  Accidents and Emergencies

  Risk, Welfare and Safety in Europe and North America, c. 1750-2000

  The aim of this conference is to take stock of the present by focusing on modern Europe and North America from roughly 1750 onwards. It welcomes historians from all sub-fields (social, medical, cultural, etc.), scholars from other disciplines such as sociology and cultural studies. Risk, welfare and safety have long been sites of historical inquiry. This conference takes this literature as its point of departure, and encourages both general and trans-national appraisals of the history and nature of modern "risk societies", as well as accounts which focus on particular technologies, practices and discourses. In sum, the aim of "Accidents and Emergencies" is to: rethink the history of risk, welfare and safety; encourage a more integrated approach to their empirical study and conceptualisation; open up new historical and sociological perspectives through which we might better grasp the present.

  Gouverner le développement durable

  Les évolutions des administrations de l'environnement en Europe et aux États-Unis

  In 2007 a new French “Ministry for sustainable development” was created, a "super Ministry" which houses the functions of the former Ministries of Environment, Energy, Housing, and Transport under one single roof. This merger applies to all levels of government, with the creation of large regional services for sustainable development. This mode of reform does not seem to be specific to the French case. At first glance, it echoes the concerns for more coordination and integration which have been already observed in several other countries including Germany and the United Kingdom. This workshop aims to compare different national situations regarding environmental administrations and their impact on public policies.

  Les cadavres et leur destruction

  Premier workshop annuel du programme « Corpses of mass violence »

  This workshop addresses the first phase of the research programme “Corpses of mass violence and genocide”. In the context of mass violence and genocide, death is not the end of the executors’ work. After the abuses, the victims’ corpses are treated and manipulated in very specific ways, amounting in some cases to true social engineering; this phase is remarkably little documented in the existing research. This conference aims therefore to explore this phase of destruction, across a range of extreme situations including mass cremations, concealment, profanation, displacement or re-burials. Focused on the 20th century, the conference will seek to reevaluate the motivations, the ideological frameworks and the technical processes at work in the destruction of corpses, taking a comparative and instrumental perspective which should open to new research in mass violence and genocide studies.

  « This Is the Modern World ». Pour une histoire sociale du rock

  Si l’histoire du rock passe par l’histoire des courants musicaux, elle ne se limite pas à cela. Le rock est un phénomène socio-musical complexe, qui mérite d’être étudié non seulement pour lui-même, mais comme un révélateur de mutations sociales et culturelles essentielles à la compréhension des sociétés depuis la seconde moitié du XXe siècle. C’est dans cet objectif qu’est organisé ce colloque, qui entend rendre compte de la richesse du champ, dans une perspective internationale et interdisciplinaire.

  Combattre en sous-sol : les taupes de la Grande Guerre

  La Grande Guerre n’est pas seulement une histoire de fantassins combattant au prix de lourdes pertes dans le no man’s land, ou de pilotes se battant au-dessus des champs de bataille. Plus méconnue, la guerre des mines est pourtant une part essentielle de la guerre de position. Cette journée d'étude invite à découvrir cette lutte souterraine.

  Tracking Innovation through Grey Literature

  Fourteenth International Conference on Grey Literature

  Innovation is a process manifested in and through grey literature. Both have their origins in knowledge generation and both demonstrate value for government, academics, business and industry through their uses and applications. In a way, innovation and grey literature are two sides of the same coinage. Innovation is the catalyst for positive change and grey literature is the measure of benchmarks in the further process of research and development. The goal of the Fourteenth International Conference on Grey Literature seeks to track the process of innovation by tracing the research life cycle and observing its convergence in the field of grey literature.

  IIEMCA 2013: Technologies and Techniques

  11th international IIEMCA conference on ethnomethodology and conversation analysis

  Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis are primarily concerned with the techniques actors utilize to accomplish the social, be it through workplace studies, studies of scientific knowledge, studies of interactional order, etc. The fundamental question that confronts Ethnomethodologists and Conversation Analysts - “how does this interaction get done?” – has and will thus receive a variety of related answers. We invite papers from the international community of EM/CA scholars that address the issues, practices and phenomena related to Technologies and Techniques. As is EM/CAs tradition, we cast these categories in the broadest possible conception, but are particularly interested in papers which address the themes of Technology in the Home, Workplace, or related settings; Technology’s Impact on Theory/Method; Technological Approaches to Data Analysis; Everyday Technology; and The Artful Techniques of Social Interaction.

  Crisis and Mobilization since 1789

  The aim of this Conference is to consider the historical trajectory of socialism—in all its diverse forms—through crisis and mobilization. We understand crisis in the broadest sense of the word, encompassing not just economic downturns, but also political, social, cultural, and environmental crises as well as war, famine, natural disasters, and other disruptions. Crises vary in scale too, from the global or continental level down to the local.

  Modèles de frontières ; des frontières modèles ?

  Revue Belgeo 2-2013

  L'étude des espaces transfrontaliers se fait souvent en référence à un contexte propre, dans la mesure où chaque frontière peut difficilement être analysée indépendamment du cas toujours particulier des États en présence, des organisations régionales, locales et d'une certaine histoire. L’objectif de ce numéro spécial de Belgéo est d’évaluer comment dépasser la démarche monographique et parvenir à une modélisation de ces espaces.

  Visible and invisible: perceiving the city between descriptions and omissions

  VI AISU Congress – Macro-Session II - Numbers

  The conference will focus on the many ways in which the city has been described, narrated, portrayed and quantified in words, numbers and images over the centuries.
