L’archéologie et le patrimoine minier contemporain (ressources non fossiles)
Terrier de l’archéologie 2025
Alors qu’aujourd’hui nos choix sociétaux sont plus que jamais tributaires des ressources minières, en particulier non fossiles, l’étude et la préservation du patrimoine minier ancien et la transmission mémorielle des activités minières passées deviennent un enjeu important. La journée réunira des acteurs du patrimoine minier contemporain, chercheurs et passionnés. L’exploitation des ressources minières non fossiles sera l’objet central des discussions. Néanmoins, si l’opportunité se présente, l’exploitation du charbon de terre ne sera pas dissociée de cette journée dans la mesure où des relations étroites existent avec l’exploitation des autres ressources minières.

Experience and its dimensions in child language
Revue « Faits de Langues »
This special issue of Faits de Langues aims to explore the notion of experience in the study of child language. Its objective is to explore experience in practice (its role, its materiality, its processes, its evolution, etc.), the uses of language and language development. We thus seek to bring together research that, directly or indirectly, mobilizes and/or questions experience in different linguistic dimensions (role of interaction, genres of discourse, activities) and sociocultural dimensions (multilingualism, interculturality) and in a wide variety of situations and contexts (social, familial, institutional - educational, pedagogical, clinical -, children with typical and atypical development, etc.).

According to some specialists, sport is a universal phenomenon which, in various forms, has always existed. For others, the existence of sport in Antiquity cannot be envisaged because, at that time, it was a cultural practice with a strong religious dimension. Whatever these debates, sport can be defined as an activity practiced alone or in a group, an activity requiring physical qualities, strength, skill, reflexes, endurance, and moral qualities. Practitioners observe rules specific to each sport, exercise for their own pleasure, their health or compete in competitions. This activity is partially institutionalized: many sportsmen and women join specialized clubs, affiliated to federations that define regulations and organize official competitions, Olympic Games, world, national and regional championships, tournaments, grand prix, land or sea races, etc.

Scholarship, prize and job offer - Sociology
Bourse de recherche avec le soutien de la Croix-Rouge française
Au cœur des activités de la Fondation, une conviction : pour répondre au mieux aux souffrances et en prévenir les causes, il est nécessaire de comprendre les contextes où elles s’expriment et de prendre le temps d’analyser, au plus près des populations vulnérables, les dynamiques à l’œuvre. Afin d’encourager et de guider cet effort de réflexion et d’innovation dans la réponse au cyclone Chido à Mayotte, la Fondation lance un appel à candidatures pour des bourses de recherche en sciences humaines au niveau postdoctoral sur la thématique suivante : Santé primaire et accès aux soins : de l’urgence au renforcement de l’accès aux soins.

De nuit… le textile des heures obscures
Les réflexions des journées d’étude 2025 de l’Association française pour l’étude du textile (AFET) porteront sur le thème de la nuit. Moment particulier de la journée, la nuit est le temps du repos, du repli sur soi, mais aussi celui de l’insomnie, du rêve et des cauchemars, d’activités spécifiques, comme le travail ou la fête… Elle peut être également synonyme d’ombre, d’obscurité, de néant, parfois de mort. La nuit est aussi porteuse d’un imaginaire fantastique, d’une symbolique et l’occasion de rites spécifiques. La manière dont les textiles témoignent des rapports que les sociétés entretiennent avec la nuit sera examinée sur la longue durée et au sein d’un vaste espace géographique.

Courtyards and patios in the Mediterranean
The courtyard or patio house, based on the intimate appropriation of a fragment of sky at the heart of the domestic space, is a major archetype of human habitation. Deeply rooted in Mediterranean traditions, it surprises with its longevity and its ability to generate unique expressions, shaped by the diversity of physical and cultural contexts. This archetype, which has spanned the centuries, from the ancient world to contemporary projects, continues to inspire architects, thinkers, and creators, and has regained particular relevance in light of the challenges of the 21st century, as contemporary issues invite us to rethink modes of dwelling. To explore these dimensions, the conference adopts a multidisciplinary approach structured around four cross-cutting themes. It is aimed at a diverse range of profiles—architects, historians, anthropologists, sociologists, archaeologists, artists, writers, climatologists, etc.—drawing on scientific contributions, feedback from architects, and artistic expressions.

Call for papers - Ethnology, anthropology
Revue « Parcours anthropologiques »
Les villes arabes, souvent considérées comme traditionnelles ou marginales, ont été redécouvertes par les sciences sociales depuis les années 1970. Ces recherches montrent que ces villes ne sont pas simplement des exemples d'urbanité dégradée, mais des espaces dynamiques qui remettent en question les modèles occidentaux d'urbanisation. Elles révèlent également des pratiques informelles et des formes de résistance qui redéfinissent les relations entre citoyens et pouvoirs. En quoi ces observations pourraient-elles influencer notre compréhension des dynamiques urbaines contemporaines ? Quelles nouvelles perspectives pourraient émerger de cette relecture des villes arabes ?

Raretés et exceptionnalités en santé
Synonyme de pénurie ou d’insuffisance, la rareté est généralement porteuse de valeur. L’anthropologie économique s’est en particulier intéressée à la manière dont la « hiérarchie des biens est organisée selon leur rareté croissante » . La rareté se présente alors comme le résultat d’une construction, un travail social de qualification, notamment organisé par des circuits sociaux (Zelizer, 1994). Elle crée du lien tout en différenciant personnes et moments, conférant en cela un pouvoir symbolique. Dans ce numéro, nous proposons de questionner les situations rares et exceptionnelles de maladie, et la manière dont elles s’articulent à des singularités.

