Les usages sociaux et extra-académiques de la recherche en sciences humaines et sociales

Social and non academic uses of research in humanities and social sciences

Through the interdisciplinary lens of the journal Passerelles SHS, there is an opportunity for quasi-general questioning in SHS, as well as the possibility of enriching the practice repertoires of each discipline. These questions are all the more welcome here as interdisciplinarity is increasingly promoted by funding institutions when it comes to fostering the application of knowledge to practical problems. This issue thus aims to report on the non-academic uses of the current work of researchers in SHS. To do so, it will be organized around three axes: (I) Axis 1: Use by stakeholders involved in the production of research; (II) Uses by stakeholders and institutions in the reception of research; and (III) Reactions and adaptations of the researcher in relation to extra-academic uses.

What future for Theater in the Arab World?

Practices, movements and perspectives in the perpetuation of Theater production in the Arab World

The ephemeral dimension of Theater is often considered as an obstacle for a pertinent account of past representations, hence the difficulty of writing the history of a practice when we cannot consider every moment of its creative process. We cannot also apprehend clearly its future. However, even if it does not pretend to predict the future, this call for papers wishes to question the long-term effects and the procedures that contribute to the perpetuation of Theatrical currents and productions in the Arab World.

Esthétique de la respiration et culture de la qualité de l’air

In the vast atmosphere, I breathe the air inside my house, the air in my garden, on my street, in my city. What air does each of us breathe? The whole environment we inhabit: from our objects and our spaces to the products of human activity. Air quality relies on the material reality of our environments. It speaks to the senses, echoes in the development of our perception and requires the ability to acknowledge it. The “Respire” (Breathe) conference aims at exploring new ways of knowing the air we breathe and developing a sensitive culture of various qualities of air; presenting projects which explore ways to reconnect with a sensory perception of the air. Structured around three axes, the conference will question the relation between measuring tools and sensory perception, somatic and artistic research on breathing, research on “breathing” materials, and design and atmospheric architecture projects.

Book History with Heurist: the challenges and potential of a databasing platform

Many book history projects are developed in Heurist, an open-source web application that enables researchers to develop relational databases without any prior knowledge of programming. The Heurist Book History User Group is arranging an online workshop for the 20 and 21^st of July 2022. Participants will present their book history projects, discussing their Heurist databases and the challenges they pose. The online workshop has three main aims: (1) to inform the community about the possibilities offered by the platform, (2) to orient future developments of the platform, and (3) to promote Heurist as a tool for book history to new users.

Pierre Jeanneret, l’architecte et le constructeur - doctorats en architecture ou en histoire de l’architecture

Sont recherché·e·s deux deux doctorant·e·s dans le cadre du projet de recherche « Pierre Jeanneret, l'architecte et le constructeur ». Le projet de recherche vise à produire une connaissance nouvelle et originale sur la production et l’œuvre de l’architecte Pierre Jeanneret (1896-1967). Remarquable tant par la cohérence de sa démarche, que par l’intelligence des stratégies de matérialisation déployées, l’œuvre de Pierre Jeanneret présente une envergure exceptionnelle, portée par un engagement social sans faille toute échelle confondue, du mobilier à la ville. Les outils de l’histoire matérielle et de l’histoire culturelle seront convoqués pour éclairer la complexité de l’œuvre de Pierre Jeanneret et en reveler la richesse. À ce jour, elle n’a pas fait l’objet d’une investigation exhaustive.

Portrait lessons

« Journal des anthropologues »

This dossier is an invitation to gather, sometimes twist and distend a series of portraits, of people or things, known or unknown, ordinary or prestigious, and make them speak as much of themselves as beyond themselves, expressing the weight of the social world they carry, of the sorrows and happinesses they have torn away or arranged. Its aim is both thinking complexity through looking through the keyhole and revealing an illusion, a lack of, a futility.

Nordic minimalism (architecture, art, design and literature)

« Nordiques », n° 44, 2022

The interdisciplinary journal Nordiques is issuing a call for papers on the notion of minimalism as an aesthetic often associated with Northern Europe. Proposals are expected to study this notion in its various meanings, in its transmedial and transnational specificities, or in its aesthetic, historical and sociocultural anchorage, in the light of a Nordic delimitation.

