    History of measuring and calculations in archaeology

    In archaeology, quantitative approaches have a long tradition and belong to the very core of the discipline. However, the history of quantitative archaeological reasoning might be not as straight forward as suggested by the disciplinary history commonlys hared among archaeologists. Taken into account different social interests and traditions we doubt the narrative of linear methodological and technical progress, especially considering to a certain extent alternative developments of quantitative approaches inblocks of countries somewhat separated by language barriers. Different communities assign different roles and functions to quantitative procedures applied in archaeology. This session aims to explore the multitude of factors that determine the development ofquantitative archaeology.

    The Society for Technology and Philosophy’s 2021 Technological Imaginaries Conference

    Technologies are always more than the sum of their mechanical parts. Indeed, technologies are entangled in symbolic forms of a social and cultural nature. Technologies also contribute to the construction of new worldviews and new forms of life. Technological imaginaries are far more than phantasies detached from technological innovation. They are at the heart of innovation itself, of the invention as well as of the implementation and use of technology in our societies.

    Is the concept of sustainability misleading?

    Mixed Perspectives

    Le symposium offrira donc une excellente occasion d'interroger le concept de durabilité au carrefour de nos différentes disciplines et pratiques, afin de mieux comprendre et maîtriser la manière dont il affecte la recherche environnementale lato sensu. L'ambition de ce symposium sera de contribuer à l'émergence d'une « nouvelle discipline scientifique innovante en matière de durabilité » en s'interrogeant sur les abus qui ont pu être faits du concept au cours des quarante dernières années, en réfléchissant aux moyens d'écarter ces abus, en dessinant rigoureusement les contours de la « durabilité environnementale » et en essayant de comprendre comment elle a encore un sens.

    HoST – Journal of History of Science and Technology - thematic dossiers (2022)

    HoST - Journal of History of Science and Technology is an open access, on-line peer-reviewed international journal devoted to the History of Science and Technology, published in English by a group of Portuguese research institutions and De Gruyter/Sciendo. HoST encourages submissions of original historical research exploring the cultural, social and political dimensions of science, technology, and medicine (STM), both from a local and a global perspective. Past thematic issues have dealt with topics as diverse as circulation, science communication or the relation between science and politics. Future issues might deal with both established and emerging areas of scholarship. The editors of HoST are looking for proposals for two thematic dossiers to be published in 2022 (HoST volume 16, issues 1 and 2).

    Name of a discipline

    Where are ‘postcolonial’ theories and practices going, and what can we call them?

    Proposals for papers which reflect upon the disciplinary contours taken up by what is/used to be called ‘postcolonial’ societies, poetics, epistemologies and politics, are therefore particularly welcome, as are proposals which consider the ways in which re-branding turns, theories and ‘studies’ in the poststructuralist ambit have modified the articulation between social sciences, aesthetics and politics. Branching out from these questions, one might also consider the ways in which social sciences and humanities are inherently calling themselves for reconfigurations and displacements in terms of reception, and teaching. Possible topics or approaches may include decolonial theory, ecocriticism, queer and gender studies, diasporic studies, transnational and transcultural theory, critical race studies, World Literature approaches. A focus on postcolonial/decolonial/anticolonial pedagogical issues will be particularly appreciated, as they not only address questions of corpuses but also fundamentally engage academic and teaching practices. How and where do we (re)invent these practices when academia, critical thinking, and dissensus are placed under such duress, especially in times of crises?

    Decolonizing Museum Cultures and Collections: Mapping Theory and Practice in East-Central Europe

    International conference for heritage scholars and practitioners

    This conference brings together curators, artists, scholars, and other intellectuals and cultural activists working on East-Central European heritage, to reflect on how the main trends of decolonial debate are intersecting in practical and theoretical terms with the heritage sector, with a particular focus on museums in the region. The conference will place special emphasis on mapping both the range of colonial histories embedded in, as well as decolonial approaches to, museum collections and practices in East-Central Europe.

