  Living in the Aftermath. Catastrophes in South Asia and the Himalayas

  In 2024, the Centre for South Asian and Himalayan Studies (Centre d'études sud-asiatiques et himalayennes, CNRS/EHESS) is organizing an international conference open to all disciplines in the social sciences and humanities on the topic of the aftermath of catastrophes in South Asia and the Himalayas. The theme of this conference is in keeping with recent, global-scale and transdisciplinary reflections on the way the modern world thinks about and deals with disasters and the unexpected, be they ecological, technological or health-related, whether they are collective or individual.

  Problematizing Migration: Mobility and Vulnerablization in an Age of Abandonment and Inequalities

  The conference analyzes the entanglement of official classifications and life-as-lived in the context of migration and human mobility. What happens to practices, poetics, and grammars of migration at points of encounter between state and non-state relations? Authors across disciplines and those outside of academic institutions (eg, but not limited to: activists, artists, etc.) are encouraged to submit and the organizers are committed to hosting work that contends with the topic across multiple modalities and methods.

  Beyond Search: Opening Up Audiovisual Content for Humanities Studies

  In recent years, audiovisual content, with its growing accessibility, rich hidden meanings, and complexity in modality, became a new frontier for research in humanities and computational domains. The quest for properly and meaningfully opening up the variety of information (such as historical, social, affective, and aesthetic) available in the ever-increasing audiovisual materials requires a collective effort from both sides to co-create not only new methods but also new research questions. This 2-day workshop, covering both the theoretical and practical aspects of processing and utilising audiovisual data, provides an entry point and a test field for researchers working on digital humanities, audiovisual content understanding, and HCI to formulate and validate new ideas.

  Penser la matière dans un livre d’artistes modeste

  Le livre, dans toutes ses variations et ses transformations, occupe une place centrale dans presque toutes les cultures : par quels chemins peut-il rejoindre aujourd’hui les expériences de l’art ? Nous proposons un défi : penser la matérialité du livre dans un livre ordinaire comme un champ expérimental de l’art. C’est une invitation à repenser la conception de l’œuvre d’art total sous le régime matériel de sobriété, de soustraction et d’écologie.

  Classicamente - Sienese Dialogues on the Ancient World

  The PhD alumni and students of the Anthropology of the Ancient World curriculum of the PhD course in Classics  and Archaeology would like to promote a sixth cycle of seminars of the series Classicamente. Dialoghi senesi sul mondo antico. The sessions which will take place in the 2023/2024 academic year shall continue focusing on the different methodologies and research perspectives which have shaped anthropology of the ancient world as field of study ever since its first development (with the works of Gernet, Vernant and Detienne). Space will also be given to those innovative approaches that constantly contribute to the hermeneutical expansion of this particular field of study. This year’s series of seminars wishes to create a meeting point for scholarship on antiquity and contemporary debate on its reception in modern societies, underlining the cultural, social and ideological aspects which spark from the interaction between present and past.

  Les femmes sur scène : Des coulisses aux feux de la rampe

  Women in theatre until the 19th century

  Since its origin, the History of Theatre has been built by male names. However, it is unthinkable that women have not also had an important role in this construction. Besides existing as characters, their contributions as performers, playwrights, composers, entrepreneurs, patrons, scenographers or costume designers, among a broad range of other functions, were fundamental to the development of the theatrical practice. This conference aims to recover the place of women in theatre since its origin until the 19^th century, covering a wide variety of topics, which have women at their centre, either as the focus of a show or as marginal, as star or tertiary figure, as part of the audience or as producer of the cultural object. The conference aims to provide a comprehensive and transdisciplinary debate in order to rediscover the place of women in theatre in a global and historical approach.

  Approches plurielles au « dividuel » : politique, espace, corps, numérique

  Les journées d’étude Approches plurielles au « dividuel » : politique, espace, corps, numérique sont un projet hybride et transdisciplinaire. Elles partent du constat que, parmi les éléments de la modernité se trouvant en crise dans le monde contemporain, il est nécessaire de consacrer la juste attention philosophique à la notion d’individu et à ses transformations radicales. Face à cette crise, nous proposons d’explorer les interprétations et implications multiples qui émergent de la notion de « dividuel ».

