  Crossing borders

  The challenges and experiences of Brazilian and French researchers

  L’objectif principal de cette table ronde est de créer un espace de discussion et d’échange d’expériences entre brésilien.ne.s qui font des recherches en France et français.e.s qui font des recherches dans l’Amérique Latine, en ouvrant un débat interdisciplinaire qui s’interroge notamment sur la question des frontières. Des frontières géographiques, parce qu’il s'agit de pays et continents différents ; des frontières académiques, en proposant une réflexion sur les obstacles (in)visibles entre les sciences humaines, sociales et exactes (et ainsi entre les différentes disciplines au sein de chaque domaine) et des frontières humaines, en espérant que les expériences interpersonnelles partagées entre les chercheur.e.s les enrichiront individuellement et collectivement.

  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.
