L'évènement : accident ou promesse ?
La nouvelle matinée-débat de la « Nouvelle revue de psychosociologie »
La vie des sociétés, des groupes et des individus ne se déroule pas selon une trajectoire linéaire et continue. Des ruptures, des changements interviennent soudainement, modifiant le cours de l’histoire et son sens. Cette matinée-débat est consacrée à ces expériences qui font événement, c’est-à-dire qui ne se constituent comme telles que par le choc émotionnel produit par sa soudaineté et son étrangeté. Entre une conception idéaliste de l’événement comme un « miracle », surgi, révélateur d’une vérité nouvelle, à la fois singulière et universelle qui, nous hissant à une plus « haute intensité d’existence » devrait à tout prix être reconnue et préservée ; et une conception tragique qui voit dans l’événement sa propriété désorganisatrice et traumatique, résultat d’une sorte de collapsus entre réalité psychique et réalité sociale ; comment se saisir de ce qui nous saisit et déborde toute intelligibilité, bouleversant nos schèmes de pensée ?

Ética, ambiente e antropologia: até onde podemos ir na investigação em ciências sociais?
III Fórum APA
Existirão limites éticos nas práticas dos antropólogos? Reconhecem-se áreas de actuação e intervenção distintas assim como contextos interdisciplinares que, cada vez mais, marcam as experiências dos antropólogos. Muitos deles, ou quase sempre, são arenas políticas onde se confrontam saberes competitivos, num mundo que não é só de indivíduos humanos, de vivos, do aqui e do agora.

Muslims in the Sahel: stories of jihad
This roundtable aims at confronting the current narratives of the war on terrorism with historical perspectives on past jihad in the Sahel. Case studies include the Mad Mullah in Somaliland, the Mahdi in the Sudan, Rabih in Borno, El Hadj Omar in Senegal and Mali, the Sokoto caliphate in Nigeria and the Macina Empire in Mali. The debate is restricted to uprisings under the banner of Islam and does not cover any war involving Muslims.

African and Gypsy categorizations in France
The process of ethnicization in ordinary discourse
In France, Bulgarian and Romanian migrants identified as “Roma” and usually living in slums are regularly the targets of categorizations, of rejection and of xenophobic violence. Even though other immigrated populations, such as Africans, have been subject to this type of ostracism for some time, the spectre of racism and xenophobia has spread under the effect of the diffusion of a number of political and media discourses. Whether coming from the right or the left of the political spectrum, these differentialist discourses stem from the highest level of the State, and have been regularly relayed by the media, thus legitimizing their presence within the French public space.
