Call for papers - Ethnology, anthropology
The goal of this Workshop is to document how the coronavirus pandemic is affecting tourism, including its industry, holiday practices, travel imaginations or tourist’s representations. It will question the transformations in mobility and migrations as the pandemic leads to the closure of airports and restricts travel: how does that affect privileged ultra-privileged mobilites, holiday practices, their motivations and justifications. We will also question what this pandemic reveals about the manufacture of travel imaginations from the perspective of the transport and hotel industry and travelers, and the evolution of the representations of the foreign tourist, who in a few weeks have gone from objects of desire to subjects of contamination.

Journal Temporalités No. 32 (2020/2)
From a multidisciplinary perspective, we wish to bring together in this special issue contributions that deal explicitly with the times and temporalities of migration. Although "time" is often used in the titles of articles or books on migration, it must be noted that this concept of time often remains in a state of illustration. The last book on migration that used the term "temporalities" stated that "temporalities are a common entry point in the approach to international migration, but often remain only an implicit or even unthought dimension of it" (Baby-Collin et al. 2017b). Yet, with this stimulating work, the authors attempt to broaden the diachronic and sequential thinking on migration to include a multiplicity of social times (Gurvitch), questions relating to circulation, generations, representations and memory.

Mobilisations of sexual minorities and gender outside the "Global North"
(De)politisation, transnational circulations and resistances
L'objet de cette session est de présenter des recherches empiriques cherchant à dépasser le paradigme de la simple « imposition » – d'identités, de formulation de causes, de modes d'action – de "l'Occident" vers le reste du monde, pour produire des analyses plus complexes des dynamiques à l'oeuvre. La session sera l'occasion de mener une réflexion plus globale sur des phénomènes circulatoires qui traversent l'ensemble des terrains étudiés, et qui touchent à la fois le champ de l'étude des mouvements sociaux et celui, de façon plus originale, des relations internationales.

Diplomacy of the city in the Latin, Islamic and Byzantium worlds (12th-16th centuries)
I - The norms and statutes of urban negotiation
La première rencontre, organisée par le Centre d'études médiévales de Montpellier (CEMM), vise à étudier le développement d’un droit d’ambassade. Le statut de la diplomatie et des ambassadeurs a en effet été abordé essentiellement « par le haut », c’est-à-dire à partir des manifestations des pouvoirs princiers ; aucune enquête d’envergure ne s’est préoccupée de la façon dont les villes géraient leurs relations extérieures.

Island Cities and Urban Archipelagos
The ‘Island Cities and Urban Archipelagos’ conference explores the culture, economy, and politics of towns and cities based on islands worldwide. It considers common attributes of island cities, the influence of island status on urban development, and how and why different island cities have developed in different ways. Throughout history, islands have been sites of urban development. Physical separation from the mainland, spatial limitations, and maritime tradition facilitate transport of products and ideas, defence infrastructure, construction of social capital, consolidation of power, formation of cultures, and concentration of population.

The real estate and governance of food in urban regions
Second UFN international conference
L’IUFN (International Urban Food Network) lance un appel à contributions destiné à la communauté scientifique internationale sur la place de la question du foncier liée à la gouvernance alimentaire des régions urbaines. Cet appel à contributions s’intéresse aux terres qui nourrissent nos villes et au foncier, défini comme l'ensemble des rapports entre les hommes pour l'accès et le contrôle de la terre et la gestion des ressources naturelles. Il s’intéresse non seulement à la terre qui produit les ressources alimentaires dont se nourrissent nos villes, mais également au foncier sur lequel repose l’ensemble du système alimentaire urbain, de la production, la transformation, les activités d’approvisionnement et la gestion des déchets alimentaires des villes. Il s’intéresse donc à l’ensemble de ce que nous appelons le foncier alimentaire.

Architecture and the space of information, intellect and action
The International Conference on Analogous Spaces interrogates the analogy between spaces in which knowledge is preserved, organized, transferred or activated. Although these spaces may differ in material, virtual, or operational ways, there are resemblances if one examines their ‘structure,’ ‘form’ and ‘architecture’. How do these spaces co-exist and interrelate? The conference will be organized around three main themes: 1. The first theme explores spatial analogies in terms of social and intellectual networks. 2. The second theme deals with the space of knowledge and memory. 3. The third theme explores the space required for speed, action and decision making.
