Research, Politics, Ethic and Militancy in the Human and Social Sciences

This panel seeks to provide a reflection on a multidisciplinary basis about the ethical implications on research in humanities and social science related to the objects of study. These objects potentially induce the researcher to "adopt" (even indirectly) one or more of the parts/reasons involved.

Making and unmaking territories in contemporary Turkey

Partant du constat de la montée en puissance des questions territoriales dans la société civile et dans les sciences sociales turques, ce numéro thématique de l’European Journal of Turkish Studies a pour ambition d’interroger la fabrique des territoires dans la Turquie contemporaine d’un point vue idéologique, praxéologique et épistémologique. Qui fait (et défait) le territoire ? Avec quels moyens et de quelles manières ? Que reste-t-il de l’action planificatrice et régulatrice de l’État ? Comment les acteurs politiques mais aussi les experts, militants et scientifiques pensent aujourd’hui le territoire, son extension, ses dynamiques et ses disparités en Turquie ?

Identities on the move: the Caucasus between the local, the regional and the global

With a focus on Azerbaijan

Most of the time, the countries of the South Caucasus are being scrutinized from Moscow, Istanbul, and Tehran, the capital cities of the former empires that ruled the region for centuries and struggled for control over these territories. And indeed, be it the Russian, and then the Soviet empires, or the Persian and Ottoman empires, the Caucasus has been, and still is, very much affected by the influence of regional powers in a wide range of areas. As far as identity issues in the Caucasus are concerned, they tend to be studied mainly through post-Soviet lenses due to the influence of the Soviet nationalities policy. Although this inheritance still appears relevant today, the conference aims to put the emphasis on the complex set of processes that shape identities in a broad meaning.

Quatre années de conflit en Syrie : un désastre humanitaire

Since March 2011, Syria has undergone a deep crisis. The Syrian government has remained in place but fighting are still raging between the Syrian army and the rebels and also between the various rebel groups, who are controlling a part of the territory. The death toll has risen over 200 000, with more than 4 million refugees and 7.5 million IDPs, that is to say half of Syria’s population. Half the country is exposed to deep insecurity and deprivation and only a few manage to go home. Millions of refugees are blocked in the neighbouring countries and dependent on international aid that is decreasing despite the growing needs and the absence of any diplomatic or military solution in sight.

From the Caucasus to the Arabian Peninsula: studying domestic spaces in the Neolithic

Under neolithisation scholars understand multiple processes of social and economic transformation which begin at different times and follow regional trends in the Near and Middle East. It is within the complex relational and spatial framework of the household that these shifts in the structure and activities of Neolithic communities are easiest to apprehend and study. The conference will therefore focus on the domestic sphere in order to highlight and understand the polymorphous nature of what we call neolithisation. Various thematic sessions will be held to shed new light on current data: “Impacts of the shift to a sedentary/semi-sedentary lifestyle”; “Organising the house and the household”; “Private space/public space”; “Acquisition, production, transformation and use”; “Eating-Moving”; “Symbolic manifestations”;“The living and the dead”.
