CfP: Hierarchies, Inequalities and Conflicts Through the Lens of Social Class (English and French)

This conference aims to bring into focus the contribution of the concept of social class to the study of various hierarchies, inequalities and conflicts. We are seeking theoretical contributions and studies on past and present phenomena and situations that use the social class as a central concept, highlighting its capacity to renew or enrich analytical perspectives (see the full CFP attached).

CfP: Online Roundtable Series on the Colonial Histories of Energy

In the 2020s, a growing number of activists and scholars have started using the term ‘green colonialism’ to describe how the burden of the ‘energy transition’ demanded at an international level is primarily borne by formerly colonised states (Hamouchene 2023; Claar 2025; Dejonghe and Van de Graaf 2025). Consequently, several scholars have attempted to develop a rigorous concept of ‘energy colonialism’ applicable to present-day examples of renewable energy mega-projects undertaken in the Global South for the benefit of the Global North (Sánchez Contreras and al. 2023; Müller 2024).

CfP: Résistances et utopies passées, présentes et à venir (French)

Paris/France

 

Face à la multiplication des crises politiques, sociales et environnementales, et devant l’intensification des offensives masculinistes, racistes, sexistes et lesbo-trans-homophobes, de nombreuses initiatives de résistance émergent, notamment dans le champ de la pensée féministe. Dans ce contexte, ce congrès se propose d’explorer les résistances et les utopies féministes à partir d’une pluralité de perspectives et de traditions philosophiques.
