La Guerre froide latino-américaine : dialogues globaux
Desde finales del siglo XX, las investigaciones sobre la Guerra Fría en Latinoamérica han adoptado un enfoque transnacional, centrado en redes que cruzan fronteras y actores no estatales. Estas investigaciones amplían el marco temporal, utilizando perspectivas más globales y basadas en fuentes de archivos latinoamericanos, con el fin de resaltar la agencia de los actores locales y alejarse del análisis bipolar tradicional. El objetivo del panel es visibilizar esta producción regional y establecer un diálogo con investigaciones de otras regiones, discutiendo metodologías, avances en el acceso a datos y la situación de los archivos en el continente.

Métamorphoses de la littérature à l'ère de l'image : expériences ibériques et latino-américaines
Numéro thématique de la revue CECIL (Cahiers d’études des cultures ibériques et latino-américaines)
L'exploration des relations entre l’écriture et les images constitue une caractéristique essentielle des littératures de la péninsule ibérique et de l’Amérique latine depuis, au moins, les avant-gardes des premières décennies du XXe siècle. Ce processus ne se résume pas au renforcement de procédés et de figures déjà rencontrés dans les tendances littéraires antérieures, comme la métaphore ou l'allégorie, mais englobe la thématisation et l'incorporation d'images proprement dites dans les textes, surtout – mais pas exclusivement – celles rendues possibles par les nouvelles techniques de production et de reproduction apparues au XIXe siècle, comme la photographie et le cinéma.

Subjectivités et liens communautaires dans les sociétés et les créations centraméricaines et caribéennes
Alors que géologues, stratigraphes, chimistes et climatologues débattent encore aujourd’hui de la pertinence scientifique du concept d’anthropocène, et tandis que l’action communautaire et la littérature imaginent et testent déjà des mondes possibles pour vivre en harmonie avec la planète et les êtres vivants avec qui nous la partageons, la menace d’un désastre imminent semble être plus présente que jamais parmi le grand public. La fin du monde serait-elle pour demain ? Ce colloque propose de réfléchir à la façon dont les désastres (catastrophes naturelles, pandémies, guerres civiles, dictatures, etc.) affectent la construction des subjectivités individuelles et les liens communautaires.

Philosophy and the National Question
Taking as its starting point the idea of “philosophical nationalism” proposed by Jacques Derrida, this seminar aims to question the way in which different national and nationalist discourses have accompanied both the construction of modern philosophical historiography and the development of comparative or intercultural philosophy. The division of the world into “philosophical nations” still constitutes today the starting point of any comparative effort and leads to making the “dialogue between traditions” a discourse tending to legitimize national ideologies.

Religion and immigration in the United States and Canada: A Bottom-Up Perspective
In recent years, there has been an upsurge of interest in the religious beliefs and practices of immigrant populations in both popular and academic discourse. While this topic is most often addressed as part of larger conversations about multiculturalism and social cohesion within the broader society, scholars are increasingly turning their attention to religious identities as experienced by the immigrants themselves. This conference will take a “bottom up” approach to explore how religion has factored into the migrant trajectories, lived experience, and imaginaries of newcomers to the United States and Canada from the nineteenth century through to the present day.
