Investir dans le vice peut être très lucratif. Pourtant, les individus et les fonds communs de placement ont généralement résisté à l’appât du gain et se sont montrés peu disposés à investir dans ce type d’action. Après tout, peut-on tirer une fierté de soutenir l’industrie du tabac, sachant que le produit qu’elle vend est mauvais pour la santé ? Et qu’en est-il des entreprises de jeux d’argent et de hasard ? N’ont-elles pas une responsabilité sociale envers les joueurs compulsifs qui perdent tellement d’argent qu’ils en viennent à considérer le suicide comme une option ?

Une brève histoire du vice au Canada depuis 1500 s’intéresse aux débats et aux réglementations qui ont influencé, pendant plus de 500 ans, les attitudes des Canadiens à l’égard de certains vices. Les premiers colons européens ont instauré un ordre moral chrétien régissant les comportements sexuels, les jeux d’argent et de hasard et la consommation d’alcool. Plus tard, certaines transgressions ont été considérées comme des problèmes de santé nécessitant un traitement. Ceux qui refusaient de considérer ces comportements comme des maladies affirmaient qu’ils faisaient partie de l’éventail normal des comportements humains.

Cette synthèse historique montre comment la régulation morale a évolué au fil du temps et comment elle a façonné la vie des Canadiens. Elle cherche à expliquer pourquoi certains comportements ont été ciblés pendant des périodes précises et pourquoi certains individus et groupes se sont sentis habilités à tenter de résoudre des problèmes sociaux collectifs. Avec, en toile de fond, l’évolution de l’État, l’accroissement de la participation citoyenne à la vie politique et l’usage de plus en plus fréquent des tribunaux par les activistes, l’auteur illustre la complexité des diverses formes de régulation sociale et de contrôle du vice.

Congrès des trois sociétés

Eighth Joint Meeting of the BSHS, CSHPS, and HSS

Call For Papers

22-25 June 2016, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

The eighth joint meeting of the British Society for the History of Science, the Canadian Society for the History and Philosophy of Science, and the History of Science Society will take place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Previous successful meetings were in Philadelphia (2012), Oxford (2008), Halifax, Nova Scotia (2004), St Louis (2000), Edinburgh (1996), Toronto (1992), and Manchester (1988).

The theme of the meeting will be ‘Transitions.’ Although presenters are not confined to this theme, the Program Committee is seeking papers or sessions that reflect this theme and encourages participants to consider the broader scientific, scholarly and social implications associated with moments of scientific transition. Transitions might include such ideas as moving from one scientific meme to another, one locality to another or generational change.

The programme will include themed sessions, plenary lectures and panels. A typical presentation will be 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for questions, but special sessions such as round tables and panels will be accommodated.

The conference will take place at the University of Alberta. Founded in 1905, U of A is located in Edmonton, Canada’s most northern major city. Edmonton is known as the ‘Gateway to the North’ and is the capital of the province. It is a major economic and cultural hub, situated on the banks of the North Saskatchewan River. The conference will include education and outreach activities, a reception at the Art Gallery of Alberta and a Conference Dinner. Delegates can explore the vibrant arts scene, and there are many festivals in June, including the Edmonton International Jazz Festival. Accommodation will be available on campus and near campus.

The Programme Committee welcomes proposals for sessions or individual papers based around the conference theme from researchers at all stages of their careers. Participation is in no way limited to members of the three organising societies, but there will be a discount for members. Intending participants should also note that the usual HSS rules concerning presenting at successive conferences do not apply to this meeting.

The deadline for submitting a session or paper proposal is 4 December 2015.

Full details of how to submit your session or abstract can be found at: www.uab.ca/3societies

Enquiries concerning the program should be directed to: aede@ualberta.ca

Les objets de la psychiatrie

Objects of psychiatry: Between thing-making, reification & personhood

Call for Papers

Zurich, June 8 – 11, 2016

Psychiatry is situated at the interface between the natural sciences, the social sciences and the humanities. The ensuing hybrid nature invites inter- and transdisciplinary research approaches. This conference aims to give a platform to such approaches asking the central question: Who or what is, becomes or constitutes psychiatry’s object?

