    Abstract: In the 18th century, the power of the imagination, which had previously been regarded as problematic, experienced a radical upsurge in esteem. In the modern era, imagination has been viewed as an essential moment in processes of planning, designing, and organizing the world. The creative capacity to place things in relation to each other in time and space has since been considered a vital force in history

    My Amiable Uncle : Recollections about Booth Tarkington (2019)

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: He was twice the winner of the Pulitzer Prize in fiction: in 1919 for The Magnificent Ambersons and in 1922 for Alice Adams. His play Clarence launched Alfred Lunt on his distinguished career and provided Helen Hayes with an early successful role. His Penrod books continued the American boy-story tradition which started with the works of Mark Twain. Early in this century, through his novel The Turmoil, he warned of sacrificing the environment to industrial growth. Yet, since his death in 1946, Booth Tarkington-this writer from the Midwest who accomplished so much-has faded from the memory of the reading public, and many of his works are out of print. But his memory is fresh and vivid in the mind of his grandniece Susanah Mayberry, and her recollections of him leap from the pages of her book. She recalls that as a small child, before she was aware of her uncle's fame as a writer, he emerged as the one figure whose outline was clear among the blur of forms that made up her large family. "No one who met Booth Tarkington ever forgot him," says his great-niece. So, she introduces the reader to this multifaceted individual: the young man-about-town, the prankster, the writer of humorous letters (who drew caricatures in the margins), the bereaved father, the inspiration of the affection of three women (simultaneously), and the lover and collector of art objects and portraits. The author of this volume draws primarily upon her own personal experiences, family lore, and letters (some never published before) to portray her amiable uncle. She tells of the pleasure it gave him to entertain his young nephews and nieces at his Tudor-style winter home in Indianapolis - where they played a spirited form of charades. She recalls vacations which she, as a college student, spent at his light-filled summer home in Kennebunkport, Maine - where she met his famous neighbors. During all of those times, Uncle Booth was the keen observer of youth, who created Penrod and friends from his observations, and the teacher o f youth, who transmitted his own love of art to his young relations. While recapturing memories of the unforgettable Tarkington, Mayberry recreates an era of elegant and leisurely living, when on the dining table "in the fingerbowls . . . were nosegays of sweet peas and lemon verbena or geranium leaves." Susanah Mayberry shares with the reader a treasure of family photographs including Tarkington at various ages; interiors and exteriors of his homes; her father and uncles as children (the models of Penrod); the writer's indomitable sister who championed his early work; and his devoted second wife, a "gentle dragon," who kept his day-to-day life running smoothly. Indiana residents will feel "at home" with the frequent references to the state and its people. Indianapolis of the late nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries influenced Tarkington and his work. The city was his birthplace and his death place. He spent a year at Purdue University where he met such "brilliancies" as George Ade and John McCutcheon. Other famous and not-so-famous Hoosiers became a part of Tarkington's life, and they-along with international literary, theatrical, and political luminaries-reappear in Susanah Mayberry's recollections of her amiable uncle

    Abstract: Dave Ross (1871-1943) and George Ade (1866-1944) were trustees, distinguished alumni and benefactors of Purdue University. Their friendship began in 1922 and led to their giving land and money for the 1924 construction of Ross-Ade Stadium, now a 70,000 seat athletic landmark on the West Lafayette campus. Their life stories date to 1883 Purdue and involve their separate student experiences and eventual fame. Their lives crossed paths with U.S. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, Henry Ford, Amelia Earhart, and Will Rogers among others. Gifts or ideas from Ross or Ade led to creation of the Purdue Research Foundation, Purdue Airport, Ross Hills Park, and Ross Engineering Camp. They helped Purdue Theater, the Harlequin Club and more. Ade, renowned author and playwright, did butt heads with Purdue administrators at times long ago, but remains a revered figure. Ross's ingenious mechanical inventions of gears still steer millions of motorized vehicles, boats, tractors, even golf carts the world over

She examines this watershed period in the city's social and cultural history from the perspective of the town's ordinary men and women, both white and African American, recreating the determined community of laborers, artisans, tradesmen, mechanics, and seamen who demonstrated an incredible perseverance in reshaping their shattered town and lives.

    Abstract: Ideas In Time deals extensively with the history of ideas. The aims of the book are: to provide a coherent theoretical account of the ill-defined field known as 'the history of ideas'; to emphasise the longue durée or long view in intellectual and cultural history; to develop a reconfigured history of ideas, attentive both to the endurance of certain ideas and beliefs, and to breaks and shifts in meaning over time; and to support this general ambition with studies of specific ideas over long durations, namely: the ideas of progress, democracy, zero, charisma, the Olympic games, and the idea of the West. Ideas in Time emphasises both historical continuity and discontinuity, drawing on both perspectives in its reconstruction of the history of ideas. This theoretical model entails the possibility of tracing the history of certain ideas from their ancient origins to their present expression, while acknowledging alterations in meaning determined by changing social and cultural contexts

Este libro entrega lo que me quedó de muchas horas de conversaciones que hice con Luis Alberto Mansilla, las quedaron dispersas en el tiempo. Sobre todo, fueron horas escuchándolo (y de punzarlo para tirarle la lengua). De acuerdo al origen de los dichos, este texto es la exposición de aquél amplio diálogo

    Abstract: Dans ses dimensions méditerranéennes et européennes, l'ouvrage explore l'histoire industrielle contemporaine par l'analyse de ses principaux acteurs  : les hommes - patrons et ouvriers - ou les usines et entreprises, de l'affaire de famille au grand groupe international, de la mine au haut-fourneau. Quelles que soient leur taille ou longévité, toutes ces histoires et monographies s'inscrivent dans un cadre global  : celui de la transformation de leur environnement économique et industriel tout au long des XIXe et XXIe siècles. Les politiques mises en œuvre au niveau national et européen impactent directement ces entreprises. Elles subissent la désindustrialisation ou en profitent. C'est ainsi que le patrimoine, la mémoire de l'industrie deviennent les nouvelles matières premières des historiens, qui investissent les champs les plus récents de la recherche tels les conflits environnementaux. Ce volume d'études en l'honneur du Professeur Philippe Mioche réunit des spécialistes de l'industrie, de ses impacts et évolutions, ainsi que de sa patrimonialisation, du XIXe  siècle à nos jours

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1995. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was paralyzed from the waist down, but he concealed the extent of his disability from a public that was never permitted to see him in a wheelchair. FDR's Secretary of State was old and frail, debilitated by a highly contagious and usually fatal disease that was as closely guarded a state secret as his wife's Jewish ancestry. The undersecretary was a pompous and aloof man who married three times but, when intoxicated, preferred sex with railroad porters, shoeshine boys, and cabdrivers. These three legendary figures-Franklin Roosevelt, Cordell Hull, and Sumner Welles-not only concealed such secrets for more than a decade but did so while directing United States foreign policy during some of the most perilous events in the nation's history. Irwin Gellman brings to light startling new information about the intrigues, deceptions, and behind-the-scenes power struggles that influenced America's role in World War II and left their mark on world events, for good or ill, in the half-century that followed. Gellman had unprecedented access to previously unavailable documents, including Hull's confidential medical records, unpublished manuscripts of Drew Pearson and R. Walton Moore, and Sumner Welles's FBI file. Gellman concludes that while Roosevelt, Hull, and Welles usually agreed on foreign policy matters, the events that molded each man's character remained a mystery to the others. Their failure to cope with their secret affairs-to subordinate their personal concerns to the higher good of the nation-eventually destroyed much of what they hoped would be their legacy. Roosevelt never explained his objectives to his vice president, Harry Truman, or to anyone else. Hull never groomed a successor, and Welles kept his foreign assignations as classified as his sexual orientation. Gellman tells the dramatic story of how three Americans-despite private demons and bitter animosities-could work together to lead their nation to victory against fascism

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1982. Despite a necessary preoccupation with the Revolutionary struggle, America's Continental Congress succeeded in establishing itself as a governing body with national-and international-authority. How the Congress acquired and maintained this power and how the delegates sought to resolve the complex theoretical problems that arose in forming a federal government are the issues confronted in Jack N. Rakove's searching reappraisal of Revolution-era politics. Avoiding the tendency to interpret the decisions of the Congress in terms of competing factions or conflicting ideologies, Rakove opts for a more pragmatic view. He reconstructs the political climate of the Revolutionary period, mapping out both the immediate problems confronting the Congress and the available alternatives as perceived by the delegates. He recreates a landscape littered with unfamiliar issues, intractable problems, unattractive choices, and partial solutions, all of which influenced congressional decisions on matters as prosaic as military logistics or as abstract as the definition of federalism

    The Most Unsordid Act : Lend-Lease, 1939-1941 (2019)

    ISBN: 9781421430713

    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (294 p.)
    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1969. In The Most Unsordid Act, Warren Kimball provides a history of the Lend-Lease idea. The genesis and development of the Lend-Lease idea, although spanning less than two years, offers a subject of the broadest significance for major questions of democratic government and society. The story begins with the United States' growing recognition of the British monetary and gold shortage and ends with the passage of the Lend-Lease Act and the American commitment that it involved. Dr. Kimball's narrative-chronological, detailed, and dramatic-includes analyses of the domestic and international concerns on both sides of the Atlantic and of the roles of the leading protagonists: President F. D. Roosevelt and Treasury Secretary Morgenthau, as well as Stimson, Hull, Churchill, and key British representatives. He also examines the possibility that Lend-Lease was designed to benefit the American economy at Britain's expense. A central question animates Kimball's account: How could a president who recognized the ultimate threat of Nazi Germany, but shared his nation's desire to avoid war, find a way to help an ally? The portrait of Roosevelt that emerges is instructive in view of revisionist histories that present him as a Machiavellian figure disingenuously leading his country to war. Kimball sees him, rather, as an essentially domestic president whose experiences and interests evolved from national concerns-as a man unschooled in international affairs, eager to avoid confrontation with his congressional opposition, wary of the British penchant for power politics, given to procrastination when faced with difficult problems, and anxious to avoid full-scale war. Yet, the administration's legislative strategy and the debate over the Lend-Lease Act clearly demonstrated that the president, his closest advisers, and the Congress were aware that the legislation would inevitably mean war with Germany. Based on such sources as the diaries of Morgenthau, the State Department Archives, Foreign Economic Administration records, the Stimson papers, and interviews with participants, this study provides insights that raise central questions about the functioning of the American system of government

