Abstract

Lorsque l'organisation de l'État islamique proclame le califat en 2014, elle signe le retour d'une institution à l'histoire plus que millénaire. Le calife, à l'origine simple successeur du prophète de l'islam, devient une figure centrale du pouvoir, avec la mise en place de plusieurs dynasties califales : les Omeyyades à Damas, les Abbassides à Bagdad, les Fatimides au Caire, les Almohades à Marrakech, les Ottomans à Istanbul. Au fil des siècles, cette figure évolue : d'un chef spirituel et temporel, le calife finit par n'être plus qu'un guide religieux, soumis au pouvoir d'un vizir ou d'un émir. Il subit tout à la fois la pression des oulémas et de l'armée, puis celle des puissances étrangères, avant de disparaître à l'issue de la Première Guerre mondiale. Malgré la suppression du califat en 1924, ce rêve d'unité de la communauté musulmane est toujours présent. Il signe l'échec de l'État-nation porté par le nationalisme arabe et le retour d'un panislamisme conquérant. Loin d'être l'expression d'un fanatisme local, il apparaît aujourd'hui comme un projet mûrement réfléchi à l'enracinement historique.

Abstract

In Conquest and Construction Mark Dike DeLancey investigates the palace architecture of northern Cameroon, a region that was conquered in the early nineteenth century by primarily semi-nomadic, pastoralist, Muslim, Fulɓe forces and incorporated as the largest emirate of the Sokoto Caliphate. Palace architecture is considered first and foremost as political in nature, and therefore as responding not only to the needs and expectations of the conquerors, but also to those of the largely sedentary, agricultural, non-Muslim conquered peoples who constituted the majority population. In the process of reconciling the cultures of these various constituents, new architectural forms and local identities were constructed.
