  Heritage and otherness

  Le 4^e colloque étudiant de l’IPAC propose d’étudier le concept d’altérité et son rôle dans les interactions humaines propres au domaine du patrimoine culturel. Il vise à stimuler une réflexion sur la façon dont la diversité et la pluralité culturelles agissent en tant qu’agents patrimoniaux fédérateurs, d’intégration et de compréhension de « l’Autre » ou comment, au contraire, des ruptures, tensions ou désintégrations du vivre ensemble peuvent se produire. Bref, comment le patrimoine représente-t-il un pont culturel entre Nous et les Autres, ainsi qu’un instrument de division potentiel ? Quel rôle joue le patrimoine et quel levier représente-t-il dans un monde qui semble avoir perdu ses repères, ses racines et son identité ?

  Questioning Spaces of Citizenship in Latin America and the Caribbean

  Latin American History Graduate Student Conference

  Scholars often invoke citizenship as an analytic frame to understand the history of Latin America and the Caribbean. While the concept can encompass a broad range of topics, this conference will focus on the spaces where individuals and groups come into contact with the institutions and symbols of the state. These spaces may be physical places, institutional settings, discursive realms, or other fora. In this graduate student conference, we will ask how such spaces of citizenship are constructed, delimited, and at times rejected, and how the terms of interaction and negotiation in these spaces are defined and re-defined.
