In the spirit of EuroPoLiS, the aim of this conference is to bring
together, around specific issues, researchers from different
disciplines in the Humanities and Social Sciences interested in the
relationship between space and politics.
The aim is to allow as much discussion as possible, so speakers are
requested to keep papers short (about 15 minutes). Papers can be
given in English or French.
The conference fee of 250 francs (60 francs for students) includes
coffee and tea, two lunches and a reception. We are arranging
accommodation with a local hotel which, if there are sufficient
numbers, will be about 250 francs per night group rate or 360
individual rate.
A circular will be sent out in early August with more detailed
information on the programme and accommodation.
