Abstract

L'Homme a-t-il toujours été violent ? La guerre est-elle consubstantielle au genre humain ou est-elle inhérente à la construction des sociétés modernes ? Nourri par les recherches scientifiques, le débat sur le pourquoi de la violence n'en finit pas de rebondir. Il donne à la querelle qui opposait Rousseau (le "bon sauvage") à Hobbes ("l'homme est un loup pour l'homme") une actualité toute nouvelle. Pour en finir avec les approches caricaturales, Marylène Patou-Mathis propose avec ce livre une vaste enquête qui croise les données de l'archéologie et de l'anthropologie. Explorant les raisons qui ont transformé les chasseurs-cueilleurs en sociétés guerrières, sédentarisation et changement d'économie, avènement du patriarcat, apparition des castes, elle pointe aussi le rôle des croyances et met en évidence l'existence d'une violence antérieure à l'apparition de la guerre. Ainsi se dessine peu à peu le portrait d'un homme préhistorique, dont la violence exprime surtout ses peurs et ses premières pensées existentielles : humain, trop humain. -- 4ème de couverture.

Abstract

This title was first published in 2000: Although the main tragedy of the wars which first erupted in 1991 in former Yugoslavia lies within the Balkan region, the war's shadow is global in outreach. Using a mainly ethnographic approach, this is an exploration of how the Balkan wars have affected the everyday life and mental health in particular of Serbian immigrants and their families in Australia, and how they have responded to long-distance grief, devastation and dislocation.

Abstract

This collection of essays on the Byzantine culture of war in the period between the 4th and the 12th centuries offers a new critical approach to the study of warfare as a fundamental aspect of East Roman society and culture in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The book’s main goal is to provide a critical overview of current research as well as new insights into the role of military organization as a distinct form of social power in one of history’s more long-lived empires. The various chapters consider the political, ideological, practical, institutional and organizational aspects of Byzantine warfare and place it at the centre of the study of social and cultural history. Contributors are Salvatore Cosentino, Michael Grünbart, Savvas Kyriakidis, Tilemachos Lounghis, Christos Makrypoulias, Stamatina McGrath, Philip Rance, Paul Stephenson, Yannis Stouraitis, Denis Sullivan, and Georgios Theotokis.

Abstract

"In Remembering Cold Days, von Klimó examines public contentions over the Novi Sad massacre from its inception in 1942 until the final trial in 2011, and reveals how attitudes changed over time toward this war crime and the Holocaust through different political regimes and in Hungarian society. The book also views how the larger European context influenced Hungarian debates, and how Yugoslavia dealt with memories of the massacre."
