  Revolutionary cosmopolitanism. Transnational migration and political activism, 1815-1848

  The period 1815-1848 not only was characterized by several waves of revolution in Europe, the Atlantic world and beyond, but also by large movements of migration. Although these migrations can often be associated with political uprisings, only few connections have been made between the study of migration history and history of political thought and practices. This one-day conference aims to bring together these different strands of research and to discuss how experiences of migration and cross-boundary mobility contributed to the formation of common revolutionary cultures in the period 1815-1848.

  Discourse, pratices and tools used in the migration/development relationship: circulation, innovation and resistance to the South

  Panel - APAD conference 2020

  How do texts, practices and tools related to the “migration and development” debate circulate? This panel offers to analyse the processes of imposition, translation or hybridization, along with “travelling models”, and the appropriation or resistance experiences of the different categories of actors involved in migration/development governance. We examine the transnational circulation of texts and narratives that have become references for development practitioners in the Global South; the performativity of technical and managerial instruments, case models and “good practices”; the changes in the intermediaries and brokers categories.

  The papacy of Pious XII (1939-58) on the eve of the opening of the vatican archives

  Historiographical appraisals and research perspectives

  L’ouverture, prévue pour le 2 mars 2020, des archives vaticanes concernant le pontificat de Pie XII (1939-1958) a suscité un vif engouement. La richesse des archives romaines, qui débordent les enjeux strictement confessionnels, devrait permettre d’interroger à nouveaux frais cette période complexe et cruciale de l’histoire de l’Europe et du monde. Dans ce contexte, ce séminaire entend établir un état des lieux de l’historiographie abondante – et souvent polarisée – sur le pontificat du pape Pacelli, mais aussi identifier les thématiques innovantes et susceptibles de fédérer les recherches à venir en histoire et en sciences sociales.
