CFP Midterm Conference of the Europeanist Network of the European Association of Social Anthropologists
Dear colleagues,
Please find below the call for papers for the 2013 Midterm Conference of
the Europeanist Network of the European Association of Social
Anthropologists (EASA). The conference, entitled "The Nomadism of Social
Anthropologists", will be held in Bucharest, Romania on 26-27 April 2013.
In order to improve the attendance and visibility of what is expected to be
a relatively small conference (12-16 contributions), we have negotiated a
partnership with the organisers of the 11th Regional Meeting of the Border
Crossings Network (see www.border-crossings.eu), who have kindly agreed to
be our hosts.
We look forward to receiving your abstracts (maximum 400 words) by 15
January 2013.
Yours faithfully,
Samuel Shapiro

CFP ?The Nomadism of Social Anthropologists?
Midterm Conference of the Europeanist Network of the European Association
of Social Anthropologists (EASA) ? jointly held with the Border Crossings
Network
26-27th of April 2013, Bucharest, Romania
While anthropologists of the past decades have devoted increasing attention
both to questions of reflexivity and to people ?on the move? such as
migrants, relatively little attention has focused on the geographical and
cultural movement of social anthropologists themselves, especially since
the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Even if there is growing interest in
non-hegemonic anthropologies by scholars who have often lived in several
countries (esp. Daveluy and Dorias 2010; Ribeiro and Escobar 2006) and
recent work on ?the ethnographic self as resource? (Collins and Gallinat
2010) argues that anthropologists? personal experiences provide potentially
insightful ethnographic data that can enrich their scientific analysis, the
consequences of past and present anthropologists? nomadism on their own
research ? including their training, career and grant opportunities ? have
not been thoroughly analysed. It is common knowledge that today, in Europe
and beyond, being ?on the move? has increasingly become a part of many
anthropologists? lives.
Possibilities for academic nomadism exist in the student years through the
EU Erasmus programme and joint PhDs (?cotutelles?), and continue into
professional academic life due to the scarcity of academic positions,
hyper-specialisation, the exigencies of funding and the constraints of
funding criteria (see for example the EU?s Marie Curie programs) or to
simple anthropological curiosity. While not being restricted to
anthropologists, this mobile mode of life has particular consequences for
the scientific work of anthropologists, from how they perceive
relationships in the field to the ways in which they envisage their
writing, from the need to develop coping strategies faced to continually
changing research groups to the difficult adaptation to a new foreign
audience. Questions of fundamental and applied research as well as of
neutrality, engagement and militantism are but some issues on which
anthropologists? personal trajectories weigh heavily.
This conference seeks original theoretical and personal reflections about
how academic nomadism through different countries, cultures and continents
affects the practices, day-to-day experiences and theoretical approaches of
social anthropologists (that include but are not limited to the domain of
their training, teaching and research). We invite contributors to consider
some of the questions below:
? What motivates future anthropologists to seek training in one country
instead of another?
? How does exposure to anthropology as practiced in several countries
influence their research: the topics that anthropologists study, the
theoretical approaches they privilege and the language(s) and audience(s)
they publish in and for?
? How do larger historical and political issues (e.g. post-socialism,
former British and French colonial presence, American empire, regional
traditions such as in Latin America) play into the larger world in which
anthropologists live and research, and influence their theoretical
approaches?
? What kinds of moral and ethical issues are involved when the
researcher is based in several countries, or has to negotiate different
ethical standards between the country of one?s host institution and that of
one?s fieldwork, while having been socialised in yet another ethical mode?
? How does the researcher negotiate his or her figure of rootlessness in
?stable? field environments?
As the professional anthropologist as an academic and intellectual migrant
is not a completely new character, analyses of historical material on
20thcentury anthropologists is welcome.
Please send 400-word abstracts in English by the 15th of January 2013 to
ef.easa.conference@gmail.com. The conference will be held jointly with the
Border Crossings Network?s Regional Conference (
http://www.border-crossings.eu) in Bucharest on 26-27 of April 2013.

