Five research assistant positions for the project "Decoding Antisemitsm"
For a 3-year research project on anti-semitic hate speech and hate images on the internet, research assistants are wanted. A qualitative linguistic content analysis of social media comments and analysis of image material and text-image relationships related to antisemitic content is planned. In addition, quantitative linguistic methods will also be applied to the social media corpus. For the country teams we are seeking two doctoral students for the English language area, two for the French language area and one for the German language area.

Queer activism and aesthetics in African literature
Congress of the Association pour l'étude des littératures africaines (APELA)
Ce congrès propose une exploration des littératures, du cinéma et des arts performatifs africains de toutes les langues et de toutes les régions d’Afrique y compris le Maghreb et les diasporas, au prisme des théories, activismes et esthétiques queer. Il s’agira tout autant d’aborder un corpus encore peu usité dans la recherche francophone, que d’analyser le lien entre esthétique, savoir et activisme dans le contexte des luttes pour la reconnaissance des homo- et transsexuels et d’autres minorités sexuelles et de genre en Afrique.

Figures and Perspectives on the Mass and the Individual in Capitalist Modernity (19th-21st century)
How is it possible to use the notion of mass without making it collapse into a complete condemnation of collective action or into an acritical celebration of the crowd? From there on, the relationship between mass and individual can be addressed in many fashions: Are there any specific ways for the mass to organize itself as a political subject? What are means whereby artworks represent and transform the linkage between mass and individual? What are the mutations undergone by the mass qua object of the social sciences? How does capitalist modernity affect the moral and psychic autonomy of individuals?

Franco-German comparison
Quels sont les outils juridiques mobilisés pour lutter contre le harcèlement professionnel ? Comment les juges les mettent-ils en œuvre ? Les différences observables sont-elles le fruit de l'histoire juridique nationale ou la conséquence d'un contexte socio-économique particulier ? Ces questions seront abordés dans un cadre comparatif franco-allemand lors de trois étapes successives. La première consistera à identifier les notions juridiques utilisées et à clarifier le vocabulaire. La seconde portera sur les obligations de l'employeur en matière de harcèlement. La troisième aura trait au mécanisme probatoire spécifique utilisé en matière de harcèlement. Lors de chacune de ces étapes, un binôme franco-allemand effectuera une présentation du thème étudiée, qui sera suivie d'échanges entre les participants.

Between Life and Existence. Nietzsche and French Existentialism
Our symposium therefore aims to close this research gap by including all relevant disciplines (philosophy, literary studies, history of ideas ...). Contributions can deal with biographical aspects of the subject (to what extent did the French existentialists really read Nietzsche?), comparisons of the respective philosophies, or with questions pertaining to the topicality of the theses and matters discussed. We endeavor to cover the travel and accommodation costs for the speakers, but cannot guarantee them at the present time.

Research and innovation practices in non-academic settings in Europe (17th-21th Centuries)
The aim of this conference is to examine the production of scientific, medical, technical and artistic knowledge in non-academic settings in Europe between the 17th and 21st centuries. The point is to understand who these non-academic social actors were, and to study the interactions between their research conditions, the knowledge produced and its reception. No presupposition on the marginality of or indeed centrality of said social actors should be deduced from the wording of the question. On the contrary, it calls for a study of the complex interactions between social and scholarly social spheres.

"The grass is always greener" - gardens and politics
Franco-German histories, experiences and perspectives
Le CEREG (EA 4223) de l’Université de Nanterre, l’équipe de recherche « Mondes allemands » (EA 1577) de l’Université Paris VIII Vincennes Saint-Denis, l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Versailles et la fondation Fürst-Pückler-Park Bad Muskau organisent, du 14 au 16 mai 2020 un colloque franco-allemand sur le thème « “Sortir de l’enclos” : jardins et politique(s). Histoires, expériences et perspectives franco-allemandes ». Il s'agira de s’interroger sur les liens qu’ont entretenus, depuis le XVIIe siècle, les jardins avec la politique en France et en Allemagne, mais aussi d’examiner de récentes initiatives où le jardin, compris comme processus vivant, se transforme en lieu d’expression de la démocratie et de la citoyenneté. L’histoire des deux pays, parfois adverse et souvent intimement mêlée, incite en effet à tendre des miroirs pour révéler des mouvements et aspirations profondes des deux sociétés, étudier les contrastes et transferts mutuels, et croiser les études de terrain dans ce domaine encore peu exploré qu’est l'art comparé des jardins.
