  Resistance and Empire, new approaches and comparisons

  Since the early twentieth century, the notion of resistance became common currency in colonial language and anti-colonial ideologies to refer to military, political, and other forms of countering the authority of the colonizing institutions and agents in the colonies. After World War II and the boom of decolonization, it became an important tool in the critical and conceptual analysis of colonialism as a relationship of domination and opposition. Consequently, a wealth of studies was produced that focused on the ways though which indigenous people actively opposed, rebelled, or contested – militarily, politically, symbolically, culturally – the colonizing presence of Europeans. In the 1990s-2000s the validity of taking on “resistance” as a privileged concept and empirical topic was criticized for reducing the colonial phenomenon to a simplistic dichotomy – and since it appeared to have lost much of its early vitality in historical and anthropological research on empires and colonialism. Yet, since decolonization, ideas of “liberation” and anti-colonial resistance did not lose their significance as powerful tropes in retrospective nationalist readings of the birth of post- colonial nation-states. More recently, across the social sciences, “resistance” as a concept and a research trope seems to be revived, and a trans-disciplinary field of ‘resistance studies’ appears to come into emergence. What it means to study “resistance” both conceptually and comparatively in colonial and imperial history today?

  Musiques en démocratie : acteurs, institutions, pratiques, discours

  À l’heure de la globalisation des pratiques musiciennes et de la multiplication des échelles et réseaux de financement de la culture, ce colloque international se propose de faire retour sur l’histoire des politiques culturelles et des mobilisations de la musique dans les sociétés démocratiques, de l’apparition des premières pensées de la démocratisation jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Pourquoi et comment a-t-on cherché, depuis le XIX^e siècle, à « porter la musique au peuple » ? Quelles significations et quelles formes prend cet enjeu dans le monde contemporain ?

  Madrid, trazas y trazados (1950-2000)

  La ville, lieu « où se trame l'existence humaine » comme le formule Lewis Mumford offre un carde de réflexion applicable aux villes modernes. Le choix de Madrid est un choix comme un autre, nul besoin de l'expliquer sinon que rien ne disposait cette bourgade médiévale à devenir capitale, encore moins métropole. Les approches seront croisées, sociologiques, urbanistiques, littéraires, linguistiques et historiques.

  Les mardis des Bernardins (2014-2015)

  Porter un regard neuf sur de grands thèmes collectifs, penser autrement la place de l’homme dans la société et interpréter les grandes transformations de nos civilisations à la lumière de la sagesse chrétienne, voici quelques-uns des défis qui animent, chaque semaine, les équipes des mardis des Bernardins. Pour départager l’information superficielle des enjeux véritables, pour dégager des perspectives et anticiper l’avenir, ces tables rondes n’ont qu’un seul parti pris : replacer l’homme au centre des enjeux de notre temps.

  The making of cultural policies

  Trans-Acting Matters: Areas and Eras of a (Post-)Ottoman Globalization

  This workshop takes place in the framework of the research project “Trans-Acting Matters: Areas and Eras of a (Post-)Ottoman Globalization”. It aims to analyse the making of cultural policies and actions in Turkey and the post-ottoman spaces. We wish to question the ways in which the circulations participate in the construction of cultural policies today as well as to rethink the earlier cultural policies and actions from the late Ottoman Empire onwards. The workshop attempts to question the co-production of cultural policies, of their spaces and territories, as well as the plurality of the conceptions of culture carried by cultural policies. The workshop will focus on the phenomena of hybridity, of connections, and associations of various actors which co-produce original forms of cultural policies.
