CONS 12 VOLS 18+
WORK: The volunteers will construct a large picnic hut at a nature school in the woods of Aabenraa. The picnic hut will become a place where local youth can meet and enjoy themselves and do various activities close to nature, and even stay overnight. Free time activities could include: Kayaking, seal watching safari, and a visit to a pre-historic Viking centre, visit to Graasten Castle, plus a one-day trip to the
island of Aeroe, which is the site of the world’s largest solar cell energy facility. There will also be time for visits to private Danish homes and shopping in nearby cities.

MS03 VINGSTED IRON AGE VEJLE 08/07–22/07
ARCH/CONS 13 VOLS 18+
WORK: The Vingsted Historical Workshop is a culture activity and teaching centre owned and run the county of Vejle. Vingsted Historical Workshop is divided into two sections – The Iron Age environment and Vingsted Mill, an old restored mill farm. Both are situated in beautiful scenic surroundings. Through the past 27 years a number of houses have been erected in the iron-age environment. Here school classes come to spend a few days living and working like people would have done during the
Iron Age. The Vingsted Mill contains workshops for old crafts like blacksmith, wood, textiles and pottery. The Mill is hosting a range of teaching activities. All activities of the workcamp will take part in the Iron Age environment, where workcamps in 2004 and 2005 have started the reconstruction of a manor farm consisting of 3 great long houses. The workshop will supply the necessary tools and instruction on how to use them and how to do the work. The concrete work projects will be: 1) Furnishing and decorating the living rooms and the gathering/ceremonial room. 2) Making clay walls. 3) Cutting wood for the pillars in the construction. The 3 work projects can be fitted to the participants’ technical skills, physical condition and stamina.

MS04 FAIR TRADE FESTIVAL ROENNE 09/07-23/07
STUDY/FEST 12 VOLS 18+
WORK: Practical assistance with the events (concerts etc.) at a Fair Trade estival at Bornholm, Denmark. The festival started in 2005 and was a major success. Several Danish and foreign world music and rock bands performed, and large sales of fair trade products from esp. Africa were carried out. The camp will contain a major study part about issues of fair trade and trade policies, global justice and the role of labor unions in creating the Danish welfare state, also since the sponsor of
the camp is the large Danish labor union 3F There will be visits to companies, meetings with labor unions and politicians

MS05 NAESBY IRON AGE ODENSE 23/07-05/08
ARCH/CONS 18 VOLS 18+
WORK: The iron-age village is a historical workshop, with reconstructed houses and environment, where schoolchildren come to try their hands at iron-age crafts and to experience what everyday life was like 2000 years ago. We will create a courtyard surrounding the recently constructed smithy, by building fences of intertwined branches. We will also renovate the reconstructed sacrificial place of the village to make it even more historically correct. When possible we will use tools in keeping with the iron-ages. The work will take place under skilled supervision.

MS06 VESTPARK FESTIVAL LANGAA 25/07–
08/08 FEST 10 VOLS 18+
WORK: The Vestpark Festival is a small, non profit, 3 day music festival that takes place every year in the little town Langaa. The music is rock, folk and jazz. Normally there is also a play for the smallest children. During the 3 days 5-600 people visit the festival. This workcamp is organized in cooperation with the group of local volunteers who are organizing the festival. Volunteers will work together with the festival people on preparing the festival area, setting up fences and tents, podium etc. During the festival they will take part in cooking, selling
tickets, helping the bands, cleaning etc. and cleaning and storing the equipment after the festival. During the 3-day festival, working hours will be long. The other working days the work will be 3-4 hours, and there will be various social events, such as tours to see the surroundings, nearby cities and museums; a football match (Team the World vs. Langaa) and canoeing trips.

MS01 TINGBJERG KIDS COPENHAGEN
23/06-07/07 KIDS/SOCI 8 VOLS 18+
WORK: Many of the residents in the Tingbjerg-Utterslevhuse area are children (33%) with a non-Danish cultural background (Somalia, Iraq, Pakistan, Yugoslavia, Morocco, and Lebanon). Most of the children come from families with unemployed parents that speak poor Danish. These families have no network and very little connection to Danish society in general. The children do not belong to a peer-group and drift around, especially during the summer vacation. They miss the opportunities to join
networks and groups that could create the references they need to really become integrated in the community. We think that the ethnic diversity is a resource and we want to highlight that in this project. The aim is to give the children shared experiences and insight into games, music, food and movement from different cultures. To give the participants an opportunity to discover what they have in common and how they are different through working together and to form a network outside school. Furthermore, many of these children desperately need positive
interaction with adults. They need to experience that grown-ups can be there for them. We don't expect their lives to change overnight, but we do expect them to get a more nuanced picture of grown-ups. After the last two years of summer activities, we have experienced closer contact and the children have been more open to taking part in different activities.

MS02 AABENRAA PICNIC HUT AABENRAA 24/06- 08/07

Summer School "The Quest for European Values" Vama Veche 20-26 August 2006

The Luxembourg Institute for European and International Studies is a forum of intellectual discussions and research as well as a platform of training and upgrading for undergraduates and young professionals from both western and eastern countries.

One of the Institute’s constant themes of research and debate has been the European integration viewed as a particularly dynamic and challenging process. The topic has been explored for the last 12 years under the form of summer schools organized by the Institute in cooperation with the Black Sea University Foundation and later on with the European Cultural Centre, Bucharest at Mangalia and Vama Veche in Romania.

