En 1938, fatigué des compromissions de l'Église, dégoûté par les accords de Munich, Georges Bernanos quitte la France avec sa femme et ses six enfants. Son but : recréer une France utopique en terre brésilienne. La réalité sera autre. À la place, l'ancien compagnon de route de l'Action française, le polémiste des Grands Cimetières sous la lune, le royaliste capétien, va découvrir au Brésil une forme paradoxale de liberté. Travailleur infatigable, il porte un regard lucide sur l'Europe en proie aux convulsions et prête sa plume à la France libre.En 1945, à l'appel de De Gaulle, il finit par quitter sa presque-patrie qui ne cesse, dès lors, d'accompagner ses pensées et ses écrits : « Le plus grand, le plus profond, le plus douloureux désir de mon cœur en ce qui me regarde c'est de vous revoir tous, de revoir votre pays, de reposer dans cette terre où j'ai tant souffert et tant espéré pour la France, d'y attendre la résurrection, comme j'y ai attendu la victoire. » Sébastien Lapaque, voyageant sur les traces de l'écrivain, révèle un autre Bernanos, dont l'exil choisi éclaire les contradictions d'un chrétien qui n'aimait guère les tièdes : son monarchisme utopique, son antisémitisme, sa mélancolie parfois joyeuse, son rapport avec de Gaulle, l'« homme prédestiné ». Se révèle une voix puissante en lutte avec les faveurs factices de son époque - il refusera par trois fois la Légion d'honneur et un siège à l'Académie française - et toute forme d'asservissement. Un anticonformisme qui achève de le désigner pour la postérité comme figure tutélaire des hussards. Un bel essai biographique superbement écrit.

At the height of the Middle Ages, a peculiar system of perpetual exile-or abjuration-flourished in western Europe. It was a judicial form of exile, not political or religious, and it was meted out to felons for crimes deserving of severe corporal punishment or death. From England to France explores the lives of these men and women who were condemned to abjure the English realm, and draws on their unique experiences to shed light on a medieval legal tradition until now very poorly understood.William Chester Jordan weaves a breathtaking historical tapestry, examining the judicial and administrative processes that led to the abjuration of more than seventy-five thousand English subjects, and recounting the astonishing journeys of the exiles themselves. Some were innocents caught up in tragic circumstances, but many were hardened criminals. Almost every English exile departed from the port of Dover, many bound for the same French village, a place called Wissant. Jordan vividly describes what happened when the felons got there, and tells the stories of the few who managed to return to England, either illegally or through pardons.From England to France provides new insights into a fundamental pillar of medieval English law and shows how it collapsed amid the bloodshed of the Hundred Years' War.

This important collection examines deportation as an increasingly global mechanism of state control. Anthropologists, historians, legal scholars, and sociologists consider not only the physical expulsion of noncitizens but also the social discipline and labor subordination resulting from deportability, the threat of forced removal. They explore practices and experiences of deportation in regional and national settings from the U.S.-Mexico border to Israel, and from Somalia to Switzerland. They also address broader questions, including the ontological significance of freedom of movement; the historical antecedents of deportation, such as banishment and exile; and the development, entrenchment, and consequences of organizing sovereign power and framing individual rights by territory. Whether investigating the power that individual and corporate sponsors have over the fate of foreign laborers in Bahrain, the implications of Germany’s temporary suspension of deportation orders for pregnant and ill migrants, or the significance of the detention camp, the contributors reveal how deportation reflects and reproduces notions about public health, racial purity, and class privilege. They also provide insight into how deportation and deportability are experienced by individuals, including Arabs, South Asians, and Muslims in the United States. One contributor looks at asylum claims in light of an unusual anti-deportation campaign mounted by Algerian refugees in Montreal; others analyze the European Union as an entity specifically dedicated to governing mobility inside and across its official borders. The Deportation Regime addresses urgent issues related to human rights, international migration, and the extensive security measures implemented by nation-states since September 11, 2001.
