China has become Africa’s leading trading partner, with an increasing presence in economic, cultural, and educational sectors, sparking debates and international rivalries. However, African research on Sino-African relations remains underdeveloped, lacking real synergy and institutional support. The 2024 FOCAC emphasized the need for a coherent African strategy and knowledge ownership to ensure a balanced engagement with China. The study aims to analyze the challenges of developing and promoting Sino-African studies, identify obstacles and opportunities, and propose forward-looking strategies. It targets researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders involved in Sino-African cooperation. Articles (6,000 to 8,000 words) are expected by October 20, 2025, through the official website and will undergo a double-blind peer review process.

Ce séminaire constitue un lieu d’échanges sur les travaux actuels concernant les transferts culturels. À chaque séance, deux chercheurs sont invités pour présenter leurs recherches et débattre de leur approche. Le cadre intellectuel est celui de l’histoire et de l’épistémologie des sciences humaines, et le fil directeur des séances, méthodologique : il s’agit de repérer les vecteurs par lesquels s’opèrent les déplacements de contenus intellectuels et culturels ainsi que de questionner les processus de resémantisation qui accompagnent ces transformations. D’une séance à l’autre, les thématiques varient : ce choix est lié au souci de tester la pertinence de l’approche en termes de transferts culturels au-delà de la diversité des objets abordés et de nouer un dialogue entre les disciplines.

Is the expression of diverse perspectives for the development of knowledge still possible in academia?
Un des questionnements importants auquel fait face l’Université aujourd’hui est celui de la liberté académique. Depuis maintenant de nombreuses années, celle-ci fait l’objet de débats, qui ont abouti au Québec à la loi 32. Ce qui est en jeu est la liberté de pensée et de conscience, mais aussi la diversité des perspectives nécessaires à l’élaboration du savoir. En même temps, on constate de plus en plus que le traditionnel clivage entre la gauche et la droite, qui nous guidait dans notre compréhension du monde, ne correspond plus à des définitions claires de ces courants politiques. On y retrouve d’un côté comme de l’autre : polarisation, autocensure et censure. Quel est leur impact sur l’élaboration universitaire du savoir ?

Conference, symposium - Prehistory and Antiquity
Bone objects during the Roman and Early Byzantine periods
Colloquia Anatolica et Aegaea, congressus internationales Smyrnenses XV
Ancient bone objects have been found in relatively large quantities in the entire Mediterranean, from Spain to Syria and Egypt to France, where they were manufactured between the Neolithic and Medieval periods. The art of carving animal bones involves especially antler and horn. However, the spectrum of the worked bone objects recovered from Anatolia, rest of the eastern Mediterranean, Near East, the Black Sea area and Balkans is very varied, and reflects different characteristics of Graeco-Roman and Early Byzantine daily life. In these areas they were also utilised as grave goods secondarily. They were exported or imported over the entire ancient Graeco-Roman and Early Byzantine worlds. In this conference papers dealing with ancient artefacts or objects manufactured by bone, antler, ivory, animal teeth, mother of pearl and cockleshell are included. Focus will be on bone objects between the first century B.C. and the sixth century A.D.

This symposium offers an exploration of the many facets of color, intimately linked to diverse conceptions of spatialities/spaces. Through a series of presentations, we aim to highlight the complex relationship between the color studied and the space considered, by examining how these concepts influence and transform each other. The expected contributions define how color shapes our perception of space, and how space influences our experience of color, offering a situated view of color.

Conference, symposium - History
For a world history of the circus from Antiquity to the present day
For the past twenty years or so, the history of the circus has benefited from an undeniable scientific dynamism. While the circus is essentially an international art form, until now its history has mainly been written from a national perspective. The aim of this conference is to decompartmentalise these historiographies by inviting researchers in history and, more broadly, in the arts and the social sciences (performing arts, art history, sociology, anthropology, etc.), as well as those involved in the artistic and cultural world, to combine their approaches.

The social mechanisms as seen through the lens of social networks
Volume 76 / 2026 - Issue 1
L’Année sociologique is inviting contributions for an issue on the theme of social mechanisms as seen through the lens of social networks, to be published in the Spring of 2026. The aim of this call for papers is to take stock of the use of social network analysis in understanding various social mechanisms in all their diversity, particularly collective ones, and their consequences, whether intentional or not, by bringing into dialogue and articulating the micro, meso and macro levels. It thus focuses on the impact of relational infrastructures on social mechanisms in the broadest sense, and aims to give visibility to research that sheds new light on the subject.

African Sovereignty, Contentious Foreign Policy and 'Unidplomatic' practices
Panel of the European Conference on African Studies (ECAS) 2025
In recent years, accredited representatives and international organisations officials found themselves in the middle of intense diplomatic clashes in African contexts. The recent shift in geopolitical alliances in the Sahel area, for instance, has displayed dramatic cases, with top diplomats (foreign ambassadors, UN heads of mission, and even African Union top leaders) being denied visits, or declared persona non grata, or even expelled, sometimes manu militari. Similar cases occurred in 2021 in the midst of the war in Tigray, Ethiopia. In other instances, national authorities erect administrative impediments aimed at hindering foreign diplomats’ day-to-day activity. These few examples of diplomatic clashes were politically justified by competent authorities in the name of sovereignty in contexts of rapidly changing international partnerships. The purpose of our panel is to identify and examine the diplomatic practices by which official representatives of African states contest the international order and seek to enact sovereignty towards their external environment.

Call for papers - Urban studies
Dans sa définition la plus étendue, la voirie désigne l’ensemble des voies de circulation des personnes et des fluides terrestres (routes et chemins de fer), fluviales, maritimes et même aériennes, sans oublier l’acception ancienne de lieu où étaient portées les ordures. La « voirie » et la « rue » sont des descripteurs toujours utilisés au singulier, ce qui masque la réalité des réseaux qu’elles constituent, des îlots qu’elles bordent. Le réseau viaire est un réseau de voies hiérarchisées qui croise et se superpose à d’autres réseaux de communication, d’alimentation ou d’évacuation, voire en constitue la matrice : réseaux d’alimentation (eau, gaz, électricité), d’évacuation (égouts) ou de service (téléphone, pneumatique et numérique). Sans prétendre à l’exhaustivité, ce numéro de la revue In Situ souhaite présenter un état de la recherche qui pourrait contribuer à sensibiliser praticiens et décideurs, élus comme aménageurs.

Seminar - Epistemology and methodology
40 Years Anniversary of the Seminar
The transnational research seminar consists of lectures by invited international scholars dedicated to the study of cultural transfers in very different regions. The central theme of the various sessions is the question of the vectors that explain and promote the various shifts in intellectual content in space and time, as well as the resemantizations that necessarily go hand in hand with these shifts. The topics dealt with are deliberately diverse in order to facilitate contacts between the disciplines and methodological discussions. A common theme is the history and epistemology of the human sciences with a focus on questions of spatialization in historiographical constructions.

Improving the quality of working life
“Laboreal”, July 2025 edition
Over the last twenty years, there has been a proliferation of research and interventions whose purpose, in contrast to the strict profitability objective of ‘quality circles’, focuses on the quality of working life. They have often been designated by the acronym QWL. This designation authorizes a wide range of methodologies and actions and there have been proposals structured considering diagnoses and interventions that were based on the workers’ point of view and on what happens in reality at work situations. In these approaches, the tradition of activity ergonomics and work psychology once again demonstrate the wealth of methodological tools and intervention models. Laboreal invites researchers to present studies addressing this issue, in particular those that present detailed field experiences.
