    Extreme Rigth and Democracy in Europe After the Second World War

    Coexistence, Contrasts, Contradictions

    It seems urgent to reflect on how democracies have responded to the presence of extreme rightwing movements, both in terms of political practices and rhetoric. Have democracies actively opposed the extreme right, or have they opted for strategies of containment and coexistence? Equally important is to examine the perspective of the extreme right: how has it interpreted and narrated the (supposed) coexistence with the democratic system? How has it dealt with the legacy of fascism and to what extent has it adapted to the culture of democracy? This conference will analyze the language and culture of the extreme right, paying special attention to its critiques of democracy, including its reaction of Enlightenment values and claims that democracy operates a double standard, tolerant in theory, but marginalizing and punishing the extreme right in practice. Giving historical depth to the extreme right’s relationship with democracy will allow for new insights into today’s public debates.

    Interspecies Interactions in the Visual Arts (1550-1914). Collaborations, Experimentations, Oppositions

    This symposium proposes to study how artists have not only observed animals and, in some cases, lived alongside them, but have also sometimes attributed agency to them. The idea of an active relationship between the artist and the animal raises fundamental questions about the role of animals in artistic production. Are they merely objects of study, partners in creation, or autonomous agents in a larger process? How does the making of artworks define or blur boundaries between humans and other-than-humans?

    Female Body or Women's Bodies? The Limits of the Body Metaphor in Jewish Culture

    A Comparative Approach

    The use of metaphor to approach women’s bodies in Jewish culture is a powerful rhetorical tool for conveying a specific construction of the female body within the social, literary, and medical spheres. These images define the boundaries within which this body is to be viewed, perceived, and experienced. By interrogating these boundaries from a gender studies perspective, this study day provides an opportunity to develop a comparative approach to metaphors of the female body as they are used to represent women’s bodies—from the Talmud to contemporary Hebrew literature, including the Midrash, legal texts, and medical discourse.

    Habits in (Time of) Crisis

    At the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, philosophies of habit questioned the evolution of habit following profound socio-political crises. They offered insights and models for reflection, which were, however, interrupted by the “agony” surrounding the concept of habit in philosophy during the twentieth century. Ultimately, philosophies of habit have only partially examined the question of how habit is subverted during crises. Although there has been a resurgence of interest in the constitution, function, and nature of habit in the past two decades, the explanatory hypotheses developed appear incomplete. Crises are often perceived as moments of rupture and interruption, but contemporary perspectives increasingly conceptualize them as enduring conditions. The international conference aims to address these questions from philosophical-theoretical, historical, psychological, linguistic, and ecological-scientific perspectives.

    Photography from the Struggles for Independence

    Practices, circulations and aesthetics

    The aim of this colloquium is to highlight the histories of photography generated during the processes of decolonization, while rethinking methodological and aesthetic approaches to the medium that are still too Western-centric. What has happened to the production and circulation of photographers and their images since the independence struggles? How did new iconographies, new aesthetics and, with them, new networks of visual exchange develop, complicating the one-sided visibilities and photographic circulations from the “South” to the “North” established during the colonial periods?

    Autonomy and The Law

    Interdisciplinary Workshop

    The Center for Critical Democracy Studies invites you to a workshop on Autonomy and the Law. This event will explore the complex interplay between autonomy and legal frameworks, with a focus on the right to housing, the concept of autonomy in law, child autonomy, digital markets, and a conceptual inquiry into the limits of autonomy. Key themes include the legal and social dimensions of securing housing rights, the philosophical and practical facets of autonomy within legal systems, the unique challenges of children’s autonomy in legal contexts, the impact of digital markets on individual agency, and the theoretical boundaries of autonomous action. Critical issues to be addressed encompass systemic barriers to housing access, the balance between individual autonomy and societal obligations, protections for minors in legal decision-making, privacy and consumer rights in digital ecosystems, and the ethical and legal constraints on autonomy. This workshop provides a platform for engaging in a dialogue on the pressing legal, ethical, and societal questions shaping autonomy across these domains.