The 2006 seminar looks into the question whether there are, can and should be common values for the upcoming Europe, i.e. the European Union and beyond. Should the Europeans strive for a common ethos giving the continent a genuine impetus in its political, economic and social endeavours? How far will these values be different from those in other places of the world and how far will they be compatible with those? To what degree is the past of any guidance? Is it wise to have such a debate on values or might such an effort even prove counterproductive in the longer term? How far can a value debate contribute to the shaping of a common identity and thus also to the definition of a possible future role for Europe in the international system?

Organized by the:

Luxembourg Institute for
European and International Studies
Black Sea University Foundation
European Cultural Centre, Bucharest

Application deadline 10 iulie

Europeen School Marseille, "Motor Disabilities: Posture and Movement Analysis, Rehabilitation, Neurophysiology"

July 3 - July 13, 2006

Why do we need a European School on posture and movement analysis ?

This subject is one of the major priorities for Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (PRM). The European Board of PRM has supported the project of the Université de la Méditerranée, Marseilles in the organisation of this teaching programme.

Why should PRM doctors study posture and movement ?

There has been a drammatic increase in the number of peoples with motor disabilities.
New tools and methods to quantify posture and movement have been developing over recent years. Knowledge of these new tools and methods is indispensable in analysing problems of standing, walking, reaching and grasping, in order to prescribe and evaluate rehabilitation programmes, orthotics and prosthetics, functional surgery in peoples with motor Disabilities.

Who is involved in the European School Marseilles and who are the members of the organising committee?

Alain Delarque professor of PRM is lead of the European School Marseilles. The organising committee is composed of clinicians and scientists : professors André Bardot and Jean-Michel Viton, Serges Mesure, Laurent Bensoussan, Reinoud Bootsma and Michel Lacour.

What’s the teaching programme about?

The European School Marseilles will highlight the latest advances in physiology of posture and movement, will review new tools and new methods in laboratory and clinical evaluation of posture and movement and ambulatory monitoring of mobility. Modellisation and simulation of movement will also be included and clinicians will cover the results of posture and movement evaluation in peoples with motor disabilities.

Why is the teaching programme in English?

Because international journals and events use English as the common language, it is essential to know technical English. The European School Marseilles will allow you to enrich your vocabulary on posture and movement. Every effort will be made to make lectures easily understood. Students will receive abstracts before each session and key words will be explained. Lecturers will speak slowly and will be willing to go over points during their lecture.

Who is the teaching programme for ?

European School Marseilles is for trainees in PRM. If registered with the European Board of PRM (http://univweb.pharoweb.univ-mrs.fr/PRM/), registration fees will be waived. Those living outside France (in a limited number) will not have to pay accommodation.

The European School Marseilles is also for established specialists in PRM, with special rates for Board certified doctors.

Will there be an examination?

Yes for those who wish to take one. On passing, they will receive a certificate.

A certificate for regular attendance will be given to all others to satisfy continuing education requirements.

CfP: The Late Ottoman Port Cities and Their Inhabitants

8th Mediterranean Research Meeting
Florence and Montecatini Terme, European University Institute
March 21-25, 2007

Workshop 7:
The Late Ottoman Port Cities and Their Inhabitants:
Subjectivity, Urbanity, and Conflicting Orders

Dr. Malte Fuhrmann,
Center for Modern Oriental Studies
Kirchweg 33, 14129, Berlin, Germany

Dr. Vangelis Kechriotis,

History Department, Bogaziçi University

34342, Bebek, Istanbul, Turkey

Life on the shores of the Levant during the 'Age of Imperialism' has often been described, both in contemporary and historiographic assessments, as an exceptional experience. Accordingly, within the past twenty years, the Mediterranean port cities under Ottoman sovereignty have been thoroughly researched and debated. Several approaches have been employed, with deviating results. Initially, port cities drew attention because of their pivotal position in the region's economy, supposedly linking them to the 'world economy'. This interpretation was challenged for various reasons, among others, because some scholars did not see the cities under discussion as sites oriented primarily towards European or global economic activities, but as the foremost centers of the Empire, indeed as privileged sites for the consolidation of Ottoman imperial hegemony. Another strain of research dismissed both the stress on multi-national networks and on the degree of integration into the state, focusing
instead on the role citizens took on in local institutions. Some of these studies even went so far as to pronounce the Levantine port cities 'models of conviviality'. These interpretations in turn received criticism on the grounds that they supposedly did not take into account the nationalist and communalist practices so prevalent in the 19th century, and that port cities were no exception. However, studies focussing
primarily on the role of individuals and less on institutions have shown that city residents could navigate their social and political relations fairly untouched by state identity politics. Is there a way to meaningfully engage in a dialogue between these varied approaches that does not lead to the dead-end of simply valuing one perspective over another?

This workshop intends to use the kaleidoscope of seemingly contradictory interpretations of the late Ottoman port cities as a point of departure to open the ground for a debate which will hopefully lead to a better insight of 19th century Eastern Mediterranean urbanity. Rather than debating which discourse was predominant, we raise the question of how groups and individuals navigated between them, and made their choices utilizing a range of possibilities. It is our thesis that the competing orders did not produce neatly divided camps among the cities'
populations, but rather a terrain permitting or even demanding individual interpretation and amendment. The panel aspires to bring together researchers who will present their work on port cities which were under Ottoman sovereignty for all or part of the period 1850-1922. Case studies might focus on socially or culturally defined groups within each city. Groups which have not been thoroughly studied as yet are of particular interest. But rather than just presenting micro-histories focusing on particular social practices, papers will be expected to demonstrate how these groups developed their respective varieties of urbanity in a social arena
dominated by discourses on citizenship, civilization and the Empire. Could they relate these constructs to their perceptions of the city and integrate them into their practices? Or did they form negative images of the 'other' which would allow them to strengthen their own group cohesion? And how did such perceptions and reactions change over time? By raising these questions, we believe that we can build upon a historiographical tradition in order to successfully compare urban experiences between far flung locations, various social strata, and cultural as well as ethno-religious groups and reconstruct the common political and cultural space of the late Ottoman Mediterranean urbanity which makes all these experiences meaningful.

