La gloria de los tatarabuelos/as
Memoria, linaje y ley Memoria, linaje y ley en el proceso de legitimación en el proceso de legitimación de la monarquía de Castilla (siglos XII a XIV)
Ce colloque international se propose d’explorer la mémoire familiale et les procédés de légitimation mis en place par les monarques castillans et leur entourage entre le XIIe et le XIVe siècles, en interrogeant les raisons et les modalités de la promotion, par les rois et les reines, de représentations d’ordre juridique et/ou symbolique en lien avec l’héritage des aïeux. La réflexion portera sur le fonctionnement et la puissance des mécanismes qui fondent la légitimité du pouvoir et le rendent acceptable et efficient.

Uses of the Past: Minority Experiences in Action in the Americas
Depuis le début du 21ème siècle, les Amériques connaissent un moment mémoriel particulièrement investi par les groupes dont l’histoire a été invisibilisée. Ils portent, dans l’espace public, contestations, demandes de reconnaissance, voire de réparation. Ce colloque engage une réflexion sur les usages du passé lorsqu’ils sont mobilisés par des membres de minorités ethnoraciales, qu’il s’agisse de contester une histoire nationale, de chercher à s’y inclure ou d’écrire une histoire de la minorité.

A Transnational History of Spanish Humanitarianism in a Global Context from the First World War to the 1920s
Building on the dynamic initiated during a workshop held in 2024 on the humanitarian institution created in 1915 by Alfonso XIII–the European War Office–, this conference seeks to gather separate initiatives and to bring together specialists to address historiographical gaps concerning Spanish actions during the war. The conference will examine these actions from a global perspective in the context of the 1920s by comparing them with the actions of other institutions and neutral countries, such as Sweden, Denmark, the Vatican and the ICRC.

Récits pour enfants sous le franquisme
Littérature, médias et sources primaires enfantines (1939-1975)
Comment la répression des enfants sous le franquisme émerge-t-elle à travers les récits ? Comment se traduit-elle dans les narrations pour enfants écrites ou orales, littéraires ou iconographiques, censurées ou non ? Lors de cette journée d’études, nous proposons d’interroger les récits écrits pour les enfants sous le franquisme depuis des méthodologies variées, qui peuvent se croiser.

Precarious housing in the Global South
Public interventions and residents' expériences
This call for abstracts aims to highlight the growth and complexity of precarious housing in a context of increasing urban inequality. Far from being reduced to marginality or poverty, these spaces represent a third of the world's population and play an active role in urban dynamics, combining vulnerability, inventiveness and collective capacities. In the face of often repressive or insufficiently coordinated policies, it calls for recognition of their diversity, their essential function in the urban fabric, and the importance of interdisciplinary reflection based on field surveys, via the following thematic areas: theme 1 - Ambivalent effects of urban public action, theme 2 - Residents' practices, mobilisation and daily resistance, theme 3 - Institutional, symbolic and criminal violence: forms, effects and social responses.

Maintaining public goods in an era of austerity
Journal Espaces et Sociétés No. 200
Local government service budgets have continued to be cut, exacerbating the social and environmental vulnerabilities that municipalities now have to manage with limited resources. The purpose of this dossier is to focus on the spatial dimension of the continuance and evolution of public goods in a context of austerity. In particular, we encourage ethnographic and situated perspectives that consider top-down political experiments and bottom-up urban practices and their convergence in the protection, maintenance and regeneration of public goods. The goal is to give space to studies that investigate the relationship between austerity, public goods and care practices.

Emerging Practices in Technologies and Communication for Development
Digital technologies constitute a central factor in the transformation of contemporary societies, with artificial intelligence representing one of their most significant vectors. They simultaneously carry promises of innovation and participation, and act as vectors of dependency, exclusion, and renewed forms of domination. The aim is to explore the tensions that run through the imagination, uses and challenges of artificial intelligence and advanced digital technologies, combining critical approaches, field studies and theoretical perspectives.

Laboreal, July 2026
Since the 19th century, the cyclical crises of our industrial societies have fuelled multiple initiatives aimed at envisioning another possible world. Yet recent decades have revealed a state of profound crisis that leads us to doubt, more radically than ever, the validity and sustainability of our ways of thinking and acting. Our futures are at stake, our models of society are being strained under the pressure of climate change, social and societal upheavals, public health crises, and political instability. In this context, human labour is an undeniable issue. In these times of transition, ways of thinking about and acting on work increasingly integrate the utopian dimension, which underlies the evolution of both the worlds of work and communities of life. This issue will therefore be an opportunity to take stock of the state of the art.

