CONFERENCES 2016

Résumé : In 2003, Castree proposed a conceptual framework to study the commodification processes of nature and the environment. Fifteen years later, literature has become abundant and multidisciplinary. The aim of this contribution is to present a review in social sciences of commodification processes (monetary valuation, marketization, privatization, etc.) of natural resources, ecosystems and the biodiviersity, to delineate the current state of knowledge, and to evaluate, with some historical perspective, the success of systematization attempts. The overall landscape seems to us to lack a truly renewed systemic ambition to understand commodification beyond its detailed forms. In particular, the construction of visual representations (we propose one in terms of ‘commodification chain’) would be useful to clarify the diverse perspectives.

Les deuxièmes rencontres d'Intelligence Technologique visent à échanger sur l'importance de l'information scientifique et technologique pour la prise de décision. Elle sera l'occasion d'échanger avec des acteurs publics et privés et d'avoir des retours d'expériences.
