    Monasteries and religious communities in the Alps from the Middle Ages to the present day

    History, landscape, architecture and enhancement of cultural heritage

    Volume 31/2026 of Histoire des Alpes – Storia delle Alpi – Geschichte der Alpen wishes to dedicate its Dossier to the theme of monasteries and religious communities in the Alpine region. While the history of regular communities was largely investigated from the second half of the 19th century until the first years of the 20th century, in particular thanks to the impetus of members of the clergy who devoted themselves to collecting, transcribing and translating archives, as well as publishing monographs, there has been a revival of interest in this subject over the last few decades in the Alps and Pre-Alps, driven in particular by archaeologists, by the diversification of issues concerning the religious world and, locally, by the desire of the public authorities to broaden the range of the tourism offer by promoting local heritage.

    The European space. Geo-economic balances and State powers in the long run

    In the construction of the European space(s) a crucial role has been played by economic actors and relations, which often overpass national borders and intertwin with the nature and roles of political powers and national States. Even well before the last globalization (or re-globalization), traditional government systems were pressed by the internationalization of economies: by centrifugal pushes, the need for external resources, or the emergence of new actors on the international stage in economic, technical, and social fields, that have increasingly influenced both the private and the public life. In more recent times, then, a new institutional framework developed at the supranational, European, level getting new functions and involving actors, such as trade unions, charities, business interests, scientific institutions, and churches, reinforcing the dynamics of cooperation, integration, and convergence beyond national borders.

    The “civilisation du journal” in the Mediterranean from the Late Eighteenth Century to the World War I

    L’objectif de ce colloque international est d’approfondir la connaissance des formes prises par la « civilisation du journal » qui s’est développée à partir de la fin du XVIIIe siècle, et jusqu’à la première guerre mondiale, dans les espaces méditerranéens qui, sans avoir été précurseurs, ont aussi connu un grand développement journalistique. L’approche se veut sociale, culturelle et matérielle, dans la lignée d’un renouvellement historiographique récent des études sur la presse, afin de saisir la manière dont les journaux ont été produits et les entreprises de presse gérées, de saisir toutes les formes de circulations et pratiques journalistiques et d’interroger le rapport de ces journaux à l’image.

    International migrations and labour from the 70s to the present

    Since the 70s the presence of migrants in Europe, and especially in Italy, has become a structural issue and has been at the center of the public and political debate. The progressive demolition of welfare systems, the job precariousness, and new consumer lifestyles have generated different responses in terms of regulation of the admissions of foreign citizens in search of a job and their management (housing issues, access to health care, etc.). Both with regard to organization of forms of protection of immigrants in the exercise of theirs fundamental rights, especially in cases of serious discrimination and exploitation (immigrant associations, trade union action, etc.).

    The other front - conflict without combat in Italian rearguard towns

    Le conflit sans combats dans les villes italiennes de l'arrière

    Ce colloque international et interdisciplinaire souhaite se concentrer sur les territoires épargnés par les combats et sur le sort de la grande communauté des non-combattants plutôt que sur les opérations militaires et le quotidien des hommes au front. Il sera notamment consacré aux villes italiennes de l’arrière et à leur vie culturelle, restée intense durant la Grande Guerre.

    Between home, family and business

    Unpaid family and work obligations for the market from the end of the Middle Ages to the contemporary era

    Ce colloque constitue une occasion de bilan des débats et d’approfondissement des nouvelles pistes thématiques ouvertes lors des rencontres précédentes du programme « Travail en famille, travail non rémunéré. Formes et acteurs du travail domestique productif en Europe (XVe-XXIe siècle) ». Le colloque portera, en premier lieu, sur les obligations légales, familiales et plus largement sociales liées aux activités marchandes effectuées par les membres de la famille dans la sphère domestique. En deuxième lieu, il a pour but de donner des aperçus qualitatifs et quantitatifs sur les retombées matérielles et immatérielles des multiples formes du travail en famille non rémunéré pour le marché. La dimension domestique ou extra-domestique des activités exercées par les différents membres de la famille sera analysée en fonction de leur caractère marchand et des différentes formes de leur (éventuelle) rémunération. La frontière entre prestations dues et travail impliquant une rétribution est cependant loin d’être nette et définie, ce que les débats autour du concept même de travail et de salaire, pour les époques anciennes comme pour celles contemporaines, montrent efficacement.

    Great officers in the Angers region

    Questo primo convegno del progetto Europange, che si occupa dello studio e dell’informatizzazione degli ufficiali angioini, si propone di tornare su un tema chiave nello studio degli ufficiali angioini, che tuttavia ha ricevuto un’attenzione limitata in tempi recenti: i grandi ufficiali del Regno o gli ufficiali sovralocali. Mentre per alcune aree come la Provenza (i siniscalchi) si può disporre di studi aggiornati o comunque di un quadro complessivo dei meccanismi di funzionamento, per altre, come la Toscana o la Morea, si sa davvero pochissimo. Si tratta dunque di indagare in chiave comparativa una fondamentale cinghia di trasmissione tra il sovrano e gli ufficiali locali per il governo dei territori inclusi nello spazio angioino, attraverso cui si possono cogliere le diversità, ma eventualmente anche le analogie o addirittura i modelli nelle differenti aree della presenza angioina.

    Unusual actors

    Forms and effects of the informal action in the Caribbean, between legality and illegality (XVII-XXI century)

    What is the role of informal institutions in the evolution of the economic, political and social aspects of Caribbean basin? Diacronie will analyze the economic and social development of the area, focusing on the role played by informal actors, namely the ones moving between legality and illegality, that were able (or are able) to give the individual (no matter if a customer, consumer or merchant) what the laws prohibit. The objective is to examine both contemporary phenomena and phenomena which, although related to the early modern age, have generated long-term consequences in the history of the regions related to it.
