The challenging of ideological, institutional and (geo)political heritage
This conference aims at rethinking the legacy of 1989 in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) through the prism of its ongoing contestations, with a focus on the current trends and deliberate political efforts that challenge the major achievements of Velvet Revolutions as well as the outcomes of the collapse of the Iron Curtain. 1989 launched a process that continues to this day. Three decades of transformations, crises and setbacks have noticeably changed the shape of Central and Eastern European societies.

Transnational dimensions of dealing with the past in ‘Third Wave’ democracies
Southern Europe, Central Eastern Europe, and the Former Soviet Union in Global Perspective
This conference aims to fill the gap by looking at how post-dictatorial justice and memory experiences in Southern Europe, Central Eastern Europe, and the former Soviet Union after the “third wave of democratization” have reciprocally affected each other. It also seeks to unpack how memorialization practices in these regions were shaped by and influenced in turn criminalization discourses in other geographical contexts (Latin America, Asia, Africa). The conference focuses on transnational activism, transfers of knowledge, and expertise at bilateral, regional or international levels, the impact of legal and mnemonic narratives outside their countries of origin, and the role of international organizations and NGO's in dealing with mass violence. The conference aims thus to trace the mutlidirectional circulation of ideas, norms and models of reckoning with authoritarian regimes both within these regions, and between them and other areas of the world.

France and the European Union – Part-time teaching post at New York University (NYU) Paris
The course France & the European Union investigates the political economy of European integration from the end of the Second World War to present day with a particular focus on the role played by France in this development. It considers the incentives that have led an ever-larger group of European nations to form multilateral agreements around a growing range of policies that now incorporate such diverse spheres as defense, economics, and human rights. It then turns to the challenges Europe faces in maintaining the European Union (EU) in the face of growing skepticism among national electorates as well as attempts to undermine the EU (by Russia) or withdraw support from it (by the U.K. and the U.S.).

Convocatoria de ponencias - Sociología
This is a one-day workshop on the plurality of reconciliation practices in post-conflitc societies. What various meanings are assigned to the word ‘reconciliation’ in the different communities where such initiatives have been implemented? How may conflicting interests or views be reconciled? The organisers also wish to study the influence of historical factors, and assess how the accounts of those seeking reconciliation have evolved over time. An analysis of past initiatives will also be relevant. Finally, a distinction between nationally and locally devised initiatives may be made to better assess the policies implemented, their sustainability, and their impact on the local communities. This is a cross-disciplinary workshop and submissions by researchers in Humanities or Political and Social Sciences will be welcome.

Corporate authority in the shaping of public policy
The power of corporate business has been a subject of intense debate and many social science studies since the 19th century. This conference is based on the idea that, not only has this power varied among industries, countries and different periods, but also that the way in which it is wielded has evolved over time. By bringing together scholars from various backgrounds within the fields of history, sociology, and political science, we intend to provide new insights on the multiplicity, depth and limits of the forms of influence that corporations, or the organizations furthering their interests – business associations, think tanks, communication or public relations agencies, foundations, etc. –, have on public policy.

Revolution and Contemporary Forms of Critique
Toward « Revolution 13/13 »
This colloquium will constitute a prolegomenon to the seminar series “Revolution 13/13” that will run at the Columbia Center for Contemporary Critical Thought (and to the reading group that will be organized at the Columbia Global Centers in Paris) during the academic year 2017-2018. The goal will be to begin to engage a multidisciplinary and polyphonic conversation at the intersection of philosophy, of political science and law, of legal history and the social sciences and humanities, on the concept and on the practices of revolution and social change, or more broadly on the different forms that critique and political resistance can take and have taken in the contemporary world.

Global Internet Governance as a Diplomacy Issue
The First European Multidisciplinary Conference on Global Internet Governance – Actors, Regulations, Transactions and Strategies (GIG-ARTS 2017)
“Digital diplomacy” has recently been the subject of significant debates, events and activities at a variety of governance sites. The concept is often used without having been clearly defined and delimited. For some, it is restricted to the use of digital means, especially social networks, by diplomats to practice a kind of “Public Diplomacy 2.0”. In others’ views, it extends to foreign affairs and international relations with regard to all matters related to the digital environment, including internet governance. There is undoubtedly a need to better understand recent transformations of diplomacy in the digital era, their drivers and their nature, whether and how they might change European and transnational power relations and, ultimately, which values they carry and channel on the global scene.

