Post-War: the 1920, construction of a new world?
Selon une perspective d’histoire transnationale et d’histoire comparée, il s’agit ici de faire le point sur la littérature la plus récente consacrée aux années vingt sous l’angle de la circulation des modèles, de l’importance des réseaux constitués à l’échelle européenne ou dans les espaces atlantiques, des mouvements transnationaux et des logiques de rivalité et de solidarité. Nous nous intéresserons tout particulièrement à l’irruption de nouveaux acteurs et de nouveaux enjeux sur la scène internationale, aux phénomènes transnationaux ayant traversé les sociétés de la péninsule Ibérique et de l’Amérique latine et au positionnement des acteurs de ces pays face aux défis de l’après-première guerre mondiale.

La journée d'étude se propose d'explorer, à travers un large éventail de sources et d’animaux, les relations qui unissent noblesse et animal au Moyen Âge et à l'époque moderne, dans les mondes hispaniques et lusophones. Les réflexions se situeront à la croisée de deux axes d'étude principaux ; celui de la noblesse par l'animal, d'une part, qui fait de l’animal l'un des éléments identifiants et identitaires indispensables à une certaine ostentation aristocratique. Le deuxième axe de réflexion sera celui de la noblesse de l’animal. Mise en lumière par une branche novatrice de la recherche, elle prend en considération l’animal non plus seulement comme compagnon de l’homme mais comme un individu à part entière qui possède sa propre identité et sa propre noblesse.

18th issue of "Verbum et Lingua"
Issue 18 of Verbum et Lingua will publish research and reflection articles on Situated Teaching. We welcome articles that focus on the various emerging pedagogical practices in language teaching that embrace experiential, reflective practice, situated projects,problem-based learning, etc. This paradigm presents new challenges for schools, teachers and learners and raises a series of questions: What consequences does this pedagogical proposal imply for teachers, both in their training and in their practice? What consequences does it represent for the learner? How does it transform the school in its relationship with society?

Health: New Challenges for Development
« Revue internationale des études du développement », n°247 (2021-3)
A call for papers on health and development cannot but mention the current pandemic crisis. While international aid in the health sector has been rather stagnant of late, the Covid-19 pandemic could put health and infectious diseasesback at the heart of long-run priorities, particularly in countries of the South. While the African continent remains relatively unaffected, low-income countries share several characteristics: fragile and poorly funded healthcare systems that currently seem to be coping nonetheless, as well as a significant burden due to endemic health problems, including non communicable diseases. An integrated, unified approach to public and environmental health at different scales therefore seems more necessary than ever, especially in the context of climate change. This global crisis therefore provides new opportunities to better interlink the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and rethink the health and development nexus.

Conference, symposium - Geography
Population, Time, Territories (CIST2020)
The latest in the series of Collège international des sciences territoriales (FR2007 CIST) conferences, this 5th international conference spotlights the concept of population as a central issue in the debates within territorial sciences. The concept of population, which is central to demography and biology and more marginal for other disciplines, involves the grouping together of individual entities. Depending on the particular approach used, the preferred criterion for aggregation will be the social, territorial, biological, etc., with timescales and observation scales varying accordingly. Linking together population, time and territory in a transdisciplinary and international perspective is the main goal of this conference; beyond the fact that it represents a theoretical and methodological breakthrough, the diversity of the proposed thematic sessions is a clear sign that this trio is at the heart of contemporary issues.

Trade unions, conflictand direct action in the Americas and in Europe
From the end of the 19th century to the 1980s
Le syndicalisme peut se définir, sur un plan général, comme un outil collectif de défense des intérêts matériels et moraux d'un groupe de salarié·e·s, organisé·e·s par métier ou par branche d'activité ou, de manière croissante au cours du XXe siècle, sur une base intercatégorielle. Très tôt, dès la fin du XIXe, et indépendamment des régimes politiques au sein desquels il évolue, les militant·e·s syndicaux·le·s se posent la question des modalités d'action collective et de défense des intérêts moraux et matériels du mouvement ouvrier, entendu au sens large du terme. L'action du Premier mai 1886 à Chicago et le massacre de Haymarket Square, qui lui succède, le 4 mai, sont, en ce sens, des moments fondateurs de la période à laquelle le colloque sera consacré.

