  Populism: Theoretical Confusion, Contexts of proliferation and Comparative Experiences

  Although most researchers unanimously agreed on the modernity of populism, this should in no way discourage us from further examining the implications of this phenomenon and its origins in ancient history. The search for the historical roots of populism, that some relate to early times, is only an attempt to establish its origin. However, the subsequent transformations of populism in meaning and practice have made it difficult to discern its limits. Apparently, this critical approach seems to be inaccessible due to many considerations, including the transformations of populism in terms of concept and practice to the point of almost losing its first forms.  According to this approach, it is more likely that real beginnings of populism coincided with the emergence of modern democracy showing signs of deficiency.

  The historical anthropology of the nomadic arts - ethnoscenology seminar

  Séminaire d'ethnoscénologie

  Ce séminaire entend étudier les formes performatives, spectaculaires et à dimension dialogique forte, qui s’articulent autour d’un axe non seulement technique, entendu dans la perspective maussienne, mais aussi et surtout esthétique : cirque, mime, danse, théâtre, arts martiaux. Par sa perspective éthico-pratique, l’anthropologie théâtrale a montré comment l’artiste de spectacle vivant et ses créations se caractérisent par leur « nomadisme ». Or, il arrive que la liberté de créer des œuvres, éphémères par nature, se paie au prix de l’absence d’établissement fixe, de la circulation forcée, de l’exil, mais aussi au bénéfice de la rencontre, du devenir autre, de la connaissance, du partage et du métissage. Le séminaire s’attachera d’abord à historiciser le nomadisme des arts du spectacle vivant, c’est-à-dire les processus négociés par l’artiste pour acclimater, adapter voire réinventer selon les circonstances, ses techniques du corps et de transmission, ses esthétiques et ses sensibilités.
