Located within the Foundation since its creation in 1998, the Center for Franco-Norwegian Cooperation in the Social and Human Sciences has just organised a three day celebration together with the Norwegian Embassy, combining it with the Hamsun Year. With the showing of Faim, a film built around Hamsun's novel published in 1890, a colloquium on Hamsun, modernity and modernism and, finally, the opening of an exhibition from the painter who illustrated Pan, another of its novels. An opportunity to appreciate its numerous activities over the years: bilateral relations between Norway and France as much for the mobility of researchers as for scientific events and publications. |

This 4th Summer University in Anthropology, which took place in July 2009, was dedicated to the new migrations in Europe (the preivous, to new anthropologies in 2006, conteporary singularities in 2007 and religions, religious and religiosity nowadays in 2008). Unique in France, this meeting gathered experts from around the world in order to open the debate as much as possible, as well as promote students mobility. This thematic enabled to cross analysis from researchers from countries involved in migratory processes, in particular Spain, Italy, France, Romania and Lithuania. It also underlined the diversity of migratory experiences, and the migrants' abilities to adapt, as well as the growing use of new technologies to symbolicaly neutralise distances. |

See full article in French Contacts – Jean-Michel Henny FMSH Publications director – Corinne Le Carrer Éditions de la MSH |
|
Last October, the FMSH launched "Place des revues" a wiki to overcome the limits of other databases dedicated to research and cultural journals. Based on web 2.0 technologies, this tool responds to the need for velocity, as much for the diffusion as for the update of datas, for a reference center and for enhancing interactivity amongst contributors. With over 300 entries at the moment (and thousands potentially), the site offers metadata information (no content on-line) for various targets: general readers, librarians, editors, booksellers and researchers. It also opens up to debate with a specific space, "Le Café", for professional discussions. |
