The conference will be an excellent occasion for historians to discuss the basic question of what exactly rural history is, how it can be narrated and, crucial for the future development of rural history, how the attractions of rural history in an era of worldwide urbanization can be communicated to the younger generation.

    Sustainability of Rural Systems

    Balancing Heritage and Innovation

    Belgium is a highly populated country with a long history of land exploitation. The landscape is modified through human impact, shaped by diverse agricultural practices, early urbanization and industrialization, the exploitation of quarries and mines and the dense development of canals, railways and motorway networks. Nevertheless, rural areas are important because farming activities, increasingly mechanized and technologically based, contribute to economic activity, especially to Belgian exports. Agriculture plays an important role in maintaining open space and offering many services, which may be called agroservices, to the new residents of the countryside and people seeking recreation. Due to this long history and sophisticated technological responses to different issues, Belgium is a suitable place to reflect on sustainability and how to balance cultural and natural heritage and innovation with special reference to the ecological and social dimensions.

    Modernism, modernisation and the rural landscape

    MODSCAPES_conference2018

    The impact of the Modern Movement and modernisation processes on rural landscapes in Europe and beyond is a widespread but little known, recognised or understood phenomenon which still exerts effects today. Within the third joint research programme of HERA (Humanities in the European Research Area) dedicated to “The uses of the past” which started in 2016, this subject is now being studied through several lenses within the MODSCAPES project. MODSCAPES welcomes proposals (full sessions, papers, trainnig/workshop) to its mid-event event, an international conference dedicated to Modernism, modernisation and the rural landscape.

    Centuriation systems and methods of agrarian organisation from the Roman period to the early Middle Age

    Methodological and interpretative issues

    One of the main characteristics of Roman settlement consists in the implementation of a series of interventions aiming at preparing specific areas for cultivation and making land divisions and distributions. The most important and characteristic feature of these operations is the realization of centuriation systems, that have often radically modified the landscape and agrarian morphology of the countryside. The aim of this conference is to define a methodological protocol of common lines of research on this subject, in order to assign specific roles to the different sources and research tools. The conference will also provide opportunities to deepen a number of themes concerning historical aspects of this phenomenon, particularly that of the continuity or discontinuity of the centuriation systems.

    Agricultures, durabilité et territoires

    Appel à contributions pour Géocarrefour - Call for Papers for Geocarrefour

    Nous souhaitons poser dans ce numéro la question de la durabilité de l’agriculture en lien avec celle des territoires ruraux. Les contributions sont attendues autour de trois axes principaux : 1) Comment se crée le consensus autour d’une agriculture durable ? 2) La remise en cause des types et des systèmes de production ; 3) La "vivabilité" de l'activité agricole.Envisager la question de la durabilité de l’agriculture en lien avec les territoires renouvelle la capacité de la géographie rurale à articuler espace, activité et dimension temporelle. Elle est un appel à l’ouverture disciplinaire. Des articles sur la France et l’Europe sont les bienvenus, mais aussi sur les Amériques ou d’autres régions du monde, notamment les pays dits « en voie de développement ».
