    Terrorism, Counter-Terrorism and Anti-Terrorism in Contemporary Europe (1960s to the Present): Internationalisation, Circulation and Representations

    The aim of this conference is to examine the modalities and consequences of terrorist action, as well as the interweaving of anti-terrorist practices (public policies, legal frameworks, prevention) and counter-terrorist practices (operational, military or police actions) aimed at containing terrorism in societies which are not engaged in international warfare. The aim of this conference is to analyse the ways in which anti-terrorism and counter-terrorism have mutually redefined each other, while constantly reconfiguring the boundaries of political, military, police and legal interventions across the European continent from the second half of the 20th century onwards.In addition to this political and institutional approach, the conference will also look into the representations, as well as the social and media effects of these phenomena.

    Guerre, americanismo e antiamericanismo dal XX secolo all’attualità

    Diacronie. Studi di storia contemporanea

    Since its entry into World War 1 in 1917, the United States has played a pivotal international role across political, economic, cultural, and military arenas. This trajectory has been characterized by waves of both Americanization and anti-Americanism, with military interventions increasingly assuming a central role—albeit with notable distinctions. The United States has been consistently engaged in overseas operations. This call for papers seeks to explore the complex relationship between wars, Americanism, and anti-Americanism from the 20th century to the present.

    The European space. Geo-economic balances and State powers in the long run

    In the construction of the European space(s) a crucial role has been played by economic actors and relations, which often overpass national borders and intertwin with the nature and roles of political powers and national States. Even well before the last globalization (or re-globalization), traditional government systems were pressed by the internationalization of economies: by centrifugal pushes, the need for external resources, or the emergence of new actors on the international stage in economic, technical, and social fields, that have increasingly influenced both the private and the public life. In more recent times, then, a new institutional framework developed at the supranational, European, level getting new functions and involving actors, such as trade unions, charities, business interests, scientific institutions, and churches, reinforcing the dynamics of cooperation, integration, and convergence beyond national borders.

    Antimilitarisme et société en Italie (1970-2020)

    Depuis la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, les USA sont présents militairement en Italie, notamment en Sardaigne et en Sicile qui, en raison de leur position stratégique dans la Méditerranée, sont des lieux centraux de décisions, d’opérations et d’exercices militaires, en lien avec les conflits internationaux (au Moyen-Orient, en Afrique du Nord, ou encore au Yemen pour le conflit russo-ukrainien). Cette journée d’étude et de débats vise à comprendre comment ces mouvements et collectifs travaillent à la transmission de leurs luttes et à leur réactualisation dans le panorama militant du pays.

    (Re)reading travellers to the East

    Shaping identities and building the nation in post-unification Italy

    The conference (Re)reading Travellers to the East, shaping identities and nation-building in post-unification Italy approaches early modern travel literature (15th-18th centuries) from an innovative historiographical perspective. Rather than to discuss the documentary value of these sources for the times and spaces in which they were produced, the aim is to focus on the re-readings and re-editions to which they have been subjected, in order to highlight how travel literature has been (re)used for political and ideological purposes. The conference examines the way in which these early modern documents have been mobilised, since the 19th century and up to the present day, in the context of the formation of collective identities and nation-building. The conference focuses on the relations between the Italian peninsula and the countries which, in modern times, were referred to as the Orient, the Indies or the Levant.

    The Agreements of the Holy See with States (19th-21st Centuries)

    Models and Transformations, from Confessional States to Religious Freedom

    This conference will explore the international legal agreements signed between the Holy See and individual states, which often but not always took the form of concordats and similar conventions. Its central focus will be to examine these conventions in light of diplomatic practices, as well as in relation to the political and religious dynamics of the nineteenth through the twenty-first centuries, notably the principles and requirements that comprised modernity. This entails assessing the historical evolution of the typology, method, content, scope, and spaces concerned.

    Between France and Italy - exchange and intellectual networks in the 19th century

    Transalpina journal issue 21

    La revue Transalpina, depuis sa fondation dans le cadre de l’équipe de recherche caennaise Identités, Représentations, Échanges (France-Italie), s’est régulièrement intéressée à la problématique de la réception de la littérature italienne en France. Dans les volumes précédents, l’attention des chercheurs s’était portée sur la traduction et la vie des productions italiennes dans le contexte français, sur l’histoire de la circulation des textes et des idées de la péninsule dans l’hexagone et sur différentes traces des auteurs italiens de l’autre côté des Alpes. Ces publications, auxquelles il faut ajouter d’autres ouvrages collectifs publiés à Caen et à Paris, ont porté souvent sur un intervalle chronologique large, pour souligner la permanence et les constantes dans les échanges intellectuels entre France et Italie.

    Living underground as a strategy for political struggle. Modes, discourses and social dynamics from the 19th century until today

    Cette journée d'études doctorale internationale a pour objectif de questionner la clandestinité en tant que catégorie d'analyse : au-delà de la dissimulation qui caractérise la plupart des actes illégaux ou transgressifs, quelles sont les caractéristiques des luttes politiques qui choisissent de s'organiser dans une illégalité prolongée ? Quels parallèles peut-on tracer, quelles oppositions et quelles évolutions depuis le XIXe siècle ? La variété des situations interroge la valeur heuristique du concept lui-même.

    France et Italie (1956-1967)

    les rapports bilatéraux ; le cadre européen et les rivalités économiques ; les cultures politiques ; les rapports cinématographiques et audiovisuels ; les échanges artistiques et culturels

    Ce colloque international, organisé par trois membres du Gerci, Leonardo Casalino, Alessandro Giacone et Marco Maffioletti, examine les médiations et les rapports franco-italiens de 1956 à la veille de 1968, une période de grand dynamisme économique, social et politique. Après avoir observé les rapports diplomatiques et bilatéraux entre la France et l'Italie, les communicants étudierons leurs rivalités économiques au sein d'un marché européen en cours d'unification et les différences qui pendant cette époque ont marqué leurs cultures politiques. Ce colloque se terminera par des communications sur les rapports entre le cinéma, l'audiovisuel, l'art et la culture italien et français.

    Italians in the Congo and Italians from the Congo

    Images, writing, works of a global Italy (from 19th to the present day)

    Le colloque international qui se déroulera à Metz (France) du 16 au 18 octobre 2014 aura pour but de procéder à l'inventaire et à l'analyse des œuvres littéraires et cinématographiques évoquant le Congo - ou plus généralement l'Afrique centrale -, réalisées par des auteurs italiens, à partir du XIXe siècle jusqu'à la fin des années 80. L'interférence entre productions culturelles et mouvances idéologiques, ainsi que la représentation, endogène ou exogène, de l'Italie au cours de la période sélectionnée, constituent les autres axes de recherche prioritairement définis. Parallèlement aux réflexions en cours consacrées à une Italie glocale, cette rencontre scientifique aura ainsi pour vocation d'interroger l'évolution de la relation Italie / Congo, considérée comme un prisme à travers lequel il est possible d'entrevoir plus largement les rapports entre le Belpaese et le monde extérieur.
