Religious pathways to better futures

Religious groups in Africa are not only an important source of imaginations of the future they are also remarkably active in their efforts to realize them. Thereby different religious groups articulate quite different visions on the future of their society, of Africa, the world or of mankind and follow different ways to pursue their goals: some groups might opt for public prayers, some for violence, some see in education the best way to realize their visions, some form political parties, and still others search for support in transnational networks or establish faith-based-organizations and try to link their future imaginaries to those of the donors in the world of development. Thus, looking at differing religious visions on the future and at the ways they are translated into practice, raises questions about the forms of public religion and interest articulation in a national and transnational setting as well as questions about religious diversity within a society.

From a Sudan to Another

Political and Social Restructuring Underway

The CEDEJ-Khartoum and the CFEE-Addis Ababa are organizing a roundtable conference in Addis Ababa on June 10-12, 2013 regarding Sudans’ reconstruction. The separation between the two Sudans in July 2011 opens new research fields in social sciences. The analysis themes regarding ongoing political and social restructuration are various, and for a majority of them, not much studied, given the recentness of the partition. Therefore, the CEDEJ-Khartoum and the CFEE-Addis Ababa launched a scientific dialogue process on Sudans. That work finds its originality in the will to give an academic content to the debate, often missing in official talks. Moreover, this process of prolific scientific meetings contributes to compensate for the lack of current and searched academic works led by Sudanese and South Sudanese researchers together. The 2013 conference aims at opening the debate to a large panel discussion, in the perspective of publishing the conference’s proceedings.

Cinquantenaire des indépendances africaines : acteurs politiques marginalisés, oubliés, ressuscités

À l’occasion du cinquantenaire des indépendances africaines, les pays d’Afrique de l’Est et leurs diasporas, la communauté scientifique internationale ou encore les anciennes puissances coloniales dressent le bilan des réussites et des échecs économiques, sociaux et politiques. On constate cependant que ces inventaires, centrés sur les bouleversements des structures sociales, économiques et politiques, parfois sur les mémoires des pères de la nation et des grands récits nationalistes, négligent généralement de revenir sur des acteurs politiques, collectifs ou individuels, marginalisés dans les années qui ont suivi l’indépendance par les hommes qui ont incarné le nouveau pouvoir.

From A Sudan to Another

Political and Social Restructuring Underway

The separation of the two Sudans in July 2011 created as many opportunities as it aroused difficulties and threats, therefore opening new research fields in Social Sciences. The themes of analysis regarding political and social reshuffling are many, and for a majority of them, yet to study. The CEDEJ-Khartoum and the CFEE-Addis Ababa are willing to give an academic content to the debate, which official talks often miss to address; and to convey discussions between Sudanese and South Sudanese scholars, as well as international specialists of the region.

Second World Urbanity: Between Capitalist and Communist Utopias

Second World Urbanity: Between Capitalist and Communist Utopias seeks to investigate the history of the radical reshaping of the Soviet World (in our words - the Second World), that Ada Louise Huxtable reported on in the late 1960s. This project aims to bring together scholarly contributions on the various endeavors in the Second World to conceive, build, and inhabit a socialist cityscape that was an alternative to the segregated spaces of capitalist cities and the atomized world of suburbia. Imagining and designing urban space were undeniably powerful instruments of forging socialist modernity. Second World Urbanity pays close attention to the tensions between global challenges and locally driven agendas that made architects, planners, and ordinary dwellers alter socialist modernity according to more particular interests.

Administrative and Legal Documentation in Pre-colonial Africa and Beyond

Fifth European Conference on African Studies (ECAS 5)

Historiens, anthropologues et spécialistes de diverses disciplines sont invités à réfléchir ensemble sur les questions de production, transmission et preservation des documents administratifs et légaux de l’Afrique pré-coloniale. L’objectif de ce panel est d’initier un dialogue entre spécialistes travaillant sur les sources non narratives, que ce soit des actes de donation, des contrats, des chartes, des inscriptions funéraires ou tout autre document devenu « document d’archive ». Les présentations comportant un fort volet analytique et méthodologique seront préférées à des études de cas descriptives, afin de faciliter l’approche comparative.

American Art in Dialogue with Africa and the African Diaspora

Since the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade, Africa has played an important — albeit shifting, contested, and often unseen — role in the history of art of the United States. Conference organizers seek original, innovative scholarship investigating heretofore unexamined aspects of this transatlantic dialogue, from the visual culture of slavery and abolitionism to American modernism; from the Black Arts Movement to the contemporary art world.

Globalisation and Minor Cultural Groups

The role of so-called minority people in rethinking the future of modern societies

Minority groups, whose way of life has historically suffered from globalization, are often cited as victims of global processes, but they are rarely studied for the techniques or technologies of accommodation and resistance they have implemented as a response to global processes— the most devastating of these processes being colonization in its various aspects. Indeed, globalist literature does not yet offer a conceptualization or theorizing of the social, cultural, political and territorial continuity of “minorized” cultures, let alone does it afford enough analytical space to these so-called cultural minorities in the process of questioning the values and practices of globalization. Therefore, this conference will participate in building more connections between different experiences in order to think up the best alternatives to the global economic and political system in place and to the way of life brought about by global phenomena which do not work anymore.

Beyond French New Languages for African Diasporic Literature

In recent years, Africans from former French colonies in both the Maghreb and Sub-Saharan regions have been settling in countries other than France and writing in languages other than French. This break with the colonial and postcolonial habits of la Françafrique – the familiar bind of metropole and colony – has been going on for years and is now ripe for analysis. Writing in German, Italian, Dutch, Catalan, Spanish, English, and other languages, these authors suggest new patterns of diasporic belonging and raise new questions about the postcolonial world. Issues of immigration, language choice, cosmopolitanism, global citizenship, and world literature will be addressed.
