While the links between the arts and politics no longer need to be demonstrated, the relationship of comics (an umbrella term covering a diversity of expressions) to / to politics has been only very rarely examined. Apart from Pascal Ory's analyses in the magazines Lire and l'Histoire and a few books, the politicist study of comics is still lacking. This situation is all the more paradoxical because, if this deficiency could long be explained by a prohibition of any explicitly political character (notably manifested in France by the 1949 law on publications for young people) or the qualification of a minor genre not worthy of scientific interest, comics have ended up being quite clearly freed from censorship and considered as an art in their own right. From then on, it is on the basis of this observation that the Polytechnic University Hauts-de-France (Valenciennes) and the University of Mons have decided to organize the colloquium " Comic(s), comics, power and politics ", on  13 and 14 October 2022, on both sites.
