    Migrating Off the Beaten Path. Europeans and the World at a Time of New Migratory Horizons (1750-1850)

    Since 2023, the PIOMIG project “Pioneers of Global Migration (16th- 21st centuries)”, supported by the Maison des Sciences de l'Homme et de la Société - Sud-Est (MSHS-SE) and the Institut Convergences Migrations (ICM), has been studying so-called “pioneer” migratory phenomena, which lie upstream and on the margins of the major migratory currents already well identified in scholarly literature. After organizing a first workshop, which enabled us to better define this notion (https://epi-revel.univ-cotedazur.fr/publication/pionniers-migrations), we propose to convene a symposium on December 4, 5 and 6, 2025. This symposium will provide an opportunity to present the original material collected and analysed in recent years, and to compare it with other approaches and studies on related subjects.

Second, we encourage reflections on cross-reading administrative and police archives with community archives. Finally, we welcome papers that focus on the materiality of archives.

    Endogenous structures for the conservation of cultural property in Africa in the context of the repatriation of stolen cultural objects

    In the historical context of the repatriation of stolen African objects preserved in European museums, little attention has been paid to the endogenous spaces and structures of conservation from which African objects have been extracted since the 15th century. However, the museum institution that Europe seeks to impose on African societies as a solution to their current conservation is a recent initiative and not adapted to African realities. Furthermore, the aim of the debate on the spoliation of African cultural property is not to insist essentially on the problem of provenance or documentation of the stolen objects, even less on the “actors of the theft” or “collectors,” but to question the meaning and significance of African cultural productions in time and space. It is a question of proposing a historical-cultural reading of African societies, contradicting the discourses that disfavor the return of looted objects. The authors and promoters of these discourses, denying the African societies that produced and used these stolen cultural objects, the ability to receive and preserve them properly.

    At the crossroads of the African world: a space for mobility and the emergence of new identities, from prehistoric times to the 21st century

    Mobility, one of the fundamental functions of any society, is now a key concept in research into migration in the human and social sciences. In an approach to migration based essentially on identity, security or usefulness, several African, European and American states have adopted immigration laws to limit the movement of people and access to the right of asylum. In the light of current concerns about migration throughout the world, this international symposium in tribute to Professor ALLOU Kouamé René is intended to provide a framework for analysing the migration policies that African governments, whether or not they are subject to the diktat of Western public authorities, are trying to implement in order to remedy these identity crises as part of the construction of the nation-state.

    Islam - migration - gender

    The “Islam - Migrations - Gender” workshop aims to initiate a dialogue between three fields of research that communicate little: the history of Islam, the history of migrations and the history of gender. The first is too focused on religious dimensions for some, the second is too focused on state control of migration others, and the third is too “militant” for the rest. How, then, can we write a social and cultural history of Muslims in Europe that integrates gender as a category of historical analysis and focuses on the daily lives of the actors, highlighting their “agency”?

    Rethinking inside activism

    Illiberalism, participation, and (un)mobilization

    Inside activism was the subject of a profusion of studies in the 1990s and 2000s, whether in the environmental field, gender politics, or urban policy, many of which can be found in the special issue devoted to it by Politix in 2005. Although this subject has received less attention since then, it has prompted much research abroad, particularly in Latin America. This event aims to revisit the study of institutional activism by examining it in the light of diverse political contexts, particularly within the authoritarian and illiberal dynamics that shape the commitment of public agents.

    Gender and Neurodiversity on Screen

    Revue Genre en séries : cinéma, télévision, médias - Numéro 20

    Le numéro « Genre et neurodiversité à l’écran » aspire à interroger la notion même de neurodiversité et ses potentialités émancipatrices au-delà de la seule question de l’autisme. Si les recherches sur l’autisme semblent en effet en bonne voie de structuration au sein des critical autism studies, l’appréhension d’autres variantes de fonctionnement cognitif depuis le paradigme de la neurodiversité fait encore l’objet d’une carence d’étude. Les différents articles pourront prendre pour objet aussi bien les contenus fictionnels, que les productions à visée informationnelle ou de divertissement.

    Appropriating international spaces and professions. European women and feminists in the 20th century

    The workshop focuses on the intersections between the history of international relations, the history of European integration, women’s and gender history, European studies, and gender studies. Since the early 21st century, historiography on international relations and European integration has undergone profound transformations, enabling the integration of a gender perspective. The workshop has two main objectives. First, it will reassess the field by discussing the theoretical and methodological challenges of approaches at the intersection of the history of international relations, European integration, gender and feminist history, European studies, and gender studies. Second, the workshop will provide a platform for debate around case studies, recent or ongoing empirical work. It is explicitly aimed at PhD candidates and early-career researchers.

    Literatures, geographical spaces and the fateful effects of borders

    Alors que la frontière est dépeinte comme une limite nécessaire à toute société dans une logique d’organisation et d’administration, entre inclusion et exclusion, la question des déterminants d’une frontière (géographique) est posée. La mise en place ou même bien la postérité de frontières peut être considérée comme tenant à la fois de la contingence et de la nécessité. À l’image du mythe de Héro et Léandre, et de leur amour interdit, la littérature et les arts ont souvent fait de l’eau le marqueur d’une frontière « naturelle’ et ‘émotionnelle ». Dès lors, les éléments d’ordres naturels joueraient un rôle crucial sur la destinée des Hommes et des espaces.

    Bringing monuments to life: Thinking about visitor experiences

    Ce colloque vise à questionner le rapport des publics aux monuments à partir de la notion d’expérience, et cela dans une dimension internationale. Le terme d’expérience, souvent polysémique, se situe à la croisée de plusieurs disciplines (muséologie, sociologie, sciences de l’information et de la communication, tourism studies, etc.) qui interrogent la manière dont les visiteurs interagissent et s'approprient les lieux patrimoniaux.

    Decolonial routes, knowledge, spaces and memories

    Decolonial summer university SIRA (Savoirs, Idées, Réseau, Archives)

    The symposium will critically examine what decolonization means and its implications in educational contexts. It seeks to challenge the power structures entrenched within academic institutions through a series of discussions that take place in spaces ranging from universities in the Global South to the Théodore Monod African Art Museum and the historic site of Gorée Island. These discussions aim to reconfigure the creative and resistant dynamics that continue to shape us. The connective movement between academic institutions and historically marginalized spaces—those imbued with histories of resistance—underscores the central thesis that “decolonization is not a metaphor.”

    Making architectural history through the prism of environmental and decolonial issues

    From historiography to the epistemology of history, what are the "new problems, new approaches, new objects" - taking up and updating the postures of Pierre Nora and Jacques Le Goff - new periodizations, new geographical areas of architectural history? This symposium aims to clarify the complexity of these narratives, which are both plural and situated, in order to better understand the methodological questions they raise and the contemporary issues they illuminate. It will question these new data and make them resonate with approaches that claim to be postcolonial and/or environmental. It will examine the epistemological implications of the use of certain notions, such as the anthropocene, and their mobilization in the field of architectural research.

    The World in Celebration

    Economies of Renewal and Transformation

    The "celebration" or post-crisis period is not merely a moment of festivity but an opportunity for tension release, reinvention, collective creativity, and the creation of new identities and relationships. This symposium proposes to examine how, from an economic and organizational perspective, societies reshape, rebuild, and find new avenues for transformation after times of crisis, both systemically and discursively.
