  Religions and Politics in Europe's Orients (14th-20th c.)

  The goal of this conference is to explore a number of aspects of the relationship between the religious phenomenon and politics through the historical framework of political developments in what progressively will become, through interaction, the Orients of Europe, i.e. Eastern and Southeastern Europe as well as the Eastern Mediterranean, an area so unorthodox and difficult to examine in terms of essentialist definitions. It is no accident that Samuel Huntington believed that what we call the ‘Orthodox East’ does not form a part of the West, but rather a sui generis encounter between Christianity and Islam at the borders of Europe. This theoretical scheme is not overturned by drawing the borders of Europe a little further to the East, as many believe, but by historicizing the issue of the relationship between religion and politics in the given geographical region through the comparative prism of what was occurring during the same period in Western Europe.

  Voisinages fragiles : les relations interconfessionnelles en Méditerranée orientale et dans le Sud-Est européen

  Contraintes locales et enjeux internationaux, 1854-1923

  À l'heure de l'élargissement partiel et problématique de l'U.E. en direction du Sud-Est européen et de la Méditerranée orientale, ce colloque organisé par l'École française d'Athènes vient aborder une des questions les plus brûlantes dans la région et ayant souvent donné lieu à des simplifications caricaturales, parfois lourdes de consèquences. En abordant l’histoire des relations interconfessionnelles de 1854 à 1923, nous nous proposons d’adopter un point de vue relationnel étayant la variété des contacts, la multitude des stratégies des individus comme des institutions, le rapport complexe entre religions, identités et politique, enfin le rapport ambigu entre Orient et Occident, plutôt que de présenter un énième essai, facile et rassurant, de définition essentialiste des identités religieuses et de leur correspondance parfaite et diachronique à des identités nationales.
