    Post-soviet diaspora(s) in Western Europe (1991-2017)

    Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, millions of former soviet citizens crossed the national borders in search of better lives in new countries, in what was the biggest migration tide since the end of World War II. These Post-Soviet migrants were diverse in origins, strategies and expectations. They often represented a challenge to the orthodox views of migration processes, since in most cases these flows could not be easily described and analysed following commonly accepted theoretical frameworks. Everybody seemed to be on the move: labour migrants, political refugees, cross-border traders, “tourists” planning to forget their return... and in a short period, they spread all over Western Europe.

    The Jewish family in Europe and the Mediterranean from the Middle Ages to our days

    The history of the family is at the center of a considerable historiographical renewal that has marked Jewish studies during the last decades. The medievalists were the first to widely study small groups and Jewish family networks in order to better understand the settlement and diffusion of the Jewish population in a territory or their relations with the majoritarian society. Being particularly heterogeneous, the Jewish diaspora is traditionally divided into several groups and factions dependent on ritual practices, geographic provenances and affiliations or legal traditions, more or less influenced by the local contexts the different Jewish populations were settled in.

    Mixed weddings in European societies - 18th-21st centuries

    For a social history of cross-cultural marriage

    Les migrations contemporaines et les interrogations croissantes sur les juxtapositions de groupes religieux ou ethniques différents ont stimulé ces dernières décennies un intérêt évident pour la question de la mixité matrimoniale dans le monde d’aujourd’hui, mais aussi dans les sociétés anciennes. Se proposant d’aller plus loin dans le sens d’une histoire sociale de la mixité matrimoniale dans les sociétés européennes, tout en la réinscrivant dans une perspective comparative et de plus longue durée (de la fin du XVIIIe siècle à nos jours).

    Mixed marriages in the European societies, 18th-21th century

    For a social history of the matrimonial mixity

    Les migrations contemporaines et les interrogations croissantes sur les juxtapositions de groupes religieux ou ethniques différents ont stimulé ces dernières décennies un intérêt évident pour la question de la mixité matrimoniale dans le monde d’aujourd’hui, mais aussi dans les sociétés anciennes. Dans le champ historique, cet intérêt a été en outre renforcé par le développement spécifique de plusieurs axes de recherches : l’histoire des migrations, des réseaux marchands, des diasporas, des sociétés urbaines, ou encore des sociétés coloniales.
