    Language and Culture on the Margins (2024)
    Taylor & Francis | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This collection of thirteen essays examines sociolinguistic phenomena in a wide variety of marginal environments, providing both an overview of globalizaiton on the margins and a foundation for an expanded understanding of the processes of linguistic and cultural changes at work in these settings. Taking an expansive conceptual view of margins, the volume is organized in three parts, looking at examples of marginal spaces in the nation-state, in online environments, and in the peripheries of urban locations, globally to call attention to new and changing discursive genres, patterns, practices, and identities emerging in these spaces as a result of contemporary mobilities, the evolving global economy, and socio-political changes. With previous research previously confined to the study of globalization in urban areas, this volume opens the door for further research on the complex sociolinguistic processes resulting from globalization on the margins, making this an ideal resource for students and scholars in sociolinguistics, globalization and heritage studies, new media, anthropology, and cultural studies.

    Faithful Transgressions In The American West (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: The central issue Bush finds in these works is how their authors have dealt with the authority of Mormon Church leaders. As she puts it in her preface, "I use the phrase 'faithful transgression' to describe moments in the texts when each writer, explicitly or implicitly, commits herself in writing to trust her own ideas and authority over official religious authority while also conceiving of and depicting herself to be a 'faithful' member of the Church." Bush recognizes her book as her own act of faithful transgression. Writing it involved wrestling, she states, "with my own deeply ingrained religious beliefs and my equally compelling education in feminist theories that mean to liberate and empower women." Faithful Transgressions examines a remarkable group of authors and their highly readable and entertaining books. In producing the first significant book-length study of Mormon women's autobiographical writing, Bush rides a wave of memoir publishing and academic interest in autobiography and other life narratives. As she elucidates these works in relation to the religious tradition that played a major role in shaping them, she not only positions them in relation to feminist theory and current work on women's life writings but ties them to the long literary tradition of spiritual autobiography.

    The Changing Status of German Reunification in Western Diplomacy, 1955-1966 (2022)
    Johns Hopkins University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book reviews the course of NATO policy on German reunification from the perspective of West German preferences and Bonn's endeavors to have them respected in the diplomatic efforts of the major allies. With its accession to NATO, the West German government under Adenauer continued its policy of rehabilitating the German people in the eyes of the Western political community by playing a willing and sometimes leading role in joint ventures whose purpose was said to transcend the nation-state.

    Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: Ecclesiastical institutions and actors were essential for the formation of normative orders in early modern Ibero-America. In a series of seminars, organised by the Max Planck Institute for European Legal History in Mexico City, Lima, Bogotá and São Paulo, scholars from different disciplines presented innovative studies on the history of religious normativity and its practices. Based upon the Lima colloquium, the present volume focuses on the viceroyalty of Peru (16th-19th centuries).

    Words in Space and Time (2022)
    Central European University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: With forty-two extensively annotated maps, this atlas offers novel insights into the history and mechanics of how Central Europe’s languages have been made, unmade, and deployed for political action. The innovative combination of linguistics, history, and cartography makes a wealth of hard-to-reach knowledge readily available to both specialist and general readers. It combines information on languages, dialects, alphabets, religions, mass violence, or migrations over an extended period of time. The story first focuses on Central Europe’s dialect continua, the emergence of states, and the spread of writing technology from the tenth century onward. Most maps concentrate on the last two centuries. The main storyline opens with the emergence of the Western European concept of the nation, in accord with which the ethnolinguistic nation-states of Italy and Germany were founded. In the Central European view, a “proper” nation is none other than the speech community of a single language. The Atlas aspires to help users make the intellectual leap of perceiving languages as products of human history and part of culture. Like states, nations, universities, towns, associations, art, beauty, religions, injustice, or atheism—languages are artefacts invented and shaped by individuals and their groups.

    Le retour de Lyon sous l’autorité royale à la fin des guerres de Religion (1593-1597) (2022)
    LARHRA
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Henri Hours' book on the end of the League in Lyon is one of the most important works of 16th century historiography in Lyon, although very few readers have had the opportunity to consult it. This is its main paradox and the challenge of this edition. The thesis was defended at the École Nationale des Chartes in 1951, but it has never been published and, in accordance with the rules of the École, it has never been made available. Only those who knew the author were able to read it, which does not prevent it from appearing in all bibliographies concerning the Wars of Religion. Following his death in 2017 and with the agreement of his family, the Collection Chrétiens & Sociétés has decided to publish this memoir for the first time in order to make it accessible to the public in Lyon and to historians of religious confrontations. Henri Hours meticulously analysed the last years of the League at Lyon, the crucial years 1593-1597. Since 1589, the city had swayed to the side of Catholic intransigence to the point of rejecting its sovereign, Henry IV, and maintaining a costly but necessary war effort in a region crossed by denominational borders. The bishop, Pierre d'Epinac, the consuls of Lyon, the governor of the city, the Savoyard and Spanish spies, but also the street preachers and the little people who were very inclined to be alarmed, were the main actors in these events. Here we touch on the political and religious dimensions of urban history. Through municipal deliberations, correspondence, pamphleteering and some contemporary accounts, Henri Hours unravels the skein of the city's political shift towards submission to the king. By looking back at the writings of some of these actors, notably Pierre Mathieu and Claude de Rubys, he also questions the memory of the event in the consciousness of Lyon.

    Pierre et archéologie (2022)
    Presses universitaires de Perpignan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Les auteurs de cet ouvrage “ Pierre et Archéologie ”, issu du Colloque international qui s’est tenu à Tautavel (14-15 mai 1998) veulent attirer l’attention sur les nombreux aspects de l’utilisation de la pierre par l’Homme depuis la Préhistoire, et les difficultés pour comprendre et expliquer son identification, son évolution et sa conservation. Mise à part l’utilisation lointaine de la pierre par l’homme préhistorique pour assurer sa survie, il reste le domaine très vaste, plus récent dans le temps, de la pierre de taille utilisée par les hommes. Déjà les gallo-romains se sont servis des pierres dites « du midi » pour des constructions que nous connaissons bien. Mais la pierre n’est pas réservée seulement aux monuments, elle fait partie de la vie quotidienne. En dehors des grands édifices, de nombreuses habitations sont bâties en pierre et souvent leur sol est pavé de pierres. Il y a aussi l’amour de la pierre tout simplement, pour le beau, le toucher : c’est par exemple la sculpture qui agrémente les monuments et même les habitations. Les sarcophages en marbre blanc, sculptés entre la fin de l’Antiquité classique et le Haut Moyen-Age, dont le problème de l’origine est traité dans cet ouvrage, montrent bien la diversité des aspects artistiques que l’Homme a su exploiter. L’ensemble des contributions présentées apporte des données originales sur les méthodes et techniques modernes utilisées pour contribuer à mieux comprendre l’évolution culturelle et artistique de l’humanité, le devenir de la pierre extraite et la restauration des monuments. Ceci montre une fois de plus la nécessité d’une recherche pluridisciplinaire, seule démarche pour assurer la protection et la pérennité de tout ce qui touche notre patrimoine.

    De la nordicité au boréalisme (2022)
    EPURE, Éditions et presses universitaires de Reims
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In recent years, through novels and television series ("Vikings", "Millennium", "Borgen" or "Occupied"), Nordic culture has become more visible internationally. At the same time, researchers are questioning what the North is, its conceptualisation, its cultural implications, its geographical characteristics, its social and political challenges. This volume is part of the current debate on the Nordic imaginary based on a notion, Nordicity, which intersects with borealism. Plural and mobile, the North inspires both scriptural and figurative production based on desire, dream, fascination or fantasy. The real, tangible and contingent North is only the apparent surface of a manufactured and invented North. How can we express northernness today? Is a theory of the North possible? This volume attempts to answer these questions by bringing together contributions from researchers in Nordic studies, literature, linguistics and the humanities: each is given the opportunity to define his own conception of Nordicity. Ces dernières années, à travers romans et sériés télévisées ("Vikings", "Millennium", "Borgen" ou "Occupied"), la culture nordique a gagné en visibilité internationale. Simultanément, les chercheurs s'interrogent sur ce qu’est le Nord, sa conceptualisation, ses implications culturelles, ses caractéristiques géographiques, ses enjeux sociaux et politiques. Ce volume s’insère dans le débat actuel sur l’imaginaire nordique à partir d’une notion – la nordicité – qui interagit tout particulièrement avec le boréalisme. Pluriel et mouvant, moteur constant de redéfinitions, le Nord inspire une fabrication tant scripturale que figurale fondée sur le désir, le rêve, la fascination ou le fantasme. Le Nord réel, tangible contingent, n’est que la surface apparente d’un Nord fabriqué et inventé. Comment dire aujourd’hui la nordicité? Une théorie du Nord est-elle possible? Ce volume s’attache à répondre à ces différentes questions en réunissant les contributions de chercheurs en études nordiques, littérature, linguistique ou sciences humaines: chacun dispose ici d’une carte blanche pour définir sa conception de la nordicité.

    Chapter 1 Classical heritage and European identities (2021)
    Taylor & Francis | Classical Heritage and European Identities | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This book examines how different agents and institutions within the Danish nation state have situated themselves within this complex landscape of competing appropriations of classical antiquity from the eighteenth century to the present day. In particular, it focuses on the use of classical heritages to construct both European and national identities (in the plural) and especially on how Danes in this period have engaged with a sense of European commonality through their engagements with the classical past.

    La sociologie malgré tout (2021)
    Presses universitaires de Paris Nanterre
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Si c’est « malgré tout » qu’il faut défendre la sociologie, c’est malgré ce qu’elle est devenue. Bien loin de ses grandes espérances initiales et des splendeurs que nous ont léguées les Durkheim, Weber, Simmel, Mead, Elias, Mauss, etc. Ce que l’on appelle sociologie s’est peu à peu recroquevillé jusqu’à apparaître comme la « science (ou la pseudo science) des restes », la science de ce dont ne parlent ni les philosophes, ni les économistes, ni les historiens, ni les anthropologues, ni les théoriciens de la littérature, etc. Éclatée en de multiples chapelles théoriques ou idéologiques, privée de colonne vertébrale paradigmatique et institutionnelle, elle ne croit plus pouvoir trouver son unité que dans une référence de plus en plus incantatoire au « terrain » et à l’empirisme, et dans ses querelles infinies sur ce qui fait la bonne méthode ou le bon terrain. La sociologie classique, celle qu’il nous faut faire revivre et actualiser, se présentait tout autrement. Elle revendiquait hautement une approche empirique de la réalité et le souci d’établir des faits, elle aussi, mais elle n’imaginait pas que ce puisse être accompli hors-théorie et sans enjeux normatifs, c’est-à- dire éthiques et politiques... Dit autrement, elle se vivait comme le lieu et le moment généraliste de la science sociale générale. C’est cette sociologie là, autrement dit la science sociale générale, qui nous fait désormais défaut et qu’on appelle ici à renaître de ses cendres.

