  Transitional justice and the French Revolution. Year III

  La notion de « justice transitionnelle », définie par un rapport du secrétaire général de l'ONU sur le « rétablissement de l'Etat de droit et [l']administration de la justice pendant la période de transition dans les sociétés en proie à un conflit ou sortant d'un conflit » (2004), peut-elle aider à comprendre l'année 1795, l'an III de la République française ? En s'interrogeant sur les notions de victime, de réparation, de mémoire, de réconciliation, de garantie de non répétition, le colloque invite à des échanges sur la pertinence de cette notion pour comprendre un moment-clé de la Révolution française.

  Nationality in war (1789-1991)

  War, a time of exterior confrontation and interior reordering, is a critical moment when forms of social and national inclusion and exclusion are reconfigured. The nationality of individuals becomes a crucial issue, acquires a new meaning and takes on fresh theoretical, legal and practical dimensions. War also changes borders, resulting in the arrival or departure of populations, making questions of nationality an integral part of peace treaties. Outside periods of conflict, war influences representations and definitions of, as well as reflections on, nationality: whether the issue involves increasing population growth, rooting out “national evils”, tracking down domestic foes or defining loyalty and national dignity, the shadow of war always looms in the background. The symposium will focus on all these dimensions in the relationship between war and nationality during the contemporary age (1789-1991), which for our purposes can be divided into three periods.
