CfP: Border Fears in the Baltic, 1918–1991. International Conference

Fear has become a major topic in studies of emotion connected with the history and historical sociology of reciprocal perceptions in international relations. One of this topic’s most extensive aspects concerns the fear that major state agents inspire in their neighbours in a context of past or present distrust, enmity, or even aggression. These fears especially concern spatial issues, i.e. challenges to sovereignty over contested territories, where borders are at stake.

The History of Migrations in Latin America is often centered on the movement of European immigrant workers arriving from the late 19th and mid-20th centuries. However, the same period also marks an intense movement of Afro Latinos within the Americas. Called “The Great Migrations” in the United States of America, the theme is less explored in Spanish and Portuguese America, and the stories of Africans and their descendants moving around the continent, from one country to another or within the same country, are often excluded from narratives about immigrant communities.

CfP: Les sciences humaines et sociales en Amérique latine, 1950-2020

Dossier coordonné par Rafael Mandressi

Argumentaire

L’histoire des sciences humaines et sociales en Amérique Latine a donné lieu, notamment à partir des années 1990, à une littérature relativement abondante, sans être massive, très majoritairement en langue espagnole. Cette historiographie, ses reliefs, ses accents, ses zones de densité – thématiques, méthodologiques –, constituent le contexte des acquis et des lacunes au regard duquel des questionnaires et des objets d’enquête peuvent être redéfinis, prolongés ou revisités.
