The Press team

The operation of the Press is based on a collegial organization with dual scientific management (scientific co-direction and Press committee) and editorial management (editorial management and editorial team).

The scientific management of the Press is carried out jointly by Julie Duvigneau and Nicolas Élias.

The Press committee is made up of 16 Inalco teacher-researchers joined by 6 external members, who manage the various collections. It meets between four and six times a year to examine book projects submitted to it.

The editorial team consists of Étienne Cayeux (administrative and editorial manager), Chloé Bonnier and Laetitia Mussard (publisher).