Dimensions spatiales des pratiques d’asile (trans)nationales dans les littératures allemande, française et espagnole des XXe et XXIe siècles
Le colloque explore l’articulation entre asile et espace à travers le prisme des études culturelles et littéraires. À la lumière du Spatial Turn, de la Critical Geography, de la Feminist Geography et de la Postcolonial Spatial Theory, l’espace peut être compris comme le produit d’une pratique socialement construite et dynamique. Comment les littératures allemande, française et espagnole des XXe et XXIe siècles localisent-elles et matérialisent-elles les pratiques d’asile ? Quelles institutions sont mises en exergue et quelles esthétiques suscitent-elles ?

Questioning the formal and the informal through night work in the Americas and the Caribbean
The international conference aims to explore the tensions between formal and informal night work, whether paid or unpaid, in the Americas. The social division of labor implements and reproduces plural and complex social relationships, which appear to be reconfigured in the context of night work.

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.

Graphic and audio-visual representations of extreme violence intended for a young audience
Since the 1980s, graphic productions (comics, graphic novels, albums) or audiovisual productions (animated films, documentary fiction, documentaries for children or adolescents, etc.) have experienced a certain renewed interest, thanks, among other things, to the combination of narrative and graphics, which allows readers to move from one level of reading to another, thus feeding two distinct but complementary levels of reading. We propose to look at all these productions (graphic and audio-visual) that are aimed at children and adolescents to tell them about the past and the violence that affected their parents or grandparents, or indirectly the history of their family or community, or, more broadly, their country.

The Accident Beyond Risk. An Anthropology of Interruptions
Revue « Terrain » n° 86
This issue of Terrain proposes to explore forms of accidentality that lie outside industrial and insurance-based norms of the “risk society.” Through ethnographic, historical, or documentary inquiries, the aim is to approach the accident as a lens revealing social tensions, material imbalances, technical arrangements, or subterranean affects. Far from being a mere rupture, the accident here becomes a heuristic operator—a revelator of world orders.

Health, agriculture and food in island territories: ecological, political and social issues
This dossier for the journal Etudes Caribéennes aims to examine, from an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective, the tensions and alternatives that exist within island agri-food systems. It is aimed at anyone working on issues of food sovereignty, political ecology, environmental justice, public health or the promotion of local knowledge in island contexts – whether French-speaking, Spanish-speaking, English-speaking or Creole-speaking. We welcome contributions based on rigorous field research, open to multidisciplinarity and attentive to the social, environmental and cultural dynamics specific to island worlds.

Self-writing in the Caribbean context: contrasting perspectives
Self-writing in Caribbean literature is shaped by the region’s rich and complex tapestry of cultural and linguistic influences, as well as by the enduring legacy of colonialism in its many forms. Our conference aims to address the region’s linguistic and cultural diversity and attempts a comparative approach to self-writing across different Caribbean traditions.

Health, Agriculture and Food in Island Territories: Ecological, Political and Social Issues
This dossier aims to examine the specific configurations of island agri-food systems through an interdisciplinary approach combining geography, sociology, anthropology, public health, political ecology and political science. It focuses equally on agricultural policies and social practices, representations and conflicts of use, and the knowledge circulating in island agricultural communities. It welcomes contributions on all island territories, whether French-speaking or not, independent or not, in a postcolonial or dependent context.

Mourning and Memory in Latin America. Social Emergencies, Narrative and Artistic Elaborations
« Amerika » numéro 31
Au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un élan démocratique se fait jour en Amérique latine. Il s’exprime au travers d’élections, mais se manifeste aussi dans des mouvements sociaux ou des révoltes. En lien avec les tensions générées par la guerre froide qui favorisent les coups d’État dans différents pays, des dictatures se mettent toutefois en place dès les années 60. Trouvant leur justification dans la doctrine de la « sécurité nationale », ces dictatures sont fondées sur le contrôle social, la persécution politique et l’usage massif d’une violence étatique. Mais des stratégies de résistance se développent, variables selon les contextes politiques et socio-économiques des pays. Quelles mémoires, artistiques et narratives, découlent de ces événements ?
