    Fantasies of France: Exploring Transatlantic Misunderstandings from the 18th Century to the Present Days

    This one-day symposium for PhD students and early-career researchers aims to reflect on the French fantasies of North American authors and, conversely, on the North American fantasies of their French receptors and intermediaries. Participants are encouraged to think about the ways in which misunderstandings shaped the transatlantic literary relations which developed between North America and France from the 18th century up to the present days. The symposium hopes to foster discussions about these misunderstandings along three lines of investigation : that of literary criticism, with a focus on the emergence of a ‘fantasy of France’ in the works of North American authors (and on the disenchantments and surprises that go hand in hand with fantasies) ; that of the French reception of these same writers ; and, finally, that of translation.

    Métaphores de la guerre

    War Metaphors

    Le débat toujours croissant sur la question de savoir si la propension à la guerre est une caractéristique innée des êtres humains ou, au contraire, une construction sociopolitique et un phénomène culturel, a suscité plus de partisans des deux camps que de réponses exclusives. Ce numéro de la Revue de philologie et de communication interculturelle s’intéressera à la guerre à travers les croyances, les métaphores et les termes qui lui sont associés. Les propositions pourront traiter de ces sujets à travers la littérature, les arts visuels, les études culturelles, les études sur le genre et l’identité, la philosophie, l’anthropologie, la linguistique ou encore l’acquisition des langues.

    Production, financing, distribution, circulation and reception (XIX°-XX° centuries)

    Long ignored by specialists, the foreign-language press exists in most countries at the margins of the global media system.

    Housing Caring Land

    Housing through Gender Studies

    Ce colloque entend nouer un dialogue entre les théories du care, la sociologie du logement, l’anthropologie de l’habitat et les études de genre. Quelles sont les implications d’ordre éthique, épistémologique, méthodologique et théorique d’un tel croisement disciplinaire ? En quoi le care permet-il de questionner la binarité d’espaces et d’activités habituellement pensés comme relevant de deux sphères distinctes : le public et le privé ? L’analyse du logement sous l’angle du care implique-t-elle nécessairement de « faire du terrain en féministe » (Clair, 2016) ? Dans quelle mesure l’application du cadre conceptuel du care au champ des housing studies permet-elle de saisir les ressorts socio-spatiaux et transcalaires de l’articulation entre travail productif et travail reproductif ? Quelle est la portée heuristique de penser les pratiques et modes de production et de gestion du logement et de ses abords au prisme des processus de division sociale, sexuelle et raciale du travail domestique ?

    In the manufacture of mobility regimes in Africa

    In Africa, debates on the development of migration policies and borders are at the core of many studies. Over the past two decades, the transformation of mobility regimes, the strengthening of borders and the emergence of multiple actors in migration “management” have been addressed mainly through the process of externalisation of borders and the role played by actors of the international migration government. Without questioning the asymmetric and postcolonial dimensions of African-European state relations, this topical collection aims to take a different and innovative look at the historical, social and political trajectories of African states and societies in the government of mobility. It thus aims to interrogate the ways in which a wide variety of actors, both state and non-state, invest, contest and reuse the socio-political spaces of migration government through their practices, discourses or mobilities.

    L’exploitation des ressources naturelles et la question socio-environnementale sur la bande sahélienne

    Africa is one of the less developed continent in the world. If some of the reasons of this situation are historical, diverse geographical causes could also be mobilised to explain  the situation. This project invites to analyse socio-environmental issues on the sahelean corridor from the west to the east. More than 10 subsaharan countries are impacted by the situation. The concerned area is recognised as a fragile zone due to its semi-arid climate which reduces the local agropastoral productivity and exposes the population to poverty. Two kind of natural resources exploition are practiced in the concerned space: communal and none aggressive exploitation and industrial but aggressive exploitation. These industrial exploitations povoke new and more complicated challenges because the are reducing farming space and making very dangerous pollution. The reality poses the general problem of natural resources exploitation in fragile spaces. Thus, this project ambition to analyse the place of these resources exploitation in the socio-environnemental situation that face the sahelean zone.

