Eight years after the end of the Lebanese war, the municipal elections of 1998, the first since 1963, are perceived as a stake of representation by all social and political forces in the sense that they sanction in the short term the emergence new political staff in local authorities. They are also seen as a means of giving municipalities a role in local development, within the more general framework of the reconstruction of state structures and the return to civil peace. The re-establishment of municipal authorities through the ballot box immediately raised the question of changing the methods of exercising local power: Do they strengthen or call into question the processes underway at the national level? Are they producing new values and representations of politics? Do the relationships that are forged between these newly elected officials and their constituents reproduce clientelist, bureaucratic, community-type forms of allegiance, or are they characterized by the emergence of another model of “citizenship”? What is the nature of the relationship between elected municipal officials and national elites (deputies, traditionally masters of local space), between municipal authorities and state services (decentralized bodies, responsible before the elections to directly administer the dissolved municipalities , but also delegations from ministries and bodies directly attached to the Presidency of the Council of Ministers)?Do local institutions and elected representatives act as mediators between the society they are supposed to represent and the national power? Consequently, do the forms of territorialisation of power specific to the Lebanese political regime in the post-war period allow the development of notabiliary strategies or do they favour the extension of militia practices? Finally, is the re-establishment of “local administration” (al-idaraal-mahalliyya) accompanied by new modes of public action? These questions were dealt with from three lines of thought: that of local representation, that of participation practices and that of negotiation mechanisms around the implementation of public policies within the municipal framework. This CERMOC book is the result of a one-and-a-half-year collective research program led by a team of sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, geographers and historians led by Agnès Favier. Some studies focus on cross-cutting themes based on a quantitative approach (questionnaire that covers all municipalities in Lebanon): the profiles of municipality presidents elected in 1998, the internal functioning of municipal councils, communication and communication practices. information of municipal authorities, the bipolar logics which characterize the re-composition of local power in a village of displaced persons (Joun) or the functioning of the federation of municipalities of the caza of Jbayl. Several interpretations emerge from this sociology of municipalities two years after the elections: the renewal of local political staff, the variety of strategies for legitimizing elected municipal officials, the still timid dynamism of municipal structures and the weaknesses of municipal autonomy, or even the legacy of war in the structures of local societies.

L’Amazonie revient par vagues dans les médias occidentaux, tandis que son devenir – écologique, économique, politique – se fait plus incertain. Cet ouvrage se penche sur une de ses bordures occidentales, marquée par un mouvement socio-environnemental survenu en 2009. Celui-ci s’est conclu dramatiquement, et a démarré en raison de la remise en cause par le gouvernement du droit de propriété foncière collective des groupes autochtones. Si on a parfois conclu à l’obstruction principielle des indigènes à la marche du progrès, une perspective historienne invite plutôt à revenir sur la relation complexe, nouée par ces mêmes indigènes avec l’État et les dynamiques transnationales qui affectent leurs territoires. C’est le choix fait par cet ouvrage, qui examine un demi-siècle d’histoire dans le Haut Marañón, lieu de vie des Awajún, des Wampís, de populations métisses et d’étrangers, qui donnent à lire un « local » traversé de logiques globalisées. Missionnaires chrétiens, soldats chargés de faire frontière, indigènes allant à la ville et en revenant, colons en quête de subsistances, anthropologues à la recherche d’un autre modèle éducatif, activistes en quête d’une autre construction nationale, ingénieurs, médecins : ces acteurs se croisent, parfois sans se parler, et participent du dialogue difficilement établi avec la selva, cette Amazonie tour à tour fantasmée et crainte, qui n’en a pas moins toute sa place dans l’histoire péruvienne, et dans le débat mondial sur la notion et les modèles de développement.