Gender, Women and the Conservative Party, 1880s to the Present
This two-day international conference explores the relationship between women and conservatism since the late 19th century. In the media frenzy and the re-enactment of the visceral political divisions of the 1980s that greeted the death of Margaret Thatcher in April, 2013, it soon became clear that Britain’s first woman Prime Minister was being portrayed as an aberrant figure who had emerged from a party of men. It appeared that the media and the public had not been well enough served by academics in making sense of and contextualizing the Thatcher phenomenon and, more broadly, the paradoxical sexual politics of the Right.

Presque dix ans déjà : le nouveau Canada de Stephen Harper
Revue Études Canadiennes n°78 (juin 2015)
This special issue of Etudes Canadiennes/Canadian Studies intends to explore what’s new in Canada, nine years after the coming to power of the Conservatives, four years after Stephen Harper won the election that gave him a majority government, and at a time when Canada is getting ready for the next federal election. While the contributions are expected to focus on the Conservative initiatives to shape this new Canada, they will also be encouraged to compare them with other societal and global factors that may contribute to a changing Canada.

Changing the Tune : musiques populaires et politique au XXIe siècle
De la chute du communisme au Printemps arabe
Le champ d’étude dédié aux musiques populaires a abondamment exploré la question politique. S’y est développée une tradition, féconde, d’analyse des rapports entre musique et pouvoir, des pratiques symboliques par lesquelles passe l’affirmation identitaire des subcultures (cultural, gender, postcolonial studies), ainsi que de la politisation des musiques populaires, depuis les mouvements syndicaux du XIXe siècle jusqu’aux héritiers de la contre-culture des années 1960. En revanche, rares sont les auteurs à s’être penchés sur les effets du nouveau contexte géopolitique et technologique de la fin du XXe et du début du XXIe siècles. Les transformations géopolitiques, culturelles et technologiques suivant la chute du bloc soviétique, l’accélération de la mondialisation, l’avènement de l’ère numérique et d’internet ou, plus récemment encore, les bouleversements politiques tels que le Printemps arabe et les différentes déclinaisons du mouvement « Occupy », par exemple, sont encore trop timidement étudiés par les chercheurs. Depuis plus de vingt ans désormais, les musiques populaires ont recomposé les formes de leur engagement en puisant dans la diversité du matériau qu’offrent un long héritage tout autant que ce nouvel environnement. C’est sur ces nouveaux usages, pratiques et significations politiques que nous souhaitons réfléchir à l’occasion de cette conférence internationale.

International Peacekeeping in Africa: Actors and Missions
The Center for Security Studies (CSS) at ETH Zurich in Switzerland will hold a conference the 23-24 November 2012 on International Peacekeeping in Africa, with a particular focus on current actors and missions. Over the last decades, the African continent has witnessed a proliferation of peacekeeping missions. Simultaneously, an increasing number of actors have become involved in the effort to bring peace to Africa, and this in turn has led to new and diverse types of operations. This conference seeks to analyze these developments in their entirety and comparatively in order to identify the most significant challenges and trends in international peacekeeping in Africa. -

L’administration Obama, 2009-2011. Ruptures, continuités et devenir
Ce colloque réunit des chercheurs américains et européens pour réfléchir aux dispositifs électoraux, institutionnels, sociaux et politiques de l’Amérique contemporaine. Il s’agit moins, au lendemain des élections législatives du 2 novembre 2010, de procéder à un bilan à mi-mandat que de réfléchir aux dynamiques structurelles qui ont facilité l’élection de Barack Obama en 2008 mais entravent aujourd'hui son action. -

La Serbie post-Milosevic : continuités/discontinuités
Plus de sept ans après l'effondrement du régime de Slobodan Milošević en Serbie, une évaluation de la transition démocratique et des changements en cours dans les sphères économique et sociale apparaît utile alors que le pays piétine dans son processus d'adhésion à l'UE et est confronté à la définition du statut du Kosovo. -

La migration des mineurs non accompagnés en Europe
Unaccompanied Minors in Europe
Ce colloque prétend pouvoir générer un espace d’échanges et de discussions sur cette question qui demeure peu traitée. Ses principaux objectifs sont : d’une part, installer un dialogue entre les chercheurs et les professionnels afin de proposer un traitement social et juridique cohérent et respectant la prééminence des droits de protection de l’enfance devant les règles de contrôle des flux migratoires ; d’autre part, fédérer l’effort de recherche sur cette nouvelle question afin de mieux appréhender les dynamiques migratoires aujourd’hui à l’oeuvre et ainsi développer une réflexion méthodologique visant à accroître la connaissance des contextes sociaux d’origine de ces mineurs et saisir la pluralité des dimensions de ce depart d’un nombre croissant d'enfants quittant seuls leur pays.