    Chapter 1 Dimensions of European heritage and memory (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This book is a reflection on the politics of heritage in Europe at the present time, in a moment of pluralised conceptions of the political, social and demographic organisation proper to Europe. It is not a book that seeks to survey, define or characterise an enduring ‘European heritage’ as an entity, but rather to explore what heritage does – how it is understood, instrumentalised and what it enables – within what we will argue is a ‘critical’ moment for both identities and geopolitics in Europe.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Dans le sport, l'innovation s'impose de façon non équivoque, au moins en comparaison avec d'autres domaines de la vie sociale. La maîtrise de l'innovation - qu'elle soit ou non technique - et l'obligation de maintenir la recherche de solutions nouvelles sont bien des facteurs d'accès indispensables à la réussite sportive. Des chercheurs en sociologie, histoire économique, management et gestion des entreprises, sciences du sport et communication, ont confronté leurs travaux sur l'évolution de sports aussi divers que l'aviron à ses débuts, le rugby amateur ou professionnel, le football, la voile de compétition, le surf et les sports de glisse en Aquitaine, avec un grand crochet par la Martinique pour les compétitions de yoles martiniquaises… Ils examinent les conditions d'émergence et les multiples configurations que peut prendre l'innovation. Ils dégagent la morphologie des processus d'innovation également étudiés sous l'angle des politiques publiques territoriales et au sein d'associations sportives ou de clubs omnisports marqués depuis peu par des phénomènes de professionnalisation.

    Description: The 43rd UID conference, held in Genova, takes up the theme of ‘Dialogues’ as practice and debate on many fundamental topics in our social life, especially in these complex and not yet resolved times. The city of Genova offers the opportunity to ponder on the value of comparison and on the possibilities for the community, naturally focused on the aspects that concern us, as professors, researchers, disseminators of knowledge, or on all the possibile meanings of the discipline of representation and its dialogue with ‘others’, which we have broadly catalogued in three macro areas: History, Semiotics, Science / Technology. Therefore, “dialogue” as a profitable exchange based on a common language, without which it is impossible to comprehend and understand one another; and the graphic sign that connotes the conference is the precise transcription of this concept: the title ‘translated’ into signs, derived from the visual alphabet designed for the visual identity of the UID since 2017. There are many topics which refer to three macro sessions: - Witnessing (signs and history) - Communicating (signs and semiotics) - Experimenting (signs and sciences) Thanks to the different points of view, an exceptional resource of our disciplinary area, we want to try to outline the prevailing theoretical-operational synergies, the collaborative lines of an instrumental nature, the recent updates of the repertoires of images that attest and nourish the relations among representation, history, semiotics, sciences.

    Printing and Prophecy (2021)
    University of Michigan Press | University of Michigan Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: "Printing and Prophecy: Prognostication and Media Change 1450-1550 examines prognostic traditions and late medieval prophetic texts in the first century of printing and their effect on the new medium of print. The many prophetic and prognostic works that followed Europe's earliest known printed book—not the Gutenberg Bible, but the Sibyl's Prophecy, printed by Gutenberg two years earlier and known today only from a single page—over the next century were perennial best sellers for many printers, and they provide the modern observer with a unique way to study the history and inner workings of the print medium. The very popularity of these works, often published as affordable booklets, raised fears of social unrest. Printers therefore had to meet customer demand while at the same time channeling readers' reactions along approved paths. Authors were packaged—and packaged themselves—in word and image to respond to the tension, while leading figures of early modern culture such as Paracelsus, Martin Luther, and Sebastian Brant used printed prophecies for their own purposes in a rapidly changing society. Based on a wide reading of many sources, Printing and Prophecy contributes to the study of early modern literature, including how print changed the relationship among authors, readers, and texts. The prophetic and astrological texts the book examines document changes in early modern society that are particularly relevant to German studies and are key texts for understanding the development of science, religion, and popular culture in the early modern period. By combining the methods of cultural studies and book history, this volume brings a new perspective to the study of Gutenberg and later printers."

    Description: Los avances de las llamadas ciencias duras, las ingenierías y las ciencias básicas son un hecho, al punto que son los motores de mayor fuerza en los avances científicos en las últimas décadas. También es un hecho que el sentido de utilidad del conocimiento, el papel de la innovación de las ciencias ha cobrado fuerza y valor situando a las Humanidades en niveles cada vez más distantes aparentemente, de los centros de toda de decisiones en los problemas de nuestro tiempo (Acevedo y Prada Dussán, 2017). En la actualidad la atención del pensamiento está centrado en “en un ‘enfoque orientado al mercado’, que favorece las ciencias biológicas, médicas y tecnológicas, y ha ayudado a reforzar una jerarquía disciplinaria en la que (…) [las] artes y Humanidades han luchado por llamar la atención” Hazelkorn (2015, p. 1).

    Associative Governance in Scandinavia (2024)
    Taylor & Francis | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: This edited volume explores a variety of aspects of associative governance, providing detailed case studies of associations and associational governance in Scandinavia. Theoretically developing a concept and approach of associative governance, the book sheds light on a dynamic way of perceiving associative aspects of community and commercial life that has been hitherto underexplored and undertheorized. It shows how governance by associations may be conducted not only bottom‑up by self‑organized and voluntary participation, but also top‑down by authoritative incorporation through government, and – not least – in multifarious interstices in between. New section by exploring a vibrant panoply of dimensions of associative governance, empirically grounded in historical analyses of a wide range of organizational repertoires, the book may provide novel insights into the significant role of associative governance in Scandinavia over the past two centuries. Finally, it provides research‑based knowledge about how to maintain “good political and economic institutions” in the future and a more holistic and dynamic approach to the literature on The Nordic model.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Depuis quelques années, le Brésil occupe une place de plus en plus importante sur la scène internationale en conséquence de grands changements socio-économiques – et plus particulièrement d’une réduction significative de la pauvreté et de l’inégalité des revenus. Cet ouvrage vise à présenter au public francophone, y compris au lecteur profane en matière de politique sociale brésilienne, la mise en place et l’évolution des différents programmes d’allocations sociales, dont le plus connu est la Bourse-Famille. L’analyse porte sur les caractéristiques de base de ces programmes, leurs formats, les changements conceptuels intervenus au cours du temps, le ciblage des bénéficiaires, les effets des allocations sur la composition du revenu des ménages ainsi que sur le déclin de la pauvreté et de l’inégalité. Enfin, l’accent est mis sur les défis à relever pour perfectionner cette politique des allocations afin de mieux protéger les enfants pauvres, la population la plus vulnérable actuellement.

    Placing Empire (2021)
    University of California Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Placing Empire examines the spatial politics of Japanese imperialism through a study of Japanese travel and tourism to Korea, Manchuria, and Taiwan between the late nineteenth century and the early 1950s. In a departure from standard histories of Japan, this book shows how debates over the place of colonized lands reshaped the social and spatial imaginary of the modern Japanese nation. In turn, this sociospatial imaginary affected the ways in which colonial difference was conceptualized and enacted. The book thus illuminates how ideas of place became central to the production of new forms of colonial hierarchy as empires around the globe transitioned from an era of territorial acquisition to one of territorial maintenance.

    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Dans cet ouvrage collectif placé sous la direction de Jean-Louis Leleu et Pascal Decroupet, la musique de Pierre Boulez est approchée de façon à la fois analytique et esthétique : l'approche rigoureuse du langage musical conduit à des réflexions sur ses enjeux. Les différents auteurs nous font entrer dans l'atelier du compositeur, éclairant ses procédés d'élaboration, les mutations d'une œuvre à l'autre, l'évolution de sa pensée, les projets inaboutis et certains éléments qui l'ont influencé. Sont étudiées en détail des pièces comme le Livre pour quatuor, Le Marteau sans maître, la Troisième Sonate pour piano, Figures, Doubles, Prismes, Éclat/Multiples ou Rituel, mais aussi des pièces retirées. Il s'agit de contributions originales qui apportent une somme d'informations nouvelles et décisives pour la compréhension d'une pensée musicale ayant marqué en profondeur les cinquante dernières années. Pour qu'ils soient plus lisibles et plus faciles à consulter, les exemples musicaux et les fac-similés des manuscrits de Boulez ont été gravés sur le CD-ROM joint.

    L'École et l'espace local : Les enjeux des Zones d'Éducation Prioritaires (2021)
    Presses universitaires de Lyon
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Mises en place en 1981, les zones d'éducation prioritaires (ZEP) font désormais partie du paysage éducatif français. Pourtant, on connaît encore mal les évolutions et les effets d'une politique fondée sur la prise en charge collective et décentralisée des problèmes éducatifs. L'analyse sociologique telle qu'elle est menée ici conduit à mettre 1 accent sur les conditions locales qui favorisent ou qui freinent 1 investissement scolaire des parents, des enseignants et de nouveaux acteurs du champ éducatif : élus, animateurs, bénévoles... A travers une approche ethnographique comparative - une zone rurale et une zone urbaine sont étudiées parallèlement - qui se nourrit des apports des travaux anglo-saxons, l'auteur présente une réflexion nouvelle sur le rôle des dynamiques locales dans la reproduction et dans la transformation du système éducatif.

    La ville moyenne dans sa région : Pau, les Pays de l’Adour et l’Aquitaine (2021)
    Maison des Sciences de l’Homme d’Aquitaine | Maison des Sciences de l'homme d'Aquitaine
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: La recherche et l'aménagement du territoire des années 1960 nous ont légué l'image persistante de réseaux urbains régionaux et nationaux, construits sur la base de rapports hiérarchiques entre des villes de stature et de rayonnement inégaux. Comment ces positions, assignées par la puissance objective des agglomérations, mais aussi par la représentation et par la volonté aménagistes ont-elles évolué depuis près de trente ans ? Pour répondre à cette question, nous avons choisi de partir du cas spécifique de Pau, promue sous-capitale régionale par le schéma d'armature urbaine de l'Aquitaine (1965), mais soucieuse aussi, dès cette époque, d'affirmer son leadership sur l'aire quelque peu mythique des Pays de l'Adour, concurremment à Tarbes et surtout à Bayonne. Pour tenter d'éclairer, aujourd'hui, l'actualité des hiérarchies, des concurrences et des complémentarités entre cités, s'exprimant dans le cadre de l'Aquitaine (et au-delà lorsque les frontières administratives ne correspondent plus à l'articulation des réseaux), nous avons privilégié une approche des rapports urbains qui passe par l'étude de l'économie, de la géographie, mais aussi de la sociologie des services marchands aux entreprises. La poussée de ces activités de pointe illustre en effet l'expansion rapide d'un secteur tertiaire supérieur très expressif de l'Influence réelle qu'exercent les villes sur l'espace géographique ; très démonstratif de leur capacité, en somme, à forger des régions.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: L’ex-voto est un don fait par un fidèle à un personnage céleste en remerciement d’une protection. En Provence, pendant plus de trois siècles, ces ex-voto ont souvent pris la forme d’un petit tableau déposé dans un sanctuaire, montrant le protecteur et les circonstances de la protection. Ces tableaux votifs présentent des images de la vie d’autrefois, dans des circonstances particulières, celles du danger, qui ont motivé la demande d’intervention céleste. À côté de ces scènes du vécu quotidien, ils offrent aussi une représentation du sacré, et de son lien avec les hommes. Le présent ouvrage se fonde sur une analyse exhaustive des quatre mille ex-voto provençaux, mais en présente une version destinée à un large public. En effet il est construit à partir de la reproduction photographique de plus de deux cents ex-voto, dont la majorité inédits. Ce sont ces photos qui servent de support à l’analyse et au commentaire, faisant pénétrer le lecteur dans l’univers matériel quotidien (maladies, naissances, accidents du travail, accidents de la circulation terrestre et maritime, guerre et violence, dangers de la foudre ou des eaux…) et dans les représentations des recours célestes de nos ancêtres (les saints intercesseurs, Marie…), face au danger.