Reviewing the research in recent decades on the links between religions and social classes amounts in part to documenting an absence. However, this eclipse is relatively recent because this topic has long been a classic in the social sciences. Has the articulation between religious and class affiliations become so discreet or, on the contrary, so obvious that it now flies under our radars? The eleven qualitative surveys gathered in this volume reopen this field of investigation. They question our ways of seeing (or not seeing) these links and invite us to further the analysis beyond apparent elective affinities, by looking at the overlaps, the misalignments and the tensions between religions and social classes. Through immersion in a diversity of historical contexts, geographical areas, religious traditions and social groups, the contributions illustrate the topicality of these questions and their relevance for understanding the construction of social boundaries and the reproduction of inequalities. With its fine empirical analyses and rigorous theoretical framework, this book is a must-read for students and researchers in the social sciences, as well as for all professionals who deal with issues related to religion and class in their work.

Raising Sexually Pure Kids: Sexual Abstinence, Conservative Christians and American Politics analyzes pro-abstinence discourses issued by the conservative Christian community and the G.W. Bush administration, to underline that abstinence is not a peripheral matter, but is a cultural and political issue of great significance in US society, especially in the past decade. This book seeks to bring to light how pro-abstinence discourses coalesce most of the core agendas of conservative Christians – like creationism, parental rights or the culture war - and enabled them and the Bush administration, to on the one hand, preserve traditional hierarchies and on the other hand, maintain the sense of threat necessary to the protection of the status quo and to the enduring commitment of the conservative Christian constituency.

Cette collection d'essais écrits par Maurice Garden au fil des années permet d'entrer dans la fabrique de l'historien. Véritables travaux pratiques d'histoire sociale, ces textes montrent comment utiliser, ou détourner, des sources traditionnelles et comment faire parler des documents improbables. La ville est le lieu des enquêtes ici réunies. Elles questionnent la porosité des hiérarchies sociales, détectant les frontières invisibles au cœur des groupes apparemment les mieux constitués. Elles pénètrent les réseaux et les solidarités qui les traversent tant dans l'hétérogénéité des groupes professionnels que dans les migrations génératrices de la croissance urbaine. Les institutions d'éducation et de santé analysées le sont avec la volonté de traiter dans leur complexité tous les acteurs de ces mondes, y compris les usagers. S'agissant de la médecine, les derniers essais cherchent à révéler les débats des milieux « savants » et « populaires » autour de l'introduction des nouvelles médecines, comme l'homéopathie et les médecines « naturelles ». Au total, cet ensemble de textes révèle des manières de travailler très actuelles : celles de l'historien qui construit son objet d'étude à partir de plusieurs angles de vue, aussi attentif à toutes les catégories sociales qu'au genre, et qui fait varier systématiquement les échelles. Les relire aujourd'hui est une manière de faire de la théorie par la pratique en entrant dans l'analyse concrète et multidimensionnelle des sources. Ces dernières permettent de réfléchir aux moyens de saisir tout à la fois la cohérence et les fractures internes aux groupes et la diversité des individus. Ce qui est, en soi, un programme plus que jamais actuel.

La Bibliothèque nationale de France conserve plusieurs centaines de partitions vénitiennes, imprimées ou manuscrites, d’une très grande valeur musicale et culturelle, dont la simple présence dans notre pays constitue une énigme. Comment ces œuvres sont-elles arrivées en France, alors que depuis 1672 - date à laquelle Jean-Baptiste Lully prend la tête de l’Académie royale de musique - et jusqu’à la fin de l’Ancien Régime, aucun opera seria ultra montain n’est créé sur une scène française ? C’est grâce à son excellente connaissance des rouages de la vie théâtra le et religieuse de Venise que Sylvie Mamy répond à cette question. Sa plume alerte suit à la trace le voyageur français qui, au xviiie siècle, frappe à la porte des copistes de musique de la Cité des doges avec l’ardent espoir de rapporter dans sa malle une aria chantée au théâtre par Farinelli ou par Faustina, fragile évocation de l’émotion d’un instant, qu’au retour on rangera secrètement sur les rayons de sa bibliothèque. Laissant la partition raconter son histoire, l’auteur jette un éclairage tout à fait inattendu sur la diffusion et la réception de l’opéra italien en France et sur les relations entre Paris et Venise au siècle des Lumières, tout en enrichissant un pan entier de l’histoire musicale européenne. Elle nous fait partager son plaisir et son rêve d’une Venise aujourd’hui disparue.