5th Annual McGill Anthropology Graduate Students' Conference - Setting anthropology in motion: 'Movement' in the contemporary world -McGill University - March, 2013
5th Annual McGill Anthropology Graduate Students' Conference
Setting anthropology in motion: 'Movement' in the contemporary world
McGill University
Friday, March 22, 2013
Keynote Speaker: Dr. Peter Locke
Lecturer in Public and International Affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School
Princeton University
We begin with a truism: the world is changing. Increasingly,
anthropologists must engage
with 'movement' in many aspects of their work. The vectors of
'movement,' however, can be
understood both in terms of the actual objects or phenomena under
study, and as adjustments in
how we approach and conceptualize anthropological research. Our goal
is to provide a space to
collectively 'workshop' the idea of 'movement.'
Instances of 'movement' can be identified in shifts towards
non-governmental initiatives
to effect change; people slipping in and out of defined categories;
people's mobilization to achieve
collective goals (e.g., rights for trees in Ecuador, rights to
experimental medical treatment, etc.);
the global circulation of people, ideas, objects, and money;
developments in biomedicine,
information and communications technology; the re-orientation of
political thinking and action
in terms of climate change; or the exploration of new ways to capture
sensory dimensions of
'movement.'
Our challenge as anthropologists is to keep pace. We propose using
'movement' as a
device for thinking through anthropological problems and the process
of fieldwork. On one
hand, 'movement' can broadly characterize the phenomena we study
today; on the other hand,
'movement' can denote corresponding shifts in how anthropologists can
(or must) re-examine the
tools at their disposal. In the spirit of generating a productive
environment where students and
faculty can discuss and collaborate, we ask participants to consider
some of the following
questions:
- Does 'movement' (as broadly conceived above but also open to
interpretation),
manifest in your own research? If so, in what ways does 'movement' become
apparent? If not, how would you characterize what you are studying?
- What is anthropologically curious about such 'movements'?
- Does the study of ?movement? in your research present any challenges
in terms of
how you can describe and/or analyze the phenomena under study? If so, what do
these challenges consist of? If not, then what kinds of descriptive or
analytic tools do
you use in your study of 'movement'?
- What role does 'movement' play in how we conceive of anthropology as
a discipline?
- Besides 'movement,' what other devices do you propose can be used by
anthropologists to describe contemporary phenomena?
We hope that re-thinking the idea of 'movement' can generate new lines
of inquiry in
individual researchers' work, as well as in the anthropological
discipline at large.
Submissions may include, but are not limited to, work in the following
subject areas:
- mobile populations (e.g., migrant workers, diaspora, etc.)
- governance (e.g., problems of governance, modes of governance ,etc.)
- self and subjectivity
- collective change (e.g., rights movements, protests, staying local, etc.)
- new and emerging technologies in various domains (e.g., social
media, biomedicine,
ICT, etc.)
- humans and the environment (e.g., climate change, urbanization, food
and agriculture,
etc.)
- fieldwork (experiences, problems, questions, etc.)
- sensory ethnography (methodological and theoretical problems, as
well as possibilities)
We invite students to submit abstracts of no more than 300 words to
anthrogradmcgill@gmail.com. Please include your name, graduate status (e.g.,
Undergraduate, M.A. student, Ph.D. candidate, etc.) and contact information.

