    Mediasphere, Culture, Soft Power

    In the wake of the London Olympics, which opened with a popular and populist ceremony depicting the Britain of yesteryear while celebrating the vibrancy of a modern multicultural society, it is timely to consider this deployment of soft power against the backdrop of contemporary Britain. More specifically, the aim of the conference is to explore and draw together common threads and themes – individual expression and freedom, an inherent consciousness of the past and a continuing national identity and iconoclasm – and to consider their influence in the context of broader political and social developments, including Britain’s faltering relationship with the EU, the response to the financial crisis and to Scottish devolution.

    In-Corporate. The Human Sciences in Business History: between Naturalization and Legitimization (1880-1940)

    Even if human scientists and business executives like to argue otherwise, the human sciences have always been in-corporated. Without them, the modern business corporation would simply have been unimaginable, just as the production and consumption of working bodies within these corporations. ‘The Firm’ continues to frame itself as a fundamental human enterprise, in which the prominence of human ressources and human relations only continues to increase, yet the humanities of the business corporation largely remain to be written.

    War, University and Science

    Call for Papers

    During the contemporaneity, military conflicts often provoked junctures of rupture and transformation in pre-existing realities, whether in political, economic or social contexts, or in cultural, scientific and intellectual domains, endued, sometimes of more conservative typologies or yet of a more modernising nature. In this sense, we intend to initiate an interdisciplinary debate on the problematic of "War, University and Science", bearing in mind these multiple relationships and interdependencies, as well as the associated epistemological problematic.

    Les minorités ethniques ou nationales. Entre renouvellement et permanences

    Revue Belgéo

    Les coordinateurs de ce numéro de Belgéo souhaitent réfléchir sur le thème des « minorités ethniques ou nationales » deux concepts plurivoques entendus ici de façon souple, mais inscrits dans la lignée de P. Poutignat et J. Streiff-Fénart décrivant des groupes qui « n’existent que par la croyance subjective qu’ont leurs membres de former une communauté ». Dialectiquement liée à l’existence d’une majorité, la minorité — population en demande de reconnaissance d’une différence — est « ethnique » éventuellement d’un point de vue racial mais surtout par l’existence de « marqueurs ethniques » (langue, religion, culture, ou autres) qui lui sont spécifiques. La volonté de distinction implique reconnaissance dans la loi comme dans les discours. La façon de nommer les lieux, les individus ; les statuts accordés ou revendiqués ; la visibilité dans l’espace politique et social sont autant d’éléments caractérisant l’altérité.

    Sufism in an Age of Transition

    Bringing together established and early career scholars working across a range of disciplines, including history, anthropology and political science, the Workshop is intended to deepen our understanding of Sufism in Pakistan not as a ‘degraded’ form of Islamic mysticism but as a living tradition ever responsive to wider social and political changes at the local and national levels.  By doing so, it hopes to shed light on the resilience of Sufism to survive the challenge of more ‘modern’ forms of reformist Islam sweeping Pakistan as well as Sufism’s capacity to withstand the historical pressures brought to bear on it by the state’s own ‘modernist’ agenda.

    Das Büro als Interieur (1880-1960)

    Die sog. «zweite industrielle Revolution» steht für ein signifikantes Wachstum des tertiären Sektors (Banken, Versicherungen etc.) ebenso entstehen sowohl in der Industrie wie in den Ämtern und Behörden neue Verwaltungseinrichtungen. Damit einher geht eine massive Erhöhung der Angestelltenzahlen. Der Angestellte wird zu der sozioprofessionellen Figur der urbanen Moderne, wobei der berufstätigen Frau zunehmende Bedeutung zukommt. Die Tagung beschäftigt sich mit der Entstehung des Büros, um die Wechselbeziehungen zwischen physischem und sozialem Raum, Materialität und Praktiken, Strategien und Taktiken, Strukturen und Individuen zu analysieren. Ebenso soll das Büro in eine historische Perspektive gerückt werden, soll das Augenmerk auf die Bedeutung des Büros für die Strukturierung und Transformation der soziokulturellen Gegebenheiten von der vorletzten Jahrhundertwende bis Ende der 1950er Jahre gerichtet werden.

    Historical Sources and Transnational Approaches to European History

    CENDARI Summer School

    The CENDARI project, in collaboration with the COST Action: IS 1005, Medioevo Europeo: Medieval Studies and Technological Resources, will host the first of three annual CENDARI Summer Schools in Florence, Italy. Sessions will apply the concept of ‘transnational moments’ to examine ways in which historical research is complicated by the nature of material records of the past. The Summer School will provide a context for the various collections-level challenges to transnational history, such as how to identify sources that have become ‘hidden’ or lost through accidents of history.

    Performing Documentation in the Conservation of Contemporary Art

    Contemporary art conservation requires a re-assessment of the distinction between the work and its re-configuration in documentation. Although documentation is crucial for the survival of many contemporary works of art, it is never neutral: all approaches, formats, media and systems have their own inherent affordances and blind spots and always transform what they document. Furthermore, in process-centered, technology-based or performative artworks in particular, we often can no longer make a sharp distinction between an original work and its subsequent documentation or replication: documentation is part of the work's very core.

    Sport Tourism and Local Sustainable Development

    Prospective of the globalization effects. Actors strategy and responsibility

    The knowledge about sport tourism today is at the same level as the economy of sport was at the beginning of the eighties, at least in Europe. A quick overview on what is done today concerning the investments in sports tourism shows that the same mistakes are done everywhere and the development of Sport Tourism without knowing the long term effects avoid to optimize the short term economic results and impacts the long term results. One of the purposes of the IRNIST is to propose a definition of the concept as to gather the scientific community and build the basement of a new part of the studies concerning tourism.

    DfD – Design for Desertification

    The main aims of this International Conference are to gather articles and presentations that can contribute to enrich the debate on territorial consequences of rural-urban migration, depopulation and desertification. One of the consequences of several years of migration from rural to urban areas in Portugal, as it leaves the villages in the interior of the country depopulated, is cultural genocide. Design for Desertification is a research project that contextualises these issues within the Portuguese territory showing how economic decline, desertification and depopulation are interconnected and how rural development could present a solution to economic decline.

    Rethinking the Political and the History of Politics in Chile: Languages, Discourses and Practices of Power

    The objective of this colloquium will be to debate and analyze politics and the political by means of the different forms of language, discourse and practices that intervene in the construction of the social world. There are myriad examples of this in Chilean history. Taking history, political philosophy and political economy as the starting points, we invite doctoral candidates, researchers and academics to participate in this truly trans disciplinary  space of debate, reflection and feedback whose goal is not only to unite a community of researchers into “the political” in the republican period but also to select the best works presented for a future publication in the format of a collective work or a special dossier of a scientific publication.
