Doctoral School of Social Sciences
One of the unique features of the Doctoral School of Social Sciences is that most of its partner teams focus primarily on field and investigative research from France and abroad in the fields of sociology and geography. Some of its sociology research teams are linked with North American field schools and benefit from long-lasting, close partnerships with them.
Another key asset to the doctoral school is the diversity of cultural and geographical areas covered by the teams, including North Africa, the ex-USSR and Europe, and the importance placed on interdisciplinary collaboration as championed by several of its programmes.
Themes include:
- Notions of space and time in the social sciences
- History and epistemology of the science of society
- Economic and social ties
- History of life and institutions
- Globalisation and society
- Approaches to inequality
- Risk assessment
- Languages and cultures