Appel à projets: Sécurité et Informatique

La sécurité des informations a été, est et restera un élément fondamental lié à toute activité humaine. Toutefois la situation est aujourd'hui profondément différente de celle du passé en raison de l'informatisation de vastes pans des activités humaines.

L’appel à propositions vise à renforcer les recherches en Sécurité et Informatique en sollicitant des projets originaux et ambitieux sur toutes les questions de sécurité informatique et des systèmes d'information, de vulnérabilité, de sûreté, de fiabilité, de disponibilité, qui se posent avec une importance cruciale, que ce soit dans des domaines économiques, écologiques, juridiques, médicaux, militaires ou policiers. Ces questions concernent aussi bien les aspects de souveraineté nationale que les libertés individuelles et sont souvent complexifiées par leur caractère distribué, ouvert, mobile ou ubiquitaire. Enfin, une caractéristique fondamentale des questions sécuritaires posées par l'informatisation globale est la transversalité des disciplines concernées. L’appel encourage donc la proposition de tout projet novateur sur le thème sécurité et informatique en soulignant qu'il concerne également les communautés scientifiques en droit, électronique, optique, automatique et traitement du signal.

Dans le prolongement de l’action de recherche amont SSIA (en 2005) et des ACI concernant la sécurité (de 1999 à 2004), cet appel à projet vise ainsi à développer une recherche fondamentale proposée par toute équipe de recherche, académique ou non.

Compte tenu de ce positionnement stratégique, les champs thématiques pour 2006 sont les suivants :

Sécurité des systèmes d’information
Sûreté des systèmes informatisés
Justification de la confiance
Informatique sécuritaire et société

- Date limite de soumission des dossiers : 15 juin 2006 à 12h00

Appels à projets: Concepts systèmes et outils pour la sécurité globale

Assurer la sécurité des biens et des personnes dans un espace de liberté et de justice, tel est l’objectif de la stratégie européenne de sécurité adoptée par le Conseil Européen. En cohérence avec les objectifs de recherche en sécurité du prochain programme cadre de l’U.E. (7ème PCRD), l’Agence Nationale de la Recherche lance un appel à projets de recherche en sécurité, qui aura pour ambition de faire avancer la connaissance sur un domaine par nature transverse et pluridisciplinaire.

L’approche pluridisciplinaire recouvre en particulier des travaux de nature collaborative permettant le rapprochement entre les sciences dites « dures » et les sciences humaines et sociales.

Les thèmes de cet appel à projets sont les suivants :

l’analyse des vulnérabilités des systèmes et les risques, leur définition et hiérarchisation ;

la gestion des alertes ;

les outils de modélisation, de simulation et d’aide à la décision ;

le traitement de l’information : la perception de la situation, la fusion des données, le traitement et l’exploitation ;

sécurité et société.
Le présent appel à projets vise à susciter une recherche scientifique et technologique de haut niveau, appelée à soutenir l’émergence d’une approche globale et systémique de la sécurité en favorisant les regroupements d’acteurs majeurs, académiques, industriels et d’utilisateurs finaux. Les projets attendus dans le cadre du présent appel à projet 2006, sont des projets de type « recherche industrielle » au sens de la définition de l’Union Européenne

PROBLEMS AND SUCCESS FACTORS IN BUSINESS:
PERPECTIVES FROM EMERGING MARKETS AND TRANSITION ECONOMIES III

In today's competitive global world, there are only two ways to survive and thrive: "Do something better or new". But realizing or accomplishing these two is not so easy considering today's global competitive business arena characterized by constant change and uncertainty. There are many roadblocks on the way of success. The business success for the companies located in emerging markets and transition economies is far more difficult to get because the companies in such countries have to deal with many problems in unstable economies. In addition to their relatively weak market positions compared to world's incumbent multinationals, companies in emerging markets and transition economies suffer from economic and political upheavals, improper policies in business, corruption, unsatisfactory financial and banking systems, immature institutional environments, etc. Thus, surviving or thriving in business for these companies requires handling with (i) the global competition and (ii) the local challenges inherent in emerging countries and transition economies.

The conference aims at providing an academic opportunity for those who want to contribute to business life prosperity in emerging markets and transition economies like the first one organized last year.

The conference welcomes submissions of academic scholars, government experts, and all contributors from international organizations, private institutions and companies .

The conference seeks papers dealing with problems and success factors in business in emerging markets and transition economies on the following subjects:

. Common business problems and success factors related to the specific business functions, e.g. R&D, procurement, production, management, finance, accounting, human resources, marketing, sales, distribution, customer service, etc.
. Business problems brought by transition in Newly Independent Countries (NICs)
. Social responsibilities of companies and their functions on solving problems like poverty, education, health, etc.
. Sound business strategies of the success
. Information technologies
. Opportunities and threats of internationalization & globalization
. Banking and financial system development
. Business ethics and its effect on business
. Corruption and Business: Advantage or Drawback?
. Relations between business and politics
. Integration challenges and their effects on business
. Entrepreneurial challenges
. Small business development practices
. Economic growth and its implications
. Development of institutional environment and its implications
. Organizational theory and structure challenges
. Foreign direct investment characteristics, etc.

