2nd International Conference of the Collège international des sciences du territoire (CIST)

From 27 to 28 March 2014 at Paris, Campus Paris Diderot

Frontiers and boundaries of territorial sciences
Registration before March 21st 2014

The Collège international des sciences du territoire (CIST) is happy to invite you to its 2nd international conference on March, Thursday 27th and Friday 28th in Paris.
"Territories are both a social construct and a materiality observed by different disciplinary fields. This broad interdisciplinarity is a difficult, yet necessary, pioneer front. Another frontier to be crossed is the all too frequent gulf between researchers and the actors of territorial development. Territorial data are a field that offers opportunities for fertile debate."
These two days will see 60 interventions within 18 sessions: conflicts and compromises; territorial information; medias and territories; mobility, subject and territory; territoire as coordinator; the territories of the living togetherness; territorial cohesion as project; patrimonialisation at stake; regional integration; contributive data; cross-bordering; how territories resist to streams; territories and proximity; individuals as territorial players; territories and energy alternatives; territorial gaps; territorial indicators.
Besides, 2 plenary sessions will deal with worldwide agriculture and regional integration in the world.
