  Counter-enlightenment, Revolution and Dissent

  Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence / PJCV

  Reason and rational modes of thought are often seen as the bastion against the acceleration of conflict into violence and the goal of the Enlightenment tradition was, in a large part, to liberate individuals from those irrational superstitions and beliefs which were at the base of these conflicts. However, many critiques of the Enlightenment project, both historical and more contemporary, see the imposition of universal reason as itself a form violence, ignoring claims of comprehensive traditions, identity and history on the individual. The aim of this special edition of the Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence is to examine possible counter-enlightenment approaches to violence, conflict and conflict resolution.

  Swiss politics, Swiss expertise and Switzerland in the imagination

  Cohesion and disparity of the Swiss corpus in the 18th century

  Le sentiment d’unité s’éprouve et se manifeste en Suisse bien avant à la Constitution fédérale de 1848, qui assure l’unification politique du pays. Au XVIII^e siècle en particulier, il est attesté par de nombreuses pratiques, sociales et lettrées, qui tendent à faire de la Suisse un espace national cohérent. L’ambivalence et la tension entre unité et diversité, entre cohésion et concurrence, entre le sentiment d’appartenance nationale et la défense obstinée des souverainetés cantonales, seront au cœur des questionnements du colloque.
