Travail, Identités, Métier : quelles métamorphoses ? - International symposium June 23, 24 and 25, 2009

International symposium organized by Professor Alain Berthoz and Professor Yves Clot, Chair of Psychology of Work at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers.

The aim of this multidisciplinary colloquium is to bring together experts from the academic world and social actors from the world of work, in an attempt to understand and describe the new forms that work is taking today. The aim is to shed light on what's new in the real world, and the original issues surrounding the changing relationships between work, subjects, techniques, organization and institutions. The emergence of the new, from every angle, is the point of entry. But without naivety. And to do this, history will be mobilized not as a view of the past, but to understand how this past is transformed, or not, into possible futures. It should lead to the identification of priority lines of research around the selected themes, which could then enable a major renewal of the problematic in this field, adapted to the formidable transformations in the nature and social forms of work and their consequences.
