    Puppets on screen

    In this symposium project, puppets are considered through their tangible links with a manipulator who could be visible, hidden by a classical stage device (curtain, base...) or acting off-camera, “between the frames” (stop motion). It excludes, at first glance, the 3D modeled figurines, even if they often are mentioned as “puppets”. These creatures, made of foam, wood, paper, and who can be realistic or abstract, are considered through a media existence (television, cinema, web) which has enriched the subgenres of post-war fiction, deals with subjects that could not be filmed in real capture, or offers the opportunity to experiment a great variety of tones and points of view in video practice, without geographical or temporal restrictions. Thus, the symposium will provide the opportunity to explore fields on the margins of research as well as to present the current knowledge on the topic, eventually opening new perspectives in the studies.

    Contemporary Amman and the Right to the City

    A city of four million inhabitants today, Amman’s expansion has become disproportionate to its urban history. Amman has experienced an impressive urban growth over the past fifty years, driven by forced migration and market laws. Developing from a small rural settlement at the end of the 19th century, Amman evolved into a regional crossroad at the end of the 20th century, and has become today a symbol for the consolidation of Hashemite rule, and as a result, the site of its contestation. Amman’s exceptional position among other regional capitals and its recent urban history has forced its inhabitants to create narratives concerning the city’s foundation, invent urban traditions, and negotiate ways of socialization.

    Circulations, frontières et encadrement des flux migratoires au Moyen-Orient

    L’Institut français du Proche-Orient organise un colloque à Amman les 29 et 30 mai 2014 sur la thématique des circulations humaines dans la région du Moyen-Orient (Turquie, Iran, Proche-Orient, Golfe). L’objectif est de réfléchir à la manière dont s’articulent les flux de circulation avec les contextes conflictuels qui caractérisent l’espace régional et la manière dont les différents États tentent de s’adapter à ces flux et de les encadrer. Dans un contexte de crise, les transformations spatiales des espaces frontaliers, des villes d’accueil, des zones où séjournent et se regroupent migrants et réfugiés seront au centre de ce colloque. De plus, le contexte socio-historique où des flux de migrants, de marchands, de pèlerins ou de réfugiés participent, depuis fort longtemps déjà, aux recompositions socio-spatiales de lieux qui servent de transit et d’accueil à ces populations mobiles, sera abordé pour questionner les flux actuels.

    Les camps de réfugiés palestiniens en Jordanie

    A Lasting Temporariness: Population, Space and Social Practices, 1990-2010

    This one day workshop will focus on the social and spatial organization of the camps, the social practices of their inhabitants, and the influences, interpretations and effects of what we call a lasting temporariness on the Palestinian refugee camps in Jordan. Due to their significance and status, the camps represent key social spaces for exploring patterns of interaction between different religious groups and national minorities, for examining governance, for studying development and planning issues (infrastructure and services), for mapping the constitution of territories and identities, and for analyzing the development of an intricate network of economic and political connections inside and outside of their spaces.