All the papers presented at the conference will also be published in the conference proceedings.

Français Langue Etrangère (Université de la Rochelle)

Les cours du CUFLE sont organisés par la Faculté des Lettres, Langues, Arts et Sciences Humaines de l'Université de la Rochelle.

Les enseignants du CUFLE travaillent tous à l'université et sont expérimentés en Français Langue Etrangère. Ils utilisent une pédagogie moderne et variée et encouragent les étudiants à s'exprimer le plus souvent possible, à l'oral comme à l'écrit. Le faible effectif des groupes (17 maximum) permet à chacun d'être actif. La maturité des participants (18 ans minimum) permet de travailler avec des textes et supports audiovisuels sur des thèmes de société, et en rapport avec le monde du travail.

Les cours de l'après-midi sont plus spécialisés : une fois par semaine une conférence est donnée par un professeur de l'université de La Rochelle. Ce cours de niveau universitaire, mais adapté au public étranger, apporte aux étudiants une ouverture culturelle privilégiée, et leur permet de se préparer à d'éventuelles études dans une université française.

Les professeurs proposent en plus du travail écrit, à faire chaque soir.
Des outils pédagogiques efficaces sont à la disposition des enseignants; par exemple ce laboratoire de langue multimédia. En dehors des heures de cours, les étudiants qui le souhaitent peuvent continuer à travailler en "libre-service" au Centre de Ressources Multimédia, qui leur est réservé, et profiter des cassettes audio, vidéo, des CD-ROM et de l'accès libre à Internet.

University of Cambridge International Summer Schools

Summer programmes were established at the University of Cambridge in 1923 with a view to widening participation in education. Now the Summer Schools regularly welcome around 1000 students from approximately 55 countries worldwide. Anyone over the age of 18 before the Summer School begins and fluent in English are welcome to attend these programmes. Many participants are undergraduate or graduate students, who are able to gain credit towards their studies at their home institutions. Others are teachers, faculty members or academics seeking to refresh and develop their own knowledge. Other participants, representing a broad range of professions and interests, are simply taking the opportunity to broaden their horizons and exercise their minds. Some see the Summer Schools as a useful prelude - or affordable alternative - to longer-term study abroad. Whatever your reasons for attending you will be sure to experience a challenging and fulfilling summer in Cambridge.

Every year the University of Cambridge provides two interdisciplinary International Summer Schools (Term I and Term II) alongside 4 separate special subject Summer Schools focusing on Art History, Literature, from Shakespeare to the present day, History, medieval to modern and Science as well as a programme in English Legal Methods.

Second International Seville Seminar on Future-Oriented Technology Analysis (Sevilla, Spain)

(FTA), 28th- 29th September 2006

Introduction
Building on the success of the joint EU-US Seminar on Future-Oriented Technology Analysis (FTA) in 2004, a second event is being organised for the sharing of ideas and experiences among FTA experts, practitioners, and decision-makers.

The 2006 Seminar will focus upon the “impact of FTA approaches on policy and decision-making” and will place emphasis on the delivery of concrete and valued policy outcomes and impacts from FTA activities.


The seminar intends to enlarge the geographical base of participants from that of the previous seminar. Academics, practitioners and public and private sector decision makers from Europe, North America, Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Australasia are therefore invited to broaden the network and to increase understanding of advances in the field of FTA.

The FTA acronym refers to strategic foresight, forecasting and technology assessment. The Seminar’s target audience includes:

The public sector,
Participants with an interest in business and other non-governmental FTA activities, and
Those active in areas where FTA tools and approaches have been newly-applied. The Seminar organisers are particularly interested in receiving abstracts concerning FTA adaptations to decision-making contexts in developing countries.
The Seminar will cover two full days, during which time, papers and multimedia e-posters will be presented. This announcement includes a call for paper and e-poster abstracts within four relevant themes, the details of which can be found in this web site.

The Seminar will also involve considerable “workshop” activity. In particular, specific issue-oriented working groups will meet and report back on recommendations to advance the FTA community and its processes.

Theme of the Conference

There is a major concern that we should increase our knowledge of the effect of the environment on health Epidemiological studies suggest that numerous diseases are associated with noise, non-ionizing and ionizing radiations, airbone particles from industry and transport, dioxins, PCB, pesticides, endocrine disruptors and many other physical, chemical and biological pollutants. Toxicology and environmental medicine are necessary to provide causal evidences and to evaluate the hazards posed by these pollutants. The aim of this conference is to investigate the molecular mechanisms of health problems which are suspected to be triggered by environmental factors. They include cancers, allergies, auto immune and degenerative diseases, aging, effects on fertility and reproduction as well as effects on the nervous system. We hope to bring researchers up to date on the mechanisms of the effects of these environmental factors at both cellular and molecular levels as well as on the whole organism.

Main topics to be discussed will include :

A. Xenobiotics, signalling and biotransformation
B. Oxidative stress and environmental pollution
C. Environment, genome repair and cancer
D. Inflammation and immunotoxicology
E. Environment and ageing
F. Endocrine disruptors
G. Emerging risks

Abstracts can be submitted as an attached document in an email message to mrem@paris7.jussieu.fr

The deadline for receipt of abstracts is June 15, 2006.

