Epizootics in the German South-West

Interpretations, Control and Effects from the Late Middle Ages to the Modern Age

Animal diseases are among the most drastic episodes of human existence. It is therefore no surprise that people have been dealing with the phenomenon of animal diseases for centuries. These individual and collective measures become tangible in various sources, such as economic documents like accounts, regulations, court records and visitation reports, but also in narrative texts such as annals and chronicles, in literary and artistic works or in textbooks and advice literature. Due to this wide variety of sources, the conference aims to analyse animal epidemics from several perspectives. The possible fields of research are not limited to veterinary medicine or economic and agricultural history.

Articuler les traditions politico-intellectuelles de l’écoféminisme français et allemand dans une perspective globale

In light of the ecological crisis ecofeminist thought that first emerged as political-ethical and theoretical field during the late 1970s and 1980s has flourished in French and German debates during the last decade. The aim of the conference is to examine the ways in which ecofeminist theory is currently discussed in France and Germany, and how – in both national contexts – the respective traditions of ecofeminist thought and politics are re-articulated, criticized and transformed. Thereby the question how post- and neo-colonial power relations that shape the current ecological situation are addressed in ecofeminist thought will be of central importance. The conference seeks to re-evaluate traditions of ecofeminist thought in French and German speaking contexts, their uneven circulation and their present-day re-articulations.

Prisons and Prisoners in the History and Sociology of Knowledge (17th-20th century)

The history of prisons is “a history of constant reform.” Since at least the beginning of the eighteenth century, these repeated transformations (desired or achieved) (Morris, Rothman, 1995, vii) have been accompanied by the production of knowledge about architecture, physical constraints on the body, gender segregation, violence, sexual practices, proximity or, conversely, “punitive” or “redemptive” isolation. Yet very little research has focused specifically on this knowledge and even less, if any, has attempted to integrate it into the history of knowledge in general, and more specifically into the history of (social) science and statistics. Against the background of this research gap, this conference proposes to take knowledge about prisons and prisoners as an object of study. Our general question is: how did prisons and prisoners contribute to the history and sociology of knowledge and science?

Stay or Leave? Family survival tactics during the age of emigrations

1770-1830s

During the Age of Revolutions (c. 1770-1830), Europe and the Americas were convulsed by a wave of interrelated political upheavals, social protests, slave rebellions, and wars. Republican alternatives to monarchies proliferated, even as colonial wars and abolitionist insurrections shook even the most entrenched empires. As a result, hundreds of thousands of people found themselves displaced and dispersed across the Atlantic world. While some chose to leave out of political or religious principle, others were forced out by some combination of ideological persecution, economic dislocation, and armed conflict. Wherever they ended up, the uprooted were forced to negotiate foreign and often hostile cultures and asylum practices. Drawing together historians and scholars of the literary, visual, and musical arts, this workshop aims to shed light on the least-visible members of these diasporas —women, children and servants— and to develop interdisciplinary perspectives on familial constellations of exile.

Symposium on Intellectual History and Legal History (INTELLEX)

The conference aims to gather scholars working on legal history or other aspects related to the teaching of legal disciplines in a historical context in order to contribute to an intellectual history of this discipline. Although the conference focuses on identifying the intellectual contexts in which legal history developed, social aspects are also considered, since ideas do not exist independently of people. The social aspects could be, for instance, teachers and students at universities, royal academies, or other institutions disseminating knowledge.

Late Medieval Cardinals Between Crises

From the Western Schism to the V Lateran Council (1378-1517)

The history of the cardinalate, which stretches from the 11th century to the present day, went through one of the most volatile phases of its development between the beginning of the Western Schism (1378) and the close of the Fifth Lateran Council (1517). This congress aims to work and reflect on these cardinals, both as a group, gathered in the Sacred College, and in their individual dimensions, as lords, members of lineages, pastors, reformers, conciliarists, centres of courts, families and networks, diplomats and representatives of nations, patrons of the arts, among others. The cross-sectional interest of this congress stems from the desire to feed the historiographical renewal that has been taking place over the last two decades on the medieval cardinalate, seeking to bring together researchers who are dedicated to its study, regardless of the angle of approach they may take.

The Contrasting Effects of Digitalisation and Artifical Intelligence (AI) on Professional Activities

ISA (International Sociological Association) 5th Forum of Sociology

This session examines the effects of digitisation and artificial intelligence (AI) on professional activities. Based on surveys, the papers present these contrasting effects on different professions. The aim is to identify the automation of work processes, to understand to what extent and how AI is making it possible to save time and increase reliability, but also to compete with established professional skills, promising productivity gains while threatening to deskill and disintermediate professionals.

Defining what is right

Politics of demarcation and the radical right in post-war Europe

Discrimination – in its literal sense of drawing distinctions – is at the core of right-wing politics. The demarcation of people along imagined and uneven, hierarchical lines may be its key feature, yet one particular demarcation has so far escaped scholarly attention: The inner right’s self-definition, not as a nation, race, or Volk, but as a political movement and a coherent political thought, and its answer to the question of who is part of it and who is not. This process, though largely overlooked, can be seen as a particularly fraught one – at least for the right-wing movements of post-war Europe, which were not only faced with the tasks of shedding the devastating legacy of fascism, rearranging ideological fragments, and creating new self-attributions, agendas, and alliances. They also did so under the watchful eye of post-war societies and institutional actors, who themselves had strong motivations for defining what is (radically) right.

Imperial Domesticities, 18th-20th Centuries

In recent decades, the study of imperial domesticities has undergone significant renewal and has attracted increasing attention. Whether servile or not, domestic work, performed daily within the intimate family framework of the home, is a fertile ground for observing the racial, social, and gender dynamics that develop in imperial territories. Numerous studies have shown that the colonial household and the domestic service relationship, far from being anecdotal, are crucial for understanding how relations of domination are forged, reformulated, and contested within colonial societies (Stoler, 2002). This conference aims to build on these studies.

Caring, Taking Care

What do “caring” and “taking care of” mean? To what extent are “caring” and “taking care of” similar or different from a theoretical and practical point of view? In which contexts are they situated and to what extent do they depend on other contexts? In this conference, we will consider questions about “caring” and “taking caring of” – possibly connecting or differentiating them – in a broad sense, by opening a dialogue about their definitions in different disciplines and subjects, on their roles in various contexts with both humans and non-human actors, and on the way in which “caring” and “taking caring of” establish relationships with other features that define existence, the ordinary and the extraordinary facts of living.
