University of Lausanne, 14-15 September 2023
The central theme for the 2023 conference considers gender as it relates to the notion of work, from the organization of gender difference and hierarchy in the professional world, to more generally the work of reproducing – but also contesting – gender relations at the level of discourse, practice, and organizational and institutional structures. This call for submissions is thus organized around two major thematic axes that welcome diverse interventions on the theme of Gender(ed) labor.

Le rapport de l’ethnographe aux matériaux empiriques. Perspectives subjectives, disciplinaires et politiques
Université de Lausanne, 8 et 9 juin 2023
La présente édition des ALE a pour but de mettre la question des données ethnographiques au centre des discussions. Il s’agira, à travers des retours réflexifs, de se réapproprier la question des matériaux empiriques, et plus particulièrement de leur nature, rôle et statut, afin de mieux en délimiter les formes et les frontières dans un contexte de standardisation accru des pratiques de recherche et, plus particulièrement, en matière de gestion des données.
