O Colóquio Internacional – Culturas Jovens: Afro-Brasil América pretende instaurar um espaço de debate sobre o tema apoiado no conceito de telescopia histórica. O hip hop, com seu apelo universal, cada vez mais marcado pelo policulturalismo e pelo hibridismo, exerce um papel essencial na formação dos jovens, auxiliando-os a compreender o mundo em que vivem.

Este Estado social não é para jovens

Hugo Mendes (CESNOVA – FCSH/UNL)

Resumo: Os Estados sociais dos países prósperos aprenderam a viver, desde há cerca de duas décadas, num regime de permanente dificuldades financeiras. Embora as despesas sociais tenham atingido, na maioria dos países, um tecto que se mantém relativamente inalterado, os problemas sociais a que os Estados sociais são chamados a dar resposta não diminuíram; pelo contrário, a somar aos riscos tradicionais a que os Estados sociais deram historicamente resposta - velhice, invalidez, doença e desemprego -, surgiram novos riscos que colocaram pressão financeira, institucional e política sobre a arquitectura de sistemas públicos tradicionalmente difíceis de reformar: o fenómeno da exclusão social; a entrada massiva das mulheres no mercado de trabalho; o problema dos trabalhadores pobres; o desemprego de longa duração; e a inserção profissional e protecção social dos jovens.

AnthropoChildren

AnthropoChildren is an online international Review edited at the University of Liège (Belgium).
The Review publishes original articles in the area of Social and Cultural Anthropology of Children and Childhood. It subscribes to voluntary open access in an attempt to foster debate between academics, students and professionals worldwide.

The importance of long-term fieldwork and participant observation as a scientific process and a singular relation in the construction of subject matter is a starting point for addressing questions and issues on the development of the discipline. However, even if Anthropology of Children and Childhood is a field unto itself, there is no reason to separate it from the other areas within general anthropology (kinship, religion, economics, politics, etc.). The Review aims to bring together various academic traditions so that they may enlighten each other on the basis of ethnographic fieldwork conducted in different social categories and groups, communities, institutions, and societies around the world.

The Child: A Persons Project


2nd Global Conference The Child: A Persons Project

Saturday 7th July 2012 – Monday 9th July 2012
Mansfield College, Oxford, United Kingdom

CFP: After a hiatus of one year, the Childhood Project is returning. This inter-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary conference project seeks to investigate and explore all aspects of childhood. The period of life prior to adulthood is one of dramatic change and development of physical, intellectual, psychological, and many other types of characteristics. The nature of childhood and its significance as a
separate phase of life, however, is viewed quite differently in different cultures and in different historical eras. This conference will look at all aspects of the experience of childhood as well as the social and cultural perceptions of children and childhood.
Deadline: 13th January 2012

Sugar and Spice: Global Girlhood in the Cinema/Global Cinema and the Girl

Call for articles

The figure of the girl is an intriguing one for cinema specialists. The focus of angst as possible victim of processes of 'sexualisation', the symbol of (imagined) childhood innocence, a metaphor for the uncertain and precarious nature of subjectivity, the site of intrigue and nostalgia for adults, the figure of the girls speaks to many strands of film theory and history: feminist questions of representation of female subjects, historical accounts of childhood and girlhood in the cinema, and philosophical engagements with the possibilities of the subject in film. Although recent work in sociology and film studies has addressed girlhood in Hollywood cinema as part of interest in post-feminist representations, we seek to complicate this reading through employing a comparative lens in terms of history and geography. This edited collection aims to explore the figure of the girl across time and space in the cinema. We are therefore interested in accounts from different movements and moments in global cinemas on the inflections of this figure. At this stage, we are looking to attract provisional expressions of interest that we will collate and put together as a proposal for a collection with a major publisher.

Deadline: 20th May 2012