    Description: Comment les consommateurs arbitrent entre santé et plaisir, nutrition et saveur, bienséance et confort, croyance et science, tempérament et pression sociale, innovation et habitude, ou encore considérations éthiques et servitudes quotidiennes. Quelle légitimité accordent-ils aux paroles d’interlocuteurs venant d’horizons divers - de la médecine à la publicité, du gouvernement à la philanthropie - et qui diffusent messages et recommandations concernant la nourriture et l’hygiène de vie ? Ce sont les questions qui animent ce livre. Les chapitres contribuent à la restitution de l’univers informationnel des consommateurs depuis le XIVe au XXe siècle. Ils s’attachent à décrire et expliquer l’émergence et le fonctionnement des repères qui permettent de nous orienter dans les marchés alimentaires et des services qui s’y rattachent. Les thèmes concernent l’identification des produits et de leurs caractéristiques, l’imagination liée à l’alimentation et à la cuisine, et l’intervention des autorités publiques dans les transactions alimentaires.

    Sociologie et société québécoise : Présences de Guy Rocher (2021)
    Presses de l’Université de Montréal
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Suivre l’itinéraire universitaire et politique de Guy Rocher, c’est littéralement refaire l’histoire du Québec de la dernière moitié du siècle dernier. Qu’on ne s’étonne donc pas que cet ouvrage aborde tout autant l’œuvre du sociologue que, plus largement, les boule­ver­sements d’une société confrontée aux défis incessants de sa modernisation. Si les témoignages nous font pénétrer dans l’intimité de l’homme et du citoyen, les analyses signées par des professeurs de renom nous dévoilent, sous un jour neuf, le paysage social, politique et scientifique du Québec. Écrits à partir de perspectives disciplinaires les plus diverses (science politique, droit, sociologie, histoire, etc.), les textes qui composent cet ouvrage nous permettent de mieux comprendre, non seulement l’évolution globale de la société québécoise, mais les enjeux bien contemporains que l’histoire a légués en héritage à la génération présente. Guy Rocher est né à Berthierville en 1924. Ses études classiques terminées, il joint les rangs de la Jeunesse étudiante catholique. Il fait par la suite ses études en sciences sociales à l’Université Laval avec le père Georges-Henri Lévesque et son doctorat en sociologie à l’Université Harvard sous la direction de Talcott Parsons. À son retour, il enseigne la sociologie d’abord à l’Université Laval puis, en 1960, il accepte le poste de directeur du Département de sociologie à l’Université de Montréal, dont il est toujours membre du corps professoral. Depuis 1983, il est aussi chercheur au Centre de recherche en droit public de cette même université. Il a été membre de la commission Parent (1961-1966), sous-ministre au Développement culturel (1977-1979) et au ministère du Développement social (1981-1983) du Gouvernement du Québec. Il est récipiendaire de plusieurs prix académiques, dont le prix Marcel-Vincent, le prix Léon-Gérin, le prix Molson, et le prix William Davidson de la Société royale du Canada, dont il est membre depuis 1974. Son ouvrage Introduction à la sociologie générale (1968) a été traduit en plusieurs langues et est encore aujourd’hui un livre de référence majeur pour l’enseignement de la sociologie.

    Moustiquaires imprégnées et résistance des moustiques aux insecticides (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Le contrôle du paludisme requiert plusieurs moyens de lutte associés au sein de stratégies adaptées au contexte environnemental et épidémiologique. Les moustiquaires imprégnées de pyréthrinoïdes constituent l’un des outils préventifs dans cette lutte : leur utilisation est simple et permet une protection individuelle et collective durable et accessible à tous. Cependant, depuis plus de dix ans, Anopheles gambiae, le principal vecteur du paludisme en Afrique, est devenu résistant à de nombreux insecticides. Cette résistance pose des questions d’ordre fondamental et opérationnel : le comportement des moustiques s’en trouve-t-il modifié ? Cette résistance s'accompagne-t-elle d'une réduction significative de l'efficacité des moustiquaires imprégnées ? À travers la synthèse de travaux de recherche réalisés tant en laboratoire que sur le terrain, cet ouvrage révèle pourquoi les moustiquaires imprégnées d'insecticides resteront, pendant longtemps encore, une arme indispensable dans la lutte contre le paludisme.

    Description: Kazimierz Moczarski (1907–1975) was a journalist, soldier, and political prisoner. His life exemplifies a Central European biography under Nazism and Comunism. The addictive and moving Civility in Uncivil Times reveals the story of a man who defended law and democracy all his life. Moczarski fought for it in the authoritarian Poland of the 1930s. During the Second World War, he partook in the resistance movement. After the war, he spent eleven years in a Stalinist prison, including nine months in one cell with the Nazi Jürgen Stroop, who commanded the brutal pacification of the Warsaw Ghetto. The communists imprisoned Moczarski’s wife. After release, he rebuilt the broken marriage, rejoined social life, and wrote a work about meeting Stroop. Translated into many languages, Conversations with the Executioner is a thorough study of totalitarianism.

    Description: The buildings erected in his native city by the Roman emperor Septimius Severus are amongst the most impressive and best-preserved in the Roman world. Because of their unique state of preservation, they give an unparalleled insight into what an architect with an imperial commission could do, when he had the building-materials and technical expertise of the entire empire at his disposal.〈br/>〈br/>The buildings excavated by Italian teams between the two World Wars were examined in detail by Ward-Perkins between 1948 and 1953. The study was never completed in his lifetime, though the drawings and much of the text existed at least in draft form. The present publication puts these in the public domain, together with Ward-Perkins' authoritative insights into the process by which such a grand project was executed.

    Description: St Peter's, Barton-upon-Humber, is a redundant medieval church in the care of English Heritage. As a result of a major program of research carried out between 1978 and 2007, it is now the most intensively studied parish church in the UK. Excavations between 1978 and 1984 investigated most of the interior of the building, as well as a swathe of churchyard around its exterior. At the same time, a stone-by-stone record and detailed archaeological study of the fabric and furnishings of the church was undertaken, continuing down to 2007. The twin aims of the project were to understand the architectural history and setting of this complex, multi-period building (Volume 1, Parts 1 and 2) and to recover a substantial sample of the population for palaeopathological study (Volume 2). An extensive program of historical and topographical research also took place in order to set the archaeological evidence firmly in context.

    El Jurista en el Nuevo Mundo (2021)
    Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: "The present work addresses the history of Derecho Indiano (Spanish Colonial Law) and proposes to examine the role played by Indiano-Castilian jurists in the New World as creators and enforcers of a science and the practice of law. They were given the task of organising and developing public authorities as well as the new society, and in their engagement with the temporary institutions, they were confronted with realities and situations as diverse as they themselves proclaimed them to be. The works brought together in this volume originally appeared in journals and collected works from different countries, and they are now being presented here in a revised edition. Castile was the kingdom overseeing the expansion across the Atlantic; an expansion to lands and peoples unknown to Europeans up till that point in time. The jurists who worked under these new and challenging circumstances belonged to the Castilian tradition, and they were immersed in this tradition not only due to their university education, but also as a result of their cultural environment and the very structure of the governing bodies and justice system of the kingdom. The confrontation with a reality that was, in so many respects, different from that of the Peninsular – as could already clearly be seen in accounts written by conquistadors, missionaries and the authorities from the early days – encouraged jurists to search for solutions to the new problems that had arisen. Over the years, this led to the creation of what would eventually shape a heterogeneously composed normative corpus, both in civil and canon terms. The differences between the Indiano and Castilian systems were marked to the point that it became a widely accepted truth that the Indiano order could not be fully understood or taken into account either by the advisors of Castile or the lawyers who travelled to the Americas with no prior knowledge of this particular law. Jurists who were born or based in the Indiano provinces would often come to discover the “constitutional discourse” of the monarchy; in other words, they experienced the unfolding plot, so to speak, not through theory, but rather through the impetus provided by the possible solutions to the numerous issues that had arisen. Although Castilian legal literature, which exerted a powerful influence, was present and being circulated throughout the Americas, preferences when it came to specific authors and legal bodies were as different as the readings and interpretations made of them. Several criteria both general and specific in nature took shape. Consequently, “local contexts”, for example, were often discussed in the application of general norms and the “customary background” was similarly taken into account."

    Sous les images, la politique… : Presse, cinéma, télévision, nouveaux médias (xxe-xxie siècle) (2021)
    CNRS Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: L'image est un média, peut-être le premier, le plus ancien. Depuis Lascaux, les individus, les groupes, les pouvoirs politiques et religieux en ont fait un allié ou un péril. Tout au long du xxe siècle, les images se sont immiscées partout. Acheminées par le cinéma, la télévision ou la presse écrite, véhiculées par Internet, elles s'installent au cœur du public comme du privé. Avec l'émergence des médias de masse, l'image et la politique ont renforcé leurs liens, forgeant une relation où les deux champs s'interpellent et se nourrissent intensément. L'étude du champ politique doit donc se saisir de ce corpus toujours plus foisonnant. Elle doit s'y atteler sans se fixer de limites a priori sur une définition des images politiques et sans se contenter d'étudier leur contenu (politique). Réunissant une trentaine de contributions dans une perspective internationale et interdisciplinaire, cet ouvrage croise les supports, les espaces socioculturels et les temporalités afin de mettre au jour les invariants et les ruptures, qu'il s'agisse du choix des thèmes ou des modes de mise en scène de la politique à chaque époque ou selon chaque régime. Couvrant les xxe et xxie siècles, l'ouvrage permet de relier différentes « époques médiatiques » et de voir les continuités, les filiations, les apports, les recompositions et les complémentarités entre des médias dits traditionnels (cinéma, télévision, photographie, presse écrite) et les nouveaux médias à l'âge du numérique (Internet, téléphones portables, jeux vidéo) dans leur façon de s'emparer ou d'être saisis par la politique.

    Description: This book is a collection of essays by prominent historians from Austria, Germany, Ukraine, Poland and Russia, who undertook a thorough and detailed study of one as yet inadequately researched aspect of the First World War--the occupation of Ukraine by the Central Powers in 1918. The book provides a new and fresh perspective on the historical context of Ukraine’s struggle for independence following the First World War.
    Description: Die Ukraine war zu Ende des Ersten Weltkrieges zwischen den Zwängen des zerfallenden Russischen Reiches, den Mittelmächten, die große Gebiete besetzten, und einer starken, aber zersplitterten Unabhängigkeitsbewegung, eingezwängt. Erstmals versucht mit dieser Studie ein internationales Historikerteam mit Materialien aus Archiven in Moskau, St. Petersburg, Kiew, Warschau, Wien, London, Paris, Bern, Prag, Washington und aus den deutschen Archiven ein faszinierendes Bild des Unabhängigkeitszwanges der Ukraine zu zeichnen. Dabei wurde auch ein bisher kaum bearbeitetes Thema aufgebrochen: Die vielfach rücksichtslose Besatzung des Landes durch deutsche und österreichischungarische Truppen 1918 und ihre Auswirkungen und Folgen.

    Displaced Memories (2021)
    Peter Lang International Academic Publishing Group
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: The book is a comparative case study of collective memory in two small communities situated on two Central-European borderlands. Despite different pre-war histories, Ukrainian Zhovkva (before 1939 Polish Żółkiew) and Polish Krzyż (before 1945 German Kreuz) were to share a common fate of many European localities, destroyed and rebuilt in a completely new shape. As a result of war, and post-war ethnic cleansing and displacement, they lost almost all of their pre-war inhabitants and were repopulated by new people. Based on more than 150 oral history interviews, the book describes the process of reconstruction of social microcosm, involving the reader in a journey through the lives of real people entangled in the dramatic historical events of the 20th century.

