The long history of the masculinisation of womenswear

Journée d’étude Tailoring Identities

Cette journée d’étude a pour objectif de revenir sur la transformation du vestiaire féminin du XV^e au XX^e siècle lorsqu’il emprunte à différents ressorts de mode masculine, ainsi que sur les pratiques de cross-dressing. Elle entend analyser comment l’art des tailleurs a accompagné la définition progressive d’une silhouette s’éloignant des apparences de la féminité normative, et examiner comment les emprunts au vestiaire masculin ont permis à des personnes en dissidence avec les normes de genre d’exprimer indépendance, résistance ou appartenance – de manière visible ou (quasiment) invisible. En se penchant sur l’intersection entre mode et identité(s), elle espère la variété des manières par lesquelles le vêtement a permis les expressions individuelles, mais aussi combien il a été, au-delà d’elles, un moyen de résistance et de négociation des normes sociales.

The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension

1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium

The 1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium ‘The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension’ aims to reflect on issues of insularity and archipelagos in the conception of today's world, marked by environmental crises, new trends in human development and reinterpretations of place and its dynamics. Thinking about islands and archipelagos, in all their trans- and inter-material dimensions, equivalences and disparities, influences the conception not only of these discontinued worlds from their continental matrix (in some cases), but also of territories which are assumed to be outside the continent, with ontic possibilities of a truly archipelagic context.

The Challenges of the United Nations (UN) in the light of its 80th Anniversary

Critical Reflections and Perspectives

Every ten years, the United Nations celebrates the anniversary of its creation. Each time it is an opportunity to adapt the Organization to the world around it. In 1995, the Secretary-General saw in the fiftieth anniversary the opportunity for a transition de la vieille à la nouvelle ONU. A similar ambition guided the Millennium Summit in 2005, during which it was a question of “using imagination to strengthen [the] structures”, as Kofi Annan, then Secretary-General, pointed out. What about twenty years later?

Anti-colonial solidarities: Navigating literary coresistance

The aim of this conference is to initiate a collective reflection on the relationships that, through literature, forge active resistance to colonial structures. How can the practices that develop around literature (writing, co-writing, rewriting, theoretical studies, translations) constitute spaces of coresistance and solidarity?

Appropriating international spaces and professions

European women and feminists in the 20th century

The workshop focuses on the intersections between the history of international relations, European studies and women's and gender history. Since the early 21^st century, historiography on international relations and European integration has undergone profound transformations, enabling the integration of a gender perspective. However, writing a history of European and international relations from a female perspective and integrating a gender perspective into these scientific fields remains a challenge. Therefore, the aim of this workshop is to take stock of approaches at the crossroads of the study of international relations, European integration, gender and feminism. It will provide a forum for debate on recent empirical work and work in progress.

Brian De Palma : la politique des images

In 2025, the US filmmaker Brian De Palma will turn 85. To celebrate this New Hollywood pioneer and his impressive body of work (30 feature-length fiction films, not counting ongoing projects, documentaries and shorts), this symposium will look at the director's filmography primarily through political and aesthetic approaches, aiming to offer a fresh perspective on a much-studied filmography. It will also be an opportunity to look at his lesser-known works.

Radicalism(s) and Social Resilience

Youth Confronted with Uncertainty

L’objectif de ce séminaire international est de stimuler la réflexion interdisciplinaire autour de la question des radicalités des jeunes, dans ses différentes formes et à travers des approches aussi diverses que possible. C’est aussi une invitation à dépasser la dichotomie entre l’approche macrosociologique centrée sur le « pourquoi » et l’approche microsociologique subjective et processuelle séduite par « le comment ». Dépassement à même, estimons-nous, d’appréhender la question des radicalités dans sa complexité mêlant l’histoire de l’individu, de l’institution et du contexte. A cet égard, il importe de comprendre les sens, que donnent les jeunes à leurs engagements dans chacune des causes ou des pensées radicales, sens qui ne cessent de gagner en visibilité partout dans le monde (montée du néonazisme, de l’extrême droite, des mouvements régionalistes, etc.).

Endogenous Knowledge, Education and Development in Cameroon

This call emphasizes that endogenous knowledge is dynamic and offers valuable contributions to health, education, economics, and social structures resulting in development; and also argues for comprehensive curricular reform, teacher training, and the institutionalization of traditional knowledge to create a more equitable, relevant, and effective education system in Cameroon. This call for papers therefore, encourages researchers and stakeholders to explore how endogenous knowledge can create a more equitable, relevant, and effective educational framework for Cameroon's development.

African Arts during the Second World War: Spoliations, Destructions, Displacements

The contemporary focus on African cultural property looted during the colonial period has served to shift the focus back to African artefacts as central to the historical issues of the twentieth century. However, the question remains as to whether this assertion extends to the Second World War period. In the context of contemporary research into objects from colonial contexts and those looted between 1933 and 1945, the fate of African works during this period remains an unresearched subject. This study day will shed light for the first time on the multiple consequences of the war on African art, including its commercialisation, movement and disappearance, both in Africa itself and in Europe.

Réactualisation des matériaux et savoir-faire préindustriels

Perspectives historiques

Faced with today's environmental and climatic challenges, architectural production needs to embrace a shift towards frugality, in particular through the use of bio- and geo-sourced materials. In this respect, pre-industrial knowledge and know-how can be particularly inspiring. The aim of this study day is to understand how to design, build and rehabilitate using ancient techniques. The aim is to examine gestures and know-how in relation to so-called traditional building materials. This one-day event will call on researchers to shed scientific light on these essential questions, so as to avoid falling into the irenic trap of a return to our roots, without misrepresenting them or greenwashing them. Adopting a historical perspective could be a way of avoiding this pitfall, contextualizing it and initiating a debate with the practitioners and future practitioners of tomorrow's architecture. This study day is aimed at students, teachers, researchers and anyone interested in learning more about these subjects. The aim is to develop an accurate awareness of materials and know-how.
