Narrative forms and co-production in Arab cinemas
Norms, constraints, and margins of freedom
Film industry in the Arab world remains generally underdeveloped. Arab countries still depend on international film support funds, mainly European. This puts Arab producers, scriptwriters and filmmakers in a subaltern position in relation to European producers and funders, whose expectations in terms of content as well as narrative and aesthetic forms end up strongly impacting the film creation process. On the other hand, margins of freedom and resistance can be created within this system. This edition of Regards aims at addressing the complex relation between Arab cinemas and international film support funds.

VIth Mediterranean Congress of Aesthetics
Facts and Values in Aesthetics: Contemporary Stakes and Approaches
In a text entitled The Collapse of the Fact/Value Dichotomy and Other Essays (2004), Hilary Putnam argues convincingly against a classic opposition which does not serve philosophical reflection positively. Putnam’s analysis mostly focuses on the theory and practice of knowledge, but one can legitimately extend it to other fields, starting with that of aesthetics, which sooner or later is confronted with the question of whether one defends or rejects the dichotomy. Keeping or rejecting it implies reasons to do so, but often these reasons remain implicit, most especially in aesthetics.

Villes et cultures en Méditerranée
Approche historique, géographique et économique
Cette première journée d'études sur « Villes et cultures en Méditerranée » sera consacrée à la fois à une approche théorique et méthodologique du concept de « villes culturelles méditerranéennes » et à des études de cas précises de villes méditerranéennes (Marseille, Séville, Barcelone...), confrontées à des exemples choisis dans le Nord (Lille 2004) et l'Est de la France (Lorraine). Elle sera suivie d'une seconde journée (le 10.04.09) qui mettra l'accent sur l'opération « Marseille 2013 - capitale européenne de la culture » ainsi que sur le phénomène des « friches culturelles » dans les villes méditerranéennes.