Love and Sentimentalism in Popular Music - An Interdisciplinary Symposium, Royal Holloway University of London, 27-28 June 2013
Love and Sentimentalism in Popular Music
An Interdisciplinary Symposium
Royal Holloway University of London
27-28 June 2013
Keynote Speaker: Christine Yano, University of Hawaii
The distinct yet linked concepts of love and sentimentalism are among
the most widespread emotional ideas found in popular music around the
world. Yet, with the notable exceptions of Christine Yano?s research
in Japan (2002) and Martin Stokes? research in Egypt (2007) and Turkey
(2010) the themes of love and sentimentalism in popular music have
received little serious attention. There has been an implicit tendency
to view love uncritically, as a universal concept, which disregards
its diverse cultural, historical, and musical manifestations and
representations. Furthermore, love and sentimentalism in popular music
are too often discarded as banal invocations of a personal realm,
often leading their broader relations to society, culture, history,
and politics to be overlooked or inadequately analysed.
Both Yano and Stokes challenge us to consider how narratives of love
and sentimentalism may converge with ideas of nation and citizenship
in popular music and its star performers. Indeed, popular music around
the world has often been connected to ideas of national sentiment,
ways of loving, and belonging whether through official state
involvement or within intimate public spheres which operate beyond,
or, in spite of, the state. This situation raises some important
questions. How might the relationship between popular music, love,
sentimentalism, and national citizenship be manifested differently in
particular cultural and historical contexts? How can we reconcile such
nationally orientated conceptions of love, sentiment and popular music
with frequently cosmopolitan aesthetics and transnational economies of
affect? Why do some styles of popular music and their affective work
resist being bound by national frameworks more easily than others?
Alternatively, how might we interpret lovelorn narratives of romantic
sorrow, suffering, and frustration in popular music in relation to
wider experiences of dislocation, alienation, anomie, and
disenfranchisement in modernity? Moreover, how are concepts of love
and sentimentalism gendered and how is this manifested in musical
performance?
It is also important to note that the majority of popular music that
deals with ideas of love and sentimentalism exists in the form of
song. That leads us to consider in what ways love and sentimentalism
are expressed distinctly in the domains of music, words, and voice and
how these domains interact. Furthermore, how does the expression of
love and sentimentalism depend on who is performing, their social
status, and any pre-existing relations of intimacy between performer
and listener? How might such relations of intimacy and musical
articulations of love and sentimentalism be mediated by technology?
Papers that shed light on these themes are invited from any relevant
discipline including ethnomusicology, anthropology, popular music
studies, musicology, sociology, history, and film studies. Please
email abstracts of no more than 250 words for 20-minute papers (with a
short biographical note) to James Butterworth
(james.butterworth.2009@live.rhul.ac.uk) by 31 January 2012.

often leading their broader relations to society, culture, history,
and politics to be overlooked or inadequately analysed.
Both Yano and Stokes challenge us to consider how narratives of love
and sentimentalism may converge with ideas of nation and citizenship
in popular music and its star performers. Indeed, popular music around
the world has often been connected to ideas of national sentiment,
ways of loving, and belonging whether through official state
involvement or within intimate public spheres which operate beyond,
or, in spite of, the state. This situation raises some important
questions. How might the relationship between popular music, love,
sentimentalism, and national citizenship be manifested differently in
particular cultural and historical contexts? How can we reconcile such
nationally orientated conceptions of love, sentiment and popular music
with frequently cosmopolitan aesthetics and transnational economies of
affect? Why do some styles of popular music and their affective work
resist being bound by national frameworks more easily than others?
Alternatively, how might we interpret lovelorn narratives of romantic
sorrow, suffering, and frustration in popular music in relation to
wider experiences of dislocation, alienation, anomie, and
disenfranchisement in modernity? Moreover, how are concepts of love
and sentimentalism gendered and how is this manifested in musical
performance?
It is also important to note that the majority of popular music that
deals with ideas of love and sentimentalism exists in the form of
song. That leads us to consider in what ways love and sentimentalism
are expressed distinctly in the domains of music, words, and voice and
how these domains interact. Furthermore, how does the expression of
love and sentimentalism depend on who is performing, their social
status, and any pre-existing relations of intimacy between performer
and listener? How might such relations of intimacy and musical
articulations of love and sentimentalism be mediated by technology?
Papers that shed light on these themes are invited from any relevant
discipline including ethnomusicology, anthropology, popular music
studies, musicology, sociology, history, and film studies. Please
email abstracts of no more than 250 words for 20-minute papers (with a
short biographical note) to James Butterworth
(james.butterworth.2009@live.rhul.ac.uk) by 31 January 2012.

