    Online Bayle Seminar 2025

    While secondary literature on Bayle has gained impetus in recent years, with a new generation of researchers (e.g. Argaud, Van der Lugt, Levitin), colloquiums and meetings about Bayle are still rare. The aim of this online seminar is precisely to remedy this situation and is adressed in particular to PhD students, recent PhD graduates and Post-docs, so as to get to know each other and stimulate the research dynamics on the Rotterdam philosopher.

    Articuler les traditions politico-intellectuelles de l’écoféminisme français et allemand dans une perspective globale

    In light of the ecological crisis ecofeminist thought that first emerged as political-ethical and theoretical field during the late 1970s and 1980s has flourished in French and German debates during the last decade. The aim of the conference is to examine the ways in which ecofeminist theory is currently discussed in France and Germany, and how – in both national contexts – the respective traditions of ecofeminist thought and politics are re-articulated, criticized and transformed. Thereby the question how post- and neo-colonial power relations that shape the current ecological situation are addressed in ecofeminist thought will be of central importance. The conference seeks to re-evaluate traditions of ecofeminist thought in French and German speaking contexts, their uneven circulation and their present-day re-articulations.

    Prisons and Prisoners in the History and Sociology of Knowledge (17th-20th century)

    The history of prisons is “a history of constant reform.” Since at least the beginning of the eighteenth century, these repeated transformations (desired or achieved) (Morris, Rothman, 1995, vii) have been accompanied by the production of knowledge about architecture, physical constraints on the body, gender segregation, violence, sexual practices, proximity or, conversely, “punitive” or “redemptive” isolation. Yet very little research has focused specifically on this knowledge and even less, if any, has attempted to integrate it into the history of knowledge in general, and more specifically into the history of (social) science and statistics. Against the background of this research gap, this conference proposes to take knowledge about prisons and prisoners as an object of study. Our general question is: how did prisons and prisoners contribute to the history and sociology of knowledge and science?

    UNESCO’s Role in Post-War Educational Transformation and Decolonization

    On the 80th Anniversary of UNESCO’s Founding

    UNESCO played a pivotal role in shaping post-war educational transformations, contributing to the reconstruction of war-ravaged school systems and fostering new visions of education and learning. Notably, the organization assumed a critical role in the decolonization process, supporting the establishment of independent national education systems and promoting access to education for all peoples. In recognition of the 80th anniversary of UNESCO’s founding, the Roma Tre University is pleased to announce a call for papers for an international webinar series. This series is designed to provide a platform for presenters to showcase their ongoing research projects, discuss their chosen methodologies, highlight the types of sources being utilized, and share anticipated outcomes.

    Connecting the Dots in English Language Teaching (ELT)

    Tunisia TESOL 9th International Conference

    The Tunisia TESOL Ninth International Conference, themed Connecting the Dots in ELT, aims to address the pervasive disconnect within the field of English Language Teaching (ELT). Our conference invites participations focusing on problems caused by the missing links, for instance, between various educational levels within a single system, the possible misalignment between theory and practice, and/or the inconsistencies within curriculum components. These issues are not isolated but are indicative of broader systemic challenges that challenge practitioners and could undermine the efficacy and coherence of ELT provision.

    Stay or Leave? Family survival tactics during the age of emigrations

    1770-1830s

    During the Age of Revolutions (c. 1770-1830), Europe and the Americas were convulsed by a wave of interrelated political upheavals, social protests, slave rebellions, and wars. Republican alternatives to monarchies proliferated, even as colonial wars and abolitionist insurrections shook even the most entrenched empires. As a result, hundreds of thousands of people found themselves displaced and dispersed across the Atlantic world. While some chose to leave out of political or religious principle, others were forced out by some combination of ideological persecution, economic dislocation, and armed conflict. Wherever they ended up, the uprooted were forced to negotiate foreign and often hostile cultures and asylum practices. Drawing together historians and scholars of the literary, visual, and musical arts, this workshop aims to shed light on the least-visible members of these diasporas —women, children and servants— and to develop interdisciplinary perspectives on familial constellations of exile.

    Symposium on Intellectual History and Legal History (INTELLEX)

    The conference aims to gather scholars working on legal history or other aspects related to the teaching of legal disciplines in a historical context in order to contribute to an intellectual history of this discipline. Although the conference focuses on identifying the intellectual contexts in which legal history developed, social aspects are also considered, since ideas do not exist independently of people. The social aspects could be, for instance, teachers and students at universities, royal academies, or other institutions disseminating knowledge.

    Colonising and decolonising: Europe-Africa relations in the 19th and 20th centuries

    “Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal” issue 24

    This issue of Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal aims to reflect on European colonialism in Africa in the 19th and 20th centuries, trying to explain, through current historical knowledge, the colonial fact —one, similar, transversal in its ideas and practices— structured in different territorial and national strands, and highlighting the deconstruction of myths, ideas and theories that have succeeded each other and metamorphosed to legitimise and justify colonial violence. It is also about giving a voice to Africans, so silenced by the colonial system, by listening to their interpretations of a reality from the near past that left significant marks on their daily lives.

    Late Medieval Cardinals Between Crises

    From the Western Schism to the V Lateran Council (1378-1517)

    The history of the cardinalate, which stretches from the 11th century to the present day, went through one of the most volatile phases of its development between the beginning of the Western Schism (1378) and the close of the Fifth Lateran Council (1517). This congress aims to work and reflect on these cardinals, both as a group, gathered in the Sacred College, and in their individual dimensions, as lords, members of lineages, pastors, reformers, conciliarists, centres of courts, families and networks, diplomats and representatives of nations, patrons of the arts, among others.  The cross-sectional interest of this congress stems from the desire to feed the historiographical renewal that has been taking place over the last two decades on the medieval cardinalate, seeking to bring together researchers who are dedicated to its study, regardless of the angle of approach they may take.

    The Contrasting Effects of Digitalisation and Artifical Intelligence (AI) on Professional Activities

    ISA (International Sociological Association) 5th Forum of Sociology

    This session examines the effects of digitisation and artificial intelligence (AI) on professional activities. Based on surveys, the papers present these contrasting effects on different professions. The aim is to identify the automation of work processes, to understand to what extent and how AI is making it possible to save time and increase reliability, but also to compete with established professional skills, promising productivity gains while threatening to deskill and disintermediate professionals.

    New perspectives in social history

    This international workshop is the second part of a project initiated in September 2023 at the Center for History and Economics at the University of Cambridge on new perspectives and current challenges in social history. This first event helped to bring to the fore an issue that is now central to much social history work: the study of “belonging”. Rogers Brubaker's and Frederick Cooper's proposal (Beyond Identity, 2000) to disentangle the notion of “identity”, by distinguishing the logic of identification and forms of belonging, or categories of analysis and categories of practice, is still relevant today. But it has to be said that identification practices - particularly those of states - have been more widely studied than forms of belonging. Returning to this notion seems to us to be all the more relevant from a scientific point of view, given that political debates remain saturated with questions of identity.
