Left-wing radicalism in the United States: a foreign creed?
Special Issue, “Transatlantica” (journal of American Studies)
This Transatlantica issue will analyze the way in which the construction of radicalism as foreign to US-American identity was received by radicals themselves, to see how they reacted to the branding of their beliefs as un-American, and how they devised counter-discourses in order to Americanize their ideas, sometimes leading to conflict and contradiction. How can the language of patriotism be combined with a belief in internationalism ? What coalitions, what political alliances can be built while maintaining a revolutionary stance ? How can the class struggle be rooted in a discourse on US-American society without succumbing to the sirens of exceptionalism ?

Le séminaire se propose d'interroger les modalités institutionnelles et non institutionnelles de construction et de remise en cause de la domination politique, sociale, économique ou culturelle. Dans cette perspective, elle privilégie l'analyse des relations entre les acteurs, vues comme la matrice même du pouvoir et tente de mettre en évidence l’échange, même déséquilibré, entre ceux qui détiennent le pouvoir et ceux qui le subissent, mais ne sont pas dénués de ressources.
