  Cybercriminalité et cybersécurité au Cameroun et en Afrique

  Représentations, manifestations, financement et traitements des menaces

  Due to the exponential increase in the cybercriminality phenomena, the development of huge investments in digitalization, the adoption of a law on cyber security and cybercriminality, as well as a national policy of cyber security, Cameroon has become a new center of gravity and reference of cyber security in Central Africa ; even if knowledge on the phenomenon is still fragmentary. Prior to the opening of a Professional Master on cyber security and security governance at the University of Dschang, this colloquium is geared towards reflecting on the complexity and the stakes of cyber security. It enables a complementary cross-view of issues of mutual interest with regards to the question of cyber security.

  Jacques Ellul and Violence

  PJCV seeks articles exploring themes of conflict and violence in the life, work, thought, and intellectual legacy of Jacques Ellul (1912-1994). An “atypical, uncategorizable thinker, transgressing disciplinary borders” (François Dosse), Ellul penned a vast corpus of provocative and original writings in two broad categories: first, sociological writings analyzing elements of twentieth-century western society as expressions of technique (understood as a rational and willful drive will towards ordered efficiency); second, essays in protestant theological ethics and meditative biblical interpretation. These writings bring the voices of Ellul’s three major influences—Søren Kierkegaard, Karl Marx, and the Swiss Protestant theologian Karl Barth—into stimulating dialectical conversation about politics, technology, art, media, communications, institutional evolution, morality, language, anarchy, revolution, urbanism—and notably, violence.

  Environmental justice - the challenge of effectivity

  Les institutions judicaires et le droit de l’environnent sont désormais bousculés par la question de l’effectivité du droit, c’est-à-dire l’urgence d’une application concrète des règles de droit et tout particulièrement des règles favorisant la transition écologique. L’objet de ce cycle de conférences est donc de tenter de répondre à la question de l’effectivité qui oblige à redéfinir les notions croisant justice et environnement. Deux voies s’ouvrent. D’abord, classique, la voie de la redéfinition des notions traditionnelles du contentieux et du droit de l’environnement sous le coup de l’effectivité. Ensuite, plus innovante, la voie de l’épistémologie du droit, imposée par la question de son effectivité qui convoque désormais les sciences de la nature et les sciences sociales.
