  Homosexuality in conflict

  Ce séminaire de recherche propose de revisiter les violences du vingtième siècle à l’aune des rapports de genre et de sexualité, plus particulièrement les « homosexualités en conflit ». Il sera évidemment question des homosexualités dans les conflits armés (guerre franco-prussienne, guerres mondiales) et dans la Shoah. Néanmoins la notion de conflit sera élargie aux luttes politiques et sexuelles autour et à l’intérieur des mouvements de défense des droits des gays et lesbiennes dans les années 1970-1980 et à leur mémorialisation. Enfin, le conflit passe aussi par un combat pour une reconnaissance institutionnelle des archives LGBT+.

  Prisons, Prisoners and Prison Records in Historical Perspective

  The rise of the prison as an institution of mass incarceration for offenders has for long fascinated researchers. In part, this is due to the unusually detailed nature of most prison records. The wide availability of somewhat similar sources across diverse European and European-derived societies provides criminologists, social and economic historians, demographers and other social scientists with rich collections of personal information that have been analysed intensively since the 1970s. The increasing power of software and hardware and the accumulation of very large quantities of prison data, some of it linked to other sources, offers challenges and opportunities for researchers today. The workshop responds to the challenge of harnessing criminal justice records by bringing together scholars in different disciplines and countries to share information about their sources, methodologies of classification and analysis, and to reconceptualize research paradigms.
