    Photography and the ecological turn

    The ARCHIVO Advanced Research Seminar 2026 explores the intersections between photography, archives, and environmental thought. It examines how photographic and archival practices mediate relations between human and non-human worlds in contexts of ecological crisis. By emphasizing collaborative discussion and research-led exchange, the program equips participants with conceptual tools and methodological strategies relevant for scholarship, curatorial practice, and artistic intervention.

    Heritage entrepreneurs

    Private developers in urban heritage contexts and ecosystems

    A high degree of complexity, be it in terms of governance or actors’ diversity in local contexts, characterises heritage development projects, which increasingly rely on private interventions or public-private partnerships. In this context, the interplay between public and private interventions becomes a critical arena for research. Tensions, negotiations and innovations increasingly shape heritage development while highlighting the challenges and opportunities of the intervention of private actors in the revitalisation of urban heritage – particularly in contexts where heritage is commodified as a comparative advantage for rehabilitation projects. The main objective of this conference, which specifically focuses on the role of private actors in heritage urban contexts (UNESCO World Heritage sites, conservation areas, historic centres, etc.), is to explore the relationships and dynamics established between “heritage entrepreneurs” and other urban stakeholders in diverse heritage contexts as a means to shed light on how these combined actions produce heritage today.

    Seeing the Other Empire

    British Travel Writing and Imperial Rivalry in Europe and the Near East, 1783–1914

    This conference aims to interrogate some of these British visions of rival empires in narrations published between 1783 and 1914. It would be interesting to analyse the practice of imagined colonialism, that is, how the British travellers cast a domineering gaze upon their imperial rivals when travelling in lands that were not colonies of the British crown.

    Rethinking the Geography of Risk: Theories, Practices, and Interdisciplinary Perspectives

    “Geographies of the Anthropocene” book series (Vol. 9, no. 1, 2026).

    This volume of Geographies of the Anthropocene aims to explore and redefine the Geography of Risk, a field that investigates the relationships between natural hazards, environmental transformations, and social vulnerability. By integrating approaches from physical and human geography, the book will address how societies perceive, represent, and manage risks across diverse territorial, temporal, and cultural contexts. Contributions are invited from a wide range of disciplines — geography, environmental studies, sociology, urban and regional planning, economics, political science, psychology, and technology studies — to foster an interdisciplinary reflection on the theoretical, methodological, and practical dimensions of risk.

    Crossing urban Planning cultures in time of conflict and reconciliation

    Views on continental Europe, 1937-1945. Session 69 – EAUH 2026

    L'objectif de cette approche est d'examiner comment les traditions nationales en matière d'urbanisme sont façonnées par les contraintes liées aux conflits pendant les périodes d'escalade vers la guerre et d'occupation. Les historiographies nationales ont longtemps considéré cette période comme une parenthèse dans la circulation des idées et des modèles. Contrairement à cette approche, la perspective de la session implique une étude approfondie des théories d'urbanisme à l'échelle européenne, ainsi qu'une analyse des échanges personnels et institutionnels, des transferts techniques et des expertises avant et pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

    Heritage dynamics in the urban peripheries

    Heritage and the Metropolis

    Metropolitan cities are well understood to be in the course of constant change. The city’s edges push ever outward into the suburbs or the hinterland. Heritage, on the other hand, certainly in the guide of preservation is often constructed as resistance to change; and yet is not static. The call is aimed at researchers interested in the relationship between heritage and the metropolis, between heritage preservation and urbanisation, in different geographical contexts. We want to compare situations observed in the North and South, in formerly industrialised and non-industrialised regions, in very active metropolises and others in decline.

    Learning From the Desert

    Water, Humanities, Territories, Imaginary

    Faced with the global scarcity of water and the “aridification” of a growing number of regions around the world, this symposium aims to question the productivist and short-termist logics of our water management methods. To this end, we invite you to take an in-depth look at cases of territorial development in arid or semi-arid regions, not limiting ourselves to the technical question of water management, but broadening our view to include all the research and dynamics underlying hydrographic designs in arid environments.

    Capitals of Italy: Spaces and “identities” from the Sister republics to fascism

    This interdisciplinary Summer School, part of the Spazidentità project supported by the École Française de Rome, explores the relationship between spatial dimensions and the construction of Italian identity from the nineteenth century to Fascism. Focusing on capital cities, it examines how urban spaces, monuments, and museums shaped and reflected national belonging. Through theoretical discussions, in situ case studies in Rome, and presentations by doctoral and post-doctoral researchers, the program investigates the role of space in political transformations, revolutionary movements, and ideological projections. Key themes include the impact of unification, Fascist urban planning, and the contested narratives of Italy’s capitals.

    “Espèces d’espaces” : Space as a lens of resistance-existence analysis

    The Humanities have long given priority to the analysis of time, while space has always been considered as a container, the stage upon which the destiny of humanity unfolds. Nevertheless, the relationship between these coordinates of existence has been reconsidered in recent years, particularly in the Humanities and Social Sciences, where space becomes not only an object but also a lens and perspective of analysis, opening up exploration of this and other worlds.

    Travelling to the East. Marco Polo and the Mendicant Friars

    During the two days that will take place in Venice on 25 and 26 October 2024, the aim is to celebrate the story of Marco Polo through a multidisciplinary approach that sees Polo as the most famous figure but also covers themes and characters equally worthy of in-depth study. The papers will be divided into three sections: the first will be of a historical-philological nature and the history of thought (The Dominicans and Marco Polo); the second dedicated to the discovery of the literary genre linked to the journey, with particular reference to the missionary one (The Periegetic and the Missions to the East); and finally a third section focusing on artistic aspects and cultural exchanges (The East of Silk and the Arts, Maps and Polo’s Iconographies).
