This book explores the impact of transnational migration on the views, feelings, and practices of home among migrants. Home is usually perceived as what placidly lies in the background of everyday life, yet migrants’ experience tells a different story: what happens to the notion of home, once migrants move far away from their “natural” bases and search for new ones, often under marginalized living conditions? The author analyzes in how far migrants’ sense of home relies on a dwelling place, intimate relationships, memories of the past, and aspirations for the future–and what difference these factors make in practice. Analyzing their claims, conflicts, and dilemmas, this book showcases how in the migrants’ case, the sense of home turns from an apparently intimate and domestic concern into a major public question.

De 1899 à 1944 naît et se développe en France un mouvement original et méconnu, le syndicalisme féminin chrétien. Exclusivement féminines, ces organisations sont animées par un militantisme où se mêlent foi chrétienne, apostolat et doctrine sociale de l'Église, centralité de la famille et refus de la lutte des classes. Tout en étant affiliés à la CFTC, les syndicats féminins chrétiens conservent une large autonomie organisationnelle qui favorise l'émergence de fortes personnalités. Ces militantes développent un discours et des pratiques axés sur la défense du travail féminin mais aussi sur la possibilité pour les femmes mariées de rester au foyer. Entre conservatisme et modernité, les syndicalistes chrétiennes offrent une lecture du rôle et de la place des femmes à partir d'un double schéma référentiel qui renvoie à leur expérience syndicale et à leur foi catholique. À la croisée de l'histoire des femmes et de l'histoire sociale, ce livre propose un regard critique sur une expérience singulière dans le paysage syndical français.

Y-a-t'il une pertinence à étudier la place et le rôle des femmes dans les villes ? La ville est un miroir concret des normes de genres et elle est aussi, à travers les choix politiques, l'un des outils de la régulation sociale. Comme expression de la différenciation des sexes, la ville donne à voir les normes qui régissent les comportements collectifs en la matière dans ce qu'elles ont de légal, d'implicite, de caché, d'interdit, de valorisé. Elle montre les archaïsmes et les évolutions, les transitions et les pérennités. Elle fonctionne comme une loupe permettant de mettre en évidence la matérialité de pratiques souvent symboliques. En rétro-action, cet éclairage des fonctionnements et dysfonctionnements sociaux doit pouvoir servir les politiques urbaines en particulier pour leurs orientations vers l'égalité des droits. Du moins, pour autant que les rôles de sexe soient porteurs de dysfonctionnement, ce sur quoi l'analyse des situations urbaines nous éclaire. Les voies de recherche et leurs implications dans l'action politique, au sens le plus large, sont très vastes lorsqu'on confronte les études urbaines et les études sur le genre. Les textes de cet ouvrage amorcent des débats sur la sécurité, les choix résidentiels, la mobilité, l'émancipation notamment. Mais au delà, ce sont les liens entre l'action et la connaissance, la ville et les normes sociales, les territoires urbains et leurs significations qui sont interrogés. La réciprocité de l'étude et de l'action est au cœur de la réflexion sur Femmes et Villes. Comment la ville peut-elle informer la réflexion sur les normes sociales de sexe ? En quoi cela peut-il servir les politiques urbaines ? Voilà les deux questions qui traversent les études présentées à Tours lors du colloque Femmes et Villes de mars 2002, dont cet ouvrage est la restitution.

As a serious drama set in an ordinary middle-class home, Ibsen's A Doll's House established a new politics of the interior that was to have a lasting impact upon twentieth-century drama. In this innovative study, Nicholas Grene traces the changing forms of the home on the stage through nine of the greatest of modern plays and playwrights. From Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard through to Williams's A Streetcar Named Desire, domestic spaces and personal crises have been employed to express wider social conditions and themes of class, gender and family. In the later twentieth century and beyond, the most radically experimental dramatists created their own challenging theatrical interiors, including Beckett in Endgame, Pinter in The Homecoming and Parks in Topdog/Underdog. Grene analyses the full significance of these versions of domestic spaces to offer fresh insights into the portrayal of the naturalistic environment in modern drama.

Depuis les années 1970, grandir dans une famille recomposée concerne un nombre croissant d’individus. Des liens inédits unissent beaux-parents et beaux-enfants, demi et « quasi » frères et sœurs, dans une ordonnance différente des lieux et des temps de la vie familiale. Apparaissent de nouvelles manières de vivre et de penser les liens de famille, qui interrogent nos repères traditionnels. Que signifie être père ou mère, beau-père ou belle-mère dans les familles recomposées ? Est-ce donner la vie, donner son nom et ses biens, nourrir et élever un enfant et le chérir, l’adopter ? Que signifie être frère ou sœur ? Avoir eu les mêmes parents biologiques, avoir partagé son enfance dans un même lieu ? Des relations amoureuses et sexuelles entre « quasi » frères et sœurs sont-elles licites ? C’est à ces questions que tente de répondre ce livre à travers l’exploration ethnographique d’une trentaine d’histoires familiales, où le point de vue des « beaux-enfants », devenus adultes, constitue le principal éclairage. A partir de leurs récits, mis en perspective par le recours à l’histoire et à l’anthropologie, Agnès Martial met au jour l’incertitude des termes, des rôles et des statuts qui constituent la trame familiale recomposée dans notre société. En interrogeant les relations entre générations, souvent perturbées par la séparation du couple parental et la notion d’inceste telle qu’elle émerge des pratiques, des discours et du droit, son analyse des familles recomposées permet de mieux comprendre le contenu des relations de filiation, de germanité et d’alliance dans les sociétés occidentales contemporaines.

In order to fully understand economics, unpaid and voluntary work needs to be taken into account and afforded the same status as paid activities.

Many animals build shelters, but only humans build homes. No other species creates such a variety of dwellings. Drawing examples from across the archaeological record and around the world, archaeologist Jerry D. Moore recounts the cultural development of the uniquely human imperative to maintain domestic dwellings. He shows how our houses allow us to physically adapt to the environment and conceptually order the cosmos, and explains how we fabricate dwellings and, in the process, construct our lives. The Prehistory of Home points out how houses function as symbols of equality or proclaim the social divides between people, and how they shield us not only from the elements, but increasingly from inchoate fear.

Memories establish a connection between a collective and individual past, between origins, heritage, and history. Those who have left their places of birth to make homes elsewhere are familiar with the question, "Where do you come from?" and respond in innumerable well-rehearsed ways. Diasporas construct racialized, sexualized, gendered, and oppositional subjectivities and shape the cosmopolitan intellectual commitment of scholars. The diasporic individual often has a double consciousness, a privileged knowledge and perspective that is consonant with postmodernity and globalization. The essays in this volume reflect on the movements of people and cultures in the present day, when physical, social, and mental borders and boundaries are being challenged and sometimes successfully dismantled. The contributors - from a variety of disciplinary perspectives - discuss the diasporic experiences of ethnic and racial groups living in Canada from their perspective, including the experiences of South Asians, Iranians, West Indians, Chinese, and Eritreans. Diaspora, Memory, and Identity is an exciting and innovative collection of essays that examines the nuanced development of theories of Diaspora, subjectivity, double-consciousness, gender and class experiences, and the nature of home.
