In addition, this conference will provide a comprehensive overview to date of the Arabian Gulf at a time of major political change, including the successive arrival of the European “trading empires”.

  Climate and Societies in the Mediterranean during the Last Two Millennia

  Current State Of Knowledge and Research Perspectives

  This two-day international conference aims to highlight recent and challenging interdisciplinary studies dealing with complex historical climate/society interactions in Mediterranean during the last two millennia. The study of these existing connections can help in better understanding the role played by past climatic events in the eruption of regional conflicts, in forced migration and displacement of people, in periodically appearing infectious disease outbreaks or in subsistence crises like food shortages and famines Similarly, it seems necessary to identify and analyze socio-economic and technological responses (e.g. water supply systems) together with mitigation and general adaptation strategies, insofar as they existed, to cope with climate change.

  The massacre of Pya-Hodo in Kabiye, North Togo, 60 years later

  The lessons of a past that isn't passing

  À travers le prétexte de la répression coloniale de Pya-Hodo (au Nord-Togo) du 21 juin 1957, ce colloque veut revisiter la problématique des luttes anticoloniales en mettant en exergue les traumatismes causés par les répressions au sein des populations victimes. Ce sera également l’occasion de questionner la notion de « passés qui ne passent pas », tant les souvenirs demeurent encore vifs au sein des communautés qui ont enduré le martyr. Il s’agira aussi d’analyser de pareils cas dans d’autres espaces, que ce soit dans les territoires français, britanniques ou autres. Enfin, il sera question d’interroger la façon dont sont gérés les États africains, plus de cinquante ans après les indépendances.

  Moving Beyond Paris and London: Influences, Circulation, and Rivalries in Fashion and Textiles between France and England, 1700-1914

  By looking closely at the relationship—at times friendly, at times not—between France and England through fashion and textiles between 1700 and 1914, this conference will touch on a number of topics, including: the circulation (lawful or illicit) of knowledge, individuals, and objects; the diffusion – and cross-fertilization – of design models between the two countries via press, engravings, or fashion dolls; the importation of textiles and clothing; the phenomena of copying, espionage, and counterfeits; the pursuit of protectionist policies which aimed to limit imports from the rival nation.

  Europe and the Cold War – Changes and Disruptions

  5th Annual Meeting “Europe and the World”

  Au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’Europe est en pleine décadence. Au cours de cette période difficile, la confrontation entre les deux Europes ne cesse de s’accroître. Face à l’expansionnisme soviétique, les pays d’Europe occidentale se tournent vers les États-Unis qui leurs octroient de l’aide économique et de la protection militaire. La reconstruction de l’Europe fait alors l’objet de débats houleux. Sous la pression des mouvements européanistes, les débats prennent de l’élan surtout à partir de 1948 dans le but de rebâtir l’Europe et la paix en Europe. L’atmosphère de « Guerre froide » est très présente depuis 1946.

  Benelux: Europe and the Cold War

  The Power of non-powers and perspectives on the economic, social and political aspects of European Security Strategy in the early Cold War

  What are the historical roots of views of European defense and Europe's role in Western defence? How did the early European Integration movement perceive American involvement in the development of a common security strategy? This conference will investigate these and other related questions by re-examining the early cold war US/European relationship and the role that early Cold War period developments played in the European Integration Movement. In so doing, this conference will also showcase findings which can contribute to the unification of Cold War and European Integration historiographies.

  Capitalism and inequality in the United States

  Ce séminaire se propose de repenser la question des inégalités à l’aune des travaux récents sur l’histoire du capitalisme aux États-Unis. En repensant les mécanismes de crédit, les processus d’endettement ou les nouveaux enjeux de la question salariale, de multiples analyses invitent à réfléchir aux formes de légitimation ou de rejet des inégalités dans une société capitaliste. Si les États-Unis constituent le cœur de notre réflexion, des approches comparées seront régulièrement abordées. Ouvert à tous, ce séminaire mensuel s’articulera autour de lectures et de présentations de travaux en cours.
