Statues, memories and representations during the decolonial era
Nakan journal, no.1. A cultural studies journal
Nakan aims to impulse innovation in the epistemological field of cultural margins. To this effect, the journal’s first issue will focus on the following theme: “Statuary, Memories, and Representations in the Decolonial Era”. The objective is to elucidate the recent events that saw the degradation of statues representing historical figures linked to slavery or colonialism in multiple parts of the Caribbean, Africa, Europe, and the United States. This topical issue fits in a context-based reflection on margins spurred by such social movements as Black Lives Matter, among others. What could be the core motivations leading to such actions? The journal invites scholars to a scientific investigation on statuaries and colonial discourse, heritage, memory, myth, and coterminous questions.

Cartographical and topological identities
La carte symbolise le problème de la relation identitaire du sujet face à la diversité et la complexité de l'espace. Cette relation invoque le paradoxe de notre condition postmoderne. Le besoin d'ancrage dans des espaces multimensionnels, multifonctionnels, trans-historiques, aux frontières parfois fluctuantes, met en exergue la nécessité d'établir de nouvelles cartographies et topologies identitaires prenant en compte le recul les limites du champ de la perception humaine. Dans quelle mesure la relation à ce type d'espace influe-t-elle sur nos modes de vie ? Comment la carte et ses représentations topologiques afférentes influent-elles sur notre fonctionnement mental, sociétal et esthétique ?
