  Announcement Calenda 1 404 532 (extracts)

  Universities have traditionally been places for preserving and transmitting knowledge, but today they need to rethink their role in cultural mediation. In the digital age, heritage preservation has gone beyond simple archiving or scholarly commentary to include interactive, immersive and participatory features. However, this technological transition raises a fundamental ethical and aesthetic question: how can we promote heritage, whether tangible or intangible, without betraying it?

• Le système international à l'épreuve des crises contemporaines - Revue " EMP- ABB" (Mali) - deadline (article) 30 09 2026

  Posted 05 26 2026

  Announcement Calenda 1 402 761 (extracts)

  The international system is based on a set of relationships between states, international organizations and non-state actors, framed by international law and multilateralism to preserve peace and organize global governance. However, since the end of the Cold War, this order has undergone a profound crisis, marked by geopolitical conflicts, power rivalries, the fragmentation of international institutions and the emergence of new forms of hybrid and informational conflict. At the same time, the global South, notably through the BRICS+, is asserting its growing strategic autonomy and challenging Western domination and the established international order. Against this backdrop, the Sahel is a telling example of the limits of multilateralism in the face of persistent security, political and economic crises. These mutations underline the need to rethink the international system and its governance mechanisms to meet contemporary challenges. In line with the above, the Revue de L'EMP-ABB is collecting articles for an issue on the international system.

  Online 20 05 2026

  Announcement Calenda 1 402 310 (extracts)

  The underdevelopment of African states cannot be reduced to a lack of resources; it is largely due to the mismanagement of these resources. Indeed, the continent has an abundance of resources, both natural and human. There are major mineral deposits, such as gold, diamonds, oil, gas, cobalt, uranium, bauxite, copper, coltan, manganese, iron and so on. There is no shortage of human resources to exploit these resources and accelerate development. The continent abounds in qualified human skills, such as engineers, technicians, doctors and professors. This congress on operational philosophy will examine a crucial question: can administrative ethics contribute to reducing corruption in African states?

• Les révolutions étrangères vues par la France - Université Lyon III - deadline (proposals) before 01 09 2026

  Online 29 04 2026

  Announcement Calenda 1 393 731

  The French Revolution has long been considered the matrix of all revolutions. Having "flooded its shores" with a dynamic that was "salutary and fruitful among the blessings of men", its principles and majesty inflected the destinies of neighboring peoples. What's more, for Michelet, 1789 made France the "vessel of humanity", the guide for all peoples in their quest for emancipation and freedom. In this paradigm, subsequent foreign revolutions stemmed from a unique global message delivered in France, the homeland of human rights and, as such, the beacon of humanity.
