    In_Visibilities

    Issue 13 of On_Culture (Summer 2022)

    The editorial team of On_Culture, would like to draw your attention to the call for abstracts for issue #13 of On_Culture (Summer 2022) on “In_Visibilities”. This On_Culture issue will approach questions of in_visibility from a power-analytical and ideology-critical perspective. Avoiding a binary opposition, visibility and invisibility are conceptualized as two mutually entangled concepts. By using the underscore in the orthography (in_visibility), we want to highlight the processual continuum between the two concepts and create a space for ambiguities that put the visibility concept under re-negotiation.

    Humankind and Fat. Attraction, Repulsion, Health and Politics

    12th International Symposium of CORPUS

    Fat that our bodies accumulate, fat we consume, our representations of fatty foods and bodies… The relationships between humankind and fat are a fascinating topic for social and medical scientists. They are highly variable according to the places and the times and, often, much more nuanced and complex that the dominant discourse suggests. Not very so long ago, European peasants valued fat. Today, their urbanised descendants have panic attacks if they have to move a hole in the belt! However, even if they are lipophobic, they are still linking some traditional fatty foods with festival meals. Western canons of beauty radically changed since the time when Romanian sayings went that a beautiful woman had to be fat or that a fat man was healthy. Entertainment media teach us that perfect people are thin. Nevertheless, the apparent triumph of this ideal of the body beautiful does not mean that fatter bodies totally lost their sex appeal or their power of fascination. Out of Europe, the relationships between humankind and fat can obviously differ, even in our globalized world.

    Himalayan Journeys. Circulations and Transformations

    This conference goal is to foreground movement as a particular social dynamic and to consider mobility and circulatory regimes, trails, routes and roads as the “connective tissue” within various historical and political contexts and against the backdrop of rooted cultures and identities inscribed in particular landscapes. We wish to explore how these circulations relate to cultural practices, imaginaries and materialities and how they are socially transformative. What can the study of circulation tell us about the Himalayas, their social and spatial dynamics ? Does the Himalayan social fabric produce peculiar circulatory regimes and pathways ? How have relations between states and circulatory phenomena evolved ? What are the new cultural and moral geographies that emerge from this global-cum-local circulation ?

    Ambiances souterraines. Quel renouveau du débat ?

    Ce numéro thématique de la revue Ambiances vise à mettre en lumière des enjeux partagés et des passerelles possibles entre des acteurs qui privilégient usuellement des échelles d’intervention différentes. Nous invitons à des réflexions interrogeant les enjeux et les méthodes de fabrique de l’espace habité dans sa verticalité en réintroduisant la question du sous-sol non comme une sous-face, mais comme une interface vivante et évolutive. Le dossier fait appel à des chercheurs, praticiens du monde opérationnel et concepteurs de différents horizons disciplinaires à partager leurs travaux sur la question des sous-sols et tant ambiances, fabriquées, pratiquées, et expérimentées par l’humain en mettant en avant des études de cas, des expériences in situ et des nouveaux outils méthodologiques. Cet appel s’organise selon trois axes thématiques non exclusifs ouverts à des articles provenant des études urbaines, de l’architecture, de l’ingénierie et des sciences humaines et sociales.

    De la transcription de l’oralité aux pratiques orales de l’écrit

    Cultures rurales et populaires à l’âge du numérique

    Ce numéro spécial à paraître en 2022 vise la publication de textes qui s’interrogent sur la relation complexe entre l’écrit et l’oral dans la production de sens qui définit les traditions et les relations collectives, dans des contextes de changement (post-communisme, post-colonialisme, migration, l’usage de nouvelles hypermédias, storytelling etc.) ; de textes qui abordent les nouvelles formes de l’oralité dans les sociétés contemporaines ; ainsi que de contributions qui, répondant à l’appel de l’ethnologue M. Mesnil, ouvrent des perspectives méthodologiques nouvelles pour l’ethnologie de l’oralité dans des sociétés contemporaines dominées par l’histoire et les textes écrits.

    Politique de l'alimentation aux États-Unis

    Revue « Politique américaine »

    Ce numéro de Politique américaine vise à saisir l’analyse politique de l’alimentation et de la nourriture et la manière dont ces problématiques nourrissent les mouvements sociaux. Car au-delà des questions – légitimes – de santé et de politiques publiques, bien souvent celles et ceux qui réclament d’autres manières de se nourrir le font au nom d’un modèle de société et de communauté qui s’écarte du mainstream. L’alimentation est aussi source de socialisation et de sociabilité, d’éducation (Flammang), un des lieux où se jouent, viscéralement, des problématiques liées au genre en particulier (Counihan), mais aussi à la race (Witt, Opie) ou à la classe (Finn).

