  Televising the socialist body

  Projections of health and welfare on the socialist and post-socialist screen

  Bodies and health on television have not been extensively researched, in particular in the socialist and transition to market-economy contexts.The conference seeks to analyse how television and its evolving formats –contemporary, similar and yet differing in national broadcast contexts– expressed and staged bodies and health from local, regional, national and international perspectives. The conference seeks to better understand the role that TV, as a modern visual mass media, has played in what may be cast as the transition from a national bio-political public health paradigm at the beginning of the twentieth century, to alternative societal forms of the late twentieth century when (supposedly) “better” and “healthier” lives were increasingly shaped by market forces.

  The challenges and experiences of Brazilian and French researchers

  L’objectif principal de cette table ronde est de créer un espace de discussion et d’échange d’expériences entre brésilien.ne.s qui font des recherches en France et français.e.s qui font des recherches dans l’Amérique Latine, en ouvrant un débat interdisciplinaire qui s’interroge notamment sur la question des frontières. Des frontières géographiques, parce qu’il s'agit de pays et continents différents ; des frontières académiques, en proposant une réflexion sur les obstacles (in)visibles entre les sciences humaines, sociales et exactes (et ainsi entre les différentes disciplines au sein de chaque domaine) et des frontières humaines, en espérant que les expériences interpersonnelles partagées entre les chercheur.e.s les enrichiront individuellement et collectivement.
