The Resistance of Translation: Gender Studies Today<\/h1>\n

Anne Emmanuelle Berger, Cornell University<\/a><\/h2>\n

From the start, women’s and gender studies developed along a transatlantic epistemological and geopolitical axis. An interdisciplinary field, they required and fostered difficult conversations between disciplines which had each developed their own conceptual language. They are thus centrally concerned with crossing(s), whether crossing(s) functions as a political goal, a meta-metaphor for the field’s variegated theoretical endeavor, or as the name of a multi-faceted epistemological problem. This workshop focuses on the problem of translation as a form and act of crossing in the geopolitical context of globalization. It asks whether translation, a neo-humanist practice of transnational exchange premised on the irreducibility of idioms and the hospitality to differences can withstand the homogenizing pull of globalization. And it asks what the collapse of differences might do to an intellectual, political and social field whose very “raison d’\u00eatre” has been and continues to be the excavation of unrecognized or unwanted differences and the promotion of plurality.<\/p>\n

States of Emergency: The Constitutional Regime in France, Italy, Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, Belgium and Turkey <\/strong><\/h1>\n

What does emergency implies for constitutional regimes and how legal comparison can help understand it?<\/h3>\n

Eleonora Bottini, Sorbonne Law School<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The state of emergency was implemented in France in November 2015 after the terrorists\u2019 attacks in Paris and is still activated at this time. Two years after, it draws inevitably lawyers\u2019 attention to the continuing restrictions to human rights and derogations to the separation of powers inherent to emergency laws. Based on the assumption that constitutional states cannot deal effectively with emergencies, special provisions on emergency powers are inserted in constitutions and legislations in many other democracies around the world. Those provisions are supposed to be both temporary and conservative, but those conditions are not always respected. We will discuss states of emergency in various European states such as France, Italy, Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, Belgium and Turkey, as well as the role of the European Court of Human Rights in controlling those emergency legislations. The comparison aims to classify those legislations using criteria such as the legal framework (legislative or constitutional) of the emergency powers, the constitutional safeguards for the protection of some fundamental rights and the role of constitutions in dealing with emergency laws especially when they last for a considerable amount of time.<\/p>\n

How are contemporary practices of surveillance, social media,
\ndigital-ness, and data transforming the contours of subjectivity?
\nWhat modes of power and knowledge are operating on our networked
\nselves?\u00a0 How do these powers and rationalities work on a minute
\ntechnical level to reshape our identities and our identity categories?
\nThese questions have enormous stakes in our contemporary age of big
\ndata and mass surveillance.\u00a0 Their investigation can be a site of
\nproductive critique today, both interrogating the conditions of
\npossibility of subjectivity and also reinvigorating the terms of
\ncritical scholarship.\u00a0 Following the lead of Michel Foucault’s
\n“history of the present” this workshop is focused on the possibilities
\nfor critical philosophy today in the midst of emergent forms of power,
\nknowledge, and subjectivity.<\/p>\n

The Louvre on Fire: History of a False Report<\/h1>\n

Manfred Posani L\u00f6wenstein, Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al<\/h2>\n

On the last week of May 1871 Paris was burning. The terrible days remembered as Semaine sanglante<\/em> have been thoroughly studied by scholars–not just the events (the siege of Paris, the resistance of the Communards, the political and diplomatic background of the civil war), but also the legends and the false reports that spontaneously spread through the soldiers and through the public opinion of that time. But it is surprising that not a single study has been devoted, until now, to a supposed event that had a huge echo at the time. Between the 24th\u00a0<\/sup>and the 30th\u00a0<\/span>of May 1871 the newspapers of the major cities in the world trumpeted the destruction of the Louvre. Great intellectuals of the time (Friedrich Nietzsche, Gustave Le Bon) wrote about it, sometimes remembering the shock of those days years later. This workshop will explore the story of this false report as initiated by two major events that occurred in 1867: the Universal Exposition in Paris (probably the birth of modern mass tourism), and the installation of the transatlantic telegraph. In all likelihood, this is the first case of a false report distributed by mass media on a global scale.<\/p>\n