    Abstract: « Je suis convaincu que les lecteurs de cette ego-histoire attendent de ma part le récit d'un retour au pays, la rassurante trajectoire d'un fils d'immigrés espagnols devenu un médiéviste français de l'Espagne. Pourquoi pas. Mais les chemins du retour ne sont pas toujours les plus droits, et ramènent-ils toujours au point de départ attendu ? » Loin de proposer l'histoire linéaire de sa trajectoire, François Foronda la soumet ici à un exercice d'auto-analyse, en historien, sur la base de ses archives personnelles. Davantage que des retours, cet exercice le conduit à réaliser un voyage fait d'un constant va-et-vient entre quatre lieux de mémoire, deux pays, le passé et le présent, la vie académique et la vie personnelle, que l'auteur tient également pour une vie majuscule. Et une forme de réconciliation libératrice se fait jour au bout de ce voyage, pratiquement circulaire, dans l'arrière-pays retrouvé de la vocation historienne de l'auteur

Housing adaptations are one of the main tools for improving quality of life for people with severe disabilities and for their caregivers. They are also the main tool of the ADA Project, an action research that developed a strategy to tailor adaptations to the specific user needs and profiles. After an introduction to disability, accessibility and housing adaptations, the book describes the ADA Project's goals, stages and tools. It then focuses on the main scientific outcome of the Project: the ADA Assessment Model (AdAM), an interdisciplinary tool that analyses and assesses the functional and social profile of disabled persons and their relationship with the physical environment in which they live

    Abstract: Originally published in 1979. The idea of the "South" has its roots in Romanticism and American culture of the nineteenth century. This study by Michael O'Brien analyzes how the idea of a unique Southern consciousness endured into the twentieth century and how it affected the lives of prominent white Southern intellectuals. Individual chapters treat Howard Odum, John Donald Wade, John Crowe Ransom, Allen Tate, Frank Owsley, and Donald Davidson. The chapters trace each man's growing need for the idea of the South-how each defined it and how far each was able to sustain the idea as an element of social analysis. The Idea of the American South moves the debate over Southern identity from speculative essays about the "central theme" of Southern history and, by implication, past the restricted perception that race relations are a sufficient key to understanding the history of Southern identity

    The Road to Normalcy : The Presidential Campaign and Election of 1920 (2019)

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1962. In The Road to Normalcy, Wesley M. Bagby explains how the election of 1920 contributed to momentous shifts in American politics by detailing why the major political parties abandoned sentiments that were widely accepted several years prior to the election. Prior to World War I, two significant streams of progressivism maintained center stage in American politics-the Progressive movement and the world peace movement. The war proved not to be prohibitively distracting for the Progressive movement, which carried on well into the war years. But the war also introduced new elements into American political life, such as the restriction of free speech, popular outbursts of intolerance and hatred encouraged by war propaganda, and a belief in the necessity and efficacy of violence. Many of these elements eroded the ideals undergirding the Progressive movement. The international peace movement reflected the spirit of idealistic internationalism that characterized the tenor of American foreign policy from the beginning to the end of the war. However, the election of 1920, the first presidential election after World War I, addressed the question of whether America would resume its progressive efforts at home and abroad following the war. The election ultimately stymied both political currents, proving to be an end for both the Progressive movement and the world peace movement

    Trade and Aid : Eisenhower's Foreign Economic Policy, 1953-1961 (2019)

    Abstract: Originally published in 1982. Trade and Aid outlines the transition of U.S. foreign policy during the Eisenhower administration. In the years leading up to Eisenhower's election, America's predominant foreign economic program was based on the concept of "trade not aid," which deemphasized foreign aid and relied instead on liberalized world trade and the encouragement of private foreign investment to assure world economic growth. When Eisenhower took office in 1953, he embraced this doctrine. However, as problems in the Third World worsened, it became clear to Eisenhower and other architects of American foreign policy that trade and private investment were insufficient solutions to the economic woes of developing nations. In 1954 Eisenhower began to embrace economic aid as a core axis of his foreign economic policy. Burton I. Kaufman contextualizes Eisenhower's foreign policy leadership in the ongoing historical evaluation of Eisenhower's leadership prowess. He evaluates the outcomes of the Eisenhower administration's trade and aid program, arguing that developing countries were worse off by the time Eisenhower left office

    Abstract: Boston, the headquarters of radical abolition during the antebellum period, is, paradoxically, often thought of as unfriendly to African-Americans today. In this study of the city's significant role in the fight against racism between 1890 and 1920, Mark Robert Schneider illuminates the vital links between Boston's antislavery tradition, race reform at the turn of the century, and the modern civil rights movement. Originally published by Northeastern University Press in 1997. With a new foreword by Zebulon Vance Miletsky

    Abstract: « Interroger l'entrelacement du théâtre et du patrimoine permet d'envisager l'œuvre du spectacle vivant, art du présent, dans la construction collective d'un rapport au passé et permet de révéler une histoire des sensibilités. » Le couvent des Carmes, à l'abandon jusque dans les années 1960, a connu une nouvelle vie grâce au théâtre. Site historique converti en scène du Festival d'Avignon, c'est aussi dans ses vestiges qu'est né le Festival OFF. Les créateurs et spectateurs en ont fait un espace gagné par des conflits de mémoire. Il a pu influencer les mises en scène par sa disposition particulière mais également par sa symbolique historique et religieuse, tout en interrogeant les relations entre théâtre et patrimoine. Illustré par un des photographes emblématiques du Festival, Christophe Raynaud de Lage, cet ouvrage réunit des chercheurs venus d'horizons disciplinaires variés, allant de l'histoire à la littérature en passant par les études théâtrales

    Abstract: The conquest and colonization of the Americas marked the beginning of a social, economic, and cultural change of global scale. Most of what we know about how colonial actors understood and theorized this complex historical transformation comes from Spanish sources. This makes the few texts penned by Indigenous intellectuals in colonial times so important: they allow us to see how some of those who inhabited the colonial world in a disadvantaged position thought and felt about it. This book shines light on Indigenous perspectives through a novel interpretation of the works of the two most important Amerindian intellectuals in the Andes, Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala and Garcilaso de la Vega, el Inca. Building on but also departing from the predominant scholarly position that views Indigenous-Spanish relations as the clash of two distinct cultures, Gonzalo Lamana argues that Guaman Poma and Garcilaso were the first Indigenous activist intellectuals and that they developed post-racial imaginaries four hundred years ago. Their texts not only highlighted Native peoples' achievements, denounced injustice, and demanded colonial reform, but they also exposed the emerging Spanish thinking and feeling on race that was at the core of colonial forms of discrimination. These authors aimed to alter the way colonial actors saw each other and, as a result, to change the world in which they lived

    Abstract: Das Wachstum des zivilen Luftverkehrs bedeutet eine große Herausforderung für die Luftfahrtbranche. Nur durch effizientere Triebwerke können der spezifische Verbrauch von fossilen Energieträgern und die spezifischen Emissionen reduziert werden und so der Zugang zu Flugreisen für die wachsende Weltbevölkerung sichergestellt werden. Einen maßgeblichen Beitrag zur Steigerung der Effizienz kann die Optimierung der Kühlung von heißen Komponenten des Kerntriebwerks leisten. Gerade im thermisch hoch belasteten Bereich der ersten Turbinenstufen werden große Mengen an Kühlluft verwendet, die sich negativ auf den thermischen Wirkungsgrad auswirken. Neue Kühlverfahren ermöglichen es, den Kühlluftbedarf bei gleichen Standzeiten der Bauteile zu verringern. Vor einem möglichen Einsatz müssen diese neuen Verfahren untersucht und ihre Leistungsfähigkeit bestimmt werden, vor allem die Vorhersage der Materialtemperatur der Schaufeln muss hoch präzise erfolgen.Die vorliegende Arbeit präsentiert neue Verfahren zur Kühlung von Rotorschaufeln. Es wird speziell auf die Drallkühlung eingegangen, die sich in grundlegenden Untersuchungen und in Verbindung mit den sich rapide verbessernden Möglichkeiten der additiven Fertigung als vielversprechendes Verfahren herausgestellt hat. Zur Beurteilung der neuen Konzepte werden Untersuchungen durchgeführt, bei denen die wichtigen strömungsmechanischen Ähnlichkeitskennzahlen der Maschine eingehalten werden. So können die Ergebnisse unmittelbar auf den Einsatz im Triebwerk übertragen werden. Die Untersuchungen bedeuten eine Herausforderung für die als Messtechnik eingesetzte Infrarotthermographie. Neue Kalibrierverfahren werden entwickelt und überprüft. Durch Anwendung dieser Verfahren kann die Oberflächentemperatur der Prüflinge hoch genau bestimmt werden. Anhand der mit den neuen Verfahren bestimmten Verteilung der Oberflächentemperatur und weiteren aerodynamischen Messungen werden abschließend Empfehlungen formuliert, wie ein auf Drallkühlung basierendes Kühlsystem für Turbinenrotorschaufeln leistungsfähiger werden kann und so die geforderte Lebensdauer dieser Bauteile sicherstellen kann

    Abstract: À partir de 1991, la Yougoslavie socialiste se désintègre dans une violence inouïe. Peu avant, le monde avait découvert la situation sanitaire désastreuse de la Roumanie post-communiste. Alors que la construction européenne est perçue comme un horizon indépassable, les Balkans réapparaissent sur la carte mentale des Européens comme un problème plutôt qu'une réalité géographique. Face à ces crises médiatisées que les interventions étrangères semblent aggraver et que les intellectuels sont impuissants à expliquer, l'incompréhension et le désarroi ont été fréquents. En France, des mobilisations citoyennes ont succédé aux débats passionnés avec l'ambition d'imaginer la solidarité de demain. Novateurs dans leurs formes et leur ampleur, ces moments militants ont pourtant été sans lendemain. Ce sont les données de cette expérience française que ce livre explore: celles propres à la période contemporaine qui commence au sortir de la confrontation des blocs - traitement humanitaire des crises, désengagement partisan et idéologie européenne -, mais aussi les savoirs façonnés par une histoire longue des relations franco-balkaniques, faite d'universalisme républicain et de filtres militants, de méconnaissance séculaire de « l'autre Europe » aussi que de fascination pour ses cultures populaires. Il s'agit d'écrire une histoire connectée de la décennie 1990, marquée autant en France que dans les Balkans par l'effacement du communisme comme réalité politique et référence, la reformulation des discours sur la nation, l'ethnicité et l'engagement politique

    Abstract: On associe souvent le 1er juillet 1867 à la date de la Confédération canadienne, le jour de naissance du nouveau pays. Mais le processus ne faisait que s'amorcer en 1867. Du petit dominion aux frontières restreintes, le pays est devenu une fédération beaucoup plus vaste, composée de dix provinces, trois territoires et de centaines de communautés autochtones. Les politiciens ont longtemps débattu de la notion de pays et ont prudemment pesé les avantages et les inconvénients d'une adhésion à la Confédération canadienne. La Confédération, 1864-1999: Nouvelles perspectives regroupe plusieurs grands spécialistes de l'histoire du Canada dont le but est de porter une attention renouvelée sur la manière dont les provinces, les territoires ainsi que les régions sujettes aux Traités ont acquis leurs formes actuelles. En partenariat avec Les Débats de la Confédération, un projet de production participative non-partisan et sans but lucratif visant à numériser les documents fondateurs du Canada, cet ouvrage novateur intègre les traités entre les peuples autochtones et la Couronne, de façon à éclairer à la fois la création et l'expansion de la Confédération canadienne. Ce faisant, le livre révèle l'histoire tumultueuse, complexe et évolutive de chaque province et territoire. Chercheur indépendant, Daniel Heidt est spécialiste en histoire politique de l'Ontario et du Canada ainsi que l'Arctique à l'époque de la guerre froide. Il a fondé et dirige Les Débats sur la Confédération

