  Conference, symposium - Modern

  Militant misfortune

  Ce colloque vise à appréhender, en intégrant une diversité de méthodes et de terrains (partis, associations, syndicats, ONG, groupes religieux, en contexte démocratique ou autoritaire), les logiques de la déception – qu’elle mène ou non à la défection –, de la frustration ou du ressentiment qui s’expriment dans les groupes militants. Il s’agit de proposer, à l’instar du Bourdieu de La misère du monde, une alternative aux descriptions psychologisantes de ces formes de malaise, d’en comprendre et d’en objectiver les mécanismes.

  Scapegoats - when research informs practices

  Il s’agit cette année de mettre en résonance les apports de la recherche avec les pratiques du monde professionnel, que ces pratiques soient individuelles (la part des individus et de leurs stratégies, usagers, professionnels de terrain, cadres intermédiaires, managers dans le processus de construction du bouc émissaire), collectives (la part des dynamiques de groupe et des appartenances collectives dans la logique d’exclusion) ou institutionnelles (l’impact du cadre et de l’organisation sur le phénomène du bouc émissaire).

  Activist Tribulations

  Through integrating a diversity of methods and situations  (parties, associations, unions, NGOs, and religious groups, in democratic or authoritarian contexts), this symposium aims to grasp the logic behind the disappointment or frustration expressed in activist groups—whether or not it leads to defection. Following Bourdieu in La misère du monde, it is a question of proposing an alternative to psychologizing descriptions of these forms of malaise, to understand  and objectify the mechanisms.

  To reconcile and to reincorporate

  Discourse, ceremonies and practices in and beyond the Iberic Monarchies

  In recent years historiography has been slowly acknowledging the potential of civil societies to restore concord after profound divisions. It also has uncovered the pacification strategies of authorities to reconcile and reincorporate individuals and social groups after periods of contestation and revolt. These complex processes are crucial to better understand the history of the Iberic monarchies, which have been able to develop a long-term government despite many crises of different origin and outlook. Hence, this conference will be focused on the themes of reconciliation and reincorporation from following four perspectives: Words, discourses and emotions (semantics and sentiments), Negotiating reconciliation (promotors and strategies), Making reconciliation work (agents and mediators, processes and forms), In the margin of reconciliations (the undecided and excluded)
