  5th International "Language and Territory" Colloquium

  This multidisciplinary colloquium will discuss the different ways that languages and territories are linked, and will show the political, social and economic stakes that arise from the relationships between them. Above all, these terms refer to men and women with their social practices and representations, at the core of the logic of territoriality. New territories give rise to new language practices, which, in turn, create new spaces, discourse and meaning. The "boundaries" we draw between languages and territories are permeable in time and space, depending on factors such as population displacement, language policies, linguistic and social representations, education, mass media and socio-cultural values.

  Call for papers - Sociology

  The Third Social Sex

  The journal Socio is launching a call for papers on the theme of the “third social sex” (or the third gender). This call for papers is being made to challenge the excessive efforts by contemporary Western social movements to politicize sexual and gender orientation, and to challenge the confusion surrounding debates over gender and sex (Saladin d’Anglure, 1985, 2012, 2014). We are asking for reflection, specifically: on the history of movements that involve individuals of the third social sex and the various situations that these movements cover; on the legal transformations of the status of the third social sex in the world (comparative approaches are particularly welcome); on the artistic and literary representations of the third sex; on Western scientific colonialism and its binary logic, as a source of exclusions, misunderstandings, and  conflicts; on the third social sex and the ancient logic of “third parties included,” still existing today among many peoples, like the Inuit, other North and South American Indigenous peoples, or in the Taoist Chinese tradition, etc. (Saladin d’Anglure, 2015). These logics help these different peoples overcome the complexities of life and human society (Berthoz, 2013).
