Abstract

Dresser un bilan de la colonisation est un exercice délicat, tant le phénomène est complexe, pluriséculaire et hétérogène. C'est pourtant un devoir d'historien qui ne peut accepter de voir le seul législateur trancher sur son rôle prétendument positif. Les études postcoloniales ont ouvert des voies nouvelles, décryptant l'ambiguïté d'un monde où la promesse du progrès se mêle à la domination. Mais ce courant a relégué dans l'ombre la question des liens éventuels entre colonisation et développement. Par opposition, d'autres travaux se sont attachés à les étudier, laissant toutefois croire à tort que l'identité du colonisateur en fixait d'avance le sens. Une nouvelle investigation était donc nécessaire et Bouda Etemad l'entreprend, en archéologue de la pensée coloniale. Dans une perspective d'histoire globale, il montre pourquoi la colonisation crée, selon les époques et les lieux, des situations tantôt favorables tantôt hostiles au développement. Elle ne modèle pas pareillement populations, économies et sociétés, ni ne recèle les mêmes potentialités. D'où le caractère ambigu de son héritage.

Abstract

No scholarship exists on the English colonization of Ireland in the sixteenth centuries from a post-colonial perspective, and this book seeks to fill in that gap in the literature. While aimed at academic generalists, and described as an introduction to the topic, the book expands ongoing discussions about the nature of imperialism, and whether or not there is a paradigmatic way in which it occurs that transcends its particular time and place. Ireland is a microcosm that when studied reveals how the contemporary world still shows lingering traces of colonialism. Hendrix convincingly shows how

Abstract

The essays in this volume reflect on the nature of subjectivity in the diverse places where anthropologists work at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Contributors explore everyday modes of social and psychological experience, the constitution of the subject, and forms of subjection that shape the lives of violent Basque youth, visionary Indonesian artists, bureaucrats and members of nongovernmental HIV/AIDS programs in China and Zaire, psychiatrists and the mentally ill in Morocco and Ireland, and persons who have suffered trauma or been displaced by violence in the Middle East and in South and Southeast Asia. The contributors' analyses place the political at the heart of the psychological and the psychological at the heart of the political as the starting point for rethinking subjectivity.

Abstract

In Our New Husbands Are Here, Emily Lynn Osborn investigates a central puzzle of power and politics in West African history: Why do women figure frequently in the political narratives of the precolonial period, and then vanish altogether with colonization? Osborn addresses this question by exploring the relationship of the household to the state. By analyzing the history of statecraft in the interior savannas of West Africa (in present-day Guinea-Conakry), Osborn shows that the household, and women within it, played a critical role in the pacifist Islamic state of Kankan-Baté, enabling it to
