    African Revolutionary Film: Archives in the Making

    Journal “Sources. Materials Fieldwork in African Studies”

    We are delighted to announce this call for papers for a special issue on revolutionary African films made during decolonization (1950s-1970s), their role in shaping the social lives of African viewers both then and now, and their perilous and complex position as archival sources. This special issue seeks to gather scholarship on African revolutionary filmmaking and African film and media archives from across academic disciplines and intellectual contexts. We use the term “revolutionary” broadly here to denote the radical, multifaceted projects of transforming society, culture and discourses from colonial rule in ways that both genuinely sought emancipation through the “disruption of existing categories” as well as those projects that embedded authoritarian politics under the sign of revolution.

    The spatial, Economic and Social Dimensions of Pandemics and Environmental Risks, & the Pillars for developing an Integrated National Strategy for Crisis management

    The 8th National Conference of Young Geographers

    The third decade of the third millennium has been marked by the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, which has affected countries in diverse ways. These countries have seen an increase in confirmed cases, human and economic losses, and political and geostrategic impacts. The pandemic has also had social, health, and educational implications. The crisis has led to a return to restriction procedures and the closure of borders, and has forced countries to focus more on their own needs. Governments have struggled to deal with the pandemic and have called on their armies for help and mobilized parts of civil society.

    Food Crises: Challenges, Innovations and Sustainable Change

    From prehistoric times to the present, crises relating to military conflicts, climatic hazards, health challenges, harvest failures, economic decline, environmental change, geopolitical conflicts and many other factors have affected food systems in complex and varying ways, depending on specific constellations, local resilience and the timescales involved. The distinctive aim of this conference is to examine the “creative” and “constructive” potential of the relationship, specifically the extent to which crises can trigger innovation and sustainable change within food systems.

    Lords and Masters : domination in medieval Normandy (11th-15th centuries)

    Taking inspiration from Robert Fossier’s important questions on who dominated the territory and inhabitants (“la terre et les hommes”) of medieval Normandy, we are keen to reopen major historiographical debates on feudalism and serfdom. Our conference aims to stimulate new reflections on the notion of domination. We take the term to include not only the actual control of people and/or territories, but also strategies implemented by the dominators to legitimize and justify the social order over which they ruled. Through reinterpretation of political, economic, social and religious arenas, considered together, this conference positions itself within the cursus of recent works on the fabric of power in medieval societies. It aims to question, and perhaps redefine, the concept of domination. Whilst domination contributed much to social hierarchy, other formative aspects –  such as cooperation, negotiation and contestation – should not be overlooked.

    Espaces périphériques et fragmentations internes : proximités géographiques et discontinuités sociales

    Les territoires périphériques et ultrapériphériques face aux risques majeurs. Le retour de la distance

    Les territoires périphériques et ultrapériphériques se caractérisent par un éloignement certain des espaces métropolitains et des grands centres de commandement. Cela se traduit par des formes d’isolement, de marginalisation, et par une plus faible intégration à l’économie globale. La proximité n’est alors ni simple à définir, ni une protection contre les inégalités et les injustices spatiales. Elle reste un enjeu contemporain et futur. Dans cette perspective, sont attendues des propositions mettant en valeur ces fragmentations sur un de ces espaces périphériques ou ultrapériphériques. La proposition peut être faite à l’échelle de l’espace ou à une échelle plus fine, mais toujours interactive. D’autres propositions peuvent s’intéresser aux politiques mises en œuvre, avec les effets espérés.

    Clio, 60 (2024 – volume 2)

    This issue of Clio wishes to historicize the gender of speech in interaction with varying social spaces, from the most intimate to the most political. Our ambition is less to question the gender of language as a whole (feminist and queer research has analyzed language as both an object of power relations and the means of producing, transmitting and naturalizing symbolic domination, as well as a space and a tool for action). Instead, we would like to address the gender of speech and of the people involved in communication, without focusing on the specific dimension of the voice.

    Cultural studies and Cultural History, from elsewhere

    « Revue d'histoire culturelle » n°7 (2023-2)

    À l’heure où les cultural studies ont essaimé dans le monde, la multiplicité des approches et des démarches ne laisse d’interroger. Le prochain dossier de la rubrique « Épistémologie en débats » de la Revue d'Histoire culturelle questionnera la manière dont les historiographies étrangères ont pu acclimater les cultural studies et s’emparer d’éléments tels que l’entrée thématique par les groupes sociaux ; l’attention particulière accordée au regard et à l’objet culturel ; les protocoles d’enquêtes, notamment une méthode héritée des études littéraires et des enquêtes orales collectives, pragmatiques autant qu’empiriques, ou encore de manière plus frontale et plus politique, la capacité, l’agency, d’un groupe social à s’approprier un contenu culturel.

    Gold: wealth or curse?

    Revue « Afrique contemporaine »

    Recent years have brought a dramatic upsurge in Africa’s gold output – boosting the export earnings and goverment revenues of producer countries, fuelling hopes of additional resources for development. But many also fear there could be negative spillovers, particularly in eroding stability and good governance, the so-called “resource curse”. These are just two facets of what is a wide debate debate, as the gold sector has multiple economic, political, environmental and symbolic ramifications. This issue of Afrique contemporaine aims to provide studies on different aspects, focusing as much as possible on the link between gold and the various forms of conflict.

    Reflexivity and Autonomous Training: Realities, Reflection and Innovation

    La pandémie a révélé la précarité de plusieurs systèmes, notamment celui de l’éducation et de la formation. Du jour au lendemain, enseignants et apprenants avaient à s’acclimater aux technologies de l’information et de la communication (TIC) et aux nouveaux canaux pour enseigner et apprendre. N’ayant pas été formés à l’apprentissage autogéré, les apprenants se sentaient en déréliction ; les enseignants, eux, ne faisant pas travailler leurs publics en « lâcher-prise » et étant habitués à construire les savoirs dans l’interaction, peinaient à réajuster leur planification des cours. Ce colloque pluridisciplinaire se veut l’occasion d’élucider et d’approfondir certains concepts gravitant autour de la réflexivité dans différents domaines. Il aspire à mettre en lumière des expériences et/ou des recherches qui visent l’étude de la réflexivité dans la formation du sujet (jeune ou adulte) autonome.
