What’s new ?

Produire les communs à travers l’histoire.

Graber, Frédéric et Fabien Locher. 2018. Posséder la nature. Environnement et propriété dans l’histoire. Paris : Éditions Amsterdam.

Pierre-Mathieu Le Bel | 11.07.2019

The environmental and societal problems that humanity faces seem to emphasize always more emphatically the contradictory character of property as an act of exclusion and domination, if one is to respond to challenges of equity and mutual aid. On the contrary, it is important to try to make property coherent with a spirit of cohabitation. Posséder la nature adopts this aim. It offers a selection of articles or chapters unpublished in French, chosen on the basis of their stance [...]

À quoi bon contester les nouvelles technologies ?

Baqué, Philippe. 2017. Homme augmenté, humanité diminuée : d’Alzheimer au transhumanisme, la science au service d’une idéologie hégémonique et mercantile. Marseille : Agone, et Jarrige, François. 2016. Technocritiques : du refus des machines à la contestation des technosciences. Paris : La Découverte.

Libero Zuppiroli | 05.07.2019

Our century is said to be the century of technological innovation. However, many publications contest the benefits of technology ! Has this contestation any significant impact in such a context ? What purpose does it serve ? Francois Jarigge’s book is an attempt to respond to this question by examining the history of technical discourse, and Philippe Baqué’s book by analysing the promises of « perfect health ». The critiques of technology take much time to produce an impact, [...]

Chronotopies ou temps unique ?

Rancière, Jacques. 2018. Les temps modernes. Art, temps, politiques. Paris : La Fabrique.

Nathalie Blanc | 27.06.2019

The book repeats four lectures, given in several countries of former Yugoslavia, as well as in the United States, between 2014 and 2015, which allowed the author to rethink time as a (class) conflict in the distribution of life forms. The first lecture, or essay, entitled Time, Narrative, and Politics, questions the narratives of time and the politics of their formulation. The author opposes to the great narratives constructed by Marx and his heirs, a messianic time of which [...]

Les pratiques touristiques : transgression normalisée ou norme transgressive ? Peer review

Lauriane Létocart | 27.06.2019

By examining the Baltic coastline of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, a culturally and spatially highly standardized tourist area, this paper aims at analysing the relationship between norms and tourism practices. Spatial planning, like boundaries between nudist and non-nudist beaches, or those tolerating pets, demonstrates the public stakeholders’ intention to regulate tourism practices, which therefore proves the political dimension of norm. If German tourists are aware of these spatial norms, the latter appear more formal than efficient. Indeed, tourism practices tend to [...]

Les gentrifieurs à l’assaut du périurbain. Peer review

Hervé Marchal et Jean-Marc Stébé | 19.06.2019

The article proposes to analyze the new forms that gentrification takes in periurban territories of contemporary France. Our intention is to look beyond the city centers and suburbs in order to report the new forms of gentrification and thus to bring new elements to research, by articulating the notions of gentrification and peri-urbanization. Based on a study carried out during the 2016-2018 period in the urban area of Nancy, we will specify the sociological outlines of the gentrification of [...]

Tourisme gay et normativités sexuelles. Peer review

Berlin, destination hors normes ?

Florent Chossière | 07.06.2019

This paper aims at understanding the mechanisms behind Berlin’s attractiveness for gay tourists. With a focus on urban events and their representations, the article investigates the role taken by sexual normativities in the shaping of a tourist destination. The city positions itself not only as beyond heteronormativity, especially as it is considered a gay homeland, but also as beyond other normativities which marginalize some sexual practices, like the one linked to leather and fetish culture, for example. This paper [...]

La puissance de la non-fiction créative au service d’un féminisme balbutiant.

Mencé-Caster, Corinne. 2018. Le talisman de la présidente. Paris : Écriture.

Christophe Premat | 06.06.2019

The purpose of the article is to analyze the characteristics of an experience of institutional violence suffered by a woman who became president of the University of the West Indies and Guiana. The use of creative non-fiction allows to denounce the systematic exclusion of women from the spheres of power in the West Indies. [...]

Dans le brouillard du projet urbain. Peer review

Observer sa ville comme habitant.

Américo Mariani | 31.05.2019

Cet article donne à voir une étape d’une recherche en cours sur la transformation de l’espace et les possibilités de subjectivation politique qu’elle donne ou pas. Située à Toulouse, elle prend place dans un moment particulier d’intensification du projet urbain, dans une ville déjà profondément marquée par les transformations. Partant du dit « projet urbain », l’auteur prend acte d’une dissolution de son objet, la Ville, dans la multiplicité des expériences qui constituent l’urbain. Commence alors une tentative méthodologique [...]

Le concept de rythme au coeur d’un tournant esthétique de la pensée et des politiques de la ville. Peer review

Jean-Louis Genard | 30.05.2019

In many respects, the city's policies and practices are now experiencing what could be called an "aesthetic shift". Most of the time, this turning point is the subject of analyses focused on one or other of its components, such as the rise of the creative city's standards or attractiveness, but without their aesthetic significance, in the full sense of the term, which refers to aesthesis, to sensitivity. By focusing on the concept of rhythm, which is also gaining momentum [...]
