    Impacts du changement climatique sur les dynamiques des milieux montagnards

    Cet appel à contribution concerne principalement les systèmes hydro-morpho-physiques de montagne, leur évolution sous l’influence du changement climatique et leurs impacts indirectement induits sur les systèmes naturels (Ives et Messerli, 1989 ; Beniston, 2005). Cet appel inclut également les menaces potentielles de cette évolution sur les systèmes économiques (par exemple l’économie touristique), et indirectement les modes de vie des communautés de montagne (Price, 1999 ; Beniston et al., 2002 ; Viviroli et al., 2007), en particulier les plus vulnérables vivant dans les zones montagneuses marginalisés (physiquement et économiquement). C’est pourquoi cet appel s’adresse à la fois aux géographes physiciens / climatologues s’intéressant aux questions sociétales, et aux géographes humains qui se préoccupent ou enquêtent sur les questions d’évolution environnementale.

    Alexandre Koyré: Transatlantic perspectives

    This symposium commemorates the 50th anniversary of Koyré's death by focusing on his legacy in the United States. In the 1950s and 1960s, pioneers of the history of science such as Thomas S. Kuhn, I. B. Cohen, Marshall Clagett, Gérald Holton or Charles Gillispie have all admitted his influence on the discipline. The participants will discuss Koyré's impact on the American intellectual landscape and the reception of his ideas among the historians and philosophers who sought to professionalize the teaching of the history of science in the United States.

    Love, Sex, and War: Towards another History of 20th Century, Europe

    Workshop One – Sources for Historians of Love, Sex, and War

    This workshop will launch a two-year research project focusing on the history of love, sex, and war in Europe. Historian Dagmar Herzog has called the 20th century “the century of sex,” while Laura Lee Downs and Kathleen Canning consider it a time when “gender troubles” emerged. Yet, the 20th century also initiated greater equality between the sexes and increasing liberalization of sexual norms and rights. Both categories – gender and sexuality – profoundly shaped the last century. Two world wars, genocide, and other episodes of mass violence make it crucial to examine European societies from a social and cultural perspective and to ask: what role did gender and sexuality play in these events? The workshop aims to identify specific sources that explore emotional realms such as affection, desire, inhibitions, repulsion, and grief.

    Santé globale : anticipations, infrastructures, connaissances

    The framing of health as a global issue over the last three decades has carved out an intellectual, economic and political space that differs from that of the post-war international public health field. This older system was characterised by disease eradication programs and by the dominance of nation states and the organisations of the United Nations. The actors, intervention targets and tools of contemporary global health contrast with previous international health efforts.

    Diplomatie globale et ressources naturelles

    Enjeux, pratiques et influences des acteurs non-étatiques (XVIIIe-XXIe siècle)

    La fin de la guerre froide a été l’occasion de (re)découvrir le poids des acteurs non-étatiques dans une diplomatie de plus en plus mondialisée. Selon Richard Langhorne, c’est avec le Congrès de Vienne de 1961 que s’amorce le processus de déliquescence de la diplomatie classique née au XVIIe siècle dans laquelle seuls les États jouaient véritablement un rôle. Cet affaiblissement progressif des États a conduit à l’effacement des frontières traditionnelles entre ce qui relève de l’action diplomatique officielle et des relations internationales plus informelles, menées en marge des États. Le poids croissant de divers acteurs non-étatiques sur la scène internationale est un signe révélateur de cette transition.

    Kolloquium - Religionswissenschaften

    La religion dans les territoires mouvants

    Le colloque de 2014 s’inscrit dans la suite de celui de 2012 qui portait sur religion et territoire. Actuellement, l’Europe fait l’expérience d’une diversité religieuse croissante ainsi qu’un changement important dans la place et le rôle occupés par les religions. De plus, les dynamiques de sécularisation, d’immigration et de croissance de certains groupes religieux, se combinent pour créer une situation nouvelle. Celle-ci suscite des défis sociaux et institutionnels importants, auxquels les réponses apportées diffèrent sensiblement selon les pays et les niveaux d’intervention. Les nations deviennent également des références changeantes, suscitant diverses modalités d’appartenance. Ainsi, le concept de  « territoire »  semble être un angle d’approche fertile pour bien des questions rencontrées lorsque l’on traite de religions.

    Performance Philosophy and the Future of Genre: Thinking Through Tragedy and Comedy

    International symposium

    What is the relation between laughter and thought? How does suffering bring about understanding? Do some philosophies have a comic rather than a tragic vision? The contemporary fascination with how performance and philosophy overlap begs an appeal to genre studies. Tragedy and comedy can function as exemplary sites on which the tensions between theatre, philosophy and performance are played out. Bringing together performers and scholars from the fields of philosophy, literature and theater, this symposium will investigate how contrasting genres inform the relation between performance and philosophy.

    Policies and their publics: discourses, actors and power

    10th International Conference in Interpretive Policy Analysis

    Anti-austerity protests in Southern Europe, the Occupy Movement in North America and Europe, to say nothing about the Vinegar Movement against the costs of hosting the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, are recent examples of spectacular contestations against government programmes which are paradoxically justified as being in the public interest. In a somewhat different vein, the widespread promotion of participatory democracy, at all levels of government, has spurred heated scholarly discussions regarding the 'democracy of the publics' (Manin, 1995). As such, the tenth IPA conference is devoted to studying public policies through their publics. The latter can best be understood as beneficiaries, recipients, and targets of public policies but also as stakeholders or participants in policy-making. In other words, publics are products as well as policy actors insofar as they inform public judgment (Dewey, 1927).

    Emotional Bodies

    A Workshop on the historical Performativity of Emotions

    The idea that the body is the site in which emotions are expressed is an old one in Western Culture. However, shall we alternatively consider emotions as historical agents that have given meaning to systems of symbolic relations which we understand here as “bodies”? This three-day workshop seeks to explore the conception of emotions as cultural practices that do things and have the power of creating emotional bodies throughout history. With this aim in mind, we will examine the production of physical, social, political, artistic and literary bodies in connection with the changing meaning of social norms, cultural codes and institutions, and especially as the result of the work of emotions.

    L’information géographique de l’histoire de l’art : pourquoi et comment retracer la circulation des faits et des savoirs

    Artl@s Bulletin 4, 2 (Automne 2015)

    Le tournant spatial des sciences humaines a poussé différentes disciplines à déconstruire la fabrique des faits artistiques : l'étude de la circulation des œuvres et des artistes apparaît maintenant comme un levier fertile pour cerner les logiques, les contraintes et les transgressions de l'histoire géographique de l'art. Ce « retour aux faits » appelle à une réflexion sur les méthodes employées pour identifier, collecter, mettre en cohérence et interpréter l’information géographique des traces laissées par l’activité artistique. Réfléchir sur la traçabilité des savoirs et des faits artistiques, c’est l’objet de ce numéro spécial d’Artl@s Bulletin.

    Tourism Gentrification in the Metropolis

    American Association of Geographers (AAG) Annual Meeting, 21-25 April 2015, Chicago

    This session intends to explain the multiple and complex relationships between tourism and gentrification in the contemporary metropolis. Several questions arise. How does tourism gentrification manifest itself and how does it affect the urban landscapes? What are the impacts for urban design and planning? Who are the actors, the beneficiaries and the victims of tourism gentrification? How do local (tourism) actors cope with tourism gentrification phenomena? What is the impact on local economies, urban functions and services? What are the outcomes for intra-metropolitan territories? What does it mean in terms of metropolitan governance?
