Émilie Biland-Curinier combines sociology and political science to study how organizations and professional groups take part to the unequal dynamics that reshape contemporary societies. At the crossroads of critical policy analysis and socio-legal studies, she takes interest in the mechanisms that frame individuals in their family life (marital separations, parentage) and in their professional experiences (hiring paths, pandemic law). Her work underlines the causes and consequences of these processes in terms of class, gender, sexual and racial hierarchies.

Thesis of sociology : "Investir un travail fragmenté : l'écriture scénaristique en actes".
Dir : Gwenaële Rot

Olivier Pilmis’ current work proposes an economic sociology that draws on the sociologies of risk, of labour and professions, and of science and technology. It focuses on how individuals and organisations deal with uncertainty, by inquiring into the ways they anticipate general movements in the economy. Every economic crisis, from the Great Depression in the 1930s to the crisis brought on by the lockdown in 2020, by way of the Great Recession of 2008, underscores the impossibility of unravelling the mysteries of the economy’s future.
