Nationality Policies and the Migratory Experience in the Early 20th Century

Revue “Diasporas. Circulations, Migrations, Histoire”

This thematic issue of Diasporas. Circulations, Migrations, Histoire journal aims to examine mechanisms of loss and deprivation of nationality, as well as operations aimed at requalifying the boundary between nationals and non-nationals through citizenship rights, while paying close attention to the effects of these procedures on migrants’ experiences. We welcome interdisciplinary contributions that incorporate theoretical and methodological approaches from diverse fields such as law, political science, geography, anthropology, and sociology, enriching historical perspectives. Articles must adopt an empirical methodological approach. We welcome proposals that focus on non-Western contexts.

Possibilities of the Contemporary Landscape

Contemporary representations of landscapes are evolving considering the new climatic, political, and technological challenges. The advent of the Anthropocene has led to a reevaluation of the relationship between humans and nature and, consequently, the mode of landscape representation, not only as a motif, but also as a form and construction. Additionally, the fragmentation of memories, the growth of new technologies, and the constant flux of images disrupt the way contemporary artists represent life. This workshop will compare different techniques and construction systems to think about the landscape as a motif, subject, and theoretical concept facing today's challenges.

Herrmann/Horner: two Hollywood giants in the service of the emotional?

This international symposium pays tribute to two Hollywood giants, Bernard Herrmann (1911-1975), who died on December 24, 1975 during post-production of Martin Scorcese's Taxi Driver, and James Horner (1953-2015), who was accidentally killed on June 22, 2015 while piloting one of his jets. This singular way of arousing visceral emotion or probing affects offers a possible convergence between these two Hollywood giants. Following the example of the emotional register, we could examine the various aspects of Bernard Herrmann's work that have received little attention, or focus in depth on the constituent elements of James Horner's style. These are just a few of the avenues open to us, but as this is first and foremost a tribute, the paths to be taken are multiple, depending on what the participants wish to highlight.

Cyber Strategy and Chinese Power: Emerging Threats and Geopolitical Issues

En 2024, la Chine augmente son budget militaire de 7,2 %, atteignant plus de 231 milliards de dollars. La cybersécurité devient une priorité stratégique mondiale, soulevant des inquiétudes quant aux nouvelles menaces et enjeux géopolitiques. La Chine utilise ses capacités cyber pour affirmer sa puissance, posant des questions sur la sécurité internationale et l’équilibre des pouvoirs. Cet appel à contributions s’intéresse aux capacités offensives et défensives dans des domaines comme l’Intelligence artificielle, la robotique et le quantum computing. Il s’agit également de questionner les relations de la Chine avec les États-Unis, l’Union européenne, la Russie et ses voisins asiatiques dans ce domaine. La dépendance technologique, comme par exemple l'implantation de la 5G par Huawei en Afrique, soulève de nombreuses préoccupations. Enfin, les enjeux éthiques et juridiques en matière de surveillance et d'espionnage nécessitent une vigilance accrue.

Tropical fruit sectors undergoing change

How are stakeholders in tropical fruit export sectors participating in and adapting to these changes in terms of market flows and consumption habits? How are relations between stakeholders being redefined? And what are the spatial implications of those changes? This call for papers welcomes studies based on what the French academia refers to as the “approche filière” but we are also interested in papers favoring a global value chain approach, this broad view of value chain taking into account the power relationships between upstream and downstream players, whatever the scale. This call for papers welcomes studies research into diverse geographical areas, based primarily on field surveys, and stemming from a range of disciplines studying relations to space.

Student press in resistance and dissidence in late 19th-20th century Central-Eastern and Southeastern Europe

From the 1880s to the 1980s, student dissidence/resistance in Central-Eastern and Southeastern Europe often came into contact with protest movements in other parts of the world, combining social protest with political and civic struggles. The aim of this conference is to study the dissident/resistant student press produced both in Central-Eastern and Southeastern Europe and by students from these countries abroad.

