  Study day in honor of Bernardo Secchi

  First edition – Utopia and the project for the city and territory

  For today and in the future Bernardo Secchi’s work and intuitions nourish the reflections and debate on city, architecture and society. The Study Day sponsored by the Doctorate School in Architecture, City and Design and of the Università IUAV of Venice is dedicated to Bernardo Secchi, in the school where he taught for many years becoming a reference for many student generations. The aim is not only to remember his work, but also to deepen and to elaborate, case by case, his hypothesis, themes and questions by constructing new occasions for debate and intellectual expansion.

  Images and representations of the Self and Other

  Confronting scholarly and popular cultures to contribute to the stabilisation of Congo

  Le colloque propose une confrontation interdisciplinaire sur les représentations du Soi et de l’Autre, réservant une attention particulière à la confrontation des cultures savantes et populaires en République démocratique du Congo. Inspiré par l’expérience du projet « Mémoire de Lubumbashi », ce colloque international vise à renouveler le débat autour du rapport entre culture savante et culture populaire par des contributions à caractère historique et/ou ethnographique sur le passé colonial et postcolonial, et sur les recompositions sociales contemporaines (appartenances régionale / ethnique, rapports entre générations, mutations/redéfinition des rapports de genre).

  Summer School - Sociology

  From risk to resilience, from past to present: critical perspectives and comparative approaches

  2016 Summer School of the Cluster of Excellence Territorial and Spatial Dynamics (LabEx DynamiTe)

  This Summer School will give precedence to exploratory work that does not take the concept of resilience for granted but rather examines the social and historical conditions of its use by the scientific community. Thus, a constant dialogue between past and present case studies shall be offered, involving geographers, sociologists, historians and archeologists. By comparing sites distant in both time and space, common mechanisms that lead to system resilience or on the contrary to major qualitative system reorganizations can be identified.
