  The Changing City in Roman and Late Antique Africa: Actors and Scales of Transformation

  Ce colloque s’inscrit dans le renouvellement des études sur l’urbanisme provincial romain, stimulé par les approches postcoloniales et par une attention accrue portée aux acteurs locaux. Appliquée à l’Afrique du Nord, cette perspective trouve dans l’épigraphie un terrain d’expression privilégié : les mutations urbaines y sont souvent perceptibles à travers des changements de titulature, des réajustements institutionnels, l’apparition ou la disparition de collèges civiques, ou encore la transformation des pratiques honorifiques.

  Croisières : itinéraires juridiques et escales interdisciplinaires

  Cruises: Legal itineraries and interdisciplinary stopovers

  Depuis plusieurs décennies, le secteur des croisières connaît une expansion soutenue, soulevant des enjeux complexes qui dépassent largement le champ du seul droit maritime. L’essor du tourisme de croisière pose ainsi la question de la capacité du droit à encadrer un phénomène mondialisé, marqué par le gigantisme des navires, la multiplicité des acteurs, la densité des réglementations internationales et européennes, et qui suscite des tensions croissantes dans les territoires portuaires.

  Les habitants en assemblées (Europe, XIIe-XVIIIe siècle)

  Ce colloque international a pour but d’éclairer la place des assemblées d’habitants de la fin du Moyen Âge. À l’écart, en collaboration ou en opposition avec les gouvernements communaux, les assemblées d’habitants ont parfois été définies comme des lieux d’une « démocratie médiévale » en réunissant les chefs de famille d’un même lieu. Cette question permet d’aborder le rôle des assemblées au Moyen Âge et de la participation politique, et ainsi de renouveler notre compréhension des interactions entre gouvernement local et participation citoyenne médiévale. La dimension militaire de ces assemblées, de même que leur définition dans les textes juridiques et politiques pourront également être approfondies.

  Le travail im/mobile : circulations, dépendance et droits des travailleuses et travailleurs subalternes

  Revue « Sociologie du travail »

  This special issue of Sociologie du travail examines how subaltern workers are affected by im/mobility, understood as the multiple spatio-temporal assemblages that simultaneously constrain and delimit their movement and mobility practices. The aim is to rethink work as the product of a tension between the mobilisation of labour, the restriction of workers’ movements, and the agency of workers themselves. Mobility and its corollary, immobility, are thus conceived as a battlefield on which logics of coercion, control, mobilisation, and engagement confront and are reconfigured alongside the aspirations to autonomy of the most vulnerable workers.

  From America to France: Beaumarchais and the experience of Revolution

  In 2026, as the United States celebrates 250 years of independence and takes an increasing aggressive stance toward Europe, the Museum of the French Revolution – Domaine de Vizille and the LUHCIE laboratory at Grenoble Alpes University are organizing an international symposium aimed at rethinking the revolutionary origins of Franco-American relations through the figure and writings of Pierre Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais (1732-1799). This reinterpretation has been made possible by the recent acquisition by the Bibliothèque nationale de France of Beaumarchais' voluminous personal archives, as well as by the unprecedented digital publication of his entire surviving correspondence and manuscripts, undertaken as part of the collective and interdisciplinary program @rchibeau (2024-2029).

  Crafting Everyday Life. Art Manufactories in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries

  À l’occasion de la réunion de la Cité de la Céramique – Sèvres & Limoges et le Mobilier national sous l’appellation Manufactures nationales – Mobilier national & Sèvres le 1er janvier 2025, le Groupe de Recherche en Histoire de l’Art Moderne (GRHAM) a décidé d’orienter son colloque annuel sur les manufactures d’art des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Cette recomposition institutionnelle invite à relire l’histoire des manufactures, non comme un âge d’or figé, mais comme une histoire mouvante, marquée par des ruptures internes et des redéfinitions constantes des liens entre État, artistes et ouvriers.

  The Social Life of Names and Naming Practices in the Context of Migration

  Names are not mere labels but powerful tools through which people assert identity, are categorised, and negotiate relationships with states, institutions and communities. Whether they refer to people, places or businesses, names do things : they index belonging and difference, tell stories, record histories of mobility and settlement, and mediate social interaction. This topical collection uses names and naming practices to trace the reconfigurations that accompany migration.

  Punk (1976-2026). Memories and Commemorations of a Transmedial Culture

  Ce colloque bilingue (français et anglais), qui se déroulera du 24 au 26 novembre 2026, prend pour point de départ les 50 ans de « Anarchy in the UK », pour réfléchir sur la mémoire et la commémoration du punk, entendu ici comme un phénomène transnational et transmédiatique. Quelle configuration pour la nostalgie du no future ? Et quelle postérité pour un mouvement si ancré dans le DIY et l’analogique, au sein d’une société où la culture numérique est devenue dominante ?

  Minority Uses of the Past and Dynamics of Power in the Americas (19th–21st Centuries)

  This conference follows on from an initial meeting, which focused on the forms of uses of the past, to examine the consequences of these uses and their results, both on national history and on minorities, as well as on disciplines and their methods. Researchers from different disciplines are invited to reflect on the same subjects from the perspective of their methods: anthropologists, sociologists, geographers, historians, specialists in literary studies, cultural studies, art historians, and linguists. The following four themes may guide proposals for papers.

  Ordinary justice and everyday policing in colonial context (French Empire, 18th-20th centuries)

  Justice and policing are complementary instruments in the hands of a colonial administration characterised by the accumulation of judicial and executive powers in the French empire. In order to move beyond the opposition between the disciplinary approach to colonial rule centred on "indigénat" and its “coercive networks” and a social history of justice sensitive to the relationship between users and the judicial institution in a context of legal pluralism, this conference considers justice and policing as local institutions that shape everyday life and are part of actors' ordinary practices.

  The Nature of Anarchism

  Exploring Complicity and Conflict in the Relations between Anarchists and Environmentalists (19th–21st Centuries)

  This multidisciplinary conference aims to explore the relations between anarchism(s) and ecology(ies) from the 19th century to the present day. It seeks to fill a historiographical blind spot by examining the richness of anarchist ‘environmental reflexivity’, from precursors such as Kropotkin and Reclus to their contemporary reconfigurations. Anarchism's historical rejection of centralised power structures and the productivism of the ‘machine age’ makes it one of the political traditions most in tune with current ecological imperatives. By revisiting these affinities and tensions, the conference will offer new insights into understanding social movements fighting for environmental justice.
