S ocial and solidarity economy, the commons, pu blic action and livelihood” International C onference, Paris may 2016 Dear friends and members of ISA47, I am very glad to announce that ISA47 is a partner organizer of the conference * “Societies in transition. Social and solidarity economy, the commons, public action and livelihood” *that will take place in Paris in May and is co-organized by the CNAM-Paris, the EMES network, the Polanyi Institute. The topic is timely and important for social movement students. Social movements are more than protests. They prefigurate alternatives and create new worlds. All over the world, citizens and movements have built initiative for a social and ecological transition and a fairer world. Solidarity economy and the commons are key elements of many of these initiatives. In this perspective, ISA47 wants to foster dialogues between social movement studies and research on solidarity economy and the commons, as well as dialogues between researchers and actors. This conference is an exceptional opportunities to promote these confluences and dialogues. I thus hope that many of you will send an abstract ( ! before February 1st !) and attend this conference. A selection of short texts by leading participants will be published on our platform Open Movements during the conference. I am very grateful to Professor Jean-Louis Laville, who has set up this conference and whose brilliant work plea for more dialogue between solidarity economy and social movement studies as much as a call for another economy. Please find the call for papers in attachment.
