Attentats en France, extension spectaculaire de l’évangélisme et du salafisme, repli des communautés juives, fronde catholique contre le mariage pour tous, recrutement de djihadistes sur Internet, laïcité « universelle » contre foulard confessionnel… la question religieuse électrise la sphère politique et sociale. Cette actualité brûlante place la question du prosélytisme au cœur des combats politiques et sociaux d’aujourd’hui. Des débats où les trois grandes religions apparaissent à l’avant-garde. Les études ici réunies se déploient dans des espaces géographiques primordiaux pour la recherche allant d’Europe (France, Suède, Italie) jusqu’en Afrique (Cap-Vert) en passant par le monde arabo-musulman (Maroc, Tunisie, Égypte et Liban). Les auteurs analysent les réactions et réponses des sociétés confrontées à la question prosélyte, en exposant leurs spécificités socio-historiques et leurs dynamiques propres. Ce faisant, cet ouvrage dresse un tableau nuancé et fidèle des prosélytismes à l’œuvre et offre un ensemble inédit de matériaux et de concepts sociologiques à qui veut comprendre les soubresauts et les tensions de notre monde contemporain.

Famine remains one of the worst calamities that can befall a society. Mass starvation--whether it is inflicted by drought or engineered by misguided or genocidal economic policies--devastates families, weakens the social fabric, and undermines political stability. Cormac Ó Gráda, the acclaimed author who chronicled the tragic Irish famine in books like Black '47 and Beyond, here traces the complete history of famine from the earliest records to today. Combining powerful storytelling with the latest evidence from economics and history, Ó Gráda explores the causes and profound consequences of famine over the past five millennia, from ancient Egypt to the killing fields of 1970s Cambodia, from the Great Famine of fourteenth-century Europe to the famine in Niger in 2005. He enriches our understanding of the most crucial and far-reaching aspects of famine, including the roles that population pressure, public policy, and human agency play in causing famine; how food markets can mitigate famine or make it worse; famine's long-term demographic consequences; and the successes and failures of globalized disaster relief. Ó Gráda demonstrates the central role famine has played in the economic and political histories of places as different as Ukraine under Stalin, 1940s Bengal, and Mao's China. And he examines the prospects of a world free of famine. This is the most comprehensive history of famine available, and is required reading for anyone concerned with issues of economic development and world poverty.
