  Sedition and revolt in modern european political thought

  We wish to bring together international contributors once more in a discussion of the political thought brought about by various uprisings between the end of the Middle Ages and the modern era, whether it be reflections over a particular event, or more general considerations over the causes of sedition and protest movements, the means to prevent or suppress new episodes, and their adverse – or regenerative – effects. This analysis will focus on political writings composed for government use or for a wider audience – memoirs and reports, as well as treatises on the statecraft that proliferated throughout Europe in the modern era and saw wide acceptance. There is a tendency in the current literature to make use of historical examples that are distant in time and place, and a need to consider the possible repercussions of theoretical reflection from experience drawn from recent or contemporary revolts.

  Protections versus Societies. Latin America in the 19th and 20th Centuries

  The symposium “Protections versus Societies” invites researchers of history and the social sciences to collaboratively reflect on the history of social protection in Latin America and its contemporary manifestations. The objective will be to deepen our understanding of the debates concerning the history of social protection and reforms of social security, debates which have gained a new depth and urgency over the last decades, originating in regional policies of free trade and agendas of privatization of public health, education, and social security.We want to explore how these and older transformations, present from the 19th century onwards, played a critical part in the process of modifying the way societies were constructed and thought in Latin America. The 19th century mutual societies with their associative function would be one example, as well as the later precarization of public social security arrangements and its impact on the proliferation of the so called “Societies of Risk”. This makes the study of the performative dimension of social protection paramount, with regards to how it led to the extinction, conservation and transformation of different types of societies.

  Europa en torno a Utrecht

  V Seminario de Investigación de Historia Moderna (SIHMO) 2013-14

  Los Tratados de Utrecht-Rastatt (1713-1714), aun asentados en el pasado, supusieron para Europa la modificación de su presente y, en gran medida, configuraron su futuro. El V Seminario de Investigación de Historia Moderna (SIHMO), organizado por el Grupo de Investigación de Historia Moderna de la Universidad de Cantabria, reflexiona en torno a las impacto de la Guerra de Sucesión española y de los acuerdos internacionales de paz alcanzados en Utrecht-Rastatt en el marco jurídico, cultural y político europeo, valorando especialmente sus repercusiones en el largo proceso de construcción europea, que se había comenzado a definir a principios dela Edad Moderna.
