Abstract

Après la vague post-moderniste des années 1980, on assiste à un « retour à la description ». Attentif à la réalité quotidienne des pratiques descriptives en histoire, en anthropologie et en sociologie, ce volume s’intéresse aux formes concrètes de la description dans l’espace ou le temps, d’une discipline à l’autre. Il aborde le travail descriptif spécifique aux sciences sociales, comme les « descriptions des autres », que le chercheur en sciences sociales utilise comme source ou comme objet de sa recherche.

Abstract

This comprehensive, yet concise, introduction to the use of documents as tools within social science research argues that documents stand in a dual-relation to human activity. Therefore by transmitting ideas and influencing the course and nature of human activity they are integral to the research process.

Abstract

Lorsque, à la fin du xixe siècle, la sociologie est portée sur les fonts baptismaux, la comparaison internationale est présentée par des auteurs comme E. Durkheim ou M. Weber comme l’un des détours méthodologiques les plus fructueux pour l’analyse des institutions et des pratiques sociales. Qu’en est-il aujourd’hui ? Comment, à l’heure d’une globalisation multiforme, les différentes sciences de la société - l’économie, l’histoire, les sciences de l’éducation, les sciences politiques, la sociologie… - s’emparent-elles de cette stratégie de recherche ? Produit de la collaboration étroite de plus d’une vingtaine de chercheurs de spécialités et de nationalités différentes, cet ouvrage répond à deux questions majeures. Quelles sont les principales avancées conceptuelles et empiriques de ces dernières décennies dans le champ des comparaisons internationales ? Comment, dans le quotidien de leurs activités, les chercheurs fabriquent-ils des comparaisons ? En mêlant en permanence réflexions épistémologiques, considérations méthodologiques concrètes et présentations de travaux empiriques (sur l’école, le temps, le travail…), cet ouvrage offre un panorama aussi original qu’inédit sur l’une des stratégies de recherche les plus fécondes des sciences sociales contemporaines.

Abstract

Political Elite and the New Russia convincingly argues that although reforms in Russia have been initiated by those close to the President, in fact local and national elites have been the crucial strategic actors in reshaping Russia's economy, democratising its political system and decentralising its administration.This book analyses the role of elites under Yeltsin and Putin, discussing the extent to which they form a coherent political culture, and how far this culture has been in step with, or at odds with, the reform policies of the Kremlin leadership.

Abstract

The transformation from Communist rule towards democratic development in Russia cannot be fully understood without taking the elites into full consideration. Elites and Democratic Development in Russia examines how elites support and challenge democracy and why they are crucial to Russian democracy in particular.In this innovative volume, twelve respected scholars investigate how elites have affected the transition from Communist rule towards democratic development in Russia. They discuss how the elites' degree of integration on national and regional levels may constitute the main
