Mississippi Delta Communities Facing Disappearing Land
"Still on the Map!" takes as its context the Mississippi Delta fifteen years after Hurricane Katrina and about five years after the commissioning of the major new "100-year" flood protection infrastructure. Expressed from its title -a statement of resistance/resilience chanted by many inhabitants during ecological events in Louisiana- this research project aims to describe the links and "attachments" (LATOUR, 2017) that different communities in the delta maintain with their geographical environment in a situation of strong ecological tipping point, integrating the natural and artificial infrastructures of the watershed into the definition of ecosystems as socio-political actors in their own right. In a context where the delta's land is gradually sinking into the sea, every hour the surface area of a football pitch is permanently flooded.

Carlos Brignardello grants in archaeology 2019
L’archéologue liménien Carlos Brignardello Radulescu s'est passionné pour l'histoire et les cultures andines. Les travaux de recherche de cet autodidacte éclairé sont publiés dans deux ouvrages : Simbología prehispánica del paisaje, qui traite de la géographie sacrée du Pérou préhispanique et est dédié à son mentor Arturo Jiménez Borja, et Desiertos vivos, édité par Walter Alva et consacré au désert côtier péruvien, son paysage de prédilection. Ses explorations des quebradas des vallées du Lurín et du Rímac lui ont notamment permis de documenter la présence de géoglyphes. Il disparaît en 2004 et fait de l’Institut français d’études andines (IFEA) son légataire universel en souhaitant que sa demeure devienne son siège. Avec la création de la « Bourse Carlos Brignardello », l’IFEA respecte une volonté clairement exprimée dans le testament, en promouvant la recherche en archéologie au Pérou.

Geneva
Scholarship, prize and job offer - Ethnology, anthropology
The project “Gangs, Gangsters, and Ganglands: Towards a Global Comparative Ethnography” (GANGS) aims to develop a systematic comparative investigation of global gang dynamics, to better understand why they emerge, how they evolve over time, whether they are associated with particular urban configurations, how and why individuals join gangs, and what impact this has on their potential futures. It draws on ethnographic research carried out in Nicaragua, South Africa, and France, adopting an explicitly tripartite focus on “Gangs”, “Gangsters”, and “Ganglands” in order to better explore the interplay between group, individual, and contextual factors. The first will consider the organisational dynamics of gangs, the second will focus on individual gang members and their trajectories before, during, and after their involvement in a gang, while the third will reflect on the contexts within which gangs emerge and evolve.