The double consciousness of quantification

Ethnographic approaches to world representation with numbers

Pour ce numéro spécial de la Revue Suisse d’Anthropologie Sociale et Culturelle, nous proposons de reprendre un point soulevé par Alain Desrosières (2008) lorsqu'il souligne les contradictions, dans l’approche statistique, entre une perspective « réaliste » (servant d'outil de pouvoir, de gouvernement ou de critique) et une perspective « conventionnaliste » (dans laquelle la « mise en variables » est elle-même prise dans un processus de production de savoirs politiques et historiques). Selon lui, cela pose un problème de « double conscience ». Comment cette apparente contradiction est-elle vécue, comprise, voire résolue par les acteurs auxquels elle est présentée ? Quelles opérations cela implique-t-il ? Quels sont les compromis qui émergent ?

Environmental philosophy

“Síntesis”, Philosophy Journal

“Is there a need for a new environmental ethic?” asks the article by the Australian philosopher Richard Routley. This statement, rooted in the inaugural reflections of Aldo Leopold in 1973, signifies the starting point of a new philosophical and moral exploration of the natural environment. This emerging field of applied ethics gains traction in social, political, legal, and international debates, compelling an increasing demand for philosophical insights. It challenges established relationships with the natural, material, cultural, and animal realms, prompting a call for a fundamental reconfiguration of our politics, institutions, justice systems, ethics, and our understanding of the subject. The primary object of this special issue is to spotlight the ongoing philosophical reflections on the environmental crisis prevalent in the Anthropocene society.

New Perspectives on Travel

Cultural Networks, Knowledge, Circulations, and Material Practices (19th and 20th Centuries)

In the last twenty years, there have been different approaches to the topic of travel from various disciplinary fields and perspectives. This symposium aims for a multidisciplinary approach to the topic of travel, understood as the deliberate movement of an individual through space, without being physically or psychologically forced or coerced. This symposium aims to be a space of dialogue and reflection about travel, its narratives, and its written and visual depictions. We aim to foster new approaches to travel understood in its specificity vis a vis the articulation of a disciplinary field (rather than its traditional understanding as a subsidiary object to other fields of study).

Bodies in Action Films and TV Series in the Digital Era

The idea for this conference arose from the renewed attention paid to the profilmic body in US-American audiovisual action productions since the mid-2010s, at a time when the transition to all-digital production favored the hegemony of other adventure genres centered on the prowess of virtual bodies. In the 1990s, action movies were largely characterized by the centrality of the physical body in motion, confronted with extraordinary constraints, and carried out by actors who performed the majority of their own stunts.

Experiential Approaches to Racism and Discrimination

Parallel to the development of structural and systemic understandings of racism, from the 1990s onwards, research, initially in English, drew increasingly attention to the complementarity and interest of an experiential approach to racism. Such interest appears to be twofold, both methodological or epistemic, and political. On the other hand, insofar as racism is defined in part by the impossibility it places on minorities to re-define their identity and subjective experience, “making minority voices heard” implies not only a methodological and ethical commitment but also holds heuristic powers, or even the key to transformative political struggles. This special issue offers to systematize such questionings through a transdisciplinary and comparative perspective.

A cultural history of libraries worldwide

"Revue d’histoire culturelle – XVIIIe-XXIe siècles" number 11

The study of libraries is situated within cultural history at the intersection of social history, history of knowledge, the history of imaginaries, political history, and the history of cultural practices. Their forms, their projects, their uses, and their representations have evolved alongside the societies that have financed, built and supported them. This issue of the Revue d’histoire culturelle XVIIIe-XXIe siècles, devoted to “the cultural history of libraries worldwide”, will consider this history from three points of view : the place of the library in fiction and the arts ; the library as a collective project – or counter-project ; the library as a social practice.

Modeling in economics and management

Practices, specificities and perspectives in the age of artificial intelligence

Le colloque vise à mettre en évidence les axes de recherche qui privilégient l’analyse et la critique des pratiques de la modélisation et des modèles de plus en plus utilisés dans l’analyse et l’évaluation économiques et dans la prise de décision des organisations. En outre, le colloque mettra l’accent sur l’importance des méthodes modernes de modélisation, de simulation, d’algorithmique et d’intelligence artificielle en concomitance avec la stratégie globale de la transition numérique des économies à l’échelle mondiale. Enfin, le colloque suscitera le débat sur l’importance de la construction collective d’outils de modélisation (ou d’adaptation de modèles existants) à l’échelle territoriale en tenant compte des nombreux enjeux et spécificités de types socio-économique, culturel ou environnemental, afin d’assister les acteurs et décisionnaires régionaux dans l’apport de réponses aux besoins économiques et de management territorial de grande portée.
