Download or read book Le Sénégal sous Abdoulaye Wade written by Momar-Coumba Diop and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2013 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ce volume fait suite à celui consacré aux institutions et politiques publiques pendant les deux mandats présidentiels d'Abdoulaye Wade publié précédemment par le même éditeur. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de la réflexion entreprise, depuis la fin des années 1980, sous la direction de Momar-Coumba Diop, pour documenter les trajectoires de l'État sénégalais et de ses relations avec la société. Cet ouvrage examine le rôle joué par Abdoulaye Wade à l'intérieur du "cycle senghorien" qui a dominé la vie du Sénégal depuis 1960. Il propose des outils d'analyse permettant de décrypter le projet hégémonique d'Abdoulaye Wade, en analysant aussi bien ses relations avec la confrérie mouride que les initiatives destinées à ramener la paix en Casamance. Dévoilant les logiques à l'oeuvre dans les syndicats, les partis politiques, les confréries religieuses, les mouvements citoyens, la presse, cet ouvrage collectif rend compte, sur la base de données inédites, des changements identifiés dans les systèmes de valeurs, les itinéraires et les protocoles d'enrichissement ou d'accumulation de pouvoir. Grâce à des approches novatrices, il aborde les recompositions qui s'expriment à travers la musique, les associations, les migrations internationales, la coopération sud-sud, les usages des TIC ou le football. Les livres consacrés au président Wade et à sa gouvernante sont également examinés avec attention et le rôle du griot dans le système de propagande officielle est analysé de manière originale. Ce volume aborde, ensuite, les réactions populaires aux défaillances ou aux dérives du pouvoir central, et les autres formes de résistance au régime du Sopi. Il insiste, enfin, sur le rôle des Assises nationales dans l'émergence et la consolidation du mouvement de contestation qui a mis un terme au régime d'Abdoulaye Wade. Cet ouvrage représente la première tentative d'envergure d'histoire économique, sociale et culturelle de la période considérée. Rédigé dans un style serein, il constitue, avec le précédent, un précieux outil de référence pour ceux qui s'intéressent, à des degrés divers, à la construction de l'avenir du Sénégal."--P.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage réunit des contributeurs du monde entier pour explorer l'enjeu du courage des alternatives dans le contexte actuel d'un changement paradigmatique où la complexité, le pluralisme et l'interculturalisme émergent comme nouveaux horizons de sens. "La vie n'est pas un vide à remplir. C'est une plénitude à découvrir". Oser la vie, oser l'Autre, s'ouvrir à soi-même, aux autres et au monde, voilà de grands défis éternels qui prennent toute leur actualité dans un contexte contemporain de globalisation qui exacerbe la tension entre unité et diversité, tension qui peut se révéler destructrice ou au contraire extrêmement créatrice selon la manière dont on l'aborde. Les contributeurs à cet ouvrage invitent le lecteur à décaler son regard sur le monde en le faisant passer du "centre" vers les "marges". Ils explorent la richesse du monde tel qu'il apparaît dès lors que l'on accepte de sortir de l'univers de nos certitudes pour s'ouvrir au plurivers des possibles expérimentés ou esquissés dans la diversité humaine. Oser l'Autre, c'est oser s'ouvrir à la vie qui est transformation permanente et confronte constamment l'humanité, individuellement et collectivement, à ses limites tout en révélant ses potentialités cachées. Cette découverte ne peut se faire seule et appelle des approches interdisciplinaires et interculturelles. L'ouvrage articule ainsi des approches anthropologiques, philosophiques, juridiques, politiques, psychologiques et mobilise des points de vue d'Afrique, d'Amérique, d'Asie et d'Europe, non seulement pour décrire ou critiquer les situations et paradigmes dominants, mais aussi pour dégager de nouveaux horizons d'un vivre ensemble dans le dialogue et la complémentarité des différences.

This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative volume explores the role of networks and variation in their forms of governance in delivering successful local and regional economic development. Written by experts from different disciplines, it offers a judicious mix of general theoretical reflections and specific case studies of different places, sectors, and scales. The result is an important contribution to an emerging research agenda on networked governance and the governance of networks and their influence on competitiveness in and across different scales of economic activities. Bob Jessop, Lancaster University, UK Networks, Governance and Economic Development represents one of the most authoritative compilations on the role of networks. The editors have brought together an impressive group of scholars who, from different disciplinary approaches, provide a fantastic overview of the key aspects in the governance of networks and on how they affect local economic development. Andrés Rodríguez-Pose, London School of Economics, UK This compact and authoritative book brings together the topical themes of networks and governance to advance understanding of the determinants of local economic development in the context of increasingly global relationships. Analyzing the governance of networks is critical in understanding how individual localities are able to promote development and consolidate positions within global production systems. In addressing such issues, this book accomplishes a significant bridging of disciplinary boundaries, incorporating different theoretical and empirical perspectives on the meanings and roles of territory, economic development and different forms of networks and governance. Networks, Governance and Economic Development brings together the analysis of leading researchers in their fields, following their interactions at a European Science Foundation exploratory workshop. The chapters will be an invaluable resource to researchers working in the fields of regional economic development, economic geography and economic policy as well as postgraduate students taking modules that specialize in aspects of the above themes.

