  Cities and cultural circulation in sub-Saharan Africa - 20th-21st centuries

  Actors, modes and impacts

  Cette journée d’étude est l’aboutissement d’un séminaire interdisciplinaire organisé en 2015 et 2016 à l’INALCO. Celui-ci entendait réfléchir à la relation complexe entre des productions artistiques et patrimoniales, des politiques culturelles publiques et l’émergence d’identités sociales, collectives ou individuelles, dans des espaces urbains en Afrique subsaharienne depuis le XIX^e siècle. Cette journée entend approfondir une analyse dialoguée de phénomènes complexes induitspar la notion de « circulation ».

  Central Africa: ressources and armed conflicts

  Cahiers d’Outre-Mer journal

  This issue of Cahiers d’Outre-Mer will explore the mutual impacts of resources and armed conflicts in CAR from a political point of view.  Neither the resources nor their greater or lesser availability constitute, by itself, a sufficient condition to explain the outbreak or continuation of conflicts. Resources, because they impact the balance of powers, are an aspect of armed conflicts, which can be defined as antagonisms between social groups using weapons to prevail over each other. This issue aims at identifying mutual impacts of conflicts and resources in CAR with three possible lines of inquiry: Resources and trajectories of political organizations ; Uses of resources and conflict ; Reconfigurations of resources within conflicts.
