Organizing Committee

 
Carlo Barone, Full professor at Sciences Po - CRIS and Director of the Educational Policies Group at Sciences Po - LIEPP (Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Evaluation of Public Policies).
His work focuses on social inequalities in education, returns to education and social mobility. He has carried out several field experiments in schools to assess the role of information and behavioral barriers as mechanisms of inequality.

Bastian Betthäuser, Assistant Professor, Sciences Po - CRIS
Bastian Betthäuser’s research focuses on social inequality, how it accumulates over the life-course and how it is transmitted across generations. More specifically, he investigates (1) how different dimensions of individuals’ socio-economic background shape their development in early childhood, education, labour market position and life chances, (2) through which micro-level mechanisms these different social background characteristics affect important social outcomes and (3) whether and how education and labour market policies and social interventions at the meso- and macro-level can limit the extent to which individuals’ life chances depend on their social background.

Philippe Coulangeon, Senior Researcher, Sciences Po - CRIS, CNRS
Philippe Coulangeon’s research lies at the intersection of cultural sociology and the sociology of inequalities and social classes. His work focuses on the social stratification of cultural practices and tastes (especially musical), and investigates issues of cultural democratization. Coulangeon has also studied artistic professions and careers.

Ettore Recchi, Full professor at Sciences Po - CRIS and Visiting Fellow at the Migration Policy Centre, EUI, Florence
Recchi’s core research agenda revolves around issues of human mobility, investigating the drivers and consequences surrounding the unique expansion of individuals’ movements in space of our age. He questions the existential, political, sociocultural and environmental sustainability of spatial mobility through micro- and macro-sociological empirical analyses.
