Calls > Call for Papers

THE CALL FOR PAPERS IS CLOSED.

The latest in the series of CIST symposia, this 5th international symposium spotlights the concept of population as a central issue in the debates within territorial sciences. The concept of population, which is central to demography and biology and more marginal for other disciplines, involves the grouping together of individual entities. Depending on the particular approach used, the preferred criterion for aggregation will be the social, territorial, biological, etc., with timescales and observation scales varying accordingly. Linking together population, time and territory in a transdisciplinary and international perspective is the main goal of this conference; beyond the fact that it represents a theoretical and methodological breakthrough, the diversity of the proposed thematic sessions is a clear sign that this trio is at the heart of contemporary issues. The new Condorcet Campus is an ideal place to address these questions.

“This is a completely different way of making use of the dichotomy between the group and the individual, the social body as a whole and its most basic constituent elements, a different approach that would have an impact in terms of what is referred to as the population.”
Michel Foucault, "Security, Territory, Population", Lecture at the Collège de France on January 25th, 1978

Provisional calendar

- Deadline for submitting proposals for papers: February 24th, 2020, exclusively via the Submit page (if you do not already have an account, you have to create one)
- Reply from the Scientific Committee: April/May 2020.

The length should be between 10,000 to 15,000 characters. Proposals will be reviewed by the conference scientific committee and session co-facilitators.

Publication of selected communications

All accepted papers will be published on the conference website and will appear in conference proceedings, which will be available on conference opening day. They will also be deposited in Hal open archives. Session facilitators have also planned some sort of publication following the conference. In addition, conference coordinators are considering a collective publication based on the input and feedback they expect to get from session facilitators.
