Mother Figures and Representations of Motherhood in English-speaking Societies
This conference aims to question the various ways in which motherhood is judged, how political choices are translated into cultural representations of mothers as either icons or scapegoats, and how these representations are received and challenged in a quest for either conformity or agency.

Undertaking and translating culture. The study of Amerindian cases
En el mundo contemporáneo indígena y amazónico especialmente, observamos desde hace algún tiempo nuevas maneras de mostrarse o darse a ver, a veces a través de un intercambio de servicios o una prestación cultural, que remite a formas empresariales poco investigadas como el ecoturismo comunitario, la danza folklórica, la gastronomía indígena, la empresa comunitaria, entre otros. Para difundir esta oferta, los modos de comunicación modernos utilizados son variados: videos, blogs, redes sociales, etc., que incluyen escrituras diversas. A partir de estudios de casos etnográficos precisos, nos interrogaremos sobre la relación entre las formas de mostración indígena y los contextos económico, social y político en los que emergen; los contenidos expuestos y sus formas; los actores involucrados en estos procesos; y lo que es un empresario indígena hoy en día. El objetivo de este panel es el de presentar las premisas de una investigación sobre estos problemas emergentes.

Nine years and counting: Stephen Harper and the new Canada
Canadian Studies Review n°78 (June 2015)
This special issue of Etudes Canadiennes/Canadian Studies intends to explore what’s new in Canada, nine years after the coming to power of the Conservatives, four years after Stephen Harper won the election that gave him a majority government, and at a time when Canada is getting ready for the next federal election. While the contributions are expected to focus on the Conservative initiatives to shape this new Canada, they will also be encouraged to compare them with other societal and global factors that may contribute to a changing Canada.
