Paradoxes du vote (Les)
Comment voter ? Comment exercer ce droit démocratique fondamental ? Comment le mettre en œuvre concrètement en politique ou dans les associations ? Nous voulons une règle égalitaire : quel mode de scrutin l’assure-t-il ? Nous voulons une règle cohérente : quel mode de scrutin peut garantir que, si les électeurs préfèrent Pierre à Paul et Paul à Jean, ils préféreront Pierre à Jean ? Nous voulons une règle juste : quel mode de scrutin donne une représentation proportionnelle des opinions ? Ce livre explique pourquoi aucun mode de scrutin ne peut respecter toutes ces conditions à la fois. Il nous fait comprendre, sur des exemples réels de notre histoire politique et d’autres pays, ce paradoxe de Churchill : « La démocratie est le pire des régimes politiques... si l’on fait abstraction de tous les autres. » Jean-Louis Boursin, mathématicien, est professeur à l’Institut d’études politiques de Paris.

Jewish Studies on Premodern Periods
This volume examines new developments in the fields of premodern Jewish studies over the last thirty years. The essays in this volume, written by leading experts, are grouped into four overarching temporal areas: the First Temple, Second Temple, Rabbinic, and Medieval periods. These time periods are analyzed through four thematic methodological lenses: the social scientific (history and society), the textual (texts and literature), the material (art, architecture, and archaeology), and the philosophical (religion and thought). Some essays offer a comprehensive look at the state of the field, while others look at specific examples illustrative of their temporal and thematic areas of inquiry. The volume presents a snapshot of the state of the field, encompassing new perspectives, directions, and methodologies, as well as the questions that will animate the field as it develops further. It will be of interest to scholars and students in the field, as well as to educated readers looking to understand the changing face of Jewish studies as a discipline advancing human knowledge
The Tribute of Blood
In The Tribute of Blood Peter M. Beattie analyzes the transformation of army recruitment and service in Brazil between 1864 and 1945, using this history of common soldiers to examine nation building and the social history of Latin America’s largest nation. Tracing the army’s reliance on coercive recruitment to fill its lower ranks, Beattie shows how enlisted service became associated with criminality, perversion, and dishonor, as nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century Brazilian officials rounded up the “dishonorable” poor—including petty criminals, vagrants, and “sodomites”—and forced them to serve as soldiers. Beattie looks through sociological, anthropological, and histori...
