  Web and philosophy: why and what for?

  The advent of the Web is one of the defining technological events of the twentieth-first century, yet its impact on the fundamental questions of philosophy has not yet been widely explored, much less systematized. We hope to provoke the properly philosophical question of whether there is a consistent new branch or practice of philosophy that can weave these changes to technology and society into a coherent whole and have a real social impact.

  How to make the peripheral "mainstream"

  Recent develpments in the historiography of science

  Ces dernières années, le développement des études sur l’histoire des sciences dans les régions du monde dont on a longtemps considéré qu’elles n’avaient pas contribué de manière significative au développement historique des sciences s’est accompagné d’une réflexion historiographique approfondie. Ce colloque vise à formuler et discuter des propositions pour placer ces travaux et problématiques de recherche vus comme périphériques au centre de l'histoire des sciences.

  Man and the desert

  Multidisciplinary conference in Wadi Rum (Jordan)

  The area of Wadi Rum in Southern Jordan was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as a mixed natural and cultural site in June 2011. Scholars involved in the the preparation of the nomination file came to realise that scientific knowledge about the broader Wadi Rum area is scarce and does not do justice to the importance of the site, be it its natural or cultural dimensions. It also became apparent that there is a need to systematise research and documentation efforts, and provide technical advices to the relevant authorities for the monitoring and conservation of the natural and cultural heritage of the site. Man and the Desert: the First Multidisciplinary Conference on the Natural and Cultural History of Wadi Rum is expected to be the first of a series of conferences on the interactions between human communities and arid environments to take place every two years in Wadi Rum.

  Seminar on natural resources managment in configurations of environmental risk

  Le séminaire « Patrimonialisation de la biodiversité et gouvernance des ressources naturelles à la lumière du stress environnemental et sociétal est organisé à l'IFRA de Nairobi en relation avec un ensemble de recherches croisant les thèmes du patrimoine de la biodiversité, la création des aires protégées et les questions de gouvernances des ressources naturelles.Organisé autour de « cas d’école », ce séminaire pose la question de la gouvernance des ressources naturelles dans des configurations qui témoignent d’une interdépendance croissante entre les changements climatiques, l’accessibilité aux ressources naturelles et l'évolution des normes internationales en matière de protection de la nature. Il porte plus spécifiquement sur la capacité de sociétés vulnérables à intervenir, voir à gérer des situations de stress qu’elles soient environnementales et/ou sociétales.

  Websites as sources

  DHLU Symposium 2012

  The Jean Monnet Chair in History of European Integration and its Research Programme « Digital Humanities Luxembourg » — DIHULUX (research unit Identités-Politiques-Sociétés-Espaces [IPSE]), together with the Centre Virtuel de la Connaissance sur l’Europe (CVCE), are pleased to launch the call for papers for the DHLU Symposium 2012. This Symposium follows the DHLU Symposium 2009, also organised in Luxembourg by these two institutions on the topic of « Contemporary history in the digital age ». This second edition aims to examine the use of websites as sources for research in the humanities and social sciences, especially encouraging an analysis of this heuristic question in the field of European integration studies. The Symposium will address both methodological aspects and the theoretical and institutional implications of the public dissemination of research results, focusing on digitised and online published sources as well as on websites themselves, which will be analysed as born digital sources. The potential of this innovative research approach will also be explored and emphasised.