"Mitad del mundo" - the Equator
Images of the Equator - international exports / Equatorial representations internationally
Les tortues des Îles Galapagos, les têtes réduites de Jivaro, les neiges éternelles du Chimborazo, les chapeaux Panama… Autant de symboles mondialement connus qui ont pour point commun de venir d'Équateur. Ils interrogent les dynamiques de circulations internationales des idées, des personnes, des objets, questionnent l'exportation de la culture équatorienne à travers le monde et les processus de construction d'imaginaires sur l'Équateur dans le monde. À l'inverse, ils invitent également à s'intéresser à la manière dont ils sont perçus en Équateur, loin des arènes internationales. Ces dynamiques seront l'objet de la journée d'étude consacrée à l'Équateur et le monde. Comment l'Équateur s'expose sur la scène internationale ? Comment des mouvements internationaux ou transnationaux sont-ils appropriés, traduits, adaptés en Équateur ? Comment circulent les objets et les personnes équatorien.nes à travers le monde ? Afin de répondre à ces questions, nous proposons d'organiser la journée en trois tables rondes.

Statues, memories and representations during the decolonial era
Nakan journal, no.1. A cultural studies journal
Nakan aims to impulse innovation in the epistemological field of cultural margins. To this effect, the journal’s first issue will focus on the following theme: “Statuary, Memories, and Representations in the Decolonial Era”. The objective is to elucidate the recent events that saw the degradation of statues representing historical figures linked to slavery or colonialism in multiple parts of the Caribbean, Africa, Europe, and the United States. This topical issue fits in a context-based reflection on margins spurred by such social movements as Black Lives Matter, among others. What could be the core motivations leading to such actions? The journal invites scholars to a scientific investigation on statuaries and colonial discourse, heritage, memory, myth, and coterminous questions.

La revue Histoire, médecine et santé lance un appel à contributions pour un dossier thématique portant sur les données médicales. Le big data s’est aujourd’hui imposé dans le champ de la santé : les données en grand nombre sont mobilisées dans la recherche biomédicale, pour diagnostiquer la maladie ou bien envisager un traitement. Nous aimerions que ce numéro thématique questionne la notion de données médicales dans un temps long, en partant du principe qu’elles constituent tous les éléments mobilisés par les soignant·e·s et les chercheurs·euses pour appréhender l’état de santé des individus et leurs éventuelles pathologies. Il s’agit notamment de réfléchir aux mécanismes de pouvoir sur les corps produits par un regard médical fondé sur l’élaboration de données sérielles et d’investiguer la manière dont elle façonne les savoirs médicaux et la définition même des pathologies.

Borders in the Americas – Integration, Security and Migrations
In the aftermath of the collapse of the Soviet Union, many analysts and experts argued that the world had reached the “end of history” [Fukuyama, 1992] and that regional and local organizations and free trade agreements (among which the European Union appeared to be a model of integration) signaled the emergence of a world without borders. Yet, thirty years later, the reality seems to be altogether different. Today, it is clear that “borders are back”. Whether these borders are challenged, violated, transcended, consolidated, or integrated, they remain necessarily at the heart of the political debate. This symposium will focus on a specific geographic area: the Americas.

Conference, symposium - Europe
The colloquium is dedicated to the problems of the material record generated by the State during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. It is a period of transition to the Modern State and it is a moment of intensification of the material manifestations of a state nature. The colloquium is organised in three sessions: the first session will deal with the material exhibition of royal power. The second session focuses on the territorialisation of the State. The third one is centered on the autonomous development of the State beyond the monarchy.

What happened with the LGBTQI+ "rights revolution" in Latin America?
Nr. 99 - Cahiers des Amériques latines
Ten years after Argentina's emblematic "same-sex marriage" law, this issue of Cahiers des Amériques Latines examines the notion of a "rights revolution" [Encarnación, 2016] and takes stock of the situation of sexual and gender minorities in the region. Three lines of research seem essential to propose a critical reflection on the reality of sexual and gender minorities and to evaluate the LGBTQI+ "rights revolution" in Latin America.

5th International "Language and Territory" Colloquium
This multidisciplinary colloquium will discuss the different ways that languages and territories are linked, and will show the political, social and economic stakes that arise from the relationships between them. Above all, these terms refer to men and women with their social practices and representations, at the core of the logic of territoriality. New territories give rise to new language practices, which, in turn, create new spaces, discourse and meaning. The "boundaries" we draw between languages and territories are permeable in time and space, depending on factors such as population displacement, language policies, linguistic and social representations, education, mass media and socio-cultural values.

How to talk about the environment? Do we really need new heroes/heralds?
Does the earth need heroes and heralds to save it, to protect it? From exhibitions with evocative titles to the “small steps” of Nicolas Hulot who resigned as minister on 28 August 2018, on a French national radio station, we are constantly confronted with this crucial problem: how to communicate on the environmental crisis.