Abstracts will be selected for short presentations. Other abstracts can be accepted for poster presentation

Première conférence internationale de RESUP

1. Présentation du RESUP
Le RESUP est un réseau de laboratoires de recherche créé en octobre 2001 avec le soutien du Ministère de la recherche. Il a pour but de fédérer et de susciter la recherche en sociologie, sciences politiques, sciences de l’éducation et économie dans le domaine de l’enseignement supérieur.

La direction du réseau est assurée par Georges Felouzis (professeur à l’université de Bordeaux 2, LAPSAC) avec un conseil scientifique composé de Thierry Chevaillier (professeur à l’université de Dijon, IREDU-CNRS), Marie-Françoise Fave-Bonnet (professeure à l’Université de Paris X Nanterre, CREF), Daniel Filâtre (professeur à l’Université de Toulouse le Mirail, CERTOP-CNRS) et Christine Musselin (directrice de recherche au CSOCNRS).

Depuis l’organisation du colloque de Bordeaux « L’enseignement supérieur en questions » des 16 et 17 mai 2002 (Université de Bordeaux II, LAPSAC), le RESUP est à l’initiative des journées d’études du 7 mars 2002 à l’Université Paris X Nanterre (CREF) sur les enseignantschercheurs, de la journée « jeunes chercheurs » du 19 septembre 2003 à Dijon (Université de Bourgogne, IREDU), des journées d’études des 3 et 4 juin 2004 sur « les figures territoriales de l’Université » (Toulouse Le Mirail, CERTOP - CIRUS/CERS)de la journée d’études du 4 février 2005 à l’Université Paris X Nanterre (CREF) sur l’offre de formation, de la journée d’études « Recherche universitaire et entreprises » à Sciences Po Paris, de la journée « jeunes chercheurs » du 16 septembre 2005 à Dijon (Université de Bourgogne, IREDU). Le prochain colloque « Regards croisés sur la question étudiante » aura lieu les 8 et 9 juin 2006 à Bordeaux..

D’autres informations (actes, annuaire des chercheurs, actualités, etc.) sont disponibles sur le site du RESUP : http://www.resup.u-bordeaux2.fr/
2. Appel à communication Le monde universitaire a toujours été traversé par des compétitions et de la concurrence, mais ces phénomènes sont aujourd’hui plus accentués, mais aussi plus visibles et plus sensibles. Cela est lié notamment à la raréfaction des financements publics étatiques, à la stagnation, voire à la décroissance, des publics étudiants traditionnels, ou au nombre élevé de candidats à
une carrière scientifique qui ne trouvent pas les emplois auxquels ils aspiraient.
Mais plus que la course aux moyens, c’est aussi la transformation des dispositifs d’allocation et de gestion des ressources qui participe de cette dynamique. Le recours crois sant à des mécanismes incitatifs, à l’évaluation des résultats obtenus plutôt qu’à celle des objectifs et des projets, à l’exigence de rendre des comptes, à la fixation et au respect d’échéances imposées par des acteurs extérieurs à la communauté universitaire, au suivi analytique des recettes et des dépenses, etc. modifie le contenu de l’activité des universitaires et des chercheurs comme la nature des contraintes qui pèsent sur eux : autrefois essentiellement réglementaires et bureaucratiques, elles sont aujourd’hui plus comptables et économiques. Ces deux premiers facteurs ne sont sans doute pas sans lien avec la requalification (certes
controversée) à laquelle sont soumis les « produits » de l’enseignement supérieur et de la recherche. Alors qu’ils étaient jusqu’à très récemment regardés essentiellement comme des biens publics, cette caractérisation est actuellement remise en cause. Certains considèrent – en particulier du côté des économistes, mais ces arguments se retrouvent également dans les politiques publiques de certains pays – que les avantages apportés par l'enseignement supérieur à la collectivité sont faibles par rapport à ceux qu'il procure aux individus qui en bénéficient, ce qui justifie alors selon les tenants de ces thèses, l’abandon de la gratuité de
l’enseignement supérieur et de la prise en charge intégrale de ses coûts par les autorités publiques. L’importance accordée aux liens entre recherche et innovation comme moteurs de la croissance économique conduit par ailleurs à protéger l’accès à la connaissance par des droits de propriété intellectuelle (licence, brevets, etc.) qui génèrent des revenus à ceux qui en sont à l’origine (ou à leur institution) et qui encouragent leur exploitation industrielle en limitant leur accessibilité. Bref, enseignements et résultats scientifiques sont plus souvent que par le passé considérés comme des biens privés auxquels peut être attribuée une valeur
marchande.

