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).

Programa de bolsas FLAD para docência e investigação nos EUA
A Fundação Luso-Americana para o Desenvolvimento (FLAD) entende que a renovação do interesse pelo estudo da língua e da cultura portuguesas nos meios académicos norte-americanos poderia passar pela criação de uma plataforma aberta às temáticas da lusofonia que incluísse no espaço de cooperação instituições científicas de Portugal, dos países africanos de expressão portuguesa e do Brasil. Os estudos lusófonos, entendidos numa perspectiva multidisciplinar, seriam o elemento agregador do interesse disperso de docentes e investigadores de diferentes áreas das ciências sociais e humanas, projectando uma região linguística de crescente relevância, sendo a FLAD o ponto de encontro e de desenvolvimento de um ambicioso projecto de cooperação transatlântica.

Conference, symposium - Epistemology and methodology
Gestão de informação e propriedade intelectual em arquivos
Os novos contextos digitais fazem da questão do Direito de Autor um problema e um desafio cada vez mais actuais, transnacionais e prioritários. Pensar a propriedade intelectual dos documentos de arquivo, em diálogo com o equilíbrio de interesses que é preciso assegurar entre a protecção legal e o direito à informação, tornou-se um imperativo inegável para bibliotecários, arquivistas, juristas e outros profissionais. Debater esta temática é o propósito das Jornadas “Gestão de Informação e Propriedade Intelectual em Arquivos”, uma organização conjunta do Goethe-Institut Portugal e da Associação Portuguesa de Bibliotecários, Arquivistas e Documentalistas (BAD), que terá lugar nos dias 20 e 21 de Março de 2013, em Lisboa, no Auditório do Arquivo Nacional da Torre do Tombo.

Call for papers - Epistemology and methodology
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.

Administrative and Legal Documentation in Pre-colonial Africa and Beyond
Fifth European Conference on African Studies (ECAS 5)
Historians, anthropologists as well as specialists of various scholarly traditions are invited to reflect on the question of production, transmission and preservation of administrative and legal documentation in pre-colonial Africa. The aim of this panel is to foster dialogue between scholars working on non-narrative sources, whether land charters, weddings contracts, deeds, funerary inscriptions or other archival materials. Presentations of methodological issues rather than case-studies would facilitate a comparative approach leading to a renewed understanding of the social organizations that produced these documents.