Making with the milieu 

Art, design and the mediality of landscape

This call for paper deals with the ways of making the landscape in art and design and in the media. A symbolic revolution is currently at work, and we would like to report on it and anticipate its possibilities. The Anthropocene paradigm calls for a new conception of the notion of project, understood as the conduct of valuation in relation to the living. More broadly, it is a question of measuring and thinking about the stakes of the present situation by revising the "project values", that is, the relations between situations, means and ends from an ethical, political and aesthetic point of view.

Poetics of the fictional place in the novel of the Arab peninsula

Revue « Littérature et culture arabes contemporaines » (LiCArC), N°11

The next issue of the magazine will focus on the poetics of the place in the novel produced in the Arab peninsula. Since the 1990s, with the appearance of the “spatial turn”, many theoretical studies have renewed ways of analyzing the construction of places in the novelistic text, giving them a new status within the narrative. This issue aims to analyse space in the novel from a particular point of view, that of place, a concept on which theoretical approaches agree, not space because of its multiple definitions and metaphorical uses.

How Environmentalist Mobilizations Shape Buildings, Cities and Landscapes

Continuing on the set of concerns explored in issue number 11, “Thinking about Architecture through its Resources,” this issue of Cahiers de la recherche architecturale, urbaine et paysagère (CRAUP) also addresses the ways in which ecological questions affect the design of inhabited spaces, however, it seeks contributions that focus more specifically on the interactions between architectural, urban and landscape professions and citizen-led environmental mobilizations.

Museum Storytelling: Collectiong Sotries, Inventing Narratives

Museography or expography are increasingly thought of in terms of narrative, storytelling, and even self-narrative. While exhibitions and museums seem to want to address the affect and the senses as much as the intellect of the visitors, to whom they wish to not only transmit knowledge as well as propose a visit experience, the stories proposed and the spaces where they are inscribed are changing under the influence of the “narrative turn” as observed since the 1990s, as well the “visual turn” and the “affective turn,” which for the last two decades have been jointly influencing the humanities. In keeping with Leslie Bedford’s assertion in The Curator. The Museum Journal that “telling stories” is “the real work of museums” (2001), this international symposium proposes to map the new expositional practices of museums — collecting, archiving, scenography, website, communication on social media, production of texts — and the types of narratives that they revive, reinvent, or bring out.

Sharing and occupy public space in gentrified neighborhood: lecture of Jacques Rancière

Based on the concepts and methods of the philosopher Jacques Rancière, we propose to conceive the process of gentrification as a scene of sharing and disagreement. Scene on which the paradox of a forced access to housing and a shared occupation of public space occurs. Three terms of the conceptual landscape of Jacques Rancière help us to circumscribe the scene of the disagreement of gentrification, as the partition of sensible, the equality of intelligence and the dissensus.

The virtues masks of propaganda

This Conference intends to encourage the participation of researchers from different fields (linguistics, philology, discourse analysis, cultural studies, social work, sociology, philosophy, psychology, education, politics, etc.) - coming from Eastern and Western Europe, Québec or other regions of the world - to reflect upon the value of information in our globalized society. We are proposing to take benchmarks as the mask of virtue and propaganda, its context and method. Our intention is to recognize and observe them, to ask questions and analyze them critically in order to develop together criteria for better understanding them and developing a literacy to orient ourselves.

The art press today, towards a reconfiguration of a media genre ?

La presse culturelle actuelle recouvre des formats extrêmement divers : elle peut être une revue de critique d’art ou d’histoire de l’art, une revue généraliste ou plus pointue, un guide culturel ou un magazine qui traite de l’actualité par le prisme de l’art ou encore une revue consacrée à un art en particulier. Tout ceci sans compter l’incroyable variété de la presse culturelle en ligne, rassemblant des blogs amateurs, des podcasts mais aussi des revues numériques. Ce colloque international a pour ambition d’embrasser cette diversité et entend mettre en évidence la manière dont les médias – traditionnels et en ligne – portent un regard sur les arts plastiques, les arts vivants, l’architecture, le design graphique, le cinéma, la littérature, la musique ou encore le patrimoine.
