Health influencers? The voices of bodies of the social networks
Dans une période de prolifération de contenus numériques et médiatiques portant sur la santé, le bien-être et le lifestyle, nous souhaitons explorer l’influence en ligne dans le cadre de la santé. Cette journée s’intéresse à l’influence exercée par les patient·es, les praticien·es ou les usager·es des politiques de santé, à travers l’animation d’un ou plusieurs comptes sur les réseaux sociaux. Ceux-ci offrent à ces internautes la possibilité de sensibiliser leur communauté d’abonnés, les espaces publics numériques constituant des nouvelles arènes de déploiement d’un type d’influence axé sur la construction dialogique de l’identité en ligne.

Intersectional Challenges in Afroeuropean Communities
8th Biennial Afroeuropeans Network Conference
The conference aims to consider how Afroeuropean communities are shaped by the intersections of ‘race’ and ethnicity with other markers of identification such as gender, class, sexuality, ability, age, citizenship status, language… Informed by intersectional thinking and its rejection of unidimensional perspectives in activism, policy and research, the conference explores how diverse processes of privileging and discrimination interact, making for complex and dynamic experiences of what it means to be Afroeuropean. It acknowledges that the racial and ethnic alterity of Afroeuropeans intersects with other identities (e.g. male, female, queer, working class, religious, disabled, aged…) and specifically seeks to examine to what extent these intersections create new alignments and opportunities.

Clothing, fashion and resistance
The Association belge de science politique (ABSP) and the Associations francophones de science politique (CoSPoF) congress 2021
Des soutiens-gorges jetés par les féministes américaines dans les « poubelles de la liberté » à la nudité des Femen, du polo Fred Perry des suprémacistes américains aux tee-shirts no logo des altermondialistes, du béret du Che au keffieh d’Arafat, le vêtement, et parfois son absence, nourrit le spectre des résistances, alimente la scénographie des contestations, leur confère une visibilité quitte à jouer, comme les Black Blocs, sur l’anonymat protecteur. Ce projet comprendra trois axes : le rôle du vêtement dans la construction des antagonismes, sa place dans les processus de mobilisation et son étude en tant que vecteur de circulation interculturelle des modalités de la résistance.

Associated worlds. The living in all their states
Communications journal (2022)
Des recherches, renouant avec les notions de coopération, voire d’altruisme, renouvellent la question des rapports des humains avec la nature et les autres vivants. S’appuyant sur ces études, dans le contexte d'inquiétudes écologiques croissantes, divers courants critiques, alternatifs ou militants entendent développer des perspectives opposées à celles de la loi de la jungle et de la consommation destructrice. Cet appel à contribution porte sur ces expériences et modes de vie conformes à de nouvelles philosophies des rapports avec la nature et ses vivants, tant en France qu’à l’étranger. On attend des enquêtes sociologiques ou ethnographiques, animées par un regard anthropologique et/ou historique.

Conference, symposium - Representation
LGBTI and Queer Art, Culture and Activism
In France, a few years after the law authorizing same-sex marriage, LGBTQ associations are now facing new struggles, fighting for access to assisted procreation or the creation of a communal archive center. Drawing on these dynamics, this conference aims at interrogating the bonds between LGBTQ forms of arts, cultures and activisms. We look forward to opening a space for academics and grassroots activists, whether they be engaged in institutional collectives or not, to exchange, reflect and dialogue. LGBTQ-related topics appear to be often overlooked in French research networks. We aim to make it more visible and richer, and make it dialogue with local, national and international networks of academics and activists. The « LGBTI and Queer Art, Culture and Activism » online conference is jointly organised by the Université de Lorraine and its research centres (2L2S and CREM), with the support of the French ministry of culture (DRAC Grand-Est), and the LGBTIQ centre Couleurs Gaies.

Labour and Migration in the Age of Borders
The recent focus in politics and the media on the “migration crisis” and the rise of populisms in Europe is an invitation to interrogate migrations in the light of geopolitical, ethical or identity approaches. With this thematic issue we wish to complement, not contradict, these approaches by reintroducing the economic dimension of migration through a study of the multiple forms of work and labor; and address the entanglements between migration policy and work. This special issue asks the following question: what can we learn from the exploration of migrant labor in an age of advanced capitalism and border consolidation? It will look at the relation between migratory statuses, legal and professional situations, under a juridical and socio-economic perspective: at the articulation of power relations within forms of migrant labor; at the impact of processes of borderization on the various worlds of labor; at the forms of resistance to exploitation and subjugation of migrant workers or employees working with migrants. These multiple forms of action at the margins indicate that rather than being depoliticized, labor — and especially labor as it is transformed by migration — remains today a privileged site for understanding the political effects of greater flexibility when it comes to working conditions, the denial of recognition for workers and the hidden face of authoritarian capitalism.

Urgent issue of The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge
This special issue, Tilting, seeks to take up themes that have animated the Blackwood’s program and mandate throughout the last several years: questions of connectivity, the challenges of public and private space, community and/in isolation; imperatives to re-structure modes and methodologies of care, including revaluing care work, confronting collective care responsibilities within colonial and capitalist structures, and engaging with the infrastructures, aesthetics, contestations, and radical possibilities of mutual aid; responses to the precarization of art, labour, and life; interest in what modes of knowledge production, circulation, and re-distribution are vital to us now, and how these networks might take new form. These urgencies continue to drive Blackwood programming (and this forthcoming publication), supporting and activating artists, curators, and writers who incite us to be responsive, critical, and answerable.

Communists and the challenge of gender
À l'occasion du centième anniversaire du congrès de Tours et de la création du parti communiste en France, cette journée d’étude suivie d’une table ronde grand public porte sur l’histoire des communistes à l’épreuve du genre, en privilégiant une approche par le bas, attentive aux itinéraires, aux identités et aux expériences militantes, et à ce qu’elles révèlent des représentations de la masculinité et de la féminité, dans les mondes communistes militants.

Comparative perspectives in social sciences
Ce séminaire sera l’occasion de fédérer la communauté des chercheurs s’intéressant aux questions liées au sport et de les faire discuter avec des chercheurs extérieurs à l’objet « sport » mais qui développent des questionnements théoriques similaires ou mobilisent des approches épistémologiques et méthodologiques communes.
