Attempts to explain the persistent resistance to French women's political rights have used various interpretive strategies. The approach in this essay centers on the anti-feminist reaction, in rhetoric and practice, to the mobilization of the French feminist and suffrage movements, on the eve of the Great War. It analyzes the nature of the “anti” positions in relation to other reactionary ideologies across the political spectrum. The diffuse, often unarticulated, nature of French anti-feminism, its embeddedness in cultural and political institutions made it hard for feminists to contest. The essay explores the renewal of older forms of patriarchy and its more contemporary pseudo-scientific rationale influenced by Social Darwinism. Resistance to democratic change of any kind, expressed as dissatisfaction with the existing electoral system, played a divisive role in recreating “la guerre des sexes.” Sources are drawn from the extensive anti-feminist literature of the period and a survey of elite male opinion published in the Parisian press in 1910.

What were some of the conditions of lesbian visibility in Montreal in the 1970s and 1980s in the context of the Quiet Revolution and the emergence of lesbian and gay liberation and second wave feminism? This article explores the problem of visibility at the heart of lesbian and queer women's thought and experience through a study of Plessigraphe, a lesbian-feminist photography studio. Drawing on the epistemological and methodological approaches associated with critical visual culture studies, the author analyses the practices of two lesbian-feminist photographers who contributed to lesbian visibility amidst feminist media and cultural networks of the time.

The empirical and militant literature, as well as some laws in the field of perinatality, demonstrate eloquent facts : many women experience violence when they give birth at a health care facility. However, a brief overview of the literature reveals the use of different terms to identify this violence. In order to define the attributes pertaining to the concept of obstetrical violence, improve its understanding, and contribute to its operationalization and use in research and clinical practice, the authors have conducted a conceptual analysis inspired by Lorraine Olszewski Walker and Kay Coalson Avant's methodology, in which they integrated the feminist analysis of Judith Wuest. Their analysis first allows them to illustrate the different uses of the concept of obstetrical violence, determine the defining attributes, as well as its antecedents and its consequences. The authors then propose a case study in order to illustrate the concept as well as a definition based on the central elements that compose it.

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.

AbstractThis paper examines the role played by the concept of experience in the method of correlation such as both theologians, Paul Tillich (protestant) and Edward Schillebeeckx (catholic), brought it out. We shall see how the concept of experience is determining and becomes a keystone. We conclude by presenting the strengths and the limits of such a method and see how the “theologal” resists to it and calls us to go farther.

SummaryWithin the frame of a study of knowledge shared between the student teacher mentors and student teachers, the author presents an analysis of knowledge regarding a cultural approach in teaching ; Data was collected from five student teachers and their mentors. The participants define the notion of culture with various meanings, question the meaning given to a cultural approach in teaching while recognizing the cultural dimension of a school, and consider that a cultural approach is a means to support the student in his learning. Although their knowledge changed little during the practicum experience, the participants noted that there was a positive impact from their discussions.

AbstractIn the Democratic Republic of the Congo (former Zaire), it is generally assumed that popular musicians use magic to increase their popularity. Rumors about musicians describe in great detail their dealings with the occult, especially their alleged connections with human sacrifice. While musicians publicly deny the use of witchcraft, it is not because their position as “modern” musicians precludes this possibility, but because practicing witchcraft is considered anti-social, selfish and unpredictable. With Mobutu in power, corruption is part of a survival plan, and such rumors underline the idea that one can achieve personal success and social mobility by non abritrary means.

Social workers generally consider teenage pregnancy as an important problem, a point of view which is supported by many studies that underline the negative consequences of maternity at this stage of the life course. This article further examines this question through the analysis of labour market trajectories of young women who have not completed their studies and who gave birth during their teenage years or in their early twenties. Based on retrospective semi-directed interviews, the results show that employment outcomes for these young women are not a fore drawn conclusion. Through family support and formal programmes, many manage to obtain stable employment. However, government programmes remain a shaky form of support and the shortcomings of these programmes cannot be systematically made up by help from the family.

SummaryThis article, based on conversations carried out with spouses who re-married at retirement age, seeks to determine the extent to which a new “intimate self” is rebuilt during these late re-marriages. The analysis focuses, in succession, on the feelings for the new partner and on the organization of the new married life. It shows, on one hand, that the emotional context of the new relationship is more often one of tranquility than one of sexual elation and, on the other hand, that the new married life is marked by loyalty to one's self and to one's past. Consequently, the stability of one's identity prevails, in general, over the transformation of oneself.
