This book was released on 2001 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lieu de mémoire et de convoitise, de mystère et d'exotisme, d'attirances ou de répulsions, l'Orient arabe, lorsqu'on l'évoque, suscite toujours une réaction. En France, parallèlement aux écrivains et aux poètes orientalistes qui ont nourri l'imaginaire des Français de représentations qui perdurent, la presse a grandement contribué à forger dans l'opinion une perception de l'Orient souvent passionnée mais dont le discours est avant tout homogène et tranché. La Revue des deux Mondes a été, sans doute, l'une des plus engagées et des plus prolixes, notamment aux moments cruciaux de la liquidation de l'Empire ottoman et lors de la naissance de l'Orient arabe contemporain. Notre intérêt s'est porté avant tout sur la naissance de l'Orient arabe entre 1916-1939, entre une révolte arabe prometteuse et une catastrophique Seconde Guerre mondiale, tel qu'il est vu et v́ecu, non seulement par la Revue des Deux Mondes, mais également par certaines personnalités politiques arabes et européennes (le chérif de La Mecque Hussein Ibn Ali, l'émir Fayçal, Saad Zaghloul, Gertrude Bell, etc.) que les publicistes ont interviewées

Book The Social History Of Labor In The Middle East

Download or read book The Social History Of Labor In The Middle East written by Ellis Goldberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once considered of little import, the social history of labor in the Middle East emerged in the 1980s as a major area of research, as historians sought to uncover the roots of working-class organizing. This volume, the first in an important new series, presents a broad overview of recent literature on the history of workers in the Middle East since 1800 in a bold effort to bring together new directions in research and to reexamine the relevance of established ones. Contributors explore the history of labor by situating state-led industrialization within the context of older artisanal social communities. They examine how industrialization enhanced government control over the economy as a whole and analyze the public's reaction to centralized economic authority. They also explain the longevity of social coalitions supporting state industrial monopolies and examine their breakdown, along with the emergence of Islamist and other oppositional movements. Taken together the essays provide a historically grounded context for viewing the shifting relationship between states and the world economy as well as between particular states and classes and form a rich synthesis of current interdisciplinary literature on work and workers in the region.

Book Migrations et changements sociaux dans l   Orient arabe

Download or read book Migrations et changements sociaux dans l Orient arabe written by Élisabeth Longuenesse and published by Presses de l’Ifpo. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Après un volume consacré à Industrialisation et changement sociaux dans l’Orient arabe, Beyrouth, 1982, le Centre d’édutes et de recherches sur le Moyen-Orient contemporain présente une série d’études sur les migrations liées aux mouvements de main-d’œuvre provoqués à travers la péninsule arabique, dans le Golfe et au-delà par l’exploitation des hydrocarbures, la mobilisation de la rente pétrolière et les phénomènes d’industrialisation, d’urbanisation et de «tertiairisation» qui en découlent: Migrations et changement sociaux... Il s’agit ici encore d’éclairer quelques-uns des aspects de la mutation des sociétés de l’Orient arabe. Échanges entre régions peuplées mais disposant de peu de capitaux et régions manquant de travailleurs mais regorgeant souvent de moyens de paiement, échanges entre sociétés riches de leurs institutions de formation et sociétés en rupture de tradition: les migrants sont aussi bien ici des travailleurs peu qualifiés recrutés en Asie, ou dans les anciennes sociétés paysannes locales, que des ouvriers des villes récemment grossies dans la région ou des cadres et des ingénieurs souvent originaires eux-mêmes de l’Orient. Monographies de filières migratoires, analyses d’entreprises, présentation de cas nationaux, rappel d’ascensions sociales, discussions sur la nature des rapports entre capital et travail, interrogations sur les relations entre migrations et développement: ce livre apporte une contribution supplémentaire à la connaissance d’une partie du monde en pleine transformation et fournira des points de repère utiles dans le débat relatif à l’échange inégal et aux transferts ce technologie.

Book Syria and Lebanon Under the French Mandate

Download or read book Syria and Lebanon Under the French Mandate written by Idir Ouahes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French rule over Syria and Lebanon was premised on a vision of a special French protectorate established through centuries of cultural activity: archaeological, educational and charitable. Initial French methods of organising and supervising cultural activity sought to embrace this vision and to implement it in the exploitation of antiquities, the management and promotion of cultural heritage, the organisation of education and the control of public opinion among the literate classes. However, an examination of the first five years of the League of Nations-assigned mandate, 1920-1925, reveals that French expectations of a protectorate were quickly dashed by widespread resistance to their cultural policies, not simply among Arabists but also among minority groups initially expected to be loyal to the French. The violence of imposing the mandate 'de facto', starting with a landing of French troops in the Lebanese and Syrian coast in 1919 - and followed by extension to the Syrian interior in 1920 - was met by consistent violent revolt. Examining the role of cultural institutions reveals less violent yet similarly consistent contestation of the French mandate. The political discourses emerging after World War I fostered expectations of European tutelages that prepared local peoples for autonomy and independence. Yet, even among the most Francophile of stakeholders, the unfolding of the first years of French rule brought forth entirely different events and methods. In this book, Idir Ouahes provides an in-depth analysis of the shifts in discourses, attitudes and activities unfolding in French and locally-organised institutions such as schools, museums and newspapers, revealing how local resistance put pressure on cultural activity in the early years of the French mandate.