    Abstract: Originally published in 1973. Professor Nathans illuminates the changes wrought by Jacksonian democracy on the career of Daniel Webster, a major political figure, and on the destiny of a major political party, the Whigs. Daniel Webster was a creative anachronism in the Jacksonian era. His career illustrates the fate of a generation of American politicians, reared to rule in a traditional world of defined social classes where gentlemen led and the masses followed. With extensive research into primary sources, Nathans interprets Webster as a leader in the older political tradition, hostile to permanent organized political parties and fearful of social strife that party conflict seemed to promote. He focuses on Webster's response to the rise of entrenchment of voter-oriented partisan politics. He analyzes Webster's struggle to survive, comprehend, and finally manipulate the new politics during his early opposition to Jackson; his roles in the Bank War and the nullification crisis; and the contest for leadership within the Whig Party from 1828 to 1844. Webster and the Whigs resisted and then belatedly attempted to answer the demands of the new egalitarian mass politics. When Webster failed as an apologist for government by the elite, he became a rhapsodist of American commercial enterprise. Seeking a new power base, he adapted his public style to the standards of simplicity and humility that the voters seemed to reward. Nathans shows, however, that Webster developed a realistic vision of the common bonds of Jacksonian society-of the basis for community-that would warrant anew the trust needed for the kind of leadership he offered. The meaning of Webster's career lies in these attempts to bridge the old and new politics, but his attempt was doomed to ironic and revealing failure. Nathans studies Webster's impact on the Whig party, showing that his influence was strong enough to thwart the ambitions of his rivals Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun but not strong enough to achieve his own aspirations. Nathans argues that Webster, through his efforts to increase his authority within the party, merely revealed his true weakness as a sectional leader. His successful blocking of Clay and Calhoun brought about a deadlock that significantly hastened the transfer of power to men more committed to strong party organization and more talented at voter manipulation. Webster's dilemma was the crisis of an entire political generation reared for a traditional world and forced to function in a modern one

    Abstract: Originally published 1982. Bodnar's central concern in Workers' World is with the working people of Pennsylvania prior to World War II. He examines how ordinary people throughout the state navigated the changing set of industrial relations that fanned out across the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Since workers could not rely on unionism or government-sponsored safety nets, workers in Pennsylvania relied on kinship ties, job structures, and community relationships. In the past, Bodnar contends, American labor historians have focused mainly on the history of strikes, the rise of unionism, and the struggle for control over the workplace. In an effort to mitigate historians' flattening of workers into the two-dimensional plane of politics and protest, Bodnar revives workers and the world in which they lived by conducting oral interviews with textile workers, coal miners, steelworkers, and others in Pennsylvania

    Abstract: La memoria de las rebeliones tiene un significado político. Cuando las reinscribimos en una narración traducible hacemos con ellas "una ofrenda de sentido, no para la repetición sino para la disrupción y para la invención", afirma Diego Tatián. Sin esa acción de memoria no sería posible el advenimiento de otra cosa, distinta de lo que hay, pero también de lo que la memoria resguarda de su pérdida. Vivimos en una región de revoluciones. La revolución ha constituido uno de los temas principales del pensamiento crítico caribeño que pretende recuperar las fuentes, las lecturas realizadas y visibilizar la trascendencia de los actos, una vez que la tórrida región es testigo de paradigmáticos procesos de su tipo. En estas islas las llamas han llegado al cielo para convertirse en sucesos, en texto esencial del mundo colonial, del Sur; procesos que después de acaecidos han forzado a Occidente a ser diferente y provocar un "giro del revés

    Abstract: ¿Y si sostuviéramos que -lejos de las extendidas estigmatizaciones que asocian la juventud de sectores populares con la delincuencia- un gran número de jóvenes de comunidades golpeadas por la violencia social y la ausencia de políticas públicas dedicara sus días a cuidar de otros jóvenes? El trabajo de Yicel Giraldo Giraldo y Alexander Ruiz Silva estudia la solidaridad como eje y motor de las organizaciones sociales juveniles volcadas a cuidar de sus semejantes, ensayando una interpretación de las apuestas éticas y políticas que despliegan las y los jóvenes de las comunas de Medellín para enfrentar situaciones adversas marcadas por el dolor y el sufrimiento. A través de 32 historias de vida de jóvenes, Solidaridad propone reconstruir la compleja trama de iniciativas y acciones solidarias que impulsan los jóvenes de las comunas de Medellín. La música, el audiovisual, la danza, el arte del grafiti y la defensa del medioambiente, son plataformas desde donde los jóvenes convocan al otro, lo afectan, lo conmueven, lo convocan a hacer comunidad

    Abstract: What drove U.S. Catholics in their arduous quest, full of twists and turns over more than a century, to win an American saint? The absence of American names in the canon of the saints had left many of the faithful feeling spiritually unmoored. But while canonization may be fundamentally about holiness, it is never only about holiness, reveals Kathleen Sprows Cummings in this panoramic, passionate chronicle of American sanctity. Catholics had another reason for petitioning the Vatican to acknowledge an American holy hero. A home-grown saint would serve as a mediator between heaven and earth, yes, but also between Catholicism and American culture. Throughout much of U.S. history, the making of a saint was also about the ways in which the members of a minority religious group defined, defended, and celebrated their identities as Americans. Their fascinatingly diverse causes for canonization-from Kateri Tekakwitha and Elizabeth Ann Seton to many others that are failed, forgotten, or still under way-represented evolving national values as Catholics made themselves at home. Cummings's vision of American sanctity shows just how much Catholics had at stake in cultivating devotion to men and women perched at the nexus of holiness and American history-until they finally felt little need to prove that they belonged

    Abstract: Aunque resulte tan poco conocido como enormemente olvidado, fue el libro Cuba revolucionaria quien inició una teorización marxistafeminista del trabajo doméstico. Desde La Habana, Isabel Larguía y John Dumoulin comenzaron a difundir su primer manuscrito titulado “Por un feminismo cientíco", editado en 1971 por Casa de Las Américas. Sus esfuerzos intelectuales estaban dirigidos a comprender las modalidades de explotación que atañen a las mujeres, así como las posibles alternativas emancipatorias. Su objetivo no era tanto el de agregar una nota al pie a los escritos de Karl Marx y Friedrich Engels sino poner en tensión los límites del marxismo y el feminismo a la hora de interceptar la opresión de las mujeres. La contribución de Larguía-Dumoulin constituye un modo de adentrarnos a los complejos y no siempre armoniosos vínculos entre el feminismo y marxismo, introduciéndonos histórica y políticamente en las tensiones y acercamientos que se produjeron entre feministas y otras organizaciones de izquierda en América Latina y El Caribe. Este ensayo -merecedor del Premio Fondo nacional de las Artes de Argentina- es decididamente polifónico. Está hecho de retazos de memorias, de escritura feminista que actualmente goza el estatuto de archivo, discursos historiográficos, análisis teóricos, declaraciones sociales y renovados estudios cubanos sobre las mujeres.

    Abstract: A visually striking intercultural exploration of the use of mobile phones in Aboriginal communities in Australia. Yuta is the Yolngu word for new. Phone & Spear: A Yuta Anthropology is a project inspired by the gloriously cheeky and deeply meaningful audiovisual media made with and circulated by mobile phones by an extended Aboriginal family in northern Australia. Building on a ten-year collaboration by the community-based arts collective Miyarrka Media, the project is an experiment in the anthropology of co-creation. It is a multivoiced portrait of an Indigenous society using mobile phones inventively to affirm connections to kin and country amid the difficult and often devastating circumstances of contemporary remote Aboriginal life. But this is not simply a book about Aboriginal art, mobile phones, and social renewal. If old anthropology understood its task as revealing one world to another, yuta anthropology is concerned with bringing different worlds into relationship. Following Yolngu social aesthetics—or what Miyarrka Media translate as “the law of feeling”—the book is a relational technology in its own right: an object that combines color, pattern, and story to bring once distant worlds into new sensuously mediated connections

A dedicated and thorough ethnographer, Goodwin became familiar with every aspect of Western Apache culture. During this same period, Morris Opler was studying the Chiricahua and Mescalero Apache in New Mexico. In order to exchange information about their studies, Goodwin and Opler began corresponding. Both men were convinced that a long-overdue, systematic comparison of Apachean cultures would yield significant results

Throughout much of U.S. history, the making of a saint was also about the ways in which the members of a minority religious group defined, defended, and celebrated their identities as Americans. Their fascinatingly diverse causes for canonization—from Kateri Tekakwitha and Elizabeth Ann Seton to many others that are failed, forgotten, or still under way—represented evolving national values as Catholics made themselves at home. Cummings's vision of American sanctity shows just how much Catholics had at stake in cultivating devotion to men and women perched at the nexus of holiness and American history—until they finally felt little need to prove that they belonged

    Abstract: En tiempos de golpes de Estado y de mercado, de guerras jurídicas y persecuciones a lideres políticos y sociales resulta indispensable construir alternativas de gobierno capaces de defender las conquistas sociales, la soberanía regional y la vida en democracia. Este libro ofrece un balance de los logros alcanzados por los gobiernos progresistas, nacionales y populares durante la primera década del siglo XXI, e identifica los aprendizajes que dejaron aquellas experiencias haciendo foco en tres grandes áreas temáticas: la económica-productiva-financiera, la agenda social y de ampliación de derechos –teniendo especialmente en cuenta la agenda de género– y la construcción del entramado de cooperación política e integración regional. Las sendas abiertas en América Latina reúne las clases dictadas por grandes referentes del campo político y académico que participaron de la Especialización en Procesos Políticos Latinoamericanos del Siglo XXI organizado conjuntamente por CLACSO, el Instituto Gino Germani de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de Buenos Aires y la Universidad Metropolitana para la Educación y el Trabajo, bajo la coordinación de Daniel Filmus y Lucila Rosso

