Book Synopsis Approche géopolitique de la presse écrite francophone des pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest by : Florence Minery
Download or read book Approche géopolitique de la presse écrite francophone des pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest written by Florence Minery and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 1344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le paysage médiatique des pays ouest africains francophones a connu ces dix dernières années de profondes mutations. Passant du "média-unique" à un pluralisme effréné, le secteur médiatique accompagne de près l'évolution politique de ces pays. Cette étude analyse ces deux évolutions parallèles qui sont intimement liées du fait que les médias sont au coeur des rivalités de pouvoir et des débats qu'ils suscitent. La première partie dresse un état des lieux des médias, analyse l'attitude des lecteurs et des électeurs à l'égard des journaux et décrit l'organisation des campagnes médiatiques, notamment leur régulation. La seconde partie développe les facteurs explicatifs de l'état de la presse, qui sont d'ordre géographique, historique et politique. La situation géopolitique des états d'Afrique de l'Ouest est révélée dans la troisième partie par les représentations politiques et les luttes de pouvoirs qui animent le débat national commenté par la presse. A cet effet, nous utilisons la presse comme outil d'analyse géopolitique, ce qui permet de donner la parole aux témoins et acteurs directs de l'actualité qui marque la politique de ces pays africains. L'analyse de contenu des journaux pendant les échéances électorales illustre le rôle et la place de la presse dans le débat national et le paysage politique. Ainsi, nous constatons que le défi de l'indépendance formelle des médias reste à relever et qu'il doit passer par le respect de la déontologie et l'autonomie financière. Dans ces démocraties émergentes, les échéances électorales constituent des étapes déterminantes pour le processus de démocratisation, elles créent à la fois de fortes attentes et de profondes craintes.
Book Synopsis Presse et démocratie en Afrique francophone by : Marie-Soleil Frère
Download or read book Presse et démocratie en Afrique francophone written by Marie-Soleil Frère and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2000 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au début des années 90, les transitions démocratiques africaines ont bouleversé la conception, l'organisation et l'expression du pouvoir sur le continent. Rompant avec des décennies de monopole étatique sur les médias, la nouvelle presse privée a accompagné ce processus, se posant en témoin privilégié, mais aussi en juge et en actrice des mutations politiques. Que disent ceux à qui l'on donne accès à la parole après des dizaines d'années de régime autoritaire ? Comment s'expriment-ils ? Quelles sont leurs préoccupations ? Bref : qui prend la parole, pour dire quoi et comment, lorsque la démocratie vient bouleverser les règles du jeu politique et discursif ? Telle est l'interrogation fondamentale qui est à l'origine de cet ouvrage. Le Bénin, petit pays côtier, a eu le privilège de servir de " laboratoire démocratique " : inventeur de la formule de la Conférence nationale, il a bénéficié d'une attention internationale considérable et s'est trouvé constitué en exemple. A l'opposé, le Niger, territoire immense et enclavé, a connu une transition politique mouvementée, émaillée de nombreuses violences, pâle copie du modèle béninois. Les journalistes de la nouvelle presse privée ont commenté, analysé, critiqué cette transition démocratique ainsi que leur propre rôle dans cette nouvelle distribution du pouvoir. Toutefois, les pesanteurs et contraintes historiques, socioculturelles, politiques et économiques ont limité la portée de leurs voix. En laissant une large place à leurs propos, ce livre permettra de répercuter plus amplement les discours foisonnants et souvent prémonitoires qui se déploient dans les capitales africaines mais restent trop souvent ignorés à cause de leur caractère " informel ". Comme il existe une économie " informelle " en Afrique, se développe également un débat politique " de la débrouille " qui ne s'étale dans aucune revue, ne s'introduit dans aucun colloque international, mais reste indispensable pour qui veut comprendre les enjeux actuels des transitions démocratiques.
Book Synopsis Philosophy in a Time of Terror by : Giovanna Borradori
Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.

