    Europeanisations from the Bottom and from the Margins

    Actors, Representations, and Experiences (late 19th-early 21st centuries)

    Ce colloque international poursuit l’ambition de prolonger les réflexions sur les européanisations en réunissant des contributions mobilisant principalement deux approches : l’histoire par le bas et par les marges. L’histoire par le bas vise à encourager une étude de la notion d’Europe au-delà d’un phénomène géopolitique mettant en scène des institutions étatiques et paraétatiques, mais plus largement comme un espace social, politique, culturel et économique en construction et un cadre de référence touchant tous les acteurs et actrices de la société. À cette histoire par le bas s’ajoute la notion des marges de l’Europe, ici principalement envisagées comme des marges temporelles et géographiques. Nous nous intéresserons donc aux mécanismes à l’œuvre sur le temps long (XIXe et XXe siècles) et en particulier dans des pays ou régions à la périphérie de l’Union européenne, jusqu’alors peu considérés dans l’étude de la construction européenne, à l’image de la Suisse, de la Finlande, des pays balkaniques et de l’Ukraine.

    Health and Nature

    Thematic issue of the journal “Histoire, médecine et santé”

    This thematic issue of the journal Histoire, médecine et santé examines the various uses of and relations to nature in the field of health. Inspired by the multidisciplinary issues raised by the current climate and biodiversity crises, this thematic issue follows recent academic initiatives in interrogating the various conceptions of nature and their effects in a number of cultural fields (urban planning, artistic production, etc.). It seeks to explore the ways in which these representations, rooted in both ontologies and marketing issues, constrain and transform the medical uses of natural elements and spaces. The issue is open to proposals from a wide range of historical and geographical contexts that could help broaden our understanding of the naturalness of the elements and products in question.

    Gaetano Salvemini (1873-1957) and France

    The conference intends to propose an overall re-examination of Salvemini's relations with France, starting with those matured with some historians during the drafting phase of his volume on the French Revolution (1905, subsequently reissued several times with variants), passing through his relations with some important intellectuals and those gravitating around the figure of his second wife Fernande Dauriac, arriving at those with the world of Italian and European antifascist exile. Vast and significant, even if not always marked by sympathy and harmony of ideas, appear, moreover, the relations with exponents of the labor movement and with various personalities of the French socialist world. A separate chapter is, finally, represented by relations with the Giustizia e Libertà movement.

    Endogenous Knowledge in Focus

    Senegalese Journal of Information Sciences

    For many years, the promotion of endogenous knowledge has been a recurring theme in discussions between academics and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The significant contribution of this heritage to science seems to have been systematically neglected. These considerations are not new in the light of the history that shapes them, especially since these knowledge systems give rise to various epistemological, social, political and media considerations. This call for contributions aligns with the philosophical concerns of Valentin Yves Mudimbe, advocating for the construction of an “indigenous science” that seeks to understand African socio-cultural realities by reinventing Africa.

    European war ruins and their uses (19th-21st century)

    Today, the terrible sight of the destruction in Ukraine awakens memories throughout Europe of the war landscapes of earlier conflicts, from the Napoleonic Wars to the war in former Yugoslavia. The aim of the conference is to explore the relationship that post-war societies have with the vestiges of conflict and the marks of war violence. Through the political, social, economic, cultural and memorial uses of these particular vestiges, the relationship with a traumatic past will be explored.

    Agriculture, food and crises: challenges, strategies and innovations

    Revue « Études caribéennes »

    The populations of Small Island Developing States (SIDS), much more than those of other continental countries, are facing crises of different natures which threaten their ability to meet their basic food needs much more than other continental countries. In the intention to resolve these problems, several national and international actors have tried to combine their efforts in order to intervene, through different programs and projects, aimed at acting on the food and agricultural systems. These actions, as desirable as they may be, are not without undesirable costs for the environment. Some of these costs are detrimental to the sustainability of these systems. Thus, scientific and even philosophical reflections are necessary to address these questions.

    For a History of University Settings in Quebec (19th-20th centuries)

    This call for papers is a continuation of the panel “Un renouveau de l’histoire des milieux universitaires au Québec ? Trajectoires inédites et mobilisations des savoirs”, which was organised as part of the annual conference of the Institut d’histoire de l’Amérique française. The call is for a thematic issue to be published in Revue d’histoire de l’éducation / Historical Studies in Education in spring 2025. It aims at bringing together current research on the history of universities (French- and English-speaking) in Quebec in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in order to connect different approaches and objects, while also demonstrating the relevance of considering universities as orbital centres, both practically and heuristically, for future research.