TECHNOLOGIES
LIBÉRATION OU EXPLOITATION DES FEMMES?
Colloque interdisciplinaire de l'Université féministe d'été
Université Laval, Québec, 19-24 mai 2013
Les développements technologiques considérables des dernières décennies
influencent profondément les représentations de soi et du monde, les
conditions de vie et le changement social. Si personne aujourd'hui ne
voudrait se priver des avantages qui en découlent, force est de constater
que, dans l'état actuel des rapports sociaux, les retombées ne sont pas
toutes positives et n'affectent pas tout le monde de la même manière. De
profondes inégalités sociales existent non seulement dans l'accès aux
nouvelles technologies mais aussi dans l'utilisation qui en est faite et
dans leur contrôle. Ces inégalités sont particulièrement marquées entre
les hommes et les femmes ainsi qu'entre différentes régions dans le monde.
De plus, l'ampleur, la rapidité et la complexité des transformations qui
nous touchent directement et indirectement font en sorte qu'il est
difficile de se tenir à jour et de conserver une distance critique.
D'où le titre de notre 11e édition : TECHNOLOGIES : LIBÉRATION OU
EXPLOITATION DES FEMMES?
Du 19 au 24 mai 2013, l'Université féministe d'été vous convie à une
semaine intensive d'échanges et de ressourcement, en compagnie de
féministes oeuvrant dans différents domaines et disciplines. Ensemble,
dans une atmosphère à la fois studieuse et conviviale, nous ferons le
point et réfléchirons aux enjeux soulevés par diverses technologies dans
nos vies personnelle, professionnelle et sociale.
Le programme est en conçu de telle manière que, dans chacune des séances,
une heure complète est réservée aux questions et aux échanges entre la
salle et les conférencières et conférenciers.
L'Université féministe d'été est ouverte, sans préalable, à toute personne
intéressée. Il est aussi possible aux étudiant-e-s des universités
québécoises d'obtenir des crédits de 1er ou 2e cycle.

International Development
The Society for International Development is pleased to announce the
launch of the new program called 'EAST AFRICA TODAY'. It is a weekly audio
program of 30 minutes that goes on every Monday and is hosted on the SID
Forum
Each episode will see influential East Africans - be it a politician,
policy-maker, activist, economist and entrepreneur - discuss interesting
trends and dynamics that are shaping the region and explore domestic and
international dynamics that will shape the future of regional integration
and beyond.
This podcast series is a follow up initiative of the 'State of East Africa
Report 2012: Deepening Integration, Intensifying Challenges' and is aimed
at broadening the conversations and debates surrounding the findings and
dynamics hinted by the report which would have long-term consequences for
the region.
Moving away from being a news interview, the East Africa Today Podcast is
unique as it is a free flowing conversation and discussion. It is created
and curated by Ahmed Salim (Program Manager SID, Dar es Salaam). Podcast
can be downloaded to a portable media player, as well as computers.

Scholarship: Masters & Post-Doctoral Study on Poverty, Land and Agrarian Studies
Scholarship: Masters & Post-Doctoral Study on Poverty, Land and Agrarian
Studies (University of the Western Cape)
Professor Ben Cousins of the Institute for Poverty, Land and Agrarian
Studies (PLAAS) at University of the Western Cape holds the South African
Research Chair in Poverty, Land and Agrarian Studies (funded by the
National Research Foundation). He supports and supervises a number of
MPhil and PhD students who are undertaking field research on aspects of
agrarian change, land reform and poverty reduction in several provinces.
Applications are invited for two (2) scholarships for MPhil studies by
full thesis and one (1) post-doctoral fellowship.
A five year research programme is under way seeking to answer two
over-arching questions: what processes of socio-economic change are under
way in the South African countryside that are likely to influence the
outcomes and impacts of land and agrarian reform? what are the impacts of
land and agrarian reform policies and programmes on agricultural
productivity, agrarian structure and rural poverty?
Researchers also explore the policy implications of their research findings.

