Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le parcours de chercheur de Jean-Pierre Chauveau, aussi foisonnant que cohérent, suffirait à justifier l'hommage d'un livre. Au cours de plus de quarante années de recherches, d'enseignements et de débats scientifiques, il a, dans les échanges directs comme par ses écrits, influencé la façon de penser d'une foule de chercheurs et de praticiens du développement. Ses travaux ont jalonné la réflexion sur des dimensions structurantes des processus de développement et de construction mutuelle de la société civile et de l'État en Afrique sub-saharienne. Loin de la paraphrase ou de l'évocation hagiographique, les contributions réunies dans cet ouvrage proposent des mises en dialogue et en débat des analyses de Jean-Pierre Chauveau, parfois aussi des témoignages d'une rencontre marquante. Écrites par des chercheurs d'horizons divers, elles partagent avec leur inspirateur cette curiosité inépuisable pour la dynamique des sociétés africaines confrontées à la "mécanique" du développement, mais aussi, parfois, un certain émoi pour le temple d'un torero, les rebonds voluptueux d'une rumba ou ceux, plus capricieux, du ballon ovale. Cette suite de conversations avec l'oeuvre de Jean-Pierre Chauveau aborde, sur le registre scientifique, sans négliger celui de la "parenté à plaisanterie" qu'il manie avec art, les principales thématiques qui ont balisé une oeuvre dense et multiforme dans les champs de l'anthropologie historique, politique et économique, des études ivoiriennes et africaines, du développement, de l'innovation et de la gouvernance des ressources naturelles. Plus qu'un simple hommage, cet ouvrage s'adresse aux chercheurs et étudiants en sciences sociales, aux praticiens du développement et aux décideurs politiques que ces questions intéressent.
Book Synopsis Engager l'anthropologie pour le développement et le changement social by : Sten Hagberg
Download or read book Engager l'anthropologie pour le développement et le changement social written by Sten Hagberg and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2013 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present APAD Bulletin contains a selection of papers presented at the APAD 2010 Conference in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, on the theme "Engaging Anthropology for Development and Social Change: Practices, Discourses and Ethics." Anthropological engagements face important challenges at the interface of research and development. The different ways by which anthropologists take on societal problems - either in their research capacity, as development experts, as activists, or as citizen - are inscribed in a longstanding debate. In this APAD Bulletin, the contributors deal with the central questions of how and under which conditions anthropology engages with society. The papers range from epistemological reflections and methodological queries to the anthropology of per diem and of public health, as well as to practical problems confronting anthropologists engaged in development cooperation. [PLEASE NOTE: This volume's Introduction is in English text. The remaining text is French language text only. There is no English translation.] (Series: APAD Bulletin - Vol. 34)

This book was released on 2010 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade West African villages, rural towns, and urban neighbourhoods have experienced changes resulting from democratisation and decentralisation processes. While much hope was invested in decentralisation policies in the 1990s, today there is a need to look at everyday decentralisation practices. In this volume, authors of different scholarly backgrounds focus on political, economic and cultural aspects of decentralisation. By exploring party politics, water provision, schooling, territorial division and cultural understanding the case-studies highlight core stakes and fundamental contradictions of present-day decentralisation in West Africa.

Book Synopsis The Politics of Custom by : John L. Comaroff
Download or read book The Politics of Custom written by John L. Comaroff and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are we to explain the resurgence of customary chiefs in contemporary Africa? Rather than disappearing with the tide of modernity, as many expected, indigenous sovereigns are instead a rising force, often wielding substantial power and legitimacy despite major changes in the workings of the global political economy in the post–Cold War era—changes in which they are themselves deeply implicated. This pathbreaking volume, edited by anthropologists John L. Comaroff and Jean Comaroff, explores the reasons behind the increasingly assertive politics of custom in many corners of Africa. Chiefs come in countless guises—from university professors through cosmopolitan businessmen to subsistence farmers–but, whatever else they do, they are a critical key to understanding the tenacious hold that “traditional” authority enjoys in the late modern world. Together the contributors explore this counterintuitive chapter in Africa’s history and, in so doing, place it within the broader world-making processes of the twenty-first century.
Book Synopsis The Governance of Daily Life in Africa by : Giorgio Blundo
Download or read book The Governance of Daily Life in Africa written by Giorgio Blundo and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anchored in an empirically-grounded anthropology, this book explores the notion of governance in a non-normative way. It describes and analyses the institutional and political processes through which social actors and groups - be they state, private or 'third-sector' - contribute to the provision of public and collective goods or services. The book draws on case studies from Anglophone and Francophone Africa, crossing anthropological traditions that have too often evolved in parallel directions and dealing with a range of topics such as health, water supply, sanitation and waste management, security, humanitarian aid, land issues and decentralisation. Beyond African boundaries, it contributes to current debates about governmentality, public policy, subject making, public/private boundaries, and the role of the state.

Book Synopsis The Devil is Disorder by : Rebecca Lynch
Download or read book The Devil is Disorder written by Rebecca Lynch and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What role might the Devil have in health and illness? The Devil is Disorder explores constructions of the body, health, illness and wider misfortune in a Trinidadian village where evangelical Christianity is growing in popularity. Based on long-term ethnography and locating the village in historical and global context, the book takes a nuanced cosmological approach to situate evangelical Christian understandings as shaping and being shaped by their context and, in the process, shaping individuals themselves. As people move from local to global subjects, health here stretches beyond being a matter of individual bodies and is connected to worldwide flows and networks, spirit entities, and expansive moral orders.
Book Synopsis African Children at Work by : Gerd Spittler
Download or read book African Children at Work written by Gerd Spittler and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2012 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most children in Africa start working from a very early age, helping the family or earning wages. Should this work be abolished, tolerated, or encouraged? Such questions are the subject of much debate. International and national organizations, employers, parents, and children often have diverse opinions and put pressure in different directions. The contributions in this book offer intensive fieldwork and careful analysis of children's activities, considering childhood and family, work and play, work in rural and urban contexts, paths to learning, work and school, and children's rights.

