Paris, 6.12. 2012. Colloque La guerre d'Algérie, une guerre comme les autres ?
Jeudi 6 décembre 2012 | Pensée | Colloque | Paris (75005)
Parce que la guerre d’Algérie n’a été officiellement reconnue telle que tardivement, en 1999, elle est souvent appelée, encore aujourd’hui, la « guerre sans nom ». En France, on en fait l’emblème d’un consensus du silence, des tabous de l’histoire, du refoulé de la pensée, de la création, de la mémoire. Et pourtant, bien avant le « saut quantitatif » impulsé dans les années 1990 par l’ouverture partielle des archives publiques de la guerre et, à partir des années 2000, les premiers travaux systématiques sur les pratiques de torture en Algérie, les productions de tous ordres sur le sujet sont massives. Davantage que d’un déficit de désignation, cette guerre semble avoir souffert de l’abondance de ses appellations concurrentes. En outre, sa perception a été brouillée par la réminiscence d’autres conflits, dont les représentations sont venues se télescoper à ses réalités propres ou, en aval, par son instrumentalisation au profit de nouveaux affrontements.. http://calenda.org/228428 .

University of Cyprus, Nicosia, April or May 2013. One-day International Workshop: "Islam in Cyprus (1878-2012)".
The intention of this workshop is to bring together researchers on “Islam in Cyprus” from different disciplines in order to trace the related historical, political, societal and religious transformation throughout the last 150 years and to shed light on the current situation.
In the context of this workshop, Islam is used as an umbrella term for Muslim communities, Islamic institutions and forms of religious practice related to Islam. Islam in Cyprus is a most complex topic which has been almost neglected in research, particularly in Religious Studies. During the last 150 years Islam was / still is - the ‘state religion’, although the Muslim community was a numerical minority; - the religion of a minority under colonial rule, and - the umbrella term for a diversity of communities and individuals with different ethnic and social backgrounds.

Deadline for abstract 30 November 2012.  Funding will be available on a limited scale. For further information contact Dr Béatrice Hendrich and Prof Martin Strohmeier, Department of Turkish and Middle Eastern Studies (http://www.ucy.ac.cy/goto/tumieastu/en-US/HOME.aspx), University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Email: hendrich.beatrice@ucy.ac.cy..
