Democracy at University: Voicing Choices
In France, as abroad, questions of democracy span multiple social fields. The University appears as a privileged place for observation and reflection. As a space for academic and civic education, for the transmission of knowledge and collective experimentation, it also constitutes a laboratory for democratic practices.

Indigenous Peoples in Global Politics
Monções: Revista de Relações Internacionais da UFGD
This special issue aims to gather contributions from researchers studying indigenous peoples in international politics. We particularly – though not exclusively – encourage submissions on topics such as: How does the political action of indigenous peoples yield pressure on traditional concepts such as politics, sovereignty, international cooperation, and global governance? To what extent and through what mechanisms do these practices subvert or are co-opted by the hegemonic structures of the international system? In what ways do indigenous philosophies and worldviews challenge the colonial logics of the Anthropocene, extractivism, and the geopolitics of knowledge?

Villes en temps de crises démocratiques et climatiques
Dialogues franco-lusophones
Depuis plus de dix ans, les dialogues franco-lusophones permettent de promouvoir des échanges scientifiques bilingues sur les enjeux urbains contemporains dans les aires culturelles de langues française et portugaise. Chaque édition interroge, dans une perspective interdisciplinaire, internationale et comparative, le devenir des villes, aux nords comme aux suds, confrontées aux enjeux globaux et locaux, qu’ils soient climatiques, sociaux, économiques, politiques, culturels. Dans la continuité d’une approche critique et dans l’objectif de consolider des récits communs sur les défis des villes au XXIe siècle, l’édition 2023 questionnera les dynamiques urbaines en temps de crises démocratiques et climatiques.

Aubervilliers
L’élection de Jair Bolsonaro, en 2018, a suscité des craintes sur les possibles impacts négatifs de son mandat sur l’environnement. En pleine campagne, il avait notamment assuré que plus « un centimètre carré de terre ne serait octroyé aux indigènes », et qu’il pourrait mettre fin au ministère de l’Environnement. Plus de trois ans après le début de son mandat, peu de voix s’élèvent pour défendre son bilan environnemental, très largement critiqué au Brésil comme à l’international. Alors qu’une nouvelle campagne se prépare pour les élections prévues en octobre 2022, nous proposons de donner la parole à des chercheurs et chercheuses issu·e·s de plusieurs champs disciplinaires, afin de revenir sur l’ensemble du mandat de l’actuel président et de décrypter les changements intervenus sur la période et leurs effets.

Thinking rights in Latin America in the 20th century
This conference purports to think about the right-wing in twentieth-century Latin America. We shall seek to discover whether the current Latin American right-wing movements are merely the prolongation of XIXth century conservatism, or if a series of events might explain the emergence of new actors in the XXth century. This will enable us to enquire into which geographical scale - national or continental - is relevant when examining this concept. We expect papers from scholars in various social sciences, based on monographic and comparative historical examples. Our purpose is to historicize the concept and the object.
