Governance of International Film Festivals: From Rules to Legitimacy
The central issue addressed by this volume lies in the tension between the proclaimed “international” character of film festivals and the absence of a binding international legal framework regulating their activities, selection mechanisms, jury appointments, conflict-of-interest management, and transparency procedures. How do festivals construct their legitimacy? On what foundations is the credibility of their outcomes built?

By choosing to focus on South-North circulations, this seminar is dedicated to the deconstruction of the “British Empire” as a homogeneous category to write and think about the intellectual, artistic, and political histories of the people who circulate and inhabit this polity known as the Commonwealth of Nations in the post-Bandung era. Working from the assumption that committed artists, intellectuals and political activists from the Global South have networked and connected within this space, we seek to interrogate the counter-hegemonic nature of the knowledge, theories and artistic practices produced during the post-Bandung era.

La Guerre froide latino-américaine : dialogues globaux
Desde finales del siglo XX, las investigaciones sobre la Guerra Fría en Latinoamérica han adoptado un enfoque transnacional, centrado en redes que cruzan fronteras y actores no estatales. Estas investigaciones amplían el marco temporal, utilizando perspectivas más globales y basadas en fuentes de archivos latinoamericanos, con el fin de resaltar la agencia de los actores locales y alejarse del análisis bipolar tradicional. El objetivo del panel es visibilizar esta producción regional y establecer un diálogo con investigaciones de otras regiones, discutiendo metodologías, avances en el acceso a datos y la situación de los archivos en el continente.

Lieux et espaces de la démocratie
Perspectives transnationales depuis 1848
Cet atelier international se propose d’explorer l’histoire de la démocratie à la lumière des apports du spatial turn, et ce, à partir d’exemples aussi variés que possible et dans une perspective résolument transnationale. En plaçant la dimension spatiale au centre de l’histoire de la démocratie et en nous interrogeant sur les frontières, les interdépendances et les influences réciproques au-delà des frontières nationales, nous espérons faire émerger de nouvelles perspectives sur les systèmes démocratiques. Considérant que les révolutions de 1848 marqué la culture politique en Europe, l’atelier se focalisera la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle et le XXe siècle.

Translation and Translators in the Colonial Context
Roles, Functions and Narratives
The chronological reading of colonial contexts allows us to identify the “organic” link between translation and the colonial project, before, during and after the military occupation. Translation has acquired several functions; highlighting the role of the translator between the narratives of the colonizer and that of the colonized. Until 2000, seventy percent of the world's population had a “colonial” past, either as a colonizer or as a colonized. (Etemad, 258), which suggests that more than seventy percent of the world's population have been affected, and perhaps still are, through the prism of translation. The Conference will attempt to understand how translation was put at the service of the colonial project? What translation approaches have been adopted by translators and interpreters? How did translational discourse influence the cultures of the occupier and the occupied?

The Worlds of Pre-Modern Neutrality (ca. 1400-1800): Norms, Institutions and Practices
This symposium aims to contribute new insights to the long-term history of neutrality, focusing on its "pre modern" dimension broadly understood (ca. 1400-1800). Indeed, the law of neutrality started to emerge in the Early Modern Age through the practices and beliefs of the European state system, but also from its interactions with non-European normative and cultural systems. Different but complementary angles of approach can be used to understand this phenomenon: e.g. diplomatic history, IR history, political history, economic history and legal history. Throughout history, polities as well as private actors have interpreted neutrality in flexible and divergent ways, e.g. proposing a proactive-assertive approach or a more passive and inward looking one. Benefiting from multiple disciplinary perspectives, the symposium takes into consideration both the theory and the practice of neutrality, advancing our knowledge of the often-contested conceptualisation of legal regimes at sea as well as on land. Such a conceptualisation depended on the interaction between situations of peace and diverged across different temporal and spatial coordinates.

Le monde en polycrise: défis géopolitiques et réponses du droit international
Le monde se trouve au cœur d’une « polycrise », un enchevêtrement de crises qui s’étendent aux systèmes mondiaux. Le terme « polycrise » illustre la façon dont les crises mondiales sont interconnectées, entrelacées et s’aggravent mutuellement. Si ce concept est utilisé avec plus de clarté et de précision qu'il ne l’a été jusqu’à présent, il pourrait apporter des éclaircissements essentiels et nouveaux sur notre situation actuelle. C'est pourquoi l’Université européenne de Valencia lance un appel à communications sur les thèmes suivants : les approches conceptuelles de la polycrise, l’impact de la polycrise sur l’économie, l’intelligence artificielle dans le contexte de la polycrise, les nouvelles inégalités générées par la polycrise, les réponses juridiques et politiques au défi de la polycrise, l'environnement en tant que cause et « victime » de la polycrise, ainsi que l'impact de la polycrise sur la sécurité et les droits de l“homme.

