  Thinking the Latin American right wings

  IVth International Congress

  The IV^th International Congress Thinking the Latin American right wings follows the three previous ones held in France (2014), Argentina (2016) and Brazil (2018), which have permitted the constitution of a community of researchers working on Latin American right-wings. Several specialists from different countries and disciplines have joined in this network, in order to promote projects and studies on this theme, and stimulated the development of new issues related to this political family. The use of various methodologies such as the analysis of political traditions and cultures, representations and imaginaries, identities, networks, sensitivities and memories have made it possible to consolidate a field of study that has become relevant to understand current Latin American political scene.

  Utopia in a Post-secular Society: at the Cross-sections of Literature and Philosophy

  48th Annual Convention, Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA)

  An element that seems to characterize the 20^th century reflection on utopia is its secular nature. Through a re-thinking of the place and roles of religion in society, the post-secular turn we are witnessing in recent theory (Habermas, Taylor, Asad, Mahmood) may provide a critical point of departure for questioning this specific aspect of utopian tradition. In this panel, we invite papers that reflect on the relationship between utopia and religion, as it is worked out in 20^th century literature and philosophy: How does the place of the utopian tradition change in the context of the “return of the religion” in a post-secular society?

  Democracy and politics through the prism of dystopias

  La dystopie (ou contre-utopie) est une fiction présentant le futur d'une façon cauchemardesque et effrayante, afin de mieux éclairer les dangers potentiels contenus dans les évolutions présentes. Ce colloque se propose d'étudier, d'analyser et de comparer les représentations, récits et discours dits « dystopiques » – tant politiques, scientifiques qu'artistiques (littérature, cinéma, musique) - mettant en garde contre les risques anti-démocratiques ou régressifs liés aux tendances actuelles (bouleversements climatiques, destruction des ressources naturelles, modifications génétiques et pharmacologiques, contrôle et surveillance informatique, etc.).