    Abstract: Los estudios sociales en ciencia y tecnología en América Latina cuentan ya con medio siglo de desarrollo en la región. El origen del campo en los años sesenta dotó de características propias que permanecieron, a lo largo de las décadas con diferentes niveles de intensidad, en el marco de nuevos modelos y formas de pensar el desarrollo y de afrontar las condiciones de pobreza y exclusión de nuestras sociedades. Una vez recorrida la etapa de profesionalización del campo –y en diálogo con la dinámica de construcción de estos estudios en los países del norte– se retomaron desde nuevas preguntas y perspectivas aquellas reflexiones iniciadas en los años sesenta, al tiempo que se generaron esfuerzos por construir miradas originales sobre los significados sociales, económicos y políticos de la ciencia y la tecnología. Así se construyeron enfoques y perspectivas analíticas que aprovechan los aportes del campo a nivel internacional y los alimentan con perspectivas regionales. Ciencia, tecnología y sociedad en América Latina está organizado en cinco secciones variadas y heterogéneas, referidas todas ellas a América Latina, en las que se discuten problemas sociales muy diversos. El rico caudal de estas investigaciones sostiene como objetivo común la superación del atraso y de la dependencia de nuestros países, y la búsqueda de estrategias adecuadas en pos de mejorar las condiciones de vida en la región. Con una perspectiva múltiple e interdisciplinar, investigadores jóvenes del continente muestran la riqueza y la relevancia de los estudios actuales en este campo

    Abstract: Canada's centennial anniversary in 1967 coincided with a period of transformative public policymaking. This period saw the establishment of the modern welfare state, as well as significant growth in the area of cultural diversity, including multiculturalism and bilingualism. Meanwhile, the rising commitment to the protection of individual and collective rights was captured in the project of a "just society." Tracing the past, present, and future of Canadian policymaking, Policy Transformation in Canada examines the country's current and most critical challenges: the renewal of the federation, managing diversity, Canada's relations with Indigenous peoples, the environment, intergenerational equity, global economic integration, and Canada's role in the world. Scrutinizing various public policy issues through the prism of Canada's sesquicentennial, the contributors consider the transformation of policy and present an accessible portrait of how the Canadian view of policymaking has been reshaped, and where it may be heading in the next fifty years

    Abstract: La educación es un derecho fundamental y una herramienta de transformación social. La escuela media en particular es un espacio que contribuye a la formación de subjetividades juveniles, es un ámbito de interpretación e integración simbólica, de estructuración de proyectos y expectativas de vida. Pero también es un espacio atravesado por lógicas excluyentes y discriminatorias. En los próximos decenios, la generación formada en las dos primeras décadas del siglo XXI enfrentará las viejas y persistentes desigualdades étnicas de clase y género, sumadas a las nuevas problemáticas que se han ido imponiendo en las sociedades periféricas (y también en las centrales), posmodernas y neocoloniales. Nuevos clivajes reúne nueve artículos de investigadoras e investigadores que integran dos espacios de trabajo académico y de redes de colaboración: el GT “Heterogeneidad estructural y desigualdad social" y la Red Internacional para el Análisis Comparado de las Desigualdades Sociales (INCASI)

    Abstract: Este libro pone en diálogo las discusiones del buen vivir con una serie de propuestas que se desplegaron entre mediados de la década de los sesenta y comienzos de la década del ochenta en América Latina. En aquél contexto, Fundación Bariloche, Oscar Varsavsky y, en buena medida la CEPAL, se ocuparon de formular alternativas al patrón de desarrollo centrado en el crecimiento económico, al tiempo que mostraron la factibilidad de esos otros estilos de desarrollo mediante el diseño de modelos matemáticos multivariados. Más recientemente, las propuestas del buen vivir, inspiradas en el Sumak Kawsay, han involucrado una profunda crítica al neoliberalismo y su modelo civilizatorio. La apuesta del libro es desestabilizar el efecto de homogeneidad y evidencia con el que suele presentarse "EL" desarrollo y mostrar que en distintas coyunturas ha sido objeto de impugnaciones y luchas

    Abstract: Este libro comenzó a escribirse en 2010 y fue finalizado en la primavera de 2019, cuando en distintos países de América Latina, miles y miles de manifestantes colmaban las calles para expresar su disconformidad y hartazgo con el accionar de gobiernos conservadores y cuando, en Uruguay, el Frente Amplio (FA) enfrentaba su hora electoral más difícil en las últimas dos décadas. Estas páginas no fueron escritas de un tirón, sino de a pedazos, en numerosos artículos académicos, columnas de opinión y conferencias dictadas sobre los gobiernos de izquierda en la región. En 2009 fui elegida Senadora de la República por el FA, en el marco de un amplio movimiento que llevó a José Mujica al triunfo. Cinco años más tarde, en 2014, renové mi banca parlamentaria a través de otro movimiento: el que confluyó en la fundación de un nuevo grupo político dentro del FA: el sector Casa Grande. En estos quince de administraciones frenteamplistas en Uruguay hubo una ola de gobiernos de izquierda latinoamericanos de diversa procedencia y conformación que tuve el privilegio de conocer de cerca. De la interacción con estos partidos y movimientos me nutrí como política y como politóloga experimentando en carne propia lo que Álvaro García Linera denominara “una década de oro" en América Latina. Jamás imaginé que se pudiera hacer tanto en tan poco tiempo. Este libro honra el espíritu de esos tiempos donde se recorren las experiencias de los países que protagonizaron el llamado “giro a la izquierda" o “giro progresista"en el subcontinente y, en particular, deja un registro de lo que sucedió en el casouruguayo. Ello, desde la mirada de alguien que lo vivió por dentro. Constanza Moreira

    Abstract: En tiempos caracterizados por una concentración inaudita de capital, por un concomitante empobrecimiento de camadas sociales intermedias, y por la marginación creciente de aquellos que provienen del mundo obrero, empujados por situaciones de tremenda precariedad, las clases se reestructuran, pero no desaparecen. Entonces, lejos de “perfumar" al capitalismo, está emergiendo toda una generación de intelectuales y artistas cuyo objetivo es comprenderlo para poder superarlo, también a través de la fuerza material de las ideas.

    Abstract: Celebro la publicación de este segundo volumen del “Grupo de Trabajo CLACSO Pueblos indígenas y procesos autonómicos" integrado por diez artículos, escritos por jóvenes investigadores. Este Grupo de Trabajo se ocupa en documentar las luchas y los procesos autonómicos de pueblos indígenas, y se caracteriza por su perspectiva plural, en ejercicios dialógicos y debates críticos, con proyectos de investigación situados, colaborativos y comprometidos con las luchas de los pueblos con los que trabajan. En el presente volumen un eje transversal que cruza todos los documentos es el esfuerzo por intentar puntualizar y definir el concepto de autonomía en las realidades que observan, en el ánimo de cuestionar y actualizar el concepto. Estos ejercicios ofrecen un resultado provechoso, que en su conjunto da cuenta de la polisemia del concepto, de sus múltiples sentidos, y también de su complejidad. Interrogarse sobre qué es la autonomía; cómo se argumenta; cómo se materializa; cuáles son sus avances, retos y desafíos y, sobre todo, cómo los pueblos indígenas con los que ellos trabajan construyen su autonomía; son preguntas que encuentran respuestas en cada uno de los capítulos del libro

    Abstract: Esta antología recopila estudios en perspectiva crítica, para aportar a una interpretación racional y objetiva de la realidad de Honduras los últimos cincuenta años. Los trabajos aquí reunidos han sido formulados desde muy diversos enfoques, con un denominador común: diferenciarse de aquella interpretación convencional de los fenómenos y procesos que cumple funciones de justificación del statu quo y suele circunscribirse al discurso oficial. Se han antologado veintidós trabajos, agrupados como una pluralidad de discursos cuestionadores y propositivos. Los trabajos no están presentados en un orden cronológico, sino en uno sistemático. Se han agrupado en tres secciones: Dinámica del poder, Sociedad, economía y desarrollo, y Pensar la nación. Los textos de la primera sección hacen referencia tanto a la crisis centroamericana y el inicio de la transición democrática, como al momento presente. La segunda sección incluye trabajos de los años sesenta y setenta del siglo anterior, junto con aportes actuales. En la sección tercera, cuyo objeto de estudio es la nación, los textos tienen una temporalidad más amplia, yendo del siglo XX al XXI

El libro nos traslada desde el Pachakuti -el momento de la revuelta o de transformación del orden establecido, el cual se abrió camino desde las luchas comunitarias del primer lustro de este siglo, principalmente desde formas autónomas y autorreguladas de los pueblos indígenas-, hasta el momento del Tinku, que desde 2006, pero principalmente a partir del proceso de Asamblea Constituyente, se vivió como tensión o disputa de poder entre la concreción de un Estado plurinacional y una estructura de Estado corporativa con creciente capacidad hegemónica y de cooptación sobre el gran movimiento popular comunitario autónomo

    Abstract: El estudio etnográfico sobre los chichimecas jonáz, reconoce en la historia a uno de los pueblos originarios cazadores-recolectores del centro-norte de México, más denostado desde la época prehispánica por los Mexica o Aztecas, considerados como “perros sucios, inciviles", significado del término chichimeca; bárbaros-salvajes, por los conquista- dores ibéricos; holgazanes, que no trabajan y no producen nada, por algunos habitantes de San Luis de la Paz, Guanajuato. El lector encontrará cómo los chichimecas-jonáz continúan siendo una sociedad marginal al resto de la sociedad dominante, pero resistiendo ante el embate del sistema capitalista que se apropia de sus territorios y fuerza laboral mediante megaproyectos extractivistas, energéticos, parques industriales y otros, que generan enormes ganancias a los capitales transnacionales, además de la expansión de las ciudades cercanas

    Abstract: La tarea de elaborar una antología del pensamiento social crítico en Guatemala ha supuesto un esfuerzo en varios sentidos. En primer lugar, delimitar qué se entiende por pensamiento crítico, y luego, decidir qué período abarcar, cuáles autoras y autores incluir, y cuáles los textos pertinentes […]. Para acotar la búsqueda se comprendió como pensamiento social crítico al conjunto de ideas elaboradas desde perspectivas divergentes, a contracorriente de los discursos y las historias oficiales, que han sido el resultado de la investigación, análisis, sistematización y reflexión sobre la realidad de la sociedad guatemalteca, con el propósito de desentrañar las estructuras de poder que sostienen un orden desigual, de raíces coloniales, que niega derechos y limita el desarrollo humano de la mayoría de la población, particularmente de las mujeres, y los pueblos indígenas. En la antología que ahora se presenta, se incluye a treinta y cinco autoras y autores, mujeres y hombres, de diversas identidades, y generaciones. Algunos con una producción muy vasta y otros que inician sus reflexiones. Se trató de mostrar una polifonía de voces y perspectivas, y para efectos de una mejor comprensión se establecieron cuatro ejes que dan cuenta de las principales preocupaciones sociales, intelectuales y políticas que han predominado en las décadas de finales del siglo veinte e inicios del veintiuno: “Estado, política, sociedad y economía" (Eje 1); “Violencia política, movimientos sociales, memoria e historia" (Eje 2); “Etnicidad, relaciones interétnicas, racismo" (Eje 3); y, por último, “Cuerpos, género, feminismos, sexualidades, violencia" (Eje 4). […] Considero este texto como un aporte más en el conocimiento de la producción intelectual en Guatemala, una invitación a profundizar en el pensamiento social crítico, a identificar autorías, temas y problemáticas que ahora no fueron incorporadas. Una motivación para continuar indagando y construyendo la historia de los aportes intelectuales en el país, ampliando miradas y ejes de análisis, temporalidades y temáticas.

