    Global Justice and New international Ordrer: The Case of Sino-african Relationships

    The reconfiguration of the current world order within the contemporary international society constitutes the general framework of our reflection. Emerging countries such as Brazil, Russia, India and China aim to weigh on the course of history and to re-shape a balance of powers dating back to the end of the twentieth century. These countries intensify their external policies towards strategic areas rich in raw materials, especially in Africa, where Western nations also have interests. The persistence of global poverty, according to Pogge, refers to global justice, since this phenomenon results from a world order that structurally endorse an injustice which, furthermore, is not in line with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

    Judging the Past in a Post-Cold War World

    The collapse of the Soviet Union accelerated the search for justice and truth on the part of many millions of people whose lives had been overshadowed by the cold war, in many countries, for nearly half a century. Demands for justice and for recognition of suffering and loss have resulted in national Truth and Reconciliation Commissions, prosecution (or attempted prosecution) of state officials, politicians and military officers and the construction of monuments and memorials as sites of memory. They have inspired an outpouring of literary and artistic works, and a flourishing film and documentary industry. This conference aims to trace these various ways of judging the past both in the countries at the centre of the Cold War and in those that were swept up in the wake of its confrontations. How have we and how can we come to terms with a past that is still so present? The organisers seek contributions on attempts at redress, for example, legal and social, or through the arts, media and literature.

    Conference, symposium - Oceania

    Destins des collectivités politiques d’Océanie

    Peuples, populations, nations, États, territoires, pays, patries, communautés, frontières

    Le colloque a pour mission première d'éclaicir les concepts et de les mettre à l'épreuve des diverses expérimentations dont l'Océanie est riche, mais aussi, tout ce débat étant au service d’une mission, de pouvoir progresser dans l'organisation politique concrète des collectivités en connaissance de cause. Il s’agit ainsi tant d’aboutir à une perception exacte du sens des mots et du contenu des notions afin de parler un langage exact et commun, que d’acquérir la connaissance de ce que l'imagination et les pratiques, ailleurs que chez soi, ont pu produire.

    The future of the political authorities in Oceania

    People, populations, nations, States, territories, countries, homelands, and borders

    Cette recherche sur les différentes formes des et autour des collectivités politiques d’Océanie présente de multiples intérêts.Tout d’abord, sous l’égide du CNRS, elle sera le modèle même de manifestation scientifique propre à alimenter la recherche Ensuite, d’un point de vue situé, cette manifestation sur l’Océanie se tiendra en Océanie. Elle fera un temps de Nouméa, en Nouvelle-Calédonie, une capitale scientifique, et attestera qu’on peut aux antipodes de Paris mener recherches et controverses doctrinales d’autant plus intenses qu’à proximité de leur objet. Pour la Nouvelle-Calédonie, à ce moment de l’évolution de son évolution institutionnelle, en 2011, pendant l’avant dernière mandature de l’Accord de Nouméa et en vue des moments décisifs, cette manifestation constituera une essentielle expertise préalable.