    Social Movements

    Convergences of Popular Dance, Justice, and Media

    Au vingtième et au début du vingt-et-unième siècles, les mouvements pour la justice sociale ont souvent mis en avant les mouvements des corps : pour attirer l’attention sur les inégalités et la violence, pour célébrer l’altérité face aux régimes hégémoniques de la suprématie blanche, du patriarcat, de l’hétéronormativité et du capacitisme, et pour manifester des modes plus justes de communauté et de socialité. Les danses populaires, définies au sens large comme les danses exécutées par le peuple et/ou qui sont populaires dans les médias de masse, ont animé les mouvements activistes contre le racisme, la misogynie et les projets coloniaux de l’empire et du capitalisme néolibéral.

    Slavery and Post-Slavery in the Arabian Peninsula

    At the crossroads of literature and social sciences

    Les pays du Golfe sont parmi les derniers pays au monde à avoir aboli l’esclavage légal. Or, malgré la centralité de l’esclavage dans l’histoire sociale de la péninsule Arabique, son étude reste très peu investie par les sciences sociales. Face au vide historiographique et anthropologique, la fiction contemporaine s'est emparée de cette question. Ce colloque a ainsi pour ambition d’explorer les voies d’un dialogue entre littérature et sciences sociales, en confrontant la vision historiographique de l’esclavage dans la péninsule Arabique à la place de celui-ci dans l’imaginaire littéraire. S’inscrivant dans une perspective comparatiste, il souhaite approfondir les débats autour de « l’esclavage oriental » et de ses résurgences contemporaines afin de proposer de nouvelles grilles de lecture au-delà de l’historiographie de l’esclavage aux Amériques ou aux Caraïbes.

    Questioning Technology in a Time of Global Upheaval

    This thematic dossier puts forward the hypothesis that technology today represents a space of differentiation and a place for negotiating plural and conflicting interests, with a direct impact on material production, the organisation of work and labour, and the definition of space. Why and how is technology defined in contemporary architectural, urban and territorial production? What political and social projects does technology embody? What are the issues and controversies involved? To further explore this hypothesis and to help answer these questions, this call for papers aims to build an open debate on an international scale, to shed light on current controversies and to question the place and role of technology in a time of global upheaval. Papers may focus on one or more of the following topics.

    Frontières, marges et périphéries en langue, art et littérature

    The notions of frontiers, margins and peripheries are frequently tackled from different research perspectives. Closely interrelated, these concepts pave the way for understanding the idea of limits, and to explore spaces of transition or contact between diverse cultures, literary genres, styles, modes of expression, linguistic and artistic forms, etc. Researchers are invited to question the notions of frontiers, margins, and peripheries from multidisciplinary perspectives.

What were the main theoretical and methodological orientations of this analytical model? Where did they find their origins? What were their distinguishing features ? What did it mean to be a diffusionist historian of religions? What were the guiding principles, the underpinning worldviews, and the scientific values at stake for those who propounded diffusionist theories?

    Renewal and transformation of sport participation issues for people with disabilities

    Profitant de l’occasion apportée par les Jeux olympiques et paralympiques à Paris en 2024, ce numéro de la revue Aequitas souhaite porter un regard attentif aux évolutions qui touchent tout autant le sport compétitif de haut niveau que les diverses formes d’activités sportives, physiques ou motrices de loisir pour les personnes ayant des incapacités. Ainsi, qu’en est-il de la transformation du regard sur la participation sociale à travers la participation des sportifs dans le domaine international du para-sport, dans celui du sport pour tous les publics spécifiques, particuliers ou vulnérables, de l’handisport et du sport adapté ou encore du sport partagé, collaboratif ou participatif dans des institutions particulières ? À cette question de la participation sportive qui apparaît désormais moins comme une question relative à l’éducation, la rééducation ou même la santé que comme une question de droit, répond en écho à celle de la visibilité des personnes ayant des incapacités dans le sport.
