    Seeking Refuge beyond Europe. New perspectives on European Refugees, Migrants and Exiles in the Middle East and North Africa, 19th-20th centuries

    Special issue of “Diasporas”

    This special issue of Diasporas. Circulations, Migrations, Histoire explores the arrival, transit, and settlement of refugees from Europe, their interaction with civil societies and state institutions, and the evolution of various refugee regimes in the the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) in the 19th and 20th centuries. The role of the imperial, national, and colonial governments will be of particular interest in order to understand the different political factors at stake for the interactions between refugees and the local societies. The issue seeks to contribute to and facilitate the discussion between different fields of research, such as the historiography on expatriate communities, humanitarian organizations, forced migration in MENA, and (post)colonial history. Integrating the experiences of displacement from Europe into the larger question of the transformation of refugee/migration policies in MENA and beyond, the issue’s ambition is to offers new insights into European and Middle Eastern history.

    Drivers of Change, Labour migrants from the Middle East, North Africa, and Turkey and social transformation in Western Europe, 1960-1990

    Labour migrants were a transformative power in Western Europe, provoking intended and unintended, large and small societal changes. It nevertheless remains challenging to fully integrate migrants’ pivotal roles into our fundamental comprehension of social, cultural, and political change in Western Europe. This workshop aims to merge subfields at the intersection of migration history to integrate the history of post-war labour migration into a larger narrative.

    École thématique - Histoire

    Université d’été dédiée à l’histoire et aux cultures alimentaires

    Depuis 2003, notre université d’été s’est positionnée comme un espace de réflexion de référence autour des nouvelles recherches en Food Studies. Après plusieurs éditions thématiques, cette édition 2024 poursuivra son ambition d'apporter un regard résolument large de ces champs de recherches dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire. Alors que, depuis une vingtaine d’années, de nouvelles thématiques émergent et dynamisent la recherche en Food studies, comment celles-ci s’articulent-elles au sein des différentes disciplines de sciences humaines et sociales, de l’anthropologie à l’histoire en passant par la sociologie et les études littéraires ? Comment les jeunes chercheurs peuvent-ils se positionner face aux larges possibilités qu’offre ce champ de recherche ? D’éminents spécialistes d’horizons disciplinaires différents aborderont ces questions par le prisme de leurs propres recherches.

    Dynamics of Belonging: Exploring Home and Homeland in Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea Region

    The 15th Annual International Conference on Baltic and Nordic Studies

    In reflecting on the notion of home, individuals in both the Scandinavia and Baltic Sea Region engage in a multifaceted introspection. Whether one envisions home as a microregion, encapsulating the unique landscapes and cultural tapestries of Scandinavia or the Baltic Sea Region, or defines it on a national scale, the discourse expands to include the intricate layers of personal and collective identity. This contemplative journey involves both longstanding inhabitants and newcomers, prompting a profound meditation on the concepts of home, homeland, homelessness, or a state of being without a defined nation. This conference aims to delve into the nuanced dimensions of cultural identity, sustainability, connectivity, migration, security, education, innovation, and artistic expression within the captivating landscapes of Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea Region.

    Militant·e·s en exil. Genre, engagements politiques et migrations au XXe siècle

    Ce colloque a pour but de donner à voir les développements récents de la recherche sur les migrant·es militant·es, en explorant les interactions entre genre, engagements politiques et migrations au XXe siècle. Les propositions pourront aussi bien porter sur l’engagement féminin que sur les masculinités ou les rapports de genre en contexte militant. Comment le genre influence-t-il la militance en migration ? Et comment l’engagement politique et la migration influencent les rapports de genre et la construction des féminités et des masculinités ?

    Heritage, Science, and Technologies for Sustainable Preservation

    Cultural heritage is not just a testament to our past; it is a living testament to the diverse cultures and histories that enrich our global tapestry. Yet, it faces numerous challenges in the contemporary world, from natural disasters and climate change to urbanization and the pressures of globalization. Our conference embraces a multidisciplinary perspective, acknowledging that the preservation of cultural patrimony cannot be accomplished through isolated efforts. It calls for the convergence of expertise from diverse fields, from archaeology and conservation to law, technology and new technologies, management, marketing, and social sciences. By doing so, we reflect the spirit of our consortium, which is firmly rooted in the belief that innovative and sustainable practices are essential for the effective safeguarding of our rich cultural heritage.

