Au cours des dernières années, l’impérieuse nécessité de remédier à l’impact négatif du changement climatique sur l’environnement et la société humaine a conduit à la mise en œuvre de nombreuses mesures visant à réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) dans le secteur des transports. Parmi les politiques et stratégies mondiales visant à freiner les émissions de GES liées aux transports, l’adoption de véhicules électriques (VE) est devenue la politique publique de choix pour réduire ces émissions. La transition vers les VE se justifie plus particulièrement dans les régions dotées d’un secteur de l’électricité décarbonée et de ressources naturelles nécessaires à la production de véhicules électriques. Les preuves étayant de telles affirmations restent incertaines et exigent une investigation critique quant à la …

Twenty-three years after the September 11, 2001 attacks, anthropological analysis remains crucial to understanding the complex dynamics of terrorism and violence. Anthropology, as a discipline dedicated to studying humanity, allows us to understand that violence is not an isolated phenomenon, but an oft-instrumentalized tool to control societies and shape power relations. Although the events of September 11 are frequently associated with religious extremism, it is important to highlight that terrorism is a multi-faceted phenomenon, fuelled by a variety of ideological, cultural and social factors. One striking characteristic of contemporary terrorism is the dehumanization of victims, often reduced to abstractions, such as “human losses” or “number of dead.” Concurrently, those responsible for the violence are sometimes portrayed as “monsters,” a reciprocal mechanism of dehumanization. This process prevents the true recognition of individual suffering, while hindering a deeper reflection on the social, political and economic reasons for violence. Anthropology provides valuable insight into these mechanisms and paves the way to more effectively preventing future violence. The current interconnected generation plays a key role in transforming these perceptions by rejecting—or not—violent responses in favour of solutions that are more inclusive, supportive, and adapted to local realities.

In North Cameroon, the French colonial administration adapted its policy of maintaining colonial order to pre-colonial, geographical and anthropological realities. This adaptation resulted in the creation of the goumiers corps, responsible for territorial surveillance and colonial intelligence, exclusively in this region of the country. Initially recruited by the guards in the service of the region's great Muslim chiefs, the goumiers were at the heart of the relations of power and collaboration between the colonial administration and the traditional authorities. The evolution of their mission and the professionalization of their policing practices also reflect the tensions that ran through the relationship between the administration and the traditional powers. As intermediaries between the colonial power and the local police, the goumiers were also tax collectors and were at the heart of inter-imperial diplomacy between France and England, particularly in the surveillance of colonial borders and Sahelian borders.

This paper is based on symbolic interactionism framework. It aims to describe educational dynamics occurring at the European Union gates. It arises from a field study which was done between February 2016 and August 2019 in Greece, Northen Macedonia, Serbia, Italy and France. The main objective of this research is to demonstrate that according to certain conditions, schools within the camps are able to distotalize this kind of total institution. To draw those mechanisms, we will define the social object of “school-form” which is able to catalyse the distotalization.

This article analyses the work Mettre la hache : slam western sur l'inceste (2015b) by Pattie O'Green, focusing specifically on the representation of barriers to speaking out about the experience of incest. I draw on Miranda Fricker's concept of “epistemic injustice” (2007) and on other recent work in social epistemology to shed light on forms of epistemic injustice experienced by survivors of incest. Through the analysis of Mettre la hache, I show that the pathologization of feminist rage, the acceptance of misogynist humour, and the construction of the naïve child each contribute to the difficulty of narrating incest.

This article questions how the European Commission (EC) is making a case for the ecological and digital transition, two strategic priorities for 2019-2024 that are difficult to reconcile and coexist. As intimately linked in substance as they are separate in form, the ecological and digital transitions are the subject of two distinct sections on the EC web portal: they constitute the corpus of the study, multimodal and rich from an editorial point of view. After having situated our approach within the theoretical approaches of European public communication and elaborated the methodology according to a discursive and semiotic approach, we confront the results of the discourse analysis with those of the study of textual landscapes. The discursive filiations, tensions, variants (motifs, narratives and proposed models; significant places and moments), and invariants (gnomic statements) identified allow us to specify the Doxa on which the communicational paradox considered is based.
