Telling and narrating closed Latino-American spaces in a global world

Après une première journée d'étude sur les imaginaires des limites, le Centre d'études des langues et littératures anciennes et modernes (CELLAM) et la revue Amerika (université de Rennes 2) accueilleront une deuxième manifestation sur ces thèmes. Y seront abordés les rapports aux frontières, aux espaces clos et aux dynamiques de ségrégation et de fédération au sein des imaginaires des Amériques.

Counter-mapping in the Americas 16th-21st centuries

Quels enjeux se trouvent derrière les dynamiques contre-cartographiques dans le contexte des Amériques ? Dans quel contexte les logiques contre-cartographiques peuvent-elles se mettre en place ? Comment se créent-elles et de quelles impulsions émanent-elles ? Quels savoirs sont mobilisés dans les processus d’élaboration contre-cartographique ? Dans quelle mesure parviennent-elles à déjouer les représentations hégémoniques de l’espace ?

The Right to the City in the South, everyday urban experience and rationalities of government

Ce colloque international propose de travailler la notion de droit à la ville depuis les villes du Sud. Il s’attache à en restituer la portée critique et souhaite soumettre à la réflexion collective la notion de droit à la ville de fait, forgée dans le cadre d’un programme de recherche collaboratif, DALVAA. Il invite donc des participants de disciplines et d’institutions variées, à engager un dialogue sur le rôle des expériences citadines dans la mise en ordre socio-spatiale des villes du Sud.

Waste Sciences, Knowledges and Practices

European, North and Latin American perspectives

Waste has emerged as a main environmental, economic and social issue in the last fifty years. The convergence of interests from various fields of reflection and action suggests a potential and fruitful “epistemological turn”. Yet this process is still on the verge of formalization. Research and decision on waste organizational and representational systems remain either fragmented or dependent on local context though some waste management recommendations arise from worries on the global consequences of discard. Hence this international symposium aims at opening transatlantic conversations between academic, technical and artistic areas in order to clarify how waste challenges our everyday sciences, knowledges and practices.

Texts, territories, technologies: another extraordinary journey

6th Hispano-Luso- French conference

Ce colloque interdisciplinaire se propose d'analyser l’évolution de ces savoirs mobilisés tels que la langue, la littérature, la géographie, les sciences « dures » ou encore l’histoire. La prise en compte de ces savoirs « hétérogènes », les mécanismes de leur transmission, ainsi que le développement individualisé que ces sciences ont eu, seront au cœur de nos interrogations.

Madrid, traces and traced (1950-2000)

La ville, lieu « où se trame l'existence humaine » comme le formule Lewis Mumford offre un carde de réflexion applicable aux villes modernes. Le choix de Madrid est un choix comme un autre, nul besoin de l'expliquer sinon que rien ne disposait cette bourgade médiévale à devenir capitale, encore moins métropole. Les approches seront croisées, sociologiques, urbanistiques, littéraires, linguistiques et historiques.

Describing, inhabiting and governing Urban Fringe Landscapes

Narbonne, France, 5th to 7th november, 2014

The goal of this conference is to question European urban fringes, which we define as precise or graduated transitional spaces where the city leaves space for something else : countryside, forests, “nature,” wasteland or fallow awaiting projects... These urban fringes can be understood at different scales, from the overall agglomeration down to the quarter or even at the installation project scale. This conference is designed as a moment of exchange making it possible to compare research and management experiences around this original object concentrating numerous issues. Different axes of analysis are proposed : Landscapes and urban fringe physiognomies ; agricultures and cities ; nature and biodiversity ; Urban margins : marginalising and social mixing ; Urban limits under constraint: risks and protected spaces.

Communication in the tourist sector: strategies for all participants in the areas of tourism

International conference

Although the tourism communication concept is still to be defined precisely, this international conference aims at exploring the relationships between communication strategies for those who are involved in the tourism industry and tourists. A further complication is that lots of areas are more and more very proposed with a particular identifying emblem. Communication in the tourist industry today is diverse and, from a tourist’s point of view, very confusing. The Conference aims to provide a critical dialogue beyond disciplinary boundaries: Communication research, Geography, Cultural Studies, History, Sociology and Tourism Studies. We’d like to investigate in particular the areas and the actions of communication in the tourist sector.

Espaço e ilusão. Teatros, arquitetura e património na Península Ibérica

O Simpósio internacional de arquitetura "Espaço e Ilusão. Teatros, arquitetura e património na Península Ibérica" pretende abrir um diálogo entre estudiosos e técnicos protagonistas de ambos os países, responsáveis pelo estudo desta temática e pelo projecto e execução de muitas das intervenções recentes em espaços teatrais. O impacto destas realizações na deslocação dos novos equipamentos dos centros (históricos) para novas centralidades comerciais, a recuperação de teatros e auditórios como factores de redefinição do tecido urbano, a importância de novas linguagens e de formas de interacção do público com os espaços, a influência das novas tecnologias nas soluções arquitetónicas e cenográficas, são alguns dos temas a abordar no Simpósio.
