    Interest groups in post-socialist Central Europe

    A comparative analysis of historical, political, economic and cultural changes

    In 2024, Ukraine adopted a law on lobbying in order to meet the requirements of the European Union as part of its accession process, which aims in particular to promote a culture of transparent lobbying. These rapidly evolving practices in Central Europe are at the heart of renewed research into the various links between political and administrative actors and private actors: what is the current state of knowledge?

    Energy transitions and economic thinking in German-speaking territories, 1800-2000

    ETRANHET explores how economic ideas on energy have developed in various market-economy contexts around the world, since the first waves of industrialization at the turn of the 19th century. It particularly addresses three key questions: (1) How did past economists (broadly defined) conceive the connection between energy, growth, and development? (2) How did they consider innovation and technological change in energy affairs? (3) How did economic discourse on energy influence policymaking, and vice versa? Areas covered by the project include Continental Europe, the British Isles, North and Latin America, South-East Asia, and some areas under colonial control. This workshop will be an opportunity to look more closely at German-speaking territories within Continental Europe.

    Confronting the Crisis of Expertise: Historical Roots and Current Challenges

    In the post-Covid-19 world, the problems already experienced by democracies with regards to social divisions and diminishing trust in public institutions are exacerbated by a growing epistemic crisis concerning the simultaneous need and contestation of expertise for public policy purposes. The existence of uncertain statistical data, the search for past models in dealing with hidden enemies, the public attempts to translate scientific knowledge and to make sense of decision-making processes, all point to a persistent need for advanced skills for working with governance data and discourses.       Our course enhances participants’ skills in analyzing the incorporation of techno and scientific knowledge into public governance and discourses. The summer school seeks to provide the tools and categories to critically assess systemic responses in times of both contested expertise and scientificization of politics.

    De la libération des corps à la libération des esprits, les idées de réformes en Russie et en Europe, XIXe–début XXIe siècle

    La conférence est dédiée au 150e anniversaire de l’abolition du servage en Russie

    Le milieu du XIXe siècle a vu, aux deux extrémités de l’Europe, la fin de pratiques contraignantes visant les individus eux-mêmes et leur liberté de mouvement, de libre disposition de leur personne sous la forme de l’esclavage dans les colonies européennes, du servage dans l’Empire russe. Cette réforme essentielle entre dans un processus visant à renforcer les libertés individuelles qui se fraie un chemin difficile au cours des XIX et XXe siècles. « De la libération des corps à la libération des esprits » vise à articuler les différents moments de ces mutations dans différents pays, dans différentes cultures, en fonction à la fois d’histoires nationales différentes et de problématiques qui se croisent, interfèrent les unes les autres, se renvoient des modèles, des représentations en miroir.
