Eventos Públicos IPS 2017 / IPS Public Events 2017

O Instituto de Relações Internacionais (IRI/PUC-Rio) tem o prazer de convidá-la(o) para os eventos públicos da Escola de Inverno da IPS 2017. Serão duas mesas redondas, uma no dia 29 de junho, com o tema "Structuralism and after: IPS and the Critique of Limits", e outra no dia 06 de julho com o tema "Borders, boundaries, frontiers".

"Structuralism and after: IPS and the Critique of Limits" discutirá "o limite" como um dispositivo conceitual de compromissos críticos com o "internacional" e as limitações das sociologias políticas internacionais do limite. O que a sociologia política internacional pode ser quando toma como seu ponto de partida a primazia das relações heterogêneas, desmembrando mundos e multiplicidades?

A mesa, que será realizada das 16h15 às 18h, no Auditório do RDC, PUC-Rio, terá a participação dos professores R. B. J. Walker, Michael J. Shapiro, Jef Huysmans, João P. Nogueira e Roberto Yamato.

Já no dia 06 de julho, a mesa "Borders, boundaries, frontiers", que será realizada das 16h15 às 18h, no Auditório B8*, PUC-Rio, irá abordar a questão das fronteiras e dos limites, que tiveram um papel central na definição de alguns dos marcadores conceituais, metodológicos e epistemológicos da agenda de pesquisa da IPS. Dessa forma, o painel tem como objetivo avaliar tais contribuições com foco nas formas em que eles desafiaram as fronteiras do "internacional". 

Participarão da mesa as professoras Cynthia Enloe, Heather Johnson, Carolina Moulin Aguiar e o professor Jef Huysmans.

Lembrando que o evento será ministrado em inglês e não haverá tradução simultânea.


*O Auditório B8 se localiza no 8º andar do Edifício Frings.



IPS Public Events 2017


The Institute of International Relations is pleased to invite you to 2017 IPS Winter School public events. There will be two roundtables, one on June 29, with the theme "Structuralism and after: IPS and the Critique of Limits" and others on July 6 with the theme "Borders, boundaries, frontiers"

"Structuralism and after: IPS and the Critique of Limits" will discuss ‘the limit’ as a conceptual device of critical engagements with ‘the international’ and the limitations of international political sociologies of the limit.  What can international political sociology be when it takes as it’s starting point the primacy of heterogeneous relations, fracturing worlds and multiplicities?

Professors R. B. J. Walker, Michael J. Shapiro, Jef Huysmans, João P. Nogueira and Roberto Yamato will attend the panel, which will be held at 4:15 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the RDC Auditorium, PUC-Rio.

On July 6, the "Borders, boundaries, frontiers" table, which will be held from 4:15 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., in Auditorium B8*PUC-Rio, will address the issue of borders and boundaries, that have had a central role in defining some of the conceptual, methodological and epistemological markers of IPS' research agenda. 

The panel aims at assessing such contributions with a focus on the ways in which they have challenged the frontiers of the 'international'. Cynthia Enloe, Heather Johnson, Carolina Moulin Aguiar and Professor Jef Huysmans will take part in the table.

The event will be held in English and there will be no simultaneous translation.

* The B8 Auditorium is located on the 8th floor of the Frings Building.
