    Qu'est-ce que les géographies carcérales apportent aux études sur les univers carcéraux ?

    19th Annual Conference of the European Society of Criminology : convergent roads, bridges and new pathways in criminology

    The term ‘carceral geography’ describes a vibrant field of geographical and space-centred research into practices and institutions of incarceration, ranging from prisons to migrant detention facilities and beyond. Although rapid, its development is far outpaced by the expansion, diversification and proliferation of those strategies of spatial control and coercion towards which it is attuned. The dictionary definition of carceral is ‘relating to, or of prison’, but as Routley notes ‘carceral geography is not just a fancier name for the geography of prisons’. Carceral geography is in close dialogue with longer-standing academic engagements with the carceral, most notably criminology and prison sociology. Dialogue initially comprised learning and borrowing from criminology, but within a more general criminological engagement with spaces and landscapes  recent years have seen criminologists increasingly considering and adopting perspectives from carceral geography.

    Male Bonds in Nineteenth-Century Art

    The conference will probe, challenge and expand upon the academic narrative of male homosociality through the lens of art history. It aims to establish an overview of a variety of male bonds that underpinned nineteenth-century art, and to consider the theoretical and methodological implications of the study thereof. In so doing, it seeks to build a bridge between traditional art-historical scholarship and the fields of gender and gay and lesbian studies: an interdisciplinary exchange of which the full potential for scholarship on the nineteenth century remains to be exploited.

    Male bonds in nineteenth-century art

    Male Bonds is a two-day international conference that aims to explore the place of male bonds in nineteenth-century artistic practice and visual arts. The conference invites participants to reflect on the ways in which changing notions of masculinity and male sexuality impacted forms of sociability between men in the artistic scene of the long nineteenth century. In so doing, it seeks to build a bridge between traditional art-historical scholarship and the fields of gender and gay and lesbian studies.

    Tracing types

    Comparative analyses of nineteenth-century sketches

    A new wave of scholarship has emerged in recent years, which examines nineteenth-century sketches (sometimes referred to as “panoramic literature”) from a transnational perspective. The present international conference seeks to continue this comparative reflection by placing the spotlight on the comparative analysis of texts and images of specific types and by tracing how these representations vary across sketches from different places, media and editorial contexts.

    Comics and Memory

    “Memory is tabooed as unpredictable, unreliable, irrational”, deplored Adorno more than half a century ago. Although nowadays the study of memory has established itself, memory remains an untamable beast, broad and interdisciplinary in its scope. This conference seeks to understand memory, and more specifically the relationship between comics and memory, by welcoming papers on the following three lines of inquiry: personal memory, memory of the medium and collective memory.

    Collecting Cases: Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries Visions of Society

    During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries case studies focusing on deviant behaviour (such as crime, suicide or mental illness) and exceptional situations became an important part of both popular culture and the emerging human sciences. The goal of this workshop is to explore how these collections of cases, through their inclusions, exclusions and narrative and rhetorical strategies, comment on and convey an image of the society of their times or of the (recent) past. The long-term aim of this project is to publish an edited volume exploring these issues.

    Academic entrepreneurship in History

    An international survey of current research

    The Departments of History of Universiteit Gent, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Université Lille 3 and Università di Bologna are jointly organizing the international conference “Academic entrepreneurship in history” on 12-13 March 2015 at the STAM city museum in Ghent, Belgium. The aim of the meeting is to bring together an international group of scholars engaged in research on the notion and practice of academic entrepreneurship from the mid-nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth century. The focus will be on the range of actions, behaviors and qualities of academic scientists and their employing institutions which can be seen as entrepreneurial in at least one of the many senses in which the entrepreneurship term has been used in the economics and business history literatures.

    Doing Empirical Research on Sexual Diversities: Methodological and Ethical Challenges

    CFP INSEP2013 - Special Session

    This session is part of the INSEP2013 Conference – The Value(s) of Sexual Diversity. The conference focuses on the legal, political and ethical boundaries of diverse sexualities, “troubling” current assumptions, dispositions and claims for the boundaries between legitimacy and illegitimacy in diverse sexual identities, sub‐cultures and practices in both national and international contexts. We welcome paper proposals reflecting on the ethical and methodological criticalities associated with doing empirical research on sexual diversities and (in) sexual (sub)cultures.