La Guerre froide des latino-américains
Circulations révolutionnaires et contre-révolutionnaires
Pendant la Guerre froide en Amérique latine, la formation des identités individuelles et collectives, la configuration des espaces politiques et la structuration des idéologies et des ordres sociaux ont été marquées par des phénomènes de circulation. Dans le cas des études consacrées à cette période, la notion de « circulation », c'est-à-dire le déplacement ponctuel ou permanent d'acteurs au-delà des frontières géographiques, linguistiques et culturelles, a donné lieu à des travaux qui réinterprètent les plus diverses modalités transnationales de diffusion et d'appropriation des idées. Comme dans d'autres parties du monde, en Amérique latine, les circulations comprenaient des dispositifs culturels, matériels et symboliques qui ont façonné une jeunesse contestataire, inspirée par les projets de libération du Tiers-monde. Au même temps, des groupes et des acteurs contre-révolutionnaires, soucieux de rétablir l'autorité de l'État, dela famille et de la religion par des alliances à l'échelle planétaire, émergent en réaction aux courants transformateurs et tentent d'écarter la menace communiste.

Cross border communities and blurred citizenships in Africa: stakes and challenges
As part of the 7th Biennial Congress of the Association for African Studies in Italy (ASAI), we are organizing a panel on cross-border communities in Africa. This panel welcomes papers from various disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, particularly those interested in the individual and collective dimensions of territorialized and individualized relations at international borders, which Amilhat Szary and Giraut (2015) call “borderities.”

Histories of Photography from the Struggles for Independence: practices, circulations and aesthetics
It's a well-known fact that the history of photography as a discipline has for the most part been constructed as that of "Western" photography, more specifically that of Europe and the United States. Between the introduction of so-called "extra-Western" photographers on the contemporary art market since the 1990s and the numerous works on the history of the medium during colonial periods, there is still a lack of information on the history of photography from the liberation and independence struggles onwards, from a global and transnational perspective, across all geographical zones. The aim of this colloquium is to highlight the histories of photography generated during the processes of decolonization, while rethinking methodological and aesthetic approaches to the medium that are still too Western-centric.

Poder, arte e identidad en tiempos del duque de Lerma
En 2025 tendrá lugar el cuarto centenario del fallecimiento de Francisco Gómez de Sandoval y Rojas, I duque de Lerma, constituyendo esta efeméride una oportunidad para reflexionar sobre su figura y su tiempo. Lerma es, sin duda, una de las personalidades más fascinantes del rico y sugestivo panorama del Siglo de Oro español, tan compleja como controvertida y cuya lectura exige una perspectiva multifocal que permita acercarnos a su poliédrica personalidad.

Prensa, democracia e integración europea, 1975-1996
L’objectif de ce colloque international est d’aborder le processus d’intégration européenne et de consolidation de la démocratie en Espagne à partir de la presse, en comprenant ces deux processus comme des réalités qui présentent un profil singulier dans leur dimension de « constructions médiatiques ». Seront acceptées les propositions qui analysent les changements matériels qui ont lieu dans la structure de la presse espagnole (économique ou politique) en relation avec les processus de démocratisation et d’intégration européenne ; les recherches qui analysent le contenu publié dans la presse sur la manière dont l’idée européenne est présentée aux Espagnols ; ainsi que les travaux qui étudient les profils individuels ou collectifs des personnes ou des groupes impliqués dans ces processus.

A Transatlantic Mediterranean?
Circulations, influences and civilian and military cooperation between the United States and Southern European and Turkish spaces (1945-1980's)
The objective of this meeting is to contribute to a transnational and decompartmentalized history of the circulations between Mediterranean Europe and the United States between 1945 and the 1980s, which will make it possible to apprehend these relations from a global point of view and to analyze the way in which these links were able to generate circulations of influence between Mediterranean countries. The aim is to combine diplomatic approaches with the socio-history of these actors and with the analysis of the circulation of knowledge and modes of governmentality, by placing Atlantic military issues and policies in the wider context of intellectual mobility and cross-practices. The European and Turkish Mediterranean is understood here in a broad and political sense, from Portugal to the confines of the Anatolian peninsula. Similarly, the ambition is to see how these relations between Mediterranean Europe and the Atlantic space may have had effects on the Southern and Eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea, whether during or after the period of colonial domination.

Understanding the War in the Ukraine
CFP Forum Ukraine - The American University of Paris
The George and Irina Schaeffer Center for the Study of Genocide, Human Rights, and Conflict Prevention, and the American University of Paris hope to provide a virtual forum on May 9-10, 2022, for scholars from multiple disciplines and humanitarian activists to process the causes and consequences of the war in the Ukraine. Because of the urgency and ongoing nature of the conflict, we are not expecting polished academic presentations but short (10-15 minutes) thought pieces that help to elucidate various aspects and interpretations of the war. A primary aim is to give Ukrainian and Russian scholars the opportunity to express themselves and their point of view.
