Book excerpt: Cette HDR est une HDR sur travaux. Elle se compose de trois parties. Les deux premières sont une synthèse de mes travaux antérieurs dans leur double dimension: d'une part, des travaux sur la violence, constitués de réflexions sur les catégories et catégorisations de la violence - criminelle, sociale, politique, et terrorisme -, d'un terrain nouveau sur les officiers communistes engagés dans les guerres coloniales, et d'une comparaison entre ceux-ci et les militants d'extrême gauche tentés par l'action violente qui avaient fait l'objet de ma thèse de doctorat. D'autre part, des travaux souvent collectifs sur les mouvements sociaux, en particulier sur le mouvement altermondialiste. Dans une troisième et dernière partie, j'esquisse deux nouvelles perspectives de recherche ayant pour ambition de coupler les méthodes et de réconcilier l'analyse de la violence et celle de la sociologie des mouvements sociaux, à travers la présentation d'une enquête collective sur les manifestations, et d'un projet de recherche individuel sur la violence révolutionnaire des années 1968.

Download or read book Theories of Civil Violence written by James B. Rule and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theories of Civil Violence provides both a new look at the origins of civil upheaval and a critical examination of society theory itself. James B. Rule develops an incisive historical analysis of theories of civil violence, beginning with the classic views of Hobbes and Marx and continuing to those of Gurr, Tilly, and other present-day thinkers. He then exploits this overview to yield conclusions on the nature of and prospects for theoretical understanding of social and political life in general.

Download or read book Violence and Colonial Order written by Martin Thomas and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-20 with total page 541 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a pioneering, multi-empire account of the relationship between the politics of imperial repression and the economic structures of European colonies between the two World Wars. Ranging across colonial Africa, Southeast Asia and the Caribbean, Martin Thomas explores the structure of local police forces, their involvement in colonial labour control and the containment of uprisings and dissent. His work sheds new light on broader trends in the direction and intent of colonial state repression. It shows that the management of colonial economies, particularly in crisis conditions, took precedence over individual imperial powers' particular methods of rule in determining the forms and functions of colonial police actions. The politics of colonial labour thus became central to police work, with the depression years marking a watershed not only in local economic conditions but also in the breakdown of the European colonial order more generally.
Download or read book Interpreting Social Violence in French Culture written by Cynthia A. Bouton and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 1847, a grain convoy passed through Buzançais, an obscure village in a remote region of central France that was suffering from hunger, high prices, and widespread unemployment. Villagers intercepted the shipment, invaded granaries and mills, and forced resale of the grain at a just price set by the people. What started as a classic subsistence movement, however, triggered two days of rioting and class hostility punctuated by uncommon property damage and death. Disorder soon spread throughout the region. The Buzançais riot quickly became an evocative symbol of the rights of the people, and stories about the riot have survived into the twenty-first century. In Interpreting Social Violence in French Culture, Cynthia A. Bouton traces how the production and marketing of the Buzançais riot story served political commentators, publishers, authors, illustrators, and local enthusiasts, enabling them to draw upon key points from the 1847 uprising to negotiate issues relevant to their own times. Bouton argues that over time, especially from the 1970s, the persistent integration of stories of social protest into a widening variety of media has helped shape French political identity as one in which the politics of the street has become as customary as the politics of political assemblies. Bouton examines representations of the riot in newspapers, novels, illustrations, popular and scholarly historical narratives, cartoons, television, local spectacles, and on the Internet. She analyzes power relations embedded in texts and in images; the ways in which texts and images complement, complicate, and contradict each other; and the ways in which history, memory, and fiction intersect. Both in 1847 and subsequently, she shows, efforts to reorder the disorder at Buzançais have exposed aspects of French social and cultural attitudes and practices. She demonstrates that the particular media employed to tell the Buzançais story both constrained and empowered the messages conveyed by textual and visual narratives of it, perhaps as much as the ideological positions of authors, illustrators, or producers. By probing the relationship between medium and story in relation to the Buzançais riot, Interpreting Social Violence in French Culture offers a new interpretation of this defining moment in French history.

Download or read book Enmity and Violence in Early Modern Europe written by Stuart Carroll and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this original study Stuart Carroll transforms our understanding of Europe between 1500 and 1800 by exploring how ordinary people felt about their enemies and the violence it engendered. Enmity, a state or feeling of mutual opposition or hostility, became a major social problem during the transition to modernity. He examines how people used the law, and how they characterised their enmities and expressed their sense of justice or injustice. Through the examples of early modern Italy, Germany, France and England, we see when and why everyday animosities escalated and the attempts of the state to control and even exploit the violence that ensued. This book also examines the communal and religious pressures for peace, and how notions of good neighbourliness and civil order finally worked to underpin trust in the state. Ultimately, enmity is not a relic of the past; it remains one of the greatest challenges to contemporary liberal democracy.

Download or read book Violence et militantisme written by Erminia Calabrese and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Imposée par des régimes politiques autoritaires et répressifs, par des conflits ouverts, des occupations étrangères ou des déplacements de population forcés, la violence est une expérience quotidienne dans de nombreuses sociétés arabes. Elle constitue un élément essentiel de l'engagement des militants politiques ou humanitaires. Les contributions ici réunies souhaitent éclairer ses effets sur les trajectoires, ainsi que sur les pratiques et subjectivités de militants en Jordanie, Palestine, Syrie et Liban au sein de plusieurs organisations (partis politiques, groupes armés, ONG, syndicats, mouvements sociaux, etc.). En portant un regard décentré sur l'engagement militant, les chercheurs soulignent le rôle des émotions, des discontinuités, des ruptures, ainsi que celui de l'incertitude. Un ouvrage qui constitue ainsi un apport scientifique nouveau à la sociologie de l'action collective encore trop centrée sur des contextes pacifiés" (ed.).
