    The Constitutional Overhaul and the War in Gaza

    The Puzzle of Civic Mobilization in Israel

    Much has been written on the constitutional overhaul in Israel, and the attendant constitutional crisis in the first nine months of 2023. Since October 7, however, with the breakout of the Israel-Gaza war, the overhaul was seemingly shelved. The Article discussed in this seminair seeks to connect both events, by comparing the legal-political response to the overhaul with the legal-political response to the war. It asks why, given the intensity of the protest movement generated by the overhaul, there was a dearth of protest activity after the war, even though both events implicated similar values, namely the rule of law and individual rights, championed by the protest movement.

    Après la présidentielle, la démocratie américaine à l’ombre du trumpisme

    Si les crises ouvrent des opportunités politiques, elles sont aussi matière à renouveler les grilles d’analyse scientifiques. C’est dans cette perspective que ce colloque, organisé en commun par plusieurs universités françaises et qui se tiendra dans les locaux parisiens de l’Université de Chicago, cherchera à interroger non seulement les dynamiques de la crise politique aux États-Unis à l’ombre du trumpisme, mais aussi la pérennité de leur démocratie.

    Genesis of professions and language learning: 16th – first half 19th c.

    The early modern period saw the emergence of a number of professional groups in Europe that both shared characteristics with modern professions and showed distinct early-modern features. A key aspect of this process was the introduction of specialized education, which often included language learning. This was particularly true for occupations where proficiency in specific languages was essential, such as diplomats, diplomatic translators, secretaries, scribes, scholars, and clerics. Moreover, due to the intensification of transnational contacts and geographical mobility among specialists as well as the circulation of printed books, language proficiency became an integral part of the education for many other professional groups, such as military officers, engineers, and artists. The objective of the workshop is to contribute to our understanding of the roles played by both state and private actors in the development of linguistic training for early modern professional groups and to assess differences in the emerging professionalisation policies across Europe.

    Breaking New Grounds: Democratising Gardens and Gardening in Great Britain, 19th-20th centuries

    This conference stems from a reflection on the social and political dimensions of gardens and gardening in Great Britain ranging from the Victorian and Edwardian eras to the post-war period. Pondering on “People’s Gardens,” Vita Sackville-West claimed that “we have been called a nation of shopkeepers; we might with equal justice be called a nation of gardeners” (Sackville-West 1939). Her assertion insists on a sense of community, portraying gardening as an inclusive affair spreading across the country to amateurs along professionals who undertook training in botany and horticulture. Yet, such inclusivity needs to be qualified and addressed, taking into consideration class and gender: how was gardening dependent on class in Britain in the 19th and 20th centuries? How did class condition gardening practices? How did men and women’s experiences of gardening or access to gardens differ?

    Commons and economic inequality in rural Europe (1500-1800)

    European Rural History Organisation Conference 2025

    Recent years have seen a flourishing of studies which have added considerably to our knowledge of inequality dynamics in preindustrial times. Scholars focused also on the determinants of these dynamics and some of these suggests a direct connection between the growth of economic inequality and the functioning of the public finances (i.e. Alfani and Di Tulio in their book on the Republic of Venice). Basically, the argument is that regressive taxation would have fostered this phenomenon, but we still have little knowledge about the mechanisms beyond this process. Why did this happen? How did the public economy’s choices influence these dynamics? How did the management of the common pool resources and the level of municipal and state direct taxation affect the paths of wealth distribution? Which were the correlations and causations mechanisms between the different elements?

    Defining what is right

    Politics of demarcation and the radical right in post-war Europe

    Discrimination – in its literal sense of drawing distinctions – is at the core of right-wing politics. The demarcation of people along imagined and uneven, hierarchical lines may be its key feature, yet one particular demarcation has so far escaped scholarly attention: The inner right’s self-definition, not as a nation, race, or Volk, but as a political movement and a coherent political thought, and its answer to the question of who is part of it and who is not. This process, though largely overlooked, can be seen as a particularly fraught one – at least for the right-wing movements of post-war Europe, which were not only faced with the tasks of shedding the devastating legacy of fascism, rearranging ideological fragments, and creating new self-attributions, agendas, and alliances. They also did so under the watchful eye of post-war societies and institutional actors, who themselves had strong motivations for defining what is (radically) right.

    Les domesticités impériales, XVIIIe-XXe siècle

    Dans les dernières décennies, l’étude des domesticités impériales a connu des renouvellements nombreux et a attiré une attention croissante. Qu’il soit servile ou non, le travail domestique, travail quotidien effectué dans le cadre familial et intime du foyer, apparaît en effet comme un lieu propice à l’observation des dynamiques raciales, sociales et genrées qui se tissent dans les territoires impériaux. De nombreux travaux ont ainsi montré que le foyer colonial et la relation de service domestique, loin de constituer des objets anecdotiques, sont des lieux essentiels pour étudier la manière dont les rapports de domination sont forgés, reformulés, et contestés au sein des sociétés coloniales (Stoler, 2002). Ce colloque s’inscrit dans le prolongement de ces travaux.

    Scotism in the Reformation Era

    Historical and Historiographical Questions

    Recent decades have seen great progress in our understanding of the tradition of Scotism. Thanks to the work of historians of late medieval and early modern philosophy and theology, the importance, but also the doctrinal complexity, of Scotus’ legacy have been brought to light. Historians of the Reformation, however, have remained cautious regarding the broad impact of this intellectual legacy.  In order to do justice to the diversity of early modern Scotism, it is therefore time to have a fresh look at Scotus’ legacy in the Reformation era and to bring together historians of philosophy, of late medieval theology, and of the Reformed traditions to discuss the import of Scotism in the 16th and 17th centuries. This is the aim of our conference.

    Caring, Taking Care

    What do “caring” and “taking care of” mean? To what extent are “caring” and “taking care of” similar or different from a theoretical and practical point of view? In which contexts are they situated and to what extent do they depend on other contexts? In this conference, we will consider questions about “caring” and “taking caring of” – possibly connecting or differentiating them – in a broad sense, by opening a dialogue about their definitions in different disciplines and subjects, on their roles in various contexts with both humans and non-human actors, and on the way in which “caring” and “taking caring of” establish relationships with other features that define existence, the ordinary and the extraordinary facts of living.
