    Call for papers - Sociology

    Socio-spatial representations and relationship with others

    The fifth call for papers from the International Conference of the Cartotête network intends to bring together researchers interested in the impact of the relationship with others in the process of cognitive mapping. Our biannual conference will be devoted to themes which aim to better understand to which extent the relationship with others affects the social representations of geographical space, so as for broadening the horizon of research works carried out on the collective memory and the social space. Relevance will be granted to the alterity, especially in its contemporary and concrete reality without excluding its symbolic dimensions.

    Undergound Atmospheres. Renewing the debate

    This special issue of Ambiances aims to highlight shared topics and possible bridges between actors who usually operate on different scales. We encourage reflections questioning the stakes and methods of the construction of inhabited space in its verticality by reintroducing the question of the underground, not as a soffit but as a living and evolving interface. The issue invites researchers, practitioners of the operational world and designers from different fields, who will share their work on the questions of undergrounds and ambiances – built, experienced and lived by humans – by highlighting case studies, in-situexperiences and new methodological tools. This call is organised around three, non-exclusive thematic lines open for articles from urban studies, architecture, engineering, humanities and social sciences.

    The social dimensions of cognitive cartography

    Cartotête fourth study day

    Cognitive representations of geographical space are often studied in order to better understand how individuals perceive and deal with everyday spatial problems (Down and Stea, 1977), including orientation, trip planning or navigation. Since these works focus particularly on the functional dimension of such spatial representations, maps are read in a literal, rather than metaphorical perspective. In addition, individual geographical experiences, both direct (trips and visited places) or indirect (spatial information) is considered as the main factor contributing to their construction. Therefore, this “cognitive tool” is essentially considered as an individual and personal construction.

    Delinquency, crimes and repression in History

    The question of delinquency, in the most general sense of the term, is particularly complex because criminologists, sociologists, psychologists, psychoanalysts, doctors, lawyers, and historians who have studied this subject extensively have often expressed very different and even contradictory opinions. Difficulties arise as soon as the phenomenon is to be defined. In French law, the word “delinquency” designates all types of offenses. These fall into three categories: transgressions; which constitute very light offenses, crimes which are at an intermediate level, and crimes among including murders, non-premeditated voluntary homicides, and the assassinations, premeditated voluntary homicides. In recent years, in many countries, rape has entered this category of crimes. The Arabic language differentiates between delinquency (“inhiraf”) which designates minor crimes and the crime (“jarima”) which applies to the most serious crimes and offenses.

    Mental maps: methodologies for approaching socio-spatial representations

    3rd Cartotête study day

    Les disciplines scientifiques se référant à la carte mentale sont toujours plus nombreuses et les méthodes de recueil de plus en plus variées, entremêlant souvent des modes hybrides entre la représentation mentale ou cognitive, liée à la représentation sociale et à l'imaginaire collectif, le parcours commenté, le dessin réflexif, le jeu, l’enquête visuelle, les cartes collectives... Dans ces représentations spatiales, l’espace est un cadre – géographique, certes, mais également un espace social, de pratiques, psychologique, cognitif, politique, artistique, identitaire, symbolique, etc. L’idée est de savoir si l’on peut changer la dimension – ainsi que le support – de la carte mentale (2D, 3D, utilisation de drône, réalité augmentée, etc. ?).

    « Métro, boulot, dodo », quoi de neuf dans nos routines ?

    Ce colloque porte sur les enjeux spatio-temporels des routines de la mobilité quotidienne. Derrière le terme péjoratif de « routine », relativement peu abordé dans les recherches en sciences sociales, se cache une dimension potentiellement structurante dans les arbitrages individuels quotidiens de la mobilité et des programmes d'activités. Ainsi, il s'agit d'interroger l'émergence, la nature et l'évolution des déplacements routiniers. Ce colloque est envisagé comme une rencontre interdisciplinaire visant à faire dialoguer sociologues, géographes, démographes, psychologues, économistes, aménageurs, urbanistes et ingénieurs des transports en présence d'acteurs encharge des territoires et de la mise en oeuvre de la politique publique.
