The primary aim is to contribute to the discussion on the concept and phenomena of transition in the broadest sense—conceived in a non-reductionist and systemic manner as a contradictory dynamic of change marked by crises, leading to a gradual and profound transformation of capitalism, the outcome of which remains undetermined. These transformations are occurring at various levels—local, regional, national, and international.

This call for papers focuses on narratives, rumors, and collective imaginaries in Africa, and their role in public policy, governance, public management, and entrepreneurship. It invites analysis of the mechanisms through which these factors influence perceptions, behaviors, institutional trust, and economic and social dynamics. Contributions may focus, in particular, on social media, misinformation, artificial intelligence, health crises, political narratives, the media, and entrepreneurial practices.

The inclusion of people with disabilities is now a matter of social justice and respect for fundamental rights. Although enshrined in international treaties, this goal is hampered by unequal spatial realities, which are particularly evident in the overseas territories. While social science research on disability has expanded, studies specifically focused on overseas territories remain scarce. Similarly, statistical data in this area is incomplete. Furthermore, the legal statuses of these territories vary. And even within the Overseas Departments, situations differ due to history, local perceptions, or delayed integration into the legal framework (Mayotte). Moreover, the scales of analysis reveal different realities—particularly striking in New Caledonia, French Guiana, and French Polynesia—between local metropolitan centers and their more or less nearby peripheries. This gives rise to significant disparities—even entirely different worlds—between the regional capitals and their surrounding areas, on one hand, and the outlying regions, on the other.

Contemporary societies are marked by crises: natural disasters, health crises, economic collapses, armed conflicts, forced displacement, and ecological disruptions. These events give rise to narratives, images, institutional discourses, and lived experiences that deserve to be examined by the humanities and social sciences.

This call for papers, intended for the December 2026 “Varia” issue of the journal Espaces Africains, focuses on spatial issues in African societies. It aims to bring together original research in the humanities and social sciences that analyzes the territorial, social, political, economic, and environmental dynamics at work on the African continent. The goal is to promote multidisciplinary approaches and disseminate scientific knowledge that is useful to the academic community, decision-makers, and the general public.

This two-day seminar examines the ways in which non-human animals are incorporated into the curricula of architecture schools. They are intended to serve as a space for sharing, connection, and debate on this topic, and to constitute a stage of collective work within a longer-term process of reflection that will culminate in the publication of a collective volume in the spring of 2028.

These two-day seminar is organized by IPRAUS (ENSAPB) in partnership with the AAU-Cresson Laboratory (ENSAG/CNRS) and will take place on March 17 and 18, 2027, at ENSA Paris-Belleville.
