    Crises in the Americas

    Revue « RITA » N°16

    Crises are generally understood as undesirable, unexpected and contingent situations. In this issue of RITA, we wish to question the production of these phenomena that are calledcrises, from “laissez-faire” to “negligence”; from the banalization of the crisis in media oracademic discourse to the enunciation processes of public authorities. In “times of crises”, theywill justify more directly the imposition of social, economic or even military measures.

    The world of sports in the Americas and their political, cultural and social representations

    Amerika Journal n°25

    Sporting events mark the center of interest in the social life for many countries in the world. However, if we focus on the Americas, this importance is even more obvious. Sport becomes a reason for encounter, community, and connection. It brings out levels of interest and reinforces local, regional or beyond that, the game that is often unparalleled. Few people escape the passion that surrounds a country in the face of success in global competitions. This phenomenon, based on collective pride, pushes boundaries and includes even the most critical viewers. Can we consider this contradiction one of the keys to success?

    Multilingualism / plurilingualism, teaching and learning, complexity and integrity

    Epistemological, pedagogical and political perspectives

    This colloquium, to be held at the Université Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3 (France), a university that has worked on a dozen national and international projects on this subject over the last 20 years, aims to question the treatment of multilingualism in teaching and learning from the point of view of ethics and integrity, both theoretical and practical, considering the complexities of reality (context, variable scales from nano to micro). Seven areas of study are proposed (see the call). In addition to multilingual plenary lectures by internationally renowned researchers, the conference will offer multilingual workshop presentations, symposia, poster sessions, interdisciplinary and multi-category round tables, including national and international institutions, to reflect the complex dimensions and the integrity goal sought.

    From disability to human variation. Old narratives, new narratives

    European and American societies 19th-21st centuries

    The title of this issue of Amnis journal, ‘From disability to human variation’, reflects the concern of disability studies to move away from thinking of disability as a stigma and to consider it within a vast field that embraces all forms of bodily, sensory and cognitive diversity within the human community. In order to address the question from a broad spectrum, papers should focus on the following areas: Disabilities, struggles and social movements (from exclusion to ‘nothing about us without us’), Disability policies (national and/or transnational historical approaches), Disabled bodies and ideological constructs, Disability and identity, a category to be understood in an intersectional way.

    The Sustainable Development Goals under scrutiny

    « Revue internationale des études du développement » n°253 (2023-3)

    A new international framework for development, called the UN 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, emerged in 2015 as a result of the rise of sustainable development as a dominant paradigm for development and of the criticisms addressed to the MDGs. The new agenda established 17 development goals instead of 8 (MDGs). The SDGs made some progress compared to the MDGs. Because they target common challenges like climate change, the reach and legitimacy of the SDGs were extended. As we stand midway towards the set deadlines for achievement, it is time to question the relevance, foundations and the implementation of the SDGs. It also seems legitimate to question their universal and inclusive character, and their actual outcomes since 2015 by using critical and contexual approaches.

    Géographies du Sahara : nouveaux enjeux de recherche et renouvellement des méthodes

    Cahiers « L’Ouest saharien »

    The Sahara is one of the most difficult regions in the world for researchers to access. Despite this, geographical research on the Sahara remains dynamic. A desert space often considered as "empty", it offers strong and constantly renewed problems and issues: desertification, resource management and gold rush, migration and smuggling, border issues, etc. At the time of the Anthropocene, what can living, working and circulating on the margins of the ecumene teach us today? Three axes are proposed: memories, mutations, marginalities and Saharan centralities.

    Performativités noires

    Archives des corps noirs dans l’art de la performance en Amérique latine : une esthétique diasporique ?

    Ce colloque, dédié aux performances artistiques dans une dimension élargie, a pour ambition de porter un regard nouveau sur les répertoires de ces arts dans l’espace géographique, politique, social et économique de l’Amérique latine. Le but étant de discuter les transformations de la catégorie « performance » à partir de la présence du corps noir et du renouvellement de sources matérielles et immatérielles, terrains, méthodes et formats de recherche que cette présence demande. Pour cela, nous invitons à soumettre des propositions de contributions de formats divers (communications, interventions artistiques, entre autres) sur des travaux de performance qui relèvent de la scène artistique, manifestations visuelles, sonores et spatiales en Amérique latine, dans une perspective interdisciplinaire autour des esthétiques relevant de la diaspora africaine et des instrumentalisations des corps comme archives mémorielles.

    Summer School - History

    L’analyse de réseaux

    Objets, méthodes, perspectives

    Combinant les approches qualitatives et quantitatives, les échelles macro et micro, l’analyse relationnelle enrichie par ces nouveaux dispositifs de modélisation de corpus et de données permet d’appréhender de façon renouvelée les systèmes complexes de fonctionnement des sociétés du passé, leurs institutions et leurs structures de pouvoir, autant que leurs dynamiques culturelles. Dès lors, plusieurs questions s’imposent : comment les nouveaux outils de recherche disponibles renouvellent-ils la désormais classique « analyse de réseaux » ? Comment l’analyse de réseaux est-elle pratiquée aujourd’hui dans les différents domaines de la science historique ?

    Éthique, citoyenneté et enjeux éducatifs dans l’enseignement-apprentissage des langues

    Ética, ciudadanía y retos educativos en la enseñanza- aprendizaje de las lenguas

    Dans une société plurielle et aussi diverse que la nôtre, nous sommes amenés à nous interroger sur l’évolution des modalités de l’enseignement-apprentissage des langues. Par conséquent, quel est le nouveau pacte d’enseignement-apprentissage des langues capable de mettre en avant des pratiques éducatives fondées sur l’éthique et visant à former des citoyens dont l’identité s’enracine non pas dans la singularité mais dans la pluralité ? À la lumière de différentes approches disciplinaires (didactique des langues et des cultures, sciences de l’éducation, linguistique, sociologie, sciences politiques, droits de l’Homme, etc.), ce colloque sera l’occasion de réfléchir ensemble aux liens entre éthique et citoyenneté en contexte scolaire. L’objectif sera de partager des stratégies et des outils qui promeuvent l’éducation à la citoyenneté et aux droits de l’Homme en cours de langue (enseignement primaire, secondaire ou supérieur).