    Abstract: La democracia es un elemento de disputa discursiva en América Latina porque existen posiciones políticas disímiles que corresponden, por lo menos, a un par de enfoques interpretativos de carácter normativo sobre esta forma de gobierno. Una postura cuestiona la democracia liberal por sus limitaciones representativas y deriva en apelaciones a la democracia participativa como una alternativa que desdeña de las mediaciones partidistas. Una mirada opuesta reclama la vigencia plena de la democracia representativa y el Estado de derecho para establecer límites a la participación popular porque la acción directa de los movimientos sociales debilita los canales institucionales de la política. La primera interpretación es anatemizada como populista, la segunda es cuestionada por socialdemócrata o liberal

    Series Statement: America in the Nineteenth Century
    Keywords: History of the Americas ; Indigenous peoples
    Abstract: The Spanish-American War marked the emergence of the United States as an imperial power. It was when the United States first landed troops overseas and established governments of occupation in the Philippines, Cuba, and other formerly Spanish colonies. But such actions to extend U.S. sovereignty abroad, argues Katharine Bjork, had a precedent in earlier relations with Native nations at home. In Prairie Imperialists, Bjork traces the arc of American expansion by showing how the Army's conquests of what its soldiers called "Indian Country" generated a repertoire of actions and understandings that structured encounters with the racial others of America's new island territories following the War of 1898. Prairie Imperialists follows the colonial careers of three Army officers from the domestic frontier to overseas posts in Cuba and the Philippines. The men profiled-Hugh Lenox Scott, Robert Lee Bullard, and John J. Pershing-internalized ways of behaving in Indian Country that shaped their approach to later colonial appointments abroad. Scott's ethnographic knowledge and experience with Native Americans were valorized as an asset for colonial service; Bullard and Pershing, who had commanded African American troops, were regarded as particularly suited for roles in the pacification and administration of colonial peoples overseas. After returning to the mainland, these three men played prominent roles in the "Punitive Expedition" President Woodrow Wilson sent across the southern border in 1916, during which Mexico figured as the next iteration of "Indian Country." With rich biographical detail and ambitious historical scope, Prairie Imperialists makes fundamental connections between American colonialism and the racial dimensions of domestic political and social life-during peacetime and while at war. Ultimately, Bjork contends, the concept of "Indian Country" has served as the guiding force of American imperial expansion and nation building for the past two and a half centuries and endures to this day

    Abstract: La cooperación Sur-Sur puede definirse como un entramado de relaciones e intercambios cooperativos y complementarios con objetivos de desarrollo entre actores del Sur. Estas prácticas gestaron un proceso que impulsó la colaboración como estrategia para resituar a los países del Sur en el tablero internacional. Su mayor desarrollo tuvo lugar a principios del siglo XXI, al integrarse a las políticas exteriores de un conjunto de países que, en paralelo, impulsaban en la agenda política y económica internacional reformas de gobernanza global, reconfiguración de alianzas regionales y coaliciones interregionales. El actual contexto latinoamericano es un momento crucial para reflexionar sobre el futuro de aquellas acciones que habilitaron el rico y valioso entramado que da nombre a este libro. En estas páginas, el foco fue puesto en un paso previo y fundamental de revisión y balance de una década de Cooperación entre los países del sur. Es esencial revisar hoy las estrategias, tanto en el plano regional como en los ámbitos nacionales. Es fundamental conocer los avances y los desafíos a los que se han enfrentado cada uno de estos países en la tentativa de promover el desarrollo y la integración regional. Y también es necesario sostener una premisa: los países del Sur pueden y deben continuar cooperando entre sí

    Abstract: La lucha por la implementación del Acuerdo de Paz transcurre de manera simultánea en dos sentidos. Por una parte, como necesidad de superar y derrotar en forma definitiva las resistencias de sectores que liderados por las expresiones más extremistas de la derecha política buscan desconocer la realidad histórica y concreta del Acuerdo de Paz, en cuanto posibilidad de tramitar el conflicto social y d clase por la vía exclusivamente política. Pero, al mismo tiempo, por la otra, como necesidad también de una implementación integral, de construir la legitimidad de una concepción de la paz que trascienda la visión meramente pacificadora o gatopardista, es decir, que apunte a una paz que efectivamente posea los contenidos propios de la democracia verdadera y la justicia social en camino hacias las transformaciones más profundas de la sociedad colombiana. Y, por qué no decirlo, que se encauce hacia la superación definitiva del orden social vigente; aspiración que también se encontraba tanto en los orígenes como en la larga historia de la lucha guerrillera en Colombia

    Abstract: The thirteenth volume of Comunicazioni dell'Istituto Papirologico «G. Vitelli» is divided, as was the previous one, into three sections: 1. Editions and rieditions of texts; 2. Critical notes; 3. Chronique de lexicographie papyrologique de la vie matérielle. In the first section there are texts which are being published for the first time or which are subject to a revision and a new edition, both belonging to various collections. This section also includes the exhibition of an exceptional artefact from the Arab period, belonging to the Papyrological Institute "G. Vitelli"'s collection. The second section includes three contributions with careful palaeographic and linguistic observations on literary and documentary texts, and a fourth contribution offering an exhaustive summary of the publication state of an archive from the Institute's collection.

    Abstract: Les 3 et 4 octobre 2013 se sont tenues à Caen les quatrièmes journées d'étude du programme Corps, gestes et vêtements dans les mondes anciens : une lecture historique et anthropologique (ANHiMA et CRBC), animé par Jean-Baptiste Bonnard (maître de conférences en histoire grecque à l’université de Caen, ANHIMA, HISTEMÉ), Florence Gherchanoc (professeure à l’université de Paris VII, ANHIMA) et Valérie Huet (professeure à l’université de Brest, ANHIMA, CRBC). Ce programme s’est fixé pour but d’étudier les valeurs et les symboliques des gestes et attitudes attachés au corps et aux mouvements du corps, les qualifications contextuelles et spatiales de gestes corporels et du corps en mouvement, les gestes et les identités, les normes corporelles et les transgressions. La thématique portait cette fois sur les manifestations du politique : il s’agissait de voir, à partir des textes littéraires et des images, comment s’articulent corps, gestes et vêtements avec un contexte ou une situation politiques donnés. Les auteurs du présent ouvrage se sont attachés à rechercher s’il existe, dans les sociétés antiques (Assyrie, Grèce, Rome) des physionomies, des attitudes corporelles, des postures, des manières de s’habiller ou de porter un vêtement qui signalent un droit ou une prérogative politique, une appartenance ou une orientation politiques

    Abstract: Presents an in-depth historical reconstruction and a detailed ethnographic account of the Western Apache culture based on firsthand observations made over a span of nearly ten years in the field The Social Organization of the Western Apache is still one of the most comprehensive descriptions of the social life of an American Indian tribe. Grenville Goodwin knew the Western Apache better than any other ethnographer who ever lived. And he wrote about them from the conviction that his knowledge was important—not only for specialists interested in the tribes of the Southwest, but for all anthropologists concerned with the structure and operation of primitive social systems

    Abstract: A provocative analysis of market-based interventions into public problems and the consequences.Market-based interventions have been used in attempts to solve numerous public problems, from education to healthcare and from climate change to privacy. Scholars have responded persuasively through critiques of neoliberalism. In Can Markets Solve Problems? Daniel Neyland, Véra Ehrenstein, and Sveta Milyaeva propose a different route forward. There is no single entity knowable as “the market,” the authors argue. Instead, they examine in detail the devices, relations, and practices that underpin these market-based interventions. Drawing on recent work in science and technology studies (STS), each chapter focuses on a different intervention and critically explores the market sensibility around which it is organized. Trade and exchange, competition, property and ownership, and investment and return all become the focus of a thorough exploration of what it means to intervene in public problems, how problems are composed, and how solutions are continually reworked. Can Markets Solve Problems? offers the first book-length STS enquiry into markets and public problems. Weaving together rich empirical descriptions and conceptual discussions, the book provides in-depth insights into the workings of these markets, their continuous evolution, and the consequences. The result is a new avenue of critical inquiry that moves between the details of specific policies and the always-emerging, collective features of this landscape of intervention

    Abstract: Originally published in 1975. This is a history of southern political life since the New Deal and World War II, encompassing a crucial epoch: an attempted Second Reconstruction of the South. The authors focus on the electoral response to candidates and issues. The authors contend that, despite the nationalizing and homogenizing forces that eroded much of the South's distinctiveness during the postwar years, the region's historical legacy perpetuated its distinctive patterns of cultural and political life. Further, the authors contend that despite the virtual destruction of the South's four inherited institutions of political sectionalism during the years of the Second Reconstruction-disenfranchisement, malapportionment, a one-party system, and de jure racial segregation-the new southern politics maintained a deep racial division that has militated against class coalitions, especially across racial lines, and has permitted government by relatively insulated elites

    Abstract: No single element of Boston's revolutionary history is of greater consequence than the reactions of the town's merchants to changing British mercantile policies. Under John Tyler's fine lens the special business interests of powerful individuals within this group are more clearly delineated and, as a consequence, their political behavior is better understood. Through ingenious research into business ledgers and insurance records John Tyler has been able to identify specific members of this elusive group for the first time and observe their political conduct for a decade and a half prior to the American Revolution. Originally published by Northeastern University Press in 1986. With a new foreword by William M. Fowler, Jr

    Abstract: Der Totalitarismus wollte den Menschen auf ein Gattungswesen reduzieren. Hannah Arendts politische Theorie hingegen basiert auf einem Verständnis vom Menschen als Person, der sich im Handeln und Sprechen in seiner Einmaligkeit enthüllt und zusammen mit anderen eine gemeinsame Welt schafft. Barbara Bushart legt in ihrer rechtstheoretischen Untersuchung dar, wie Rechtsdogmen und -techniken die Pluralität sowohl zu realisieren helfen als auch zu zerstören wissen. Die Fokussierung auf die Interdependenz von Recht und der Verwirklichung menschlicher Potenziale ergänzt dabei die wachsende Forschung zum Arendt'schen Rechtsverständnis um eine bisher vernachlässigte Facette

    Abstract: The book provides an empirically based analysis of changes on how various political and denominational actors seek to influence the Church and state relationship, as well as how we understand the idea of the secular state. A set of case studies shows how and why changes in the coverage of the secular state and Church-state relations have followed the dynamics of media logic. By establishing a grounded theory based on media content, legal regulations and political party programs in the years 1989–2015 as well as a current survey, the author throws new light on the theory of mediatization. The book demonstrates that the disseminated idea of the secular state is largely a result of the adaptation of both political and religious representatives to a dynamically changing media logic. "The book is the first study of this kind showing the Polish perspective. It is an interesting and important source of information for those who want to trace the media picture of relations between the Polish state and the institution of the Roman Catholic Church, representing the largest religious community in Poland."

