Lorsqu'il entre en histoire, dans les années 1960, Daniel Rivet découvre un paysage des sciences humaines dominé par le structuralisme et marqué par le marxisme. Il y creuse un sillon original, affranchi des modes et des pressions, contribuant au renouveau d'une histoire du Maghreb, sensible à restituer la complexité d'un passé dont les héritages sont encore aujourd'hui vivants. Ce livre donne un aperçu de son œuvre et de son écho chez ses pairs et ses élèves. Il illustre des perspectives ouvertes entre histoire coloniale, histoire de l'Islam comme civilisation et de l'islam comme religion, et interrogations sur l'écriture de l'histoire.En hommage à l'historien de Lyautey et de l'institution du Protectorat français au Maroc, le Maghreb des XIXe et XXe siècles tient ici une place importante. Mais l'environnement culturel arabe invite à porter aussi un regard sur le Proche-Orient. La civilisation et la religion musulmanes y sont envisagées selon une perspective anthropologique qui entend éviter les pièges de l'essentialisation, qu'il s'agisse des espaces et lieux considérés comme sacrés, de la notion d'expatriation ou des rapports entre justice et politique dans l'Islam classique.Cet ouvrage entend développer une réflexion sur l'écriture historienne, sa dimension scientifique et littéraire et son aptitude à la polyphonie, hier, au temps de la nahda, et aujourd'hui, quand il s'agit d'aborder les rivages disputés de l'Islam ou du passé colonial.Dominique Avon est professeur d'histoire contemporaine à l'Université du Maine et enseignant à Sciences Po. Licencié d'arabe (INALCO), il est spécialisé dans l'étude comparée des religions. Membre du CERHIO (UMR 6258), il coordonne le réseau de recherche interdisciplinaire DCIE (Dynamiques citoyennes en Europe).Alain Messaoudi est professeur agrégé à l'École des hautes études en sciences sociales. Au sein du Centre d'histoire sociale de l'Islam méditerranéen (CHSIM), il a contribué à renouveler l'histoire de l'orientalisme français en travaillant sur les études arabes et le Maghreb.

"In Entitled to Nothing, Lisa Sun-Hee Park investigates how the politics of immigration, health care, and welfare are intertwined. Documenting the formal return of the immigrant as a "public charge," or a burden upon the State, the author shows how the concept has been revived as states adopt punitive policies targeting immigrants of color and require them to "pay back" benefits for which they are legally eligible during a time of intense debate regarding welfare reform.
Park argues that the notions of "public charge" and "public burden" were reinvigorated in the 1990s to target immigrant women of reproductive age for deportation and as part of a larger project of "disciplining" immigrants. Drawing on nearly 200 interviews with immigrant organizations, government agencies and safety net providers, as well as careful tracking of policies and media coverage, Park provides vivid, first-person accounts of how struggles over the "public charge" doctrine unfolded on the ground, as well as its consequences for the immigrant community. Ultimately, she shows that the concept of "public charge" continues to lurk in the background, structuring our conception of who can legitimately access public programs and of the moral economy of work and citizenship in the U.S., and makes important policy suggestions for reforming our immigration system"--

A wheel turns because of its encounter with the surface of the road; spinning in the air it goes nowhere. Rubbing two sticks together produces heat and light; one stick alone is just a stick. In both cases, it is friction that produces movement, action, effect. Challenging the widespread view that globalization invariably signifies a "clash" of cultures, anthropologist Anna Tsing here develops friction in its place as a metaphor for the diverse and conflicting social interactions that make up our contemporary world. She focuses on one particular "zone of awkward engagement"--the rainforests of Indonesia--where in the 1980s and the 1990s capitalist interests increasingly reshaped the landscape not so much through corporate design as through awkward chains of legal and illegal entrepreneurs that wrested the land from previous claimants, creating resources for distant markets. In response, environmental movements arose to defend the rainforests and the communities of people who live in them. Not confined to a village, a province, or a nation, the social drama of the Indonesian rainforest includes local and national environmentalists, international science, North American investors, advocates for Brazilian rubber tappers, UN funding agencies, mountaineers, village elders, and urban students, among others--all combining in unpredictable, messy misunderstandings, but misunderstandings that sometimes work out. Providing a portfolio of methods to study global interconnections, Tsing shows how curious and creative cultural differences are in the grip of worldly encounter, and how much is overlooked in contemporary theories of the global.