MA in Cultural Analysis and Social Theory
MA in Cultural Analysis and Social Theory, Wilfrid Laurier
University,Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
Application deadline: January 15, 2013

from interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary perspectives.Its core
faculty represent a diversity of departments and programs, including
Anthropology,Communication Studies, Cultural Studies, Global Studies,
Sociology, Languages and Literatures, Journalism and Contemporary
Studies, and Women and Gender Studies.
CAST arises from a commitment to provide an ongoing critical
perspective on social, institutional,and ideological practices that
shape and limit contemporary lives. CAST examines the complexity of
the forces and processes involved in the shaping of culture and
subjectivity. It allows us to examine how power and politics
are necessarily embedded in cultural systems, how categories such as
class, race, gender,sexuality, (dis)ability, and language are socially
constructed, and how meaningful and ethical agency is possible. CAST
aims to encourage critical thinking about the complexities of social
life and to provide a home for nourishing the kind of
thinking,teaching, and learning that fosters more discerning, ethical,
and democratic citizens.
The program has three designated *elds, with elective courses available
in each.
• Globalization,Identity and Social Movements
• Body Politics:Gender, Sexuality, and Embodiment
• Cultural Representation and Social Theory
Wilfrid Laurier University provides competitive funding packages for
graduate study. Fundingfor the MA in CAST typically comes in the form
of scholarships and Teaching Assistantships. Every effort is made to
ensure that TA-ships coincide with the background and/or research of
our MA students in Cultural Studies, Global Studies, Women and Gender
Studies, Communication Studies, and elsewhere.

Colloquium Series - Diaspora and Transnational Studies - University of Toronto
The Centre for Diaspora and Transnational Studies at the University of
Toronto cordially invites you to our research methods colloquium series,
Methods Café. This week's seminar features a discussion of a recently
published book by Prof. Andrea Muehlebach "The Moral Neoliberal: Welfare and
Citizenship in Italy" (2012, The University of Chicago Press).
Discussant comments to be provided by Prof. Tania Li.
The seminar will take place at JHB100A (ground floor) at the Jackman
Humanities Building, 170 St. George.
Andrea Muehlebach and Tania Li
Department of Anthropology, University of Toronto
Discussing "The Moral Neoliberal: Welfare and Citizenship in Italy"
Friday, November 30th
2:00 - 4:00 pm
Abstract for the book:
Set within the shifting landscape of neoliberal welfare reform in the
Lombardy region of Italy and visiting sites from Milanese high schools to
he offices of of social workers to the homes of the poor, "The Moral
Neoliberal" examines the phenomenal rise of voluntarism during Italy's
current withdrawal of social service programs. Mounting a powerful and
paradoxical argument that morality in Italy has become an indispensable
tool for capitalist transformation, Muehlebach explores the state's mass
mobilization of selflessness as a means to cement - and to sometimes also
unintentionally undermine - some of its most controversial reforms.

