    Recent ethical challenges in social network analysis (RECSNA17)

    The interdisciplinary workshop RECSNA17 (Paris, 5-6 December 2017) brings together academics from several fields of knowledge to further advance the ethical reflection in the face of new research challenges. Research on social networks raises formidable ethical issues that often fall outside existing regulations. New tools to collect, treat, store personal data expose both research participants and practitioners to specific risks. Issues surrounding political instrumentalization or economic takeover of scientific results transcend standard research concerns. Legal and social ramifications of studies on personal ties and human networks surface at an unprecedented pace.

    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.

    Music, Cultural Heritage And Law

    Special Issue

    Music is a space of possibilities, a realm of cross-cultural events where interpretation is deeply rooted in history and societal evolution. The main complexity is to analyze the coded meaning and view how the same signs, notions and concepts are appropriated, translated, rehistorized and read anew in songs, be they pop songs or national anthems.

    Ways to Legally Implement Intergenerational Justice

    Nos démocraties sont confrontées à une nouvelle problématique: il s'agit de la nécessité de prendre en compte les intérêts des générations futures. Telles qu'elles se pensent et s'exercent à l'heure actuelle, nulle place n'est réservée à la protection des hommes de demain au niveau du processus démocratique. Dans ce contexte, les impératifs de justice intergénérationnels ne peuvent être mis en œuvre. Chaque partie politique se focalise bien souvent sur les préférences très actuelles de l'électorat. Nous souhaitons trouver des moyens pour réconcilier la démocratie avec les impératifs de justice intergénérationnels. À cette fin, il est nécessaire d'instituer les intérêts des générations futures au sein du processus démocratique. Le récent échec du Sommet de Copenhage confirme l'urgence de penser à situer les générations futures au sein de ce processus. Comment faire ?

    Undoing law, framing contexts

    Normativity across the disciplines

    This conference represents the final stage of the “European Doctorate in history, sociology, anthropology and philosophy of legal cultures in Europe”, a multilingual PhD programme financed by the European Commission and conceived to deepen the links between law and social sciences. The topic of the meeting, “Undoing law, framing contexts. Normativity across the disciplines”, aims to encourage a reflection on the concepts of law and context, bringing together scholars with different academic backgrounds but with a common interest in law.Many feel that a line has to be drawn between what is law and what it is not, between the text of law and its con-text. It is precisely this activity of distinguishing between the legal and the non-legal that we would like to examine more closely.

    ANCo - Analyses normatives contemporaines

    Ce séminaire rassemble des contributions à la recherche en éthique sociale venues de plusieurs champs et disciplines, principalement la philosophie, l’économie, la sociologie, les sciences politiques et le droit. L’éthique sociale est comprise comme la dimension normative de l’organisation sociale. Les contributions concernent des questions appliquées (évaluation des politiques publiques, évolution des inégalités, relations sociales) ainsi que des questions plus théoriques posées par la nature et les fondements de l’évaluation sociale (les outils de la philosophie morale et politique et de l’économie normative étant ici spécialement pertinents).

    Huitième table ronde internationale de sémiotique juridique

    Eighth Roundtables for the Semiotics of Law - IRSL 2009

    La rencontre de 2009 entend se concentrer sur les progrès réalisés dans les divers domaines – méthodologiques, épistémologiques et conceptuels – de recherche en sémiotique juridique. La table ronde souhaite, notamment, explorer les conséquences des thèmes suivants : « Transparence, contrôle et pouvoir » sous une perspective sémiotique ainsi que les approches émergeantes et prometteuses qui peuvent être utilisées dans la recherche et l'interprétation du droit et des phénomènes juridiques. Le but principal de cette rencontre est d'examiner les défis épistémologiques et méthodologiques auxquels « transparence, contrôle et pouvoir » fait face aujourd'hui et d'en considérer les effets. Nous espérons que les communications refléteront la nature interdisciplinaire des recherches en sémiotique juridique ainsi que les défis auxquels les chercheurs font face dans ce domaine.
