Ibn Khaldun: Universal Thought and Shared Heritage
Despite numerous studies and research on Ibn Khaldun, several aspects related to his life and thought require further exploration and analysis. Ibn Khaldun, as a symbolic historical figure, is considered a heritage that is both shared and contested by many contemporary countries that seek to "monopolize" affiliation with this figure and his intellectual contributions. This workshop, which coincides with the 692nd anniversary of Ibn Khaldun's birth, aims to contribute to deeper research on the life and thoughts of this eminent figure. Its aim is to understand how political and intellectual circles, both in the East and in the West, have received Khaldunian thought since the Middle Ages, but especially after its "rediscovery" in the contemporary era.

This call is dedicated to the Freedom/Responsibility binary, a concept that has regained significance and is being widely discussed in national and international contexts today. While philosophical inquiries into the relationship between freedom and responsibility have been central throughout history, especially in the works of scholars like Plato, Aristotle, Averroes, Thomas Aquinas, and Ibn Khaldun, this binary is currently a focal point of public debates addressing contemporary issues related to individual liberation.

This symposium will explore the global musical instrument market’s various facets from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century. The joint study of markets and collections, which grew in parallel and fed off each other during the period, aims to map the flows of instruments, the places and the players who put them into circulation from the perspective of a global history of music and material cultures. Upstream, the goal is to explore the provenance of the materials used in making instruments. Downstream, the reflection will focus on acquisition methods in the colonial context, instrument-makers’ sales strategies, the role of world’s fairs and colonial exhibitions, the social uses of instruments and the representations associated with them.

“Walking” Practices and Trades in East Asia
Traces and Techniques of Circulation on Foot: Modern and Contemporary Perspectives
This conference is to revisit “walking” practices and trades in Asia from the 15th century to the present day – but without geographical and chronological exclusivity, and taking into consideration the essential participation of pack animals in human mobility. Some pedestrian practices have been decisive in the functioning of societies, in supplying towns and remote regions; others “marches” carry, in terms of protests, a powerful political dimension, leading to profound social transformations.

Critics, buyers, patrons: does the onlooker make the sculpture?
The history of sculpture, like that of painting, has long been studied from the perspective of sculptors. In the same way, literary texts have long been read primarily through the lens of their authors. Yet, modern linguistics has, for over a century, emphasized the crucial role of the observer in the very creation of the message. To paraphrase Duchamp: does the onlooker, or the buyer, make the sculpture?

Conference, symposium - Europe
Mobility & Interactions in the Meuse-Rhine Region (9th–15th Cent.)
Young researcher’s conference
Throughout the Middle Ages, from the kingdom of Lothar II to the creation of the first modern state boundaries, the region of the Rhine and Meuse lay at the crossroads between two big linguistic and cultural areas. Political tensions, artistic currents and waves of spiritual renewal continually crossed this vast territory, stretching from Utrecht to Basel and from Cambrai to Cologne and Strasbourg. After a first conference organized in April 2022 at the University of Trier, this second multidisciplinary encounter aims to bring together PhD students and post-doctoral researchers working on mobility and interactions in this region.

Educational reforms: contributions from subject didactics
La réforme du système éducatif reste par excellence un choix stratégique pour répondre aux exigences des changements socio-économique et socioculturel locaux et des mutations de l’éducation dans le monde. Toutefois, la question est de comprendre la collaboration entre les différents acteurs du secteur de l’éducation et de l’enseignement et la société. Réformer ou apporter des améliorations aux systèmes éducatifs nécessite donc autant de recherches sur et pour l’éducation. Mettre l’accent sur l’apport des recherches en didactiques et la rendre intelligible dans la réforme éducative requiert une analyse selon les orientations suivantes : une orientation productive visant la construction des politiques de l’éducation, une deuxième orientation explicative-compréhensive qui aborde les choix éducatifs (contenus, choix curriculaires, pratiques professionnelles, etc.) et une troisième orientation prospective ayant pour but de dégager les lignes de force pour penser les réformes des systèmes éducatif.

