New training audiences in the grey areas of employment?
As an institution built on the wage norm, vocational training has left out many people in the grey areas of work and employment. For the past ten years, the public authorities have been deploying significant resources, with uneven success, to give these neglected groups, whether they are young...
La situation et l’activité de nouveaux travailleurs indépendants qualifiés (« I-Pros ») en Belgique, France et Italie font l’objet dans cet article d’une investigation en trois étapes, à la focale de plus en plus resserrée. Tout d’abord, une comparaison des contextes nationaux fait ressortir leur inconfort et leur précarité au sein d’une « zone gri...
What relationships do same-sex parent families foster daily at school? Do they feel as welcome as any other family? Up until now, few studies exist on this subject, not only in France but internationally. The objective of this paper is therefore to rectify this lack through exploring the relationships that lesbian-parented and gay-parented families...
It is assumed that multi‐parenthood continues to be a very minor form of family organisation, even among same‐sex couples. Nevertheless there is a great variety of situations within these minority configurations, which can be characterised by various linkages between couple relationships and parenthood relationships. Moreover, the families in quest...
Initially employed by lawyers and geopolitical experts, the concept of ‘grey zones’ can be usefully applied to analyse the recent changes on the labour market. It provides a means of bypassing the dualist approaches that contrast waged work and self-employment, insiders and outsiders, or, then again, formal and informal work in a binary way. It pro...
In light of the renewed expansion of independent work and the blurring of the boundaries between wage labour and independence, the emergence of new collective actors in the space between wage labour and independent work/contracting is of critical significance. In this article we propose to highlight two experiences of collective action, both in Fra...
Durante los últimos veinte años, las cooperativas de actividades y de empleo francesas han constituido una especie de tercera vía entre salariado y microemprendedorismo, delineando los perfiles de una relación renovada con el trabajo y lo colectivo. Estas formas asociativas de trabajo que se construyen
en organizaciones democráticas originales, ¿pe...
Who are the father figures or cultural role models for paternal involvement in France today? In this article, we examine changes in the cultural models of father involvement or father figures from a framework of family sociology and in light of the move from male breadwinner models to dual earner families. First, we note the persistence of a neopat...
This article analyses three figures of knowledge workers – performing arts workers, salaried entrepreneurs and makers – examined through their institutional regulation and, mainly, their practices of appropriation of knowledge. All of these workers are positioned outside the regular rules of employment, but their activity is framed by different ins...
I. Note liminaire A l’issue de ce dossier ou nous esperons avoir rendu visible l’enchevetrement des enjeux intellectuels et politiques souleves par les pratiques makers, en particulier autour de la creation de lieux physiques de production collaborative, il nous a paru utile de donner la parole a un acteur du mouvement peer to peer qui se situe pr...
Les politiques publiques adressent aux parents une invitation, voire une injonction, à être de « bons parents » (Martin, 2014), ce qui signifie en particulier se montrer capables de réflexivité sur leurs pratiques et prêts à coopérer avec les professionnels de la petite enfance. Nos tra vaux, financés par la Caisse Nationale des Allocations Familia...
Dans cette communication, nous proposons d’étudier les enjeux de la redéfinition du cercle familial sur les interactions entre familles et institutions en France.
Après avoir longtemps été la norme dans les sociétés paysannes, la cohabitation intergénérationnelle a laissé la place dans les sociétés occidentales à la famille nucléaire resserrée auto...
Business and Employment Co-operatives: the practices of institutional innovation
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that Business and Employment Co-operatives (BEC) are factories of institutional innovation: they experiment new forms of professional relationships and new linkages between individual business and collective commitment. At first...
The “self-employed” constitute a highly heterogeneous statistical category. The present article argues that a significant recent increase in their numbers translates a sea change in today’s production and/or work paradigms. The patterns of the “independent workers” who have been emerging specifically mirrors those generally associated with skilled...
L’expérience des familles homoparentales s’inscrit en tension entre le désir de conformité, la nécessité d’inventer de nouveaux rôles parentaux, et la critique de modèles hétéronormés. Nous proposons d’explorer l’expérience vécue de ces familles, encore mal connue, à partir d’une recherche sur la parentalité intitulée « Etre parent face aux institu...
We propose to analyse three figures of knowledge workers: art and entertainment workers in France, salaried- entrepreneurs and makers, of three points of view.
Firstly, we present the institutional framework. All of these workers are out of regular rules of employment. But their activity is framed by different institutional architectures. Art and...
What roles for French fathers in different familial arrangements?
F. Berton, M.C. Bureau & B. Rist
LISE (CNRS/CNAM) Paris
Over the last few decades, family arrangements have become more diverse in France: mono-parental, same-sex, migrant, bicultural and step families. This new context redefines the roles of fathers within the family and outsi...
This paper highlights one of the main characteristics of French social field experiments: a triangular game involving the State, local partners and experts. Firstly, it focuses on the consequences of the State’s ambiguous relationship with local authorities as regards social field experiments. This difficulty constitutes a recurring impediment for...

