Home as a place for anti-Jewish persecution in European cities, 1933-1945
Anti-Jewish persecution didn’t only happen in specifically designed or transformed spaces such as camps and ghettos. It invaded spaces of everyday life in European cities: public spaces, work places and private spaces such as homes. In this landscape not only Jews and agents of persecution appear but also their immediate residential environment: concierges, neighbors, nannies, landlords, property managers, sub-tenants, local administrations, etc. These figures have an essential place in the memories of Jewish survivors. Though, so far, scholars have hardly addressed their role. The spatial turn that occurred during the last fifteen years in Anglophone Holocaust studies focused on the symbolic places of genocide. It mostly neglected apartment blocks and ordinary cities as spaces of persecution. This conference thus intends to focus on urban housing as a place for anti-Jewish persecution.

Desertions, Counter-movements and Forced Mobilities in the Contemporary City
First International Conference on Anthropology of Urban Conflict
Social conflict is inherent in urban society in general. Social conflict is a historic constant that makes cities the epicenter of revolt in all of its forms. Despite our attempts to systematically classify the varied logics that lay behind existing disparate scales of uprising, e.g. large mass movements, small groups organized around blueprint actions, or individuals that quietly rebelled with daily contempt, to date it has not been possible to bring them all under a common systemic defiance. Political movements vs. social movements, peaceful vs. violent actions, organization vs. spontaneity, etc., these are old dichotomies overcome by the force of the present situation. So, how does conflict come about in contemporary cities? The varied kinds of agitation featured in the current crisis are a good example of the different types of rebellion against public order, the norms that sustain it, and the authorities that implement them. From a demonstration against government cuts to apolitical graffiti somewhere on the urban fringe, from insubordination against mortgage repossessions to the refusal to pay for the use of public transport, from symbolic happenings performed in public spaces to the defense, at any cost, of squatted housing, of neighborhood resistance against evictions or of the opposition to identification raids on undocumented migrants. -

Migrations, conflits et recompositions sociales et économiques dans les villes internationales
Les villes internationales donnent à voir la diversité, la plasticité, la complexité des configurations migratoires. Lors de cette journée d’études, nous croiserons la question migratoire avec certaines approches de sociologie urbaine et de sociologie économique afin appréhender les dynamiques de recomposition très actives dans les métropoles internationales. Nous regarderons comment se construisent des situations de domination, de conflit, de tension et de violence mais évoquerons aussi les arrangements locaux qui naissent de co-présences inédites entre populations migrantes entre elles et avec les non-migrants. Ainsi, de l’échelle micro-locale au « grand territoire », en passant par la mobilité intra-urbaine, nous interrogerons les transformations des espaces urbains, des univers de références et des formes d’inscription politiques déterminées par la présence des migrants et la nature des circulations de biens et de services. -
