Created in 2020, the Laboratoire interdisciplinaire Mutations des espaces économiques et politiques - Paris-Saclay (LIMEEP-PS) (Interdisciplinary Laboratory Changes of Economic and political Spaces - Paris-Saclay) is part of the Human and Social Sciences field. The LIMEEP-PS gathers, on the one side, researchers members of the University of Versailles Saint Quentin (UVSQ) and of the University of Evry Val d’Essonne (UEVE), and, on the other side, associated researchers belonging to the private (consulting firms) and public (local authorities) sectors. The team is made up of members representing different disciplines: geography, economics, history, law, and urbanism.
Based on geographic, economic and political objects, and/or on key-concepts, the research conducted at the LIMEEP-PS leads to the organization of annual seminars, under the title “Capitalism, Globalization, Ecologic Transition”.
