Présentation
Is there a danger for national cultures to become open to the wider world? Is there a danger, in the 21st century, to prefer uniqueness rather than pluralism? Are we facing a levelling of cultures and rights, with a universal citizenship?
History may provide us with a few lessons on these matters. The Roman Empire may be the place where the dialectical relationship between a dominant pattern and multiple forms was experimented with to the highest degree; therefore it could prove interesting to question the extent of romanisation in the western provinces of the Empire.
Through archeology, it is possible to identify the existence of peculiar cultures well into late Antiquity. Rather than arguing in terms of dichotomy (Roman-ness or resistance), the quest for accommodation and the interplay of some complex forms with mixed traditions, will be worth investigating.
The aim of this study day is to take stock, to assess the institutional and legal consequences of acculturation phenomena, and to take a fresh look at the Roman legacy.
