    The processes of politico-religious assignation in the Syrian conflict

    Cette journée d'étude sera consacrée à la violence des processus d’assignation politico-religieux dans le conflit syrien. L’État syrien, ainsi que différentes factions du camp de l’opposition ont dès le début de la révolte en 2011 entrepris de mobiliser les individus sur la base de leurs identités confessionnelles et/ou ethniques. Observable chez les « minoritaires » alaouites, druzes et chrétiens sommés de soutenir le régime de Bashar al-Assad, cette politique a également des conséquences délétères au sein de la « majorité » sunnite. Ne se cantonnant pas au domaine de la mobilisation politico-militaire, elle s’accompagne de la tentative d’imposer par la contrainte une réforme morale de chaque individu, ainsi qu’une homogénéisation des croyances, des pratiques et des manières d’être « citoyen », « musulman », « alaouite »,  etc.

How scholars, communication professionals, social activists, journalists, political, industrial and economic stakeholders are involved in the social transformation that accompanies the keen interest of religions for digital technologies and how to understand these distinct but interrelated changes?
