  Student mobility in the French-speaking space in the 20th century: institutions, trajectories and sensitivities

  Ce colloque cherche à mieux comprendre les réseaux et sociabilités forgés à travers les échanges étudiants qui se multiplient dans le monde francophone au cours du XX^e siècle, et en particulier après 1945. Plus précisément, ce colloque vise à éclairer les liens entre, d’une part, la mobilité et les séjours d’étudiants francophones (Canada, Suisse, Afrique subsaharienne, Maroc, Indochine, etc.), facteurs de rencontres et d’initiation à l’« international », et, d’autre part, les institutions en charge de la mobilité étudiante dans l’espace francophone.

  Schools and languages in areas faced with linguistic division throughout history

  Many times throughout history, the situation has occurred in which different linguistic practices share the same physical space. These practices differ according to social strata as well as social usage and type of interaction. Western Brittany has certainly found itself in this situation, even in the 20th century, when, according to Pierre Jakez Hélias’ account, the Breton language reigned supreme in villages, on the street, in businesses and the church, while French was limited to schools and interactions between the city and public institutions.

  Considering spaces of alternative learning

  This conference aims to interrogate space as an educational tool. Recent literature is rather unanimous in stating that space is not a neutral element and that, in education, spatiality plays a role in the construction of social and educational relations; questioning how space could operate in building models of ‘alternative’, ‘critical’ or ‘citizen’ education is more controversial. But how could we define an alternative or critical education? Which places and spaces can we consider ‘different’ from institutional and conventional educational models?
