Pierre Varignon, a “professional” geometer at the dawn of the Enlightenment
A geometer and mechanic recognized by his contemporaries, an influential member of the Royal Academy of Sciences, in epistolary contact with Leibniz, Newton and even the Bernoulli brothers, Pierre Varignon (1654-1722) shaped a scholarly trajectory that we would today call professional. He is a “normal” scientist, neither brilliant nor misunderstood, and it is in this that he deserves to be studied. The aim of this conference is to make this polymath scholar better known, to take stock of the studies that have been devoted to him over the past few decades and to encourage research that sheds light on lesser-known facets of his commitment, such as his role in the dissemination of knowledge, particularly as a teacher, his positions in contemporary debates, or his technical inventions.

Le colloque international sur le (cyber)harcèlement (Cicy) envisage le phénomène de manière large, incluant les dynamiques de harcèlement (scolaire, moral, sexuel), de cyberharcèlement, de violence et de haine en ligne, dans des contextes sociaux variés et au sein de différents groupes sociaux. Les communications proposées ont tout d'abord trait aux enjeux définitionnels du (cyber)harcèlement et aux actions de lutte ou de prévention développées pour y faire face. Une attention est également portée aux rôles que jouent les affects, les émotions, les algorithmes ou encore les rapports sociaux de domination (dans une perspective intersectionnelle) dans les violences en ligne.

The Grip of Communication
Pour ses dix ans d’existence, la revue Politiques de communication organise un colloque international dont l’ambition est de proposer une réflexion d’ensemble sur « l’emprise de la communication » dans la structuration des espaces sociaux contemporains. Il propose un bilan des travaux sur l’évolution des pratiques et représentations sociales de la communication et leurs implications organisationnelles. Il propose également d’interroger les rapports sociaux de domination - de genre, de classe, de « race », de génération et autres - dont la communication est un outil et parfois un révélateur.

Conference, symposium - History
Contemporary Societies and Domestic Threats
This colloquium proposes to examine, from an interdisciplinary perspective, contemporary societies' relationship to internal threats. What happens when individuals, groups or segments of the population threaten to use violence, or actually do so, by turning against other groups or the state? What happens when the state itself goes 'into battle' by targeting groups and confronting them as 'enemies'? These situations cover a large number of historical experiences, which are at first sight irreducible and incommensurable, and are even more difficult to define given that their qualifications are almost always matters of struggle between the actors involved. This conference aims at bringing them together, gathering and confronting investigations devoted to sequences of this type in order to question these situations of hostility.

Brazil, an independent country ?
Rethinking “dependency theory” 200 years after 1822
On the occasion of the bicentennial of Brazil’s proclamation of independence (September 7,1822), this conference examines the paradigm of “dependency theory.” We will consider both how Brazilian intellectuals contributed to dependency theory and what their analyses offer for thinking about Brazil’s independence and place in the world today. The oeuvre of Brazilian dependentistas insisted on the impossibility of understanding the history of Brazil and Latin America without considering the complex dynamics between the national and the international, between domestic political and economic structures and the broader world system of which they were part. This conference, 200 years after Brazil’s formal independence, evaluates the promise and limitations of their analysis, at once historicizing dependency theory and using the authors associated with it to better understand the present.

Language contact and bi/plurilingual acquisition: diversity of situations, diversity of processes?
Le colloque « Contact des langues et acquisition bi/plurilingue : diversité des situations, diversité des processus ? » se donne comme objectif d’interroger les caractéristiques de l’acquisition bi/plurilingue dans des situations de contact des langues en interrogeant différents points de vue : socio-psycho-linguistique, (socio)cognitif et didactique. Chaque situation de contact de langues engendre une dynamique complexe d’acquisition des L2 où un ensemble de facteurs – externes et internes à l’apprenant – exerce une influence sur l’appropriation des langues. Les recherches en acquisition des L2 ont initialement modélisé les situations d’acquisition comme des situations d’apprentissage d’une L2 par des locuteurs d’une L1. L’essor des recherches sur les bilinguismes, les multilinguismes, les langues d’héritage, les influences translinguistiques et les phénomènes d’attrition invitent à complexifier ce modèle bipolaire et à s’interroger sur la nature des processus en jeu dans les situations variées d’apprentissage et de transmission des langues, leurs points communs et leurs différences.

Conference, symposium - Representation
Il s’agira, au cours de ces deux journées d’interroger les diverses manières dont le genre peut influer sur les processus de médicalisation. Ce colloque nous invite par exemple à considérer l’historicité des processus de médicalisation liés au genre (notamment à travers l’étude des cas de l’hystérie, du bovarysme, de l’homosexualité ou encore de l’avortement). Il vise également à explorer comment les identités de genre se construisent et ou se déconstruisent en partie à travers le recours à des interventions médicales, à questionner le rôle de la médecine dans nos parentalités contemporaines et à mieux comprendre en quoi un organe comme l’utérus ou encore la prostate ont pu particulièrement faire l’objet d’un regard médical complexe.

Elite Mobility and Funerary Practices in Iron Age Europe
Modern borders and language barriers are a huge hindrance in the field of Early Iron Age research. This conference will strive to overcome this by inviting specialists from Western and Central Europe and the British Isles to present research on elite graves found in their regions and consider a range of topics that contribute to our understanding of the rise of Early Iron Age elites throughout Northwest Europe and their large-scale networks.

Conference, symposium - Political studies
Recent events in the United States remind us to what extent the South is both a place of distinctive identities and a space sharing a common heritage. According to the political scientist Michael Goldfield, “The South is a distinctive, atypical part of the United States; it is also, however, America writ large”. These specificities are inscribed in social, cultural, political and, according to the author, above all economic structures, in a configuration that makes any definition of the “South” problematic. On the occasion of the release of Michael Goldfield’s latest book, The Southern Key (2020) we want to address these issues during an international symposium in the presence of the author.

Visual History of the Conquest of Turkestan by the Russian Empire, 1860-1900
Testimonies, Representations, Commemoration, Decolonisation
Le colloque sera consacré à l’analyse des représentations visuelles de la conquête du Turkestan par l’Empire russe au XIXe siècle. Ces représentations ont été constituées aussi bien par les témoins directs que par les générations soviétiques et post-soviétiques cherchant à les héroïser, mythifier, inscrire ou oublier dans diverses reconstructions historiques.
