La thématique retenue pour 2021 porte sur les data papers et leurs enjeux. À l’heure où plusieurs revues en sciences humaines et sociales (SHS) intègrent, ou souhaitent intégrer, des data papers à leurs formats de publications scientifiques, le colloque #dhnord2021 leur sera consacré ainsi qu'à leurs enjeux scientifiques, éditoriaux ou sociaux.

Le présent appel à contribution porte sur l'attente chez les personnages féminins au sein des récits liés à la migration, en vue d’une publication collective en lien avec la littérature italienne des XIXe, XXe et XXIe siècles.