Download or read book Dynamiques religieuses des autochtones des Amériques written by Marie-Pierre Bousquet and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2012 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les croyances et les pratiques religieuses des autochtones des Amériques ont-elles été supplantées par le christianisme ? Jusqu'à récemment, les chercheurs avaient tendance à vouloir démontrer les effets dévastateurs de l'évangélisation sur les systèmes de croyances premiers ou, au contraire, à tenter de mettre au jour, sous la façade chrétienne, les restes d'un substrat religieux originel. En réalité, les dynamiques religieuses chez les autochtones américains apparaissent bien plus complexes et subtiles. De nos jours, des réseaux religieux sont en voie d'émergence ou de consolidation. Ils s'inscrivent dans un contexte de mondialisation, mettant en contact les autochtones avec des spiritualités et des croyances issues de tous les continents. Par une curieuse inversion historique, l'expérience religieuse n'est plus un facteur de déstructuration et d'assimilation, mais constitue un facteur de reconstruction sociale et politique. A une époque où les autochtones des Amériques et d'ailleurs multiplient leurs échanges spirituels, il est paradoxal de constater combien les chercheurs demeurent mal outillés pour comprendre ces phénomènes contemporains. Quel est le contexte sociologique de ces dynamiques religieuses ? Quelle en est la profondeur historique ? Quels sont les enracinements de ce mouvement dans les mythes et les rites traditionnels ? Cet ouvrage réunit les contributions de chercheurs travaillant du sud au nord de l'Amérique autochtone. A travers leurs textes, qui abordent différents systèmes religieux non cloisonnés sur eux-mêmes (chamanisme, catholicisme, pentecôtisme, mouvements évangéliques, panindianisme), se donnent à voir l'originalité et le dynamisme des spiritualités autochtones contemporaines.

Download or read book Development and Territorial Restructuring in an Era of Global Change written by Elisabeth Peyroux and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-07-25 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thinking about development and the environment simultaneously is one of the biggest scientific and societal challenges of the 21st century. Understanding the interactions between biophysical systems and human activities in an era of global change requires overcoming disciplinary divides and opening up new epistemological perspectives. This book explores these challenges using a territorial lens. Combining various scales of analyses (from global to local) and contexts (both urban and rural) in the North and in the South, it analyzes the relationships between environment and development through a variety of geographical objects (i.e. cities, rural and agricultural areas, coastlines, watershed), themes (i.e. ecological transitions, food, energy, transport, agriculture, mining activities) and methodologies (i.e. qualitative and quantitative approaches, modeling, in situ measurements). By engaging in a dialogue between social science and natural science disciplines, within different fields and with a variety of forms of knowledge production, this book provides essential information for understanding and reading the complexity of a globalized world. This book is targeted at academics and students in social sciences and at stakeholders in the field of territorial and environmental management.

Book excerpt: This book offers in-depth accounts of encounters between Chinese and African social and economic actors that have been increasing rapidly since the early 2000s. With a clear focus on social changes, be it quotidian behaviour or specific practices, the authors employ multi-disciplinary approaches in analysing the various impacts that the intensifying interaction between Chinese and Africans in their roles as ethnic and cultural others, entrepreneurial migrants, traders, employers, employees etc. have on local developments and transformations within the host societies, be they on the African continent or in China. The dynamics of social change addressed in case studies cover processes of social mobility through migration, adaptation of business practices, changing social norms, consumption patterns, labour relations and mutual perceptions, cultural brokerage, exclusion and inclusion, gendered experiences, and powerful imaginations of China. Contributors are Karsten Giese, Guive Khan Mohammad, Katy Lam, Ben Lampert, Kelly Si Miao Liang, Laurence Marfaing, Gordon Mathews, Giles Mohan, Amy Niang, Yoon Jung Park, Alena Thiel, Naima Topkiran.

Download or read book A Convergence of Civilizations written by Youssef Courbage and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are told that Western/Christian and Muslim/Arab civilizations are heading towards inevitable conflict. The demographics of the West remain sluggish, while the population of the Muslim world explodes, widening the cultural gap and all but guaranteeing the outbreak of war. Leaving aside the media's sound and fury on this issue, measured analysis shows another reality taking shape: rapprochement between these two civilizations, benefiting from a universal movement with roots in the Enlightenment. The historical and geographical sweep of this book discredits the notion of a specific Islamic demography. The range of fertility among Muslim women, for example, is as varied as religious behavior among Muslims in general. Whether agnostics, fundamentalist Salafis, or al-Qaeda activists, Muslims are a diverse group that prove the variety and individuality of Islam. Youssef Courbage and Emmanuel Todd consider different degrees of literacy, patriarchy, and defensive reactions among minority Muslim populations, underscoring the spread of massive secularization throughout the Arab and Muslim world. In this regard, they argue, there is very little to distinguish the evolution of Islam from the history of Christianity, especially with Muslims now entering a global modernity. Sensitive to demographic variables and their reflection of personal and social truths, Courbage and Todd upend a dangerous meme: that we live in a fractured world close to crisis, struggling with an epidemic of closed cultures and minds made different by religion.

This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.
