Seeing Politics through Intermediation and Intermediaries

This seminar proposes to look at politics through the lens of political intermediaries and what they do, i.e. intermediation. Intermediaries can be defined as an assorted group of actors (political brokers, political parties, interest groups, movements) who acts as a hinge between two or more levels, actors or social institutions; while intermediation , as a process, encompasses all the mediations that these actors perform in order to keep the political system intact (Zaremberg, Guarneros-Meza, and Lavalle 2017; Gunther, Puhle, and Montero 2007; Kitschelt 2004; Smith 2007). The question we are interested in relates to the transformations in the roles of these agents and processes of mediation since the neo-liberal transformation has engulfed the processes of public policy formulation, contestation and enactment.

Student movements and (post-)colonial emancipations

Transnational itineraries, dialogues and programmes

This one-day conference investigates the role of student movements in individual and collective emancipations, from the struggle for colonial liberation to the challenges posed by contemporary globalisation. This conference seeks to bring these various approaches together, in order to discuss the transnational and connected history of student engagements in colonial liberations and the critical reflection on the multilateral management of conflicts in the postcolonial period. It will investigate internal and external tensions, and the reorganisation of these movements in relation to pacifism, revolutionary struggle, conflict prevention and peace making.

Démocratie contestée

Contestation et participation dans le monde anglophone

The dissent and uprisings that spread through the Arab world during the Spring of 2011 occurred almost a quarter of a century after the fall of East European political régimes that saw the rise of "democracy" modeled on the Anglo-American representative system. This specific context which has come to characterize the past quarter of century calls for a renewed analysis of the models these political systems represent and of the processes that triggered them and led to their long-term establishment in the UK and the US.Since the 1990s, as a response to the story of the inevitable emergence of democracy in the aftermath of the Cold War, researchers on North American politics have provided an alternative reading of events: that of a "contested democracy".

Histoires de l'oubli dans les mondes francophones et anglophone, XIXe-XXIe siècle

Ce colloque propose d'examiner le rapport paradoxal entre l’histoire et l'oubli pour explorer, dans une perspective civilisationniste et comparatiste, les lacunes dans la mémoire collective et les épisodes occultés, perdus ou écartés du récit historique : ces « histoires oubliées » susceptibles de définir la communauté nationale, locale ou diasporique tout autant que l'histoire officielle ou les hauts lieux de mémoire. Comment rendre compte de la persistance de certains souvenirs collectifs et des silences qui entourent d'autres ? L’objectif est d’analyser les processus et mécanismes qui conduisent vers la perte du passé, la non-inscription ou transmission de la mémoire communicative, voire sa suppression, et d'étudier les formes de l'oubli afin de sonder leurs enjeux historiographiques et politiques.

Multiculturalism, modernity and citizenship in Canada

Interdisciplinary Conference in Canadian Studies

From the 1990s on, the Canadian multicultural discourse has increasingly focused on the concept of citizenship, which has in turn meant insisting more on the notion of unity and less on that of diversity. Should this be interpreted as a step backward from multiculturalism taken as an ideology and as a policy? From a European perspective, what lessons can be learnt at a time when a growing number of countries are adopting a multicultural terminology and the European Union needs to negotiate a balance between unity and diversity? Should the emergence of a modern form of citizenship be interpreted as the advent of hybrid identities or as a step towards a certain social and cultural anomy? What are then the prospects for multiple identities within a plural nation?
