Il s’agira d’examiner à la fois les contenus publiés et les logiques socio-techniques qui structurent leur production, leur circulation et leur hiérarchisation, ainsi que leurs modalités d’appropriation par les communautés en ligne.

Anarchist Spaces: Practices, Ideas, and Networks (c. 1870–Present)
This conference proposes to examine the spaces that self-avowed anarchists, as well as those who borrow from anarchism but do not identify with the ideology, have invested, produced and contested since the second half of the 19th century. The concept of “space” should be understood capaciously. It can be material and immaterial, ideological or symbolic, permanent or temporary, integrated or liminal, open or closed, real or imagined. Likewise, “anarchism” is to be understood broadly. For the purposes of this conference, anarchist spaces are not only those linked to a self-identified anarchist movement (in all its multiplicities). They also include spaces that may rather be seen (or see themselves) as autonomous, self-managed or anti-authoritarian, but which embody anarchism more or less implicitly through their day-to-day, activist, and revolutionary practices.

Reflecting on the richness of poor cinemas around the world in the 21st century
This symposium aims to put into global perspective the aesthetic and economic issues as well as the analysis of the creative and distribution processes that were at the heart of the study days devoted to low-budget cinema in France, which took place in 2024. Without romanticising the lack of resources, how can we define the theoretical, practical, political, economic and aesthetic contours of these ‘poor cinemas’ in a contemporary international context? What specific filmmaking processes ensure its existence? What original film forms emerge from it? What parallel distribution channels do these films require to be created and defended?

The New History of the Age of Gunpowder in Asia
The aim of this issue of Bellica is to bring together articles exploring the new history of the “age of gunpowder” in Asia from the 10th century to the present. By studying the origins, evolution, uses, and consequences of firearms in Asia over the last millennium, this collection of articles aims to highlight the recent opening-up of military history to the non-Western world, without denying the West’s importance.

Call for papers - Ethnology, anthropology
Revue « Terrain » n° 87
This special issue of Terrain aims to put newborns at the heart of anthropological analysis of collectives. Every birth is preceded by alliances, precipitates ruptures or reconfigurations, and opens up possibilities. It represents both an unpredictable encounter and a beginning, a fragile possibility for the perpetuation and preservation of the highest values. The aim of this issue is to take seriously the disruptive force of babies, from their undecided ontological position. While babies may not obviously make “heads turn and worlds go round” everywhere, as Nita imagines, their sudden appearance certainly creates disorder and reorganization that must be examined. This issue will attempt to do so.

Polymorphism and polycentrism in women’s religious engagement
Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania, 1400–1900
This conference is intended as an opportunity to examine the manifestations of religiosity of women who were not fully considered by the Catholic Church as members of its body, such as beatas, consecrated virgins, beguines, bizzoche, penitents, tertiaries, puellae, as well as sisters of religious congregations, from 1400 to 1900.

The Accident Beyond Risk. An Anthropology of Interruptions
Revue « Terrain » n° 86
This issue of Terrain proposes to explore forms of accidentality that lie outside industrial and insurance-based norms of the “risk society.” Through ethnographic, historical, or documentary inquiries, the aim is to approach the accident as a lens revealing social tensions, material imbalances, technical arrangements, or subterranean affects. Far from being a mere rupture, the accident here becomes a heuristic operator—a revelator of world orders.

Langues locales et (éco)développement
La journée d’études Langues locales et (éco)développement (LoLaDev) propose de s’intéresser aux pratiques langagières et à la circulation des savoirs dans les contextes de développement et d’écodéveloppement dans les relations Sud-Nord et Nord-Sud. Plutôt que d’alimenter la discussion concernant les langues internationales, notamment celles prenant l’anglais comme point central des politiques linguistiques des projets de développement, cette journée a pour objectif principal de proposer une réflexion sur les pratiques langagières des acteurs et actrices sociaux issus des contextes dans lesquels ces projets sont implantés.

Paths, braiding, hybridizations: a planetary history of architecture and the urban
Revue « Transversale, histoire, architecture, urbain, paysage » n°9 (2025)
What we will question for this issue 9 of Transversale is how an architect's perspective and practice are formed when he travels or receives instruction abroad, and whether or not this results in a weaving of influences; is to question architecture as a paradigmatic cultural crossroads: figures of astonishing travelers-architects naturally, but also methods, processes, measurements, itineraries, flows...

Underground Monuments in the Literatures and the Arts of the Global South
During this conference, we will aim to question the modalities through which an underground power could be exercised and embodied, one that refuses to establish domination, whether through its actions or through the signs that materialize it. We propose to conduct this reflection from the perspective of the Global South, as spaces that are often identified, notably, by the subordinate position they are deemed to occupy within historical, cultural, and economic power relations in colonial or postcolonial contexts. Reflecting on the conditions under which an underground force and monumentality might emerge could allow for a reconfiguration of the established balances within the Global South, by considering other criteria for defining power.

New figures of esotericism in contemporary Africa and beyond (Europe, America, Asia, Oceania)
RELIER. Interdisciplinary journal of religious studies
Cet appel à contribution a pour objet l’exploration des nouvelles formes des mouvements liés à l’ésotérisme occidental et oriental dans le monde. Il s’agit de savoir comment (média, personnes) est-ce qu'ils se diffusent et s’organisent dans les pays du globe où ils s’implantent. Le projet est de documenter les aspects qu’ils prennent à travers leur cohabitation ou évitement des spiritualités, traditions et/ou religions locales, leurs matérialités et activités ou pratiques (rituelles), de même que leur importance dans la sphère religieuse et la société (au sens large) de leur payas d’adoption.

Tropical fruit sectors undergoing change
How are stakeholders in tropical fruit export sectors participating in and adapting to these changes in terms of market flows and consumption habits? How are relations between stakeholders being redefined? And what are the spatial implications of those changes? This call for papers welcomes studies based on what the French academia refers to as the “approche filière” but we are also interested in papers favoring a global value chain approach, this broad view of value chain taking into account the power relationships between upstream and downstream players, whatever the scale. This call for papers welcomes studies research into diverse geographical areas, based primarily on field surveys, and stemming from a range of disciplines studying relations to space.

Ethnic and Religious Minorities and their Media in the English-speaking world
This one-day conference, organized by GRER-ICT Les Europes dans le monde (UR 337, Université Paris Cité) and IHRIM (Université Clermont Auvergne) is dedicated to illuminating a crucial yet underexplored area: the media (written press, radio, television, internet, etc.) of ethnic and/or religious minorities in Great Britain, the United States, South Africa, and other English-speaking countries. These minority media, operating on the fringes of the dominant mainstream media, are not just a significant platform, but also an essential lifeline for the ethnic and/or religious minorities they represent.

First interdisciplinary approach to World Nights September
The interdisciplinary colloquium on “Nights of the South” will provide an opportunity for researchers from different disciplines, artists, association leaders, practitioners and elected officials from many countries to take stock of this work on and in the Global South. The aim will be to better understand the evolution of urban and rural nightlife and the ways of living and inhabiting nights at different scales according to cultures, countries, territories, cities; to identify evolutions, tensions, inequalities of access, but also strategies for the development or protection of nights carried out by different actors; and to reflect upon the preferred forms of governance of the night.
