    Médialité des odeurs

    The study of scents and all things olfactory is currently thriving, a sign of the great interest that our information-based societies feel for a sense which seems to offer a direct and immediate experience of reality. The conference The Mediality of Smells aims to develop the nascent interdisciplinary exchange around smells by examining the question of the media and the possible mediatisation of smells.

    Stages of Utopia and Dissent, 50 years on...

    15 May 1968: the Odeon theatre in Paris is occupied by students and becomes the insurgent headquarters where every night militants recount the days' action in occupied factories to an audience of people camping in the auditorium. Youth rebellion was never as mythologised as that of the French students’ fight against institutional oppression. The effects were felt across the Channel, too – but the nature of those effects was, and remains, disputed. 50 years on… where are we? What remains of autogestion and emancipatory education? What remains of theatre inventiveness and sedition? What remains of a need for participatory audiences? What remains of utopia and dissent?

    Kolloquium - Afrika

    Papier, ondes, écrans : du texte au public dans la culture populaire africaine

    This conference aims to reflect on the critical spaces of reading and listening that occur in and around popular cultural texts in Africa – from songs, magazines, romance fiction, and hip-hop lyrics, to blogs, facebook posts, and urban inscriptions. Drawing on the methods of cultural studies, material print cultures, and the sociology of reception, we seek to engage with the critical vocabulary generated by those spaces of reception at a time of transition for the book object and the reading practices which accompany it. How can this material be researched (archives, interviews, ethnographic observation, digitisation, databases)? How is/might it be integrated into teaching across disciplines?

    How to face the challenges of an increasing world population ant the preservation of agrobiodiversity

    The joint challenges of food safety and conservation of agrobiodiversity are making us rethink the issue of agricultural production. We have to produce more, but especially better in order to sustain biological diversity, mitigate climate change and adapt to it. This prospect urgently calls for the development of a sustainable crop production system that relies less on natural resources (soils, wateraquifer), fertilizers and protection products. There are probably many ways to address these challenges, and it is undisputed that science and technology have a major role to play in this respect.

    Kolloquium - Religionswissenschaften

    Religions et territoire

    L'étude empirique et quantitative de la géographie religieuse est un sujet nouveau, auquel le développement constant d‘outils techniques et conceptuels promet de nombreuses opportunités. Depuis la prise en compte de la dimension spatiale dans l'étude du religieux, le « tournant spatial », nous avons beaucoup à apprendre des mécanismes spatiaux du changement religieux. Et, bien que des progrès notables aient été accomplis sur la question de la géographie religieuse, de vastes perspectives s’offrent encore à la recherche, notamment pour l'analyse spatiale de données religieuses avec les méthodes formelles : un champ nouveau et prometteur est ouvert.
