Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By combining an ethnographic study of youth with an analysis of the local state in the making, this research monograph introduces the perspective of »meandering lives« to grasp being young and growing up in the Guéckédou borderland, a remote space approximately 700 kilometers southeast of Conakry, Guinea's capital. This history-sensitive perspective represents a fruitful lens to not only depict youth but to also draw a nuanced picture of the functioning of the state in Guinea.

Download or read book Sports in Postcolonial Worlds written by Nicolas Bancel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores several cultural and historical paths intertwined in the genesis and development of sport and physical activities within colonial and postcolonial contexts. As far as youth organizations and Western-based sports are concerned, the Independencies political split needs to be reconsidered, from a cultural perspective with practices overlapping spatial, chronological and epistemological borders. When looking at the variety of practices, the colonial legacies and the ensuing migration journeys through a global perspective, there is a need to understand the diverse ways of composing and building the postcolonial sport worlds. Multiculturalism (South Africa, France, Algeria), transnational journeys (Pacific Islands), rebuilding of national identities through sporting institutions (Ireland, West Africa), racialization of the society (Rwanda, South Africa), gender control (from the West-East to the North-South gap), sportization of traditional/old games (Americas), and so on. Following the various studies shaping this book, the ambivalence of sporting and physical activities’ paths comes up. It is apparent these trajectories have generated a mixed feeling of adhesion and repulsion towards Western hegemonies in postcolonial societies.

Download or read book L'Afrique des générations written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2012 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "En raison, notamment, de leur poids démographique et de leur volonté de revendiquer un statut de citoyens actifs, les jeunes sont apparus de façon spectaculaire dans l'espace public africain depuis les années 1990. Bien qu'ils soient un élément essentiel à la compréhension des dynamiques sociales face à l'érosion des engagements de l'État et aux transformations de la famille, il apparaît incontournable d'étudier les jeunes en relation avec les autres groupes d'âge. C'est ainsi que l'analyse des dynamiques intergénérationnelles en Afrique prend toute son importance afin de rendre compte des changements qui ont cours depuis la moitié du XXe siècle. Ce livre s'inscrit donc dans une tendance récente de la recherche qui montre un regain d'intérêt pour l'étude des générations et de l'intergénérationnel en Afrique. La notion de génération n'est toutefois pas nouvelle dans l'analyse des dynamiques sociales en Afrique, notamment si l'on se réfère à l'écrit fondateur de Karl Mannheim, Le problème des générations (1928), dans lequel il invite à mettre en évidence "tous les changements dus à la dynamique historico-sociale" pour bien cerner les éléments de changements liés au facteur de génération. La perspective adoptée dans ce livre est de voir comment les apports intergénérationnels se modifient, comment la légitimité des aînés peut être rediscutée et comment les jeunes tentent d'échapper aux difficultés et aux contraintes. Ce regard a conduit les auteurs à trouver de nouveaux lieux pour observer les jeunes mais aussi des espaces communs aux différentes générations. Dans cet ouvrage, ils mettent en avant les continuités et les discontinuités des lieux de conflits et de négociations, ainsi que les stratégies de coopération qui marquent les rapports entre les générations. Pour cela, ils rendent compte des dynamiques intergénérationnelles, tant à l'échelle macro (société civile) qu'à l'échelle micro (espaces privés, tranches de vie), et croisent divers thèmes dans une optique pluridisciplinaire. Les contributions sont le fruit de recherches menées sur le terrain dans différents pays."--P. [4] of cover.

Download or read book Fuzzy States and Complex Trajectories written by Groupe de reflexion sur l'approche biographique (Paris) and published by INED. This book was released on 2009 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individuals experience a variety of different events throughout their life-course - birth, marriage, change of employment, school graduation, etc. - which sometimes occur in rapid succession, and whose timing and definition may seem unclear. Now that survey questionnaires are able to record individual trajectories in greater depth, changes of status can no longer be viewed simply as separate events, but involve a transition process of variable duration. The observation, modelling and interpretation of these fuzzy thresholds between two situations constitute a dynamic field of research in the social sciences. The authors of this manual have pooled their experience of event-history data collection to address the questions of "focus", i.e. finding the right observation distance to grasp the complexity of life histories, and of time, i.e. choosing the right timescale of detailed information collection. After analysing the links between quantitative and qualitative data, addressing the distinction between facts and perceptions, and deconstructing analysis data categories, they offer a number of conceptual and methodological solutions. This study extends beyond the scope of specific examples to develop a major empirical approach in a still largely unexplored area. This book targets a much broader audience than the community of demographers alone. It concerns everyone in the field of social sciences who, at one moment or another, is required to organize data collection in the field, either for research or practical purposes. The Groupe de réflexion sur l'approche biographique (GRAB) brings together researchers and academics from a range of institutions (INED, IRD, CNRS, etc.) working in a variety of disciplines: demography, geography, sociology, economics, etc. It is building on the experience acquired through 25 event-history surveys conducted to date in France, Africa and Latin America.