  New Monuments

  Iconoclasm, Reenactments, and Alternative Commemorations in the United States since 2000

  As demonstrated by Wendy Bellion’s scholarship, iconoclasm lies at the foundation of the United States. Yet Bellion also shows us that, rather than being sealed in the past, iconoclastic projects continue into the present. Iconoclastic destruction invariably entails creation—whether it is the construction of new monuments to replace the toppled ones, or the coalescence of a new community, movement, or nation. This conference seeks to bring together scholars interested in monuments and their destruction, public history and public art, historical reenactments, memory studies, and artistic practices across diverse media. We invite papers that evaluate recent commemorative projects, examine acts of iconoclasm and their aftermath, and study or propose novel approaches to representing historic events.

  Democratic Representation in and by International Organizations

  Les organisations internationales (OI) jouent un rôle central dans l’élaboration du droit international contemporain. Pourtant, la question de la représentation démocratique par les États membres et/ou les nombreuses autres institutions ou personnes publiques ou privées qui participent aux procédures de délibération et/ou de décision au sein des OI demeure redoutablement difficile. C’est encore davantage le cas de la représentation démocratique par les OI lorsque ces organisations deviennent membres d’autres OI ou interviennent en tant que participantes à part entière au sein d’autres processus multilatéraux d’élaboration du droit international.

  The Agency of Plants in the Literature and the Arts of the French and English-Speaking Worlds (19th-21st century)

  Puissances du végéter dans la littérature et les arts des mondes francophones et anglophones (XIXe-XXIe siècle)

  The aim of this international conference is to reflect on the active role of plants in texts and visual representations in the literature and arts of the anglophone and the francophone worlds from the nineteenth century to the present day. We will think about the aesthetic, political, and epistemological implications of this form of agency and analyse the way in which plants act upon and with the human world from an anthrodecentric perspective. We will look at how plants can organise or disorganise our world, call into question established truths, and shape power relations, including political ones.

  Lessons of the Cold War?

  Visegrad Scholarship at the Open Society Archives

  We invite historians, researchers, political scientists, sociologists, and socially engaged artists to reflect on the Lessons from the Cold War by taking cues from the Blinken Open Society Archives (OSA) collections. The applicants are encouraged to reflect on the connections as well as on the differences between current times and the past by following some recommended sub-topics. The current call is part of a reflexive-research program at OSA interested in connecting past issues related to oppressive regimes, censorship, violence and information manipulation to current phenomena. We would like to assess the potential of a genealogical project linking the contemporary epistemic and political crisis of democracy to past modes of inquiry and activism.

  Territories, communities and sustainability: views from Southern Europe

  The theme “Territories, communities and sustainability : views from Southern Europe” is a challenging approach to study the links between different areas of knowledge, inviting interdisciplinary outlooks to sociologists and other social scientists interested in environment, development and educational issues. This can be a particularly relevant reflection in the post-pandemic phase of current times, highlighting regional and local features of a global experience. It allows comparing Southern European societies, between themselves but also with other European (and non-European) societies, and therefore, providing insights to better understand each geographic and cultural area.

  The Armenian Genocide: New Interpretations and Cross-Disciplinary Conversations

  The study of the Armenian genocide often remains confined to restricted circles of specialists and interdisciplinarity is too rarely promoted. And, although comparative research is praised, it is frequently reduced to the juxtaposition of case studies. Research on the Armenian genocide is now ready to address more cross-cutting issues and to fully contribute to broader discussions on mass violence. Therefore, this conference asks: how can the social sciences, memory studies, and genocide studies contribute to a broader understanding of the Armenian genocide and its aftermath? And reciprocally: what is the contribution of research on the Armenian genocide to our understanding of mass crimes and to the social sciences?

  Governing through counter-terrorism in the Arab World

  Production, circulation and (mis)uses of counter-terrorism policies from the Maghreb to the Gulf

  Since September 11, 2001, the fight against terrorism has been at the heart of global governance. The ambition of this conference is to bring historical and sociological dimensions back into the debate on counter-terrorism by critically assessing the circulation and reappropriation of counter-terrorism measures, discourses and practices. Panels will focus on the different narratives produced by governments, the media and experts, and their practices. The conference will facilitate the emergence of comparative perspectives by looking at similar practices in Western contexts and also in China.