    Domestic accumulation, decluttering, and the stuff of kinship in anthropological perspective

    We invite submissions of abstracts considering the following sorts of questions: What is the relationship between storage and the labor of kinship? What kinds of possessions are sources of obligation? Which are experienced as social or animate beings? What social practices and spatial processes surround waste, excess, and the riddance of objects from the home? How might local ethnographic concepts like hau orbrol inform the anthropological understanding of attachment to possessions, recycling, or the circulation of second-hand objects? When is accumulation a valued social practice, and when is it morally suspect? How is the space of storage constructed in relationship to the social space of the home, and how might this reflect on the local category of stored things? We invite authors to consider how practices such as storage, stockpiling, and purging of belongings can be approached anthropologically in order to provide both nuanced ethnographic depth and broader cross-cultural and historical perspective. Interdisciplinary perspectives are also welcome.

    A Different Perspective for the Atlantic Routes

    Impressions and Exchanges in Transoceanic Journeys from the 16th to the 19th Century

    After more than two years of a preparation that have been careful and laborious, but slowed down and hindered several times by the difficulties that have arisen due to the global pandemic, this project finally gets underway. It intends to go back once more to questioning issues that already count important in-depth studies, like the transoceanic relations between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries, but also has the ambition of wanting to integrate the results already obtained with new reflections and achievements, and above all with a different point of view.

    Computing The Human

    The aim of this conference is to open a discussion on the topic of “computing the human.” It is intended as a “melting pot” for interdisciplinary debate reflecting the complexity of the issues : cultural history of computing, human-computer interaction (HCI), and emotion programming, all framed by the ethos of diversity and inclusion in computing and artificial intelligence. Contributions are welcomed that focus on the ideas, analyses, and technologies that materialize the visions in various time-spaces, including laboratories, artistic performances and exhibitions, archives, digital spaces, the imagination of more-than-human worlds, artificial bodies and computed emotions, ethical dilemmas and statements, and regulations. The discussion will be fed with concrete research cases, fieldwork, projects, and analyses.

    DIY cultures, democracy and creative participation

    The year 2024 marks the 10th anniversary of KISMIF and the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution in Portugal. In addition, remembering the recent loss of Howard S. Becker, the KISMIF Conference will dedicate one of its thematic lines to scientific contributions related to the work of Becker, with the intent of recognizing the transformative and innovative potential of his sociological research, thus highlighting the importance of the concept of art worlds – amongst others – which he developed and which – since 2014 – has served as the motto for the organisation of this far-reaching international conference. As such KISMIF 2024 will serve as a pivotal occasion of reunion and celebration.

    Ecotourism and Ecotravel in the Anthropocene

    Green Marble 2023. International Meeting on Anthropocene Studies and Ecocriticism

    Green Marble 2023 is an international scientific meeting focused on the theme “Ecotourism and Ecotravel in the Anthropocene”. We specifically seek to address and discuss how ecotourism, understood as a form of tourism that involves responsible travel (using sustainable transport) to natural areas, conserving the environment and improving the well-being of the local population, can contribute to a good Anthropocene, the one where we become able to use the unprecedented collective power to act in/on the planet we acquire in a balanced and fair way.

    Reading reuse. Image recycling in Egypt and beyond

    L’Institut français d’archéologie orientale organise un workshop sur la notion de remploi et des changements d’usage d’artefacts décorés (monuments entiers, ornements muraux, éléments mobiliers, statues, figurines, vases peints ou incisés, parures...) en contexte archéologique ou architectural. Notre intérêt académique est de rassembler des spécialistes de périodes et d’aires culturelles variées, à travers une approche comparative qui ne se limite pas à l’étude des sociétés du passé mais bénéficie également des apports de l’anthropologie culturelle.

    Kinship, Neighborhoods and Communities in The Maghreb: Or How to Rethink the Bond between the Local and the Global?

    Nowadays, it seems somewhat anachronistic to speak of bonds of kinship or neighborly relationships, networks of solidarity, mutual aid and support that they can entail in a (post)modernity that is increasingly characterized by the shift and transfer of the social and economic functions once attributed to the family, to public authorities. While matters of belonging and identities seem to be increasingly affected by quite virtual and proximate factors whereby spheres would be considered as being increasingly more seamless and permeable. Nonetheless, recent socio-anthropological studies have perversely revealed that patterns of kinship, family bonds, community or neighborhood ties seem to remain a remarkably significant part of the lived experiences of humans, albeit continuing to control the relationships among people and between people and their environment. The main goal of this symposium is to raise questions about the relevance of kinship, neighborhood and community as a source of meaning, identity and socio-economic solidarity.

    The Stuff of Tradition: Materiality and Media in Folklore Studies

    In the forthcoming 11th international conference of Young folklorists, we seek to examine the complex relationship of folklore studies with materiality by juxtaposing it with recent re-orientations to media and (re)mediation. The conference aims to explore various materialities inherent to our data and methodology – whether obvious or ambiguous – and rethink their position in our field. We invite scholars to discuss both academic and vernacular notions on the transmission of tradition and its social and material embeddedness. We also encourage methodological discussion on how folklore scholars are themselves bound by various (new) media and technologies of documentation, archiving, and presentation.

    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.

    “No place like home”: mapping out intimacies and relations between the private and public spheres

    This session aims to explores the multifaceted nature of home as a space where private and public spheres converge, emphasizing its significance in geographical studies at the intersection of cultural, social, and retail geographies, as well as urban development. 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.
