Ce colloque proposera à la fois une réflexion théorique et la présentation d’études de cas sur le récit d’esclave dans les mondes anglophone, francophone et hispanophone. Les interventions examineront notamment le contexte et le rôle politique des récits : genre et périodisation, publication, circulation et réception, réécritures contemporaines du récit d’esclave. Faisant suite à cette présentation théorique et à ces études de cas, la dernière partie du colloque, qui ouvre également l’exposition Paul et Virginie, un exotisme enchanteur, organisée du 22 novembre 2013 au 18 mai 2014 à l’hôtel Dubocage de Bléville, est consacrée à l’étude des écrits de l’esclavage dans le monde indianocéanique entre l’époque de Bernardin de Saint-Pierre et le premier XIXe siècle.

Questioning Spaces of Citizenship in Latin America and the Caribbean
Latin American History Graduate Student Conference
Scholars often invoke citizenship as an analytic frame to understand the history of Latin America and the Caribbean. While the concept can encompass a broad range of topics, this conference will focus on the spaces where individuals and groups come into contact with the institutions and symbols of the state. These spaces may be physical places, institutional settings, discursive realms, or other fora. In this graduate student conference, we will ask how such spaces of citizenship are constructed, delimited, and at times rejected, and how the terms of interaction and negotiation in these spaces are defined and re-defined.

Mapping the History of the Bohemian Lands and the First Czechoslovak Republic (1880-1938)
It seems that in contrast to the contemporary history of former Czechoslovakia, the research on the late 19th and early 20th centuries has remained static in the last couple of years. How can the recent historiography on the Bohemian lands be encouraged? Which approaches and research fields emphasizing the mutual relationships between local, national and transnational actors promise new perspectives and interpretations of multiethnic society? The workshop aims at critical discussions of the state of research and of ongoing research projects related to the Bohemian lands and the First Czechoslovak Republic, focusing on comparative or transnational questions in the given period.

Dilemmas of political representation
The journal Snodi. Public and Private in Contemporary History will devote its 13th issue to the theme of political representation; we invite submissions of papers which address in particular the dilemmas, the conflicts and the tensions that can arise between duties of representation and individual choices and inclinations. We are interested in explorations of the ways in which the conflict between the "self" and the "collective self" has broken out within the political sphere at different stages of the modern era, from the late eighteenth century to the present, and in differentgeographical contexts.

The office as an interior (1880-1960)
Au cours de la « deuxième révolution industrielle » augmente considérablement l’activité dans le tertiaire et se développent les services administratifs dans le secteur industriel et public. L’employé devient ainsi la figure sociale de la modernité urbaine, qui témoigne aussi du rôle croissant de la femme dans ce secteur professionnel. Le colloque The office as an interior (1880-1960) aborde l’essor du travail administratif entre 1880 et 1960 à travers l’analyse de l’émergence d´un espace nouveau, le bureau, qui par ses arrangements contribue à la diffusion de nouvelles formes de sociabilité et réalise des nouveaux modes d’organisation du travail.

The revolutionary wave of the New Left in Latin America and Europe (1960-1990)
The workshop seeks to open an academic dialogue about the origins, development and decline of the wave of violence of the revolutionary New Left in Latin America and Europe. It aims to favor the adoption of transnational perspectives to explore influences and links – ideological, material and personal – between organizations and revolutionary groups within and between the two continents. We especially pursue to delve into issues such as the spread of ideas and repertoires of action, the collaboration, support or solidarity between organizations, and comparative perspectives that would allow us to find possible common patterns of emergence, development and disappearance of armed groups within the wave of the « New Left ».The activity will have two parts.

From silicosis to silica hazards: an experiment in medicine, history and the social sciences
Quels sont les biais hérités de la constitution du savoir médical ? Peut-on retourner à la racine de la "vérité scientifique" pour ouvrir de nouvelles voies à la recherche contemporaine ? Expérience interdisciplinaire inédite, le présent colloque réunira médecins, épidémiologistes et historiens pour repenser les fondements des connaissances médicales actuelles en matière de « risques silice », afin de discuter de l'origine inconnue de toute une série de maladies systémiques.

