The Social Life of Names and Naming Practices in the Context of Migration
Names are not mere labels but powerful tools through which people assert identity, are categorised, and negotiate relationships with states, institutions and communities. Whether they refer to people, places or businesses, names do things : they index belonging and difference, tell stories, record histories of mobility and settlement, and mediate social interaction. This topical collection uses names and naming practices to trace the reconfigurations that accompany migration.

Minority Uses of the Past and Dynamics of Power in the Americas (19th–21st Centuries)
This conference follows on from an initial meeting, which focused on the forms of uses of the past, to examine the consequences of these uses and their results, both on national history and on minorities, as well as on disciplines and their methods. Researchers from different disciplines are invited to reflect on the same subjects from the perspective of their methods: anthropologists, sociologists, geographers, historians, specialists in literary studies, cultural studies, art historians, and linguists. The following four themes may guide proposals for papers.

Democracy at University: Voicing Choices
In France, as abroad, questions of democracy span multiple social fields. The University appears as a privileged place for observation and reflection. As a space for academic and civic education, for the transmission of knowledge and collective experimentation, it also constitutes a laboratory for democratic practices.

Development Seen from Africa: Perceptions, Management, and the Challenge of “Better Living”
Revue « Daftari za Ngūgī », Vol. 6, 1er semestre 2027
Ce numéro de la revue Daftari za Ngūgī (ex-Nouvelles Dynamiques Africaines) invite à une rupture épistémique avec les mesures occidentales du développement (IDH). Contre la vision d’une Afrique pathologisée par les classements internationaux, cet appel sollicite des enquêtes empiriques rigoureuses explorant le « développement par le bas » : économie informelle, solidarités villageoises et définitions endogènes du « vivre-mieux ».

Arts and Literature in Latin America in the 21st Century: A Crossroads?
Amerika n°32
Following the colloquium held in Rennes, France, on October 9 and 10, to celebrate the magazine's fifteenth anniversary and as we approach the end of the first quarter of the 21st century, we would like to explore how contemporary Latin American imaginaries (primarily through literary and artistic production) contextualize not only belonging to specific territories but also the place these territories occupy in an increasingly globalized cultural universe.

Ruptures et/ou continuités ?
L’objectif est de faire un état des recherches sur les évolutions des représentations et des imaginaires d’identité et d’altérité sur/dans les Amériques, ainsi qu’aux enjeux de pouvoir qu’ils portent, à travers les pratiques et productions artistiques et culturelles et de poser les bases pour la création d’un réseau international de recherche dans la matière. La réflexion sur les contenus sera indissociable d’une réflexion sur les formes et les conventions narratives et esthétiques en tant qu’« instruments cognitifs » qui véhiculent une adhésion ou une critique au paradigme colonial de la connaissance et du pouvoir occidental.

Rereading, (re)emergence, appropriation: What is to be done with the art of the past?
The writings of art historians, like the works of art themselves, are a place of emergence, return, and incessant reinterpretation. This dialogue between periods at the heart of both artistic creation and the narrative of our discipline will be the subject of the 2026 edition of the Ecole de Printemps. Proposals for papers could present case studies, where a work or body of work quotes, repeats, adopts, or readapts earlier images, objects, or monuments. They might analyse historiographical reinterpretations by considering them as transhistorical interventions and reappropriations – whether textual, visual or museum-based.

Résiliences, écologie et plurivers : dialogues entre savoirs, sciences et création (REPLU)
Ce colloque propose d’interroger les dialogues entre savoirs autochtones, sciences humaines, différentes approches scientifiques et pratiques artistiques et littéraires, dans une perspective décoloniale et pluriverselle. Inspiré par les théories du More-than-Human Turn et par les réflexions autour des Pluriversalist Revolutions — entendues comme des pratiques auto-poétiques de recherche-création entre arts performatifs et [contre-] anthropologies —, il s’agira de réfléchir aux manières dont les savoirs situés, les cosmologies locales et les formes esthétiques participent à la construction d’alternatives au paradigme extractiviste dominant.

This panel explores the interaction between legal norms, sovereignty formation, and geopolitical dynamics in nineteenth-century Latin America. During this period, new republics faced the simultaneous challenges of consolidating internal authority and projecting it outward in a rapidly shifting international environment. Legal norms—constitutional, civil, penal, administrative, and consular—became key instruments through which states defined their international position and negotiated their place within an emerging hemispheric order.

The In Vivo Arts team proposes an exploration of the concept of virtualities, and therefore invite artists, researchers, playwrights, performers, theorists, technicians, educators, and thinkers in the performing arts and cinema to submit reflections, texts, experiments, critiques, archives, works, or testimonies that interrogate this concept beyond its broad association with the world of digital technology, Artificial Intelligence, or new technologies.

Economy of leftovers and recycling
Social, political and environmental dynamics in the Global South
Economies built around waste – rubbish, unsold goods, surplus, scrap, used materials – are becoming increasingly important in the Global South. This issue therefore aims to examine these forms of economic activity from three main perspectives: environmental, socio-economic and political. The objective is to bring together empirical and theoretical work that documents, compares and problematises these waste economies based on surveys conducted in Southern countries, while taking into account the circulation and cross-influences with Northern countries. These ‘waste products’ can take various forms, which the issue intends to consider in an open and pluralistic perspective.

Crossed Perspectives on/with Unaccompanied Young Migrants: Words, Images and Discourses
We are organizing this conference in order to reflect on the worlds of words, images, discourses, and opinions surrounding these young migrants, produced both by the young people themselves and by the influential actors of our societies. We will question the scope of these representational worlds and their capacity to offer real alternatives for understanding migration with regard to UM-FIM-YIM. It is also a matter of observing, through the prism of media discourse, the role of the state, institutions, and different associative actors in the management of these phenomena.
