    Multiple Identities

    Problems, methodologies and historical sources from the Antiquity to the present day

    The PhD students in History at the University of Pisa (Italy) are pleased to announce a call for papers for a three-days online seminar (December 10-11-12, 2020) concerning the multifaceted concept of identity and its many dimensions. The seminar aims to grasp the complexity and intersection of different affiliations and identity constructions throughout history. In this sense, we will share new methodological and epistemological approaches, with a diachronic, global and interdisciplinary perspective.

    The Schizoanalytic Clinic

    La deleuziana, a journal that desires

    The schizoanalysis created by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari is critical-clinical. It is critical as it conjugates various knowledge and practices by freeing against all reductionism the transversality of the flows that trace a problematic. Schizoanalysis has profoundly influenced the practice of some important reference points in the social psychology of Argentina and Uruguay, and later in Brazil. However, this stimulating and favourable reception of schizoanalysis in South America is quite exceptional. Not only do we find nowhere else analysts who claim to be schizoanalysts, but even today it is largely ignored in clinical circles. It is in this perspective that this call for papers wishes to engage a presentation of the different theoretical and practical developments of schizoanalysis that currently affect the exercise of psychotherapy, although in reality this aspect is constantly overwhelmed. The aim is to identify the clinical perspectives that have proliferated in the wake of schizoanalysis to map emerging clinical practices.

    Languages of urbanization and visions of the city

    This section will focus on the representations of urban spaces and urban lives in the Americas, with special regard to the languages and the social practices that convey – or that have conveyed in the past – the idea of “making the city”. We are especially interested both in grassroots movements of urban resistance and in counter-hegemonic representations of the urban space. We welcome contributions on practices of re-appropriation of the city, on the strategies of resistance to the processes of gentrification, on the relationship between urban space and subaltern groups (minorities and/or subcultures) and on the ways in which the urban space has been represented, reimagined or invented in literature, cinema, comics, music, photography, television, visual arts.

    Ebullient Africa: Conflict, Modernity, Religion

    IV ASAI Conference

    Depuis la guerre froide le continent africain est le théâtre d’une instabilité politique accrue. Malgré le regain démocratique qui émerge au début des années 1990, des pratiques contestataires, plus ou moins unanimes, comme le renversement du pouvoir en place (Printemps arabe, Burkina‐Faso…), les soulèvements populaires face à la révision de la Constitution (République Démocratique du Congo), la contestation des élections (Burundi) questionnent aujourd’hui la viabilité du régime démocratique en Afrique. Si la notion d’instabilité politique renvoie à la propension d’effondrement gouvernemental, celle de conflit est déjà une conséquence de cette action. L’insécurité accompagne désormais la transition démocratique et les conflits se multiplient.

    Research, Politics, Ethic and Militancy in the Human and Social Sciences

    This panel seeks to provide a reflection on a multidisciplinary basis about the ethical implications on research in humanities and social science related to the objects of study. These objects potentially induce the researcher to "adopt" (even indirectly) one or more of the parts/reasons involved.

    Pourquoi transmettre la connaissance des arts ?

    La contribution des musées

    Dans une société toujours plus matérialiste où les savoirs sont essentiellement jugés au regard de leur utilité instrumentale, comment justifier la transmission des savoirs artistiques ? Quels en sont les enjeux de citoyenneté ? Et quelle peut être la contribution spécifique des musées ? Faisant suite au colloque organisé en 2009 au Palais Strozzi, Pourquoi enseigner l’histoire de l’art ?, cette nouvelle initiative permettra d’échanger sur un vaste ensemble de questions allant des principaux enjeux démocratiques de la connaissance artistique dans notre société, jusqu’aux techniques pédagogiques les plus efficaces, notamment celles recourant au numérique. Avec cette manifestation, notre souhait serait d’engager un cycle biennal qui permettrait de faire régulièrement un « état de la transmission artistique » en Europe. Tous les deux ans, un grand musée européen accueillerait ainsi la réflexion la plus large sur cette question assurément déterminante pour l’avenir de la démocratie telle que nous la cultivons. Un monde où l’art et la pensée demeurent une condition de la liberté.

    At War with Words

    Letters, diaries and memoirs of soldiers, women and children in the First World War

    What were the feelings, the perceptions and the mental attitudes of soldiers and civilians, of women and children, during the war? What strategies of psychological resistance did they employ in response to such destabilising experience? It is possible to answer these questions by consulting the wide variety of writings produced by the combatants and by the civilian population "mobilised" during the conflict. These letters, diaries, and memoirs – some still hidden in old drawers, though many collected in 'folk writing' archives – are also of considerable narrative and historical interest, due to their linguistic peculiarities, and their efficacy as depth-probes and guides into the war. This conference will address the methodological debates that are still ongoing, while presenting texts of particular significance, as well as the results of European research in historical and linguistic fields.

    Dynamics of repopulation in mountain areas: new highlanders

    Observing the recent situation of demographic trends in the Alps, it is possible to put in evidence an interesting turnround in some alpine territories, especially alpine marginal areas. This situation invests not only the Alps but in general the European mountain territories, where the effects of this turnround become evident: from requalification of old villages and the creation of technologic buildings, to implementation of different forms of tourism (green tourism, soft tourism), from experimentation of new services (through ICT solutions), to implementation of sustainable mobility policies and finally to creation of green entrepreneurial activities.
