Paysages sentinelles et arts du refuge

Sentinel Landscapes and the Arts of Refuge

The interdisciplinary research field emerging from ecological humanities depicts a situation in which the ontology of our relationship with nature is being disrupted, altered by the intrusion of new entities and phenomena, and by the resulting change in human modes of perception and action. In particular, the distortions of scale and temporality implied by the notion of the Anthropocene – which are taking shape in the territories of the critical zone –, are eroding our entire relationship with the world. Numerous investigations have thus focused on the now inextricable intertwining of the geological and the historical, the non-human and the human. With regard to the already abundant literature on the Anthropocene, this conference aims to bring together studies, creations, and perspectives around the concept of the “sentinel landscape,” instructing a semiotics of low-noise catastrophe.

Unleashing Transformative and Decolonised Education for Sustainability in a Globalised World

The theme of the conference is grounded in the transformative learning paradigm applied to education for sustainable development (ESD). ESD is a central element in promoting “enlightened citizenship” for all students, but also in training future professionals who will integrate a sustainable development approach into their work, regardless of the sector. This call for contributions is based on UNESCO’s 2030 Roadmap for Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), published in 2020 and the 2022 Berlin Declaration, which places transformative ESD at its core.

Speculative narratives from the margins

Social alternatives, decolonial ecologies, and critical knowledge

Choosing the margins as the main focus of this conference will help to examine how speculative fiction disrupts hegemonic narratives, bringing to light subaltern or minoritised modes of knowledge, temporality, and resistance; how it operates somewhere between the end of the world and the possibility of a new beginning to allow us to imagine other ways of inhabiting the Earth and of projecting ourselves collectively into the future. Proposals exploring these issues through the study of narrative processes, cultural appropriations, andintertextual circulations, will be welcome.

Cut/generate

Montage and artificial intelligence

The proliferation of machine vision systems and generative artificial intelligence (AI) models has recently transformed part of our visual culture, giving rise to new typologies of moving images that require us to re-examine certain key concepts. This international conference will explore the implications of AI algorithms and models on the concept and practice of montage, questioning its historical theories, analysis and gestures, as well as its forms and techniques in the field of generative images.

Written Culture, Text, Democracy

Nos 50 anos da nossa democracia, o Centro de História da Universidade de Lisboa organiza um colóquio sobre texto e cultura escrita na Democracia, pelo ângulo da teoria - os textos enquanto tradição e reflexão permanente sobre o regime - e da prática - os textos e os seus suportes como materialidade necessária para o funcionamento do regime e que também decorre da sua prática. Bibliófila e bibliófaga, a democracia depende de texto, da escrita, da palavra.

Environmental philosophy

“Síntesis”, Philosophy Journal

“Is there a need for a new environmental ethic?” asks the article by the Australian philosopher Richard Routley. This statement, rooted in the inaugural reflections of Aldo Leopold in 1973, signifies the starting point of a new philosophical and moral exploration of the natural environment. This emerging field of applied ethics gains traction in social, political, legal, and international debates, compelling an increasing demand for philosophical insights. It challenges established relationships with the natural, material, cultural, and animal realms, prompting a call for a fundamental reconfiguration of our politics, institutions, justice systems, ethics, and our understanding of the subject. The primary object of this special issue is to spotlight the ongoing philosophical reflections on the environmental crisis prevalent in the Anthropocene society.

Deciphering God’s historic plan for humanity. In memoriam Claude Geffré

Deciphering God’s historical plan for humanity is a task to be taken up again and again. More than ten years after his last book (Le Christianisme comme religion de l'Évangile), we want to pay tribute to Claude Geffré by exploring the new directions taken by theological research on the subjects and themes that he himself worked on. Papers will be presented over four half-days.

Technocritique(s). Reflection upon 3.3 million years of human technical externalization

Wherever digital solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) have spread, whatever the creative domain or human activity, the impression of having a total, even universal, all-terrain technology has never been so strong. We cannot ignore that the digital revolution, while apparently offering simplicity and ease-of-use is accompanied by a rather remarkable invisibilization of technology’s infrastructure, leaving its users ignorant to the processes and material elements that encompass even the simplest tools. Homo comfort, as the Italian anthropologist Stefano Boni calls it, lives in a hypertechnological world, in which he is ignorant of most of its systems. How can one understand the least-effort infrastructure in which we live when recontextualized within nearly 3.3 million years of technological externalization ? Were 3.3 million years of experimentation necessary to arrive at this point, or rather, did we need to collectively forget our entire history in order to accept our current situation?

Digital democracy: promises and illusions

Internet neutrality, access to information, democracy formats

A stable and peaceful society is based on a solid and strong democracy. The democratic model is the future of any society that respects human rights.New information and communication technologies and the still poorly regulated advances in Artificial Intelligence have impacted not only all human activity, but have also contributed to reshaping the relationship with politics, citizen participation, political communication and politics, national and international. The purpose of this international conference is to question the phenomenon of electronic democracy not only from an instrumental point of view (e-voting tool), but to question the conditions of possibility and possible limits.

