Abstract

In Paradigm and Paradox, Dirk Geeraerts formulated many of the basic tenets that were to form what Cognitive Linguistics is today. Change of Paradigms –New Paradoxes links back to this seminal work, exploring which of the original theories and ideas still stand strong, which new questions have arisen and which ensuing new paradoxes need to be addressed. It thus reveals how Cognitive Linguistics has developed and diversified over the past decades.

Abstract

La multiplication des mosquées, le phénomène « beur », la question des banlieues... voilà autant de réalités qui ont contribué à placer l'immigration au cœur des préoccupations politiques françaises. Pour dépasser les préjugés et les passions qui obscurcissent le débat, cet ouvrage présente une analyse permettant de comprendre les comportements des citoyens issus de l'immigration maghrébine. Leur installation définitive sur le sol national s'inscrit dans une double trajectoire : la revendication de lieux d'expression de l'identité musulmane qui n'empêche nullement l'émergence de comportements plus sécularisés. Elle marque aussi l'apparition d'une nouvelle génération d'acteurs sociaux et politiques. Quelles sont aujourd'hui les différentes manières d'être musulman en France ? Comment s'affirme le rapport de ces populations à la citoyenneté et à l'ethnicité ? Jocelyne Cesari s'attache à expliquer comment et pourquoi ces nouveaux acteurs se mobilisent aujourd'hui dans l'espace public français. Elle a pris le parti de décrire les paradoxes et les enjeux de leurs multiples stratégies - religieuses, culturelles ou politiques -dans les banlieues de Marseille, aussi médiatisées que mal connues. En s'appuyant sur un travail d'enquête approfondi, cet ouvrage met en relief la diversité des rapports que la population musulmane entretient avec la société et l'État français. Cependant, il n'y est pas seulement question de Marseille et des musulmans, mais également des profondes mutations politiques et sociales qui affectent la France d'aujourd'hui.

Abstract

This work argues for a moral consideration of animal work relations. Paying special attention to the livestock industry, the author challenges the zootechnical denigration of animals for increased productivity awhile championing the collaborative nature of work. For Porcher, work is not merely a means to production but a means of living together unity. This unique reconsideration of work envisions animals as co-laborers with humans, rather than overwrought tools for exploitative, and often lethal, employment. Readers will learn about the disjunction between those focused on productivity and profit and those who favor a more ethical work environment for animals. Porcher's text also engages environmental and political debates concerning animal-human relations.

Abstract

For centuries, Muslim countries and Europe have engaged one another through theological dialogues, diplomatic missions, political rivalries, and power struggles. In the last thirty years, due in large part to globalization and migration from Islamic countries to the West, what was previously an engagement across national and cultural boundaries has increasingly become an internalized encounter within Europe itself. Questions of the Hijab in schools, freedom of expression in the wake of the Danish Cartoon crisis, and the role of Shari'a have come to the forefront of contemporary European discourse. 'The Oxford handbook of European Islam' presents a comprehensive approach to the multiple and changing ways Islam has been studied across European countries. Parts one to three address the state of knowledge of Islam and Muslims within a selection of European countries, while presenting a critical view of the most up-to-date data specific to each country. These chapters analyse the immigration cycles and policies related to the presence of Muslims, tackling issues such as discrimination, post-colonial identity, adaptation, and assimilation. The thematic chapters, in parts four and five, examine secularism, radicalization, Shari'a, Hijab, and Islamophobia with the goal of synthesizing different national discussion into a more comparative theoretical framework. The Handbook attempts to balance cutting edge assessment with the knowledge that the content itself will eventually be superseded by events. Featuring eighteen newly-commissioned essays by noted scholars in the field, this volume will provide an excellent resource for students and scholars interested in European Studies, immigration, Islamic studies, and the sociology of religion.
