    Body, culture and identity in Lavapies, Madrid

    From the individual to the collective

    The objective of this Seminar is to stress the importance of a collaborative and participative way to understand through our senses. We want to explore connections between thinking and action in everyday city experiences, developing “in situ” actions. We consider that the knowledge of the space need space experiences. We aim to develop a collective, community exploration of the vital flow of the Lavapiés area in Madrid altering the classical relationship between artist, landscape and inhabitants. This exploration will allow the construction of an intangible map of audiovisual fragments, photo, phonographs, video art, performative actions. The direct experimentation of space helps us understand it, as well as "to perform it"; it helps us understand the aesthetic and emotional relationships we have with it. In order to get our objectives, urban artists, soundscape experts, theater groups, architects, philosopher, civil and social associations, citizens…will be invited.

    Call for papers - Epistemology and methodology

    Studying medieval buildings (1850-1950)

    Actors, stakes and methods

    The history of medieval architecture was written, from the mid-19th century, by men whose training, career and objectives were variable. In fact, they each developed their methods of analysis and their reading grids of medieval buildings, which are at the origin of our practices in art history and archeology. To be interested in these men and their works: this is the purpose of this study day that will allow to implement, at the scale of Western Europe, this epistemological approach of the medieval sciences dedicated to the castral, civil or religious building. Beyond the monuments themselves, which take the place of a major source, correspondences of scientists, archives of learned societies, photographs, old drawings, or the funds of historical monuments, for example, may be used to deal with one or more of the topics presented below.

    Mixed arbitral tribunals, 1919–1930

    An experiment in the international adjudication of private rights

    The creation of a system of Mixed Arbitral Tribunals (MATs) was a major contribution of the post-WWI peace treaties to the development of international adjudication. Numerically speaking, the 36 MATs were undoubtedly the busiest international courts of the interwar period. Taken together, they decided on more than 70,000 cases, mostly covering private rights. The MATs are similarly remarkable from a procedural point of view. First, their respective rules of procedure were so detailed that contemporaries described them as 'miniature civil procedure codes'. Second, in a departure from most other international courts and tribunals, they also allowed individuals whose rights were at stake to become involved in the proceedings before them.

    About Seignelay Colbert de Castlehill

    Between Scotland and Rouergue

    Ce colloque étudiera l'étrange figure de Seignelay Colbert de Castlehill, né à Inverness, le 13 août 1735 dans une famille presbytérienne et mort à Londres, évêque anticoncordataire et animateur de la Petite Église le 15 juillet 1811. Vicaire général de Loménie de Brienne à Toulouse, fréquentant les salons parisiens, il fut le guide de l'économiste Adam Smith à Toulouse et dans le Sud-Ouest de Bordeaux à Montpellier de mars 1764 à octobre 1765. Élevé au siège épiscopal de Rodez en 1782, il devient président de l'Assemblée provinciale de Haute-Guyenne. Député de la sénéchaussée de Rodez en 1789, il sera l'un des évêques ralliés au Tiers Etat permettant aux États-généraux de devenir l'Assemblée nationale. Cette trajectoire exceptionnelle a échappée à la prosopographie de la Révolution française comme à l'historiographie écossaise. Le colloque se propose de dresser le portrait que mérite une trajectoire aussi extraordinaire

    Life and Mind. Aristotelian themes in contemporary philosophy

    Despite the interest in exploring Aristotelian themes in contemporary philosophy, there has been no coordinated attempt to survey or integrate the ways in which Aristotle’s approach to understanding life, mind, and the relation between them might inform and enrich our own. The objective of this workshop is to explore the way in which Aristotelian thought can brought to bear on contemporary research on the much-debated issue of the so-called mind-body problem and on its implications for the conceptualization of notions such as that of organism, animal and human perception and action, human moral agency, and the relation between mind and life.