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1979. American diplomacy during Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidency has received much attention, with one notable exception-the United States' relations with Latin America. Irwin Gellman's book corrects this past neglect through a perceptive analysis of FDR's "Good Neighbor" efforts in Latin America. Based on a fresh examination of State Department records and extensive manuscript sources (including an unprecedented use of Nelson Rockefeller's oral history archives), the book points out the complexities of Good Neighbor diplomacy and its intimate relationship to Roosevelt's global strategies. As background to his discussions of FDR's policies, Gellman looks first at how Latin American affairs were handled during the administrations of Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover, the three Republicans who preceded Roosevelt in office. Good Neighbor diplomacy, Gellman shows, was not a carryover from these administrations; it bore the distinctive mark of FDR's own making. He then describes how Roosevelt's policy of nonintervention worked, particularly how military force was superseded by more subtle diplomatic maneuverings. Turning to a discussion of economic relations with Latin America, Gellman focuses on how the United States' own situation-cut off from international trade by the Depression-encouraged regional expansion. And, finally, he looks at how Roosevelt parlayed the threat of war in Europe and the specter of Nazi penetration in the Americas to further solidify a hemispheric stand. Gellman's account vividly demonstrates that Good Neighbor diplomacy was as much the product of personality as it was of policy. In particular, it emerged out of the rivalries and alliances among three men: Roosevelt; his Secretary of State, Cordell Hull; and Assistant Secretary of State, Sumner Welles. Gellman (the first to have access to FBI files on Welles) characterizes FDR as an astute politician who saw an opportunity to use pan-Americanism to restore America to world prominence-yet could not handle the personality conflicts among those in his own ranks. Gellman shows how tenuous a government policy can be when so much of it depends on personal control and influence

    Abstract: Au xixe siècle, des innovations majeures révolutionnent la conservation des aliments ; on invente des matériaux d'emballage et des additifs alimentaires de synthèse. Ces progrès induisent toutefois de nouvelles menaces sur l'alimentation, telles que des intoxications par des substances nouvelles, ou des fraudes avérées pour tromper le consommateur. Dans les pays industrialisés, les pouvoirs publics et scientifiques engagent alors une lutte commune qui débouche, à l'issue d'un long processus, sur une régulation et sur la création, après 1945, d'organismes supranationaux comme la FAO. À la croisée des cultures de l'alimentation el de la toxicologie, ce livre nous parle de la sécurité alimentaire au travers de nombreux cas emblématiques et fascinants tels que l'arrivée progressive des colorants, le développement de l'usage de la cellophane, ou encore I'utilisation de l'aluminium dans la levure chimique qui fut la plus longue controverse alimentaire de l'histoire des États-Unis ! Le progrès scientifique coexiste-t-il avec l'impuissance de la science dans un monde toxique ? Quelle peut être à chaque époque la capacité des États à gouverner les technosciences ? Quelles ont été les origines des demandes de régulation au sein de chaque société ? Florence Hachez-Leroy livre une réflexion importante sur un sujet d'une actualité brûlante

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: George Ade, one of the most beloved writers of his day, carried on a lively correspondence with the most colorful of great and near-great. George M. Cohan, William Howard Taft, Theodore Roosevelt, John T. McCutcheon, James Whitcomb Riley, Finley Peter Dunne, Hamlin Garland all received letters from the Hoosier humorist. Ade's keen observation, compact and straight-forward style, and understated humor mark his correspondence as well as his immensely popular newspaper columns, books, and plays. As Paul Fatout writes in his foreword: "The charm of George Ade lies in his good-natured contemplation of our species, which delineates, not with malice or with condescension, but with the gusty enjoyment of a spectator entertained by a continuous variety show." Ade traveled the world over many times, but always returned to the home he never really left-Indiana. His companions and correspondents included presidents, senators, Hollywood moguls, and Broadway stars, but his first allegiance was to the farmlands and small towns of mid-America. From Hazelden Farm, near Brook, he kept in close touch with politicians from the precincts to the governor's mansion. He wrote to educators, editors, and executives, and took an active part in the life and growth of his alma mater, Purdue University. Characteristically, the man who succeeded as a writer by setting down familiar situations sent some of his most interesting letters to ordinary citizens all over the state. Ade's friendships were so diversified that his correspondence forms a patchwork of popular history, literature, politics, and entertainment. His interchange of ideas about people and events shaping the twentieth century as well as his own life will provide insights for students of varied aspects of American culture. This volume presents 182 of the most interesting and informative letters from the thousands of extant pieces of his correspondence in scores of collections scattered throughout the United States. The letters are arranged chronologically annotated with explanatory material and with sources. A foreword, introduction and Ade's biography are included. Photographs, sketches, handwriting samples, and other illustrations which evoke the man and his times are interspersed with the text

    Abstract: Faire société, c'est l'ambition des acteurs et des actrices au cœur de cet ouvrage. Par leur engagement philanthropique, ils tissent un lien avec les classes populaires et cherchent à transformer la société. Leurs origines sont plus variées que ne le laissent penser les recherches qui les présentent souvent comme issus des hautes sphères. Cette diversité apparaît aussi dans les motivations à l'origine de l'engagement charitable. Voie d'accès aux débats publics pour les femmes et les étrangers privés de droits politiques, la philanthropie attire également les élites conservatrices genevoises qui ont perdu la mainmise sur l'État à la suite de la Révolution de 1846, ainsi que les représentants du nouveau pouvoir. Ce livre n'examine pas seulement le discours des philanthropes, il analyse également leurs pratiques sur le terrain et leurs stratégies qui visent à inculquer aux classes populaires des valeurs qui leur sont chères − l'épargne, la responsabilité individuelle, l'ardeur au travail ou la répartition genrée des rôles. En combinant méthodes quantitatives et qualitatives, cet ouvrage restitue la philanthropie genevoise dans sa complexité. Saisie dans sa globalité, à l'échelle d'une ville en pleine mutation, l'action philanthropique se révèle un excellent observatoire de la société, et ce d'autant plus que les Genevois sont très actifs dans les réseaux réformateurs transnationaux. Alors que la philanthropie connaît de nos jours un regain d'intérêt marqué, ce livre offre des clés pour comprendre les ambiguïtés des discours et des pratiques liés à ce phénomène

    Abstract: A bustling commercial center and favorite tourist attraction on Boston's historic waterfront, Quincy Market, the popular name for Faneuil Hall Marketplace, draws throngs of visitors to the magnificent granite buildings and cobblestone concourses that house the area's specialty shops, restaurants, boutiques, pushcarts, and food stalls. Yet few are aware of the history of this legendary public place and its importance in the history of Boston and the nation. In this elegantly written and lavishly illustrated work, John Quincy, Jr., tells the absorbing story of the Market's unique evolution over the centuries. Beginning with John Winthrop's landing at the Great Cove on the Shawmut Peninsula in 1630, Quincy weaves together a remarkable tapestry of the district's rise, fall, and rebirth.

    Abstract: From the food uprisings in the early 1700s to the notorious anti-busing riots in the mid-1970s, incidents of communal social violence have played a significant role in Boston's history. This vivid portrait of an ever-changing community over time provides a revealing glimpse into peoples' anger, aspirations, and frustrations. It sheds new light on why groups are provoked to take unlawful action in response to unjust conditions, and it opens a fresh vista on the social history of Boston. Originally published by Northeastern University Press in 2001. With a new foreword by Gordana Rabrenovic

    Keywords: History
    Abstract: Les guerres de Religion, tout comme la période de la Fronde, ont suscité de nombreux témoignages chez leurs contemporains que la violence des événements ne pouvait laisser indifférents. Et ce, d'autant plus que les charges que certains d'entre eux exerçaient les mettaient au premier plan de l'action politique. Leurs Mémoires et leurs correspondances montrent que la scène politique sollicite leur intervention d'une part, et d'autre part que cette intervention, relatée dans leurs récits rétrospectifs, façonne en retour l'image de la personne qu'ils lègueront à la postérité. Par ailleurs, la littérature politique et satirique participe de la mythification ou de l'exécration d'un personnage emblématique, souvent celui du héros (Coligny, sous la plume de Hotman) ou du tyran (Henri III, Concini ou Mazarin). On observera le processus de construction traité par la personne elle-même, homme ou femme, soucieuse de l'inscription de son image dans l'histoire ou son contraire, la volonté de destruction, visant à dénoncer et à condamner une politique abusive. Ce volume est le fruit du colloque sur la construction de la personne dans le fait historique (XVIe-XVIIe siècles) qui s'est tenu les 25 et 26 mai 2016 sous les auspices de l'IMéRA, Institut d'études avancées, Aix-Marseille Université

    Abstract: Débutée en janvier 1814, la campagne de France conduit, dès la fin du mois de mars, les troupes impériales russes alors à la tête des armées alliées victorieuses, à entrer dans Paris, devant une population médusée et apeurée. Pour la première fois de son histoire, Paris est occupé et le restera durant six semaines. Si la campagne de France a produit une riche historiographie sur le plan militaire, les études ayant trait à l'occupation de 1814 ont été plus éparses. Archives militaires, diplomatiques, sources publiques et privées à l'appui, les meilleurs spécialistes du sujet dressent dans cet ouvrage un tableau sociétal, culturel et mémoriel de cette occupation. Ils entendent notamment en saisir les causes et les modalités, mais aussi, à travers les perceptions et les représentations nées de la confrontation franco-russe dans les imaginaires politique, littéraire et artistique, mettre en avant la mémoire collective qu'elle a suscitée en France comme en Russie

From the very beginning, the young playwright has forged himself into a public figure in every sense of the word in and through the press. His career path is that of a volunteer in the media space, where he occupies almost every position: drama critic, columnist, serialist, historian of the contemporary, war correspondent, inexhaustible talker. Strong convictions drive this writing in perpetual motion: Dumas defends the democratic ideal of an authentically popular literature, engaged in the struggles of the present, and intensely interactive