Fellowship in Ethnographic Writing, Fall 2013 (UTSC)
Fellowship in Ethnographic Writing, Fall 2013
The Centre for Ethnography (CE) at the University of Toronto at
Scarborough (UTSC) is accepting applications for their annual
Fellowship in Ethnographic Writing. Writing is a key component of the
work of an anthropologist, but it takes time and benefits from some
distance from the fieldwork itself, and from other obligations. In
recognition of this fact the CE introduced a Fellowship in
Ethnographic Writing in 2010. We are now seeking applications for the
Fall Term of 2013, to be held at UTSC.
The recipient of this award is expected to devote their time fully to
writing and may not teach or hold any other form of employment during
the tenure of the award. They are expected to attend all talks and
colloquia at the CE, to work several days a week on campus at UTSC,
and to contribute a presentation of their work in progress to the
colloquia. In addition, the Fellow will be available to coach students
completing an undergraduate writing assignment, in tandem with a
professor teaching a core introductory course. This work will be
limited to 5 hours in total.
Applicants should supply a statement of no more than 5 double-spaced
pages describing their writing project, indicating the stage that it
is at, and precisely what they wish to accomplish during the duration
of the Fellowship. Explicit attention to questions of genre,
narrative, and audience are welcome but not essential. Successful
applicants will either be at the post-doctoral stage (engaged in
transforming a thesis into a book or articles) or in the final stages
of completing the doctoral thesis. All applicants must have completed
their doctoral fieldwork and have already submitted significant
portions of their dissertation to their committee. The current stipend
is set at $10,000 for a period of ten weeks.
The closing date for this competition is March 1, 2013. Please send
all applications, as well as the names of two referees, electronically
to the Centre for Ethnography <centreforethnography@utsc.utoronto.ca>.

Centre for Ethnography Talk with Amira Mittermaeir - 28 November
Nov. 28 Centre for Ethnography Talk with Amira Mittermaeir
The Centre for Ethnography (Department of Anthropology, UTSC) will be
holding its final talk for this semester, on Wednesday, 28 November,
1-3pm, at MW 296.
Prof Amira Mittermaeir (University of Toronto)
"Islamic Charity in Egypt: On Ethics and Its Limits"
Prof. Mittermaier is the author of the award-winning book "Dreams that
Matter: Egyptian Landscapes of the Imagination" (2011, University of
California Press).
We look forward to seeing you there!
Abstract: Drawing on fieldwork at one of Cairo's largest charity
organizations, this paper offers a critical engagement with the anthropology
of ethics and morality. Over the past ten years, and even more so since the
uprising in January 2011, thousands of young Egyptians have become involved
in charitable activities. In this paper I reflect on the volunteers' own
understandings of their charitable work. Whereas some describe charitable
giving as inherently ethical (as responding to need and suffering), others
insist that their actions are not for "the poor" but for God. Their goal is
not being ethical but following God's commands. By cultivating a radical
orientedness toward God, they explicitly reject the language of
'amalal-khayr, the "doing of good deeds," and offer a critique of "empathy"
and "compassion." I suggest that this "anti-ethical" stand invites not only
an expansion but also a critical rethinking of the ethical turn in
anthropology.

RA Session // Moments of Suspension, Moments of Transition (Nov 30)
Simone de beauvoir Institute - Upcoming Presentation, Nov. 30
Moments of Suspension, Moments of Transition:
Liminality in the Writings of Katherine Mansfield and Elizabeth Bowen
Emma Short (Newcastle University)
Friday, November 30, 2012 at 2pm
SdBI lounge
(2170 Bishop) MU 203
Free
Writing to her cousin from her room at Queen’s College, London,
Katherine Mansfield recounts a teacher’s dismissal of her as ‘a little
savage from New Zealand,’ thus recognizing the way in which her
colonial status precludes her from truly belonging either to her
now-distant birthplace, or to the Imperial centre of London. As an
Anglo-Irish writer, the site of Elizabeth Bowen’s home is similarly
uncertain. Neither English nor Irish, but a hybrid of both, she, like
Mansfield, does not belong to either country, existing instead in an
unstable, liminal sphere. Bowen’s admiration for Mansfield is
well-documented, and while Bowen was undoubtedly influenced by
Mansfield’s style, technique and talent, this paper foregrounds a
deeper connection between the two authors in their shared, fractured
histories, and in the effect that this had on their writing. Charting
the persistence of in-between spaces across the work of Mansfield and
Bowen, this paper considers the way in which the use of such spaces by
the two writers not only signifies their shared histories of hybridity
and dislocation, but also enables them to interrogate the shifting
existence of women in modernity. Critical work on the respective
output of these writers has noted their fascination with the liminal
spaces of everyday existence (Smith [1999]; Ellmann [2003]).
Staircases, windows, hallways and corridors haunt the fiction of both
authors, alongside the larger, more complex spaces of the hotel and
the boarding-house which exist in between the public chaos of
modernity and the private confines of the domestic. Through engagement
with readings of modernist female subjectivity (Gan [2009]) and with
postcolonial theories of exile and belonging (George [1996]), this
paper reveals the dialogues operating across the writings of Mansfield
and Bowen through the spaces of the in-between.
Emma is the Network Facilitator for the Leverhulme International
Network Approaching War: Childhood Cultures and the First World War,
1880-1920, and a part-time tutor at Newcastle University. She
completed her Ph.D. at Newcastle University in early 2012. Her current
research explores the relationship between subjectivity and space in
women’s written representations of travel in the early twentieth
century. She has published several chapters on the hotel and women’s
travel. She is also co-editor of The Female Figure in Contemporary
Historical Fiction (Palgrave, 2012).

