  Maritime realities and imaginations in the Indian Ocean

  Carnets de Recherches de l'océan Indien et Revue numérique de l'Observatoire des Sociétés de l'Océan Indien

   The main thrust of this third issue of Les Carnets is the oceanic interface of the Indian Ocean, as both a real and an imagined space. While academic inquiry haslargely focused on its resources and marine reserves, this third issue of Les Carnets endeavours to widen the existing perimeter and bring together texts that shed new light on the maritime dimension of the Indian Ocean. We welcome proposals in the areas ofgeography, law, history, literature, linguistics, and economics. Can we say that there is a distinct community of Indian Ocean inhabitants sharing values and interests as well as a common past that distinguish them from the other societies in their respective continents? Are there realities and a common imaginary for the peoples of this marine expanse? Or on the contrary, given the immensity of the Indian Ocean, would it seem that specificities and peculiarities dominate and fragment, overshadowing such a hypothesis ?

  German lecturers in Belgium - the circulation of legal knowledge and law teaching

  Circulation des savoirs juridiques et enseignement du droit

  L’histoire des transferts culturels fait preuve aujourd’hui d’un dynamisme inédit. La relecture récente des phénomènes nationaux à la lumière des échanges internationaux et des flux transnationaux contribue à redéfinir la façon dont les frontières nationales sont à considérer, particulièrement pour le XIXe siècle où le modèle de l’État-nation s’est développé. L’importance des mouvements transnationaux affecte des domaines à la fois politiques, économiques, sociaux ou encore scientifiques. Le droit et les savoirs juridiques ne sont évidemment pas exempts de ces transferts. Les transferts culturels et la circulation des savoirs reposent sur un substrat de facteurs variés. Se pencher sur la question des professeurs de droit allemands en Belgique ce n’est pas s’éprendre uniquement de la question du droit, de l’enseignement du droit et des influences entre aires nationales juridiques. C’est également aborder des terrains qui ont trait à l’histoire des idées, des migrations, de la science et plus globalement de la vie académique.

  The history of law publications (16th-21st century)

  Un état des lieux

  La prise de conscience pourtant chez les juristes d’un intérêt pour l’enseignement de leur discipline, puis pour ceux d’entre eux qui avaient laissé des traces théoriques comme pratiques, en métropole, dans les colonies, comme à l’étranger, ne pouvait pas négliger un axe essentiel de la transmission de la pensée juridique : l’étude du livre juridique et de son édition par laquelle il acquiert un statut autonome de relais incontournable du droit. Le moment est sans doute venu de réfléchir à un état des lieux de cette question selon les cinq axes des acteurs, des usages, des finalités, des formes et de la circulation de la littérature juridique.

  Power, authority and normativity

  Brussels medieval culture and war conference

  The 2018 edition of the medieval culture and war conference will take place at the Saint-Louis University, Brussels, and will focus on the theme of “Power, Authority and Normativity”. An omnipresent phenomenon, war was a dominant social fact that impacted every aspect of society in the Middle Ages. Moving away from so-called “histoire-bataille” that studied war on its own as an isolated succession of battles, historiography has moved towards investigation of how military conflicts influenced the economic, legal, political, religious, and social spheres in the Middle Ages.