    Ecological Grief and Mourning in the Literature and the Arts in the Anglophone World (18th – 21st c.)

    This conference proposes to explore the concept of ecological grief and the fast-growing body of theoretical work that is developing around it against the background of the ongoing sixth-mass extinction and biodiversity loss. With this conference, we also wish to think about the longer history of ecological grief from the eighteenth century onwards, including by exploring some of the consequences of the Industrial Revolution. Is nature grievable? How do we grieve for it? What is the role of writers and artists in this individual and collective process? While to some, environmental grief gives way to desolation or an irredeemable sense of melancholy, others view it as a form of resilience or even a spur to action, a source of activism in art.

    Circulations politiques, culturelles et intellectuelles Sud-Nord dans la période post-Bandung : vers une histoire connectée du Commonwealth

    Ce séminaire se consacre à l’étude des circulations des Suds vers les Nords dans l’optique de déconstruire « l’Empire britannique » comme catégorie homogène de pensée pour écrire et penser les histoires intellectuelles, artistiques et politiques des personnes qui circulent au sein de cet espace politique que l’on appelle le Commonwealth des Nations dans la période post-Bandung. Dans la lignée de travaux antérieurs portant les réseaux, échanges et transferts entre artistes, intellectuel·les et activistes politiques issu·es des Suds globaux au sein de cet espace, nous cherchons à interroger la nature contre-hégémonique des savoirs, théories et pratiques artistiques produits depuis Bandung. Nous souhaitons donc, à travers ce séminaire, analyser les circulations et transferts d’idées politiques et culturelles, mais aussi les trajectoires intellectuelles d’individu·es, de collectifs et d’institutions.

    Image Deluge and Globalization

    The fields of visual studies, cultural history, and art history have encountered considerable challenges in addressing the plurality of images. These disciplines typically favor a singular outlook on images, neglecting the sheer deluge of visual representations that characterize the modern media landscape. Nevertheless, the constant flood of images has been part of our daily lives since the introduction of mass reproduction techniques, evolving alongside the gradual development of engraving, illustrated print, advertisement, cinema, television, video games, and now digital media. Observers of these consecutive stages of mass visual communication and consumption have consistently linked this phenomenon with the broader concept of globalization, often raising concerns about cultural homogenization, and loss of identity. This conference aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of image globalization, representing the wide range of subjects and methodologies used in the domain.

The focus is on understanding how geographies of home are shaped by political, commercial, and cultural factors, as well as inequalities related to culture, race, location, social class, gender, and sexuality. Case studies in diverse contexts and innovative approaches that transcend traditional boundaries are welcome.

    Capitalization and the Start-Up Economy

    Critical Perspectives on Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Venture Capitalism

    For the past twenty years, social sciences have studied financialization as a process affecting many (if not almost all) aspects of contemporary societies. More recently, research at the crossroads of sociology, economics and the science and technology studies (STS) developed a new understanding of financialization, centered on how “things are turned into assets” (Birch and Muniesa 2020). Such a perspective provides useful tools for critically examining the start-up economy and emerging business practices related to venture capital funding. This workshop aims to bring together scholars from science and technology studies and beyond who work to develop a transversal perspective across various cultural sites and practices. Through different formats (keynote, round table, panels), the workshop will offer a setting to conduct in-depth discussions on capitalization.

    Changement climatique et interaction homme-environnement dans le Caucase

    Perspectives géo-bio-archéologiques et littéraires

    Dans des moments de crise comme celle que nous vivons aujourd’hui, il est indispensable que les scientifiques de différentes disciplines et pays unissent leurs forces pour enregistrer les données et préparer des solutions pour cet avenir proche. Afin d’estimer toute la chaîne d’événements (probablement catastrophiques) qui pourraient affecter un pays comme la Géorgie – le pays mythique de la Toison d’Or –, il faut considérer tout le cycle de l’eau, depuis la fonte des glaciers jusqu’aux lacs de haute montagne, les bassins fluviaux, leurs deltas et la mer. Les modélisations climatiques, géomorphologiques et écologiques doivent être mises en relation avec les informations transmises au fil du temps par les textes littéraires, afin d’anticiper les changements sociétaux proches. En s’appuyant sur des recherches antérieures des participants, sur la géohistoire et la géo-bio-archéologie de la mer Noire, des basses terres de Colchide, des rivières – y compris du mythique fleuve Phasis, cette rencontre se veut un coup d’envoi pour de futures collaborations internationales et interdisciplinaires.
