Reconstructing cities - times and reappropriated spaces
Temps et espaces réappropriés
Des historiens, archéologues, épigraphistes et philologues aborderont les rapports entre destruction et reprise en main, la distinction entre fondation et reconstruction, et proposeront des analyses ponctuelles, des études de cas ou des réflexions plus globales. Selon que les reconstructeurs sont les habitants d’avant la destruction ou un conquérant, et selon que la destruction est un fait de guerre, une catastrophe naturelle ou une volonté délibérée de rénovation et d’élimination des parties délabrées, la ville sera traitée comme un corps malade ou blessé et à soigner, réparer, amputer, ou comme un mort à enterrer, avec respect ou rage.

Human Remains & Waste Spaces from Prehistory to the Present Day
In both modern and archaeological contexts, many human remains are uncovered from structures that contain waste (such as broken pottery, food waste, and so on). These depositions are probably not merely evidence of a simple abandonment, or of depriving somebody of a grave. They are often associated with a deliberate intention to consider the body negatively –in whole or in part–, or to liken it to a piece of rubbish. For what reasons is this done? Where, when, and in what contexts do we find these depositions? Denying somebody a funeral seems in some cases a double outrage. Is this the case always and everywhere? How, by whom and why are some individuals deliberately thrown into rubbish dumps or landfill sites? Who are these individuals? Interpreting these configurations—whether they arise from archaeological or forensic discoveries –is always difficult, and has up until now impeded a wider understanding of this phenomenon.

Perspectivas antiguas sobre un tema actual
Numerous armed conflicts around the world make that peace be a longing for millions. In the case of Colombia, peace has been sought for more than 60 years of an internal conflict that seems to be coming to an end, thanks to the final agreement that the Colombian government and the FARC-EP reached to ‘end the armed conflict and build a stable and lasting peace

Conference, symposium - History
The history of military operations - sources, subjects, methods
Ce colloque aura donc une double ambition : contribuer à doter l’histoire des opérations militaires d’un fondement épistémologique qui lui a souvent fait défaut ; examiner comment, ainsi consolidée, elle peut répondre aux attentes de l’institution militaire dans la diversité de ses déclinaisons. Les opérations seront appréhendées dans une longue durée remontant à l’Antiquité et allant jusqu’au temps présent. Trois thèmes principaux seront explorés : les sources, les objets, les méthodes.