    Politiques et géopolitiques de la traduction

    Circulation multilingue des savoirs et histoires transnationales de la géographie

    Durant les cinquante dernières années, le champ de l’histoire de la géographie a connu un mouvement de transformation de ces approches, passant d’une lecture par les écoles nationales à une appréhension par la circulation des savoirs et des connaissances à différentes échelles. L’histoire des sciences et de la géographe a ainsi incorporé des concepts tels que « transit », « reseaux », « mobilités», « transferts », « circulations », « centres de calcul », « espaces de connaissance », « géographie des sciences », « mobilité spatiale de la connaissance », « geographies de la lecture et du livre », etc. Plus récemment, un tournant a émergé, qui considère les dynamiques et les nécessités de décoloniser l’histoire de la géographie et de la production de savoirs géographiques. Cette thématique apparaît aujourd’hui comme l’une des plus actives dans le champ de l’histoire de la géographie.

    Le droit, l’éthique et le terrain : qu’est-ce qui change dans les pratiques scientifiques ?

    À la différence de l’ère analogique, où les règles juridiques n’étaient pas toujours connues, où leur interprétation se limitait à la question du droit d’auteur ou à celle du respect de la vie privée des personnes enregistrées dans les entretiens, et où l’anonymisation semblait la réponse à toutes les questions en suspens, le numérique a engagé une véritable réflexion sur ces questions, remettant en cause partie des méthodes de travail sur le terrain. Désormais, outre les nouvelles règles du RGDP – Règlement européen sur la protection des données, le.la chercheur.e doit savoir comment mettre en œuvre un plan de gestion de données ou quand informer la CNIL – Commission nationale de l’informatique et des libertés – des traitements des données personnelles mis en oeuvre. Il.Elle doit aussi prendre en compte les questions de citation des témoins, connaître les règles de durées conservation des archives comme l’invocation de l’exception historique ou de destruction… Le/la chercheur.e. peut-il.elle prendre une décision éclairée sur le terrain en étant pleinement au fait des droits, des devoirs et des conséquences de leur constitutions de corpus, des contraintes sur l’exploitation, la diffusion ou la transmission ? Quelles conséquences cela peut-il avoir sur les phases de collectes, d’archivage et de restitution ?

    Televising the socialist body

    Projections of health and welfare on the socialist and post-socialist screen

    Bodies and health on television have not been extensively researched, in particular in the socialist and transition to market-economy contexts.The conference seeks to analyse how television and its evolving formats –contemporary, similar and yet differing in national broadcast contexts– expressed and staged bodies and health from local, regional, national and international perspectives. The conference seeks to better understand the role that TV, as a modern visual mass media, has played in what may be cast as the transition from a national bio-political public health paradigm at the beginning of the twentieth century, to alternative societal forms of the late twentieth century when (supposedly) “better” and “healthier” lives were increasingly shaped by market forces.

    Locating medical television

    The televisual spaces of medicine and health in the 20th Century

    Medical television programmes, across their history, have had specific relationships to places and spaces. On the one level, they have represented medical and health places: consulting rooms, hospitals, the home, community spaces, public health infrastructures and the rest. As television-producers have represented these places, there has been an interaction with the developing capabilities of television technologies and grammars. Moreover, producers have borrowed their imaginaries of medical and health places from other media (film, photographs, museum displays etc.) and integrated, adjusted and reformulated them into their work.

    Quantum Social Theory: The Future of Sociology?

    In sociology, without explicit basis on quantum theory, numerous streams established strong similarities with it, setting at the forefront of their paradigm: the subjectivity of the observer, the continuous adjustment between the object and the observer, the impossibility to be fully deterministic or discussions about an objective reality. In this session, we invite panellists to discuss the links that can be drawn between quantum theory and sociology. We welcome both empirical (qualitative or quantitative) as well as theoretical papers. Depending on the variety and the quality of the papers, a publication will be considered to set the basis of this emerging theoretical stream.