Land Use and Consumption in a Historical Perspective
Definitions, Concepts, and Methods
The relationship between societies and soil is intrinsic to human history. Nowadays, this relationship is strongly defined by land use and consumption practices that, at different scales, increasingly threaten the common good and the biodiversity conservation. Urban planning interventions and intensive forms of production lead to the fragmentation, erosion, and ultimately, transformation of soil into a commodity, a freely usable “raw material,” rather than recognizing it as a non-reproducible good. In such a context, a revision of the evolution of concepts of use, consumption, and artificialization of the soil can contribute to a better understanding of the perspectives and rhetoric developed over time and in relation to contemporary challenges.

The “Professional Worlds” of Architectural Ornament: Actors and Practices from the 18th Century to the Present Day
This symposium aims to contribute to a better understanding of the "professional worlds" of architectural ornament, by fostering a dialogue between two dynamic fields of research that have hitherto rarely been connected: the history of ornament and the history of professions linked to architecture and construction. Resolutely positioned on the side of craftspeople and professional practices, the various contributions will focus on: the spectrum of ornamental professionals; the relationships between professions and the concrete organization of production chains; and finally, the circulation of people, techniques, and material elements. Covering a wide range of geographical and cultural areas, they will cover a broad contemporary period – from the 18th century to the 2010s.

Technocritique(s). Reflection upon 3.3 million years of human technical externalization
Wherever digital solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) have spread, whatever the creative domain or human activity, the impression of having a total, even universal, all-terrain technology has never been so strong. We cannot ignore that the digital revolution, while apparently offering simplicity and ease-of-use is accompanied by a rather remarkable invisibilization of technology’s infrastructure, leaving its users ignorant to the processes and material elements that encompass even the simplest tools. Homo comfort, as the Italian anthropologist Stefano Boni calls it, lives in a hypertechnological world, in which he is ignorant of most of its systems. How can one understand the least-effort infrastructure in which we live when recontextualized within nearly 3.3 million years of technological externalization ? Were 3.3 million years of experimentation necessary to arrive at this point, or rather, did we need to collectively forget our entire history in order to accept our current situation?

Magic, divination, astrology and justice, from Antiquity to the present day
The aim of this dossier, published in the online journal Criminocorpus, is to look at the issue from a different angle and to see how magic (or what is described as ‘magic’), astrology or divination, which constitute fields of knowledge that are more or less lawful depending on the period, interfere with justice. Depending on the social and cultural context, these relationships bring into play the relationship between justice and science and religion, varying conceptions of judicial rationality and the role of society and, increasingly, public opinion with regard to so-called magical practices.

Labour, trade unionism and collective action in Africa
“Nouvelle Revue du Travail” corpus n°27
Call for Papers for the corpus n°27 of Nouvelle Revue du travail, to be published in autumn 2025. Contrary to a currently widespread belief, wage labour and trade unionism in Africa are not disappearing. However, wage-earning as a situation of subordination and social protection is still a minority position in Africa and is dependent on certain sectors and national histories. The same is true of trade unionism, which is a specialised activity that represents the interests of male and female workers, but with the exception of certain sectors or historical periods is often low in membership numbers, although (reliable) statistics are also scarce. What forms does trade unionism take in Africa in this exceptional context? How can it shed light on major contemporary issues surrounding the profiles of the defence, representation and collective action of workers around the world?

Call for papers - Representation
Revue « Archipélies » n° 17, juin 2024
In this age of globalisation, when human identities are becoming increasingly complex as a result of multiple interconnections, cultures are obviously becoming increasingly plural in their expression of identity. While no culture has ever been monolithic, they are even less so today. Taken in this dynamic context – which implies, moreover, a diversified understanding of the heritage and the museum; in addition to the semantic and consubstantial variety of the concept of the museum – these three notions (museum, heritage and identity) have relationships between them which have an impact on the construction of cultural identities and which, therefore, merit attention in this world shaped by globalisation which, if it is not new, has a particular resonance in its modern and contemporary forms.
