La timide recomposition du paysage politique en cours dans un nombre croissant d’États africains est sans conteste le produit en même temps que le moteur de la revendication des droits de l’homme dans ces mêmes États. Adoptée en 1981, la Charte africaine des droits de l’homme et des peuples a, avant l’heure, mis l’emphase sur cette relation dialectique entre libération des peuples et libertés de l’individu. Ce n’est pas là la moindre originalité de cette convention régionale que le présent ouvrage se propose d’analyser minutieusement sur un plan juridique. Pour l’essentiel, l’ouvrage consiste en un examen approfondi du contenu normatif et institutionnel de la Charte africaine des droits de l’homme et des peuples. Cette étude apporte des réponses précises à toute une série de questions qui ne manquent pas d’interpeller le juriste. En consacrant par exemple les devoirs de l’individu, cette convention ne reprend-elle pas d’un côté ce qu’elle donne de l’autre à l’individu ? Les droits de l’individu ne risquent-ils pas d’être sacrifiés sur l’autel des droits du peuple ? À cet égard, un des principaux mérites de cette étude est qu’elle n’hésite pas à explorer certains pans entiers du droit international général ; il en va ainsi à propos de l’absence de clause de dérogation qui fait l’objet d’une analyse rigoureuse sous l’angle du droit des traités ou encore de la question des droits du peuple. Le fonctionnement de la Commission africaine des droits de l’homme et des peuples, installée à Banjul (Gambie) en 1989, est également examiné dans le détail. L’étude s’achève par une évaluation générale de la Charte africaine et de son rôle potentiel dans la protection des droits de l’homme en Afrique. Première monographie exhaustive en langue française sur la Charte africaine, elle est un ouvrage incontournable pour tout praticien du droit ou des relations internationales intéressé par la problématique des droits de l’homme en Afrique.

Leading the reader through the darkened séance rooms and laboratories of Imperial and inter-war Germany, The Stepchildren of Science casts light on the emergence of psychical research and parapsychology in the German context. It looks, in particular, at the role of the psychiatrist Albert von Schrenck-Notzing - a figure who fashioned himself as both propagandist and Grand Seignior of German parapsychology - in shaping these nascent disciplines. In contrast to other recent studies in which occultism is seen as a means of dealing with or creating “the modern”, this book considers the epistemological, cultural and social issues that arose from psychical researchers’ and parapsychologists’ claims to scientific legitimacy. Focusing on the boundary disputes between these researchers and the spiritualists, occultists, psychologists and scientists with whom they competed for authority over the paranormal, The Stepchildren of Science demonstrates that in the German context both proponents and opponents alike understood psychical research and parapsychology as border sciences.

Aesthetic Anxiety analyzes uncanny repetition in psychology, literature, philosophy, and film, and produces a new narrative about the centrality of aesthetics in modern subjectivity. The often horrible, but sometimes also enjoyable, experience of anxiety can be an aesthetic mode as well as a psychological state. Johnson’s elucidation of that state in texts by authors from Kant to Rilke demonstrates how estrangement can produce attachment, and repositions Romanticism as an engine of modernity.

This book reads messianic expectation as the defining characteristic of German culture in the first decades of the twentieth century. It has long been accepted that the Expressionist movement in Germany was infused with a thoroughly messianic strain. Here, with unprecedented detail and focus, that strain is traced through the work of four important Expressionist playwrights: Ernst Barlach, Georg Kaiser, Ernst Toller and Franz Werfel. Moreover, these dramatists are brought into new and sustained dialogues with the theorists and philosophers of messianism who were their contemporaries: Walter Benjamin, Ernst Bloch, Martin Buber, Hermann Cohen, Gershom Scholem. In arguing, for example, that concepts like Bloch’s utopian self-encounter ( Selbstbegegnung ) and Benjamin’s messianic now-time ( Jetztzeit ) reappear as the framework for Expressionism’s staging of collective redemption in a new age, Anderson forges a previously underappreciated link in the study of Central European thought in the early twentieth century.