    1989 and the West (2023)
    Taylor & Francis | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Back in 1989, many anticipated that the end of the Cold War would usher in the ‘end of history’ characterized by the victory of democracy and capitalism. At the thirtieth anniversary of this momentous event, this book challenges this assumption. It studies the most recent era of contemporary European history in order to analyse the impact, consequences and legacy of the end of the Cold War for Western Europe. Bringing together leading scholars on the topic, the volume answers the question of how the end of the Cold War has affected Western Europe and reveals how it accelerated and reinforced processes that shaped the fragile (geo-)political and economic order of the continent today. In four thematic sections, the book analyses the changing position of Germany in Europe; studies the transformation of neoliberal capitalism; answers the question how Western Europe faced the geopolitical challenges after the Berlin Wall came down; and investigates the crisis of representative democracy. As such, the book provides a comprehensive and novel historical perspective on Europe since the late 1980s.

    Dogmatism (2024)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Why does the history of dogmatism deserve our attention? This open access book analyses uses of the term, following dogmatism from Victorian Britain to Cold War America, examining why it came to be regarded as a vice, and how understandings of its meaning have evolved. Whilst the field of scientific thought is committed to continuous innovation, ideas about dogmatism – with their roots in ancient philosophy – are pervasive in scientific thought today. Carrying connotations of both vice and ecclesiastical authority, the term’s prevalence during the ‘age of science’, and the rise of new thought categories such as totalitarianism and creationism, prompted scholars to repeat the old wisdom that science is incompatible with dogmatism. Tracing the concept across decades and different disciplines, Paul and Stoeger demonstrate how it has survived not only the passage of time, but changes in language and scientific methodologies. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Dutch Research Council (NWO).

    Sport et santé : Sortir des contradictions, apporter des solutions (2021)
    Maison des Sciences de l’Homme d’Aquitaine
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: La 26e Université Sportive d'Été organisée conjointement par l'Union Nationale des Clubs Universitaires et l'Union des Journalistes de Sport en France s'est déroulée du 4 au 6 septembre 2008 sur le thème suivant : Sport et Santé, sortir des contradictions, apporter des solutions. Organisée à Strasbourg, avec le soutien efficace du Strasbourg Université Club, elle a largement profité du rayonnement international de la Cité, en étant accueillie au Centre Européen de la Jeunesse et en ouvrant ses séquences d'analyse, de présentation d'expériences novatrices et de débats à des compétences européennes de premier plan. « Le sport, c'est la santé » : ce type d'adage à la vie opère comme un écran de fumée par rapport à la réflexion et à la valorisation d'une action cohérente, d'autant que les termes de sport et de santé recouvrent chacun des notions différentes et pas toujours complémentaires. Comment renouer avec l'éducation sportive - chez l'athlète assidu comme chez des pratiquants ayant une simple activité d'entretien physique - sinon en remettant à l'ordre du jour l'examen des interactions dynamiques entre sport et santé ? « Sport et santé » composent une question majeure posée à et par une société plus que jamais marquée par la sédentarité, le vieillissement de la population et des inégalités socio-économiques persistantes. A l'occasion de cette USE, chercheurs universitaires, enseignants d'EPS, éducateurs et dirigeants sportifs, élus politiques et acteurs administratifs, journalistes, porteurs de projets ont pu se montrer à la hauteur des enjeux en ébauchant des orientations pertinentes.

    Chapter Rereading Italian Travellers to Africa: Precursors, Identities and Interracial Relations in Narratives of Italian Colonialism (2022)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This essay considers a number of travellers’ writings about Africa which are reread to construct and deconstruct Italian colonial identity. It focuses on Cesare Cesari’s Viaggi africani di Pellegrino Matteucci (1932), which deems Matteucci a precursor of Fascist colonialism and contributor to Fascist “colonial science”. The essay then moves on to explore the more recent rereading by Angelo Del Boca and Igiaba Scego of respectively Indro Montanelli’s XX Battaglione Eritreo (1936) and Errico Emanuelli’s Settimana nera (1961). By bringing together and rereading these texts, the essay maps the transformations of Italianness from colonial to postcolonial times and reveals how colonial identity relied on a series of gender, racial and sexual tropes of exploration and conquest.

    Nutraceuticals and Human Health (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: In this Special Issue, we have published papers on the health-promoting effects of nutraceuticals from different sources, and their effects in different pathologies. Extracts from plants have been analyzed, for example, extracts from olive leaves, Mikania micrantha, the devil’s claw, raspberries and others, alongside marine phytoplankton, egg-yolk and marketed dietary supplements. The effects of these extracts and dietary supplements have been studied in diseases associated with obesity, and in diseases where inflammation pathways are involved. The effectiveness of resveratrol and curcumin to support the anticancer activity of cisplatin has also been reported, as well as the ability of devil’s claw root extract to stimulate the CB2 receptors in synoviocytes in osteoarthritis patients. The anti-oxidant effect of marine phytoplankton has been studied on muscle damage, both in humans and in an animal model, and the effects of the metabolite of antocianin were analyzed in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Finally, reviews on the use of lactoferrin, ω3 and ω6 and abscisic acid have been reported, in addition to the crosstalk between prostate cancer and microbiota inflammation. Although it is not yet possible to draw definitive conclusions on the use of nutraceuticals, several mechanisms of action for many of them have been further clarified.

    Implementation and Scale Up of Point of Care (POC) Diagnostics in Resource-Limited Settings (2021)
    MDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Scale up and implementation of new point-of-care (POC) diagnostics is a global health priority to enable the adoption of new evidence-based POC diagnostics and to replicate and extend the reach of POC diagnostics. Global private and public sector agencies have significantly increased their investment in the development of POC diagnostics to meet the unmet needs of patients in resource-limited settings, particularly disease burdened settings with limited access to laboratory infrastructure. However, previous research has demonstrated that the availability of health technologies in these settings does not always guarantee patient-centered outcomes. The applicability, effectiveness and sustainability of diagnostic technologies is affected by the involvement of all stakeholders during planning and implementation, which must be relevant to each specific context and sensitive to local culture. Factors such as infrastructure, resources, values and characteristics of participants can influence the implementation, scalability and sustainability of health interventions such as POC diagnostics. This book, “Implementation and Scale up of Point of Care (POC) Diagnostics in Resource-Limited Settings”, presents literature reviews and primary research studies focusing on the implementation and scale up of POC diagnostics in resource-limited settings.

    Populations réfugiées : De l’exil au retour (2021)
    IRD Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Les migrations internationales sont devenues l'un des enjeux majeurs des rapports entre les États. Dans ce cadre, les mouvements de réfugiés et de déplacés liés aux conflits politiques, identitaires ou territoriaux témoignent de la fragilité de constructions nationales encore si souvent contestées. Les principales modalités d'accueil des réfugiés montrent bien les obstacles à l'intégration comme les limites d'une assistance humanitaire dont l'action reste plus curative que préventive. Mais la paix revenue, le retour et la réintégration des réfugiés dans leur pays d'origine se heurtent encore à des difficultés politiques, juridiques et économiques qui sont autant de freins à la reconstruction nationale et qui, par là même, dessinent les migrations internationales du futur. Tels sont quelques-uns des grands thèmes évoqués dans les différentes contributions de cet ouvrage, dont certaines, comme celles sur les camps palestiniens du Liban, sur la revendication territoriale des Sahraouis ou encore sur le difficile retour des réfugiés cambodgiens, sont d'une actualité toujours brûlante.

    Junian Latinity in the Roman Empire Volume 1 (2023)
    Edinburgh University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book offers new historical, legal and literary explorations of a status held by uncountable formerly enslaved persons in the Roman Empire: Junian Latinity. It is the first book in any language to provide comprehensive multi-disciplinary study of this status. Divided in two parts, the book sets the scene with six chapters that discuss the legal innovations that created Junian Latinity, as well as the historical contexts in which the status was conceived and in which it developed – from the late republican period to the early medieval world. Four chapters in the second book part offer then new research on key Latin literary texts to provide fresh insights into the role of Junian Latinity in Roman imperial society. The book makes a strong case for the centrality of Junian Latinity in the Roman Empire and the importance of its modern study.

    Description: Aux États-Unis, la notion de race est utilisée de manière routinière par les médecins en tant que variable biologique, culturelle ou sociale, selon les situations de soins. Croisant les notions de citoyenneté, de responsabilité et de droits civiques, ainsi que les questionnements autour de la politisation de la science, cet ouvrage retrace l’histoire de la médicalisation du corps noir par la profession psychiatrique aux États-Unis, du xxe siècle jusqu’à l’époque contemporaine. Conjuguant l’histoire et la sociologie, il est ainsi question de retracer les différents régimes par lesquels la notion de race a été jugée pertinente par les psychiatres pour naturaliser les différences corporelles des années 1920 jusqu’à l’époque contemporaine. En s’appuyant sur un corpus d’archives personnelles de médecins, d’institutions de soins et de centres de recherche en psychiatrie, ainsi que sur une enquête qualitative réalisée auprès de psychiatres en Californie, ce livre démontre que la catégorie de race irrigue encore et toujours les pratiques et les discours institutionnels, aussi bien dans les représentations que les médecins véhiculent des corps soignés, que dans les stratégies de naturalisation du social employées pour prendre en charge leurs patients.

    La petite musique des territoires : Arts, espaces et sociétés (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Faire de la musique un objet géographique ne signifie pas seulement reconnaître en elle un nouvel outil d'analyse des espaces ou un moyen d'agir sur ces derniers. En nous appuyant sur les démarches antérieures menées dans le champ des sciences sociales, nous postulons l'irréductibilité de l'objet musical à une seule dimension disciplinaire. Nous lui attribuons une interdisciplinarité située, territorialisée, mise en tension par les logiques contradictoires entre ancrage local et mondialisation, temps courts et temps longs, perspectives normatives et/ou descriptives, dynamiques créatives... Cadrées par des approches culturelles différentes, les propositions rassemblées dans cet ouvrage rendent compte d'une dynamique collective à l'œuvre. Un réseau scientifique en construction met aujourd'hui en relation la géographie de la musique avec l'urbanisme, la sociologie, les sciences politiques, l'anthropologie, la philosophie ou encore les sciences de la communication. Ensemble, ces disciplines nous invitent à considérer la musique dans les espaces, lieux et territoires qu'elle produit et consomme. Invitation au dialogue, cet ouvrage tente également de relier les productions francophones et anglophones. Il espère ainsi participer à une vision collective et ouverte des recherches sur le phénomène musical.

    Augustine and the Art of Ruling in the Carolingian Imperial Period (Open Access) (2021)
    Taylor & Francis | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This volume is an investigation of how Augustine was received in the Carolingian period, and the elements of his thought which had an impact on Carolingian ideas of ‘state’, rulership and ethics. It focuses on Alcuin of York and Hincmar of Rheims, authors and political advisers to Charlemagne and to Charles the Bald, respectively. It examines how they used Augustinian political thought and ethics, as manifested in the De civitate Dei, to give more weight to their advice. A comparative approach sheds light on the differences between Charlemagne’s reign and that of his grandson. It scrutinizes Alcuin’s and Hincmar’s discussions of empire, rulership and the moral conduct of political agents during which both drew on the De civitate Dei, although each came away with a different understanding. By means of a philological–historical approach, the book offers a deeper reading and treats the Latin texts as political discourses defined by content and language.

