Port Cities: Comparative Perspectives on Urban Stability and Public Safety
18th-21st centuries
The coming of globalization was centrally anchored in the increased mobility of goods, people and ideas. Port cities were thus transformed in crucial hubs in this mobility age. Because of the heterogeneous social and cultural landscape associated with commerce and transport, port cities became increasingly known as insecure places. Hence the perceptions resulting from and the strategies adopted to deal with the insecurity and the search for a new sense of urban stability were especially acute in port cities.

The Commentary Tradition on Thomas Aquinas's Summa Theologiae (15th-18th Century)
La Somme théologique est un des classiques de l’histoire de la théologie et de la philosophie. Au-delà de son énorme influence au Moyen Âge, la Somme a aussi marqué la théologie et la philosophie au début de l’époque moderne. Cela s’explique aussi par le fait que la Somme a remplacé les Sentences de Pierre Lombard comme le texte par lequel la théologie était enseignée dans les universités catholiques à partir de la fin du XVe et jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle. Ce remplacement s’est produit premièrement dans les studia dominicaines allemands dans la seconde moitié du XVe siècle et, au niveau universitaire, à Salamanque avec Francisco de Vitoria dans les années 1530. Dans quelques décennies, la Somme était adoptée comme le livre d’enseignement de la théologie dans toute l’Europe de la Contre-Réforme.

40 years of democracy (ies): progresses, contradictions and prospects
VIII Portuguese Sociological Congress
Portuguese singularity presents today new communication bridges in comparison to other territorial realities, offering itself as a rare laboratory of sociological analysis. Regression phenomenon’s (both structural and dispositional) of articulation of social change’s asynchronous rhythms, of risk proliferation and uncertainty, conflictive conciliation of multiple modernities, within an unfinished one, challenge us to look sociologically at these last 40 years and also to think prospectively on tendencies and future challenges.

Conference, symposium - Economy
A investigação científica, a divulgação de novas tecnologias, a globalização económica em curso permitiram a abertura de novos espaços e tempos de concepção e execução na vida económica, na qual mercados com enormes potencialidades lançam novos desafios de qualidade e quantidade às empresas. Daqui a exigência de uma outra dimensão à produtividade e competitividade empresarial, impondo profundas mudanças na organização do trabalho, para responder a novos prazos e custos de produção. Por isso, a pressão de novos investimentos, com esperadas e diferentes respostas do sector financeiro, exigem outros ritmos de trabalho que sejam portadores de maior retorno, com preocupações acrescidas nos domínios da Segurança e Saúde no trabalho, para além de se levantarem sérias reflexões à solução dos problemas do desemprego nas suas diversas dimensões.

Ethics and social responsibility research
Following in the footsteps of its first edition in 2011, the 2nd Symposium on Ethics and Social Responsibility Research-2013 is intended to promote a dialogue between the research lines which converge in the quest for scientific understanding of the current challenges of ethics, sustainability and social responsibility in organizations. SESRR will also address the complexities of individual ethical decision-making processes in organizational settings. It aims not only to discuss theoretical models and empirical results, but also debating the organizational strategies and the intervention practices in these areas, which are particularly at stake in the context of the economic crisis nowadays. Issues such as the prevention of misconduct in organizations or the relationship between individual’s ethical behavior and the strategies for the economic recovery will be discussed at specific forums.

The diplomatic letter (2): the epistolary genre as an administration tool
La série de journées d’études consacrée à « La Lettre diplomatique » tire son argument de la grande ductilité du genre épistolaire et s’attache à l’étude de la contamination formelle de l’acte diplomatique par la lettre. En effet, si l’acte se justifie par le droit qu’il crée et la lettre par les nouvelles qu’elle donne, la lettre peut aussi transmettre un ordre ou notifier une situation juridique et devenir de ce fait « diplomatique ». Avec cette seconde session, on attend réfléchir à la forte « diplomatisation » de la lettre à partir du Moyen Âge central, en lien notamment avec le redéploiement des artes dictaminis dès le XIe siècle, et à la diversité des emplois du genre épistolaire comme outil administratif.

Sexuality(ies) and citizenship(s)
A Revista Ibero-americana de Saúde e Cidadania/Iberoamerican publica uma edição especial sobre Sexualidade(s) e Cidadania(s). Os trabalhos devem abordar a importância da sexualidade na sociedade e na conceituação e definição de cidadania. Este número temático aborda a importância da visibilidade da diversidade sexual, a capacitação das diferenças, das minorias sociais e sexuais, e a necessidade de criar, projetar e estabelecer políticas sociais e de saúde pública que melhorem a situação social da diversidade sexual. Diversidade sexual e cidadania são dois conceitos que fazem parte do desenvolvimento educacional e social de forma global e diversificada. Devem, por isso, ser analisados de forma multidisciplinar. Daí que se pretenda uma abordagem das ciências da saúde, das ciências sociais e humanas e dos estudos de género das realidades sociais decorrentes de ambos os conceitos.

Local resistance and global aporia
French-language literature and the challenge of globalisation
Le phénomène complexe de la mondialisation – du fait même de ses implications culturelles et identitaires, intéresse, interroge et met la littérature (toute littérature) à l’épreuve, et au défi de se (re)définir et de décliner des approches nouvelles de son rapport à l’espace, aux lieux et genres d’écriture. De ce fait, la littérature française contemporaine et les vastes littératures francophones ou allophones d’expression française s’avèrent, à maints égards, un miroir des apories et des paradoxes que le phénomène mondialisant fait subir à nos sociétés contemporaines et qui engendrent des ambiguïtés ou des échanges identitaires et interculturels des plus féconds, mais aussi des plus impromptus.

Sensing the city: explorations in sensory ethnography
The conference aims to explore the relation between urban places and sensory experiences, drawing attention to the many dimensions of life in the city, mainly those that are rendered by the sense. We are guided by two main questions: What’s the role of the senses in framing, attributing meaning and changing collective and subjective experiences of city dwellers? And what is the relevant impact of sensory registration and analysis on the way of doing ethnography? Our objective is to gather researchers working on urban settings through ethnographic approaches. The senses will be considered both as an epistemological proposal – through which one sees the urban phenomena – and a methodological approach to the city.

The problem of ethnographic and anthropological methodology
Antropológicas Journal
The journal Antropológicas is accepting proposals for publication in its next issue that will address the problem of ethnographic and anthropological methodology. Manuscripts should be submitted to the page http://revistas.rcaap.pt/antropologicas/login by the 28th of February of 2013. Antropológicas’ number 13th will address the problem of ethnographic and anthropological methodology, because since the academic statement of its field of knowledge, ethnographic practice and anthropological writing had many debates, both for the originality of the methodology and the scientific accuracy required by their professionals. Among social sciences, anthropology was the one where theoretical discussion about its rationale demanded a greater critical capacity, by placing into question its methodological grounds.
