  Territories and identities in Africa

  The imagination of space, dynamics of development and socio-spatial tensions

  Cet appel à contribution met en scène l'attelage de deux concepts clés : identités et territoires,  comme question centrale de la construction intellectuelle et socio-politique du monde contemporain. Deux objectifs majeurs sont retenus. Il s'agit tout d'abord de comprendre dans quelle mesure le couple identités et territoires peut être retenu comme levier ou tremplin de dévelopement en Afrique. Il est ensuite question d'analyser dans quelle mesure la rencontre entre identités et territoires peut prendre un tournant controversé susceptible de féconder une réflexion autour du rapport territoires, pluralités et vivre ensemble, une des piste qu'il convient d'envisager pour transcender les perspectives identitaires et les dérives communautaires associées.

  Ideas in movement: the role of conflict and commerce in the history of navigation

  Following successful meetings in 2010 and 2012, Royal Museums Greenwich and the Royal Institute of Navigation are planning a third symposium to bring together current research in the history of navigation. 2014 sees the centenary of the beginning of the First World War. While this conflict provided a powerful stimulus for research and development in navigation, technological developments have also sprung from users and from commercial imperatives.

  The worlds of game - RESET journal

  Revue RESET

  This issue of the journal RESET offers to reverse the currently dominant scientific perspective, to study traditional game forms, their audiences, their content, their methods, in the Internet age. The challenge of this issue is to analyze online gaming in its social, historical and cultural dimensions. Without abandoning the most "famous" games, special attention will be given to games that could be described as "marginal", not in terms of audiences, but in terms of scientific publications devoted to them.Emphasis will be placed on the diversity of players and the many ways of appropriating playing styles, rather than the range of games.
