  Transnational dimensions of dealing with the past in ‘Third Wave’ democracies

  Southern Europe, Central Eastern Europe, and the Former Soviet Union in Global Perspective

  This conference aims to fill the gap by looking at how post-dictatorial justice and memory experiences in Southern Europe, Central Eastern Europe, and the former Soviet Union after the “third wave of democratization” have reciprocally affected each other. It also seeks to unpack how memorialization practices in these regions were shaped by and influenced in turn criminalization discourses in other geographical contexts (Latin America, Asia, Africa). The conference focuses on transnational activism, transfers of knowledge, and expertise at bilateral, regional or international levels, the impact of legal and mnemonic narratives outside their countries of origin, and the role of international organizations and NGO's in dealing with mass violence. The conference aims thus to trace the mutlidirectional circulation of ideas, norms and models of reckoning with authoritarian regimes both within these regions, and between them and other areas of the world.

  The challenges of the freedom of expression - between censure and abuse

  Le colloque propose une approche interdisciplinaire concernant la liberté d’expression sous le gouvernement démocratique, en tant que principe et action publique également. On cherche ainsi comment s’articule le concept de la liberté à travers les conflits politiques et les débats juridiques, mais aussi les arguments en faveur d’une réglementation du champ de l’expression, qui impliquent l’État, la conscience, l'altérité culturelle ou même le bon sens, pour saisir ce que recouvre la censure et ce qui pousse l'individu à l'autocensure. Les interventions visent des thèmes comme l'irrévérence et l'offense en République, le droit de ne pas être neutre, le constitutionnalisme transnational et les droits fondamentaux, l'abus de la liberté d'expression, la censure et le potentiel subversif des mots.
