Call for papers - History

Debt, Democracy, Citizenship

A Political History of Public Debts (Europe and the United States, since the Late Eighteenth Century)

This is call for papers for a symposium to be held in Paris in June 2013. Its main theme is a political history of public debts since the end of the eighteenth century. Organized as a workshop, this symposium aims to explore the public debt as the locus for political debates and conflicts. Our goal is to bring together various case studies, using different approaches, but all analyzing aspects of the link between politics (especially in its social or participative dimensions) and the indebtedness of states. This should help shed new light on such central concepts for our understanding of the modern political world as sovereignty, citizenship, democracy, and solidarity.

Contested Democracy:

Contestation and Participation in the English-speaking World

The dissent and uprisings that spread through the Arab world during the Spring of 2011 occurred almost a quarter of a century after the fall of East European political régimes that saw the rise of "democracy" modeled on the Anglo-American representative system. This specific context which has come to characterize the past quarter of century calls for a renewed analysis of the models these political systems represent and of the processes that triggered them and led to their long-term establishment in the UK and the US.Since the 1990s, as a response to the story of the inevitable emergence of democracy in the aftermath of the Cold War, researchers on North American politics have provided an alternative reading of events: that of a "contested democracy".

Gender, ethnicity and religions: comparative Maghrebi migrations

Comparison between France-Quebec migrations, from 1945 to the present day

À la suite d’un premier colloque, tenu à Montréal en 2011, le présent colloque a pour but de poursuivre le dialogue qui s’y était engagé entre chercheur-es de différents horizons et disciplines. La perspective comparée doit permettre d’apprécier le rôle des acteurs, associations privées, organes gouvernementaux ou organisations internationales qui favorisent la migration au Québec et en France. Elle permettra, par ailleurs, d’analyser les récits et les imaginaires des migrants et la manière dont ils ont justifié leur départ dans l’un ou l’autre pays.