    Vignobles et vins en Aquitaine : Images et identités d’hier et d’aujourd’hui (2021)
    Maison des Sciences de l’Homme d’Aquitaine | Maison des Sciences de l'homme d'Aquitaine
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: En Aquitaine, première région vitivinicole française, la vigne est présente sur la majeure partie des territoires, et la filière, avec ses exploitations en Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée, ses caves coopératives et ses maisons de négoce, constitue une forte composante de l'économie régionale. Les grands crus sont les principaux référents pour l'image des vins aquitains et tirent vers le haut l'ensemble du vignoble, et cependant les vins de Bordeaux occultent la diversité et la richesse des vins aquitains, ce qui nuit à une image de l'Aquitaine comme pays du vin. Vignobles et vins en Aquitaine s'attache à étudier ce paradoxe. La première partie, dans une synthèse de nombreux écrits de recherche, explique comment les histoires agraire, économique et humaine de la région ont fait du vin une spécificité aquitaine, inscrite dans les paysages et les sociétés, et évalue le rôle de la « place de Bordeaux ». La seconde partie propose des éclairages plus circonstanciés, regroupés en deux thèmes : les facteurs et marqueurs de la construction des territoires viticoles constituent un premier axe d'étude, suivi par les représentations et la défense de l'image qui forment un second champ. Les territoires viticoles aquitains sont des constructions sociales complexes, génératrices d'une identité forte et porteuse. Cet ouvrage a été réalisé par la collaboration d'historiens, géographes, économistes ou œnologues au sein de la MSHA et dans le cadre de programmes pluridisciplinaires du CERVIN (composante de l'UMR ADES). Il soulève des problématiques telles que l'articulation entre société et terroir, les effets déformants du système AOC ou les logiques territoriales « de clocher » qui ont perturbé la création d'une identité régionale. Les recherches de ces différents auteurs nous permettent de comprendre comment les viticulteurs aquitains ont été en mesure de maintenir une production que le monde entier envie encore malgré la crise.

    Acute and Chronic Changes in Neural Excitability During Physical Activity in Non-Pathological States (2021)
    MDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Neural control of human motor output and how it is modified by alterations in physical activity levels is complex and multidimensional. The use of various experimental designs has vastly increased our knowledge of how the nervous system integrates descending, segmental, and ascending information to produce motor outputs, yet there is still much to learn. A more complete picture of the neurophysiology underlying the control of human motor outputs may prove useful in guiding rehabilitation programs aimed at reducing motor impairments following disease or injury. The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect original articles that explore neural excitability in various states. Studies examining neural excitability on a moment-to-moment basis (acute) or following prolonged periods of exercise or skill training and disuse (chronic) are encouraged. Original research studies using various experimental measures (e.g., transcranial magnetic stimulation, transmastoid electrical stimulation, single motor unit recordings, electroencephalography, and measures of spinal reflexes) in various states (e.g., fatigued, non-fatigued, and resting) during different types of motor outputs (tonic or dynamic) are encouraged. Experimental studies and literature reviews are welcome.

    Description: L’urbanisation à l’échelle planétaire et la conscience croissante des problèmes écologiques font de l’« urbain » un objet privilégié pour l’action publique et la recherche. C’est en effet grâce à la perspective urbaine que nous parvenons aujourd’hui à une meilleure compréhension des sociétés contemporaines et des milieux de vie. En articulant les dimensions sociales, écologiques, politiques et matérielles, les recherches actuelles apportent de nouvelles connaissances sur les théories et définitions de l’urbain, les populations urbaines et la production de leur cadre de vie. Les enjeux sont de taille. Ils touchent à la qualité de vie des citadins et à la forme de nos sociétés : diversification des populations, accroissement des inégalités, recompositions des flux, des échelles et des pouvoirs urbains, changements de l’environnement planétaire, etc. Le présent ouvrage, qui repose sur un important travail collectif sur les villes des Nords et des Suds, propose un panorama engagé de ces enjeux présents et, surtout, à venir pour la recherche urbaine.

    Tajkistan: A Political and Social History (2021)
    ANU Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: This book is a historical study of the Tajiks in Central Asia from the ancient times to the post-Soviet period. For millennia, these descendants of the original Aryan settlers were part of many different empires set up by Greek, Arab, Turkic and Russian invaders, as well as their own, most notably during the Middle Ages. The emergence of the modern state of Tajikistan began after 1917 under Soviet rule, and culminated in the promulgation of independence from the moribund USSR in 1991. In the subsequent civil war that raged between 1992 and 1997, Tajikistan came close to becoming a failed state. The legacy of that internal conflict remains critical to understanding politics in Tajikistan a generation later. Exploring the patterns of ethnic identity and the exigencies of state formation, the book argues that despite a strong sense of belonging underpinned by shared history, mythology and cultural traits, the Tajiks have not succeeded in forming a consolidated nation. The politics of the Russian colonial administration, the national-territorial delimitation under Stalin, and the Soviet strategy of socio-economic modernisation contributed to the preservation and reification of sub-ethnic cleavages and regional identities. The book demonstrates the impact of region-based elite clans on Tajikistan’s political trajectory in the twilight years of the Soviet era, and identifies objective and subjective factors that led to the civil war. It concludes with a survey of the process of national reconciliation after 1997, and the formal and informal political actors, including Islamist groups, who compete for influence in Tajik society. “Tajikistan: A Political and Social History is the best source of information on this important country in the English language. Drs Nourzhanov and Bleuer present a comprehensive yet detailed account of the past and prospects of this emerging nation, and have filled one of the major gaps in Central Asian scholarship. This book must be read by those who wish to grasp the vagaries of Central Asia’s evolving political and cultural landscapes.” Reuel Hanks, Professor of Geography, Oklahoma State University, and Editor of the Journal of Central Asian Studies. “If Tajikistan is known outside its region, it is often for the civil war that gravely damaged it. This volume authoritatively provides the longer perspective to the unsettling events of the 1990s and skilfully explains them in terms of history, social structure, and sub-state identities. In addition to highlighting a wealth of local factors, it is insightful on the ways in which antagonists can be transformed into broader ethnic and regional blocs. Kirill Nourzhanov and Christian Bleuer are erudite guides to an understudied part of Central Asia, while astutely instructing us about larger patterns of state-society relations and their impact on the logic of conflict.” James Piscatori, Professor of International Relations, Durham University.

    Description: Published
    Description: El presente trabajo analiza el rol de la intelectualidad liberal-conservadora argentina ante la última dictadura, el "Proceso de Reorganización Nacional" (1976-1983). El libro estudia las posiciones e intervenciones de un conjunto de catorce actores: Álvaro Alsogaray, Alberto Benegas Lynch, Germán Bidart Campos, Horacio García Belsunce, Jorge Luis García Venturini, Mariano Grondona, Juan Segundo Linares Quintana, Mario Justo López, José Alfredo Martínez de Hoz, Víctor Massuh, Jaime Perriaux, Ambrosio Romero Carranza, Carlos Sánchez Sañudo y Ricardo Zinn. La elección de estos nombres implica considerar un abanico amplio de trayectorias que componen figuras intelectuales de diversidad, unidas sin embargo por muchos más vínculos que la adscripción política. La obra se interna en la historia político-intelectual de un espacio ideológico aún poco explorado desde los estudios sobre la intelectualidad, las derechas y la propia dictadura, reponiendo los diversos espacios ocupados por estos hombres, sus proyectos, coincidencias, polémicas y desencantos en un momento clave de la historia argentina.

    Corporate Policing, Yellow Unionism, and Strikebreaking, 1890-1930 (2021)
    Taylor & Francis | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book provides a comparative and transnational examination of the complex and multifaceted experiences of anti-labour mobilisation, from the bitter social conflicts of the pre-war period, through the epochal tremors of war and revolution, and the violent spasms of the 1920s and 1930s. It retraces the formation of an extensive market for corporate policing, privately contracted security and yellow unionism, as well as processes of professionalisation in strikebreaking activities, labour espionage and surveillance. It reconstructs the diverse spectrum of right-wing patriotic leagues and vigilante corps which, in support or in competition with law enforcement agencies, sought to counter the dual dangers of industrial militancy and revolutionary situations. Although considerable research has been done on the rise of socialist parties and trade unions the repressive policies of their opponents have been generally left unexamined. This book fills this gap by reconstructing the methods and strategies used by state authorities and employers to counter outbreaks of labour militancy on a global scale. It adopts a long-term chronology that sheds light on the shocks and strains that marked industrial societies during their turbulent transition into mass politics from the bitter social conflicts of the pre-war period, through the epochal tremors of war and revolution, and the violent spasms of the 1920s and 1930s. Offering a new angle of vision to examine the violent transition to mass politics in industrial societies, this is of great interest to scholars of policing, unionism and striking in the modern era.

    Our Unswerving Loyalty (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: The story of the Communist Party of Australia has been told in various ways. Until now, however, archival collections that have borne on this story have been relatively inaccessible to the ordinary, interested reader. This book begins to redress that deficiency by bringing together 85 key documents from the Russian State Archives of Social and Political History (RGASPI), selected from a collection of thousands of documents concerning the relations between the Communist International and the Communist Party of Australia. The selection focuses on the relationship between the CPA and the Comintern because the activities of the CPA are essentially incomprehensible without understanding the international communist context within which the CPA operated. That context was dominated by the newly-created Soviet state and its decision to authorize and utilize a network of communist parties throughout the world. The documents in this work suggest three major propositions about the relationship between the CPA and the Comintern. First, that the Comintern was crucial in the formation of the CPA, via its emissaries, instructions and authority. Second, that the Comintern played a major role in directing the policies of the CPA in domestic matters (not to mention in international matters, where the Comintern’s decisions were supreme). And third, that the leadership of the CPA was, from 1929 onwards, shaped, trained and authorized by the Comintern. With access to the documents, readers now have a chance not just to hear the voices of the times, but to make their own judgements about the relationship between the CPA and Moscow. The book also includes two extended introductory essays that outline the development of the Comintern and its relations with the CPA, as well as supporting materials that provide information on individuals, organizations and tactics mentioned within the documents themselves.

    Description: Le trachome, la maladie des « cils qui poussent à l’intérieur », est la deuxième cause de cécité dans le monde. Bien qu’elle soit susceptible d’être prévenue et traitée, elle frappe encore près de 80 millions de personnes, en particulier dans le sud du Sahara. Quelles sont les causes de cette maladie ? Comment y faire face ? Comment évaluer le succès des actions préventives ou curatives déjà entreprises ? Où en est la lutte contre cette infection et quelles sont les recommandations nécessaires à son éradication ? Cette expertise collégiale menée par l’IRD, réalisée par une quinzaine de chercheurs à la demande du ministère de la Santé du Mali et de l’Institut d’ophtalmologie tropicale d’Afrique (Mali), s’attache à décrire l’état actuel de la lutte contre cette conjonctivite cécitante d’origine infectieuse. En dressant le bilan des stratégies déjà à l’œuvre, notamment celle du programme CHANCE de l’OMS, cette expertise cherche à définir les conditions et les perspectives de cette maladie.

    Description: In 1847, Russian military engineer and diplomat Egor Petrovich Kovalevsky embarked on a journey through what is today Egypt, Sudan, Eritrea, and Ethiopia, recording his impressions of a region in flux. Invited by Egyptian ruler Mohammed Ali to look for gold and construct mines in the area between the Blue and White Nile, Kovalevsky captured the social milieu of both elites and ordinary people as well as compiled a rich record of the Upper Nile’s climate and natural resources. A Journey to Inner Africa, masterfully translated into English for the first time by Anna Aslanyan, is both a tale of encounter between Russia and northern Africa and an important document in the history and development of the Russian imperial project.

