  (De-)colonized Childhoods

  Revue d’histoire de l’enfance « irrégulière » | Numéro thématique 22 – 2020

  Over the past several years, historiography that combines Childhood and Youth Studies with Colonial/Postcolonial Studies has demonstrated the importance of the place and role of children and youth in imperial constructions. In 2012, the Revue d’histoire de l’enfance “irrégulière” (RHEI) contributed to the development of this field with its issue on “Displaced Childhoods in Colonial Contexts” (no. 14, 2012). The journal will continue to explore new paths of research on this subject by dedicating issue 22 (2020) to child protection in colonial and post-colonial contexts.

  New dynamics in education in West Africa - from the pre-school to higher education

  L’éducation est souvent présentée comme l’enjeu de l’émancipation et du développement des nations : « éduquer ou périr » écrivait à juste titre l’historien burkinabè Joseph Ki-Zerbo en 1990. Les structures éducatives font face aujourd’hui, en Afrique de l’Ouest sans doute plus qu’ailleurs, à une multitude de pressions indissociables de la réalité selon laquelle nous vivons dans des sociétés gouvernées par l’économie de la connaissance et le développement du capital humain. Les individus, au sein et autour de ces structures, s’inscrivent et inscrivent leurs actions dans des espaces éducatifs mondialisés où existe une concurrence manifeste ou latente.

  L’éducation arabo-islamique en Afrique 

  Institutions, dynamiques et enjeux

  En contexte africain, dans les pays aux sociétés musulmanes, l’éducation arabo-islamique constitue une offre éducative de plus en plus visible, davantage reconnue et mieux discutée dans les espaces publics, notamment depuis le début des années 2000, avec le renouvellement des débats scientifiques et politiques autour de la problématique de la scolarisation universelle.

  Students Movements in French-speaking Africa

  From the independence to the present day

  The french-speaking African Universities were created late and most of them were confronted, since their origin, to a series of problems, both circumstantial and structural. Universities are the site where entry into the ruling class, administration and government, is negociated. Crucible of the future elites, they were also places of protest and resistance. "'Repeated strikes', 'blank years', campus locked by the army, teachers not paid for months... These events were inscribed recurrently in the contemporary agenda of the Black African States" notes Pascal Bianchini. We wish to organize this symposium in an attempt to fill what the researchers calls a "genesis amnesia", a "memory defect". It involves inscribing the university situation of contemporary Africa in the history of the universities, or more generally, in the history of higher education establishments. It also involves reading the history of the African States and politics through the prism of student movements.
