The interactions between humans and the rocky substrate have generated engraved landscapes across the globe, manifesting in diverse forms and spanning various epochs. The past human activity of digging rock outcrops produced different features, among which two macro-categories stand out:
– rock-cut spaces linked to human life and death;
– quarries for extracting materials for different purposes.
Although these two categories serve different functions, there are conceptual and physical links between the structures carved into the bedrock and quarry areas. Similarities can be identified in the techniques employed for rock carving and, consequently, in the networks for the transmission of knowledge and know-how. Quarries and rock-cut structures often coexist within the same rock formation, or overlap with one another, creating a complex landscape in which the interaction between human communities and the bedrock is enhanced.
Over the past decade, an international group of researchers has engaged in discussions regarding the methodological and theoretical complexities of investigating stone quarries and rock-cut sites spanning from Prehistory to the present day. The International ReseArch group on quArries and Rock-cut sites (IRAAR), started as a collaborative effort, originating in France, from two distinct research groups: one working on quarries and construction (Séminaires de recherche Carrières et construction, Laboratoire de Médiévistique Occidentale de Paris, Sorbonne Universités, UPMC Université Paris 06) and the other on rock-cut sites (Annual symposium organized in Saint-Martin-le Vieil, Aude).
This conference marks the second gathering of the IRAAR network. The first meeting, held online in 2021, focused on techniques and methods for analyzing carvings, extraction processes and traces of tools left on the rock surfaces. In this second event, the theme broadens to encompass a more extensive exploration of the landscapes and environments surrounding rock-cut structures and stone quarries. The specific discussion in this field of research begins with questions of an archaeological nature but expands to transdisciplinary encounters with connections and hybridisations with anthropology, sociology, geography, geology and ecology.

Istanbul Bilgi University is proudly hosting Loic Wacquant in collaboration with Galatasaray University and IFEA for an illuminating conference that will be accompanied by a book signing event for his recently published books by Istanbul Bilgi University Publishing.
Drawing on Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of fields of cultural production and Reinhart Koselleck’s conceptual history, I recount the tale of the academic, journalistic and policy myth of the “underclass” in the American metropolis. I use this case study to suggest rules for the construction and evaluation of concepts in social science.
Loïc Wacquant is Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Berkeley, and associate researcher at the Centre européen de sociologie et de science politique de la Sorbonne (CESSP-Paris).

The International Conference on Post-Disaster Reconstruction aims to shed light on post-earthquake reconstruction, focusing specifically on the city of Antakya/Hatay. This conference convenes academics in the field alongside international organizations like UNESCO, ICOMOS, UNDP, and the World Bank.
Through various case studies from different parts of the world, this scientific event will address the issue of reconstruction in a multidisciplinary framework, combining a technical dimension (seismology, geophysics, civil engineering, geology, earth sciences) and a social sciences perspective (architecture, sociology, anthropology, art history, archaeology, history, geography, economics, political science).This conference is organized by Gülçin Erdi (CNRS, IFEA) and Mehmet Tayfur (ENSAS, IFEA).
The conference, which will take place on May 20-21, 2024 at Galatasaray University (with a hybrid format) is supported by IFEA, CITERES - Université de Tours, Galatasaray University -Toplumsal Araştırmalar Merkezi (TAM), Hungarian Cultural Centre-Istanbul, Swedish research institute istanbul, Netherlands Institute in Turkey.

The use of plaster reliefs (stuccoes) as architectural decoration is a well-known phenomenon in the Mediterranean. Recent decades have witnessed a renewed interest in stucco, but it has been mainly done within the boundaries of specific disciplines and chronological specialisations. While this allowed scholars to recognise the relationship of stucco with specific architectural traditions and technologies, it did not allow to spot long-term trends and cross-cultural interactions. This is due to the lack of coordination of scholarship on the study of stucco, which appears to develop at different speeds and aim at different goals depending on the field of study.
The conference connects experts in the Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Islamic periods up to ca 1200 CE to address common questions that can help to see long-term phenomena and cross-cultural exchanges in the Mediterranean.

The IFEA's Observatory of Turkish Politics (OVIPOT) is pleased to invite you to the conference: "A New Political Landscape? Understanding Turkey's 2024 Local Elections", with Berk Esen (Associate Professor, Sabancı University) & Cuma Çiçek (Associate Researcher, IFEA).
The outcomes of the municipal elections held on March 31st have taken all observers of Turkish politics by surprise. This conference intends to delve into the insights gained from this significant electoral upheaval, marked by the AKP experiencing a nationwide loss in the majority of votes for the first time, and the CHP securing its most substantial victory since 1977.
How should we interpret these results, especially in light of the ruling party's significant triumph in the 2023 elections? Do these outcomes signify a shift in Turkey's electoral geography? What are the implications for the various political parties and coalitions?
This hybrid conference will be held in English at IFEA, April 18th, 2024, at 18.00.