Enfin, les espaces de référence pertinents des systèmes d’enseignement supérieur et de recherche se sont étendus et multipliés. Alors que le 19ème et une bonne partie du 20ème siècle ont abouti à la constitution de systèmes nationaux ayant chacun des caractéristiques propres, le passage au 21ème siècle est marqué dans de nombreux pays, et notamment ceux qui avaient une forte tradition universitaire nationale, par la prise de conscience d’une certaine inadéquation du territoire national comme espace de référence et de pilotage de ce secteur. Derrière cela se profilent non seulement une intensification des échanges entre chercheurs/universitaires de différents pays, échanges qui ont une longue antériorité, mais aussi une modification de leur espace privilégié de coopération (les collègues partenaires des
projets de recherche ne sont plus seulement ceux du territoire national, mais aussi, voire surtout, ceux des pays voisins), une reconfiguration de leur espace « naturel » de recrutement des étudiants (pour l’étendre par exemple à l’ensemble des pays signataires du processus de Bologne, ou bien, au contraire, pour le recentrer sur le territoire et les besoins locaux), une évolution de l’espace de diffusion de leurs travaux scientifiques vers des langues et des revues étrangères, une extension de l’espace de référence pour le déroulement des carrières (pour qu’il ne soit plus seulement celui de l’établissement où l’on a fait sa thèse, mais dépasse les
frontières)… Il n’y a donc pas substitution d’un territoire pertinent à un autre, mais plutôt multiplication pour l’ensemble des universitaires/chercheurs (et pas seulement pour une petite élite) des espaces pertinents qui peuvent ainsi être locaux, régionaux, nationaux, européen ou supranationaux. Les lieux où se déroulent les mises en concurrence, le volume et la nature des ressources disponibles, les caractéristiques des dispositifs d’allocation et de gestion de ces dernières, la
requalification de l’enseignement supérieur et de la recherche, sont autant de facteurs révélateurs de la transformation de la forme et du contenu de la compétition au sein et entre les systèmes d’enseignement supérieur et de recherche : d’essentiellement scientifique et liée en priorité à des formes de reconnaissance symbolique et réputationnelle, elle devient également marchande et de plus en plus indissociable de processus de valorisation, y compris monétaire. Ces différentes évolutions, qui touchent inégalement les systèmes universitaires et certains
secteurs au sein de ceux-ci, justifient par conséquent de s’interroger sur « Les universités et leurs marchés » et cette thématique sera au coeur de la conférence internationale qu’organise le RESUP pour célébrer son cinquième anniversaire, à Sciences Po les 1er, 2 et 3 février 2007.

A cette occasion, il s’agira aussi bien de rendre compte des transformations qui se sont produites ou qui sont en cours, que d’analyser leurs conséquences effectives. Pour cette raison, des communications portant sur plusieurs pays ou bien comparant les évolutions à l’oeuvre dans les systèmes d’enseignement supérieur et de recherche avec celles qui se produisent dans d’autres secteurs seront particulièrement bienvenues. Nous donnerons donc la priorité aux textes qui proposent des analyses plutôt que des jugements, qui s’appuient sur des faits étayés empiriquement plutôt que sur des anticipations ou des prises de position.

Plus précisément, des contributions sont sollicitées sur les quatre thématiques qui suivent.

1. Le marché des ressources, ou la transformation des modes de financement de la recherche et de l’enseignement universitaires Le financement de la recherche et de l’enseignement universitaires a connu deux grandes évolutions dans la plupart des pays développés : d’une part une diversification des sources de financements et d’autre part une transformation des modalités d’allocation et de gestion.

Concernant la diversification des sources de financement, les questions suivantes pourront être abordées : comment les autorités publiques ont-elles mené cette politique dans ce sens ? Avec quel degré de réussite selon les pays et le type d’actions publiques qui a été ms en oeuvre ? Quelle a été l’incidence au niveau de la composition des budgets des établissements ou des équipes de recherche ? La diversification a-t-elle modifié le rapport entre financements publics et privés ? Quels sont les mécanismes qui permettent de monter un projet de recherche dans cette nouvelle configuration et ont-ils été amenés à évoluer avec la multiplication des
sources de financement ?

Les nouvelles modalités d’allocation et de gestion des ressources prennent diverses formes. Plusieurs pays (notamment la France et la Suisse) ont introduit des procédures contractuelles entre les établissements et leurs différents partenaires. D’autres ont accordé une plus grande maîtrise de la gestion de leurs ressources/dépenses aux universités en globalisant les budgets. Dans de nombreux cas, l’attribution de tout ou partie des financements se fait en fonction des
résultats : primes aux doctorats soutenus aux Pays-Bas, crédits de recherche en fonction des performances scientifiques établies par le Research Assessment Exercise en Grande Bretagne, etc. Enfin, on observe aussi une dévolution des budgets soumise à conditions, entre les financeurs publics et les établissements, mais aussi au sein des établissements : le budget de fonctionnement des unités n’est ainsi abondé que si elle s’engage à assurer certains enseignements ou certaines activités de service, etc. En France, la récente réforme des procédures budgétaires de l'État, emprunte à plusieurs de ces mécanismes et devrait à terme entraîner des modifications assez importantes dans la gestion des établissements publics et dans l’établissement de leurs budgets.

L’enseignement supérieur et la recherche constituent par conséquent des terrains de recherche privilégiés pour analyser ces instruments et dispositifs. On peut notamment étudier comment ils ont été conçus et ce qui a motivé leur introduction mais aussi s’interroger sur leurs effets attendus et inattendus et sur la manière dont ils reconfigurent ou non les stratégies et comportements des acteurs. Ce pilotage par les outils de management n’étant par ailleurs pas propres à l’enseignement supérieur et à la recherche, une comparaison de leurs effets sur
différents secteurs apporterait un éclairage stimulant.

2. Le marché des universitaires : d’un marché de professionnels à un marché de
« travailleurs » universitaires ? Cette deuxième thématique est consacrée aux transformations qui affectent les marchés du travail universitaire, les relations d’emploi et l’organisation du travail scientifique ou pédagogique, et à leurs conséquences.