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1968. Far from being an isolated outburst of community insanity or hysteria, the Massachusetts witchcraft trials were an accurate reflection of the scientific ethos of the seventeenth century. Witches were seldom hanged without supporting medical evidence. Professor Fox clarifies this use of scientific knowledge by examining the Scientific Revolution's impact on the witchcraft trials. He suggests that much of the scientific ineptitude and lack of sophistication that characterized the witchcraft cases is still present in our modern system of justice. In the historical context of seventeenth-century witch hunts and in an effort to stimulate those who must design and operate a just jurisprudence today, Fox asks what the proper legal role of medical science-especially psychiatry-should be in any society. The legal system of seventeenth-century Massachusetts was weakened by an uncritical reliance on scientific judgments, and the scientific assumptions upon which the colonial conception of witchcraft was based reinforced these doubtful judgments. Fox explores these assumptions, discusses the actual participation of scientists in the investigations, and indicates the importance of scientific attitudes in the trials. Disease theory, psychopathology, and autopsy procedures, he finds, all had their place in the identification of witches. The book presents a unique multidisciplinary investigation into the place of science in the life of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the seventeenth century. There, as in twentieth-century America, citizens were confronted with the necessity of accommodating both the rules of law and the facts of science to their system of justice

    Abstract: En este libro se plantean dos tipos de problemas históricos. En primer término, fue notorio desde los primeros años de la década de 1990 que la periodización con que se explicaba el pasado dejaba muchos vacíos. Desde la ausencia de una fecha de fundación y otra de término de la Transición, hasta si la crisis de la democracia comenzó antes o durante el gobierno de Salvador Allende. Por ello se busca poner en cuestión la cronología de la segunda mitad del siglo XX en Chile, relevando los problemas e intentando resolverlos. En segundo término, está el problema de la desaparición de los protagonistas directos, lo que agrava el desconocimiento sobre su época. La ineficacia de las explicaciones normativas se ve acentuada, pues la autoridad que la sostenía era la de la experiencia de los protagonistas más notorios de la historia reciente. Este libro recoge seis textos previamente publicados en la revista Izquierdas, incorpora también la traducción inédita de un texto del historiador uruguayo Aldo Marchesi; y recopila una serie de columnas publicadas a propósito del cierre de la muestra "Hijos de la Libertad" del Museo Histórico Nacional en mayo de 2018. Estos escritos y estas voces coinciden aquí como expresión de la necesidad de reapropiarnos del pasado reciente de Chile y la región del cono sur, con investigaciones y reflexiones que diluyan el efecto de las lecturas normativas con las que se ha domesticado ese período

    Abstract: Ce volume intitulé Mind Control est consacré aux relations entre les expérimentations artistiques et les techniques de conditionnement psychologique au cours de la période contemporaine (XIXe-XXIe siècles). Il analyse la culture visuelle d'œuvres d'art qui jouent sur la reprise, le contre-pied, le déplacement voire l'instrumentalisation de divers protocoles mis en place dans les laboratoires de psychologie. Entre suggestion et hypnose, test comportemental et images subliminales, parasitage et lavage de cerveau, ce numéro croise des objets, des discours et des dispositifs d'influence très variés, de l'art de la publicité au cinéma expérimental, du « design pédagogique » à la vidéo, de la « musique d'ameublement » à la performance, jusqu'aux réseaux sociaux les plus récents, pour interroger les stratégies de persuasion et de contrôle dans nos sociétés contemporaines et le rôle des pratiques artistiques dans leur mise à distance ou leur détournement critique. Cet ouvrage, préparé sous la direction de Pascal Rousseau, est le onzième volume de la collection Histo.Art, présentant les travaux de l'École doctorale Histoire de l'art de l'université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne

    Abstract: Longtemps délaissée comme source primaire des études historiques en Espagne, la presse est devenue, depuis les travaux pionniers d'Alberto Gil Novales sur les Sociedades patrióticas (1820-1823) une source incontournable pour nombre de chercheurs. À côté des rubriques consacrées aux seules informations et des articles de fond, qui intéressent essentiellement l'histoire événementielle et celle des mentalités, les diverses annonces qu'accueillent généralement les périodiques permettent des études socio-économiques particulièrement utiles en ce qui concerne le XVIIIe siècle. María José Alonso Seoane a déjà exploité ce genre de sources pour la période 1808-1819 à partir de la Gaceta de Madrid et du Diario de Madrid. Pour notre part, nous attachant au règne de Charles IV (1789-1808) et utilisant les annonces de librairie publiées dans l'ensemble des périodiques madrilènes de cette période, nous entendons non pas simplement nous contenter de produire les listes des ouvrages imprimés et annoncés dans les différents périodiques mais, à partir de celles-ci, de dresser un état des lieux de la production imprimée à la fin du XVIIIe siècle, d'étudier les réseaux de diffusion des ouvrages et les stratégies mises en place par les auteurs et les éditeurs avant de constater les succès et échecs de leurs entreprises. Et ce, afin d'apporter une contribution utile à l'étude du livre et permettre de mieux appréhender ce qui fut le premier vecteur de diffusion des Lumières en Espagne

    Abstract: L'Ecole d'études sociales de Genève - l'une des premières de Suisse - voit le jour en 1918 dans un contexte mouvementé et un pays divisé. Qu'est-il advenu de cette institution, actuellement Haute école de travail social, durant son siècle d'existence ?Dans un texte riche de détails, Didier Cattin aborde des questions primordiales pour la vie sociale de notre région et au-delà : l'influence de la bourgeoisie protestante et du mouvement féministe dans la mise en oeuvre d'une nouvelle formation professionnalisante, proposée d'abord aux seules femmes ; la diversification et la mue de l'offre en fonction de l'évolution de la réalité sociale et des sciences humaines (sociologie, psychologie, économie politique, etc.) ; l'évolution des structures de l'école (Centre de recherches sociales, Centre de formation continue, bibliothèque, etc.) ; l'évolution des relations institutionnelles entre une école professionnelle, la demande sociale (population, employeurs), l'Université et l'Etat ; l'évolution des techniques de gestion de l'institution (autogestion, management de la qualité, etc.) ; les tensions inhérentes aux ambitions du travail social (contrôle social, cohésion sociale, transformation sociale, etc.).Ce récit séculaire s'attache à faire ressortir les phases décisives et les moments clés qui ont fait cet établissement ainsi que les enjeux auxquels l'école a dû faire face. A travers son histoire, c'est l'histoire de la formation, de l'action et de la politique sociales qui émerge

    Abstract: People with Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) have a particular sensory sensitivity, causing their surrounding environment to affect the quality of life significantly. It is called a "spectrum", because there is a great variety of behaviours making it difficult to define universal and design criteria. These behaviours do however require a new dynamic and flexible approach, enabling the customization of the feedback to the project. Starting from the study of the specific needs of users, the environmental conditions and the design approaches, this research aims at providing innovative tools to support the design of "therapeutic" environments which could reduce the discomfort and stress related to the person's enablement, in order to include them in the social community within an integrated life project, concerning "home", applied living spaces (school, work, day centres...) and emergency conditions with respect to treatments

    Abstract: Originally published in 1986. Political machines, and the bosses who ran them, are largely a relic of the nineteenth century. A prominent feature in nineteenth-century urban politics, political machines mobilized urban voters by providing services in exchange for voters' support of a party or candidate. Allswang examines four machines and five urban bosses over the course of a century. He argues that efforts to extract a meaningful general theory from the American experience of political machines are difficult given the particularity of each city's history. A city's composition largely determined the character of its political machines. Furthermore, while political machines are often regarded as nondemocratic and corrupt, Allswang discusses the strengths of the urban machine approach-chief among those being its ability to organize voters around specific issues

    Abstract: Originally published in 1958. Johnson tells the story of the Red River Campaign, which took place in Louisiana and Arkansas in the spring of 1864. In response to the demands of Union Free-Soil interests in Texas, and the need of New England textile manufacturers for cotton, an expedition was undertaken to open the way to Texas. General Nathaniel Banks conducted a combined military and naval expedition up the Red River in a campaign that lasted only from March 23 to May 20, 1864, but was one of the most destructive of the Civil War. The campaign ended in Banks's defeat at the Battle of Sabine Crossroads. This book illustrates how military operations during the Civil War were often intimately interwoven with political, economic, and ideological factors, which frequently determined the time and place of a Union offensive. The author describes the desires and opinions of the public, the press, and Lincoln's administration regarding an invasion of Texas, as well as the motivation of the officers themselves, such as Banks's aspiration for the 1864 presidential nomination. Johnson relates vividly the various battles of the expedition and the problems posed by mustering undisciplined troops, by having to procure supplies in poor country with insufficient supply lines, and by contending with bad weather and rough terrain

Also evaluated are the effects of such emotional and political issues such as Nazism and Fascism upon the allegiances of Germans and Italians; the rift in the ethnic community caused by the communist scare; and the influence of such figures such as Franklin D. Roosevelt, Father Charles Coughlin, and Fiorello La Guardia

    Abstract: Originally published in 1965. The Supreme Court's momentous school desegregation decision of 1954 was a postmortem victory for Albion Tourgée. Just fifty-eight years earlier this once-famous carpetbagger's attack on segregation was crushed in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson. His legal defeat in 1896 typified his frustrated but prophetic career. Tourgée was an idealistic Union veteran who ventured south in 1865. As an advocate of civil rights, political equality, free schools, and penal reform, he was elected to North Carolina's Constitutional Convention of 1868. Olsen records both the fierce struggles and the impressive accomplishments that filled Tourgée's fourteen years in the South. With the collapse of the Southern experiment, Tourgée was inspired to turn to fiction to express his convictions. A Fool's Errand by One of the Fools and Bricks without Straw were classics of their day, providing absorbing accounts and defenses of radical Reconstruction. In 1879 Tourgée went north, where he renewed and extended his crusade for Negro equality by writing, lecturing, and lobbying. For many years he was the most militant and persistent advocate of racial equality in the nation. He was also a vigorous critic of the industrial age, demanding the utilization of federal power in behalf of equality, democracy, and economic justice

    Abstract: Originally published in 1978. When compared with socialist and communist systems in other nations, the impact of radicalism on American society seems almost nonexistent. David DeLeon challenges this position, however, by presenting a historical and theoretical perspective for understanding the scope and significance of dissent in America. From Anne Hutchinson in colonial New England to the New Left of the 1960s, DeLeon underscores a tradition of radical protest that has endured in American history-a tradition of native anarchism that is fundamentally different from the radicalism of Europe, the Soviet Union, or nations of the Third World. DeLeon shows that a profound resistance to authority lies at the very heart of the American value system.The first part of the book examines how Protestant belief, capitalism, and even the American landscape itself contributed to the unique character of American dissent. DeLeon then looks at the actions and ideologies of all major forms of American radicalism, both individualists and communitarians, from laissez-faire liberals to anarcho-capitalists, from advocates of community control to syndicalists. In the book's final part, DeLeon argues against measuring the American experience by the standards of communism and other political systems. Instead he contends that American culture is far more radical than that of any socialist state and the implications of American radicalism are far more revolutionary than forms of Marxism-Leninism

