    Violence toward women in Central and Eastern European countries. Zero tolerance

    Dans un contexte mondial de crise économique et financière, mais aussi politique et idéologique, force est de constater le ralentissement des progrès en faveur de l’égalité femme-homme et des droits fondamentaux des femmes et des filles, et parfois même leur remise en cause. Des avancées importantes ont été réalisées et les filles de même que les femmes accèdent de plus en plus à l’éducation et à l’emploi, aux services de santé et aux espaces de décisions. Pourtant, la majorité des femmes continuent de subir des discriminations dans tous les domaines : économique, politique et social. En dépit de nombreuses avancées juridiques, leurs droits ne sont pas toujours respectés. Les violences faites aux femmes et aux filles sont un fléau intolérable qui continue de toucher une femme sur sept dans le monde.

    Socialist Masculinities

    Men in Eastern Europe – Ruptures, Transformations, and Continuities in the 20th Century

    Our main objectives are to reconsider the state of the art and discuss new ways for writing a history of masculinities under socialism. The central questions of the workshop are: Which role were men and fathers to play in the construction of a “new” socialist family? How where masculinities transformed in socialist movements and state-socialist countries? The workshop is interested, on the one hand, in the ideologies and the utopian reflexions of the place of men in a future communist society. On the other hand, it aims at questioning the everyday life of socialist men and fathers, as well as the everyday life of men and fathers living under socialism.

    Repetition/s: Performance and Philosophy in Ljubljana

    Contemporary developments in the increasingly intertwined fields of philosophy and performance call for a renewed inquiry into the question of repetition. With its unique critique of ideology arising from a synthesis of German Idealism and Lacanian psychoanalysis, the Ljubljana School (Dolar, Zupančič, Žižek et al.) continues to furnish important theorisations of repetition and performance as they pertain to subjectivity and the political. One of the primary aims of “Repetition/s” will be to investigate and develop the usefulness of the Ljubljana School’s theorisations for the emerging field of Performance Philosophy.

    Family Policies and Gender Equality in Central and Eastern Europe

    L’ambition de ces journées d’étude est de rouvrir les débats sur un chantier de recherche encore peu approché sous l’angle comparatif : les politiques familiales et l’égalité de genre en Europe centrale et orientale. Plus précisément, il s’agit de replacer au cœur des débats épistémologiques et méthodologiques actuels la relation entre, d’une part, les mutations d’une intervention publique en matière de vie familiale qui privilégie de manière plus ou moins prononcée le principe d’égalité entre femmes et hommes et, d’autre part, les métamorphoses actuelles de l’institution familiale et des rapports sociaux de sexe dans les pays de l’Europe centrale et orientale.

    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.