    Lithuania and the “margins” of Europe

    The aim of these two sessions is to explore the place of Lithuania within the geopolitical and social sphere of Europe during the later Middle Ages. The first looks to explore the encounters between Lithuania and the other political and religious groups that held stakes within the Baltic arena. The second session will examine the various perceptions Christian Europeans had of Lithuania and place it within a larger reflection on the image of the so-called “margins” of Europe in the Western European discourse.

    Complex education - a new paradigm?

    Cet appel à article de la revue Tréma, revue internationale en sciences de l'éducation et didactique de l'université de Montpellier, vise à mettre au jour des notions et des pratiques susceptibles de mieux appréhender le paradigme de l’éducation complexe, en référence aux travaux d’Edgar Morin. Il s’agira de mieux comprendre comment la pensée complexe, qui tente de relier chacun des éléments que sont la connaissance, l'individu et la société, peut être envisagée dans le cadre éducatif et scolaire. Quels liens et quelles influences peuvent être questionnés pour penser l’éducation complexe d’Edgar Morin ? Sur quelles pratiques, quels modèles, l’éducation complexe prend-elle appui ? Comment cette éducation complexe peut-elle être pensée dans le cadre de la formation des enseignants et des éducateurs, s’agit-il d’enseigner l’éducation à la complexité, de former à la pensée complexe ?

    Conference, symposium - Middle Ages

    A world in movement: the circulation of people, assets and ideas in the Merovingian age (5th-13th century)

    La localisation de Nantes en limite du royaume franc, en bord de Loire et ouverte sur l’océan, en fait le lieu idéal pour s’interroger sur la circulation des hommes, des biens et des idées dans des limites qui pourront éventuellement déborder du monde mérovingien. Les moyens de communication, les échanges, le commerce, les influences ou encore les transferts technologiques et culturels feront ainsi l’objet d’une approche multiscalaire permettant d’appréhender la question à l’échelle locale ou régionale (au sein des campagnes, dans l’espace urbain, relations villes/campagne, contextes littoraux ou intérieurs…) mais aussi sur de plus longues distances et par-delà les mers.

    Racism and antiracism: a pluridisciplinary clinical approach

    Étudier, dans une perspective de sociologie clinique, l’articulation racisme/antiracisme, tel est l’objet de ce colloque. Des recherches récentes, produites au sein de cette approche, ont permis d’identifier des processus de racisation, au niveau individuel et collectif. Ces travaux participent à rendre compte des modalités selon lesquelles fonctionnent le couple racisme/antiracisme, aux plans sociétal, institutionnel, organisationnel, groupal et individuel. L’enjeu de ce colloque sera d’approfondir la compréhension des relations racisme/antiracisme, relations qui seront abordées selon différents axes et différents contextes géographico-culturels et nationaux, et en tenant compte d’une approche psychosociale ou sociopsychique.

    Prison spaces in the Middle Ages: an interdisciplinary approach to the territories and materialities of medieval incarceration

    While recent work has renewed our knowledge of medieval execution sites and of the internal layout of detention facilities, much remains to be done to understand the distribution of prison spaces and territories, in particular to shed light on the socio-spatial dynamics and logic of their establishment. These prison spaces evolved between the beginning and the extreme end of the Middle Ages, with prisons only multiplying from the 13th century onwards. These evolutions must be understood in close coordination with the evolutions of medieval justice and its spatial practices. Studies can be carried out at the scale of a building, a neighborhood, a city, a city, one or more regions.

    The politics of the Arctic in perspectives

    Loin désormais d’une image d’un espace arctique unifié, gelé et exotique, ce colloque aura à cœur de discuter et de réfléchir sur la diversité de ces mondes arctiques en s’appuyant sur des recherches innovantes et transdisciplinaires. Les liens entre différents prismes d’analyse – géographique, stratégique, historique, politiste etc. - permettent de voir dans la région arctique un espace particulièrement sensible à la recomposition de la scène politique internationale comme aux bouleversements climatiques qui modifient singulièrement cette région vulnérable.