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Otiginally published in 1975. At the time that Louis Galambos published The Public Image of Big Business in America in 1975, America had matured into a bureaucratic state. The expression of the military-industrial complex and big business grew so pervasive that the postwar United States was defined in large part by its citizens' participation in large-scale organizational structures. Noticing this development, Galambos maintains that the "single most significant phenomenon in modern American history is the emergence of giant, complex organizations." Today, bureaucratic organizations influence the day-to-day lives of most Americans-they gather taxes, regulate businesses, provide services, administer welfare, provide education, and on and on. These organizations are defined by their hierarchical structure in which the power of decision-making is allotted according to abstract rules that create impersonal scenarios. Bureaucracies have developed as a result of technological changes in the second half of the nineteenth century. Based on the premise that these structures had a stronger influence on modern America than any other single phenomenon, this book explores the public's response to the growth of the power and influence of bureaucracy from the years 1880 through 1930. What results is an examination of the social perception of bureaucracy and the development of bureaucratic culture

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Originally published in 1994. In this pathbreaking book Alan Tully offers an unprecedented comparative study of colonial political life and a rethinking of the foundations of American political culture. Tully chooses for his comparison the two colonies that arguably had the most profound impact on American political history-New York and Pennsylvania, the rich and varied colonies at the geographical and ideological center of British colonial America.Fundamental to the book is Tully's argument that out of Anglo-American influences and the cumulative character of each colonial experience, New York and Pennsylvania developed their own distinctive but complementary characteristics. In making this case Tully enters-from a new perspective-the prominent argument between the "classical republican" and "liberal" views of early American public thought. He contends that the radical Whig element of classical republicanism was far less influential than historians have believed and that the political experience of New York and Pennsylvania led to their role as innovators of liberal political concepts and discourse. In a conclusion that pursues his insights into the revolutionary and early republican years, Tully underlines a paradox in American political development: not only were the pathbreaking liberal politicians of New York and Pennsylvania the least inclined towards revolutionary fervor, but their political language and concepts-integral to an emerging liberal democratic order-were rooted in oligarchical political practice."A momentous contribution to the burgeoning literature on the middle Atlantic region, and to the vexed question of whether it constitutes a coherent cultural configuration. Tully argues persuasively that it does, and his arguments will have to be reckoned with like few that have gone before, even as he develops an array of differences between the two colonies more subtle and penetrating than any of his predecessors has ever put forth."-Michael Zuckerman, University of Pennsylvania

    Abstract: This work provides an in-depth description of the juridical framework in which the Italian book trade operated during the Renaissance. It is a multi-authored work that discusses issues related to intellectual, literary and artistic proto-property by taking into account some of the main urban centers of pre-unitary Italy such as Venice, Milan and Rome. It investigates the different legal systems put in place by the states and the dynamics that generated around them. The volume frames the topic at task within the general discourse on technologic innovation and state patronage in economic history hence exploring patenting systems (e.g., Florence and Venice) along with book privilege systems (e.g., Milan and Venice). In so doing it also investigates instances of conflicting interests occuring between the political and the economic sphere (e.g., Rome and Venice)

    Series Statement: Une plus Grande Guerre
    Keywords: History
    Abstract: Dans la matinée du 26 juin 1917, alors que les premiers contingents du corps expéditionnaire américain débarquent à Saint-Nazaire, la Première Guerre mondiale entre dans une dimension nouvelle. Avec l'arrivée de ceux que l'on nomme les Doughboys, le conflit achève de se globaliser, exigeant toujours plus de chacun des belligérants. Cette réalité, c'est celle d'une guerre que l'on dit « totale » et c'est précisément ce que souhaite interroger cet ouvrage. En examinant finement, à l'échelle de la région de Saint-Nazaire, les conséquences de la présence américaine entre 1917 et 1919, Erwan Le Gall plonge aux sources de l'idée de guerre « totale », rappelant que celle-ci est moins une vérité observée qu'un appel vers un absolu pour une mobilisation toujours plus complète de la sphère civile au service de l'armée. Or des discours aux actes, il y a parfois un gouffre. C'est ainsi que certains acteurs paraissent s'accommoder fort bien du conflit, à condition que celui-ci ne nuise pas à leurs intérêts propres. Se font alors jour des forces qu'il convient d'analyser sous l'angle d'une certaine « détotalisation » de la guerre en cours

    Abstract: L'humanitaire envahit les écrans, les médias et nos vies. Il passe pour l'une des démarches et des valeurs les plus prisées de notre temps. Mais que recouvre exactement ce phénomène ? L'histoire du Comité international de la Croix-Rouge (CICR), la plus ancienne des organisations internationales consacrées à l'aide aux victimes, donne des réponses éclairantes à ces questions. À travers le récit de quatre moments-clés de cette institution vieille de plus de 150 ans, Irène Herrmann nous montre que l'engouement dont il jouit est récent. L'idéal de compassion sur lequel il repose n'entend pas lutter contre les injustices mais est indissociable du nationalisme comme du colonialisme. De fait, s'il comprend une part indéniable de dévouement, il n'est pas totalement désintéressé. Ainsi, en retraçant le parcours du CICR, l'auteure met-elle en lumière des réalités contre-intuitives voire carrément dérangeantes

    Abstract: Dès la deuxième moitié du xixe siècle, dans un contexte d'intense ségrégation raciale aux États-Unis, des Africains-Américains écrivent l'histoire occultée de leur communauté pour l'inscrire au cœur du récit national et, au-delà, pour révéler la contribution de la diaspora noire à l'histoire mondiale. Cette histoire en marge questionne la discipline historique elle-même et affirme la nécessité d'écrire une histoire-monde. Mais comment écrire une véritable histoire globale? Ce livre entend démontrer qu'il faut non seulement donner droit de cité à celles et ceux qui ont trop souvent été exclus du récit historique ou ont été relégués à ses marges, mais aussi concevoir la marge (géographique, sociale, économique) comme un centre d'innovation épistémologique et politique, un lieu paradoxalement privilégié pour (re)penser et (ré)écrire l'histoire. Depuis plus d'un siècle à travers le monde, des historiens et des historiennes placent la périphérie au centre et, par là même, déprovincialisent l'histoire. Ce sont ces travaux qui, faisant l'histoire des marges (sexuelles-genrées, impériales-coloniales, scientifiques-disciplinaires...), participent à l'écriture d'une histoire globale

    Abstract: Undoing Slavery: American Abolitionism in Transnational Perspective (1776-1865) is a collection of seven essays by leading and emerging scholars of abolition in France. Contributors to the volume situate American abolitionism in a transnational framework, pointing out how slaves running away to Canada, free African Americans emigrating to Haiti and activists meeting in a Paris salon all influenced the fate of slavery in the United States. In the wake of recent historiographical trends, they extend not only the geography but also the chronology of abolitionism, attending to its development and evolutions over the longue durée. Special emphasis is also placed on the varied print culture of abolition, from antislavery novels, newspapers, gift books and almanacs to black-authored pamphlets and printed orations on the abolition of the slave trade. Undoing Slavery is prefaced by Manisha Sinha, author of the award-winning The Slave's Cause: A History of Abolition

    Abstract: Pendant la période française (1830-1962), les Juifs d'Algérie ont tout d'abord été soumis à un antijudaïsme qui prit la forme d'une forte hostilité de la part de nombreux Européens envers la personne des Juifs, puis à un antisémitisme fondé sur la haine de ces Juifs en tant que groupe ethnique ou racial. Antijudaïsme et antisémitisme ont donné naissance à des comportements, des mises à l'écart, des campagnes d'opinion agressives. Cette animosité éclata en crises violentes, à la fin du XIXe siècle et dans l'entre-deux-guerres, avec des manifestations, des émeutes, des »  mesures antijuives  », prises par les «  conseils municipaux antijuifs  », soutenus par des «  députés anijuifs  ». En dehors des moments de crise ouverte où la population descendait dans la rue, les relations interpersonnelles indiquaient la persistance de l'antisémitisme dans la population. Après avoir décrit les grandes périodes de cette «  idéologie de masse  » selon l'auteur, cet ouvrage détaille l'implication de la population européenne et musulmane dans cet antisémitisme et les conséquences qui en résultèrent pour les Juifs. Enfin, l'accent est mis sur ce qui explique la prégnance de l 'antisémitisme en Algérie  : ses fondements idéologiques et son appareil, son expression dans l'espace public - occupation de la rue et manifestations, fêtes, langue spécifique, journaux et caricatures - lui ayant permis de s'imposer dans l'espace public tant auprès de ses fidèles que de ses détracteurs

    Abstract: Connaît-on vraiment la manière dont notre modernité a fait l'expérience de son milieu, la manière dont elle l'a pensé comme problème politique, scientifique et philosophique ? L'histoire de la question environnementale, souvent élaborée à partir de la tradition darwinienne et de l'écologie politique, semble en effet négliger toute une tradition réflexive sur les milieux de vie, pourtant centrale pour les sciences sociales naissantes dès la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle. En poursuivant les travaux de Georges Canguilhem et de Michel Foucault, en explorant notamment cette science des milieux que le médecin Bertillon nommait « mésologie » dans les années 1860, cet ouvrage dresse l'histoire d'une rationalité « mésopolitique » : un ensemble de connaissances et de techniques qui visent à altérer, améliorer ou transformer les humains par l'aménagement de leur milieu de vie. Au croisement de plusieurs domaines de savoir (géographie, histoire naturelle, médecine, biologie lamarckienne, sociologie comtienne et durkheimienne) et de pratiques de gouvernement (urbanisme, criminologie), on assiste ainsi à l'émergence du « milieu » dans une problématisation à la fois scientifique et politique. Il en découle une histoire alternative et critique de la question environnementale, de cette « mésopolitique » qui pose aujourd'hui encore le problème de l'autonomie des populations gouvernées et des milieux dégradés

    Abstract: En explorant cinémas et boutiques, cimetières, rues et places publiques, c'est à une autre histoire de la socialisation politique au Maghreb qu'invitent les vingt-huit disciples et amis réunis dans ce livre pour rendre un hommage collectif à Omar Carlier. Historien de l'Algérie et homme de terrain, Omar Carlier a profondément renouvelé l'approche du politique en Afrique du Nord : venus d'Algérie, de France et d'ailleurs, ces vingt-huit historiens enquêtent, suivant les chemins qu'il a défrichés, sur les lieux, les événements et les objets grâce auxquels il a éclairé d'un jour nouveau notre compréhension de la région et des enjeux politiques, sociaux et culturels qui l'animent. Ces études offrent ainsi de nouvelles pistes pour comprendre la guerre d'indépendance algérienne, revenant sur les origines du Front de libération nationale, sur les mouvements et engagements militants, à Alger comme en métropole, et sur les chants et les festivités à l'heure de l'indépendance. Car, dans ce livre, l'Algérie est saisie dans son ensemble : à l'échelle du Maghreb comme au sein du monde ottoman, parmi les empires coloniaux et dans la période de l'après-indépendance - quand l'histoire coloniale pèse, encore et toujours
