5th international congress “Sport, doping and society”
The 5th international congress “Sport, doping and society” is organized by the Spanish Agency for Health Protection in Sport (AEPSAD) and the Technical University of Madrid (UPM). Under the theme “Think Clean”, there will be presented the results of scientific researches and new methodologies in the field of doping in sport from the specific perspective of Human and Social Sciences. We believe that this initiative will contribute to identify the factors that influence the use of doping substances and methods. From this knowledge we hope to foster future prevention and doping control and to promote ethical behavior in sport.

The Transatlantic Embrace: Spanish Civil War in America’s Intimate Distance
Spanish Civil War has been studied under its multiple angles. This can also be said about the literature concerning this topic: novels, poems, and all literary forms generated by this armed conflict (both by Spanish and foreign intellectuals) have been commented by academic criticism from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. However, fewer approaches have set the axis of their critical focus on the importance of the Spanish conflict in America and its decisive relevance as a part of a phenomenon that is also American. This special number of the FORMA journal sets out to give a voice to all types of contributions able to shed a new light on this fundamental aspect of the war, whose causes and consequences are clearly rooted in Spain, but whose horizon overflows the peninsular and continental borders and requires an inevitably transatlantic point of view.

Depuis plus d’un siècle, l’émancipation des femmes, l’essor des mouvements décoloniaux et l’émergence dans les productions culturelles de points de vue portés par des groupes dits minoritaires ont contribué à mettre en place des discours alternatifs. Des réappropriations, des réinterprétations et des subversions ont eu lieu qui, sur un moyen terme, ont participé à infléchir les représentations de genre. De ce fait, les sociétés occidentales contemporaines semblent évoluer vers un changement de paradigme où, si les femmes ont conquis les droits citoyens et exercent par ailleurs dans des secteurs d’activité variés, elles restent soumises à des exclusions non visibles, telles que le « plafond de verre » et une plus grande précarité dans le monde de l’emploi, ou des violences qui leur sont spécifiques (féminicides, harcèlement sexuel, publisexisme, etc.).

Les XXe et XXIe siècles ont montré l’importance croissante qu’ont les médias dans les sociétés latino-américaines. Les particularités historiques, culturelles et économiques du continent amènent-elles les médias de masse à fonctionner différemment du reste du monde ? L’objectif de ce colloque est de réunir des chercheurs provenant de diverses disciplines autour des médias en Amérique latine et sur l’Amérique latine. En d’autres termes, il s’agira non seulement d’analyser les médias en Amérique latine (propriété, discours, réception), mais aussi d’observer comment les médias du monde regardent l’Amérique latine et ses médias.