/PREVENTIVE MEDICINE/ CALL FOR POPULATION HEALTH INTERVENTION
RESEARCH PAPERS
/Preventive Medicine/ in collaboration with Guest Editors Mark
Petticrew, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and Louise
Potvin, Universite de Montreal, invite researchers to submit papers on
population health intervention research for a themed section of the
journal.
A working definition of Population Health Intervention Research (PHIR)
is Â"the use of scientific methods to produce knowledge about policy,
program, and resource distribution approaches that operate within or
outside of the health sector and have the potential to impact health
at the population level.Â"
This themed issue will feature conceptual and theoretical papers about
the foundations of PHIR, systematic and realist reviews of literature
on population health interventions and related processes/outcomes, and
research articles describing the processes and/or results of
population health intervention studies using a range of research
designs and methods. We also encourage submissions involving multiple
jurisdictions, sectors, disciplines, and communities in high, middle-
and low-income countries.
For more information, visit the website[8].
/DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: NOVEMBER 30, 2012/
HEALTH SYSTEMS EVIDENCE
A newly enhanced version of Health Systems Evidence[9] has been
launched that gives policymakers, stakeholders and researchers access
to more comprehensive evidence on how to strengthen or reform health
systems. The service now contains complete inventories of economic
evaluations of health system reforms published since 2007,

REPORT ON THE STATE OF PUBLIC HEALTH IN CANADA
The Report on the State of Public Health in Canada, 2012: Influencing
Health – The Importance of Sex and Gender[11] was tabled in
Parliament on October 26, 2012.
It explores the influence of sex and gender on public health and the
health status of Canadians. Differences in health experienced by men,
women, boys and girls can be attributed to biological diversity as
well as the social roles and responsibilities assumed by each of us.
As a society we need to better understand how sex and gender interact
with other determinants of health. Policy makers need to consider
gender-based evidence when making decisions on programs and
initiatives to support more effective and efficient health outcomes.
There is a wealth of experience and knowledge in Canada, and around
the world, and there are opportunities for positive change. Throughout
the report, there are many examples of what is working well and the
differences we can make in the lives of Canadians. Collectively we can
influence our health and create a better and healthier future for all
Canadians.

Invitation à présenter des articles de recherche interventionnelle en
santé des populations pour la revue Preventive Medicine
La revue Preventive Medicine, en collaboration avec les rédacteurs en
chef invités, Mark Petticrew, de la London School of Hygiene and
Tropical Medicine, et Louise Potvin, de l'Université de Montréal,
invitent les chercheurs à soumettre un article de recherche
interventionnelle en santé des populations (RISP), pour une section de
la revue consacrée à ce sujet.
Selon une définition pratique de la recherche interventionnelle en
santé des populations, la RISP « nécessite le recours à des méthodes
scientifiques pour produire des connaissances sur les interventions en
matière de politiques, de programmes et d'approches de répartition des
ressources qui sont effectuées à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur du
secteur de la santé et qui peuvent avoir un impact sur la santé des
populations ».
Ce numéro à thème présentera des articles conceptuels et théoriques
sur le fondement de la RISP, des examens systématiques et réalistes de
la littérature sur les interventions en santé des populations et des
processus et résultats connexes, ainsi que des articles de recherche
décrivant les processus et/ou les résultats des études
interventionnelles en santé des populations au moyen d'une vaste gamme
de plans et de méthodes de recherche. Nous encourageons également la
présentation d'articles de plusieurs régions, secteurs, disciplines et
communautés, et ce, des pays à revenu élevé, intermédiaire et faible.
Pour plus d'informations, veuillez consulter le site web (en anglais

