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.

This workshop is about interconnections between, and in space and time. But it also sees interconnections at other levels: between modelling and analysing, between theory and practice, as well as between humanities and computing.
In the humanities, a close look at networks and relationships, whether formal or informal, personal or social, of information or of knowledge, of transportation or of communication, has always been an important subject of study and, at the same time, a powerful analytical process. In computer science, the study of networks and of methodologies for analysis and visualization of these relationships is nowadays an increasingly well understood and practiced area of knowledge. In both the humanities and computer science, researchers are well aware of the dynamic nature of data and knowledge when viewed through the lenses of space and time.

Environmental approaches of interactions between cities and forest supplies during the Middles Ages and the Early modern period. 12th International Conference on urban History, European Association for Urban History – Main Session M16
As places of consumption and production European medieval and early modern cities exerted a enormous pressure on neighbouring woodlands. Some historical studies have already discussed the way cities tried to impone their control on these lands emphasizing the diversity of needs which were fulfilled by forest exploitation (wood, timber, charcoal, grazing…). They often concluded that urban pressure resulted in an inexorable degradation of the forest cover. Indeed local woodlands and forests products could probably never meet the demand. In order to face shortage or, better, to prevent it, urban authorities attempted on one hand to extend their control on more and more distant forests and to attract interregional or « international » trade flows. On the other hand, they tried to regulate the local market so as to ensure access to several important needs regarding urban economy (charcoal, timber).

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.

EAUH 2014, Session 12
The session "City Lights" is organized within the framework of the 12th international conference of the EAUH (European Association for Urban History) which will take place in Lisbon from the 3rd to the 6th September 2014. It is part of the studies on night, a dimension which has been long neglected in urban history. The session proposes to study in a comparative and multidisciplinary perspective (in history, geography, planning, sociology and environmental studies) the evolution of night-time and street-lighting practices in the world from the XVIIth century up to the present: from the increasing demand in public lighting in european capitals to the protection of the night sky and energy savings.

Monarquias ibéricas em perspectiva comparada
As monarquias imperiais ibéricas da época moderna têm sido objeto de um crescente interesse historiográfico. São inúmeros os estudos que assinalam a inserção global das redes dos dois impérios: as redes comerciais têm sido estudadas com bastante detalhe, e em articulação com estas, o tráfico de escravos, e, mais recentemente, as experiências sociais e culturais em contexto imperial têm adquirido saliência. Todavia, continuam a escassear os estudos que pensem ambas experiências comparativamente. Até que ponto é que as experiências imperiais ibéricas entre os séculos XVI e XVIII herdaram modelos político-administrativos que caracterizavam o mundo ibérico antes da expansão ultramarina? Em que medida é que estes modelos, ao serem transferidos e adaptados a diferentes contextos políticos, sociais e culturais, potenciaram novas soluções político-administrativas, algumas das quais, eventualmente, tiveram reverberações na cultura político-administrativa das metrópoles? Como é que as redes político-administrativas e respetivos agentes de poder se estruturaram e se reproduziram, o modo como estas articularam centros políticos e territórios imperiais, aproximando ou diferenciando uns e outros, constituindo, simultaneamente, as continuidades e singularidades entre metrópoles e territórios imperiais?

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”.

Call for Papers
During the contemporaneity, military conflicts often provoked junctures of rupture and transformation in pre-existing realities, whether in political, economic or social contexts, or in cultural, scientific and intellectual domains, endued, sometimes of more conservative typologies or yet of a more modernising nature. In this sense, we intend to initiate an interdisciplinary debate on the problematic of "War, University and Science", bearing in mind these multiple relationships and interdependencies, as well as the associated epistemological problematic.
