Summer School - Epistemology and methodology
Research methods and problem-solving
Digital humanities summer school (Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas)
The digital humanities have been largely debated and are currently a wellestablished branch of knowledge with specific departments, research centres, journals and a growing community gathered around several national and international associations. The digital humanities have a growing impact on teaching, researching and on dissemination in the humanities, and are nowadays an almost mandatory approach for new research projects and for young researchers curriculum. This summer school aims at providing concrete answers to specific needs and challenges emerging from projects carried out by master and PhD students, and post-doctoral researchers in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

Memory and the making of knowledge in the Early Modern world
While memory is an established sub-field within these disciplines, its themes and sources have led to an over-representation of the ancient and modern worlds, meaning that the early modern era has been comparatively neglected. The School seeks not merely to redress this imbalance, but also to explore how studies of memory and early modernity might shape one another in the future. Participants in the Summer School, which will take place between 18 and 22 September 2017, will have the opportunity to discuss the most recent research presented by leading scholars in the field, to learn or refine skills in workshops that focus on the media and techniques of memory, and to present their own work to a uniquely qualified and supportive international peer group.

Using and thinking research data
Franco-German masterclass in the digital humanities
Cette master class franco-allemande en humanités numériques vise à rassembler huit jeunes chercheurs allemands et huit jeunes chercheurs français participant à ou porteurs de projets en humanités numériques et à leur offrir un forum où échanger de manière fructueuse pour la poursuite de leur recherche, autour de la question de la gestion des données de la recherche. Chacun(e) doit être prêt à présenter son projet (et les données afférentes sous un format ouvert) et à le mettre en dialogue avec ceux des autres particpant(e)s dans un type de rencontre proche d’un THATCamp, c’est-à-dire sans enseignement magistral ni exposé frontal.

Summer School - Science studies
In the face of the current ecological crisis, how shall we rethink concepts and practices of environment, ecology, difference, and technology to envision and create a more just, sustainable, and diverse planet? The combined histories of colonialism, extraction industries, energy, as well as innovation in design, architecture, literature and technology offer a lens by which to examine how contemporary techno-scientific societies envision planetary futures. Site visits exploring resource extraction, colonialism in urban policy and planning, and speculative architectural design will be accompanied by an analysis of science fiction, science technology, speculative design and ethnography, as well as life and earth sciences.

Sources, figures and stakes in the power relation between young people and the authorities in globalised societies - the case of the Islamic world and Europe
Lors de cette Summer School, il sera question de faire un état des débats contemporains en France et en Belgique dans les milieux musulmans concernant les logiques de légitimation et dedélégitimation du savoir religieux et de l’autorité religieuse dans la pensée sunnite contemporaine. Il sera aussi question d’en analyser les enjeux principaux, en prenant en compte la diversité des positions et des courants, mais aussi les logiques dominantes et les concurrences et tensions.

Today, historians are increasingly confronted with questions about the use of primary sources. How does one deal with historical primary sources in the Digital Age? What peculiarities present sources, which have been digitized, or which originated in digital form–so-called “born-digital” sources? How do we read them? How do we interpret them? How can they be used in order to construct a historical narrative?
This four-day Summer School offers historians (PhD-candidates, graduates students, established historians) the opportunity to acquire the basic principles of data usage in the historical sciences, and benefit from insights gained in other humanities and social sciences disciplines.

Data bases and history - international doctoral school
École doctorale internationale
L’objectif est de permettre aux étudiants de doctorat de se former aux méthodes de structurations des données, ainsi qu’aux enjeux historiographiques et épistémologiques de leur application aux sciences sociales en générale, et à l’histoire en particulier. Il s’agit donc d’articuler la théorie et la découverte des notions qui sous-tendent l’édification d’une base de données (structuration, architecture, modèle conceptuel des données…) et leur exploration statistique (statistique descriptive, multivariée, exploratoire). Pour atteindre cet objectif, cette semaine s’organisera sur un schéma simple : les matinées commencerons par une heure de discussion sur des lectures recommandées ou des exercices à réaliser, suivie par des conférences méthodologiques ; les après-midis sont consacrés à des prises en main logiciels et des expérimentations individuelles ou en groupes pour favoriser l’apprentissage.

Work organization in Medieval and Modern periods
6th summer school of economic history
The topic of the the sixth economic history summer school will enable us to continue and deepen the themes developed over the past few years (the value of things, poverty, common goods, means of payment and quality). While work involves acting on material things, its organization implies a reflection on the property of things, the relationships with time, discipline, control and know-how. On the part of governments, it also requires information that makes it possible to reflect on the state of economic life as well as on all the conflicts endemic to society, to be able to work out legal and practical devices that are necessary for the constitution of a particular knowledge. It also finally questions issues around technical training and the command of various forms of know-how, in contexts that sometimes place some rival systems in a competing situation.

Reflexivity and ethnographical practices
En amont du colloque « Ethnographies plurielles #7 » du 9 et 10 novembre 2017, une journée de formation interdisciplinaire dédiée aux doctorants est proposée le mercredi 8 novembre 2017 sur le thème de la réflexivité, autour de la problématique de la prise en compte de la pratique ethnographique selon les temps de l’enquête (préparation et construction, réalisation, exploitation) et selon les postures et les identités utilisées et générées par le chercheur tout au long du processus ethnographique.

The social history of religious belonging
An interdisciplinary approach. From the Mediterranean to the Indian Ocean. 15th-20th century
L’histoire religieuse a longtemps constitué un chapitre à part dans l’historiographie des sociétés modernes et contemporaines, souvent réservé aux spécialistes du fait religieux, des croyances ou des pratiques, et des institutions. La question des appartenances religieuses demeure pourtant un élément déterminant en histoire sociale et politique, qu’il convient de reconsidérer à la lumière des déplacements historiographiques les plus récents. L’objectif de cet atelier sera ainsi de réfléchir à la façon dont les sciences sociales permettent de penser les appartenances religieuses, de la fin du Moyen Age à nos jours, en comparant des espaces géographiques parfois très éloignés.