Book Synopsis Révoltes et oppositions dans un régime semi-autoritaire by : Mathieu Hilgers
Download or read book Révoltes et oppositions dans un régime semi-autoritaire written by Mathieu Hilgers and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2010 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les régimes semi-autoritaires ont souvent été décrits sous l'angle de leur organisation, formelle et informelle ; on sait qu'ils autorisent la liberté d'association, le pluralisme politique, que les médias libéralisés y façonnent un espace public et qu'en même temps, des dispositifs non officiels rendent l'alternance pratiquement impossible. La démocratie et ses élections constituent une façade qui confère au régime sa légitimité sans l'exposer au risque de la compétition politique. Ce qu'il importe de documenter plus précisément. aujourd'hui, c'est la manière dont ces transformations institutionnelles (nouveaux pouvoirs locaux, élections, liberté d'association et de la presse...) rendent possibles et façonnent un espace imaginaire et pratique au sein duquel s'élabore une critique du pouvoir établi. La question est donc de savoir comment s'opèrent les oppositions de consciences et de pratiques, les insubordinations et les révoltes vis-à-vis du pouvoir dans un contexte où leur légitimité n'est pas remise en cause mais où elles aboutissent rarement aux résultats espérés. Qu'advient-il des oppositions frustrées ? Comment les transformations institutionnelles, même neutralisées, insufflent-elles un dynamisme politique ? Et quel dynamisme ? L'objectif de cet ouvrage est d'apporter quelques éléments de réponses à ces questions en partant d'études de cas menées au Burkina Faso. Outre une contribution à l'analyse des régimes semi-autoritaires, ce livre propose un aperçu à la fois synthétique et détaillé de la situation politique du pays.
Book Synopsis Anthropology and Development by : Jean-Pierre Oliver De-Sardan
Download or read book Anthropology and Development written by Jean-Pierre Oliver De-Sardan and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book re-establishes the relevance of mainstream anthropological (and sociological) approaches to development processes and simultaneously recognizes that contemporary development ought to be anthropology‘s principal area of study. Professor de Sardan argues for a socio-anthropology of change and development that is a deeply empirical, multidimensional, diachronic study of social groups and their interactions. The Introduction provides a thought-provoking examination of the principal new approaches that have emerged in the discipline during the 1990s. Part I then makes clear the complexity of social change and development, and the ways in which socio-anthropology can measure up to the challenge of this complexity. Part II looks more closely at some of the leading variables involved in the development process, including relations of production; the logics of social action; the nature of knowledge; forms of mediation; and ‘political‘ strategies.

Book Synopsis Les zones critiques d'une anthropologie du contemporain by : Jean-Bernard Hazard, Benoit Kouvouama, Abel Ouédraogo
Download or read book Les zones critiques d'une anthropologie du contemporain written by Jean-Bernard Hazard, Benoit Kouvouama, Abel Ouédraogo and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les écrits réunis dans cet ouvrage visent à scruter l’œuvre de Jean Copans dans une histoire du temps présent (sans présentisme aucun), à comprendre ce qu’il nous dit de l’anthropologie du contemporain, de l’actualité d’une science de l’Homme. Auteur, engagé dans la vie de multiples institutions, pédagogue reconnu, collaborateur, lecteur et contributeur dans la vie des revues (L’Homme, Cahiers d'études africaines ; Politique africaine, Current Anthropology), chercheur français présent sur les lignes de fronts du dialogue avec l’anthropologie nord-américaine, la contribution scientifique de Jean Copans, élève de Georges Balandier et disciple intellectuel de Paul Mercier, est remarquable aussi bien par son implication dans la recherche en train de se faire que par ses lectures et par ses commentaires qui en font à la fois un chroniqueur, un observateur et un analyste du temps présent. Alors que l’anthropologie du contemporain est toujours en quête d’un épistème, l’œuvre de Jean Copans ouvre parfaitement une voie originale et durable, pour comprendre le sens du contemporain en anthropologie. Les contributeurs au volume, auteurs internationalement reconnus, Maurice Aymard, Momar-Coumba Diop, David B. Coplan, Gérald Gaillard, Ingolf Diener, Laurence Espinosa, Frederick Cooper, Paul Diedhiou, Gaye Daffé, Nicolas Monteillet, Cheikh Anta Babou, Pascal Depoorter, Patrice Yengo, Julien Bondaz, Laurence Boutinot, Christophe Baticle, Jean-Bernard Ouédraogo, Benoît Hazard, Abel Kouvouama et Pierre Bouvier proviennent de disciplines variées, de différentes générations de chercheurs et d’horizons géographiques multiples. Au fil des pages se dévoile l’étendue des travaux de Jean Copans, depuis ses premières recherches sur les nationalismes et la « mouridologie », en passant par la classe ouvrière en Afrique (noire), ses engagements sur les sécheresses de 1973, jusqu’à ses réflexions sur la sociologie politique et sur les intellectuels en Afrique. Sans céder au tropisme de l’inventaire, l’ouvrage reprend les observations de ce chroniqueur avisé et analyste pertinent des tumultes du temps présent pour comprendre ses prises de position, parfois hétérodoxes, dans l’exercice d’une anthropologie attentive aux tensions entre l’unité théorique de la discipline, l’éclatement des objets, des terrains, et de ses définitions.
