The Maghreb of Anthropologists : Actors, Practices and Spaces
The conference The Maghreb of Anthropologists : Actors, Practices and Spaces will focus on these shifts in the anthropology of the Maghreb. It will investigate the emergence of new actors, practices and spaces within and in relation to Maghreb anthropology, whether these are thematic, methodological, linguistic, bibliographical, conceptual, theoretical or epistemological in nature. It will also raise questions that are more institutional and that relate to issues of training, career trajectories and, more broadly, the power structures that shape higher education.

Digitization of Scholarly Knowledge through the Prism of Research Practices
Memories, Uses and Critical Issues
Organized within the CollEx-Persée Digitization program, this conference invites critical, collective and interdisciplinary reflection on the transformations induced by digitization in research practices and scholarly uses. How do choices of corpora, tools or formats shape research practices? What kind of memory of science is thus produced, made visible, or, on the contrary, devalued? What mechanisms—existing or in development—can ensure that the digitization of academic literature effectively supports research practices, whether traditional or emerging?

Montpellier
Call for papers - Science studies
This symposium is a direct extension of the “Fiction & Social Sciences” meeting organized in May 2024, dedicated to contemporary articulations between fiction devices and social science methodologies. The exchanges initiated on this occasion made it possible to deepen already long-standing reflections on the relationships of competition, tension, but also complementarity between academic and fictional writing, paying particular attention to emerging practices such as fictional investigation. The central challenge was to analyze how the hybridization between the documentary and fictional genres shifts the ways of investigating, writing and reproducing research results.

Practicing the Archival Commons
Publics, Power and Perspectives
This workshop seeks to examine refigured archiving work currently undertaken in Africa as well as to learn more about the ways in which this refigures scholarship. Introducing the concept of the ‘archival commons’, it particularly aims at studying diverse forms of archiving as common, communal or communing practices that have significant effects on both preservation and critical historical work.

Liège
Call for papers - Early modern
This conference offers a fresh perspective on the Palace of the Prince-Bishops of Liège in the 16th century, examining it as a place of power, representation, and artistic creation. Drawing on a critical re-examination of the archives and a material analysis of the monument, the conference will explore the political, cultural, and architectural ambitions that shaped the palace. Structured around three themes—historical and diplomatic context, artistic and intellectual dynamics, and a study of construction sites, materials, and techniques—it aims to convey the full complexity of this iconic site in the history of the Principality of Liège.

Temporalities of the Far Right
Turning-Points and Perceptions of the Past in Germany, France and Western Europe since 1945
The conference aims to examine the far right’s relationship with time from a Franco-German and European perspective. It is divided into two parts: the first explores possible periodizations for this political movement after 1945, and the second examines its ideological and discursive relationship with time.

Call for papers - Representation
Desktop Films: Forms, Uses, Circulations
This conference stems from an interest in an emerging form of filmmaking, the desktop film or screen film, arising from the convergence of two related phenomena: the exponential acceleration in the circulation of moving images enabled by digitization and the development of Web 2.0, and the evolutions in audiovisual and media creation that incorporate digital aesthetics and practices into their modes of operation. Positioning ourselves within the field of post-media studies initiated by Lev Manovich in 2001, and more specifically within what is now referred to as the field of “post-cinema”, this conference seeks to foster a resolutely interdisciplinary reflection (Art Studies, Film and Audiovisual Studies, Information and Communication Sciences, Cognitive Sciences, Anthropology, Narratology, etc.) structured around the following axes: semiotic and multimodal approaches; narrative and discursive approaches; actors and Networks; archaeology of the Desktop Film.

Research on the Displacement of French Document Collections in Europe (1930–1950)
In June 2027, La Contemporaine will host an international symposium dedicated to the study of the displacement of documentary collections across Europe, including France, between the 1930s and 1950s. At the crossroads of historical studies, book history and provenance research, this event aims to document and analyse the trajectories of these documentary collections, whether or not they were subject to spoliation. An overview of similar research in other countries and of the challenges posed by the documentary processing of collections will complete this analysis.

Contextual Physics of Ambiances
International Journal of Sensory Environment, Architecture and Urban Space
Architectural ambiances encompass a complex interplay of sensory, emotional and cultural perceptions that shape how a space is experienced. Regarding their physical dimensions, ambiances include elements such as light, sound, textures, temperature and odours, which are shaped through social and spatial configurations to create a unique experience. The physical metrology of ambiance phenomena, relying on precise measurement tools and protocols, allows for an analysis of the objectifiable dimensions of sensory phenomena.

Les transitions territoriales face aux crises globales contemporaines
In response to the global environmental crisis and the aporias of sustainable development, the concept of transition has spread as a central paradigm of public policy, despite –or perhaps because of– its vagueness and its instability depending on how it is used by a wide variety of actors. While transitions are often thought of in a sectoral and segmented manner, the territory has emerged as an integrative framework that promises to synchronise sectoral dynamics, stakeholder interactions and highly diverse scalar logics, enabling THE transition to take shape from multiple transitions.

The Changing City in Roman and Late Antique Africa: Actors and Scales of Transformation
Ce colloque s’inscrit dans le renouvellement des études sur l’urbanisme provincial romain, stimulé par les approches postcoloniales et par une attention accrue portée aux acteurs locaux. Appliquée à l’Afrique du Nord, cette perspective trouve dans l’épigraphie un terrain d’expression privilégié : les mutations urbaines y sont souvent perceptibles à travers des changements de titulature, des réajustements institutionnels, l’apparition ou la disparition de collèges civiques, ou encore la transformation des pratiques honorifiques.

Négocier l’image. Les pratiques photographiques dialogiques en anthropologie
Revue « Civilisations »
This thematic issue of Civilisations journal seeks to examine dialogical photographic practices in which the image becomes a space of exchange. Particular attention is given to collaborative practices that make photography a site of multidisciplinary intersections and of the co-creation of knowledge and visualities. The issue adopts a transdisciplinary approach, bringing together anthropologists, historians of the image, artists, and practice-based researchers.

Collection d'anthologies numériques
La collection publie des recherches qui s’inscrivent en priorité dans le domaine des sciences historiques, mais accueille volontiers diverses perspectives issues d’autres champs disciplinaires. Les Living Books peuvent avoir différents objectifs, comme proposer un bilan historiographique d’un courant de recherche, circonscrire les contours d’un nouvel objet d’étude, offrir une introduction à une thématique, illustrer différentes manières d’interpréter un corpus spécifique de sources ou encore analyser les enjeux d’un changement de paradigme.

Showing the “reality” of bodily engagements, showcasing manual skills
Issues and paradoxes of the digital capture of manual work
Organised as part of the ANR project Me3dAx, this study day aims to explore how contemporary digital technologies for capturing, preserving, modeling, or disseminating digital data can affect so-called “manual” practices—i.e., work-related, leisure, or semi-leisure activities that require bodily engagement.
