The Amiens conference - March 1968. Fifty years on

Cinquante ans après ?

Cinquante ans après le colloque d'Amiens, il apparaît nécessaire pour comprendre la signification passée et présente de l'événement d'en réexaminer le contenu. Il s'agit de replacer le colloque dans l'histoire politico-éducative, nationale et internationale : dans son antériorité et sa postérité. Trois thèmes sont proposés à l'examen : contextes et acteurs ; questions en débat ; retombées sur les politiques éducatives.

The Franciscans in Mexico

Five Centuries of Cultural Influence

Generations of scholars have studied the multi-faceted experiences of the Franciscans in Mexico and the ways in which the Franciscan order shaped New Spain and the early Mexican republic. This conference examines the range of Franciscan influence and analyzes new scholarship that focuses on the multiple discourses with which friars engaged native peoples, creole populations, the vice-regal authorities, and other actors throughout the Spanish empire. The conference brings together junior and senior scholars to study the long Franciscan experience in Mexico on the eve of the commemoration of the quincentenary of the Spanish — and thus the Franciscan— presence in Mexico.

The age of minorities - Lineas issue 11

Líneas n° 11

Le numéro 11 de Líneas, « L’âge des minorités », s’attachera à la question des minorités en Espagne et en Amérique latine. Feront l’objet d’un intérêt particulier la relation entre minorités et États nationaux, empires et peuples mineurs, mais aussi les minorités juridiques ou celles au sein de la famille. Seront également bienvenus les articles s’intéressant aux courant artistiques ne visant pas tant à s’émanciper dans le passage de la minorité à la majorité, mais à provoquer une rupture avec la norme majoritaire et à affirmer ce « devenir-minoritaire » promu par Deleuze et Guattari dans leur Kafka, pour une littérature mineure.

Power and media, media power Insights on the Americas

Insights on the Americas

For its 11th issue, RITA proposes to interrogate the links between power and media in the Americas. Several areas of debate can be suggested, although they should not be considered as exclusive. Articles making a critical analysis of official media as well as opposition media, in varied historical and geographical contexts, will of course be welcome. Other articles may deal with the treatment of popular movements by the media. Critical reflections on the relationship between media and economic power are also encouraged. The Thema section can also include analysis of the current diversification of information media by focusing, for instance, on the emergence of “alternative” media on the Internet, or on the power of fake news over the construction of collective representations.

“Literary Offenses” and Other Contentious Matter

This one-day conference will address the subject of controversial or polemical texts such as reviews, essays, letters, prefaces and/or postfaces published between 1800 and 1900 in Britain and the United States. It seeks to open fresh approaches to controversies or polemics by focusing on literature and the literary aspects of these questions. Indeed, if controversy can be defined as a debate between two or more parties with different viewpoints before an audience, studies have mainly come from the fields of social sciences and science studies, with some interest in rhetoric and/or argumentation. However, literary controversies are as important as scientific ones for the constitution of the public, democratic debate as it was shaped in Britain and in the U.S. in the nineteenth century. Controversies and polemics contributed to legitimizing some literary genres; they gave publicity to new or avant-garde authors; they redefined the content and contours of the public debate.

La première journée d’études, consacrée à la période de l'après-seconde guerre mondiale ainsi qu’aux espaces ou territoires postcoloniaux, s'est déroulée le 14 novembre 2016. Cette seconde journée, « Les revues dans le monde : entre-deux-guerres », traite de l'avènement au sein des territoires non-occidentaux d'une internationale critique, caractérisée par une mise en tension entre désir d'émancipation, lutte contre l'impérialisme et spécificité culturelle.

Neo-Thomism in Action

Law and Society reshaped by Neo-Scholastic Philosophy, 1880-1960

This workshop aims to provide an opportunity for an explicitly international audience of scholars to reflect on the societal impact of Neo-Thomism, especially in the domains of law and socio-economic thinking. This is a topic deserving a multifaceted and in-depth analysis, using a broad, international comparative perspective and combining the results of very different fields of historical research: history of science, church and religion, social and political history, etc.
