Chères et chers collègues,
On me prie de vous signaler la tenue de ce colloque international qui pourra vous intéresser. Bien cordialement Franck Varenne - Université de Rouen > > *L'Institut français de recherche sur le Japon à la Maison > franco-japonaise, le German Institut for Japanese studies et le Nippon > Institute for Research Advancement ont** le plaisir de vous inviter à > leur prochain colloque international.* > * > * > > > The Future of Liberalism > Japan, France and Germany in Global Context > > *June 7th, 8th, 9th, 2022* > > *Program*/* (for details please see the PDF attached to this mail)*/ > > The evolution of human societies can be seen to be supported by the > rise of dominant narratives - religions or political ideologies, which > in turn reflect the technological regimes of the times (Y. N. Harari > in /Homo/ /Deus/, T. Piketty in /Capital and Ideology/). Technology > changes not only our means of production; it influences how we > interact with our environment, how we perceive ourselves and our place > in the world and what we consider as “good” or “bad”. The present > revolutions in information technology and bioscience seem to > contradict the basic assumptions of liberalism. Platform monopolies, > fake news and surveillance capitalism equally undermine liberal > institutions. > > The present pandemic has also dramatically questioned the liberal > foundations of public policies and governance in democratic regimes. > The restrictive policy measures adopted in the fight against Covid-19 > have produced “illiberal” outcomes similar to the stances taken by > populist political parties. High-level constraints impact individual > liberties, responsibility, social cohesion and/or social control, but > also free trade, competitiveness and market regulation. How far are > citizens prepared to accept trade-offs between civil liberties and > public guarantees regarding health, environment, and safety? How are > these constraints dealt with in so-called “liberal” or neoliberal” > democratic countries? > > The above issue is of central and essential concern for Japan and > Europe and their relationships with neighbors and major partners. > Taking into consideration growing pressure from a more competitive > environment, Japan and Europe need to redefine their understanding of > core values with regard to economic, social and individual rights to > redirect their relationships not only at an intellectual and > discursive level, e.g. science and “soft-power”, but also in practical > terms such as national and international policies. > > Rather than falling into the trap of cultural and civilizational > determinism, this symposium aims to stress sociopolitical, > philosophical and economic logics at work in the process of changes in > production and exchange caused by the transformation of technological > regimes and the ongoing global crisis. In doing so, we also intend to > shed renewed light on the reception and the evolution of the liberal > ideology in Asia and Europe, especially in Japan, France and Germany.** > > *Day One: Tuesday, June 7th, 2022* > > 9h30– 12h45 (CET) / 16h30– 19h45 (JST) > > Moderators: Gilles Campagnolo (CNRS, IFRJ-MFJ), Adrienne Sala (IFRJ-MFJ) > > 9:30-9:45 Opening remarks > > Philippe Setton (Ambassador of the French Republic to Japan) > Clemens von Goetze (Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to > Japan) > > 9:45-9:50 Introduction by Bernard Thomann, Director of the French > Institute of Research on Japan, MFJ > > 9:50-10:00 Presentation of the symposium by its initiators Gilles > Campagnolo and Adrienne Sala > > 10:00-10:45 Keynote speech: /*A Brief History of Equality*/ > Thomas Piketty (EHESS) > > 10:45-11:30 Round table > Thomas Piketty (EHESS), Lisa Herzog (University of Groningen), and > Shigeki Uno (University of Tokyo) > > 11:30-12:40 General discussion > > 12:40-12:45 Concluding remarks by Franz Waldenberger, Director of the > German Institute for Japanese Studies > For more information: https://www.mfj.gr.jp/agenda/2022/06/07/new_liberalism_day1/ > Click here to register: > https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_cE0sIvsEShOytikLHM8sdQ** > *Day two:Wednesday, June 8th, 2022* 8h – 13h30 (CET) / 15h – 20h30 (JST) > Discussant: Bernard Sinclair-Desgagné (Skema Business School, GREDEG) > Moderators: Gilles Campagnolo (CNRS IFRJ-MFJ), Adrienne Sala (IFRJ-MFJ) * * *Liberalism(s)/Neoliberalism(s): concepts, theories, debates* > > 8:00-9:30 */Liberalism and Uncertainty Facing Future Developments/* > Miriam Teschl (EHESS), Richard Sturn (University of Graz), Naoki > Yoshihara (University of Massachusetts Amherst) > > 9:30-9:45 Break > > 9:45-11:15 */Liberalism and Neo-liberalism as Basic Sustainable Values > /*Serge Audier (University Paris-Sorbonne), Tsutomu Hashimoto > (Hokkaido University), Yufei Zhou (Teikyo University) > > 11:15-11:30 Break > > 11:30-12:45 */Liberalism and Capitalism in Historical and > Philosophical Perspective/* > Valérie Charolles (Institut Mines-Télécom Business School, > EHESS/CNRS), Nikita Dhawan (TU Dresden), Shinji Nohara (The University > of Tokyo) > > 12:45-13:30 Discussion > For more information: https://www.mfj.gr.jp/agenda/2022/06/08/new_liberalism_day2/index.php > Click here to > register:https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_p156Qv14S-GOTXpcAU_Tuw > > *Day three: Thursday, June 9th, 2022* > > > 9h – 13h (CET) / 16h – 20h (JST) Moderators: Sébastien Lechevalier (EHESS IFRJ-MFJ), Franz Waldenberger (German Institute for Japanese Studies) > 9:00-10:30 */Technology and Capitalism > /*Franz Waldenberger (German Institute for Japanese Studies), Cedric > Durand (Univ. deGenève), Saori Shibata (Sheffield University) > > 10:30-10:45 Break > > 10:45-12:15 */Technology/**/, Digitalization and Ethics of > Responsibility/* > Yuko Harayama (Tohoku University), Joanna Bryson (Hertie School), > Mario Ionut Marosan (Univ.