    La dynamique de l’identité basque : polyphonie sociale, réalignement politique et recréation artistique (2009-2020)

    « Atlante : revue d’études romanes » numéro 19 (Automne 2023)

    Atlante : revue d’études romanes, publiée par l’université de Lille, lance un appel à contribution pour un numéro consacré au changement des représentations de l’identité basque dans les productions culturelles contemporaines. Il s’agira d’interroger l’impact que la nouvelle période politique, ouverte avec la dissolution de l’ETA et l’entrée du parti EH Bildu au Congrès, a sur les créations littéraires, audiovisuelles et artistiques. L’évolution des sensibilités de la population, en particulier à partir de la tension entre les sentiments basquistes et/ou espagnolistes, émerge dans des romans, séries ou spectacles actuels, nourrissant ainsi la construction d’un discours polyphonique sur l’histoire récente.

    Physical and sports activities and populism

    Interactions between two contemporary social phenomena

    L’objet de cette journée d’étude est de dresser un premier état des lieux entre activités physiques (sports, éducation physique, etc.) et populisme, à travers des exemples particulièrement significatifs (Jeux olympiques, sport de compétition, formation, etc.), de la deuxième moitié du XIXe siècle jusqu’à aujourd’hui, à travers différents pays et, en particulier, l’Amérique du sud, berceau de cette « idéologie » avec la Russie. Le sport sous toutes ses formes d’expression (Jeux olympiques, sport « bourgeois », sport ouvrier, etc.) sera envisagé ainsi que certaines figures révélatrices de cette orientation (Mussolini, Poutine, Orban, etc.).

    Cordel Literature: new perspectives, new approaches

    Jangada Journal #20

    Due to its thematic, poetic, and expressive diversity, the cordel witnessed, narrated, and recorded several national history moments. Even though only men mastered the art of composing and singing in verse initially, little by little, women also took the stage. Nowadays, poets adjust national and international interest themes to their meter, rhyme, and clause. They denounce the system’s falsities and contradictions; they question decisions and mock hypocrisy without, however, losing that aura of playfulness and wonder that has consecrated the cordel among us. Originally handwritten and later in printed versions, cordel has maintained a strong connection with the voice and culture of fairs and squares, the fey and laughter of rogue heroes, and the feeling of indignation of the less favored and the exaltation of legendary braves since the end of the 19th century. More recent researchers drew attention to the relationship between cordel and its singers’ orality and body performance while singing poetry and African griots. In this thematic issue, we propose to host papers concerning the most varied studies on cordel literature and its cultural practices.

    What Latin America says to Europe: circulations, imaginaries, viewpoints (and fantasies)

    We often tend to think of Latin America as a periphery of the global space. The very idea of globalization is frequently equated with that of cultural “Americanization”. Understood as a “United States of America-nization”, it is generally considered only as a circulation of ideas, models, knowledge, techniques or cultural objects from the North or the West to the South. However, working on Latin America frequently leads us to encounter traces of it or to identify its influence in Europe. Politics, culture or knowledge: the objective of this conference is to study some of the diverse forms of Latin American presence in Europe and/or in the European gaze. The works discussed here will take these circulations as an object, analyzing their processes, forms and impact. But they can also take a more reflexive form, by questioning the status of European-based researchers interested in Latin America.

    Caring for Urban Nature

    Revue « Espaces et Sociétés »

    This issue of the journal Espaces et Sociétés is focued on the contributions of city-dwellers to the care of greenery in the city, with particular emphasis on two key perspectives. In the first, we look solely at practices that emerge in the public space, whether spontaneous and developed outside organised structures, or encouraged by institutional entities established by the public authorities. In the second perspective, the aim is to look critically at the urban nature activities undertaken by individuals, i.e. outside the collective practices traditionally pursued in shared gardens or big urban projects by public authorities, cooperatives or civil society organisations. International comparisons or case studies from outside France are welcome.

    Transformer et s’approprier l’espace dans les empires ibériques du XVe au XVIIe siècle

    Du XVIe au XIXe siècles, de nombreux territoires à travers le globe sont transformés par l’impérialisme des couronnes espagnole et portugaise. L’appropriation et la transformation des territoires et des paysages jouent un rôle central dans les processus coloniaux des empires ibériques. En interrogeant la transformation et reconstruction spatiale à l’époque coloniale, cette journée d’étude doctorale entend questionner la spécificité des outils et pratiques mis en place dans les empires ibériques pour maîtriser l’espace et exploiter les ressources des différents territoires qui les composent entre le XVe et XVIIe siècle.

    Networks and sociability at the court of France, 17th-18th centuries

    As part of its research programme “Networks and sociability at the court of France, 17th-18th centuries” (2017-…), the Centre de recherche du château de Versailles wishes to publish articles related to this subject on the Bulletin du Centre de recherche du château de Versailles. The court was a microcosm of society under the Ancien Régime. The royal family and the great noblemen were not only in each other’s company, but they also rubbed shoulders with a whole crowd of office-holders of greater or lesser importance, who ensured the smooth running of this mechanism.

Indeed, in spite of its gaps, this collection offers strong evidence of a specific view of the history of France that the Museum of the Palace of Versailles should analyse and question today.
