Book Destins de l adoption

Download or read book Destins de l adoption written by Pierre Levy-Soussan and published by Fayard. This book was released on 2010-11-03 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’adoption est une aventure risquée, qui se termine trop souvent par un échec (réabandons d’enfants, absence de sentiment filiatifs réciproques) et il n’y a en France aucune politique qui permette de l’éviter. À travers de nombreux exemples, l’auteur tente d’éclairer les étapes décisives du processus d’adoption, tant pour l’enfant que pour ses futurs parents, ainsi que les difficultés rencontrées et les erreurs à ne pas commettre. Il dénonce l’évolution de plus en plus biologisante de la filiation, susceptible d’ébranler l’adoption la plus solide. Toutes les réussites familiales de la « greffe » que représente la transformation d’un enfant en fils ou fille témoignent de la complexité d’un voyage que les parents doivent entreprendre en connaissant les risques à venir et leurs propres limites. Sur le plan international, la perte progressive de la crédibilité de notre pays dans ce domaine repose en particulier sur l’absence de sélection rigoureuse des candidats à l’adoption. L’auteur évoque en outre l’amateurisme institutionnel en matière d’adoption et l’absence d’une réelle politique de prévention des échecs en France, sans faire l’impasse sur certaines affaires très médiatisées (trafics de bébés bulgares, Arche de Zoé ou enfants d’Haïti).

Book Des enfants venus de loin

Download or read book Des enfants venus de loin written by Yves Denéchère and published by Armand Colin. This book was released on 2011 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 2010, plus de 3 500 enfants étrangers sont arrivés en France, dont près de 1 000 venus d’Haïti après le séisme dévastateur qui a touché le pays. Les débats sur la meilleure manière de venir en aide aux enfants et sur les procédures de l’adoption internationale renouvellent des interrogations déjà anciennes autour du désir d’enfant, du sentiment humanitaire et du droit international. Pour les adoptés, les adoptants et tous ceux qui s’intéressent à ce sujet, regarder en arrière est un bon moyen de mieux comprendre les enjeux d’aujourd’hui. Pour la première fois un ouvrage présente une histoire de l’adoption internationale qui permet de replacer dans leur contexte les histoires personnelles toujours particulières des uns et des autres. Des archives consultées et des témoignages recueillis émergent les différents temps de l’adoption internationale, ses évolutions géographiques et sociologiques, les rôles des différents acteurs. Des épisodes méconnus et des perspectives nouvelles enrichissent la connaissance d’un phénomène de société qui ne laisse personne indifférent. Yves Denéchère est professeur d’histoire contemporaine à l’Université d’Angers. À partir de sources inédites, il traite ici d’un sujet d’histoire du temps présent situé au croisement des relations internationales et de l’histoire sociale.

  • Release : 2005-05-12
  • ISBN : 0773572465
  • Pages : 461 pages

Download or read book Ghost Brothers written by Rony Blum and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2005-05-12 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Devastating losses caused by diseases such as smallpox led to an epidemic of bereavement among the Natives. This loss resonated with the French, who had dealt with smaller epidemics in France and were also mourning their absent communities through a nostalgia for home. Blum traces how ghosts provided transgenerational and transcultural links that guided understanding rather than encouraging violence. Ghost Brothers insightfully examines the process of this colonial interdependent alliance between Native and European worlds.

Book The French Revolution in Global Perspective

Download or read book The French Revolution in Global Perspective written by Suzanne Desan and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situating the French Revolution in the context of early modern globalization for the first time, this book offers a new approach to understanding its international origins and worldwide effects. A distinguished group of contributors shows that the political culture of the Revolution emerged out of a long history of global commerce, imperial competition, and the movement of people and ideas in places as far flung as India, Egypt, Guiana, and the Caribbean. This international approach helps to explain how the Revolution fused immense idealism with territorial ambition and combined the drive for human rights with various forms of exclusion. The essays examine topics including the role of smuggling and free trade in the origins of the French Revolution, the entwined nature of feminism and abolitionism, and the influence of the French revolutionary wars on the shape of American empire. The French Revolution in Global Perspective illuminates the dense connections among the cultural, social, and economic aspects of the French Revolution, revealing how new political forms-at once democratic and imperial, anticolonial and centralizing-were generated in and through continual transnational exchanges and dialogues.

Arranged in chronological order, with numerous quotations from French fiction, poetry, drama, art criticism, art history, literary history, and reference works, Salvator Rosa in French Literature forms a narrative account of the reception of Rosa’s life and work in the world of French letters. James S. Patty, professor emeritus of French at Vanderbilt University, is the author of Dürer in French Letters . He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.

Book excerpt: On October 14-19, 1990, the 6th International Conference on the Conservation of Earthen Architecture was held in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Sponsored by the GCI, the Museum of New Mexico State Monuments, ICCROM, CRATerre-EAG, and the National Park Service, under the aegis of US/ICOMOS, the event was organized to promote the exchange of ideas, techniques, and research findings on the conservation of earthen architecture. Presentations at the conference covered a diversity of subjects, including the historic traditions of earthen architecture, conservation and restoration, site preservation, studies in consolidation and seismic mitigation, and examinations of moisture problems, clay chemistry, and microstructures. In discussions that focused on the future, the application of modern technologies and materials to site conservation was urged, as was using scientific knowledge of existing structures in the creation of new, low-cost, earthen architecture housing.

Book The Making of a Social Disease

Download or read book The Making of a Social Disease written by David S. Barnes and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first English-language study of popular and scientific responses to tuberculosis in nineteenth-century France, David Barnes provides a much-needed historical perspective on a disease that is making an alarming comeback in the United States and Europe. Barnes argues that French perceptions of the disease—ranging from the early romantic image of a consumptive woman to the later view of a scourge spread by the poor—owed more to the power structures of nineteenth-century society than to medical science. By 1900, the war against tuberculosis had become a war against the dirty habits of the working class. Lucid and original, Barnes's study broadens our understanding of how and why societies assign moral meanings to deadly diseases.

Book A History of the French in London

Download or read book A History of the French in London written by Debra Kelly and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines, for the first time, the history of the social, cultural, political and economic presence of the French in London, and explores the multiple ways in which this presence has contributed to the life of the city. The capital has often provided a place of refuge, from the Huguenots in the 17th century, through the period of the French Revolution, to various exile communities during the 19th century, and on to the Free French in the Second World War.It also considers the generation of French citizens who settled in post-war London, and goes on to provide insights into the contemporary French presence by assessing the motives and lives of French people seeking new opportunities in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It analyses the impact that the French have had historically, and continue to have, on London life in the arts, gastronomy, business, industry and education, manifest in diverse places and institutions from the religious to the political via the educational, to the commercial and creative industries.