    Les ingénieurs des Mines : cultures, pouvoirs, pratiques : Colloque des 7 et 8 octobre 2010 (2021)
    Institut de la gestion publique et du développement économique
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Les grands corps de l’État n’ont pas toujours bonne presse, mais, en même temps, ils fascinent. Créé au XVIIIe siècle, le corps des Mines n’a cessé de contribuer à la construction économique du pays. Passés par l’École polytechnique et l’École des mines, les ingénieurs du corps ont surveillé et, souvent, directement encadré les secteurs de l’industrie et de l’énergie. Ils ont également joué un rôle éminent dans le domaine scientifique, leurs contributions allant des sciences « dures » (mathématiques et physique, avec Henri Poincaré, chimie avec Henry Le Chatelier) à l’économie, avec Maurice Allais, le seul Français ayant reçu le prix Nobel d’économie, et aussi la sociologie, avec Frédéric Le Play, considéré comme l’un des précurseurs de cette discipline. Industriel dans son essence, industrialiste dans son esprit, ce corps de fonctionnaires a souvent adopté des approches libérales, mais, a contrario, il a souvent impulsé un patriotisme économique de bon aloi dans le cadre de « grands programmes » d’État. Il restait à la richesse de cette expérience, à la fois technique, scientifique et administrative, à se constituer en histoire, à se « conscientiser ». Telle était l’ambition du colloque dont les actes sont présentés dans ce volume. Organisé dans le cadre de la célébration du deux centième anniversaire du décret du 18 novembre 1810 qui a organisé le « Corps impérial des Ingénieurs des Mines », ce colloque historique s’est attaché à mettre en lumière le rôle joué au service de la France par ces hauts fonctionnaires à formation scientifique et technique.

    L’épistémologie sociale : Une théorie sociale de la connaissance (2021)
    Éditions de l’École des hautes études en sciences sociales
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: L'épistémologie sociale est une analyse de la dimension sociale de la connaissance. Son point de départ est le constat que bien des phénomènes ne nous sont connus que par l'intermédiaire des autres et donc que la connaissance a non seulement des sources directes, celles auxquelles le sujet a lui-même accès, mais aussi des sources indirectes reposant sur la confiance ou sur l'autorité accordée à autrui. Elle s'intéresse donc aux conditions de la transmission de l'information venant d'autrui, et aux relations de confiance et d'autorité épistémiques, notamment dans le domaine des sciences. Mais ses préoccupations sont plus larges et concernent tout ce qui a trait à la dimension sociale de la connaissance: la construction, au cours d'interactions, de justifications recevables ou acceptables; les modes ordinaires de pensée et de raisonnement; ou encore les relations de coopération et de collaboration dans une « communauté épistémique ». De plus elle reprend des questions qui étaient au cœur de la théorie durkeimienne de la connaissance, celle par exemple des croyances collectives, ou l'idée d'un sujet collectif du savoir. Par là elle se rapproche des social studies of science, tout en s'en distinguant par l'adoption d'un point de vue normatif et par le refus du relativisme. Ce volume présente un ensemble de recherches représentatives de ces différentes préoccupations. Elles ont en commun de reconnaître la spécificité de l'idée de normes de la connaissance, et, s'agissant de concevoir la dimension sociale de celle-ci, de se garder des formes radicales de holisme, pour lesquelles les groupes sociaux sont des entités sui generis.

    Description: The 43rd UID conference, held in Genova, takes up the theme of ‘Dialogues’ as practice and debate on many fundamental topics in our social life, especially in these complex and not yet resolved times. The city of Genova offers the opportunity to ponder on the value of comparison and on the possibilities for the community, naturally focused on the aspects that concern us, as professors, researchers, disseminators of knowledge, or on all the possibile meanings of the discipline of representation and its dialogue with ‘others’, which we have broadly catalogued in three macro areas: History, Semiotics, Science / Technology. Therefore, “dialogue” as a profitable exchange based on a common language, without which it is impossible to comprehend and understand one another; and the graphic sign that connotes the conference is the precise transcription of this concept: the title ‘translated’ into signs, derived from the visual alphabet designed for the visual identity of the UID since 2017. There are many topics which refer to three macro sessions: - Witnessing (signs and history) - Communicating (signs and semiotics) - Experimenting (signs and sciences) Thanks to the different points of view, an exceptional resource of our disciplinary area, we want to try to outline the prevailing theoretical-operational synergies, the collaborative lines of an instrumental nature, the recent updates of the repertoires of images that attest and nourish the relations among representation, history, semiotics, sciences.

    Description: Dans son acception classique, dite républicaine, l'espace public traverse une crise dont beaucoup pensent qu'il ne s'en remettra pas. Menacé aussi dans ses manifestations matérielles par la violence, l'Insécurité et les divers communautarismes ou replis sur soi, l'espace public ne semble plus pouvoir répondre aux attentes dont il avait fait l'objet par l'intermédiaire de l'aménagement. Cet ouvrage prend le contre-pied de ces Interprétations, en montrant que, loin d'avoir perdu de sa pertinence, la préoccupation pour l'espace public demeure essentielle pour affronter les défis posés par la société contemporaine, dans la mesure où la réflexion est constamment ramenée à la spatialité qui en fonde l'Intérêt et la portée. Une approche renouvelée de l'espace public est Ici proposée, qui se déploie en associant étroitement trois composantes : la matérialité, la politique, l'action, car nos analyses ne peuvent plus faire l'économie de les considérer séparément. Sa mise à l'épreuve de grands enjeux contemporains montre que l'on peut parler tout autant de régressions que d'émergences.

    Pas de fumet sans feu : cuisine et vie quotidienne auprès des moines de Tournus (IXe-XVIe siècle) (2021)
    ARTEHIS Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: C’est sur un espace utilisé depuis la fin du ixe siècle, occupé aux environs de l’an mil par une étonnante construction de bois à sol de béton et à vocation funéraire, que s’implante au xiie siècle la nouvelle cuisine de l’abbaye Saint-Philibert de Tournus. Lié au réfectoire voisin, le bâtiment empiète à l’époque sur des niveaux de circulation extérieure. Sa conception architecturale est ambitieuse, avec un plan centré sur un octogone entouré de vastes cheminées à contrecœur semi-circulaire qui évoque des modèles de l’ouest de la France - disparus pour la plupart, à l’exception ou presque de la cuisine de Fontevraud en Anjou. Toutefois, au contraire de ces exemples connus uniquement pour leur architecture, c’est la conservation en place des dépôts d’utilisation intérieurs, compressés à force d’accumulation et de piétinements, qui fait la richesse du spécimen tournusien, illustrant de façon saisissante le quotidien de cette cuisine jusqu’au milieu du xvie siècle. Pendant quatre siècles, c’est autour de grandes langues de cendres témoignant d’une cuisson dans la braise, étalées depuis les quatre foyers jusqu’au milieu de la pièce, que se concentre l’essentiel de l’activité. Les postes de préparation sont trahis par autant de tas de déchets spécialisés : coquilles d’œufs, fragments d’os, écailles de poisson… Une conduite d’eau et un drain de pierres traversent la pièce, portiques ou paravents de bois sont déplacés sans cesse. La permanence de déchets de consommation carnée sur le même site depuis la fin du ixe siècle, l’abondance des restes de poisson dans la cuisine, permettent de retracer l’évolution de l’approvisionnement et de l’alimentation des moines et de leurs familiers laïcs. Quant aux nombreux fragments de poteries, également présents depuis les premiers niveaux, ils offrent sur huit siècles, avec d’autres sites tournusiens, un référentiel de productions en usage dans la région. À cela s’ajoutent quelques restes d’ustensiles en métal, verre ou pierre, tels cette probable tête de robinet des xiie/xiiie siècles ou ce mortier décoré du xive, retrouvé cassé au fond d’une cheminée : ils éclairent, plus ponctuellement, d’autres aspects de la préparation culinaire ou du service de la table. De tout point de vue, en plein contexte monastique, le matériel recueilli trahit les usages d’une population aristocratique. Tels sont les apports d’une fouille minutieuse à l’emplacement de cet édifice crucial de l’abbaye médiévale, un peu oublié à Tournus depuis sa destruction au xviie siècle, mais ressuscité par cet ouvrage finement documenté.

    Des guerres civiles du xvie siècle à nos jours (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Cet ouvrage interroge les formes que revêtent les mémoires, le rapport du politique au passé, le rapport de la société avec les experts et les chercheurs. Évoquer la question de la reconstruction d’une société après un épisode traumatique permet de retracer les filiations qui se font ou se défont au prisme de la mémoire et de l’histoire d’un pays. Le sujet principal est ici la guerre de Vendée, mais il aborde aussi d’autres conflits intraétatiques : Saint-Domingue devenue Haïti, l’Algérie, la Nouvelle-Calédonie du xvie siècle à nos jours. Ces contributions comparatives passent par l’archéologie, l’ethnologie, la littérature et l’histoire. Ce volume permet une meilleure compréhension de l’histoire et de la mémoire des guerres civiles telles qu’elles ont été pensées, écrites, reconstruites et transmises par les acteurs, les témoins, les contemporains, les historiens. Les douze textes, ponctués par les conclusions de Jean-Clément Martin, permettent de mieux entrer dans la fabrique des mémoires des guerres civiles d’hier et d’aujourd’hui.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Les vecteurs des agents du paludisme ou de la leishmaniose, rencontrés lors de voyages dans les régions à climat chaud, s'ajoutant à la transmission par le moustique tigre (Aedes albopictus) des virus chikungunya et de la dengue dans le sud de la France, ont montré l'intérêt d'une réflexion approfondie sur la protection personnelle antivectorielle. En cas d'épidémie, nos concitoyens se protègent individuellement en se procurant sur le marché tout un arsenal de moyens où le meilleur côtoie le pire. Pour donner à chacun des informations sur l'efficacité et l'innocuité de ces moyens de protection, la Société de médecine des voyages et la Société française de parasitologie ont initié cette étude qui a pris la forme de « Recommandations de bonne pratique », en suivant le schéma élaboré par la Haute Autorité de santé. Cet ouvrage rassemble ainsi toutes les données pertinentes, validées et mises en forme pour être utilisées non seulement par les personnels de santé (médecins, pharmaciens, infirmiers), mais aussi par les agents touristiques ainsi que par les particuliers pour se protéger des nuisances et des maladies à vecteurs qui constituent de préoccupants problèmes de santé publique.

    La sorcellerie et la ville (2023)
    Presses universitaires de Strasbourg
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Dans sa Démonolâtrie (1595), le procureur général de Lorraine, Nicolas Remy, estime que « Les sorciers appartiennent la plupart du temps au monde des bourgs et des campagnes. ». Cependant, les vauderies survenues à Lyon et Arras au XVe siècle comme les cas de possession du XVIIe siècle sont autant de témoignages de la présence de la sorcellerie dans les villes européennes. Les études de cas et les essais comparatifs réunis dans ce volume montrent qu'en dépit de la diversité des sociétés urbaines, la sorcellerie apparaît comme un révélateur des enjeux de pouvoir qui traversent les villes modernes.Dans sa postface, Carlo Ginzburg insiste sur la portée d'une approche comparatiste, toujours attentive aux écarts à la norme, et souligne l'importance d’aborder les procès de sorcellerie comme une manifestation particulière des tensions sociales et culturelles.

