Imagining Italy

Space, Gender and Discourse in Women’s Writing (1789-1914)

This conference will explore women writers’ contributions to the representation of Italy in Europe, from the 19th century to the outbreak of the First World War. At a time when women were increasingly present in the public sphere, Italy was for them a source of particular interest and attention, as women writers began to contribute to a discourse that had previously been predominantly restricted to men. Through a cross-cultural and comparative perspective, the conference aims to intersect representations of space and notions of gender, in order to trace the construction and reappropriation of Italy by women authors.

Crossed perspectives on the new wave of coups d’état in French-speaking black Africa

Since 2012, putsch in French-speaking black Africa have reasserted themselves as an essential paradigm for the analysis of political life where almost all states have at least twenty years of multi-party electoral experience. Field data reveals at least six successful military coups between August 2020 and January 2022; proven risks in at least six other countries where new coup mechanisms are emerging, like what some call “constitutional coups”. How can we describe what is happening in French-speaking black Africa? This call for contributions for a collective work aims to provide information on the taxonomy and technologies of this new wave of putsch thanks to cross-sectional comparison between French-speaking black Africa and elsewhere; diachronic comparison (yesterday and today) and normative comparison (what is done and what should be done).

Contemporary Societies Facing Risks

Contexts, actors, experiences, and response stakes

By the midst of the the twentieth century, the world had become the scene of profound social and historical transformations sustained technological and ecological developments. Such transformations often testify to the transition from the first modernity of an industrial aspect to the second modernity, usually characterized by “cosmic risks”. Consistent with these transitions, the concept of risk has witnessed remarkable developments, evolving into an integrated approach adopted in the analysis of the profound changes in industrial society whereby the unforeseen consequences of human actions have become more frequent, intense, and influential, posing a threat to human existence altogether. Diverse scientific studies addressing the issue of risk(s) across different fields point to the structural and complex crisis accompanying the “second modernity”.

What future for African integration?

Since the creation in 1963 of the Organization of African Unity (forerunner of today's African Union), bilateral and multilateral intergovernmental cooperation initiatives have continued to multiply across the African continent, to the point where there are now over a hundred initiatives and institutions covering a wide range of fields: political, economic, commercial, customs, educational, cultural.

Digitization in Education: Risks, Values and Opportunities

The digitization of education is at a turning point, raising complex issues. Among the major concerns are the social and human risks associated with the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) and other technologies in decision-making and education. Educators need to consider the integration of these tools into their practices: how can they enrich teaching, what are the implications for assessment, and what is the role of the teacher in this context? The 14^th edition of the Ticemed3 international colloquium invites researchers in information and communication sciences and in education and training to engage in a dialogue with their peers in computer science, from a North-South perspective. The aim of Ticemed will be to examine the risks and opportunities associated with the increasing digitization of educational practices, from a technological, ethical and/or cultural angle.

When the Night Comes

Opportunities, limits and interpretation of the night from the Antiquity to the contemporary age

Everything about darkness differs according to a wide range of factors including historical age, society, gender, social class, occupations. In this sense, we mean everything that fills the night with life, from the economic, political, social, cultural and religious activities of human beings to the behavior of animals, anything that stimulates the senses, from shadows, street lighting, stars, nocturnal plant and animal life to human bodies shrouded in darkness. In short, everything that humans experience during the night, from everyday life to the parallel world of dreams or the unwelcome visitation of ghosts to pirate attacks. The purpose of the Student Conference is to analyze the night from a broad historical perspective, starting from the state of the art on the subject and arriving at new declinations of the night and its importance for human activities in the past.

Transmodernity in Caribbean Literature and Arts

“Archipélies” n° 18

This issue of Archipélies takes a cross-disciplinary look at Caribbean identity and its new forms of expression. The impact of philosopher Edouard Glissant's theories has given unprecedented visibility to the Caribbean as a “New World Region” whose mixed-race and digenetic populations are constructing an unprecedented phenomenology of Relation. According to Fernando Ortiz, the various manifestations of the process of cultural interweaving that is taking place within the territories of the Caribbean presuppose a “transculturation”, that is to say, a “trans-” formation of the subject as part of the transcultural dialogue between the Same and the Other. This phenomenon, inherent in the Pan-American space, had already been highlighted by the Brazilian anthropophagic modernist movement led by Oswald de Andrade.

Rap, R&B, Afro-Caribbean Music and Race In France and the Mediterranean

Les festivals musicaux comme les victoires de la musique ou le festival de San Remo (Giuliani et.al, 2016) ont révélé un certain inconfort des institutions culturelles face à une diversité qui demande de repenser l’identité nationale. Pourtant, nombre de musicien·nes racisé·es, ancré·es dans le rap, le R&B, et les musiques afro-caribéennes arrivent en tête des ventes en France et dans le pourtour méditerranéen. Aya Nakamura est l’artiste francophone la plus streamée dans le monde depuis plusieurs années ; Soolking qui mêle rap, R&B et raï compte 7,5 millions d’auditeurs et auditrices mensuelles sur Spotify (Taillandier 2020). Il apparaît donc indispensable de se pencher sur le rapport de ces styles musicaux aux sociétés contemporaines du pourtour méditerranéen et particulièrement à leur rapport à la construction sociale de la « race ».

Waste management and health safety in Cameroon

In their quest to improve lifestyles, contemporary societies find themselves faced with a whole range of waste, the quantity of which has increased considerably. It includes objects that are not biodegradable on a human scale, as well as compounds that are likely to damage certain natural resources (water, soil and atmosphere). The effects of today’s chemical waste on human health and the environment can be chemical, bacteriological or parasitic. People can feel the effects in different ways, for example in the short term, pollution can be detected by the human senses (olfactory or visual nuisance) and in the longer term, there can be health risks for people and the environment. This situation calls for reflection on public policies for urban waste management and their effects/impacts on people’s health, in line with the SND30 guidelines. The aim of this study day is to analyse the issues involved in appropriate waste management with a view to proposing solutions to public authorities for better management of urban waste, with a view to preventing harm to public health.
