  The cinema of insurrection

  Experiences and singular imagery in conflict and post-conflict situations

  Ce colloque est l’aboutissement d’un premier travail de recherche et de rencontre conduit avec des cinéastes et militants filmant de manière atypique les situations de conflits et post-conflits depuis plusieurs années ou décennies. L’objectif de ce colloque est donc de confronter les pratiques et les engagements d’artistes et de chercheurs enquêtant sur diverses situations de mobilisations ou de résistances armées, et sur la mémoire et l’amnésie constitutive de l’expérience historique des situations de post-conflits. Ces pratiques filmiques peuvent aussi inspirer les sciences sociales par leurs positions et leurs observations au plus proche des expériences de leurs interlocuteurs. En plaçant les travaux de ces cinéastes au centre des interventions, ce colloque entend aussi réinterroger les modes de savoir et les constructions de sens produits par l’image.

  Acts of justice, public events: World War II criminals on trial

  The conference suggests approaching trials of war crimes and of crimes against humanity, which took place in the aftermath of World War II and its following decades, as specific social events. By including professional and social actors (magistrates and police force, whistle-blowers, witnesses, defendants...) who got involved and shaped audiences of such trials, the conference endeavours to question the notion of publicization. It will cross this perspective with a study of the part played by the media supports in the organization and in the public reception of these trials.

  L’espace politique ukrainien : conflits et recompositions

  Les événements qui se déroulent aujourd’hui en Ukraine ne peuvent laisser indifférents les chercheurs en sciences humaines et sociales. Le colloque international « L’espace politique ukrainien : conflits et recompositions » vise à étudier les conflits et les recompositions qui ont lieu en Ukraine contemporaine dans leur complexité. Une perspective interdisciplinaire adoptée permet de faire dialoguer les approches politique, historique, économique, linguistique, sociologique et communicationnelle autour des concepts d’identité, d’espace public et d’équilibre géopolitique régional.

  Regions of Memory

  A comparative perspective on Eastern Europe

  Vis-à-vis the lasting memory boom now emerging as a global trend, we are asking then about regionally specific memory processes and research upon them in different parts of the globe. We welcome papers that answer one or more of the following questions: What kind of memory of mass violence accounts for regional specificity? What are the genealogies of collective and individual memories and forgetting related to mass violence in various regions? How and why do these images, narratives, and practices change and evolve? How do they influence the contemporary identity of a given region? And finally, how do scholars describe and interpret them? Do their concepts, categories and approaches follow the established Western patterns of memory studies?

  Gender Roles in Wartime

  Dynamization Of Gender Roles in Wartime: An East European Perspective on World War II and its Aftermath

  While numerous studies have explored the effects of the occupying regimes on the respective societies, the impact of World War II on Gender relations has generally been treated as a rather marginal issue. In recent years, however, some important studies have been published shining light on various aspects of gender relations in times of war in Twentieth-Century Eastern Europe, and focusing on women as perpetrators, e.g. as “Agents of Germanization” (Harvey 2003), or as victims of sexual violence .The conference intends not only to piece the existing puzzle together, but to explore the interplay of World War II and gender roles in East Europe in a broad context.
