    Power(s) in Palestine

    Over the past two decades a great deal of research on the question of Palestine has pointed to a fragmentation of the Palestinian political landscape, divisions exacerbated by the Oslo Accords. The ensuing establishment of the Palestinian Authority (PA), in particular, fostered the emergence of new political dynamics and new sources of power and legitimacy, embodied in the conflict between Fatah and Hamas that has dominated Palestinian politics since 2007. The creation of the PA also encouraged a process of capital accumulation and a restructuring of social classes after 1993. Moreover, the dispersion of Palestinians across the world, the superposition of national and international legal realities and the diversity of actors in the conflict have contributed to the multiplication of sources and resources of power. This complex set of factors has prompted questions regarding new sources, mechanisms and flows of power in Palestine, as well as resultant dynamics.

    The French-speaking world: the space of transnational circulation in a global, connected world (late 19th-20th centuries)

    Présente sur tous les continents, sans exception, et progressivement institutionnalisée à partir des années 1960, la francophonie doit être interrogée dans ses multiples interactions, culturelles, mais aussi économiques, politiques, stratégiques et militaires. En effet, les enjeux, les choix voire les dominations linguistiques ou culturelles s'appuient aussi sur la défense d'intérêts politiques, stratégiques, économiques et commerciaux. Espace de circulations transnationales et de confrontations, la francophonie doit s'appréhender historiquement dans la diversité de ses acteurs, associatifs, gouvernementaux et intergouvernementaux, parlementaires, scientifiques, médiatiques, artistiques, issus des collectivités territoriales ou de la société civile. Fondé sur ces questions de base, ce colloque de la revue Relations internationales a vocation à étudier l’histoire de la francophonie, de la fin du XIXe siècle à nos jours, des réseaux, des échanges et des institutions que le partage de la langue française a produits, mais aussi des tensions et des crises qu'elle a fait naître ou qu'elle a eu à gérer.

    Italy and Yugoslavia in the Interwar Period

    Monographic issue of “Qualestoria. Rivista di storia contemporanea”

    The signing of the Treaty of Rapallo in 1920 made it possible to find a solution to the Italian-Yugoslav dispute over the north-eastern Adriatic border, a solution that would last substantially until the Italian invasion of the neighbouring kingdom in World War 2. Relations between Italy and Yugoslavia, particularly since the end of the 1920s, with the beginning of the more decidedly revisionist phase of fascist foreign policy regarding the structures of the Danubian-Balkan area, were never easy. However, the signing of the Treaty of Rapallo represented an undoubtedly important moment, which greatly contributed to restore a climate of collaboration between the two countries, heavily jeopardized by border nationalism and by the D’Annunzio’s “impresa di Fiume”, interrupted precisely by the Treaty of Rapallo.

    Crossing borders and Latin America

    Nous souhaiterions réfléchir lors de ce colloque sur l’Amérique latine transfrontalière autant du point de vue des échanges et des apports mutuels, littéraires et artistiques, que des enjeux concernant les différents facteurs (culturels, géopolitiques, environnementaux, économiques) ayant une incidence dans la construction-destruction de murs et le contrôle des flux (personnes, capital, marchandises).

    Twenty Years Later: Looking Back at 9/11

    Twenty years after the 9/11 attacks, the Universities of Toulouse (CAS) and Montpellier (EMMA) in the South of France are joining forces to organize an international interdisciplinary conference on these events. Its aim is to analyze, not only the events and their short-term consequences with a two-decade hindsight, but also the many ways in which those events have been perceived, represented, commented upon, co-opted or rewritten along the years. It also invites reflections upon the way in which some of these responses, representations or co-optations have been in their turn received, commented upon and used in this 20-year period.

    Commemorating in a global world

    "L’Espace Politique" journal, no.42 (2020-3)

    Ce numéro spécial de la revue L'Espace Politique questionne la commémoration sous l'angle géographique et géopolitique. Alors que s’achève le centenaire de la première guerre mondiale, nous souhaitons interroger à nouveaux frais le phénomène commémoratif et les politiques mémorielles, dont l’étude connait un certain renouvellement (Garcia, 2001, Kesteloot C., Van Ypersele L., 2016). La commémoration recouvre une grande diversité de pratiques loin de se restreindre à la mémoire des guerres (Ashplant, 2000, West, 2016) ou des grandes figures nationales (par exemple incarnées par les panthéonisations en France). Ce numéro pourra ainsi s’ouvrir à une approche élargie du phénomène commémoratif.

