    Phraseological Universals in Natural Languages

    Revue « Neophilologica », n° 38

    The study of linguistic universals, closely tied to linguistic typology, seeks to identify features shared across natural languages despite their diversity. These universals — traditionally classified as phono-logical, grammatical, semantic, and symbolic — aim to formalize the invariants of human language, often in connection with cognition and perception. While linguistic typol-ogy focuses on differences between languages, the study of universals defines their con-straints, delineating the boundaries of possible variation.

    Associationism: history, practices and legacies (19th–21st centuries)

    Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal Nº 27

    This dossier aims to bring together original scholarly contributions that deepen our understanding of associationism in its multiple dimensions, privileging approaches that combine methodological rigour with empirical and analytical breadth. Proposals may be based on specific case studies or comparative analyses and should critically engage with the nature of associationism and its impact on contemporary societies. Contributions drawing on unpublished primary sources or offering innovative reinterpretations of well-known documentary corpora are particularly welcome.

    Cycle of conferences on post-colonial studies from Latin America

    This first edition of the Conference Series on Postcolonial Studies from Latin America — conducted in collaboration with the Department of Languages — arose from a particular concern: what does it mean to engage with Latin American thought from France? In an article that also serves as a statement of position, historian Serge Gruzinski attempts to answer this question: France is a place where it is possible to seek a new conception of the relationship between Europe and America, far from the reductions that certain intellectual traditions—notably American postcolonial studies—have made of Latin America.

    Mémoires des conflits, conflits de mémoires

    Approche pluridisciplinaire des récits et représentations mémoriels contemporains de l’expérience concentrationnaire et répressive en Europe (1933-1945)

    Cette journée d’étude porte sur la manière dont les discours contemporains (re)fabriquent la mémoire. Ils sont nombreux et de natures diverses : ils s’enchâssent dans le monde de l’art, ils sont portés par les associations de mémoire et sont omniprésents dans le monde muséal (rappelons par exemple que de nombreux sites concentrationnaires deviennent des mémoriaux). Ils continuent de dialoguer et de se confronter avec l’actualité européenne et internationale. Nous nous focaliserons principalement sur la période de la Seconde Guerre mondiale en Europe, avec une attention particulière à la manière dont la guerre d’Espagne a fourni ses victimes au nazisme.

    The Social Life of Names and Naming Practices in the Context of Migration

    Names are not mere labels but powerful tools through which people assert identity, are categorised, and negotiate relationships with states, institutions and communities. Whether they refer to people, places or businesses, names do things : they index belonging and difference, tell stories, record histories of mobility and settlement, and mediate social interaction. This topical collection uses names and naming practices to trace the reconfigurations that accompany migration.

    Minority Uses of the Past and Dynamics of Power in the Americas (19th–21st Centuries)

    This conference follows on from an initial meeting, which focused on the forms of uses of the past, to examine the consequences of these uses and their results, both on national history and on minorities, as well as on disciplines and their methods. Researchers from different disciplines are invited to reflect on the same subjects from the perspective of their methods: anthropologists, sociologists, geographers, historians, specialists in literary studies, cultural studies, art historians, and linguists. The following four themes may guide proposals for papers.

    Ce numéro de la revue Daftari za Ngūgī (ex-Nouvelles Dynamiques Africaines) invite à une rupture épistémique avec les mesures occidentales du développement (IDH). Contre la vision d’une Afrique pathologisée par les classements internationaux, cet appel sollicite des enquêtes empiriques rigoureuses explorant le « développement par le bas » : économie informelle, solidarités villageoises et définitions endogènes du « vivre-mieux ».
