From phenomenological to stereoscopic listening

Günther Anders and music

Anders’s work is rooted in a phenomenological approach that explores how human beings simultaneously inhabit both the world and music. For Anders, listening to music is not merely a sensory or aesthetic activity, but an ontological transformation of existence. This conference investigates Günther Anders’s musical thought, focusing on his phenomenology of listening and critique of technical media. It aims to reassess the relevance of his musicological writings through contemporary philosophical, aesthetic, and political lenses, bridging musicology, critical theory, translation studies, and intellectual history.

Identities, Circulations, Migrations

A Cultural History

Based on the observation that all societies have been shaped by the movement of human beings, ideas and beliefs, goods and capital, the organizers wish to build an international scientific meeting around this central theme. More specifically, they wish to examine the relationship between these movements (particularly those of all individuals who physically cross state borders) and identities, at all levels that deserve to be considered: identities of the people who move as well as those of the host and home countries, local, national, international and transnational, and even civilizational identities.

Artificiality | Surfaciality

La conférence Artificiality | Surfaciality invite à explorer la fracture représentative entre surface et profondeur, et la manière dont le niveau superficiel de la représentation tend à l’emporter sur les implications invisibles qui se trouvent en dessous.

Crossed Perspectives on/with Unaccompanied Young Migrants: Words, Images and Discourses

We are organizing this conference in order to reflect on the worlds of words, images, discourses, and opinions surrounding these young migrants, produced both by the young people themselves and by the influential actors of our societies. We will question the scope of these representational worlds and their capacity to offer real alternatives for understanding migration with regard to UM-FIM-YIM. It is also a matter of observing, through the prism of media discourse, the role of the state, institutions, and different associative actors in the management of these phenomena.

Decolonization and justice: Multiple criminological perspectives

Criminologie journal

This thematic issue aims to bring together scholarly contributions that explore the relationship between decolonization and justice from multiple criminological perspectives by offering both theoretical and empirical reflections. It provides a venue for critical dialogue across disciplines concerned with the persistence of colonial relations within justice systems, while foregrounding the forms of knowledge and approaches that contest or transform them. Core concerns include social justice, alternative systems, care for marginalized populations, recognition of structural violence and reparations for victims.

Specters of Architecture: The Negative Voices of the Project

Architecture and infrastructures are inhabited by specters, which are traces of what has been, but also of what could have been, or what may one day come to be. We propose to read them through the lens of these specters, by paying as much attention to absences as to presences. This symptomatic approach encourages a focus on manifestations of projects, narratives, buildings, and infrastructures that have been imperfectly forgotten.

Engendering (repurposing)

Revue Intermédialités - numéro spécial

Ce numéro d’Intermédialités s’appuie sur le concept de réutilisation (repurposing) en l’abordant dans une perspective située et informée par les études de genre. Nous sollicitons des contributions qui proposent une relecture interdisciplinaire du concept de réutilisation du point de vue de l’activisme féministe et LGBTQIA+, en s’intéressant aux manières dont il peut contribuer à la création, la consolidation et la préservation de pratiques et d’actions collaboratives, résistantes et relationnelles à travers différents champs, disciplines et médias.

Spectres de l'architecture

L’architecture et l’infrastructure sont habitées par des spectres qui sont autant de traces de ce qu’elles ont été, mais aussi de ce qu’elles auraient pu être, ou de ce qu’elles seront peut-être un jour. Nous proposons de considérer l’architecture et l’infrastructure sous l’angle de leurs spectres, en portant l’attention sur les absences autant que sur les présences. Selon cette approche symptomale de l’architecture, il s’agirait de nous intéresser aux manifestations spectrales qui débordent de la place qu’on a donnée aux projets, imaginaires, bâtiments, infrastructures qui ont été mal oubliés.

Experiencing Contact in Native North America (17th-19th centuries)

Far from being limited to specific places and times, contacts between Native Americans and Euro-American settlers should be studied as long-term phenomena. These encounters took various forms: they could be contentious, diplomatic, cultural, religious, or economic in nature. Our goal is to study the nature of these encounters, their different occurrences, their spatial dimensions, as well as their consequences, for both Indigenous peoples and Euro-Americans. By stressing the role played by long-standing Indigenous traditions in these encounters, we seek to testify to the ways in which Native Americans were able to control their interactions with Euro-Americans while situating these encounters in relationship to well-established Indigenous practices. To do so, we are looking for proposals which rely on Indigenous archives, both material and immaterial, and/or use new methods to analyze colonial records.

Education and pedagogy in Bayle's work

Online Bayle Seminar 2026

Online Bayle Seminar est un groupe d’étude et de recherche consacré à la figure de Pierre Bayle. Dans l’esprit même de la « République de Lettres » chère à Bayle, il se veut à la fois international et interdisciplinaire, et ambitionne de dépasser les cloisonnements entre écoles et approches qui ont parfois marqué les études bayliennes. Le sujet pour cette seconde année est « Éducation et pédagogie chez Bayle ». Que ce soit dans une perspective biographique ou philosophique, la question a touché de près la vie et la production de Bayle.

Jacques Feyder : Créateur, Maître, Patron

Jacques Feyder: Creator, Master, Patron

The exceptional recognition that Jacques Feyder (1885–1948) enjoyed in his lifetime contrasts with the paucity of studies devoted to him. In light of the historiographical renewal that cinema has undergone, thanks to new or previously under-exploited archives, as well as the restoration of several films in recent years, this conference aims to examine a unique body of work that invites us to revisit a significant part of the history of French and international cinema.

Cultural Diversity and Inclusive Education: Otherness, Othering and Transformative Practices

The international conference in March 2026 at the Université libre de Bruxelles focuses on cultural diversity and inclusive education within the context of superdiversity. It highlights school tensions related to social, cultural, and linguistic inequalities as well as conflicts over justice and recognition. Since the 1990s, inclusive education promoted by UNESCO has expanded beyond integrating special needs students to embrace all forms of diversity. However, a gap remains between the ideal of inclusion and exclusionary practices tied to othering. The call for papers encourages an interdisciplinary approach involving sociology, anthropology, education sciences, philosophy, linguistics, and digital studies. Researchers and practitioners are invited to share their experiences and reflections, incorporating African and American perspectives to enrich the discussion. The goal is to rethink inclusive education beyond conventional views through comparative and postcolonial lenses.
