Intersectional Challenges in Afroeuropean Communities
8th Biennial Afroeuropeans Network Conference
The conference aims to consider how Afroeuropean communities are shaped by the intersections of ‘race’ and ethnicity with other markers of identification such as gender, class, sexuality, ability, age, citizenship status, language… Informed by intersectional thinking and its rejection of unidimensional perspectives in activism, policy and research, the conference explores how diverse processes of privileging and discrimination interact, making for complex and dynamic experiences of what it means to be Afroeuropean. It acknowledges that the racial and ethnic alterity of Afroeuropeans intersects with other identities (e.g. male, female, queer, working class, religious, disabled, aged…) and specifically seeks to examine to what extent these intersections create new alignments and opportunities.

The mechanics of qualitative analysis
Si, en sciences sociales, l’analyse qualitative interdisciplinaire est surtout pensée en termes de rencontres méthodologiques entre la sociologie et l’anthropologie, force est de constater que l’analyse qualitative est aussi le fait de chercheurs issus d’autres disciplines, telles que les sciences politiques, les sciences de l'information et de la communication, les sciences de l’éducation ou encore les sciences infirmières. En outre, au-delà de la recherche fondamentale, se dessinent également les démarches qualitatives relevant de la recherche appliquée. Nous pensons notamment à la recherche-action. L’ethnographie et l’anthropologie réflexive semblent alors pouvoir enrichir la méthodologie mise en œuvre dans ce dernier type de recherche. Le but de cette journée d’étude est de questionner ces différentes démarches de recherche, appliquées dans différents domaines des sciences humaines et sociales, de découvrir la « mécanique » sous-jacente à ces démarches et de révéler, éventuellement, la manière dont elles pourraient s’enrichir mutuellement.

Normal or ordinary, accomplished or autonomous?
Life and its shapes for people suffering from chronic mental issues in and after psychiatry
La psychiatrie contemporaine est traversée par d’importantes lignes de tension qui opposent différentes conceptions de ce que sont un trouble et un malade psychiatriques, de ce qu’il faudrait entreprendre pour permettre aux personnes concernées d’accéder à une vie meilleure, et enfin de la façon de définir cette vie. L’objectif de ce colloque est de cerner les façons par lesquelles une perspective de sciences humaines et sociales peut aider à mieux décrire et comprendre les pratiques quotidiennes, les discours théoriques, les espaces, les acteurs (avec une attention particulière portée aux personnes malades), afin d’en dégager les conceptions de la vie et du vivant humain qui y évoluent et s’y entrechoquent parfois, formant ainsi le paysage normatif complexe des mondes de la psychiatrie contemporaine.

Conference, symposium - Information
Actors or instruments of the construction of a sense of community, ethnic and national belonging?
The International Conference offers to facilitate a discussion about the role of media in the construction of political identities. Media have always played the role of actors, sometimes of instruments, in the process of shaping community, ethnic and national identities as well as in shaping "imagined communities" usually induced by political actors in particular historical developments. Media discourse on the community, the ethnic group or the nation is never autonomous. It can be considered a collective production pertaining to one or another network of actors. In order to understand this process, it is important to place the content of the media in its production context. What is the role of the journalists and the media in the creation, renewal and maintenance of community, ethnic or national identities?

Informality, International Trade and Customs
The objective of this conference is two-fold: to promote applied research on the relationships between States, customs administrations and local importers of the so-called developing and emerging countries and to deepen the analysis of informality as a reality in international trade in a multi / inter disciplinary perspective (social anthropology, law, economics, history, political science, and sociology). Professor Keith Hart will deliver a keynote address.
