Extractivist Enterprise and International Organizations (1919-1989)

Workshop and Publication

Corporate actors have played a hidden yet highly influential role in shaping the global order, often securing their interests in international organizations, such as the League of Nations and the United Nations. Extractive industries, which focus on natural resources such as oil, gas, minerals, and metals, including rare earths, were the bedrock of capitalism in the long twentieth century. How did they exert their influence within, through and against international organizations? What tools did they adopt to attain their goals at global metropoles such as Addis Ababa, Bangkok, Geneva, New York, and Santiago? Who challenged their efforts and who supported them and how? What effects did formal decolonization have on the role of extractive enterprise in these global spaces?

The Devil and Dissent: Early Modern Perspectives

EMoDiR is now planning for the upcoming RSA conference in San Francisco (February 19–21, 2026), a series of panels analyzing the concept of the devil in the context of religious dissent. The significance of discourses surrounding the devil in understanding early modern practices of resistance and subversion is both deep and wide-ranging. By examining, on the one hand, the ways in which the devil was identified and, on the other, the implications of demonization as a process of othering, we aim at clarifying the place the “devil” held in the context of early modern politics, religious polemics, visual and material culture, daily communal life, and personal devotion and beliefs.

What Can an Animated Body Do?

PHILM: Journal of Philosophy and Cinema #6

The digital and the rise of special effects have further blurred the boundary between cinema and animation, enabling new phantasmagorias to emerge. But what continuities and divergences persist between digitally generated phantasmagorias and those created through animated drawing? To what extent has contemporary cinema, with its special effects, intercepted—or perhaps betrayed—that “threshold within the threshold” unique to the animated line? What can an animated body do, in contrast or in proximity to a film icone? PHILM therefore invites contributions that explore the relationship between animation and filmic images, extending beyond the genres of cartoon or anime, to identify the theoretical implications that the concept of “animation” holds for the construction of moving images.

Rethinking Sacred Images as the “Book of the Illiterate”: An Early Modern, Global, and Auditory Perspective

This conference aims to reconsider the notion of Catholic images as the ‘Book of the illiterate’ (Liber idiotarum), traditionally attributed to Gregory the Great, from an early modern, global, and auditory perspective. What does sound - understood as a medium of expression that connects bodies, images, objects, and spaces - reveal about the nature, function, and reception of sacred images at a time when the Roman Church was rethinking its stance on the figurative within an increasingly global landscape?
