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.

Conference, symposium - History
Le colloque vise à analyser les relations entre les groupes professionnels et le politique dans le contexte de transition vers la démocratie en Espagne et au Portugal dans les années 1960-1970. Il se focalise sur les professions libérales et intellectuelles. Sans déterminer directement la chute des régimes autoritaires de la péninsule Ibérique, ces groupes ont contribué à remettre en cause leur légitimité et à influencer les formes et les modalités de la démocratisation.

L’objectif est de mieux comprendre les relations entre le politique et les sphères du savoir en contexte autoritaire et dans les phases de changement politique. En se focalisant sur les « professions intellectuelles », il s’agit d’approfondir les possibilités et les cadres de l’opposition aux dictatures et leur participation au processus de transition et de démocratisation en Espagne et au Portugal dans les années 1960-1970. En raison de leur autonomie et de leur capital social, ces professions ont des capacités de résistance et de protestations plus élevées que d’autres groupes sociaux. L’objectif est aussi d’explorer l’évolution des relations aux pouvoirs autoritaires de groupes appartenant à la bourgeoisie ou aux classes moyennes, qui ont pu bénéficier de positions privilégiées ou ont soutenu ces régimes, avant de s’en distancier.

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?

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.

La « Révolution des Œillets », révolution portugaise et mondiale
Dossier spécial de la revue Lusotopie sur le Cinquantenaire du 25 avril 1974
Le 24 avril 1974 au soir, les désormais célèbres « capitaines d’avril » commencèrent leur coup d’État au nom d’un programme simple, celui des « trois D » : décoloniser, démocratiser, développer. Il s’agissait surtout de mettre fin à près de quatorze ans de guerre coloniale, une guerre qui ne pouvait pas être gagnée militairement, qui isolait le Portugal sur la scène internationale, brûlait près la moitié du budget de l’État et poussait la jeunesse à prendre le chemin de l’exil pour éviter de partir au combat. Cinquante ans après le 25 avril 1974, Lusotopie publie un dossier spécial pour étudier les aspects de cette révolution qui pourraient avoir été sous-étudiés.

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.

A Amazônia brasileira: problemas e desafios
La Amazonia internacional engloba nueve países de América del Sur: Bolivia, Brasil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guayana, Guayana Francesa, Perú, Surinam y Venezuela, con un territorio de aproximadamente siete millones de kilómetros cuadrados. Según los datos del Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), la Amazonia brasileña comprende unos cinco millones de kilómetros cuadrados, lo que corresponde a cerca de la mitad del país. Con ese fin, el Centro de Estudios Brasileños organiza el II Congreso Internacional de Ciencias Sociales y Humanas, dedicado en esta ocasión a “La Amazonia brasileña: problemas y desafíos”, abriendo así un espacio de debate multidisciplinar con el fin de aportar luz sobre un tema complejo y de difícil solución.

Black Lives Matter: a transnational movement
Revue « Esclavages et post-esclavages / Slaveries and post-slaveries »
The aim of this special number is therefore to bring together articles analysing the growth of Black Lives Matter (BLM) to a transnational movement. Contributions should show awareness of the concrete modes of circulation and appropriation, and to the repercussions of campaigns linked to BLM, but also of the historical and political ruptures and continuities implied and explained by them. Contributions bearing on the role of new information and communications technologies (NITC) and social networks, especially in the spreading of images (videos of police violence, artworks etc), and their role in the transnational development of the movement will be given close attention.

Decolonial studies. From theory to practice
Abya Yala, Caribbean, Africa, Europe, Asia
The arrival and emergence of studies, research or reflections claiming to be “decolonial” in Europe or in formerly colonised societies (particularly in Africa) should not be reduced to another anachronistic or nativist intellectual mode seeking to simplify or replay colonial encounters as certain authors or journalists (especially in France) think. If these studies seem recent to the French-speaking reader, and more particularly to the French reader, it should be pointed out that they stem from a Latin-American intellectual critical tradition (dialoguing with several intellectual streams such as the theory of dependence, liberation theology, studies on the world-system) and that several publications by Latin-American or Latin-American researchers have been describing them for several decades.

Thinking the Latin American right wings
IVth International Congress
The IVth International Congress Thinking the Latin American right wings follows the three previous ones held in France (2014), Argentina (2016) and Brazil (2018), which have permitted the constitution of a community of researchers working on Latin American right-wings. Several specialists from different countries and disciplines have joined in this network, in order to promote projects and studies on this theme, and stimulated the development of new issues related to this political family. The use of various methodologies such as the analysis of political traditions and cultures, representations and imaginaries, identities, networks, sensitivities and memories have made it possible to consolidate a field of study that has become relevant to understand current Latin American political scene.

Communisms and political dissent
The idea of communism and the great hope brought by the Russian revolution of 1917 marked, as a utopia and as political praxis, the contemporary social thought and the International Workers' Movement, between heated quarrels and endless controversies, sowing dissensions, verbal wars, profound sectarianisms and irreconcilable divergencies. Distinct societal models, organisational conceptions and political cultures have developed like different branches of a common trunk, becoming autonomous and crystallising.

Fields of collaboration in contemporary art practices
Can all art be considered collaborative? What has motivated so many artists, in recent decades, to organize in collectives and participate in collaborative projects? Does collaboration in the arts play a major role in redefining the art world and in the production of new subjectivities? How do collaborative art practices challenge the myths of creative genius and artistic individuality?

When women film: the documentary in the Iberian peninsula and in the Latin-American continent
Ce colloque international et interuniversitaire aura pour objet l'étude de la production documentaire réalisée par des femmes des pays de la péninsule ibérique ou du continent latino-américain. Il a pour visée de repenser, dans une perspective transdisciplinaire, les cadres épistémologiques de l’analyse de l’image documentaire. Il réfléchira aux manières dont les films documentaires, maintenus dans une double marginalité, celle du documentaire et celle due au statut des femmes, ont agi comme des opérations d’intelligibilité du monde.

Insularities and enclaves in colonial and post-colonial circumstances
Crossings, conflicts and identitarian constructions (15th - 21st centuries)
Historically, archipelagos were considered as rehearsal spaces for new social constructions. Since colonization and, afterwards, colonialism and imperialism, many of them evolved in association with the strengthening of international networks, while others did not escape isolation and forced unequal integration in different spaces. On the other hand, enclaves were the outcome of historical circumstances, often externally decided, which prompted some degree of insularity regarding the immediate geographical surroundings. When those territories did not become independent, there were demands for autonomy or, at least, some underlying emancipatory and anti-colonialist feelings. Even when these feelings did not mobilize relevant segments of the population, they disclose the alterity – above all cultural – in regard to sovereignty.

Thinking and conducting the transformation of work
The contribution of the ergological approach and the works of Yves Schwartz
The ergological approach intends to the co-production of knowledge with the aim of transforming work and more generally the social life. As stated by the scientific project of the Workshop, “the ergological approach, in its history and in its issues, is a priori a subject of interest for everyone, each exploring in its own way the intricacies of human life, but also anyone who wants to think about its own activity and that of others, to reconsider the ways of doing and taking action, of opening new perspectives in ways of working, acting and living”. Yet this approach, which is particularly needed nowadays, is insufficiently known and sometimes considered complex. This is the state of play at the origin of this international workshop for which this call for papers is published.
