Multiculturalism, interculturality, complex identities: the example of Caucasia
The aim of the symposium is to highlight the treasures of an area that is culturally and historically a kind of multicultural island: the Caucasus. Nizami Ganjavi, for example, is a poet of multiculturalism, and he owes his fame both to his lyricism and to his ethics of peaceful coexistence. The Book of Dede Korkut is another interesting example: it is the result of a meeting of cultures, and it inspired many multicultural artists (poets, dramatists, film-makers). Caucasian multiculturalism is indeed still alive (among the numerous works inspired by the Oghuz epic, one can think of Nabi Hazri’s Dreams and legends, of Altaï Mamedov’s Deli Domrul or of Anar’s Dede Gorgut). The symposium will focus on the relationship between multiculturalism, interculturality and intermediality, as well as on the role of multiculturalism in the field of pedagogy.

Repetition/s: Performance and Philosophy in Ljubljana
Contemporary developments in the increasingly intertwined fields of philosophy and performance call for a renewed inquiry into the question of repetition. With its unique critique of ideology arising from a synthesis of German Idealism and Lacanian psychoanalysis, the Ljubljana School (Dolar, Zupančič, Žižek et al.) continues to furnish important theorisations of repetition and performance as they pertain to subjectivity and the political. One of the primary aims of “Repetition/s” will be to investigate and develop the usefulness of the Ljubljana School’s theorisations for the emerging field of Performance Philosophy.

Regionalisation and governance
La nouvelle structuration politico-administrative de la Tunisie née de la constitution de 2014 implique un nouveau mode d’organisation et de gestion territoriale, ce qui représente un champ de réflexion pour les géographes mais aussi pour plusieurs autres disciplines, sur la gouvernance territoriale. Cette question de gouvernance territoriale est en étroite relation avec les questions de régionalisation des territoires et de leurs développements. L’enjeu est désormais de savoir comment, – dans un contexte de transition démocratique et de mise en place de nouveaux instruments législatifs et institutionnels –, les responsables politiques, les divers acteurs et les chercheurs considèrent la problématique de la gouvernance territoriale. Ce colloque propose de réfléchir sur la nouvelle gouvernance des territoires régionaux et locaux et sur les enjeux qui déterminent aujourd’hui la mise en place de cette gouvernance et les contraintes qui l’entravent.

Conference, symposium - Sociology
The success of cultural life in the 21st century: policies, interventions and initiatives
Le paysage culturel, tant québécois que français, s’est beaucoup transformé au cours des dernières décennies. Intitulé Essor de la vie culturelle au XXIe siècle : politiques, interventions et initiatives, ce colloque franco-québécois est né de constats dressés au sujet des effets et des retombées générées par les politiques culturelles qui ont été adoptées depuis les vingt-cinq dernières années, tant en France qu’au Québec ; constats qui sont parfois contradictoires sur la portée de celles-ci et qui traduisent les tensions sociales, ainsi que des mutations socioculturelles, politiques, économiques qui traversent la société.
