Abstract

Yves Grafmeyer est une figure marquante de la sociologie urbaine française. Présentateur et traducteur à la fin des années 1970, avec Isaac Joseph, de plusieurs textes majeurs de l’école de Chicago, auteur au début des années 1990 d’un manuel de sociologie urbaine qui aujourd’hui encore constitue une référence, mais également chercheur ayant produit de très nombreux travaux et écrits de premier plan sur les processus de ségrégation, les logiques de peuplement, les manières d’habiter ou encore les sociabilités urbaines, il a joué un rôle important dans la promotion de cette discipline en France. Sociologue de la vie urbaine plus que de la ville, il est aussi plus largement un grand sociologue qui a activement contribué à la structuration et à l’animation de la recherche en sciences sociales, à Lyon et à l’échelle nationale, et qui a formé plusieurs générations d’étudiants. Ce livre qui lui est consacré présente, sous la forme d’entretiens, son itinéraire professionnel, la genèse, les objets, les enjeux et les résultats de ses travaux de recherche, ainsi que les notions sociologiques majeures qu’il a mobilisées. Il permet ensuite de découvrir ou de redécouvrir une sélection de textes particulièrement significatifs de sa production, et se termine par les témoignages de quelques-uns de ses collègues.

Abstract

Le débat sur la justice et l'injustice est central et urgent dans les sociétés démocratiques, et la justice sociale est l'horizon de la plupart des politiques d'action sur les territoires. Mais le doute sur les grands récits explicatifs du monde a conduit souvent à relativiser tout discours sur la justice. Ce processus est renforcé par l'émergence de mouvements sociaux divers (féministes, écologistes, anti-racistes...) et par le développement du multiculturalisme : en un même lieu et au même moment se confrontent des acteurs qui ont des conceptions différentes du « juste » et de « l'injuste ». Dans le même temps certains discours ultra-libéraux se passent de plus en plus de la notion de justice sociale. C'est dans ce contexte que se placent les auteurs réunis ici pour interroger spécifiquement la dimension spatiale de la justice sociale. Celle-ci peut être aussi présentée comme l'acceptation de la différence et donc conduire à prôner une politique territoriale attentive aux droits des groupes et une définition procédurale et non plus structurelle de la justice ; de ce point de vue la question des identités et des minorités est d'une actualité brûlante...

Abstract

It’s difficult to overstate the impact of conservative economics on American life. The conservative thought of economists like Milton Friedman, James Buchanan, and Friedrick Hayek has provided the conceptual framework that undergirds nearly every aspect of current U.S. socialeconomic policy. Although a great deal has been written about the economic theories of these Nobel Prizewinning economists, this study is the first to examine the political theory that underlies conservative economics and its implications for public policy.Long associated with the “Chicago” and “public choice” schools of thought, Friedman, Buchanan, Hayek, and others have consistently repudiated Keynesian principles. They have steadfastly opposed social welfare policies and regulation of private enterprise, championing instead the free market as a mechanism for ordering society.In this book Conrad Waligorski analyzes the political content of the conservative economists’ arguments. In so doing, he illuminates the political, economic, and philosophical ideas behind and justification for the laissezfaire policy—the reduced regulation, intervention, and welfare favored by conservative governments in the United States, Canada, and Britain.

Abstract

After roughly 15 years of merger control application in the Federal Republic of Germany a reassessment of the significance of this instrument of antitrust policy seems necessary. This is particularly so in view of the reorientation of merger control policy in the United States which has been - in its original version - the model for the German merger control system.
Concerning merger control, the reorientation is characterized by the notion that the structure-conduct-performance paradigm which has dominated U.S. antitrust for a quarter of a century is imprecise or even incorrect and «that bigness in business does not necessarily mean badness.»
This makes the fundamental question arise of whether the German merger control system is still up to date in terms of the underlying market theory and of whether the German Act Against Restraints of Competition needs a reorientation towards aspects of market conduct and performance instead of market structure by means of a Fifth Amendment.

Abstract

Obsidian Across the Americas draws attention to recent obsidian studies in the Americas and acts as a reference for archaeologists and scholars interested in material culture and exchange. Moreover, it provides a wide range of case studies in obsidian characterization, material application, and theoretical interpretations in the Americas.

The limited geographic occurrence and relatively homogenous nature of obsidian have made the material ideal for archaeometric studies. Since Cann and Renfrew's seminal paper in 1967 on the compositional analysis of obsidian in the Mediterranean, analytical techniques have improved, identification and characterization of sources have increased, and applications have broadened geographically and theoretically to address various socio-cultural activities and behaviours around the world. While many previous publications have focused on different aspects of obsidian characterization, this volume uniquely presents obsidian compositional studies from across the Americas that have relied on the instrumentation housed in the Elemental Analysis Facility at the Field Museum of Natural History. The case studies, which feature materials from North American, Mesoamerican, and South American geological sources, explore the ways in which obsidian analyses have been used to investigate interactions, socio-economic exchanges, and socio-cultural change at multiple scales in the past.
