  Envisioning Latin America: Power and Representation in audiovisual (re)productions

  Forma Revista d'Estudis Comparatius. Art, Literatura, Pensament

  This issue seeks to critically address power structures in audiovisual (re)productions in and from Latin America and discuss how these play a role in the societal construction and representation of individual and collective identities, the ‘us’ and the ‘other’. By doing so, it aims at understanding how these representations – and broader discourses associated therewith – can be critically examined through media productions (cinema, television, radio, photography etc.) and their use as historical sources.

  Power and media, media power Insights on the Americas

  Insights on the Americas

  For its 11th issue, RITA proposes to interrogate the links between power and media in the Americas. Several areas of debate can be suggested, although they should not be considered as exclusive. Articles making a critical analysis of official media as well as opposition media, in varied historical and geographical contexts, will of course be welcome. Other articles may deal with the treatment of popular movements by the media. Critical reflections on the relationship between media and economic power are also encouraged. The Thema section can also include analysis of the current diversification of information media by focusing, for instance, on the emergence of “alternative” media on the Internet, or on the power of fake news over the construction of collective representations.

  L´équatorianité en question(s)

  Journée d´études organisée par le Centre d´études équatoriennes - Paris OUEST

  À l´occasion du bi-centenaire du « Primer grito de Independencia » du 10 août 1809, il nous semble opportun de revenir sur la notion d´équatorianité, de « ecuatorianidad », et de nous pencher sur les processus de construction de l´identité nationale équatorienne. Il s´agit de nous interroger sur la production et l´évolution du discours identitaire, du XIXe à nos jours, selon une approche pluri-disciplinaire, historique, littéraire, iconographique, linguistique, géographique ou encore sociologique.

  Nommer l'Amérique latine dans ses relations internationales, des indépendances à nos jours

  7-8-9 janvier 2010

  Nous proposons une réflexion pluridisciplinaire autour des dénominations de l'Amérique Latine indépendante, celles du sous-continent lui-même, mais aussi celles qui sont appliquées à ses relations internationales, dans les champs de la diplomatie politique et culturelle essentiellement, depuis le début du XIXe siècle jusqu'à nos jours.
