Contested Hybrid Democracy: Endorsing or Revisiting the Liberal Model in non-Western Countries
IPSA Istanbul 2016
Democracy has become a worldwide reference in terms of political organization and governance. While the universal character claimed by such a model has largely been theorized from a Western point of view, the variety of uses and appropriations from non-Western countries, including emerging States, remains unexamined. Disappointed with the results brought by the transition paradigm, the hybrid regimes literature tends to assess the unequal reception of the democratic model in non-Western countries. Nevertheless, the hybrid regimes analytical frame does not exhaust the question of the inner workings of these regimes, since its scientific referential remains based on Western theories and focuses on the uncompleted democratization processes and dynamics. This panel aims at switching the analytical frame towards the reception of the democratic model in non-Western countries through an assessment of uses and reappropriations of this model by political and social actors. Non-Western countries represent an interesting reflection ground for testing appropriation-reject dialectics regarding the Western democratic model. While this model directly inspires some of these countries (India, South Africa or Turkey), it has been rejected by other countries (China and Russia). Are there emerging models of democracy or counter-democracy models in non-Western countries ? We shall address these questions related to the unequal reception of the democratic model in non-Western countries.

Climatic change, air quality and energy challenges: the role policy in urban transport and preventative measures in developing countries and emerging economies
Transport is an integral component of sustaining livelihoods: without efficient urban transport mankind would not survive and develop and nor would economies. Yet, despite the immense benefits that transport enables, such as access to jobs, markets, education, and consumer goods and services via global supply chains, the transport sector generates substantial disbenefits. These include dependence on non-renewable energy, greenhouse gas emissions, local pollutions, road accidents and inequalities of access. Such disbenefits clearly demonstrate that the transport sector is currently unsustainable economically, environmentally and socially.

Istanbul
Conference, symposium - Urban studies
Oryantalizmin Panzehiri
Le but de ce colloque n’est pas de revisiter l'univers d’Edward Saïd et d’analyser à nouveau la propension à projeter exotisme et clichés sur l’Orient. Les interventions s’interrogeront plutôt sur la façon dont la création contemporaine (artistique, architecturale) dans les pays d’Orient ressuscite, relit, réinterprète, s’approprie, récuse, ou tourne en dérision le regard orientaliste. Les domaines investigués seront l’architecture et l’esthétique urbaine, le roman et les arts contemporains. Les artistes seront invités à exposer leurs productions qui reflètent ce dialogue avec l’orientalisme. -

Constantinople, image of the Byzantine Empire, 330-1453
Cette série de conférences sur la période byzantine s’ouvrira, en octobre 2010, dans le prolongement de l’événement d’Istanbul Capitale européenne de la culture. Après cet intérêt européen pour la ville contemporaine et son développement urbain, ce séminaire propose de s’orienter vers la cité byzantine et ses monuments. Istanbul est en perpétuel mouvement, ce qui permet la mise au jour de nouveaux sites ou la redécouverte d’anciens monuments qui ont été restaurés dans le cadre de l’événement européen. L’objectif de ces conférences est avant tout d’offrir, par l’intermédiaire de différentes disciplines, un nouveau regard sur ce thème de recherche. -

Conference, symposium - Prehistory and Antiquity
Premières rencontres d'archéologie de l'Ifea : archéologies et espaces parcourus
En novembre 2010, l’Institut français d'études anatoliennes inaugurera un événement qui, projeté de longue date, n’avait pu encore aboutir. Ainsi, à compter de 2010, l’Ifea organisera chaque année les Rencontres d’Archéologie à l’Ifea qui visent à réunir l’ensemble des acteurs français en ce domaine et en Turquie ainsi que leurs partenaires turcs et étrangers. Il s’agit non seulement d’offrir une plateforme scientifique de rencontres aux chercheurs, mais aussi d’accroître le dynamisme des activités archéologiques françaises en Turquie en développant le réseau scientifique et institutionnel existant. Ces rencontres auront aussi pour ambition de resserrer les liens entre institutions, personnels scientifiques français et turcs et de développer le vivier des jeunes chercheurs.
