COLLOQUE INTERNATIONAL : &#34;LES ARTS EN TEMPS DE CRISE, PERSPECTIVES FRANCO-BRITANNIQUES&#34;Jeudi 15 d&#233;cembre 2011, universit&#233; de Cergy-Pontoise et vendredi 16 d&#233;cembre 2011, mus&#233;e RodinOrganisation scientifique / Scientific organization:    CICC (Civilisations et Identit&#233;s Culturelles Compar&#233;es) Universit&#233; de Cergy Pontoise, Val d&#8217;Oise (Greater Paris), France    Centre for Cultural Policy Studies, University of Warwick, UK    Mus&#233;e Rodin, Paris, France Appel &#224; communications / Call for papers (scroll down for the English version)Les r&#233;cents soubresauts de l&#8217;&#233;conomie mondiale ont affect&#233; l&#8217;ensemble des pays et des secteurs de l&#8217;intervention publique. En France et au Royaume-Uni, le financement de la culture &#233;tant souvent consid&#233;r&#233; comme une variable d&#8217;ajustement par rapport &#224; d&#8217;autres services publics jug&#233;s prioritaires comme l&#8217;emploi, la sant&#233;, ou l&#8217;&#233;ducation, on peut redouter des r&#233;percussions de grande envergure affectant artistes, institutions artistiques (notamment les mus&#233;es et les galeries), mais aussi collectivit&#233;s locales, gouvernements centraux et organismes de subvention. En outre, &#224; l&#8217;heure o&#249; les gouvernements explorent les moyens de favoriser le m&#233;c&#233;nat et le volontariat, ces derniers secteurs sont eux-aussi frapp&#233;s par la crise.Comment les organisations g&#232;rent-elles les pressions qui p&#232;sent sur elles ? Comment les responsables politiques, les professionnels de la culture et les artistes d&#233;cident-ils des &#233;conomies &#224; r&#233;aliser ? Le couperet est-il d&#233;j&#224; tomb&#233; (et si c&#8217;est le cas, o&#249;) ? Quelles autres sources de revenus priv&#233;s ou publics ont pu &#234;tre trouv&#233;es ? Les &#233;chelons locaux et r&#233;gionaux ont-ils &#233;t&#233; affect&#233;s de fa&#231;on diff&#233;rente du niveau national ? Les formations de l&#8217;enseignement sup&#233;rieur destin&#233;es aux futurs artistes et gestionnaires de la culture ont-elles modifi&#233; leur offre pour pr&#233;parer les &#233;tudiants &#224; affronter cette situation ?L&#8217;objectif de ce colloque est d&#8217;interroger les choix politiques, organisationnels et &#233;conomiques qui s&#8217;ouvrent aux acteurs politiques en ce temps de retour &#224; la rigueur. Les mod&#232;les d&#8217;administration de la culture en France et au Royaume-Uni se rapprochant de plus en plus, il appara&#238;t opportun d&#8217;examiner la fa&#231;on dont les gouvernements r&#233;agissent aux nouveaux d&#233;fis auxquels ils sont confront&#233;s afin de d&#233;terminer dans quelle mesure ce ph&#233;nom&#232;ne de convergence est appel&#233; &#224; durer.Les communications pourront s&#8217;attacher &#224; explorer les d&#233;buts de la gestion de la crise financi&#232;re comme les r&#233;actions vis-&#224;-vis des restrictions budg&#233;taires qui ont suivi en France et/ou au Royaume-Uni, que ce soit &#224; partir d&#8217;une perspective politique, &#233;conomique, manag&#233;riale, mais aussi sociologique, g&#233;ographique ou historique. Les approches transdisciplinaires et comparatives seront particuli&#232;rement appr&#233;ci&#233;es.Modalit&#233;s de soumissionLes propositions de communication en anglais et en fran&#231;ais si possible (environ 500 mots) sont &#224; envoyer aux deux organisateurs, accompagn&#233;es de cinq mots cl&#233;s et d&#8217;une note biographique (5 &#224; 10 lignes)    C&#233;cile Doustaly Cecile.Doustaly@u‐cergy.fr    Clive Gray C.J.Gray@warwick.ac.uk&#160;avant le 15 juin 2011Composition du comit&#233; scientifique : http://artsintimesofcrisis.wordpress.com/comite-scientifique-advisory-committee/The Arts in Times of Crisis (english version)The recent turmoil in the global economy has blighted all countries and areas of public policy. In France and the United-Kingdom, the cultural field&#8217;s resources being often seen as an adjustment tool against other prioritized public services such as employment, health or education &#8212; the consequences of this for artists, arts institutions (notably museums and galleries) as well as local authorities, central governments and funding agencies are potentially wide-ranging. Moreover, new possibilities of private support and volunteering are being explored by governments, just when these sectors are also being hit by the crisis.How are organisations managing the pressures that they are being placed under? How are decisions about savings being made by politicians, managers and practising artists? Has the axe started to fall and, if so, where? What alternative private, voluntary and public sources of income have been found? Have the local and regional levels been affected in a different way from the national? Have higher education training courses targeted at the artists and arts managers of the future modified their offerings to prepare their students to deal with the situation?The conference intends to question the policy, organisational and economic choices that political actors are facing as they deal with the consequences of a return to hard times for governments. The developing similarities between France and Britain in terms of managing the arts provides an opportunity to examine how governments are confronting the new challenges that exist, and to conclude to what extent this convergence phenomenon is a long-lasting one.Submissions    We welcome papers that explore the early stages of the management of financial stress as well as reactions towards later budget tightening in the arts in France and/or the United Kingdom from political, economic, managerial but also sociological, geographical or historical perspectives. Transdisciplinary and comparative approaches are especially welcomed.        500‐word proposals in English or in French should be sent to both organisers with a short biographic presentation (5‐10 lines) and 5 keywords.