Taking its starting point from the study of concrete research objects – case notes, images, films and texts, diagnostic concepts and labels, research instruments and therapeutic procedures, doctors and patients – it invites reflection on how objects are related to subjects, selves and personhood. Can this relationship be conceptualized along the lines of the traditional Western dichotomy between object and subject or does it have to be fundamentally re-thought? And is it linked to other classical dichotomies e.g. the one between matter and meaning? Is there a role for agents as object-, subject-, self- or thing-makers?
OBJECTS OF PSYCHIATRY takes up current debates within psychiatry namely the debate about the reification of psychiatric diagnoses like “schizophrenia”, but also deliberations about autonomy, human rights and participation. At the same time, it considers how the humanities situate psychiatric objects in wider societal contexts and discourses and bring into focus their historical genesis and configuration.
Drawing together heterogeneous traditions of thought and methods, it invites participants to build – and to reflect on – transdisciplinary bridges between sciences and humanities as well as between theory and practice. Contributions are invited, but not limited to, perspectives from psychiatry, philosophy, psychology, linguistics, history, history of science and medicine, neurosciences, as well as cultural, literary, film & visual studies. Medical Humanities
approaches are welcome.

International Conference organised by the interdisciplinary research project: “Schizophrenia”: Reception, semantic shift, and criticism of a concept in the 20th century. University of Zurich, Psychiatric Hospital Zurich University. http://www.schizophrenie.uzh.ch.

Histoire de la pilosité faciale

Framing the Face. New perspectives on the history of facial hair

Conference

Saturday 28th November,

Friends Meeting House, Euston Road, London NW1

Over the past five centuries, facial hair has been central to debates about masculinity. Over time, changing views of masculinity, self-fashioning, the body, gender, sexuality and culture have all strongly influenced men’s decisions to wear, or not wear, facial hair. For British Tudor men, beards were a symbol of sexual maturity and prowess. Throughout the early modern period, debates also raged about the place of facial hair within a humoural medical framework. The eighteenth century, by contrast, saw beards as unrefined and uncouth; clean-shaven faces reflected enlightened values of neatness and elegance, and razors were linked to new technologies. Victorians conceived of facial hair in terms of the natural primacy of men, and new models of hirsute manliness. All manner of other factors from religion to celebrity culture have intervened to shape decisions about facial hair and shaving. 

And yet, despite a recent growth in interest in the subject, we still know little about the significance, context and meanings of beards and moustaches through time, or of its relationship to important factors such as medicine and medical practice, technology and shifting models of masculinity. To promote research on this issue we will be hosting a one-day workshop in London.

La dispersion des maladies dans l'océan indien

Disease Dispersion and Impact in the Indian Ocean World

Call for communications

International Conference

Indian Ocean World Centre (IOWC), McGill University, Canada

23-24 September 2016

organised by the IOWC & Max Planck Fellow Group "Connectivity in Motion: Port Cities of the Indian Ocean" of the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Halle/Saale, Germany

This conference focuses on the causes, means of dispersal, geographical extent and impact of human diseases in the Indian Ocean World (IOW), from early times to the present day. The IOW, a macro-region running from Africa through the Middle East, South Asia and Southeast Asia to the Far East, comprises both continental (Asia and Africa) and maritime (Indian Ocean, China seas, Indonesian Sea) spaces. The disease histories of these regions have been affected by a number of both human and environmental factors, including war, land distribution, water storage and distribution, deforestation, migration, volcanism, cyclones, and climate change.

We welcome papers that explore the dispersion and impact of human diseases in and across the IOW in any time period, and in any region. Papers which address theoretical and methodological questions about how to study “travelling diseases” and/or epidemiological issues, on the basis of their empirical data, are also welcome. We particularly welcome interdisciplinary studies that focus on societies indigenous to the IOW, and on women and children.

The conference fee is $70 for non-students, and $35 for students. Conference participants will be required to pay for their own travel and accommodation, but refreshments, lunch and a conference dinner will be provided.

Those interested should send a title and short (1-2 paragraph) abstract to iowc@mcgill.ca, by 15 December 2015. Prospective participants will be informed if their paper has been accepted by 1 March 2015.
