Death and Migration: Perspectives from the Post-Soviet Space
This dossier of Revue européenne des migrations internationales proposes to take up a research theme that has undergone a strong renewal of interest in recent years, that of death and migration. This dossier aims to shed light on an area which has been little studied from this angle (the post-Soviet space) and to develop an approach which focuses on the management of bodies 'dead in the distance' (deaths in migration, deaths due to migration). This dossier also focuses on the effects of a certain proximity to death on the practices of foresight and mutual aid (when they exist) in the migratory context, as well as their impacts on migration as a whole. Two thematic axes will guide the contributions: the first concerns the practical modalities of the management of dead bodies abroad; the second concerns mitigating and solidarity practices in relation to the proximity of death in migration.

Logics, stakes and limits of cultural heritage transmission in Eurasia
The thematic issue is about cultural heritage and patrimonialization. It aims at comparing the varying notions of “tradition” and “safeguarding of culture” within an empirical approach.We focus on conflicts about the creation of culture and how these globalised and specific contexts shape a changing self-perception of “ethnic identity” in Northern Asia, Central Asia and Eastern Europe.The articles may be on local as well as global expressions of cultural heritage: poetical genre, engraving or wood carving, architecture, ethno-parks or ecomuseums, cultural tourism, opposition to projects of valorization, etc. Analysis may also focus on the role of actors involved in local projects, on historical contexts or on international fashions.

Founding, selecting, defending: how to make democracy survive (1918-1960)?
Ce colloque international s’inscrit dans le projet de formation-recherche « Quelle démocratie ? La réflexion sur la crise, la modernisation et les limites de la démocratie en Allemagne, en France, en Angleterre et en Europe centrale entre 1919 et 1939 ». Ce projet pluridisciplinaire propose de revenir sur les réflexions autour de la démocratie de l’entre-deux-guerres en s’intéressant particulièrement aux discours critiques et aux projets de réformes issus du camp démocratique au sens large. Sa démarche consiste à insérer ces discours dans leurs contextes historique, idéologique et socio-culturel, tout en s’intéressant également à leur impact sur la vie politique et sociale de l’époque. Dans la logique de ce projet, ce colloque portera sur la question de l’enracinement démocratique, c’est-à-dire sur la question des moyens à mettre en œuvre pour faire survivre une démocratie en milieu (potentiellement) hostile.

History, politics and culture in Eastern-Central Europe
Protest and mobilisations in Eastern-Central Europe: actors, registers, methods (from the 19th century to the present day)
Ce séminaire collectif s’inscrit dans une perspective multidisciplinaire (histoire, histoire culturelle, sciences politiques, géographie, sociologie) sur un thème transrégional choisi pour l’année. Sans prérequis de langue, il est ouvert à tous. Les grandes causes sociétales comme la protection de l’environnement, l’égalité des genres ou la lutte contre la corruption, souvent articulées à des contestations du pouvoir politique, ont été investies avec intensité dans les pays de l’Europe médiane au cours des dernières années. Ces mouvements actuels invitent à interroger les formes des contestations et des mobilisations que cet espace a connues depuis le XIXe siècle, dans une perspective renouvelée. En effet, la circulation des acteurs, des registres et des modalités d’engagement conduit à analyser les transformations du politique et la dimension transnationale des mobilisations.

Science and literature: reciprocal inspirations
Central and eastern Europe (19th-21st centuries)
Charles Percy Snow (1905-1980), chimiste et romancier britannique, a consacré sa célèbre conférence The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution (Deux cultures et la révolution scientifique, 1959) à l’incompréhension grandissante entre la culture littéraire et la culture scientifique tout en montrant les dangers de cette scission pour le progrès de la civilisation.

A New Historiographical Field and its Contribution to the History of Europe
German-Polish history is an innovative and stimulating field in the history of Central and Eastern Europe and beyond. We propose to reflect the historiographical and memorial challenges that governed the formation of this field as well as the concepts and methods on which it has since been built. They are now the basis for the dynamics of the field, due in particular to its ability to associate different scales of analysis from the local to the global level. Special attention will be paid to the contribution of Polish-German history and other »bi-national« historiographies like Franco-German history to the project of writing European history especially when it comes to the specific approaches forged or adopted by historians in these fields (transfer, shared history, histoire croisée, connected history, entangled history, Zwischenraum).

Slovakia in Europe in the past century
L’objectif de ce cycle de conférences est de croiser les perspectives de différentes disciplines des sciences humaines et sociales sur le cheminement de la Slovaquie au cours de ce dernier siècle. Il s’agit en particulier de montrer en quoi l’expérience slovaque, aux côtés de celles d’autres pays de l’Europe centrale, mais souvent moins connue, enrichit la compréhension de phénomènes qui ont marqué le siècle : déplacements de frontières, disparitions et apparitions d’États, persistance ou disparition de communautés non slaves (Hongrois, Allemands, Juifs, Ukrainiens, Roms, etc.), compétition de modèles de société et circulation d’imaginaires et de styles artistiques. Ces phénomènes se sont accompagnés d’une modernisation accélérée du pays et d’un mouvement inédit dans sa construction en État-nation.

Internet, Digital Data, Power and Rivalries in the Post-Soviet Area
For more than a decade, Internet and digital networks have played a central part in most of the contemporary conflicts. Whether it deals with their storage, circulation, production or their manipulation (both literally and figuratively), digital data are being mobilized in a wide array of geopolitical crises and rivalries. Moreover, more numerous and diverse strategies are being developed to control these data as the ongoing datafication of society widens its reach into new areas of human activity. Computer piracy, the destruction of infrastructures and the manipulation of information have become tools in the hands of a growing number of actors willing to confirm or reverse a given geopolitical power relationship. The post-Soviet area constitutes a fertile ground for the deployment of such tactics and strategies of control. Disrupting the circulation networks, or the treatment and storage infrastructures of digital data, has progressively become a full-fledged strategy in the conflicts and rivalries that permeate this post-imperial space. As such, the struggle between several “imagined communities” (Anderson), grounded on diverging representations of memory, identity, and language, constitutes a powerful catalyzer of digital conflictuality.

Conference, symposium - Political studies
Final Conference of the ValEUR research project
The conference addresses the role, effects and meanings of values at the crossroads of politics, culture, market and law. It documents the circulation and shaping of values between the different spheres of the European multi-level governance (local, national, supranational, transnational). It investigates the EU as a container of values politics as well as its interactions with external entities (Council of Europe, UN, rest of the world). A secondary purpose is to map the research using values as an exploratory framework of wider transformations of politics, policies and polities in Europe. Leaders of scientific projects having developed such agendas in recent years figure among the contributors.
