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.

Troubling Desires: Queer and Trans Approaches to Medieval Art
Papers are invited for this session which aims to foster exchanges between those who work on gender and sexuality in the field of medieval art history. It is premised on the idea that the tools required to study premodern sexuality and gender in and as related to the visual arts are not necessarily those that have been so central to modern and contemporary histories of these topics. As such, this session aims to present a series of case studies that offer new approaches to works of art and explore medieval configurations of sexuality and gender that are distinct from and complementary to contemporary studies in this field.

According to some specialists, sport is a universal phenomenon which, in various forms, has always existed. For others, the existence of sport in Antiquity cannot be envisaged because, at that time, it was a cultural practice with a strong religious dimension. Whatever these debates, sport can be defined as an activity practiced alone or in a group, an activity requiring physical qualities, strength, skill, reflexes, endurance, and moral qualities. Practitioners observe rules specific to each sport, exercise for their own pleasure, their health or compete in competitions. This activity is partially institutionalized: many sportsmen and women join specialized clubs, affiliated to federations that define regulations and organize official competitions, Olympic Games, world, national and regional championships, tournaments, grand prix, land or sea races, etc.

How do former industrial towns and border towns welcome refugees?
In this call for papers, we would like to focus specifically on the particular case of cities that have historically developed through multiple waves of migration. We are thinking not only of the former working-class towns in north-eastern Paris, but also of border towns that have found themselves on the front line of migration reception during previous flare-ups of conflict in neighbouring countries.

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 ?

Reflection at Work: Representation, Perception and the Making of Light in Art
Depuis quelques années, le développement des Sensory Studies en histoire de l’art tend à réintroduire la prise en compte des perceptions sensorielles dans l’analyse des œuvres (par exemple Constance Claassen pour le toucher, Erika Wicky pour l’odorat, Marta Battisti pour l’ouïe). En s’inscrivant dans ces approches, le workshop « reflets », qui se tiendra à l’INHA (Paris) les 22 et 23 janvier 2026, vise à appréhender de façon interdisciplinaire la question du reflet dans l’art du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle.

“Community Healthcare” in the Americas: (dis)continuities and reappropriations
Revue « IdeAs » n°28 (automne 2026)
Community health, which refers to a set of practices and intervention models grounded in social participation and a promotional-preventive approach, began to emerge during the 1960s as an alternative way of delivering healthcare. The American continent was one of the incubators of this approach, drawing on liberation theology and popular education movements in Latin America, the Free Clinics and the Neighborhood Health Clinics in the United States, and the interaction between popular movements and the State during Quebec’s Quiet Revolution. This issue of the journal IdeAs proposes a continental approach to community health.

Teaching Design Today : Practices, Knowledge, and Reconfigured Institutions
Ce colloque vise à interroger les mutations contemporaines qui affectent l’enseignement du design, dans un contexte marqué par des transformations profondes — sociétales, écologiques, numériques, culturelles — appelant à repenser les cadres pédagogiques, les formes de transmission, les articulations entre théorie et pratique, et les liens entre école, recherche et société. Les trois axes du colloque interrogent les fondements de l’enseignement du design face aux mutations contemporaines. Le premier explore la formation à la pensée critique, à l’éthique et à la responsabilité sociale et environnementale. Le second valorise la transdisciplinarité et les pratiques collaboratives entre disciplines. Le troisième s’ouvre aux apports du numérique, aux pratiques émergentes et à la recherche-création comme moteurs de renouvellement pédagogique.

The aim of this conference is to examine the modalities and consequences of terrorist action, as well as the interweaving of anti-terrorist practices (public policies, legal frameworks, prevention) and counter-terrorist practices (operational, military or police actions) aimed at containing terrorism in societies which are not engaged in international warfare. The aim of this conference is to analyse the ways in which anti-terrorism and counter-terrorism have mutually redefined each other, while constantly reconfiguring the boundaries of political, military, police and legal interventions across the European continent from the second half of the 20th century onwards.In addition to this political and institutional approach, the conference will also look into the representations, as well as the social and media effects of these phenomena.
