ESLS (Economic Sociology and Labour Studies) is a PhD programme, now in its second year, created and managed by a network of scholars in economic sociology, labour studies and related fields working in six universities in North-Western Italy, as a part of the Nasp project. One of the key aims of the programme is to integrate advanced teaching and research in the field: the ResFron cycle of seminars, now in its third year and kindly sponsored by Fondazione Cariplo and Compagnia di San Paolo, is one of the major activities promoted to this aim. From December 2014 to June 2015, six seminars will be held by scholars belonging to the ESLS faculty (and one guest). All seminars will look at key problems of contemporary Italian and European society from the point of view of their own research. The aim is not just to share advanced concepts and techniques, but to discuss the current social situation from a social scientific point of view.
Seminars, held in English, are open to faculty, PhD students and to anyone interested.