    L'Or Blanc : Petits et grands planteurs face au « boom » de l’hévéaculture (Viêt Nam-Cambodge) (2021)
    Institut de recherche sur l’Asie du Sud-Est contemporaine
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Les hauts-plateaux méridionaux du Viêt Nam et du Cambodge connaissent depuis le milieu des années 2000 une forte augmentation des superficies plantées en hévéa. Les booms de l’hévéaculture diffèrent significativement de part et d’autre de la frontière, mais ils sont également étroitement liés dans le contexte d’une intégration régionale des filières et des territoires qui se renforce. Cette transformation est impulsée par le jeu des marchés globalisés et de puissants acteurs étrangers tels que la Chine et la Malaisie, mais les gouvernements nationaux jouent également un rôle important en matière d’accès et d’usage des terres agricoles. L’or blanc et les nouveaux eldorados ne sont pas qu’un enjeu économique ; sont également en jeu les influences et les rapports de force entre les pays de la sous-région du Grand Mékong, à l’image des importantes transactions foncières transnationales. Pour mieux comprendre la transition agraire actuelle impulsée par le boom de l’hévéa, les auteurs de cet ouvrage ont tenu à revenir sur l’histoire, l’époque de la colonisation européenne et les expériences socialistes. L’ouvrage analyse également la capacité des populations locales à résister aux pressions des nouveaux arrivants et la compétition que représentent les plantations d’hévéa de grande taille mécanisées.

    Rethinking Interdisciplinarity across the Social Sciences and Neurosciences (2021)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This book offers a provocative account of interdisciplinary research across the neurosciences, social sciences and humanities. Setting itself against standard accounts of interdisciplinary 'integration,' and rooting itself in the authors' own experiences, the book establishes a radical agenda for collaboration across these disciplines. Rethinking Interdisciplinarity does not merely advocate interdisciplinary research, but attends to the hitherto tacit pragmatics, affects, power dynamics, and spatial logics in which that research is enfolded. Understanding the complex relationships between brains, minds, and environments requires a delicate, playful and genuinely experimental interdisciplinarity, and this book shows us how it can be done.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Les deux parties de cet ouvrage présentent et analysent les professions de foi des députés de Loire-Atlantique sous la IIIe République. Ces deux parties sont à bien des égards originales : • La première, par son exploration scientifique d’un matériau généralement négligé, au motif qu’il n’aurait d’autre intérêt que de restituer la rhétorique des candidats à la députation ; • La seconde, par la reproduction des textes analysés — les proclamations électorales des députés du pays « nantais » — donnant ainsi au lecteur l’ac­cès direct aux matériaux utilisés. L’ensemble de la contribution devrait retenir l’intérêt tant des chercheurs que des lecteurs sensibilisés à une histoire politique tout à la fois concrète et néan­moins contextualisée. Par ailleurs, cet ouvrage complète, prolonge Monarchie et Modernité publié chez le même éditeur.

    The Mauritian Novel (2023)
    Liverpool University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: An Open Access edition of this work is available on Modern Languages Open (https://www.modernlanguagesopen.org/). On 12 March 2018, Mauritius celebrated fifty years as an independent nation amidst much fanfare. Yet behind the nation's official image of multicultural 'unity in diversity' lurk deep socio-economic inequalities and inter-ethnic tensions that are insistently critiqued in its literature. Against this backdrop, this book analyses how the idea of belonging - a sense of attachment to, and identification with, a place or people - is problematised in a range of contemporary francophone Mauritian novels. The island-nation's complex history and the multi-ethnic composition of its modern-day population mean that belonging is a central but fraught issue in both reality and fiction. Waters explores how diverse forms of affirmative, affective belonging intersect with, and are frequently inhibited by, exclusionary 'politics of belonging' at communal, national or international levels. Using an eclectic theoretical approach to the central concept of belonging, Waters offers in-depth textual analyses of novels by leading Mauritian writers Nathacha Appanah, Ananda Devi, Shenaz Patel, Bertrand de Robillard, Amal Sewtohul and Carl de Souza. Despite their thematic and formal diversity, these novels are shown to be characterised by a common rejection of dominant discourses of ethnic, diasporic affiliation and by a common commitment to the ongoing, future-orientated project of Mauritian nationhood. As such, this book offers an original insight into the dynamics of belonging and exclusion in diverse, multi-ethnic societies.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: El territorio tiene cada día mayor importancia, tanto en su componente físico como en su dimensión sociocultural. La gestión de los recursos naturales, el problema del acceso a la tierra, la gobernabilidad, las cadenas productivas, las políticas de infraestructura, la cosmovisión campesina, la construcción de identidades y otros son temas relacionados con el espacio y el territorio. El espacio y el territorio han sido investigados desde diversas disciplinas, como la geografía, la economía y la sociología. Sin embargo, todavfa carecemos de propuestas metodológicas intégrales. Por eso, revisando los caminos transitados por la geografía moderna y centrando su preocupación en los conceptos de espacio y territorio, este libro propone una lectura multidimensional y multidisciplinaria del tema, ofreciendo un panorama de los diferentes enfoques, métodos e instrumentas para estudios empiricos, como los métodos estadísticos, cartográficos y, como dice Erwin Galoppo, "ese producto génial de la geografía francesa contemporanea: los coremas".

    Textiles in Ancient Mediterranean Iconography (2021)
    Oxbow Books | Oxbow Books
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This volume provides an ambitious synopsis of the complex, colourful world of textiles in ancient Mediterranean iconography. A wealth of information on ancient textiles is available from depictions such as sculpture, vase painting, figurines, reliefs and mosaics. Commonly represented in clothing, textiles are also present in furnishings and through the processes of textile production. The challenge for anyone analysing ancient iconography is determining how we interpret what we see. As preserved textiles rarely survive in comparable forms, we must consider the extent to which representations of textiles reflect reality, and critically evaluate the sources. Images are not simple replicas or photographs of reality. Instead, iconography draws on select elements from the surrounding world that were recognisable to the ancient audience, and reveal the perceptions, ideologies, and ideas of the society in which they were produced. Through examining the durable evidence, this anthology reveals the ephemeral world of textiles and their integral role in the daily life, cult and economy of the ancient Mediterranean.

    Description: The 43rd UID conference, held in Genova, takes up the theme of ‘Dialogues’ as practice and debate on many fundamental topics in our social life, especially in these complex and not yet resolved times. The city of Genova offers the opportunity to ponder on the value of comparison and on the possibilities for the community, naturally focused on the aspects that concern us, as professors, researchers, disseminators of knowledge, or on all the possibile meanings of the discipline of representation and its dialogue with ‘others’, which we have broadly catalogued in three macro areas: History, Semiotics, Science / Technology. Therefore, “dialogue” as a profitable exchange based on a common language, without which it is impossible to comprehend and understand one another; and the graphic sign that connotes the conference is the precise transcription of this concept: the title ‘translated’ into signs, derived from the visual alphabet designed for the visual identity of the UID since 2017. There are many topics which refer to three macro sessions: - Witnessing (signs and history) - Communicating (signs and semiotics) - Experimenting (signs and sciences) Thanks to the different points of view, an exceptional resource of our disciplinary area, we want to try to outline the prevailing theoretical-operational synergies, the collaborative lines of an instrumental nature, the recent updates of the repertoires of images that attest and nourish the relations among representation, history, semiotics, sciences.

    Les juifs italiens de Tunisie pendant le fascisme (2023)
    Presses universitaires de Rennes
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Terre de mélanges culturels et de politiques coloniales, la Tunisie a attiré de l’Europe des courants d’immigrations aussi bien que des visées impérialistes. La trajectoire des Juifs italiens, dits Livournais, s’inscrit au carrefour de ces axes. Une communauté enracinée en Tunisie depuis le xviie siècle, mais toujours assimilée au monde européen. Une population cosmopolite, mais jalousement attachée à Livourne et à l’Italie. Une double minorité, à l’égard tant de la nombreuse population juive locale que des cent mille émigrés italiens vivant en Tunisie au début du xxe siècle, mais toujours caractérisée par une forte identité collective. Pendant l’entre-deux-guerres, la place sociale de cette communauté fut remise en cause par une série de phénomènes convergents : l’essor du nationalisme tunisien, les tensions diplomatiques italo-françaises, et surtout par la montée au pouvoir du régime fasciste, résolu à encadrer les communautés d’émigration dans sa politique impériale. Sur la base de fonds d’archives et de témoignages inédits, ce travail reconstruit le parcours des Juifs italiens de Tunisie face aux stratégies de fascisation de Rome, en interrogeant les croisements identitaires dans les contextes d’émigration, la question de l’adhésion de masse au totalitarisme et le poids des médiateurs au sein des sociétés coloniales.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Très souvent méconnue ou mésestimée dans ses effets les plus graves, la transphobie regroupe de nombreuses discriminations dont sont victimes les transidentités, qu'elles se définissent comme transgenres, transsexuelles ou en tant qu'identités alternatives. Les données recueillies lors d'un travail d'enquêtes et d'entretiens laissent entrevoir que l'acte transphobe peut aussi bien être le fait de la personne lambda que des institutions censées protéger les personnes. Quels sont les mécanismes à l'œuvre ? Quelle est la part du social, du politique voire du culturel dans ce qui concoure à la disqualification de l'autre et de la différence ? Cet ouvrage propose un état des lieux de la question en France et des pistes de réflexion à la lumière des Sciences Humaines et Sociales, tout en relayant et en analysant les témoignages sans ambiguïtés du quotidien des personnes concernées. Une sociologie de la transphobie est un travail de recherche qui pose des questions et propose des pistes de réflexions comme autant de réponses possibles aux processus de discriminations.

    Description: Diplomatic gifts, war prizes, or library treasures of royal and princely libraries—handwritten Qurʾans have also been endowed to mosques, tombs, and other religious complexes to perpetuate and transmit their baraka (divine blessing). Artistic, historic, and religious contexts and materiality of Qurʾans are investigated, from use of costly materials such as gold and parchment to development of special scripts, intricate illuminated designs, and meticulously tooled bindings. This edited collection resulted from a 2016 symposium at the Smithsonian’s Arthur M. Sacker Gallery in conjunction with the exhibition The Art of the Qurʾan: Treasures from the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts.

Los textos fueron puestos a consideración de distintos referentes académicos especializados y buscan constituir una conversación provocadora y provechosa. Por otra parte, pretenden consolidar el imaginario de un territorio común en el tiempo y el espacio, a través de la cordillera como eje integrador y no como límite político nacional.

    Chapter The Luwian Goddess Darawa (2023)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: The PN Kammalia-Tarawa in an Old Assyrian tablet seems to be the earliest reference of the deity Darawa. The Luwian background this deity is also apparent, e.g., from the plural form DDa-ra-ú-wa-an-zi or from those texts mentioned in CTH 457 and the etymological interpretation of the divine name to the Luwian verb tarāwi(ya)-. Since the early Middle Hittite period Darawa also found her way into the Hattian milieu and as a goddess connected with the family life, she is mentioned several times in festivals for a queen (CTH 646), but also in the Hittite Prayer to the Sun-goddess of the Netherworld (CTH 371) which is – in my opinion – the only Hittite texts mentioning Darawa within the “pantheon of the state”. Texts from the Hurrian and Kizzuwatnaean milieu (e.g., CTH 351) also refer several times to Darawa, but this is clearly the result of a secondary and marginal dissemination of the goddess. In conclusion one might say that Darawa from her Luwian background also came into contact with various milieus of the “Hittite pantheon”, functioning as a goddess providing good (and evil) to humans in everyday life.