— The translation of welfare applications: the cases of disabled people and of the inclusion of young people — Through accumulating data on two welfare rights allocation schemes (assistance for young people and disability rights), we examine the status reserved for the applicant, along with the bureaucratic and moral approach applied in sorting thr...
Issues of work and health in decisions about a person’s entitlement to benefits
In this article the authors examine how various perceptions of the relations between work and health affect the multidisciplinary teams tasked with deciding a person’s entitlement to disability benefits. By having to deal with workers, who for health reasons find themse...
The reform of the system of unemployment insurance for art and entertainment workers in France has created a long and intense social conflict. Here we defend the thesis that time control is a major stake in this conflict. The confrontation on the economic field (of employment and cultural industry) is coupled with another confrontation regarding ti...
Le salariat connaît une phase critique de son histoire, suscitant un débat sur la signification de ses métamorphoses et les horizons possibles de son devenir. S'agit-il de renforcer les institutions du salariat ? De créer de nouveaux droits attachés à la personne, non à l'emploi ? De rechercher l'émancipation du travail au-delà du salariat, en conc...
In France, the topic of hybridisation has gradually made itself heard in public space since the 1980’s through a rhetoric often possessing prophetic overtones. This article first underlines the traps inherent in using the term, insofar as the word itself conveys an ideology the thinkers of hybridisation nonetheless seek to free themselves from. We...

Figures of user participation in commissions for awarding rights for people with disabilities
France has recently set new provisions on access to social rights in relation with disability: application reviews may now involve a hearing for the applicants themselves and disabled people’s associations sit on the review committee. In the light of these...
Based on a survey conducted in 15 firms, associations or occupations where work-based experiences were being validated under the terms of a law that entered the French Labor Code in 2002, questions are raised about this process and its capacity for obtaining more recognition for the work done by wage-earners. After identifying four distinct employe...
Du travail à l'action publique, les dispositifs d'évaluation font aujourd'hui système en exerçant une emprise croissante sur nos vies. Si chacun de ces dispositifs apparaît vulnérable à la critique, la machinerie de l'évaluation, soudée par un même esprit de classement et de comparaison systématique, est devenue largement autonome. Ce qui rend la c...
Intermediaries in the labor market.
The organization of connections between jobs and applicants is periodically questioned and revised. How economic and sociological theories explore the role of intermediaries ? Several models can be used to analyze their activities and justify their interventions. We argue that institutional theories, studies of s...

La figure de l'artiste tiraillé entre la création et les contingences d'un travail alimentaire n'épuise pas la réalité de la pluriactivité dans les mondes de l'art et de la culture. Aujourd'hui, vivre de son art implique souvent de vivre aussi grâce à l'art, en tant qu'enseignant, adminstrateur, techncien, animateur d'atelier, médiateur ou critique...
