Appel à communication » Les normes corporelles comme enjeu d’altérité »

Trois unités de recherche, l’Urmis, le Lapcos et le Lamhess sont à l’initiative de ce colloque pluridisciplinaire qui se déroulera à l’Université Nice Sophia Antipolis les 9-10 octobre 2014 sur « Les normes corporelles comme enjeu d’altérité ». Au croisement de la sociologie, de l’anthropologie, de l’histoire et de la psychologie, ce colloque a pour objectif de susciter un dialogue entre disciplines et champs de recherche autour de la question du corps et des normes corporelles. Il propose plus précisément d’explorer les processus de régulation sociale des normes corporelles sous l’angle de la (re)production des différences et de l’altérité. Son objectif est d’engager une réflexion sur le corps comme lieu d’imposition et/ou de subversion de normes corporelles au sein des rapports sociaux de sexe/genre, de classe et interethniques/de « race », mais aussi en lien avec d’autres critères tels que l’âge, le handicap, la religion ou l’orientation sexuelle.

Date limite pour l’envoi des propositions de communication : 28 Mars 2014

Les propositions de communication (au format doc ou pdf) comporteront un titre et un résumé de 2000 signes environ. Il devra être précisé dans quel axe elles s’insèrent.

Elles sont à déposer sur la plateforme : http://norm-corpo-2014.sciencesconf.org

Adresse-mail de contact : norm-corpo-2014@sciencesconf.org

Après évaluation, les réponses du comité scientifique seront communiquées pour le 15 mai 2014

Le colloque aura lieu à Nice les 9 et 10 octobre 2014.

Appel à publications : « Aux frontières de l’urbain. Petites villes du monde »

La revue Territoire en mouvement prépare un numéro intitulé « Aux frontières de l’urbain. Petites villes du monde » qui complète la réflexion menée lors de la conférence internationale du même nom organisée à l’université d’Avignon les 22, 23 et 24 janvier 2014. Volontairement ambiguë, cette formulation invite à questionner à la fois le thème des petites villes et celui des marges de l’urbain. L’objet de cette recherche est défini aussi bien « par le bas » que « par le haut », c’est-à-dire, par opposition classique au monde rural autant que par rapport aux grandes métropoles. En effet, ces dernières ont eu tendance à devenir une icône surmédiatisée de la ville. Mais, abstraction faite de ces organismes exceptionnels, qu’est-ce qu’une simple ville ? Constitue-t-elle un ensemble flou et transitoire ou représente-t-elle l’avenir d’une société urbaine ?

Les propositions (titre, résumé jusqu’à une page) sont à envoyer à François Moriconi-Ebrard (fme@noos.fr) et Cathy Chatel (chatelcathy@yahoo.fr) au plus tard le 15 mars 2014.

Call for applications to 2014 annual JWTC session Archives of the Non-Racial: A Mobile Workshop, 29 June – 11 July 2014

Archives of the Non-Racial: A Mobile Workshop, 29 June – 11 July 2014

You are invited to apply for a place in the 2014 Joint Session of The Johannesburg Workshop in Theory and Criticism and the Seminar in
Experimental Critical Theory IX . We will be working around the theme ‘Archives of the Non-Racial’. The 2014 Session will take place
across South Africa, starting in Johannesburg and ending in Cape Town from June 29 through July 11, 2014.

The Seminar in Experimental Critical Theory [1] was founded by the University of California Humanities Research Institute [2] in 2004 as a laboratory for experimenting with key contemporary themes in critical theory, in collaboration with global interlocutors. The JWTC was founded in 2008 as an independent platform for experimenting with theory in the global South. Since 2012, it has been relocated within the Wits Institute for Social and Economic Research (WISER) [3]. For both groups, the goal is to open up questions that are fundamental to contemporary aesthetic, philosophical, political, cultural, literary, ethnographic and ethical inquiry – questions that potentially point to new paths for critical theory at the interface of local, regional and global circuits.

Our audience is those critical intellectuals locating their work beyond the model of area studies; are willing to challenge naturalized interpretive conventions, and are eager to bring about a renewed dialogue among the disciplines with a view to transforming the landscape of critical theory and its impacts.

THE THEME
Since the 15th century race has been a central element in the making of the modern world. It has marked masters from slaves, the exploiting
from the exploited, the belonging from the non-belonging, the qualified from the supposedly unqualified.
Historical struggles against racism, in response, have contributed to a deepening and universalization of some of the key normative
pillars of modernity, most notably freedom, democracy, and equality. Commitments to defeat racism have largely been underpinned by some
version of the « human » and the « common », inventing and consolidating a language and conceptual strategy for reimagining political life. Yet
the recent emergence of « posthumanism » as a mode of proceeding for feminist and anti-racist politics, has queried the humanist
orientation of this work. Upon what ideas, what grounds do we draw in defining the work against racism?
By the 19th century, the « non-racial » emerged as an intellectual, political, and ethical category, assuming a variety of interpretations. Indexed to different intellectual, social, and political contexts, at times the non-racial has stood for the idea of « a shared human nature ». At others, it has gestured toward the idea of « abolition ». Sometimes it has meant the erasure of « difference » and its substitution by « sameness » alongside the commitment to a set of universal moral principles. During the struggle against Apartheid, in particular, it clearly became a motivating force in global politics.
Abolition, non-racialism, colorblindness, racelessness, postraciality, antiracism, anti-Apartheid, Black Consciousness, afropessimism: the range of investments is signaled by the fact that the « nonracial » itself is ambiguous – it oscillates between ignoring race (and so the structures of domination in its name) and conceiving socialities outside the frame of the racial. Discourses of post-raciality have circulated widely in the attempt to signal
racism’s past, at once reordering racial expression and racist articulation for the current moment. Also, in places such as Brazil and South Africa renewed debates on reparations, empowerment and historical accountability have sought to undo the legacies of racisms.

