Based on semi-directed interviews with 50 urban and peri-urban women farmers from marginalized areas (favelas, assentamentos, terreiros, and quilombola and indigenous communities) in the states of Ceará and Pernambuco, the author focuses on the social dynamics which allow these women to break with stigmatization and invisibility, on the one hand, and to become a social movement, in line with Touraines' three principles (identity, opposition and historicity) that must coexist in any social movement, on the other hand. Her analysis reveals that the militant actions of these women farmers nourish collaborative networks that go beyond land rights, thus contributing to individual and relational empowerment articulated around the Social and Solidarity Economy Project as a way to end the various forms of domination and cross oppression, an unfinished endeavor today jeopardized by the government of Bolsonaro.

This paper focuses on the relation between translation and identity through the case of translators from Modern Hebrew literature into French. The conditions of acquisition of linguistic skills and the paths that lead to the translational practice are analysed on the basis of a study of the social properties and trajectories of the translators, which reveals the population's double historical process of specialization and of femininization. The way translators represent their activity to themselves, as expressed during in-depth interviews, is then placed in the context of the translators' trajectories and habitus, following Daniel Simeoni's suggestion. The question of translation's role in the construction of individual and collective identity is thereby raised.

This article explores the different ways in which territory has historically been perceived, conceived and practiced through the experience and growth of mobility. Since the 1920s, automobility has been seen as a major factor by the various players of the tourism industry and in the creation of touristic regions. Building on an iconographic and discursive analysis of tourist guides and travel accounts, this article compares the experience of two provinces, Quebec and Ontario, and shows how two territories with similar bio-geo-physical characteristics developed different tourist representations based on cultural factors.

SummaryThe Kalderash Gypsy /Roma, itinerant life style kraftsmen and traders, work traditionally out of the labor market in Romania. The globalization gives them the opportunity to become « managers » in the aluminium recuperation business. The former complementary masculine and feminine work is replaced by the model of ‘man the breadwinner/woman the housekeeper'. This patriarcal evolution is connected to new ethnic boundary issues more than to the capitalist challenge (women support of productive force). In the light of this ethnographical aspects, the article is a critical view of the feminist theories of sexual division of labour and of patriarchy.

The indigenous women's movement in Mexico emerges from the debates around self-determination during the 90s. This movement is constituted by the elaboration of a new discourse, which integrates women's rights with indigenous rights of autonomy. The author exposes the mobilization's trajectory of indigenous women and the constitution of a specific discourse characterized by the re-appropriation of autonomous demands from a gender perspective. She analyzes how this discourse makes possible the emergence of an indigenous women's movement and how it represents an alternative to the dichotomy between women's rights and peoples collective rights, seen as incompatible by the actors involved in the debate.

ABSTRACTThe author focuses on the subject of the family in its contemporary transformations, and looks at how these changes are related to a societal paradigm when one uses a process of reconstruction based on empirical research (rather than a more or less deductive application of a given metasociological model). Two authors typifying two seemingly irreconcilable positions serve as totemic figures for two clans: François de Singly for those who observe greater emancipation and autonomy, and Irène Théry for those who see in these changes a dangerous process of deinstitutionalization.

AbstractArt as cultural capital is central to the work of sociologists such as Pierre Bourdieu, and this concept is germane to the analysis of the art museum in contemporary society. Unlike educational attainment, taste in art is considered an individual matter with little social importance. I argue against this on the basis of Bourdieu's and Darbel's study of art museums publics; compare their findings with more recent research in Europe and the United States; and question whether the assertion of the relation of taste to social mobility has been proven. The art museum may become more of a leveler than a barrier to equality, but as long as education and occupational inequality exist, this remains a tenuous project.

SummaryAfter the second world war, economic progress in Sâo Paulo favored not only a number of initiatives in art patronage, but the creation of a market for painting as well. Concentration of income and greater access to secondary and higher education for boys and girls from the bourgeoisie and the middle class brought changes to the, conditions for recruitment as well as to the career profiles of painters, art dealers and art critics. Using the concept of field as defined by Pierre Bourdieu, this paper examines the competitive material and symbolic interests and unveils the ambiguities present in the ideology of 'free art'.

This study examines the linguistic integration of immigrant students in Morocco along with the support measures to overcome the challenges they face. The research is based on interviews with six parents of students from sub-Saharan Africa, aiming to explore their family environment, their children’s experiences at school, and gather their opinions. The results highlight that current personal and objective conditions hinder genuine integration. The family environment does not foster integration, as local and official languages play only a minor role in the job market, where a preference is given to French. Moreover, Morocco is often perceived by these immigrants as a transitional step toward Europe.
