Call for papers - Urban studies
The imagination, construction and habitation of Earth
ICHT 2017
Face au développement de nouvelles formes de fonctionalisme (smart cities…), le parti-pris de ce colloque pluri-disciplinaire est de réaffirmer la place des poétiques urbaines dans la fabrique contemporaine des villes. Centré sur les imaginaires, les images matérielles et les approches sensibles du quotidien urbain, il se déclinera à partir de trois objets thématiques : imageries urbaines ; ville douce et bien-être en ville ; habitat et habiter précaires. Les contributions sont ouvertes aux travaux de recherche, expériences ou projets menés par des chercheurs en sciences humaines et sociales, concepteurs d'espaces ou artistes.

The study and design of landscape as a methodological problem
First Iberian Colloquium on Landscape
Landscapes present themselves as sceneries we have inherited, where we live, and from where we draw the resources needed to subsist as a civilisation and as a species. The result of our actions on this heritage will be the legacy to our descendants. In the beginning of the third millennium, the interest in the topic of landscape is increasingly important, transforming this discipline in a research platform where several fields of knowledge intersect. The aim of this colloquium is to reflect about the diversity of multidisciplinary aspects, analytical methods, and intervention techniques related to the study of landscape, establishing a forum focused on the future relationship between humanity and landscape.

III International Congress Karl Marx
The October Revolution of 1917 was one of the most significant events of the modern era. Its historical meaning can be understood, on the one hand, within the narrative of previous revolutions – starting with the 1789 French Revolution – and of the rise of the labour movement in the nineteenth-century. On the other hand, 1917 also paved the way to several other twentieth-century events and phenomena, such as the Chinese Revolution or the post-colonial turn. On its hundredth anniversary, the Institute for Contemporary History organizes an international conference dedicated to the study and discussion of the October Revolution and its consequences.

The concepts of identity and memory have achieved great relevance in the current historiographical debate. The contemporary societies are in constant self-reflection, debating the process of its own constitution based upon the identification of its elements of unity or of differentiation. History has played an important role in this process, between the recognition of their complexity and the will to establish individual and identifiable groups.

Cidades globais para a formação de um império: comerciantes e urbanismo
Revista História, vol. 21. n. 3 (set./dez. 2016)
O objetivo deste dossiê é refletir sobre o papel dos espaços urbanos na construção das diferentes teias imperiais, ao longo dos séculos XVI a XVIII. Adotando uma óptica transnacional e interdisciplinar se pretende superar as limitações da historiografia mais tradicional para abordar as interações entre cidades, comerciantes e portos durante a Idade Moderna, através de estudos de caso. O debate sobre a interação entre os impérios, as cidades, os comerciantes e o urbanismo, poderá constituir um importante observatório a partir do qual calibrar melhor os efeitos de uma primeira globalização que ocorreu durante a Idade Moderna.

Lost and Transformed Cities: a digital perspective
The city is by definition a living entity. It translates itself into a collectiveness of individuals who share and act on a material, social and cultural setting. Its history is one of dreams, achievements and loss. As such, it also bears a history of identity. To know the history of cities is to understand our own place in the contemporaneity. The past is always seen through the eyes of the present and can only be understood as such. On the occasion of the 261st anniversary of the 1755 earthquake in Lisbon, we invite scholars and experts in the fields of heritage studies, digital humanities, history, history of art and information technology to share and debate their experience and knowledge on digital heritage.

The role of small towns in building Medieval Europe
It is our aim to promote an approach to urban studies which, repeatedly but discontinuously, appears on the horizon of historical, geographical, sociological and anthropological research, always with a certain stigma as an inferior and unattractive subject of analysis. Inferior, because each time it has been considered on a comparative scale, it comes up against the variability of definitions of its designating attribute. It is unattractive inasmuch as it is not satisfied by scientific approaches rooted in the intention to capture decisive and major development processes. By combining several scientific areas, this conference aims to give a voice to the small towns of a Medieval Europe, increasingly perceived as "moving".

Conference, symposium - History
African Socialism | Socialism in Africa
It is high time to give Africa its rightful place in the global historiography of socialism and to socialism its right in the History of Africa. Historians of socialism systematically forget Africa. Yet many African states professed “African” or scientific socialism, many African political actors used the theoretical toolbox drawn from the Marxist tradition. It offered support for the political advancement of colonial populations and the building of post-colonial States. The USSR, China, Cuba, offered ready-to-use models. Some states even tried to invent the ir own forms of African socialism, adapted to the specific conditions of Africa and true to its theoretical roots.

Personal protective equipment: protecting but not always
Laboreal journal
Le recours aux équipements de protection individuelle (EPI) doit ainsi être la solution de la dernière chance et il ne suffit pas de les porter pour être protégé. Encore faut-il qu’ils soient adaptés au risque à couvrir et à la nature de l’activité, qu’ils soient correctement portés, stockés, entretenus et remplacés à temps. Dans le cadre de ce dossier, la revue Laboreal valorisera la multidisciplinarité – à savoir des contributions qui se situent dans le champ de l’ergonomie ou de la psychologie du travail, mais également de la sociologie du travail, des sciences de l’ingénieur et de toute approche qui privilégie les questions de la santé au travail.

Origin(s) and latest developments
The question of repentance now applies to the public sphere and concerns huge collective bodies as well as individuals. It has a complex relationship with history. Repentance has even become a global issue and now concerns a wide range of geographical and cultural areas as well taking on many forms referring to facts whose scale, temporal distance or context are in no way comparable with it. Indeed, the roots of repentance are to be found in many traditions (religious, cultural, national and community) and nowadays, announcements (through the media at large) give rise to secular forms of repentance which are devoid of the dimensions that traditionally form the definition of repentance.