In continuing the experimental tradition of research and intervention in the humanities and social theory for which both the Johannesburg Workshop in Theory and Criticism and UCHRI’s Seminar in Experimental Critical Theory are well known, the Archives of the Non-Racial Workshop will assess the possibilities and limits of the « nonracial » in terms of the politics of the modern world and its core values: democracy, freedom, dignity, equality, the human, universality, justice.

To assess what they tell us about the project of human emancipation in our times, we will examine current struggles/alliances/coalitions/solidarities/forms of mobilization/registers of intervention, drawing relations and comparisons between various times and places.

The Workshop will also engage South African histories and landscapes of the centuries-long struggles against racism, from the Freedom
Charter, Treason and Rivonia Trials to Constitution Hill, from Black Consciousness and labor struggles to political resistance, anti-apartheid to post-apartheid. In each site, and where possible at all in dialogue with local communities, we will craft critical dialogues with other traditions of racial configuration, non-racialism, and antiracism elsewhere.

THE PROGRAMME
The 2014 programme will span two intensive weeks of lectures, seminars, public events, exhibitions and performances. The idea behind the planning of this mobile Workshop is to travel to significant critical sites in the history of South Africa’s notorious racial project in order to open the question of the « non-racial » both in South Africa and in its manifestation in other parts of the world. Workshop participants will travel by bus from Johannesburg to Swaziland, Durban, Mandela’s grave at Qunu, Steve Biko’s Ginsberg, and conclude in Cape Town. At each site, the Workshop will
convene conversations that explore the histories and legacies of racisms in these particular places, posing these histories in relation to broader conversations about the post-, non-, and anti-racisms across relational global contexts. Lectures, panel discussions and performances will draw on research from the African continent, China, Australia, the Middle East, Latin America, the Caribbean, and Euro-America, as well as on some of the oceans that connect them. More detailed information on the programme will be sent in the February JWTC newsletter.

SPEAKERS AND PERFORMERS
The 2014 Session will feature a range of local and international speakers and performers. These include: Ruha Benjamin, Keith Breckenridge, Mwelela Cele, Sharad Chari, Angela Davis, Gina Dent, Philomena Essed, David Theo Goldberg, Siba Grovogui, Ghassan Hage, Salah Hassan, Isabel Hofmeyr, Premesh Lalu, Liu Sola, Achille Mbembe, Dilip Menon, Neo Muyanga, Sarah Nuttall, Deborah Thomas, Zimitri Erasmus, Francoise Verges, Ackbar Abbas.

The deadline for applications is FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 2014. Admissions to The Workshop will be announced by early April 2014.

BLRN : Call for papers « Rush to soil and subsoil: sharing analysis »

« Rush to soil and subsoil: sharing analysis » , **2^nd workshop of the Belgian Land Research Network (BLRN)***

Université catholique de Louvain — June 5, 2014

*Call for papers: *

Throughout Belgium, a considerable number of individual researchers and research institutes work on issues of land access and control in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Too often, however, exchange of ideas and debates between these different researchers in Belgium has been limited. For this reason, a group of researchers from UCL and Ghent University established the *Belgian Land Research Network (BLRN) *in 2013*. *The BLRN aims to act as a platform for social science research on land related issues conducted at Belgian universities. It intends to become a focal point of discussion and debate for research on land related themes, including control and conflict over natural resources including mining and gas, legal pluralism and land access, agrarian reforms, food security, dispossession and agricultural change, land grabbing, and other related issues. Secondly, the BLRN intends to act as a platform between the academic world and the non-academic world of development practitioners, policy-makers, NGO workers and other interested parties. The BLRN therefore aims to build bridges between the two worlds of academic researchers and development practitioners through the organization of workshops, briefings and other events on various land-related issues.

The *second workshop*, aims to consider the process, impact and consequences of the extractive boom and land rush now observed around the world. At present, actors in the extractive sector are acquiring and exploiting a growing stock of increasingly hard to get at resources beneath the land: minerals, petroleum, natural gas, and water. As a result, overlapping uses generate numerous conflicts, putting to the fore conflicting visions of land use and development.

The workshop will develop an *overview of debate and recent research* at Belgian Universities on land access, agricultural change, extractive policies, human rights and conflict. We would like to focus on the overlapping and competing land use interests of actors involved in investing and transforming rural landscapes.We welcome presentations highlighting the heterogeneity of actors and stakes at play. We will also try to incorporate approaches and research tools implemented in studies of land use and extractive industries. The workshop will provide space for NGO and development workers to participate to the debate.

This second workshop of the BLRN will be organized on *June 5, 2014 *(8.45-18)*at UCL* (Université catholique de Louvain, in Louvain-la-Neuve, place Montesquieu, 1, LECL 93). Research contributions are welcome from Belgian universities, as well as those abroad.

*Deadline for abstracts*(max 500 words) and NGO interest to participate to the final panel: *March 30, 2014*.
Each presenter will have 15 to 20 minutes. Communication can be in French, Dutch or English (English encouraged).
Abstracts can be sent to Emmanuelle.piccoli@uclouvain.be <mailto:Emmanuelle.piccoli@uclouvain.be>
