Announcement Calenda 1 348 645

This symposium, which will bring together several historians, will study disappearances and deaths in a colonial context in the Maghreb (19th-20th centuries), and their repercussions up to the present day, from the perspective of catastrophe (natural, health and technological). Wishing to go beyond a historiography largely dominated by wartime violence, without sidestepping it, this colloquium aims to approach disappearances and deaths through the prism of catastrophe (natural, sanitary, technological...) in a colonial context in the Maghreb.