On the Trail of Prehistoric Individuals: Scientific Challenges, Methods, Perspectives
This conference explores the identification of individuals in Prehistory—a topic that inspired several foundational studies in the late 1970s and 1980s. Nearly 50 years later, where do we stand? From the Palaeolithic to the Metal Ages, how can we attempt to identify individuals through the full range of available archaeological remains and materials? What methods can we employ to achieve this? What are the conditions of their use, their levels of resolution, and more broadly, their advantages and limitations? By applying these methods, what insights can we hope to gain into the social and economic organisation of past societies? Finally, how can we envision the future of this ambitious, yet undeniably complex, field of research?

Disability issues in French and European Overseas Territories
The situation of people with disabilities is specific in French or European overseas areas (the Azores, Aruba, Bermuda...). Several phenomena characterize them (marginality on several scales, insularity possibly, particular legislation, economic situation). Moreover, each territory has specificities of the same order. And it can itself show strong internal variations (French Polynesia, Guyana, Bermuda) depending on the distance from the local center, isolation or different forms of marginality (which do not include only isolation or remoteness, but a social margin). In these conditions, people live situations very different from those of the metropolitan areas, with care, views on otherness, solidarities... sometimes far removed from the metropolitan realities. However, on this subject, knowledge is often lacking.

Les bibliothèques en tension : conflits, protection et résilience
Service Études et recherche de la Bibliothèque publique d'information (Bpi), 2025-2026
Les bibliothèques et médiathèques se font souvent chambre d'écho des tensions qui traversent la société et peuvent se retrouver en première ligne de situations conflictuelles, celles-ci allant des actes de provocation ou des menaces, jusqu'aux dégradations voire incendies. Pour son nouveau programme de recherche (2025-2026) et dans le cadre des missions nationales confiées par le ministère de la Culture, la Bpi souhaite lancer une recherche consacrée aux bibliothèques territoriales en tension. L’objectif, à partir d’une analyse des ressorts des tensions rencontrées par les bibliothèques ou d’autres équipements publics est d’apporter des éléments de connaissance sur les phénomènes de protection, que ceux-ci aient conduit à éviter des attaques contre la bibliothèque ou qu’ils aient favorisé, suite à des tensions, sa réouverture sereine.

The Neglected Times of Architecture
By bringing together diverse disciplinary perspectives, this conference seeks to unfold the multiple temporal dimensions of architecture and the built environment, to foreground the actions, resources, and actors implicated in these processes, and to explore research methodologies capable of apprehending such dynamics. The event will also feature a dedicated space for the exhibition of audio/visual materials stemming from research engaging with these themes. Submissions may therefore take the form of traditional oral presentations, as well as shorter presentations centred on one or more audio/visual pieces—such as photographs, films, drawings, maps...

Behind the Scenes of Journals in African Studies
Cahiers d’Études africaines
This special issue of Cahiers d’Études africaines seeks to examine academic writing and publishing within the scientific editorial system of African studies, both today and in the past. Reflexive and critical, but without being strictly introspective, since it is not solely concerned with the case of Cahiers, this special issue encourages future contributors to take scientific publishing in African studies as a subject and a field of investigation, focusing on three entry points: texts, individuals, and journals. Its ambition is to investigate the “engine room” of the African studies publishing by examining its operating mechanisms and the challenges they reflect or activate.

Connecting Courts and Coasts : Trade, Knowledge, and Cultural Networks in the Western Indian Ocean
From Post-Classical India to the Late Mughal Era
This conference explores the multifaceted networks of exchange that characterized the Western Indian Ocean from the Post-Classical period through the late Mughal era (approximately aligning with the Medieval to Early Modern periods in the West). The maritime connections between South Asia, the Middle East, and East Africa created intricate webs of commercial, intellectual, and cultural exchanges that profoundly shaped the region's historical development and fostered a deeper appreciation of societies across space and time.

Geographies of Vulnerability. Assessing Protection in the Screening and Resettlement of Refugees
Central to policy discourses on refugee protection and resettlement is the imperative to include those with the greatest needs. International protection mechanisms for refugees increasingly aim to categorize and identify target populations according to their vulnerability. This topical collection recognizes vulnerability as fluid and contested, shaped by evolving policy landscapes and international cooperation dynamics and explores the impact of different understandings of vulnerability on access to protection and the aim of burden-sharing.

Tourismes : vingt ans de recherches critiques. Et alors ? et après ?
Depuis 2005, plus de cent chercheuses et chercheurs sont venus discuter de leurs travaux au sein du séminaire « Tourisme : Recherches, Institutions, Pratiques (TRIP) ». Pour cette vingtième année, TRIP propose deux journées de débats, en mode table-ronde. Comment la recherche critique se saisit-elle de l’emprise des plateformes et de l’arrivée de l’intelligence artificielle ? Peut-on penser hors des catégories et indicateurs de l’industrie ? Quels paradigmes, méthodes, éthiques pour penser les loisirs à l’heure de l’effondrement du vivant ? Quels programmes de recherche pour demain ?
