    Real estate, the subject for interdisciplinary study - continuity and new issues

    Continuités et nouveaux enjeux

    Dans les dernières décennies, l’accroissement spectaculaire de la demande mondiale en ressources naturelles a considérablement accru la pression sur l’accès et la gestion des terres à travers le monde. Lancée à l’initiative d’un groupe interdisciplinaire composé de chercheurs américanistes et africanistes, ce projet de journée d’étude ambitionne de proposer une lecture actualisée des questions foncières dans une perspective globale. Cette relecture se veut tant conceptuelle que méthodologique, dans le sillage des renouvellements historiographiques et épistémologiques qui ont traversé les différents champs des sciences sociales au cours des dernières décennies.

    Sustainability of Rural Systems

    Balancing Heritage and Innovation

    Belgium is a highly populated country with a long history of land exploitation. The landscape is modified through human impact, shaped by diverse agricultural practices, early urbanization and industrialization, the exploitation of quarries and mines and the dense development of canals, railways and motorway networks. Nevertheless, rural areas are important because farming activities, increasingly mechanized and technologically based, contribute to economic activity, especially to Belgian exports. Agriculture plays an important role in maintaining open space and offering many services, which may be called agroservices, to the new residents of the countryside and people seeking recreation. Due to this long history and sophisticated technological responses to different issues, Belgium is a suitable place to reflect on sustainability and how to balance cultural and natural heritage and innovation with special reference to the ecological and social dimensions.

    World Cinema and Television in French

    This interdisciplinary conference will examine cinematic and televisual cultural productions that fall under a broad "French-language" umbrella in order to map out significant trends as well as new directions in the study of global French-language cinema and television and its points of contact with other languages and industries. It also aims to explore the opportunities and limitations of adopting labels such as cinéma-monde, transnational, Francophone, and World Cinema, as critical frameworks.