Date limite de soumission : le 30 novembre 2012
Health Systems Evidence
Une nouvelle version améliorée de Health Systems Evidence (anglais
seulement) vient tout juste d'être lancée. Cette nouvelle version
offre aux responsables de politiques, aux parties prenantes et aux
chercheurs un accès à des données probantes encore plus complètes sur
les façons de renforcer ou réformer les systèmes de santé. Le service
comprend maintenant des inventaires complets d'évaluations économiques
sur des réformes du système de santé publiées depuis 2007, des
descriptions de systèmes de santé de partout à travers le monde, et
des descriptions de réformes de la santé. Pour plus de détails sur le
lancement, veuillez consulter le site web (anglais seulement).
Rapport de l'administrateur en chef de la santé publique au Canada
Que le 26 octobre 2012, la Rapport de l'administrateur en chef de la
santé publique au Canada 2012 : Le sexe et le genre – Leur influence
importante sur la santé a été présenté au Parlement.
Il explore l'influence du sexe et du genre sur la santé publique et
l'état de santé des Canadiens. Les différences sur le plan de l'état
de santé des hommes, des femmes, des garçons et des filles peuvent
être attribuées à la diversité biologique ainsi qu'aux responsabilités
et aux rôles sociaux de chacun.
En tant que société, nous devons comprendre davantage comment le sexe
et le genre interagissent avec d'autres déterminants de la santé. Les
décideurs doivent tenir compte des données liées au sexe et au genre
au moment de prendre des décisions concernant les programmes et les
initiatives à mettre en œuvre en vue de trouver des façons plus
efficientes et efficaces d'améliorer la santé des Canadiens.
L'expérience et les connaissances – au Canada comme à l'étranger –
peuvent donner lieu à des changements positifs. Le rapport contient de
nombreux exemples de ce qui fonctionne bien et présente les
différences que nous pouvons apporter dans la vie des Canadiens.
Ensemble, nous pouvons agir pour améliorer notre santé et assurer un
avenir meilleur et plus sain pour tous les Canadiens.

/PREVENTIVE MEDICINE/ CALL FOR POPULATION HEALTH INTERVENTION
RESEARCH PAPERS
/Preventive Medicine/ in collaboration with Guest Editors Mark
Petticrew, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and Louise
Potvin, Universite de Montreal, invite researchers to submit papers on
population health intervention research for a themed section of the
journal.
A working definition of Population Health Intervention Research (PHIR)

program, and resource distribution approaches that operate within or
outside of the health sector and have the potential to impact health
at the population level.Â"
This themed issue will feature conceptual and theoretical papers about
the foundations of PHIR, systematic and realist reviews of literature
on population health interventions and related processes/outcomes, and
research articles describing the processes and/or results of
population health intervention studies using a range of research
designs and methods. We also encourage submissions involving multiple
jurisdictions, sectors, disciplines, and communities in high, middle-
and low-income countries.

REPORT ON THE STATE OF PUBLIC HEALTH IN CANADA
The Report on the State of Public Health in Canada, 2012: Influencing
Health – The Importance of Sex and Gender[11] was tabled in

It explores the influence of sex and gender on public health and the

As a society we need to better understand how sex and gender interact

There is a wealth of experience and knowledge in Canada, and around

differences we can make in the lives of Canadians. Collectively we can
influence our health and create a better and healthier future for all
Canadians.
