The world seen from Asia - the history and practices of cartography in Asian worlds
Histoire et pratiques cartographiques dans les mondes asiatiques
L’émergence spectaculaire de l’Asie sur la scène internationale et son rôle moteur dans la mondialisation actuelle sont à l’origine de nouvelles réflexions sur cette région et sur ses interactions avec le reste du monde. Le séminaire « Le monde vu d’Asie : histoire et pratiques cartographiques dans les mondes asiatiques » s’inscrit dans cette perspective et plus précisément dans l’entreprise de décentrement de l’histoire du monde. Il entend participer pleinement à l’écriture collective d’une nouvelle histoire de l’Asie et du monde et promouvoir la recherche historique et épistémologique sur les pratiques cartographiques et les savoirs géographiques, qui contribuent à la construction des discours locaux, nationaux, régionaux ou mondiaux en Asie.

Circulation and Scientific Institutions
The Americas, Western Europe, South Asia (1750s-1914)
While historians should take into account the movements in space that constantly transform sciences, they should not lose sight of the specific locations dedicated to the daily work of scientists. In scientific facilities (museums, laboratories, hospitals, etc.), modern scientists use their research instruments, meet with members of their networks, teach, and interact with various actors from outside of their scientific community. Participants in this symposium will seek how to write the history of this dynamic between circulation and institutions of science.

Multifaceted Inequality in Contemporary India
The "Association des jeunes études indiennes" (AJEI) is a student organization whose members are young researchers coming from various disciplines of the human and social sciences (from masters degree to postdoctoral level) whose area of research is South Asia. Every year, a research seminar in France and a workshop in India bring students and scholars together in order to discuss the topics and papers presented. Since 1998 the AJEI organizes an annual workshop in India with the support of international and local partners. This year we propose a three day workshop with an opening lecture, daily presentations discussed by senior researchers, methodological workshops, and a concluding session. One of our goals is also to interact informally, and build relationships, towards creating a strong international network of researchers.
