  5th International "Language and Territory" Colloquium

  This multidisciplinary colloquium will discuss the different ways that languages and territories are linked, and will show the political, social and economic stakes that arise from the relationships between them. Above all, these terms refer to men and women with their social practices and representations, at the core of the logic of territoriality. New territories give rise to new language practices, which, in turn, create new spaces, discourse and meaning. The "boundaries" we draw between languages and territories are permeable in time and space, depending on factors such as population displacement, language policies, linguistic and social representations, education, mass media and socio-cultural values.

  The status of French-speaking journals around the world (1880-1980)

  Cette journée d’études est organisée dans le cadre du projet PERFROM (PERiodiques FRancophones Outre-Mer - XIXe-XXIesiècles) et vise à étudier plus particulièrement le statut des périodiques francophones publiés entre 1880 et 1980 dans le monde (hors territoire métropolitain français). Désormais loin d’être considérés comme de simples vecteurs d’actualité ou de divertissement, ces périodiques peuvent être envisagés comme un outil d’analyse pour comprendre les enjeux culturels, littéraires, sociaux ou politiques d’un pays : on cherchera à définir plus précisément leur place, dans les études littéraires en général, mais surtout dans la culture littéraire d’un pays - et dans ses rapports avec la métropole lorsqu’il s’agit d’une colonie.

  The Fate of Post-Mortem Personal Data

  Profiles compiled from scattered digital footprints left by the user on the Internet shape the outline of digital identities. While the Internet user is alive, he remains in charge of managing these identities, with the help of digital privacy law. Yet as civil rights befall the living, these data protection rights, as such, fall as his death occurs. This international workshop, organised in the frame of the ENEID research project on post-mortem digital identities, will bring together scholars from the field of Information and Communication sciences and from Legal studies, as well as experts working as Data Protection Officers or working for Data Protection Authorities, in order to take a closer look at the fate of personal data after death.
