  Conference, symposium - America

  Religions and the presidential elections in the United States

  Catholics have long been an important force in American electoral politics even if they make up 21% of the American population. Could they be, compared to the other religious denominations, the game changer of the next elections ? Despite widespread agreement among scholars that the partisan behavior of Catholics has changed, there is much less consensus on the nature of that change, its permanence, and its causes. This symposium will review the historical patterns of Catholic partisanship and voting behavior, as well as those of the other denominations, discuss major perspectives on electoral change (Republican shift, Hispanic and Asian vote, interreligious alliances) and test there perspectives with the latest survey data.

  Seminar - Religion

  Foucault and the clergy, the self and the field of study

  Social sciences of the clergy in thoughts and deeds

  Cette année, le dernier lundi du mois de 17 h 30 à 19 h, le séminaire des doctorants du CéSoR se penchera sur deux thèmes alternés, l’un à orientation théorique et l’autre à orientation méthodo-épistémologique. Une séance sur deux, le séminaire aura pour thème « Michel Foucault et les sciences sociales du religieux ». Le but de ces séances sera de réfléchir d’un point de vue interdisciplinaire aux divers apports des théories de Foucault, pour la recherche en sciences sociales du religieux aujourd’hui.