Pour ce qui concerne l’activité des universitaires, les évolutions récentes ont souvent modifié leur environnement de travail. On peut par conséquent se demander quels effets cela a eu sur le contenu de leurs activités, la conception qu’ils en ont, leurs identités professionnelles etc. Par exemple, gardent-ils la maîtrise de leur agenda de travail et restent-ils maîtres de la répartition de leur temps de travail entre les différentes activités ? Quelles incidences quantitatives et qualitatives ont l’accentuation du contrôle de leurs tâches et l’intensification
de l’évaluation de leur performance d’enseignement ou de recherche sur leur production ? Comment vivent-ils le renforcement de l’autonomie des établissements et la « hiérarchisation » des relations avec les responsables universitaires élus ? Dans ce contexte, comment évolue le lien entre enseignement et recherche ?
Une deuxième entrée sur ces questions est offerte par les établissements eux-mêmes et
consiste à s’intéresser à la manière dont ils investissent un domaine souvent nouveau pour eux : la gestion des postes et des personnes. Quelle incidence cela a-t-il sur les décisions de redistributions internes de postes ? Sur le profilage des postes et le recrutement des futurs collègues ? Sur la nature de la relation qui lie les universitaires à leur établissement ? Sur la représentation qu’ont les enseignants-chercheurs de leur travail ? Cela conduit-il à des rapprochements ou à des convergences entre des situations nationales ? Enfin, on pourra s’interroger sur les marchés du travail universitaire d’un double point de vue.

D’une part, celui de leur diversification et de la remise en cause d’un déroulement de carrière unique et « linéaire » au profit de cheminements plus variés et plus nomades. D’autre part, celui de leur rôle comme instrument de différenciation au sein de la profession universitaire. Observe-t-on une évolution des critères qui sont mobilisés lors des décisions de recrutement ou de promotions ? Devient-il plus fréquent de considérer que l’excellence scientifique ne peut être uniquement rémunérée en reconnaissance et en prestige mais qu’elle doit s’accompagner de revenus et autres gratifications qui la reflètent et qui distinguent les
« meilleurs » ? Dans quelle mesure les marchés du travail universitaires sont-ils les opérateurs de cette valorisation de l’activité universitaire ? D’une manière plus générale, c’est la singularité des activités universitaires et scientifiques
qui est à questionner et notamment la réduction de la distance entre elles et les autres activités salariées à l’heure où celles-ci connaissent également de profondes mutations.

3. Le marché des étudiants : des héritiers aux clients ? La transformation des publics étudiants est largement documentée et constitue l’une des composantes cruciales que doivent intégrer les établissements. Mais il en est d’autres qu’il est
moins fréquent de traiter et que cette thématique devrait permettre d’aborder.
La première concerne la transformation de la place reconnue aux étudiants dans les
établissements d’enseignement supérieur. De simples usagers, les mouvements contestataires des années 60 leur ont souvent permis (avec le succès mitigé que l’on connaît) de participer au fonctionnement de leurs institutions. Quitte à amplifier le phénomène, une autre étape semble se dessiner et les étudiants tendent de plus en plus à devenir des clients que l’on cherche à attirer, à satisfaire, mais aussi parfois à faire payer. Dans cette perspective, l’acquisition de connaissances, n’est plus le seul « produit » qui est délivré : ils doivent aussi pouvoir trouver un emploi, répondre aux besoins du marché du travail, et être traités de manière plus individualisée. Quelles sont les conséquences de ces tendances, qui existent à
des degrés très divers d’un pays à un autre et parfois d’un secteur à un autre dans un même pays ? Comment cela affecte-t-il la relation entre étudiants et enseignants ? Dans quelle mesure la constitution de l’offre de formation est-elle affectée et comment ? La seconde porte sur la tendance croissante à l’introduction de droits de scolarité et à l’augmentation de leur montant. Parmi les nombreux arguments développés en faveur de cette évolution, on trouve celui de l’inefficacité de la gratuité ou de la quasi-gratuité à démocratiser l’accès aux formations les plus prestigieuses, comme le démontre avec force la composition sociale des grandes écoles publiques françaises. Mais que sait-on des effets des droits d’inscription sur l’accès à l’enseignement supérieur ? Les mesures privilégiées (bourses au
mérite ou sur critères sociaux, emprunts à taux préférentiels etc.) en faveur des populations défavorisées ont elles un impact sur la composition sociale des étudiants, sur le choix des cursus suivis ? Y a-t-il des effets de seuil à partir desquels des effets pervers sont observables ?

4. Les universités, acteurs du marché : entre benchmarking, rating et ranking…
L’une des conséquences de l’intensification de la compétition et la pression aux résultats plus forte qui s’exercent sur l’enseignement supérieur et la recherche d’un côté, et de la multiplication et de l’extension des espaces de référence de l’autre, est la production de données visant à évaluer les résultats mais aussi à les comparer entre eux. Différents acteurs ont acquis une visibilité nouvelle à cette occasion.

D’une part, les organismes supranationaux (et notamment l’OCDE ou l’Unesco) qui ont
retenu un certain nombre d’indicateurs et développé des catégories permettant la comparaison et qui produisent des données sur un grand nombre de pays. Celles-ci permettent de situer chacun d’entre eux par rapport aux autres sur un certain nombre de dimensions mais encouragent aussi ces derniers à pratiquer du benchmarking, c’est-à-dire à repérer, échanger et introduire les meilleures pratiques.