    Medieval Jewry in Northern France (2022)
    Johns Hopkins University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Originally published in 1974. Focusing on a set of Jewish communities, Robert Chazan tells how, by the eleventh century, French Jews had created for themselves a role as local merchants and moneylenders in adapting to the political, economic, and social limits imposed on them. French society, striving to become more powerful and civilized, was willing to extend aid and protection to the Jews in return for general stimulation of trade and urban life and for the immediate profit realized from taxation. While the authorities were relatively successful in protecting the Jews from others, there was no power to impose itself between the Jews and their protectors. The political and social well-being of the Jews was, therefore, dependent on the will of the governing authorities who taxed their holdings and regulated their activities. During the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the position of the Jews was constantly under attack by reform elements in the church concerned with Jewish moneylending and blasphemous materials in Jewish books; these reformers were eventually devoted to a serious missionizing effort within the Jewish community. The Jews' situation was further complicated by deep popular animosity, expressing itself in a damaging set of slanders and occasionally in physical violence. Despite the impressive achievements of the Jews in medieval northern France, by the thirteenth century their community was increasingly constricted; and in 1306, they were expelled from royal France by Philip IV. Overcoming the handicap of a lack of copious source material, Chazan analyzes the Jews' political status, their relations with key elements of Christian society, their demographic development, their economic outlets, their internal organization, and their attitudes toward the Christian environment. As it highlights aspects of French society from an unusual perspective, Medieval Jewry in Northern France should be of special interest to the historian of medieval France as well as to the student of Jewish history. This story is also significant for all who are fascinated by the capacity of human groups to respond and adapt creatively to a hostile and limiting environment.

    Making Muslim Women European (2021)
    Central European University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This social, cultural, and political history of Slavic Muslim women of the Yugoslav region in the first decades of the post-Ottoman era is the first to provide a comprehensive overview of the issues confronting these women. It is based on a study of voluntary associations (philanthropic, cultural, Islamic-traditionalist, and feminist) of the period. It is broadly held that Muslim women were silent and relegated to a purely private space until 1945, when the communist state “unveiled” and “liberated” them from the top down.  After systematic archival research in Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia, and Austria, Fabio Giomi challenges this view by showing:  How different sectors of the Yugoslav elite through association publications, imagined the role of Muslim women in post-Ottoman times, and how Muslim women took part in the construction or the contestation of these narratives.  How associa­tions employed different means in order to forge a generation of “New Muslim Women” able to cope with the post-Ottoman political and social circumstances.  And how Muslim women used the tools provided by the associations in order to pursue their own projects, aims and agendas.  The insights are relevant for today’s challenges facing Muslim women in Europe. The text is illustrated with exceptional photographs.

    Ginseng and Borderland (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Ginseng and Borderland explores the territorial boundaries and political relations between Qing China and Chosŏn Korea during the period from the early seventeenth to the late nineteenth centuries. By examining a unique body of materials written in Chinese, Manchu, and Korean, and building on recent studies in New Qing History, Seonmin Kim adds new perspectives to current understandings of the remarkable transformation of the Manchu Qing dynasty (1636–1912) from a tribal state to a universal empire. This book discusses early Manchu history and explores the Qing Empire’s policy of controlling Manchuria and Chosŏn Korea. Kim also contributes to the Korean history of the Chosŏn dynasty (1392–1910) by challenging conventional accounts that embrace a China-centered interpretation of the tributary relationship between the two polities, stressing instead the agency of Chosŏn Korea in the formation of the Qing Empire. This study demonstrates how Koreans interpreted and employed this relationship in order to preserve the boundary—and peace—with the suzerain power. By focusing on the historical significance of the China-Korea boundary, this book defines the nature of the Qing Empire through the dynamics of contacts and conflicts under both the cultural and material frameworks of its tributary relationship with Chosŏn Korea.

    Arendt, Eichmann and the Politics of the Past (2022)
    Helsinki University Press | Helsinki University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Arendt, Eichmann and the Politics of the Past offers a critical analysis of the original American debate over Hannah Arendt’s report of the trial of Adolf Eichmann. First published in 2008, Tuija Parvikko’s book discusses both the campaign against Arendt organised by American Zionist organisations and the controversy Arendt’s report caused within American Jewish intellectual circles. Parvikko’s analysis carefully draws from the historical background of the report, discussing Arendt’s early studies of Zionism and her critique of the Jewish state. The volume also gives an account of Eichmann’s capture in Argentina and the reception of the report among legal scholars and the world press.;This edition includes a new prologue in which Parvikko reflects on her own account in connection to recent academic discussions on the controversy. The author’s analysis also covers contributions that have attempted to follow Arendt’s notion of thinking without banisters. With them, Parvikko engages in debate about going beyond Arendt’s theoretical reflections on cohabitation, sharing the world, and discussing the new political evils of the present world without pregiven norms and patterns of thought.

    Description: The 43rd UID conference, held in Genova, takes up the theme of ‘Dialogues’ as practice and debate on many fundamental topics in our social life, especially in these complex and not yet resolved times. The city of Genova offers the opportunity to ponder on the value of comparison and on the possibilities for the community, naturally focused on the aspects that concern us, as professors, researchers, disseminators of knowledge, or on all the possibile meanings of the discipline of representation and its dialogue with ‘others’, which we have broadly catalogued in three macro areas: History, Semiotics, Science / Technology. Therefore, “dialogue” as a profitable exchange based on a common language, without which it is impossible to comprehend and understand one another; and the graphic sign that connotes the conference is the precise transcription of this concept: the title ‘translated’ into signs, derived from the visual alphabet designed for the visual identity of the UID since 2017. There are many topics which refer to three macro sessions: - Witnessing (signs and history) - Communicating (signs and semiotics) - Experimenting (signs and sciences) Thanks to the different points of view, an exceptional resource of our disciplinary area, we want to try to outline the prevailing theoretical-operational synergies, the collaborative lines of an instrumental nature, the recent updates of the repertoires of images that attest and nourish the relations among representation, history, semiotics, sciences.

    Description: Historiography and literature are verbal representations of actions and events that either have happened or could happen in the human lifeworld. As such, they possess an uncanny ‘family resemblance’ that has impelled theorists since Antiquity to define the limits of the two ‘sister arts.’ Historiographical texts, from one point of view, are liable to veer towards fiction.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This volume offers a new and up-to-date synthesis of Lincoln's long history as a major city and regional capital, from prehistory to 1945. The 'City by the Pool' was a major religious centre long before the Roman invasion and from bronze-age shamans to early Baptists people have always been attracted here for spiritual as well as mundane purposes. The authors argue for the presence of a major ritual causeway of the late Bronze and Iron Age and outline the extent to which ritual monuments also contributed to the character of Roman Lincoln. This book is based on more than a hundred publicly-funded excavations and building surveys undertaken between 1945 and 2000. It surveys all aspects of city life, from housing and fortifications to the water supply and rubbish disposal. It includes a CD Rom with a Geographic Information System (GIS) and a relational data-base known as LARA (the Lincoln Archaeological Research Assessment).

    Rituals in Slavic Pre-Christian Religion (2023)
    Arc Humanities Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-14
    Description: The authors comprehensively analyze all the available information regarding the ritual practices of Slavic pre-Christian religion that can be found in written medieval texts. After investigating every kind of reference to such practices, they offer a reconstruction of Slavic pre-Christian religion on the basis of these medieval testimonies. In doing so, they overcome the challenges presented by the fact that all of these sources are indirect, since the Slavs did not acquire literacy until they became Christians. Thus the writers of these texts mostly professed a monotheistic religion, being Christians and in some cases Muslims. The picture that they offer is biased and determined by their own faith. The present analysis innovatively combines testimonies from every Slavic area (Eastern, Western, and Southern), showing their mutual correspondences and emphasizing the relationship between the Slavic pre-Christian religion and its Indo-European roots.

    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: Organized through the initiative of the Ministry of Culture and Communication, the symposium “Lascaux and Preservation Issues in Subterranean Environments” was held in Paris on February 26 and 27, 2009 under the chairmanship of Jean Clottes. It brought together nearly three hundred participants from seventeen countries with the goal of confronting research and interventions conducted in Lascaux Cave since 2001 with the experiences gained in other countries in the domain of preservation in subterranean environments. Twelve presentations addressed questions related to disciplines such as hydrogeology, climatology and microbiology in relation to the protection and valorization of decorated caves. The talks were followed by debates allowing the experts and all other participants to freely express themselves. This volume, which constitutes the proceedings of this symposium, is composed of the studies presented during the sessions and full transcriptions of the debates. It provides both a synthesis of the conservation activities realized at Lascaux between 2001 and 2009 and the state of research and the conditions of the cave as of 2009.

    Austrian Studies Today (2023)
    University of New Orleans Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This volume celebrates the study of Austria in the twentieth century by historians, political scientists and social scientists produced in the previous twenty-four volumes of Contemporary Austrian Studies. One contributor from each of the previous volumes has been asked to update the state of scholarship in the field addressed in the respective volume. The title Austrian Studies Today, then, attempts to reflect the state of the art of historical and social science related studies of Austria over the past century, without claiming to be comprehensive. The volume thus covers many important themes of Austrian contemporary history and politics since the collapse of the Habsburg Monarchy in 1918―from World War I and its legacies, to the rise of authoritarian regimes in the 1930s and 1940s, to the reconstruction of republican Austria after World War II, the years of Grand Coalition governments and the Kreisky era, all the way to Austria joining the European Union in 1995 and its impact on Austria's international status and domestic politics.

    Ceramics and the Spanish Conquest (2021)
    Brill
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: The Spanish colonization dramatically interrupted the autonomous development of ancient Mesoamerican culture. Nevertheless, indigenous societies learnt to live with the conquest. It was not only a time of crisis, but also an extraordinarily creative time period in which material culture reflected indigenous peoples’ varied responses and adaptations to the changing circumstances. This work presents insights into the process of cultural continuity and change in the indigenous world by focusing on pottery technology in the Nahua (Aztec) region of Central Mexico. The late pre-colonial, early colonial and present-day characteristics of this industry are explored in order to come to a renewed understanding of its long-term development.

    Chapter Material Culture (2023)
    Taylor & Francis | The Hispanic-Anglosphere from the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Century | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: The Hispanic and Anglo worlds are often portrayed as the Cain and Abel of Western culture, antagonistic and alien to each other. This book challenges such view with a new critical conceptual framework – the ‘Hispanic-Anglosphere’ – to open a window into the often surprising interactions of individuals, transnational networks and global communities that, it argues, made of the British Isles (England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man) a crucial hub for the global Hispanic world, a launching-pad and a bridge between Spanish Europe, Africa, America and Asia in the late eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries. Perhaps not unlike today, that was a time marked by social uncertainty, pandemics, the dislocation of global polities and the rise of radicalisms. The volume offers insights on many themes including trade, the arts, education, language, politics, the press, religion, biodiversity, philanthropy, anti-slavery and imperialism. Established academics and rising stars from different continents and disciplines combined original, primary research with a wide range of secondary sources to produce a rich collection of ten case-studies, 25 biographies and seven samples of interpreted material culture, all presented in an accessible style appealing to scholars, students and the general reader alike.
