La Revolución cubana se conformó, desde sus inicios, como un fenómeno de resonancias internacionales. Intelectuales de todo el mundo interpretaron y se interesaron por un proceso original dentro de las lógicas geopolíticas de la Guerra Fría. Desde 1959, intelectuales europeos, africanos, asiáticos y americanos viajaron a Cuba, establecieron conexiones con sus pares de la isla, participaron en los debates culturales y políticos del momento y cooperaron en la configuración de una comunidad a escala transnacional.
This two-day conference aims to create a framework for a broader understanding of the ways in which Spanish and non-Spanish musicians (including composers, performers, conductors, musicologists, critics, and others) relate to this key historical and ideological conflict of the 20th century. These relationships are not limited to the wartime period but also include the subsequent decades, in which a large number of musicians from Spain and abroad reflected on the confrontation and its consequences in their work.

Cette Journée d'Etudes portera sur les liens entre violence et politique dans l'Amérique Latine contemporaine (XX-XXIème). Nous nous proposons d'examiner le phénomène de la violence comme élément structurant du politique dans le sous-continent, qu'il s'agisse d'une violence d'"en haut" (contrôle, répression exercés par l'Etat), d'"en bas", sous une forme extrême ou diffuse. Nous nous interrogerons sur les modalités de manifestation et d'expression de la violence, ainsi que sur les buts qu'elle peut servir.
Four years after the foundation of NETCOR at NOVA FCSH, in Lisbon, and after several interdisciplinary meetings and congresses held in recent years in several participating research centres that were the founders of this Network, in Europe and Brazil, the II NETCOR Congress is announced.
Each summer the Marxist Literary Group membership meets for its annual Institute for Culture and Society. Over several days members convene to present papers, hold reading groups, and conduct business. Everyone from tenured faculty, graduate students, and independent scholars participate in all activities. There are no concurrent sessions, which allows for conversations to develop over the course of the institute.

ESA’s Research Network 35 “Sociology of Migration” will hold its next midterm conference at the Technical University Berlin, 10-11 September 2020. Mirroring recent trends and debates in the field of migration studies, the conference will focus on the topic of reflexivity in migration research.
The conference is organized in close cooperation with the newly founded IMISCOE Standing Committee on “Reflexive Migration Research” as well as with local organizers from TU Berlin, Cottbus University and the University of Neuchâtel.
In current research about migration, there is a growing interest in the ways in which knowledge shapes migration and the experiences and apparatuses connected to it. Researchers, thus, draw attention to the categories, technologies, and data that inform border and migration policies (and vice versa). They point to the ways in which different mobilities come to be categorized, ordered and made legible to the state. They explore how the production of mobile subjects such as “the expat” or “the illegal migrant” is interconnected with specific imaginations of nations, societies or empires.
