#MariellePresente - Transnational Resistances
The Gender and Diversity Journal, a feminist and queer review from the northeastern region of Brazil, invites everyone to submit articles, essays, interviews, field journals, reports and other texts for the special issue entitled "#MariellePresente: Transnational Resistances". The texts must describe and analyze the transnational responses following the assassination of the Brazilian Marielle Franco. She was a black woman from the favela, political activist, feminist and lesbian. She was murdered at the corner of a street in Rio de Janeiro in March 2018. Given the political nature of her assassination, many actions denouncing the crime were organized around the world.

Clomparative perspectives in the sociology of professional groups, the sociology of gender and the the sociology of migrations
The object of this session is the sociological theorization of the relation between gender and profession. Today, the question is less the exclusion of women from work defined as professional, considering their feinization, than their routine inclusion in ill-defined support roles. The presentations could cross several approaches (of sociology of professional groups, gender, migrations, intersectionality...) to deal with issues like :inequalities in women's access to certain professions, male resistance to women's carrers, delegation of "dirty work", the specific and cultural construction of a masculinist vision of profession work, how professions professes gender, the effects of liberalisation of professions (in many sectors like Health, Culture or Law) on their feminization...

Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presença
Des artistes de la scène, des performeurs, des médiateurs, etc., travaillent dans le contexte du transgenre. De plus en plus, la scène et la performance contemporaines sont prises par des artistes transgenres et/ou par des thèmes tels que les identités non binaires, les mouvements queer, l’intersexualité, parmi bien d’autres possibilités qui bouleversent les limites épistémologiques connues jusqu’à présent. D’un point de vue théorique, il ne s’agit pas seulement d’étudier les performances des personnes qui ne s’identifient pas au genre socialement imposé, qui vivent en dehors du binaire, qui ont changé de sexe, ou encore, qui vivent et interprètent des genres non binaires. Il s’agit plutôt de penser comment de telles performances quotidiennes imposent un réarrangement épistémologique de l’idée même de performance. Qu’est-ce que les personnes transgenres apportent comme indicateurs à la performance ? Comment les performances transgenres élargissent-elles ce que nous savons sur l’art, la politique, la résistance, la performativité ? Le champ des relations entre identité transgenre et performance est multiple et ce ne sont là que quelques-unes des questions possibles.

Quantum Social Theory: The Future of Sociology?
In sociology, without explicit basis on quantum theory, numerous streams established strong similarities with it, setting at the forefront of their paradigm: the subjectivity of the observer, the continuous adjustment between the object and the observer, the impossibility to be fully deterministic or discussions about an objective reality. In this session, we invite panellists to discuss the links that can be drawn between quantum theory and sociology. We welcome both empirical (qualitative or quantitative) as well as theoretical papers. Depending on the variety and the quality of the papers, a publication will be considered to set the basis of this emerging theoretical stream.

Estudos feministas e de gênero em jornalismo: história, metodologia e epistemologia
Revista Âncora - Revista Latino-americana de Jornalismo (UFPB)
A Revista Âncora - Revista Latino-americana de Jornalismo - lança seu novo dossiê temático que tem como título «Estudos feministas e de gênero em jornalismo: história, metodologia e epistemologia». A trajetória da relação ambígua e potente entre o feminismo e a academia é longa. Dos chamados estudos de mulheres, até a década de 1970, ao campo dos estudos de gêneros, que se intensificaram a partir da década de 1980, a atuação de feministas dentro das universidades provocou tensionamentos em alicerces importantes do que tradicionalmente se entendia por conhecimento válido, assim como o perfil e atributos esperados para caracterizar o então sujeito produtor do saber científico.

LabEx Céba "Plastic" theme school
L’école thématique PLASTIC a pour objectif de proposer un cadre de recherche pluridisciplinaire sur la conceptualisation socioécologique de la notion de planification spatiale (territoriale) dite « résiliente ». Le caractère polysémique du concept de planification sous-tend qu’il s’agit bien plus d’une diversité de savoir-faire que de généralités théoriques. Dans sa dimension environnementale, elle favorise l’émergence, la mise en œuvre et la diffusion des savoir-faire qui privilégient l’opérationnalisation des préceptes du développement durable. La durabilité est actuellement traitée par l’économie écologique à partir de la notion de « substitualité limitée » dudit « capital naturel ». Contrairement à la stabilité inhérente à la notion de durabilité, dans cette nouvelle perspective, la question de la limite y est fréquemment abordée sous l’angle de la résilience.

Afro-decolonial perspectives - practical and theoretical issues
Representations of Africans and Afro-descendants in school manuals
Ce colloque-atelier est le fruit des résultats d'un précédent colloque qui a eu lieu à Saint-Louis à l'université Gaston Berger au Sénégal. Son objectif ne sera pas la création de manuels scolaires au format papier mais la création d’une plateforme digitale où les membres du réseau pourront mettre en ligne des supports de tous types (textes, photos, vidéos, audio, peintures, etc.) en rapport avec les cultures africaines et afro-diasporiques. Ainsi, chaque enseignant, animateur culturel, artiste, éducateur aura accès aux sources primaires partout dans le monde. Cependant, cette initiative n’empêche pas à postériori la création de livres au format papier. C’est pourquoi l’optique de cette rencontre sera beaucoup plus ciblée sur les pratiques pédagogiques et didactiques.

Conference, symposium - Modern
X D. João VI Museum Seminar
The ways in which we understand this figure in the history of art are the result of the visual and textual discourses built upon it. Its representations are present in portraits and self-portraits, sculptures, paintings, engravings and objects. It is also built through artistic criticism, the press, caricature, pieces of literature, biographies, or autobiographies. From texts of self-promotion to cinematographic works, we are interested in all forms of representation of the artist's figure, both visual and textual. Our temporal range is ample, reflections on the artist in diverse historical places and periods, including contemporaneity, are emphasized in the Brazilian and Latin American context, without ignoring comparative perspectives. Our starting point is the following question: In what ways have the transformations of perception about artists and their meanings (social, cultural, symbolic and political) marked the writings of art history?

Art Collections in Portugal and Brazil in the 19th and 20th centuries
What are the representations of the artist's figure and how have they transformed over time? Intellectuals or artisans, martyrs or demons, naive or revolutionary, madmen or philosophers? Possibly, artists have been and still are characters in which several layers of interpretation coexist and blend. In this X edition of the D. João VI Museum Seminar, we present the theme "artist’s represetations", in parallel to the exhibition organized by Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo and the Brazilian Museum of Fine Arts, with the objective of investigating the historical constructions of the artist's image, bringing the reflection to the Brazilian and Latin American context, past and present. This has been extensively explored in French and English literature and acquires special relevance in this specific geographic universe, marked by the social distinctions concerning manual labor and the late formation of the art medium in the modern sense, after the formation of the academies and an artistic promotion system through exhibitions and the art market.
