This project aims to create an innovative institutional instrument , capable to respond to public calls for research funding, in order to become economically and institutionnaly autonomous; to create an innovative platform of mutualization of knowledge in its theoretical and empirical dimensions ; consequently, the final objective of this project is the creation of a center of excellence for Social Sciences research and teaching.
