Identity and the challenge of interdisciplinarity
Study days for young Franco-German researchers
Aujourd’hui, les réflexions autour des « enjeux identitaires » sont au cœur de l’actualité politico-médiatique. Tandis que d’aucuns craignent un « repli identitaire » créateur de communautarismes, d’autres suggèrent que la création d’une identité européenne favoriserait l’intégration. Or, si chaque discipline s’est approprié la notion, l’usage qui en est fait paraît parfois hermétique. Prenant acte de la relative imperméabilité des frontières disciplinaires entre sciences sociales, linguistique et littérature, ces journées d’études se proposent de réinterroger le concept d’identité en convoquant simultanément des outils communs à l’ensemble des disciplines et aux deux traditions scientifiques concernées.

Security Provision in West Asia and North Africa in times of Social and Political Change
Amongst the various demands of the thousands of people who took to the streets in West Asia and North Africa since late 2010, one common theme has been an end of arbitrary police violence and corruption. Throughout the uprisings and in an attempt to contain the growing insecurity, people started policing in the absence of police. Prominent examples are the liğān šaᶜbiya, the popular committees, in Egypt and in a different shape and outreach in Syria or in Yemen. Yet even before the uprisings, non-state actors have policed territory in spaces of limited statehood, such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, or the People’s Protection Units in Syrian Kurdistan. This workshop aims at conceptualizing the ambivalent relationships in comparative perspective, addressing the different ways in which boundaries and relations between military, police and civilian worlds are reshaped today.

Inequalities and Capabilities, Rationalities and Politics

Conference, symposium - History
Espaces de violence d’une région transfrontalière : la Lorraine entre 1870 et 1962
Ce colloque s'inscrit dans les recherches historiques et sociologiques qui s'attachent à produire une « description dense » des pratiques de la violence physique. L'objectif principal de cette entreprise est de dévoiler les logiques, les effets structurants de la violence et les formes de communications qui lui sont propres. Nous concentrant sur les différents espaces marqués par la violence en Lorraine entre 1870 et 1962 ainsi que sur les discours qui leur sont liés, nous traiterons notamment la question des ruptures et des continuités d'exercice de la violence physique dans cette région.