    Immanence and Transcendence in Deleuzean metaphysics

    Deleuze’s project is usually presented as developing a radical immanentism. It wants to get rid of the classical distinction between two orders of being - the order of the essences and the order of the things in which these essences are incarnated - and it is very critical towards any attempt to re-introduce a (hidden) transcendent element into the immanent order. The "virtual" can be considered Deleuze's answer to the question how to conceive of a ground or foundation that does not break the immanent ontology. Deleuze describes the virtual as that which is not actual although it is real, as something that does not belong to the domain of the possible, as complication, etc. One could ask oneself if these descriptions are not philosophical constructions, that is, rather forced attempts to stay within the immanent order of being. How can we think the non-actuality of the virtual? Is not the virtual transcendent in some sense? Does it make sense to speak of an immanent transcendence in Deleuze’s philosophy, and if so, of what would it consist? Explorations of the historical roots of this topic in Deleuze (Spinoza, Leibniz, etc.) are also welcome.

    Academic Culture of Remembrance

    The combination of university history, jubilees and academic heritage

    The aim of this two-day conference is to discuss the triangular relationship between scientific research, the opening up of academic heritage and the creation of a culture of remembrance. Two series of questions are at the centre of this symposium. (1) Firstly, we would like to examine, from a historiographical perspective, the relationship between university history, the culture of remembrance in general and university jubilees in particular. (2) Secondly, the place of academic heritage in the creation and communication of (historical) knowledge of universities and scientific practices will be considered. Through a combination of both central themes, the conference aspires to offer some innovative perspectives for writing contemporary university history.

    Quartier et gouvernement urbain dans les villes occidentales de l’époque moderne à nos jours

    Tenth International Conference on Urban History

    Les politiques urbaines ont aujourd’hui tendance à se centrer sur le quartier comme unité d’intervention ; celui-ci est ainsi souvent perçu comme le principe organisateur du développement social urbain. En cherchant à renforcer la présence des centres sociaux, des conseils de quartier, en développant la police de proximité et en encourageant les citadins à s’organiser autour de projets comme le « neighbourhood watch », les autorités locales entendent améliorer la qualité de vie urbaine et consolider la cohésion sociale. Ce faisant, les concepteurs des politiques publiques reprennent à leur compte la notion de quartier, telle qu’elle a été définie par les sciences sociales – unité socio-spatiale cohérente – et espèrent pouvoir à leur tour susciter le développement du lien social dans la ville. Ces politiques posent dès lors la question de la nature même du « quartier », entre concept administratif lié à un projet politique et unité urbaine mouvante, informelle et extrêmement personnelle telle qu’elle est vécue par les usagers.

    Communautés migrantes et espace urbain dans les ports de la Méditerranée, XVIIe-XIXe siècle

    Dixième conférence internationale d'histoire urbaine, Gand, 1er-4 septembre 2010

    Recent research on migrant communities has witnessed a clear shift towards a more sophisticated understanding of the variety of bonds that link minority groups to the society they live in, as well as to their places of origins. Yet, when it comes to the understanding of past migrations, historical discourse still depends in many ways on traditional categories of analysis, that often poorly reflect the profound originality of the situations under study. This session is an attempt to challenge traditional and “ready-to-go” views on the organization of community life among migrants who lived in the Mediterranean port-cities during the late modern period (17th to 19th centuries).

    Sensing Masculinity. Thinking about the Masculine Body

    CFP – Social science history conference – Ghent, 13-16 April 2010

    Thinking about representations of and discourses surrounding the male body usually entails thinking about the visible or tangible body. Studies concerning the history, sociology or anthropology of men’s bodies tend to focus on esthetical ideals (such as the muscular look), the ability to inflict or experience pain (most notably in times of war) or to give or experience pleasure (within or outside the hetero-normative bedroom). This CFP is an invitation to think about the masculine body once again, and to think beyond ‘seeing’ and ‘feeling’ as the only means to experience, analyse or represent bodies.