    Visual Ecologies: Image experiences and lives in the age of Capitalocene

    While “ecology” refers in a general sense to the science that studies the relationships of living beings with each other and with their environment, it is also used more locally and transitively to qualify the study of a specific environment. Similarly, while visual ecology can be broadly understood as a relational study of the visual field, it also seems possible to imagine more singular visual ecologies, localized around a particular imagery (colonial studies, gender studies, femenism studies, ethnic studies, etc.). As such, images are no longer just representations, they are both environments and entities that can be transformed and transformed, forms of action that are part of a pragmatic experience of the world. The ecology of images, images of ecology, the ecological impact of images… the hypothesis formulated for this international colloquium is to think together these major directions between, on the one hand, the question of images and their circulation, and on the other, our climatic and environmental situation.

    Fifth Joseph Déchelette European Archaeology Prize

    The internationally renowned archaeologist Joseph Déchelette (1862-1914) was one of the founders of European protohistoric archaeology. The Association Joseph Déchelette, founded in 2010 by his great nephew Édouard Déchelette(†), would like to keep the memory of this great scholar alive and promote this discipline. It has therefore teamed up with various partners to establish the Prix Joseph Déchelette with a view to promoting the PhD research of a young archaeologist. This prize, created in 2016, is intended to be awarded every two years. The research that is the subject of the thesis must concern European protohistory, understood in a broad sense, both geographically and chronologically (Bronze age, Iron Age and Romanization). The jury will pay particular attention to the European dimension of the applications.

    Interracial Intimacies in France and the French Empire

    “French Politics, Culture, and Society” Journal

    For more than two decades, scholars have shown how such ostensibly private practices have always been matters of state, with interracial intimacy buttressing, challenging, and even redefining broader social, political, economic, and cultural concerns. French Politics, Culture, and Society seeks contributions to a special issue on interracial intimacy in France and the French empire, co-edited by Elisa Camiscioli and Caroline Séquin, and invites to explore sex, love, conjugality, and desire across the color line in any period of French history.

    Activism within internationalist networks

    A global history from below

    The aim of this conference is to redefine internationalism through its networks and militant practices, working from the macro and micro scales to inscribe it in an extra-European perspective. This prerequisite allows for a recognition of the dialogue between a global history and a “bottom-up” approach. These two approaches contribute to the revival of prosopography and to the redefinition of the hermeneutical challenges of biographical work, particularly when they are grounded in the experience and phenomenology of activist practices, and their geographical and sociological spatialisation. Gender dynamics, Subaltern studies, the Alltagsgeschichte and solidarities will therefore be at the heart of this conference.

    Reading and picking up texts. The excerption signs and their form, uses and purposes (6th-12th centuries)

    By bringing together historians, philologists, paleographers and codicologists, this conference aims to reflect on a category of annotations visible in texts preserved in medieval Latin manuscripts through case studies: excerption marks or extraction marks. Isolating portions of texts for later re-use, these marks, composed of an initial and a final sign and written by readers, are indicative of the preparation of intellectual undertakings. The aim is to provide an initial overview of excerption practices (typology, uses, distribution, etc.) over several centuries (6th-12th c.).

    Between philosophy and psychoanalysis: the image

    Le développement contemporain d’une civilisation de l’image compris comme développement d’une civilisation de la technique, prend une signification toute particulière aujourd’hui, alors que l’essor des technologies numériques et maintenant de l’intelligence artificielle donne au simulacre consistance matérielle et technique, et réciproquement à l’image une dimension virtuelle, voire spectrale, décisive. Qu’entend-on alors exactement par image ? La notion même de civilisation de l’image, du point de vue de l’analyse des médias et des intermédialités, comme du point de vue psychanalytique de l’analyse du sujet et de son rapport au monde, comme dans la prise en compte phénoménologique de l’empreinte que le monde laisse en nous, suppose que l’image aurait pris la place de quelque chose, ou aurait occupé un territoire qui ne lui était pasprimitivement dévolu. C’est cette place, ce territoire, que ce numéro de la revue Rubriques se propose d’aborder.
