  Archives in movement: twenty years of the Centres for Documentation in Working Class and Social History Collective (CODHOS)

  À l'occasion de son vingtième anniversaire, le Collectif des centres de documentation en histoire ouvrière et sociale (CODHOS), dont les membres vivent et accompagnent au quotidien ces bouleversements, organise deux journées d’études pluridisciplinaires autour des sources de l’histoire sociale. Elles seront l’occasion de poursuivre les missions qu'il s'est fixées lors de sa création : organiser et favoriser les rencontres et les échanges entre chercheur·e·s en sciences sociales et archivistes, bibliothécaires, documentalistes et autres professionnel·le·s de la conservation, sur cette relation entre l’événement social et historique, l’archive produite et l’utilisation qui en est faite.

  Forms of trade regulation

  The spatial implications of trade regulations (Middle Ages and Early Modern Times)

  After the three meetings in 2017, 2018, and 2019, the investigation into The forms of trade regulations in medieval and modern Europe continues with a fourth and final international conference on the spatial dimension of professional regulations. While Europe, in a broad sense, has been chosen as a starting point, papers could also consider other cultural areas or colonial experiences. The diffusion and spatial concentration of these different types of regulations in medieval and early modern societies can thus be investigated on various scales: from the much discussed area of influence of local trade associations to the norms that apply to larger territories or networks, such as the legislations on prices and wages adopted by several kingdoms after the end of the 13th century, the Hanseatic Leagues, the inspection of factories, journeymen’s associations, and so on.

  Tilting

  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.

  Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)

  The COST Action “Islamic Legacy: Narratives East, West, South, North of the Mediterranean (1350-1750)” [CA 18129] is launching a call for a conference “Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)”. The event that we are disseminating is being organised within this project, which as the purpose to provide a transnational and interdisciplinary approach capable of overcoming the segmentation that currently characterizes the study of relations between Christianity and Islam in late medieval and early modern Europe and the Mediterranean. We aim to create a network that will help to provide a comprehensive understanding of past relations between Christianity and Islam in the European context through the addressing of three main research problems: otherness, migration and borders.

  Out of the studio. Photographers and mobile studios

  Le numéro 2 de la revue Photographica entend explorer une histoire matérielle et visuelle du studio photographique mobile entendu comme déplacement hors les murs d’une activité professionnelle spécialisée. Une attention spéciale sera accordée aux dispositifs et usages des studios hors les murs, en ne limitant pas la question à celle du portrait, et en envisageant ces mobilités photographiques du point de vue du travail, du matériel, des pratiques des photographes et de la diffusion de la photographie. L'un des enjeux de ce numéro thématique est d'avancer dans le travail d'historicisation et de géographisation de ce phénomène peu étudié.
