  The resilience of European port cities: crisis and reinvention (16th-21th)

  Port cities have often radically reinvented themselves, a testament to their resiliency (i.e. their capacity of resistance and their ability to recover from disruptive events). This bilingual conference (French/English) put an emphasis on papers dealing with crises and reinvention in a comparative fashion. It is open to historians and to other social scientists who adopt a historical viewpoint, in particular geographers, specialists of areas studies, sociologists, urbanists, anthropologists, and researchers employed in museums and archival centers.
