  Rethinking the Political and the History of Politics in Chile: Languages, Discourses and Practices of Power

  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.

  Neutrals and neutrality in the atlantic world during the long eighteenth century (1700-1820)

  A comprehensive approach

  Avec la croissance des échanges internationaux, l’exacerbation des rivalités coloniales et l’amplification des pratiques de guerre, les questions relatives à la neutralité dans l’espace atlantique acquièrent une importance inédite au XVIIIe siècle. L’activité des neutres participe au redéploiement des réseaux commerciaux en temps de guerre, permet à de nouveaux acteurs de s’immiscer dans le commerce transatlantique et invite à une réflexion sur la formation d’un espace euroaméricain économique, diplomatique et politique.

  New Approaches to the History of Commercial Justice

  Merchant courts and merchants’ strategies before the courts have been studied extensively up to date by both historians of law and economic and social historians. However, given the specialisation of historians, the studies tend to have either a legal and administrative, or an economic and social focus. The workshop will gather historians and legal historians to discuss recent research and new methodological approaches to the study of commercial justice from the Middle Ages to the Nineteenth Century. The aim is to establish an overview of the current research and to discuss the possibilities of combining both organizational and actor-centred perspectives in the study of commercial litigations.
