For over a hundred years, writers, artists, anthropologists and tourists have travelled to Bahia, Brazil, in search of the spirit possession cult called Candomblé. Thus, successive generations of cultists have seen a long, steady stream of curious outsiders coming to their temples with notebooks and cameras, questions and inquisitive gazes, or ogling eyes and the hope of inclusion. This study asks what seduced these outsiders to seek access to the Afro-Brazilian religious universe and, conversely, how did cultists respond to the overwhelming interest in their creed and to becoming an object of the outsiders? imaginations.

Longtemps caractérisé par l’opacité et l’arbitraire, le monde carcéral s’est retrouvé au centre des préoccupations politiques et parlementaires au début du XXIe siècle, avec l’adoption de la loi de principes du 12 janvier 2005 « concernant l’administration pénitentiaire ainsi que le statut juridique des détenus », puis celle des deux lois du 17 mai 2006, l’une « relative au statut juridique externe des personnes condamnées à une peine privative de liberté et aux droits reconnus à la victime dans le cadre des modalités d’exécution de la peine » et l’autre « instaurant des tribunaux de l’application des peines ». À ce jour, ces textes ne sont toutefois entrés en vigueur que de manière partielle et la prison reste encore pour partie réglementée par voie de circulaires, n’offrant que peu de garanties de transparence et de sécurité juridique pour le justiciable. L’élaboration d’un manuel qui puisse guider les étudiants comme les praticiens dans les méandres de cette réglementation complexe et toujours en construction paraissait donc répondre à une nécessité pratique. C’est ce que propose le présent ouvrage, qui aborde à la fois les statuts juridiques interne et externe des détenus, la question de l’impact de la détention au regard de la sécurité sociale et celle du droit de plainte des détenus

This volume presents the proceedings of the fifth workshop of the international thematic network ‚Impact of Empire’, which concentrates on the history of the Roman Empire, c. 200 B.C. - A.D. 476, and, under the chairmanship of Lukas de Blois and Olivier Hekster (University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands), brings together ancient historians, archaeologists, classicists and specialists on Roman law from some 28 European and North American universities. The fifth volume focuses on the impact of imperial Rome on religions, ritual and religious life in the Roman Empire. The following topics are treated: connections between Roman expansion and religion, the imperial impact on local cults, cultic personnel (priests, priestesses and bishops), and the divinity of Roman Emperors.

Revival of religious practices of all sorts in China, after decades of systematic government suppression, is a topic of considerable interest to scholars in disciplines ranging from religious studies to anthropology to political science. This book examines contemporary religious practices among the Premi people of the Sichuan-Yunnan-Tibet area, a group of about 60,000 who speak a language belonging to the Qiang branch of Tibeto-Burman. Koen Wellens's ethnographic research in two Premi communities on opposite sides of the border, and his analysis of available historical documents, find multiple advocates and rationales for the revival of both formal Tibetan Buddhism and the indigenous Premi practices centered on ritual specialists called anji.Wellens argues that the variety in the shape the revitalization process takes--as it affects Premi on the Sichuan side of the border and their counterparts on the Yunnan side--can only be understood in a local cultural context. This full-length study of the Premi, the first in a language other than Chinese, makes a valuable contribution to our ethnographic knowledge of Southwest China, as well as to our understanding of contemporary Chinese religious and cultural politics.