Book Synopsis Soldiers in Revolt by : Maggie Dwyer
Download or read book Soldiers in Revolt written by Maggie Dwyer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soldiers in Revolt examines the understudied phenomenon of military mutinies in Africa. Through interviews with former mutineers in Sierra Leone, Burkina Faso, and The Gambia, the book provides a unique and intimate perspective on those who take the risky decision to revolt. This view from the lower ranks is key to comprehending the internal struggles that can threaten a military's ability to function effectively. Maggie Dwyer's detailed accounts of specific revolts are complemented by an original dataset of West African mutinies covering more than fifty years, allowing for the identification of trends. Her book shows the complex ways mutineers often formulate and interpret their grievances against a backdrop of domestic and global politics. Just as mutineers have been influenced by the political landscape, so too have they shaped it. Mutinies have challenged political and military leaders, spurred social unrest, led to civilian casualties, threatened peacekeeping efforts and, in extreme cases, resulted in international interventions. Soldiers in Revolt offers a better understanding of West African mutinies and mutinies in general, valuable not only for military studies but for anyone interested in the complex dynamics of African states.
Download or read book Political Armies written by Kees Koonings and published by Zed Books. This book was released on 2002-05 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the withdrawal of armies from direct rule in most countries herald an end to their role as actors in domestic politics? Has political intervention by the military been superseded? This comparative examination of the politicized armed forces looks at * the consequences of military rule for nation building and economic development * the effects of the passing of the Cold War and the rise of globalization on the political role of the military * the role of political armies in the consolidation of civil politics and democratic governance * the lessons for policy makers in global governance and post-conflict reconstruction The contributors build on successive theories about the role of the military in politics and look to the future. The most threatening scenario may be a proliferation of armed actors and the rise of privatized forces of law and order.

Download or read book Interpretation written by James Nolan and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades the explosive growth of globalization and regional integration has fuelled parallel growth in multilingual conferences. Although conference interpreting has come of age as a profession, interpreter training programs have had varied success, pointing to the need for an instructional manual which covers the subject comprehensively. This book seeks to fill that need by providing a structured syllabus and an overview of interpretation accompanied by exercises in various aspects of the art. It is meant to serve as a practical guide for interpreters and as a complement to interpreter training programs in the classroom and online, particularly those for students preparing for conference interpreting in international governmental and business settings. This expanded second edition includes additional exercises and provides direct links to a variety of web-based resources and practice speeches, also including additional language combinations.
Book Synopsis Understanding Civil War: Africa by : Paul Collier
Download or read book Understanding Civil War: Africa written by Paul Collier and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is part of a two volume set which builds upon previous World Bank research into the causes and characteristics of civil war onset, particularly the model developed by Paul Collier and Anke Hoeffler regarding the relationship between violent political conflict and economic development. This volume considers the variables identified in the Collier-Hoeffler model and applies them to a set of case studies from a range of African countries, and then goes on to trace the process of conflict escalation in order to draw conclusions as to why civil war is likely to occur. The publication seeks to advance theoretical and empirical knowledge of civil war, in order to help further the objective of developing appropriate policy interventions. Another volume with case studies from a range of non-African countries is available separately (ISBN 0821360493).

Book Synopsis Revisiting Moroccan Migrations by : Mohammed Berriane
Download or read book Revisiting Moroccan Migrations written by Mohammed Berriane and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the 20th century, Morocco has become one of the world’s major emigration countries. But since 2000, growing immigration and settlement of migrants from sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and Europe confronts Morocco with an entirely new set of social, cultural, political and legal issues. This book explores how continued emigration and increasing immigration is transforming contemporary Moroccan society, with a particular emphasis on the way the Moroccan state is dealing with shifting migratory realities. The authors of this collective volume embark on a dialogue between theory and empirical research, showcasing how contemporary migration theories help understanding recent trends in Moroccan migration, and, vice-versa, how the specific Moroccan case enriches migration theory. This perspective helps to overcome the still predominant Western-centric research view that artificially divide the world into ‘receiving’ and ‘sending’ countries and largely disregards the dynamics of and experiences with migration in countries in the Global South. This book was previously published as a special issue of The Journal of North African Studies.
