  Home as a place for anti-Jewish persecution in European cities, 1933-1945

  Anti-Jewish persecution didn’t only happen in specifically designed or transformed spaces such as camps and ghettos. It invaded spaces of everyday life in European cities: public spaces, work places and private spaces such as homes. In this landscape not only Jews and agents of persecution appear but also their immediate residential environment: concierges, neighbors, nannies, landlords, property managers, sub-tenants, local administrations, etc. These figures have an essential place in the memories of Jewish survivors. Though, so far, scholars have hardly addressed their role. The spatial turn that occurred during the last fifteen years in Anglophone Holocaust studies focused on the symbolic places of genocide. It mostly neglected apartment blocks and ordinary cities as spaces of persecution. This conference thus intends to focus on urban housing as a place for anti-Jewish persecution.

  Another Music in a Different Room

  Resultando de todo um conjunto de trabalhos desenvolvidos na última década no quadro das Ciências Sociais (nomeadamente da Sociologia da Cultura, Sociologia da Arte, Sociologia da Juventude, Sociologia Urbana e Sociologia da Música), no Another music in a different room teremos oportunidade de aprofundar o entendimento em torno da importância, funcionamento, processos, atores, características, géneros e subgéneros das cenas musicais urbanas. O Another music in a different room será, assim, um espaço propício para a troca de ideias, para a discussão, e, por isso, um espaço onde com certeza se assistirá a desenvolvimentos no conhecimento científico. Nesse contexto, é nossa intenção partilhar toda esta dinâmica científica com o mundo através da publicação de um e-Book colaborativo, com o intuito de contribuir para um debate mais alargado em torno da música, juventude, cultura, cenas culturais, cenas musicais.

  Architectures for Emergencies

  We wish to deepen discussions and researches around the topic of architecture in emergencies situations, on which we started working with Boundaries' issue n. 2. Even if they are considered as special events – something rarely happening – emergencies are, in many cases, an everyday reality around the globe : from natural to man-made disasters, architecture must face a broad variety of emergency circumstances. Can we speak about “architecture” at a given historical moment or in certain geographic areas?

  Puissance, résistances et tensions. Histoire des mobilités électriques, XIXe-XXIe siècle

  L'électricité est aujourd'hui employée pour de nombreuses formes de mobilité et nombreux sont les projets allant dans le sens d'un usage plus massif de cette énergie pour se déplacer. L'appel à communications de ce colloque se propose d'envisager sur le temps long cette relation entre électricité et mobilité, en interrogeant les pratiques et imaginaires d'une énergie qui, si elle a trouvé des applications concrètes dans le domaine des transports, s'est également bien souvent confrontée à des désillusions. Colloque organisé par l'Université Paris I (laboratoire IRICE UMR 8138) et l'Université Paris Diderot (laboratoire ICT EA 337) avec le soutien de l'ISCC-CNRS.