D’autre part, des agences privées (EQUIS ou l’AACSB par exemple) ou publiques (le QAA
en Grande Bretagne) ont vu le jour ou bien ont renforcé leurs activités et conduisent des processus d’évaluation disciplinaire ou institutionnelle qui visent à assurer le respect d’un minimum de qualité (minimum qui peut par ailleurs être élevé et difficile à atteindre). Il s’agit alors plus de délivrer des « labels » que de classer. D’autres encore (comme la future agence d’évaluation française, le CNE, le RAE en Grande Bretagne…) sont responsables de la réalisation d’évaluations des résultats individuels ou institutionnels qui permettent d’appuyer ou de légitimer les décisions prises par les autorités publiques (ou les financeurs privés quand les résultats de ces évaluations sont rendus publics) en matière d’attribution de ressources ou de gestion des carrières.

Enfin, on a vu se multiplier les producteurs de classements, au niveau national ou sur un secteur particulier, et plus récemment, au niveau international (avec le fameux classement de Shanghai). La sophistication des méthodes utilisées varie beaucoup d’un classement à l’autre ainsi que les méthodes elles-mêmes, mais ces outils sont généralement destinés au grand public (mais ne sont pas mobilisés que par lui) afin de lui permettre de s’y retrouver sur le grand marché de l’offre d’enseignement et de recherche.

La multiplication des outils, des méthodes et des indicateurs pose par conséquent la question de leur élaboration (comment sont-ils choisis, développés et introduits, comment deviennentils légitimes ou non, quels objectifs servent-ils, qui sont les acteurs qui les imposent et ceux qui les critiquent…). Mais elle pose également celle de leur utilisation (qui s’empare de ces données, classements, etc. et à quelles fins ?) et donc de leurs effets. Ces derniers doivent être envisagés à plusieurs niveaux.

Tout d’abord on peut se demander si ces pratiques ont des effets de normalisation et si elles tendent à standardiser les pratiques des établissements ou les orientations prises par les autorités publiques, en imposant et en généralisant des cadres cognitifs et normatifs dominants, et/ou en sanctionnant les comportements ou choix déviants. Quels effets ont-elles sur le degré de diversité ? Favorisent-elles une uniformisation de l’offre ?

Ensuite, il faut s’interroger sur la manière dont les établissements réagissent face à ces évolutions, mais aussi dans quelle mesure ils y participent, voire jouent avec ces nouvelles règles du jeu. Enfin, se pose la question de l’articulation entre, d’un côté, les normes, principes, règles qui tendent ainsi à se diffuser et à s’imposer au-delà de toutes frontières et qui poussent les institutions à développer des stratégies individuelles de positionnement sur différents espaces, et de l’autre, les normes, principes, règles que les autorités publiques locales, nationales ou supranationales (et notamment européennes) cherchent à développer pour instaurer un pilotage plus collectif, plus coordonné sur chacun de ces niveaux.

3. Déroulement de la conférence
Cette conférence internationale se déroulera sur trois journées (début le 1er février à 14 heures et clôture le samedi 3 à midi) et comprendra des séances plénières et des ateliers. Les communications peuvent être présentées et écrites en français ou en anglais, mais aucune traduction d’une langue vers une autre ne sera assurée. Les frais d’hôtel des intervenants seront couverts. Le remboursement des frais de déplacement sera envisagé en fonction des ressources dont nous disposerons pour organiser cette manifestation.

4. Soumission de propositions de communication
Date limite de soumission
Les propositions de communication devront être envoyées pour le 26 juin 2006 au plus tard. Il est impératif d’utiliser le formulaire proposé à la fin de cet appel. Elles peuvent être rédigées en anglais ou en français. Elles devront être adressées par courrier postal ou électronique à Christine Musselin Centre de Sociologie des

Organisations (Sciences Po et CNRS) 19 rue Amélie

France
c.musselin@cso.cnrs.fr

Modalités et critères de sélection des propositions
Leur examen sera confié au comité scientifique du RESUP qui fera connaître ses décisions aux auteurs pour le 15 juillet 2006. Les critères que le comité prendra en compte pour émettre ses avis seront les suivants :

1/ congruence entre la contribution proposée et les thèmes de la conférence

2/ originalité et consistance du matériau empirique mobilisé : les matériaux de seconde main, les données empiriques recueillies sur un projet développé par l’institution dont dépend le contributeur et les enquêtes trop restreintes, donneront lieu à des avis négatifs.

3/ la pertinence du cadre analytique retenu pour traiter de la problématique annoncée.

Un intérêt particulier sera en outre porté aux propositions traitant de comparaisons
internationales ou de comparaison entre secteurs.

Remise des textes et diffusion de ceux-ci avant la conférence
Les participants retenus devront adresser leur contribution écrite pour le 15 novembre 2006. L’ensemble des textes sera mis en ligne avant la conférence sur un site accessible aux seuls intervenants, afin qu’ils aient la possibilité de prendre connaissance des travaux des uns et des autres. Les textes seront accessibles à tous les publics intéressés sur le site du RESUP, après la tenue de la conférence.

Publication
Comme pour les précédents colloques du RESUP, différentes formes de diffusion seront
envisagées. Une publication des actes du colloque, reprenant l’intégralité des textes proposés tels qu’ils auront été transmis par les auteurs avant la conférence, pourra être réalisée sous forme de polycopié ou de CD-Rom. Sous réserve d’intéresser un éditeur ou une revue, le comité scientifique du RESUP organisera une évaluation scientifique de toutes les contributions et décidera de la publication, après d’éventuelles révisions, de tout ou partie d’entre elles dans un ouvrage collectif.