    Religion and transnational migrations (19th-20th centuries)

    Study day of the French Association for Contemporary Religious History

    Depuis vingt-cinq ans, la question migratoire est prégnante dans le discours politique et médiatique, suscitant débat, interrogation, mais aussi travaux scientifiques. Si les chercheurs ont investi ce champ d’étude, l’analyse des interactions du phénomène avec le religieux est plus récente, mais souligne la place centrale qu’a pu occuper la religion dans les processus migratoires – aux origines de la migration, comme support de celle-ci, comme ressource à la fois spirituelle et sociale pour les déplacés –, et les transformations du religieux qu’ils induisent. La réflexion historique sur les articulations entre religion et migration dans le cadre transnational est à même de compléter ces travaux des sociologues, anthropologues, géographes et théologiens. On considèrera les grands mouvements de population à l’époque contemporaine (XIXe - XXe s.), forcés ou volontaires, sans exclure l’exil ni les migrations plus ponctuelles.

    ReThinking Europe in Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea Region

    The 11th annual international conference on Nordic and Baltic Studies

    Brexit has just happened and its consequences are not yet fully comprehended. Would the outcome be a return to a status quo ante the Brentry of 1 January 1973 in British-EU relations? Would Britain become a sort of bigger Norway tightly connected to the EU, but yet not fully a member of the united organization? Would Britain really continue to exist as such? Would Scotland, not to mention other territories, emulate London and decide on their own Brexit, this time from the United Kingdom, in order to rejoin the EU? Would actually Brexit become a pathway for other skeptical EU nations? Would Brexit rocket exclusive forms of nationalisms? Would the whole of united Europe collapse, on the long run, as a result of Brexit as the League of Nations had become toothless after the US Senate had vetoed the Pact of League of Nations? But what effect is going to have Brexit on Scandinavian countries which historically have been closely connected to Britain? How is it reflected in Scandinavian intellectual milieus, in mass-media, in public discourses? What about the Baltic states which received a strong support from Britain in key moments of their history, for instance when Royal Navy came at the rescue of Estonian and Latvian independence following World War I or in the process of re-enactment of Baltic sovereignty after the collapse of the Soviet Union?

    Internationalism(s) and education during the Cold War

    Actors, rivalries and circulations

    Not much research has been focused on educational internationalism, as it developed during the Cold War. Yet, this period provides an exceptional framework for understanding the evolution and metamorphosis of the processes of internationalization of knowledge and educational practices, whether in the school sphere or in the extra-curricular environment. Driven by a multitude of national, international, and imperial actors, these are articulated through the ideological confrontation between the blocs of the East and the West, but also through the challenges posed by European integration, decolonization, the emergence of "third worldism" and the attempts to regulate international relations (maintenance of peace and security, etc.). Therefore, the aim of this conference is to lay the foundations for a global history of educational internationalism, tracing its forms, its trajectories (North-South, East-West, South-South), as well as its impact on the political framework and the balance of power determined by the “global Cold War”.

    Justin Trudeau: Review and Assessment of Four Years in Office

    "Études Canadiennes / Canadian Studies" Journal n°89, December 2020

    Upon obtaining power in 2015, the Liberals promised a radical departure from Conservative orientations, especially with regard to social and foreign policy, as well as a firm commitment toward reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. Following the party’s reelection (albeit as a minority government) in October 2019, the time has come for a comprehensive review of the Liberals’ first mandate under Trudeau. Études Canadiennes/Canadian Studies therefore solicits papers examining various aspects of these first four years in power, relating to the aforementioned policy areas, or others. Did the Liberals succeed in significantly re-orienting Canadian policy toward their preferred objectives?

    Christina, Queen of Sweden at the crossroads

    L'université de Bourgogne (laboratoire CPTC), en collaboration avec l'Assocation Christine de Suède, organise un colloque international sur le thème « Christine de Suède à la croisée des chemins » les 5-7 octobre 2020 à Dijon. Nous voudrions nous pencher ici sur cette « matière de Christine de Suède », de façon comparatiste et transversale, sans exclusive. L’idée maitresse de notre réflexion sera celle d’une Christine de Suède « à la croisée des chemins » : croisée des chemins européens (elle est passé à Dijon, ce dont le colloque se souviendra), personnage entre les « genders », personnage entre les « genres », personnage entre les savoirs.
