Abstract

Explicitly comparative in its approach, Paradoxes of Cultural Recognition discusses central issues regarding multiculturalism in today's Europe, based on studies of Norway and the Netherlands. Distinguishing clearly the four social fields of the media, education, the labour market and issues relating to gender, it presents empirical case studies, which offer valuable insights into the nature of majority/minority relationships, whilst raising theoretical questions relevant for further comparisons.

Abstract

This volume introduces sociological knowledge to social reality in various fields that are especially significant for Southern European societies, such as education, migration, social cohesion and political participation. It provides the reader with an understanding of the new and radical challenges that Europe has been called to face, and complements academic research with new conceptualisations of sociology which solve social public problems in specific territorial contexts. The book focuses on the body as the vector of social cohesion policies in the awareness that cohesion revolves around the ability of all people - not just migrants - to manage conflict and change. With these aims, the empowered body is suggested as a means able to build up the timescales of memory as time-windows open to the ethic boundaries of human life. In today's world, the question of empowerment crosses borders, not only geographic but also cognitive, linguistic and cultural ones. Refuting the longstanding notion that culture alone is responsible for group behaviour, this book confronts the "moving up" and "getting on" characterizing current immigration policies, specifically in Europe and the Mediterranean area and, in general, around the world. Methodologically, all contributions here pay attention to the powerful connection between the individual lives and the historical and socio-economic contexts in which these lives unfold. The brilliant analyses here suggest, at least, the "borderlands" as the agent making the movement of policy.

Abstract

Submersion migratoire ? Échec de l'intégration ? Montée du communautarisme ? Les questions relatives aux migrations et à l'intégration des étrangers occupent une place importante dans le débat public, mais restent méconnues et sont souvent caricaturées. Dans un pays qui compte plus de six millions d'immigrés et où un Français sur trois a un grand-parent étranger, il est essentiel de bien connaître les faits migratoires dans leur diversité et de comprendre les enjeux de l'intégration des étrangers.Cet ouvrage replace donc les questionnements actuels dans la perspective du temps long de l'histoire de l'immigration en France et des processus sociaux d'intégration. Il montre ainsi les récurrences dans le rejet des étrangers depuis plus d'un siècle. S'appuyant sur les données les plus récentes de la statistique et de la recherche publiques, Marie-José Bernardot montre les interactions entre une politique d'intégration défaillante et injonctive, qui ignore la diversité des publics immigrés, et d'autres politiques liées à l'immigration (politique de la ville, lutte contre les discriminations liées à l'origine, asile, acquisition de la nationalité française, dispositifs de l'Éducation nationale, etc.).À vocation pédagogique et de vulgarisation, cet ouvrage s'adresse aux étudiants des filières sociales et de l'administration publique, ainsi qu'aux professionnels des administrations nationales et territoriales impliqués à différents niveaux dans les politiques sociales et éducatives. Il intéressera également l'ensemble des acteurs associatifs, professionnels et bénévoles, en contact avec les personnes étrangères, les enfants et les jeunes issus de l'immigration, et, plus largement, tous les citoyens désireux de mieux comprendre, dans leur complexité, les problématiques liées à l'immigration et à l'intégration.

Abstract

How do images circulating in Pacific cultures and exchanged between them and their many visitors transform meanings for all involved? This fascinating collection explores how through mimesis, wayfarers and locales alike borrow images from one another to expand their cultural repertoire of meanings or borrow images from their own past to validate their identities.
