  Seminar - Sociology

  Arts and ageing

  La thématique du lien entre l’art et l’âge, et plus précisément celle du vieillissement, reste peu explorée par les sciences sociales, tout particulièrement par la sociologie, alors même que les mondes de l’art, tout comme les publics sont directement impactés par le phénomène général de vieillissement en Occident. Le séminaire entend explorer les effets de l’âge, variable tant biologique que sociale, à la fois sur le processus créatif, sur les processus de médiation et sur la réception artistique.

  Seminar - Sociology

  Maintaining/supporting: fragility as a mode of existence

  The seminar starts with one observation: the proliferation of research that deals with care, or attention, investigating the climate or Gaia, the art of repairing objects or conserving artworks, the maintenance of technical networks, or the right ways to consider vulnerable or marginalised people. Philosophically, critically, politically, what does it take to support fragile entities? We less take fragility as a state that defines some of us than as a shared way of grasping open realities, rough but rich in possibilities, requiring forms of attention that make us sensitive to these calls. Playing a part in this momentum, in the wake of the resumption of pragmatism or pluralistic anthropologies, we will discuss these researches of a new kind. By connecting them, the aim is to unfold the forms of inquiry, writing and action that these studies require and permit to reinvent, while reformulating the concepts that may support this movement.

  The '68 moment in Lyon, in the school, university and educative environment - protest, change, resistance and trajectories

  Le colloque « Le moment 68 à Lyon en milieu scolaire, universitaire et éducatif : contestations, mutations, résistances, trajectoires » vise à étudier l'attitude des milieux éducatifs lyonnais pendant le moment Mai 1968 (donc en ayant en perspective l'amont et l'aval des événements de mai-juin). Il s'intéressera bien entendu aux mouvements lycéens et étudiants. Mais il vise à étendre à l'analyse à des secteurs de l'enseignement souvent négligés (enseignement technique, écoles normales d'instituteurs et d'institutrices, IUT, etc.), en s'ouvrant même à d'autres secteurs que l'Éducation nationale : conservatoires, écoles des beaux-arts, milieux de l'éducation populaire...

  Creating the child audience: media and the invention of modern American childhood in the late XIXth and XIXth centuries

  "Transatlantica" special issue

  This Transatlantica issue sets out to examine how, in the process of creating new audiences for its products, child-centric media crafted a homogenizing vision of childhood especially compatible with media consumption. As a result, in the course of the late XIX^th and XX^th centuries, media has made itself the vehicle of adult norms and expectations about children’s tastes, behaviors and development – be it to pander to existing tastes and behaviors or shape them to ideal standards, some civic-minded (with emphasis on social adjustment, character building, or good citizenship), some commercial, and others both at once.

  Toys and material culture : Hybridisation, design and consumption

  The predominant theme for the 8^th ITRA conference is “Toys and material culture: Hybridisation, design and consumption”. Beyond toys, the conference will explore the place of tangible objects and novel forms of material culture in play. What are the similarities and the differences, the relationships, between toys and other material devices, such as board games, cards, digital games and media-connected objects? Are there, in play, or in the trans-mediated toys themselves, new forms of materiality?
