LEPOSH
Jean-Noël Ferrié is a sociologist and political scientist, director of research at the CNRS, director of Sciences-Po Rabat, the Institute of Political Studies at the International University of Rabat, and coordinator of the CNRS International Associate Laboratory: Inequalities, Development and Political Equilibria (IDE).
The Laboratoire d'études politiques et de sciences humaines et sociales (LEPOSH) is directed by Jean-Noël Ferrié, Director of Research at the CNRS (UMR PACTE/UIR), and includes lecturers from three UIR establishments, including Sciences-Po Rabat, an IRD researcher, associate researchers, PhD students and interns.
The laboratory's political and social science activities are divided into three main areas
Mediterranean migration
(headed by Prof. Mehdi Alioua), dealing with both migrants' journeys and the public policies aimed at them
Religions and religious dynamics
(headed by Prof. Farid El Asri), dealing with the dynamics of Islam in Africa, the Middle East and Europe.
Public policy and social cohesion
(in charge of Prof. Zineb Omary), dealing with public social policies from a comparative perspective - Africa, Europe - and in particular their impact on social cohesion and human development.
In addition, LEPOSHS members are involved in two CNRS instruments for which Sciences Po Grenoble - UGA and UIR are also the supervisors:
CNRS International Associate Laboratory (LIA): "Inequalities, development and political equilibria
Jean-Noël Ferrié is in charge. This Laboratory studies public social policies aimed at combating inequalities from the point of view of their efficiency and accessibility, as well as their contribution to the maintenance of the socio-political order. It brings together economists, political scientists, sociologists and anthropologists.
The CNRS International Research Group (GDRI): "Aging in Africa".
The leader is Enguerran Macia (CNRS-UMI 3189, Dakar). This research group works on all aspects of ageing in Africa, including public health and social protection policies, and the articulation of public and private solidarity. It is in this capacity that LEPOSHS researchers participate.
