Abstract

« Donner, recevoir, rendre », tel est le triptyque fondamental sur lequel s’ordonnent les rapports sociaux et se constituent les hiérarchies de pouvoir selon l’analyse formulée dès les années 1920 par l’anthropologue Marcel Mauss. Cette dynamique sociale, sans être totalement remise en cause, est aujourd’hui largement interrogée tant par les anthropologues eux-mêmes que par d’autres sciences humaines qui se sont, à leur tour, emparées de cet outil de décryptage du lien social. Et si le don n’était qu’un moteur, parmi un ensemble complexe de dynamiques sociales, dont l’universalité resterait encore à démontrer ? Les réflexions menées dans cet ouvrage font de la sorte ressortir la nécessité d’aller au-delà du stade de la définition de ce que peut être le don dans les sociétés anciennes pour finalement dépasser, en l’adaptant, le concept anthropologique de l’échange réciproque.

Abstract

In China's Regulatory State, Roselyn Hsueh demonstrates that China only appears to be a more liberal state; even as it introduces competition and devolves economic decisionmaking, the state has selectively imposed new regulations at the sectoral level, asserting and even tightening control over industry and market development, to achieve state goals. By investigating in depth how China implemented its economic policies between 1978 and 2010, Hsueh gives the most complete picture yet of China's regulatory state, particularly as it has shaped the telecommunications and textiles industries. Hsueh contends that a logic of strategic value explains how the state, with its different levels of authority and maze of bureaucracies, interacts with new economic stakeholders to enhance its control in certain economic sectors while relinquishing control in others. Sectoral characteristics determine policy specifics although the organization of institutions and boom-bust cycles influence how the state reformulates old rules and creates new ones to maximize benefits and minimize costs after an initial phase of liberalization. This pathbreaking analysis of state goals, government-business relations, and methods of governance across industries in China also considers Japan's, South Korea's, and Taiwan's manifestly different approaches to globalization.

Abstract

The idea of a 'gift economy' has a long tradition in social, economic and cultural studies, since Marcel Mauss' seminal work. But in the latest years, anthropological, philosophical and economic research have underlined that nothing such as a 'gift economy' exists - at least if conceived as a phase preceding modern exchange - and that the 'phenomenon gift' must be understood not only in the different social and cultural contexts in which it is embedded, but also in its coexistence and connections to other forms of exchange, from commerce, to barter, to theft. This book analyzes from a multipli

Abstract

Ce volume constitue les actes d’un colloque international intitulé Doctrinarum disciplina : la transmission des savoirs dans les mondes hellénistique et romain organisé à Nantes en mars 2007. Relevant autant de l’histoire de l’éducation que de l’histoire des idées, les vingt et une contributions réunies, précédées d’un prologue de Jackie Pigeaud, abordent différentes facettes de la notion de transmission. Avant de nous être transmis sous la forme textuelle que nous leur connaissons, les doctrines, savoirs et pratiques de l’Antiquité classique connurent une élaboration et une organisation dont les voies n’ont pas encore été toutes reconnues. Ce sont ici les processus de construction et de diffusion du savoir qui sont soumis à l’analyse. Sans se limiter aux grandes disciplines qui fondent une large part de la littérature émergée (philosophie, médecine, histoire), la réflexion se donne pour champ d’étude l’ensemble des connaissances théoriques ou pratiques faisant l’objet d’une transmission et explore tant les marges de la littérature que les aspects ne relevant pas de l’écrit.

Abstract

The new millennium began with the triumph of democracy and markets. But for whom is life just, how so, and why? And what is being done to correct persisting injustices? Blending macro-level global and national analysis with in-depth grassroots detail, the contributors highlight roots of injustices, how they are perceived, and efforts to alleviate them. Following up on issues raised in the groundbreaking best-seller Power and Popular Protest: Latin American Social Movements (California, 2001), these essays elucidate how conceptions of justice are socially constructed and contested and historically contingent, shaped by people's values and institutionally grounded in real-life experiences. The contributors, a stellar coterie of North and Latin American scholars, offer refreshing new insights that deepen our understanding of social justice as ideology and practice.
