Anchored in an empirically-grounded anthropology, this book explores the notion of governance in a non-normative way. It describes and analyses the institutional and political processes through which social actors and groups - be they state, private or 'third-sector' - contribute to the provision of public and collective goods or services. The book draws on case studies from Anglophone and Francophone Africa, crossing anthropological traditions that have too often evolved in parallel directions and dealing with a range of topics such as health, water supply, sanitation and waste management, security, humanitarian aid, land issues and decentralisation. Beyond African boundaries, it contributes to current debates about governmentality, public policy, subject making, public/private boundaries, and the role of the state.

Despite the difference in their populations and political status, New Caledonia and Papua New Guinea have comparable levels of economic dependence on the extraction and export of mineral resources. For this reason, the costs and benefits of large-scale mining projects for indigenous communities has been a major political issue in both jurisdictions, and one that has come to be negotiated through multiple channels at different levels of political organisation. The resource boom that took place in the early years of the current century has only served to intensify the political contests and conflicts that surround the distribution of social, economic and environmental costs and benefits between community members and other stakeholders in the large-scale mining industry. However, the mutual isolation of Anglophone and Francophone scholars has formed a barrier to systematic comparison of the relationship between large-scale mines and local-level politics in Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia, despite their geographical proximity. This collection of essays represents an effort to overcome this barrier, but is also intended as a major contribution to the growth of academic and political debate about the social impact of the large-scale mining industry in Melanesia and beyond.

Cet ouvrage propose un remarquable récit du développement en action, centré sur une série de tentatives visant à améliorer les paysages et les modes de vie. L'auteur y expose, en détail tant les pratiques qui permettent aux experts de diagnostiquer les problèmes et de concevoir des interventions, que la capacité d'action des personnes dont les conduites sont visées par les réformes. Combinant très efficacement théorie, ethnographie et histoire, il est mis en lumière le travail d'agents de développement ayant opéré à différentes époques : fonctionnaires et missionnaires coloniaux ; spécialistes de l'agriculture, de l'hygiène et du crédit ; activistes politiques ayant créé leurs propres modèles devant guider les villageois vers des vies meilleures. L'auteur décrit et analyse des opérations visant, sur financements extérieurs, à intégrer des objectifs de conservation de la nature et de développement via la participation des communautés, ainsi qu'un programme gigantesque, d'un milliard de dollars US, conçu par la Banque mondiale pour réactiver ou réinventer la communauté villageoise, inculquer de nouveaux comportements basés sur la compétition et le choix, et reconstruire la société " par le bas ". Démontrant que la volonté d'" agir pour les autres " a une longue et complexe histoire, souvent troublée, Tania Murray Li identifie des récurrences fortes allant de la période coloniale jusqu'à l'époque actuelle. Attentive aux spécificités du développement dans les hautes terres de Sulawesi, en Indonésie, elle montre comment une série d'interventions se sont succédées et aussi imbriquées les unes dans les autres, et elle piste leurs effets contrastés, entre bien-être et famine, suivisme et mobilisation politique, solidarités nouvelles, résistance identitaire et action violente.
