Allevamento transumante e agricoltura
La transhumance en Italie centrale de la Protohistoire à nos jours
Il seminario, organizzato all'interno del progetto "La transhumance en Italie centrale de la Protohistoire à nos jours", vuole riflettere sul rapporto tra pastorizia e agricoltura, tra forme di conflitto, strumenti di regolazione e ipotesi di integrazione. L'arco temporale cui si riferiscono le relazioni previste - tra ricerche di prima mano e riflessione storiografica - va dall'Età romana al Novecento e allarga l'area indagata al Mezzogiorno, peraltrofortemente connesso all'Italia centrale dalla pratica della transumanza ovina.Una relazione sull'area alpina e un'altra sulla Penisola iberica offriranno, infine, utili elementi diconfronto.

The adoption of the European Landscape Convention (ELC) in 2000 represents a major event in taking landscape into account at the European level. As of June 2013, 38 Council of Europe member states have ratified the Convention. By specifying that landscape is an essential component of the quality of life of Europeans, the Convention is, first and foremost, in line with a territorial dimension. Moreover, a strong foundation of the ELC lies in its specific definition of landscape, notably based on the notion of perception by populations. One of the scientists’ major concerns is therefore how to reconcile objective scientific approaches with the subjective aspect of citizens’ perception. After more than a decade of practice, the Conference will be an opportunity for scientists who have been working in line with the ELC to present the tools developed and to reflect on their tangible, measurable and observable effects.

The office as an interior (1880-1960)
Au cours de la « deuxième révolution industrielle » augmente considérablement l’activité dans le tertiaire et se développent les services administratifs dans le secteur industriel et public. L’employé devient ainsi la figure sociale de la modernité urbaine, qui témoigne aussi du rôle croissant de la femme dans ce secteur professionnel. Le colloque The office as an interior (1880-1960) aborde l’essor du travail administratif entre 1880 et 1960 à travers l’analyse de l’émergence d´un espace nouveau, le bureau, qui par ses arrangements contribue à la diffusion de nouvelles formes de sociabilité et réalise des nouveaux modes d’organisation du travail.

From silicosis to silica hazards: an experiment in medicine, history and the social sciences
What are the biases inherited from the constitution of medical knowledge? How does returning to the root of “scientific truth” open new avenues to contemporary research? The present colloquium is an unprecedented interdisciplinary experiment whereby medical experts, epidemiologists and historians will question the very foundations of current medical knowledge of silica hazards, in order to discuss the unknown origin of a range of systemic diseases.

Environmental approaches of interactions between cities and forest supplies during the Middles Ages and the Early modern period. 12th International Conference on urban History, European Association for Urban History – Main Session M16
As places of consumption and production European medieval and early modern cities exerted a enormous pressure on neighbouring woodlands. Some historical studies have already discussed the way cities tried to impone their control on these lands emphasizing the diversity of needs which were fulfilled by forest exploitation (wood, timber, charcoal, grazing…). They often concluded that urban pressure resulted in an inexorable degradation of the forest cover. Indeed local woodlands and forests products could probably never meet the demand. In order to face shortage or, better, to prevent it, urban authorities attempted on one hand to extend their control on more and more distant forests and to attract interregional or « international » trade flows. On the other hand, they tried to regulate the local market so as to ensure access to several important needs regarding urban economy (charcoal, timber).

Global change adaptation: Impact of governance schemes on biodiversity and landscapes
The aim of this conference is to contribute to the general ideas evolution on governance enabling to adapt to global change through biodiversity and cultural landscapes preservation. Many countries have established various institutions to facilitate their sustainable development, such as expert groups, advisory consultants, assessment procedures, evaluation clauses, incentive and regulation policies. Until very recently, policies aimed at mitigating biodiversity erosion, and maintain landscape quality. But more and more people wonder how to design policies going forward simple conservation logics towards more active policies where biodiversity elements contribute to sustainable development. Policies aiming at progressively developing biodiversity (and not only mitigating its erosion), at integrating landscapes to a global management of local development, do need design patterns that integrate human activities and involve the different actors.

Multilocal residentiality, cities and regional planning
La multilocalité résidentielle, autrement dit habiter de façon officielle ou informelle en plusieurs endroits, est une forme de vie qui gagne en importance ces derniers temps et capte de plus en plus l’attention des médias. Ces pratiques d’habitation intermittente sur différents lieux ont des conséquences très importantes pour nos sociétés, certes pour la cohésion familiale (thème de notre précédente journée à Fribourg/Bsg) mais aussi pour la cohésion locale (participation locale) et pour l’usage des infrastructures et des services sur les différents lieux d’habitation, mais aussi par ce qu’elles créent des besoins et demandes spécifiques sur les infrastructures de transports, les offres de logements et les services (gardiennage, magasin, heure d'ouverture de l'administration, etc.). Est-ce que ces pratiques s’arrangent avec les infrastructures existantes qui ont été pensées pour la monorésidentialité ?

40 years of democracy (ies): progresses, contradictions and prospects
VIII Portuguese Sociological Congress
Portuguese singularity presents today new communication bridges in comparison to other territorial realities, offering itself as a rare laboratory of sociological analysis. Regression phenomenon’s (both structural and dispositional) of articulation of social change’s asynchronous rhythms, of risk proliferation and uncertainty, conflictive conciliation of multiple modernities, within an unfinished one, challenge us to look sociologically at these last 40 years and also to think prospectively on tendencies and future challenges.

Conference, symposium - History
The digital edition of the Becerro Galicano of San Millán de la Cogolla
Le cartulaire dit Becerro Galicano du monastère de San Millán de la Cogolla est une source fondamentale pour l’histoire sociale, linguistique, politique et culturelle de l’Espagne chrétienne des IXe-XIIe siècles. À l’occasion de la mise en ligne de l’édition électronique du Becerro Galicano, une rencontre internationale d’historiens et de philologues aura lieu à San Millán. La discussion aura pour objet les changements subis par certains aspects essentiels de la production du savoir historique. Le colloque prêtera bien entendu une attention particulière au renouveau des études sur les cartulaires, mais il veut aussi proposer un ensemble de réflexions plus générales sur les sources et sur leur emploi dans la construction de l’histoire et de la philologie. L’organisation du colloque propose des bourses de séjour aux étudiants et aux jeunes chercheurs.

On the dynamics of production (Distraction/Interference – Resistance/Accident)
In ordinary terms, the word production refers to an act of creation and its result, or to a process at the end of which there is a materialisation of some kind, or to the act of making something present. By productively interfering with this common idea of productionwe would like to work towards establishing different ways of thinking about this concept.
Distraction and Interference as well as Resistance and Accident are exemplary categories of the unexpected moments that may or may not take place in the course of production. They remind us that production cannot be reduced to the momentum of "achieving a product". Rather, these categories help to reveal the physical presence of those who produce, the materiality of the objects involved and the unforeseen effects of the "product". Furthermore, they allow us to question the alleged linearity of the processes that form part of production. Thereby, Distraction, Interference, Resistance and Accident make us aware to what extent production involves a "lived" and "living" tension between the producer and what is being produced, between the subject and the world.

4rth International Congress on the Square of Opposition
The Square : a Central Object for Thought
The square of opposition is a very famous theme coming from Aristotelian logic dealing with the notions of opposition, negation, quantification and proposition. It has been continuously studied by people interested in logic, philosophy and Aristotle during two thousand years. Even Frege, one of the main founders of modern mathematical logic, used it. This congress is an interdisciplinary event gathering logicians, philosophers, mathematicians, semioticians, artists, cognitivists, and computer scientists.