The native podcast: understanding its development, questioning its future

Ce colloque international a vocation à interroger la place du podcast en France et en Europe. Pourquoi, alors qu’il ne présente pas une innovation de rupture majeure et qu’il existe depuis longtemps, le podcast s’est-il récemment développé aussi rapidement et aussi fortement ? Comment expliquer les ressorts et les enjeux sociaux, économiques, technologiques de ce succès et de ses ambivalences ?

For a geography of territorial transitions?

Conceptual frameworks, methodological challenges and critical perspectives

Les territoires sont-ils des accélérateurs de la transition ? C’est ce que semblent suggérer les nombreuses réflexions actuelles sur les contributions du territoire - de ses acteurs, de ses proximités, de ses héritages, de ses ressources et de ses échelles -, aux transitions des modes d’habiter, de produire et de consommer, des systèmes de gouvernance et des rapports au vivant, etc. Mais quels sont les ressorts analytique, méthodologique et éthique de cet engouement territorial ? Traduit-il l’émergence d’une « géographie des transitions territoriales » ? Quels en seraient les contours, les caractéristiques et les visions de la transition véhiculées ? Avec quelle pertinence et quelles limites pour affronter l’urgence écologique et les enjeux de justice associés ?

Les femmes dans les processus de paix et de sécurité en Afrique

From the Women’s Decade instituted by the UN between 1975 and 1985 to the Beijing Conference in 1995 to its evaluation in 2005 at the Beijing +10 meeting in New York, the gender issue has taken an increasingly important place in international meetings on human development. While gender equality is still a topical issue, the debate is shifting towards the role of women in pre- and post-conflict situations, particularly in conflict prevention, mediation, negotiation and resolution. This call for contributions aims to understand the reasons for the absence of women in the decision-making spheres of conflict prevention, mediation and resolution. Moreover, the final objective is to propose solutions for an increased representation of women in these mechanisms.

Visions, Voices, Signs, Signification

The organisers of the HHH-2023 conference invite paper proposals from their colleagues in the Human Sciences who can elucidate for their peers the hermeneutical and semiotic principles which were operative in the ideas that peoples in earlier times and in non-Western cultures entertained about the languages they spoke. We are particularly interested in proposals which investigate the belief that, in one guise or another, language is “a gift from the Gods to men”.

AI: ArtIntelligence

“InterArtes”, 2023 - Number 3

Today, technological advances seem to point towards the artificial creation of complex singularities. The process of artistic creation is clearly at the heart of this paradigm shift whose implications are as much aesthetic and scientific as they are ethical, political, and then legal, economic, social, environmental... The third issue of InterArtes will be devoted to critically questioning the relationship between “Artistic Creativity and Automation”, both with theoretical contributions and with essays of a historical and empirical nature.

« Dans l’espace, personne ne vous entend crier, ou peut-être bien que si »

“In space no one can hear you scream, or can they?”

« Dans l’espace personne ne vous entend crier », l’accroche publicitaire, devenue iconique, du film Alien de Ridley Scott souligne le rôle prépondérant joué par les « voix, sons, bruits, silences » en science-fiction. Pour Nis Gron, « William Whittington a démontré combien Alien (1979) a été un tremplin essentiel qui a montré l’importance et a permis le développement de la bande sonore, notamment dans l’utilisation expressionniste des effets sonores, des sons ambiants et des bruitages dans les films de science-fiction ». La science-fiction joue avec les complexités et les contradictions des « sons et silences » à travers les bandes sonores et au sein des intrigues.

Impact and prospects of the Abu Dhabi declaration for the living together of Christians and Muslims

While it is difficult to assess fully something that is still unfolding, PLURIEL 4th International Congress aims to provide a forum for the discussion and evaluation of the reception of the Document on Human Fraternity on the occasion of its 5th anniversary. What has been the impact so far of the Document on Human Fraternity concerning the coexistence of Christians and Muslims around the globe? As in previous editions, the Congress will bring together the perspectives of scholars of multiple disciplines. It will be organized according to three main areas of analysis, while allowing for overlaps: sociojuridical, geopolitical, theological-dialogical.

Global changes and transition management: in the singular or plural form?

Major disruptions impact present times on a global scale that should engage our societies to adapt to face the consequences of these changes. Besides observing and evaluating changes, it is necessary to prepare men and women to become aware of their roles and influences to implement the required transitions. Scientific research has a duty to contribute to debates on the urgency of the situation and how to accompany climate, energy, digital and democratic transitions. The symposium organised by the research team Sphères of the University of Liège invite you to take stock of these issues of global changes and the transition management.
