  Modernism, modernisation and the rural landscape

  MODSCAPES_conference2018

  The impact of the Modern Movement and modernisation processes on rural landscapes in Europe and beyond is a widespread but little known, recognised or understood phenomenon which still exerts effects today. Within the third joint research programme of HERA (Humanities in the European Research Area) dedicated to “The uses of the past” which started in 2016, this subject is now being studied through several lenses within the MODSCAPES project. MODSCAPES welcomes proposals (full sessions, papers, trainnig/workshop) to its mid-event event, an international conference dedicated to Modernism, modernisation and the rural landscape.

  Representations of Rurality in Crime Fiction and Media Culture

  Interdisciplinary Approaches to "Setting the Scene"

  The Institute for Collaborative Research in the Humanities at Queen’s University organises a two day Symposium in June 2015  (15 & 16th) as part of its theme of "Creativity in Imagined and Material Worlds". Devoted to representations of the rural,  it will bring together studies in crime fiction and media culture looking at a variety of outlets such as fiction, film, television, comics, games and many others and inspect their various engagements  with the concept of "rurality". Interdisciplinary papers are welcomed, but not contained to, Anthropology, Modern Languages, English, Film and Media Studies, History, Cultural Studies, Historical/Cultural/Rural Geography, Sociology, Spatial Planning. By bringing together an interdisciplinary group we will address how cultural constructions of the rural often ‘set the scene’ for crime fiction.

  Agricultures, durabilité et territoires

  Appel à contributions pour Géocarrefour - Call for Papers for Geocarrefour

  Nous souhaitons poser dans ce numéro la question de la durabilité de l’agriculture en lien avec celle des territoires ruraux. Les contributions sont attendues autour de trois axes principaux : 1) Comment se crée le consensus autour d’une agriculture durable ? 2) La remise en cause des types et des systèmes de production ; 3) La "vivabilité" de l'activité agricole.Envisager la question de la durabilité de l’agriculture en lien avec les territoires renouvelle la capacité de la géographie rurale à articuler espace, activité et dimension temporelle. Elle est un appel à l’ouverture disciplinaire. Des articles sur la France et l’Europe sont les bienvenus, mais aussi sur les Amériques ou d’autres régions du monde, notamment les pays dits « en voie de développement ».
