  Historical approaches in France and the French colonial empire, 17th-20th centuries

  Les communs environnementaux sont les formes d’organisation grâce auxquelles les communautés gouvernent leurs environnements et leurs ressources via des formes de propriété collective : pâturages et forêts, zones humides et landes, cours d’eau et systèmes irrigués, champs et jardins, pêcheries, estrans, gisements de matériaux et de combustibles... Ces systèmes sont gérés par leurs ayant-droit, et mêlent souvent propriété pleinement commune et droits d’usage collectifs.

  The Price of Peace: Modernising the Ancien Régime?

  Europe 1815-1848

  In many historiographic traditions, the so-called "Restoration" has been depicted as an awkward interval between the Napoleonic Wars and the age of nationalism. This international conference has the ambition of breaking down old myths and stereotypes about the ‘Restoration’ in order to think more broadly and openly about the key transitions and issues. The conference will revolve around the provocative historiographical issue of whether the post-Napoleonic order represented an attempt to reconcile the heritage of the Ancien Régime with a deeply transformed world. Topics explored by panels of invited experts from across Europe will include Rethinking the "Restoration", New departures in international relations, Constitutions vs. Charters, Rebirth of composite monarchies, Before and Beyond the Nation, Historicising the Ancien Régime?, New borders and old identities.
