Conference, symposium - America

North American Studies in France and Europe

State of the Art and Future Prospects

In 1980, François Furet established the first visiting chair in North American studies at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in partnership with the French-American Foundation. Yet, it was not until 1984 and the election of Jean Heffer as permanent full professor that the Center for North American Studies (CENA) came into being. Despite pioneering efforts in some English departments and the creation of the first university chair in North American history at the Sorbonne in 1967, there was significant disparity between the importance of the USA in the contemporary world and the weakness of North American studies in France. Over the last thirty years and under the supervision of Jean Heffer and François Weil, the CENA has become one of the leading institutions for North American scholarship in France and Europe.

Conference, symposium - Sociology

Gender, ethnicity and religions: comparative Maghrebi migrations

Comparison between France-Quebec migrations, from 1945 to the present day

À la suite d’un premier colloque, tenu à Montréal en 2011, le présent colloque a pour but de poursuivre le dialogue qui s’y était engagé entre chercheur-es de différents horizons et disciplines. La perspective comparée doit permettre d’apprécier le rôle des acteurs, associations privées, organes gouvernementaux ou organisations internationales qui favorisent la migration au Québec et en France. Elle permettra, par ailleurs, d’analyser les récits et les imaginaires des migrants et la manière dont ils ont justifié leur départ dans l’un ou l’autre pays.
