    Haïti: An Earthquake for Gender

    Revue internationale des études du développement - 2019/3

    This special issue aims at bringing to light scientific knowledge which counterbalances thestereotyping of Haitian and Caribbean women’s rights. For centuries, Haitian women have beendeeply marked by the geostrategic interests of various world powers, and they are still the object of narratives whose androcentrism is explicit. This sp ecial issue will provide an opportunity to debate Haitian women’s varied experiencesthrough new epistemic and political postures, questioning western perceptions of Haiti. Thus, it will contribute to developing research largely based on practices, experiences, ideas, and theories produced in the Caribbean with an awareness for the logics of coloniality. The aim will be to bring to light an emerging literature in Haiti and, more broadly, in the French-speaking Caribbean. It will also place recent changes in the context of structural historicity, what tookplace since 2010 also being explained by structural mutations which began prior to the earthquake.

    Cultures, arts and peripheral literatures in the Americas

    A transnational approach to production, circulation and reception

    Après une première édition en 2018 à l’université de La Rochelle consacrée à la culture périphérique dans le Brésil contemporain (littérature, cinéma, blog et saraus), cette seconde journée d’études  souhaite élargir la réflexion sur les formes d’expression artistique des périphéries à tout le continent américain aux XXe-XXIe siècles. Des voix / voies alternatives et ex-centriques émanent des saraus / tertulias poéticas / poetic gathering, des slams, du street art, des blogs, d’une fiction « marginale » (et  marginalisée) et participent à la transformation des récits nationaux. Pouvons-nous donc, dans le cadre de ces mouvements culturels périphériques américains, établir des similitudes tant sur les interrogations que sur les revendications de ces mouvements ? Sont-ils transposables d’un pays à l’autres de la zone Amériques ou bien sont-ils une émanation de réalités différentes des trois aires géographiques ?