Dette, démocratie, citoyenneté. Histoire politique des dettes publiques
Europe, États-Unis, fin XVIIIe-début XXIe siècle
Sous forme d'atelier, cette journée d'études explore, en croisant les approches, la dette publique comme lieu du débat et du conflit politiques en Europe et aux États-Unis depuis la fin du XVIIIe siècle. En rassemblant des études de cas sur ce nœud entre la politique (notamment dans sa dimension sociale) et l'endettement de l'État, elle propose de réinterroger certaines notions centrales à notre compréhension du fonctionnement politique du monde contemporain, et tout particulièrement la souveraineté, la citoyenneté, la démocratie et la solidarité.

History: change and continuity in a Global World
PIUDHIST is an inter-university doctoral programme in which History is viewed from an inter-disciplinary point of view. Despite its unique character, History is regarded here as a field of knowledge which cannot do without a permanent cross fertilization with other areas in the humanities and the social sciences. In our vision, this is also why we consider apposite to attach, as a subtitle for this programme, the words “change and continuity in a global world”.

Das Büro als Interieur (1880-1960)
Die sog. «zweite industrielle Revolution» steht für ein signifikantes Wachstum des tertiären Sektors (Banken, Versicherungen etc.) ebenso entstehen sowohl in der Industrie wie in den Ämtern und Behörden neue Verwaltungseinrichtungen. Damit einher geht eine massive Erhöhung der Angestelltenzahlen. Der Angestellte wird zu der sozioprofessionellen Figur der urbanen Moderne, wobei der berufstätigen Frau zunehmende Bedeutung zukommt. Die Tagung beschäftigt sich mit der Entstehung des Büros, um die Wechselbeziehungen zwischen physischem und sozialem Raum, Materialität und Praktiken, Strategien und Taktiken, Strukturen und Individuen zu analysieren. Ebenso soll das Büro in eine historische Perspektive gerückt werden, soll das Augenmerk auf die Bedeutung des Büros für die Strukturierung und Transformation der soziokulturellen Gegebenheiten von der vorletzten Jahrhundertwende bis Ende der 1950er Jahre gerichtet werden.

Santiago de Chile
The objective of this colloquium will be to debate and analyze politics and the political by means of the different forms of language, discourse and practices that intervene in the construction of the social world. There are myriad examples of this in Chilean history. Taking history, political philosophy and political economy as the starting points, we invite doctoral candidates, researchers and academics to participate in this truly trans disciplinary space of debate, reflection and feedback whose goal is not only to unite a community of researchers into “the political” in the republican period but also to select the best works presented for a future publication in the format of a collective work or a special dossier of a scientific publication.

Transfers of precious metals and their consequences (17th-20th centuries)
After the first Round Table, in Paris at the École normale supérieure in January 2012, "Moneys and Economies during 19th Century, from Europe to Asia", a second Round Table will be organized in the framework of the program DAMIN, in cooperation with the Casa de Velázquez and the LabEx TransferS (École normale supérieure, Paris). Precious metals were often transferred from a region, or a country, to another: looting of conquered regions (such as Roman Spain, Gaul or Egypt), invasions (Vandals, Huns invading the Roman Empire, Crusaders arriving at Constantinople), and, of course arrival of gold and silver from Americas after 1492. Each time, the new metal disturbed the monetary systems, sometimes improving, sometimes troubling the currencies and economies. The period considered is focused on the 19th century, the question of the depreciation of silver and the transfers of metals from America or Europe to Asia, India, China, etc.

Women in Educated Elites of Pre-Socialist and Early Socialist East Central European Societies
The opening up to modernity of East Central Europe since the late 19th century was marked – among other things – by a triple process generating structural transformations of established post-feudal societies and affecting often radically the status of women. Due to post-feudal conditions of competition for social standing, positions of influence and prestige, hitherto unknown forms of inequalities appeared in the very process of accumulation of political, economic, professional, cultural an educational assets henceforth necessary for the access to the elites. Female professionals, though they could rarely achieve advanced careers in the ruling elites in the old regime, so much so that they often encountered even various forms of public rejection and discrimination on intellectual markets, significantly participated in the framing of the way of life of the new middle class. This workshop will adopt a gender-focused perspective cocentrating on the place of women (training, education, professions) and bringing to light the differences and inequalities existing between male and female members of educated elites.

In what sense was democracy re-imagined in this period? In the middle of the eighteenth century, "democracy" was a concept familiar chiefly to the educated, referring primarily to the Ancient world, Greece and Rome. By the middle of the nineteenth century, it had been "re-imagined" as an important category for understanding the modern world. We are interested in how people at the time used the term: negatively as well as positively, and to describe and interpret a variety of phenomena, social and cultural as well as institutional.
