"The Balfour Declaration" : What centenary
In order to address this notorious Declaration, we propose a debate on the historical, political and geostrategic circumstances that led to the Balfour Declaration, and how practical politics influences the making of Britain’s foreign policy. The Balfour Declaration and its ramifications at the local and global levels could be tackled with reference to a myriad of theoretical frameworks such as the postcolonial/political theory, new historicism, ethnography, to name but a few.

The massacre of Pya-Hodo in Kabiye, North Togo, 60 years later
The lessons of a past that isn't passing
À travers le prétexte de la répression coloniale de Pya-Hodo (au Nord-Togo) du 21 juin 1957, ce colloque veut revisiter la problématique des luttes anticoloniales en mettant en exergue les traumatismes causés par les répressions au sein des populations victimes. Ce sera également l’occasion de questionner la notion de « passés qui ne passent pas », tant les souvenirs demeurent encore vifs au sein des communautés qui ont enduré le martyr. Il s’agira aussi d’analyser de pareils cas dans d’autres espaces, que ce soit dans les territoires français, britanniques ou autres. Enfin, il sera question d’interroger la façon dont sont gérés les États africains, plus de cinquante ans après les indépendances.
