    Circulations in the global South: Ethnographic explorations of globalized exchanges

    APAD Conference

    After the Roskilde conference in 2018, devoted to mobility and migration, the Association for the Anthropology of Social Change and Development (APAD) proposes for its 2020 edition, co-organized with the Department of Anthropology and African Studies of the Faculty of Human and Social Sciences (FSHS) of the University of Lomé (Togo), to focus on the multiple forms of large-scale circulation of goods, ideas, techniques, information and models that increasingly cross the global South and link it to the rest of the world. Panels or papers focusing on smaller-scale, regional or neighbouring countries' circulations, or showing the consequences of scale change in circulations, are also welcome.

    Revolutionary cosmopolitanism. Transnational migration and political activism, 1815-1848

    The period 1815-1848 not only was characterized by several waves of revolution in Europe, the Atlantic world and beyond, but also by large movements of migration. Although these migrations can often be associated with political uprisings, only few connections have been made between the study of migration history and history of political thought and practices. This one-day conference aims to bring together these different strands of research and to discuss how experiences of migration and cross-boundary mobility contributed to the formation of common revolutionary cultures in the period 1815-1848.

    Graphic novels in east Asia

    Dans le cadre de l'année de la bande dessinée 2020 lancée en France par le ministère de la Culture, ce colloque propose de revenir sur tout un pan de la bande dessinée mondiale selon une approche régionale, centrée sur l'aire est-asiatique. Il s'agit de décentrer le point de vue habituellement focalisé sur les bandes dessinées américaine ou franco-belge, et d'élargir les discours déjà nombreux sur le manga japonais à d'autres traditions voisines, en Corée, en Chine, à Taiwan, à Hong Kong.

    Investigating, describing and thinking institutions: (dis)continuities and transformations

    Plus qu’une synthèse du terme institution, ce colloque s'interroge sur ce qui les façonne, ce qu’elles véhiculent, produisent et transforment. À la croisée de plusieurs courants de pensée et de différentes manières, ce colloque vise à aborder, à définir et à analyser les institutions et les rapports sociaux qu’elles sous-tendent. Il propose de porter un regard renouvelé sur la question de l’institution, en interrogeant ses rôles dans les processus de transformation sociale. En somme : comment penser, à travers la notion d’institution, la pérennité et la transformation de pratiques, de valeurs, de normes sociales, d’identités, de collectifs, de politiques et de lois ?

    Conference, symposium - Sociology

    Women of glass, glass-making women

    Cette rencontre internationale, inédite, alterne communications à caractère historique et témoignages vivants, associant ainsi le regard de scientifiques et universitaires à ceux de professionnels de la pratique du verre, des cheffes d’entreprise, des musées et tout simplement des passionnés. Y sera cernée la place occupée par la gente féminine en verrerie, monde que l’on disait pourtant réservé aux hommes, aussi loin que remontent les études réalisées. Or, en faisant le choix de multiples aller-retour entre le passé et le présent, l'on comprend désormais combien la femme a toujours été présente en verrerie et l'est toujours.

    Study days - Middle Ages

    The world object in the Middle Ages

    Closures and ordering in literary, iconographical and architectural productions

    Le monde médiéval (mundus), création divine, ordonnée et parfaite, se suffit du principe divin qui en règle le fonctionnement. Cette perfection du monde, inséparable de sa clôture et de son intégrité, semble aussi avoir été pensée comme principe de la création humaine. Partant de réflexions sur le haut Moyen Âge, l’objectif de cette journée d’étude sera de suivre la pertinence, la survivance et peut-être l’effacement et le remplacement de ce schéma de pensée sur toute la période médiévale.

    Greece(s) - Histoire de l'art journal, no 86

    Histoire de l'art, no 86

    2021 marks the bicentennial of the Greek uprising which resulted, at the end of a long war, in the country’s independence:Greece was thus born as a modern nation while romanticism, particularly in France, made it one of its favorite themes,carrying out out a vibrant philhellenic movement. The commemoration should not, however, cover up that there were andare other Greeces, from antiquity to our own day. The theme of this issue is also given in the plural since the construction of Greek art in the modern era is but one of the phenomena considered here. It is the plurality of constructions of Greecein art which unifies the collection of studies and essays which we envision.

    Cosmology, a metaphysical need, a need for metaphysics?

    Ce colloque pour jeunes chercheurs aura pour but d'interroger la dimension métaphysique des cosmologies depuis l'antiquité jusqu'à notre époque. Ce sera un lieu privilégié pour discuter de l’hypothèse qui est à l’origine de ce projet, à savoir celle de l’existence d’un besoin - ou en tous cas d’une aspiration – métaphysique à l’œuvre dans tout travail cosmologique. À cette occasion pourront ainsi être discutés le rejet de la métaphysique et le tournant "scientiste" de la cosmologie moderne, ainsi que les critiques ou redéfinitions de cette idéologie scientiste à l'époque contemporaine.

    Discourse, pratices and tools used in the migration/development relationship: circulation, innovation and resistance to the South

    Panel - APAD conference 2020

    How do texts, practices and tools related to the “migration and development” debate circulate? This panel offers to analyse the processes of imposition, translation or hybridization, along with “travelling models”, and the appropriation or resistance experiences of the different categories of actors involved in migration/development governance. We examine the transnational circulation of texts and narratives that have become references for development practitioners in the Global South; the performativity of technical and managerial instruments, case models and “good practices”; the changes in the intermediaries and brokers categories.

    Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)

    The COST Action “Islamic Legacy: Narratives East, West, South, North of the Mediterranean (1350-1750)” [CA 18129] is launching a call for a conference “Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)”. The event that we are disseminating is being organised within this project, which as the purpose to provide a transnational and interdisciplinary approach capable of overcoming the segmentation that currently characterizes the study of relations between Christianity and Islam in late medieval and early modern Europe and the Mediterranean. We aim to create a network that will help to provide a comprehensive understanding of past relations between Christianity and Islam in the European context through the addressing of three main research problems: otherness, migration and borders.

    Towards a Decentered History of Dance

    How is history moved, reconfigured, stimulated, by current research on dance? In connection with the Lyon Dance Biennale and the forthcoming publication of A History of Dance in the West (Ed. Seuil, Sept. 2020), this international conference in Lyon, France, aims to extend questions addressed by scholars’ contributions to the book, as well as generate entirely new dialogues via various acts of “decentering” dance historical scholarship. The polysemic notion of decentering is here understood as an invitation to reevaluate theoretical models, methods, approaches and historiographies of dance.

    Transgressing to better rule: shadows and lights of the power in Antiquity

    Open to the whole of the ancient Mediterranean world, this conference is intended to be transdisciplinary. Several approaches can be considered: communications are expected to propose a reflection on forms of power or transgressive acts and to set out their characteristics, as well as their links with the society in which these powers and acts emerge. All types of transgressions can be addressed: social, political, philosophical, religious, literary, linguistic, etc.

    Regulating religions?

    Legal and social status in contemporary Europe

    The regulation of relation between the states and religious groups has often been the focus of scholarly interest, especially in the ’90s, when the so-called New Religious Movements drew a lot of attention. Nowadays, many rapid changes occurring at the same time (evolution of the religious landscape, changes in political discourses, secularisation, movements of population, etc.) encourages further consideration of the subject. With its specific approach, the Eurel network brings together specialists of law and social sciences of religion, and it intends to tackle this issue at its next conference.
