    TechLING 2025 – Language, Arts and Inclusion in the Era of Innovative Technologies

    Cette conférence internationale vise à explorer l’intersection entre les langues, les arts et les technologies innovantes, avec un accent particulier sur l’inclusion et l’accessibilité. L’intelligence artificielle générative jouera un rôle central dans cette édition, mettant en lumière son potentiel pour l’apprentissage personnalisé, la communication interculturelle et la création numérique. La conférence analysera comment ces technologies peuvent faciliter l’accès au savoir, encourager l’acquisition de nouvelles compétences et renforcer la collaboration entre humains et systèmes intelligents.

    Geographies of Vulnerability. Assessing Protection in the Screening and Resettlement of Refugees

    Central to policy discourses on refugee protection and resettlement is the imperative to include those with the greatest needs. International protection mechanisms for refugees increasingly aim to categorize and identify target populations according to their vulnerability. This topical collection recognizes vulnerability as fluid and contested, shaped by evolving policy landscapes and international cooperation dynamics and explores the impact of different understandings of vulnerability on access to protection and the aim of burden-sharing.

    Un Duchamp peut en cacher un autre. Jeux de mots et d’images

    A Duchamp can hide another: Playing with words and images

    This workshop will bring together critical contributions from the human and social sciences, and aims to grasp through his playing with words and images what Marcel Duchamp took pains to hide, or what was at stake in his games of hide-and-seek with the viewers who “make the work”.

    2026 Call for Researchers by the Bnu : Abraham Moles Collection

    In 2013, as part of a donation, the Abraham Moles library was incorporated into the BNU collections. With around 7,000 volumes, this collection reflects the diverse interests of a researcher trained in both the exact sciences and the human sciences. Its books, files, records and objects illustrate Moles’ intellectual and professional journey, from his early work as an engineer specialising in electroacoustics to his research in social psychology, and from his collaboration with the RTF Radio and Television Studies Centre to his work on the subject of kitsch. Its breadth also includes Moles’ areas of special expertise as a pioneer of the information and communication sciences in France, including computing and urban planning, posters and design, semiology and “futurism.” The topic to be pursued during the researcher’s stay must be directly related to the Abraham Moles collection at the National and University Library.

    Democracy at the University

    Principles, Practices, and Challenges in a Globalized World

     This conference aims to explore democracy in the university as a principle, a value, and a practice, both in France and internationally. It is structured around two parts – national and then comparative – and two thematic axes: on the one hand, the exercise of democracy within institutional structures (governance, elections, widened access, reforms); on the other hand, non-institutional forms (student mobilizations, participatory democracy, academic freedoms). The goal is to analyze the issues, actors, and democratic dynamics in a globalized university context.

    The Words of Gender

    Circulation, Translation, and Interdisciplinarity

    Ce colloque international propose de réfléchir aux déplacements linguistiques, culturels et disciplinaires des concepts issus des études de genre, féministes et queer. Nous souhaitons ainsi examiner la façon dont ces mots voyagent, se détournent et se redéfinissent à travers des pratiques de traduction, de réappropriation ou d’invention, dans des contextes variés — disciplinaires, géographiques, linguistiques.

    Calibration / Étalonnage : des mots aux mondes

    Anthropologie linguistique, concepts du terrain, concepts du champ

    Linguistic anthropology originated via a focus on language use. Now language has two key features: It is only ever encountered in use, that is, processually. And it is forever the medium of its own explication, that is, it is reflexive. To grapple with language, one accordingly needs concepts that possess these features. As is well known, linguistic anthropology arrived at such concepts through its grounding in Peircean semiotics. Another basis for the sub-discipline’s concepts has been the Boasian comparativist tradition of language study. Continuing its exploration of the latter, this conference proposes a focus on the concept of calibration, first taken up by Benjamin Lee Whorf.

    Marc Bloch in Brazil. History and Social Sciences

    The conference proposes a critical reflection on the work and legacy of Marc Bloch (1886–1944), a central figure in historical studies as a social science. His path as a medievalist, co-founder of the Annales, and committed intellectual reveals an interdisciplinary and transnational approach that remains highly relevant today. The event aims to explore the reception of his ideas and their impact on the human and social sciences, bringing together history, theory, and political engagement.

    Qual è il contributo della tradizione giuridica romanistica alle sfide poste dalla scienza e dalle nuove tecnologie?

    Les sources juridiques romaines sont référencées dans de vastes corpus (par exemple, le Digeste, les codes et autres littératures juridiques). Elles constituent une base qualitative solide. Un ouvrage pionnier vient de paraître (R. Perani, IA e Digesta e Digesta Iustiniani, Milan 2023) dans lequel l’auteur a soumis à l’intelligence artificielle la casuistique juridique, issue des compilations de Justinien, afin de tester la fiablilité prédictive de l’intelligence artificielle. Plus généralement, cette rencontre sera l’occasion d’aborder la capacité des algorithmes à comprendre le raisonnement et la logique de la science juridique romaine à travers une approche comparatiste.

    The long history of the masculinisation of womenswear

    Journée d’étude Tailoring Identities

    Cette journée d’étude a pour objectif de revenir sur la transformation du vestiaire féminin du XVe au XXe siècle lorsqu’il emprunte à différents ressorts de mode masculine, ainsi que sur les pratiques de cross-dressing. Elle entend analyser comment l’art des tailleurs a accompagné la définition progressive d’une silhouette s’éloignant des apparences de la féminité normative, et examiner comment les emprunts au vestiaire masculin ont permis à des personnes en dissidence avec les normes de genre d’exprimer indépendance, résistance ou appartenance – de manière visible ou (quasiment) invisible. En se penchant sur l’intersection entre mode et identité(s), elle espère la variété des manières par lesquelles le vêtement a permis les expressions individuelles, mais aussi combien il a été, au-delà d’elles, un moyen de résistance et de négociation des normes sociales.

    The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension

    1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium

    The 1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium ‘The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension’ aims to reflect on issues of insularity and archipelagos in the conception of today's world, marked by environmental crises, new trends in human development and reinterpretations of place and its dynamics. Thinking about islands and archipelagos, in all their trans- and inter-material dimensions, equivalences and disparities, influences the conception not only of these discontinued worlds from their continental matrix (in some cases), but also of territories which are assumed to be outside the continent, with ontic possibilities of a truly archipelagic context.

    Étudier les polices au Moyen-Orient

    Penser les formes d’États du VIIIe siècle à nos jours

    Le Moyen-Orient est longtemps resté le parent pauvre des travaux de sciences sociales consacrés à la police. Cette marginalisation n’est pas propre au monde arabe. La France a elle-même investi tardivement ce champ de recherche, privilégiant l’analyse de ceux qui subissent la répression plutôt que ses commanditaires et exécutants. Pour saisir les dynamiques de construction de l’ordre public et les relations États-société dans le Proche Orient, nous proposons de décentrer le regard en partant de l’appareil répressif et en privilégiant une perspective diachronique.

    Gender and Money

    Historical Workshop

    Le contrôle et l'utilisation de l'argent sont clairement identifiés comme une question de genre dans les sociétés contemporaines. Pourtant, l'argent en lui-même - sa gestion et son contrôle, la manière dont il peut servir d'outil de domination ou de levier d'action, la question de savoir qui le possède et qui le contrôle - a rarement été posée comme une question historique indépendante sur le long terme. Cet atelier de recherche sur deux jours propose une premier jalon de réflexion sur cette question. Il rassemble des historiennes de l'époque médiévale au très contemporain dans des panels consacrés au patrimoine, aux réseaux de crédits, à la comptabilité quotidienne, aux mobilisations politiques.