Download or read book The Scramble for Europe written by Stephen Smith and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the harrowing situation of migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean in rubber dinghies to the crisis on the US-Mexico border, mass migration is one of the most urgent issues facing our societies today. At the same time, viable solutions seem ever more remote, with the increasing polarization of public attitudes and political positions. In this book, Stephen Smith focuses on ‘young Africa’ – 40 per cent of its population are under fifteen – anda dramatic demographic shift. Today, 510 million people live inside EU borders, and 1.25 billion people in Africa. In 2050, 450 million Europeans will face 2.5 billion Africans – five times their number. The demographics are implacable. The scramble for Europe will become as inexorable as the ‘scramble for Africa’ was at the end of the nineteenth century, when 275 million people lived north and only 100 million lived south of the Mediterranean. Then it was all about raw materials and national pride, now it is about young Africans seeking a better life on the Old Continent, the island of prosperity within their reach. If Africa’s migratory patterns follow the historic precedents set by other less developed parts of the world, in thirty years a quarter of Europe’s population will beAfro-Europeans. Addressingthe question of how Europe cancope with an influx of this magnitude, Smith argues for a path between the two extremes of today’s debate. He advocatesmigratory policies of ‘good neighbourhood’ equidistant from guilt-ridden self-denial and nativist egoism. This sobering analysis of the migration challenges we now face will be essential reading for anyone concerned with the great social and political questions of our time.

Download or read book Cultures citadines dans l'océan Indien occidental (XVIIIe - XXIe siècles) written by Faranirina V. Rajaonah and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le caractère cosmopolite des villes en fait des points d'observation privilégiée des sociétés pluriculturelles du carrefour de l'océan Indien occidental. De différentes disciplines, les auteurs étudient ici, sur le temps long (XVIIIe-XXIe siècles) et à partir de sources variées (écrites, orales et matérielles), les rencontres qui ont contribué à la formation de "cultures des franges" aux Mascareignes, à Madagascar, dans l'archipel des Comores, au Kenya, en Tanzanie, au Mozambique. Ainsi, l'aménagement des espaces de vie renvoie à des métissages entre des ressources de l'ici et de l'ailleurs : l'Occident ou d'autres horizons du monde indianocéanique. Des processus comparables d'hybridation sont encore perceptibles dans les domaines de la langue, de la musique, de la danse ou du politique dans des cités mieux connectées que les campagnes à l'étranger, volontiers associé à la modernité. Dans cet entrecroisement des cultures, la circulation ne se fait jamais dans un seul sens, même en situation coloniale. A l'occasion de ces échanges, certains individus et groupes sociaux, étrangers ou du cru, jouent le rôle de passeurs et contribuent au dynamisme de leurs cités. A côté des élites, des jeunes de divers milieux diffusent également les innovations. L'inventivité de la jeunesse peut d'ailleurs infléchir le cours de la politique. Grâce à ces intermédiaires, les cités renforcent leur statut de lieux de pouvoir. Mais, autres médiateurs, des gens de lettres dénoncent, à travers des romans et des poèmes, les dangers de la ville et la précarité des citadins les plus démunis. En effet, malgré des moments sous le signe de l'interculturalité ou du partage, ainsi lors de fêtes, les sociétés urbaines, traversées de multiples clivages, connaissent des tensions. En témoignent des conflits autour du contrôle des informations et de l'occupation des lieux de culte ou la concurrence entre les défenseurs des croyances du terroir et les prédicateurs des nouvelles Eglises. Mais les nouveautés sont aussi utilisées dans les stratégies personnelles comme ressources pour renégocier sa place au sein de la communauté et faire son chemin dans la complexité des mondes urbains.
