Le tournant global et la révolution numérique interrogent la raison d’être d’une école en crise de sens. Ces mutations questionnent autant la production des savoirs pour penser le monde que l’éducation au monde que l’École dispense. La notion même de savoir est remise en cause par la culture numérique. La forme scolaire n’a pas toujours existé : elle est une configuration historique particulière. L’École, si elle a un début, peut donc avoir une fin ! À l’ère du Savoir-Relation, faudra-t-il des robots à la place des profs ? Le lieu scolaire doit-il disparaître ? Et si la fin de l’École était une opportunité pour créer de nouveaux espaces, instaurer de nouvelles relations enseignants/enseignés, réconcilier les partenaires, enseigner autrement et recréer le bonheur d’apprendre, en bref, refonder vraiment notre rapport au savoir ?
Could policies aimed at preventing radicalisation in Europe end up undermining the very social cohesion they aim to preserve? Since the mid-2000s, a growing number of European governments have broadened the scope of counter-terrorism, making it an issue that needs to be tackled by society as a whole. This report considers the effects of such policies in the education sector through a review of the existing literature on the subject. It begins by considering the issues facing educators and students and their families, and goes on to show how counter-radicalisation policies make contradictory demands on educators, asking them to build social cohesion and resilience while at the same time requi...
The term 'Popular Music' has traditionally denoted different things in France and Britain. In France, the very concept of 'popular' music has been fiercely debated and contested, whereas in Britain and more largely throughout what the French describe as the 'Anglo-saxon' world 'popular music' has been more readily accepted as a description of what people do as leisure or consume as part of the music industry, and as something that academics are legitimately entitled to study. French researchers have for some decades been keenly interested in reading British and American studies of popular culture and popular music and have often imported key concepts and methodologies into their own work on ...
An ethical solution to the current health, ecological and financial problems we face is to mobilize our responsibility by overcoming our duality with the environment. It calls for changes in attitudes and behaviors that are not self-evident and can be facilitated by specific learning. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) are increasingly used in professional settings, particularly in therapy, because their effectiveness in terms of change is increasingly supported by scientific evidence. This book presents a detailed program aimed at developing an ethics of responsibility known as Mindfulness- or MeditationBased Ethics of Responsibility (MBER). It combines theoretical explanations, exercises and secular meditations to propose (rather than impose) ethical guidelines, accompanying participants in identifying their own ethical values, acting in accordance with them, while weakening their dual functionings.
Why does Islamophobia dominate public debate in France? Islamophobia in France is rising, with Muslims subjected to unprecedented scrutiny of what they wear, eat and say. Championed by Marine Le Pen and drawing on the French colonial legacy, France's 'new secularism' gives racism a respectable veneer. Jim Wolfreys exposes the dynamic driving this intolerance: a society polarized by inequality, and the authoritarian neoliberalism of the French political mainstream. This officially sanctioned Islamophobia risks going unchallenged. It has divided the traditional anti-racist movement and undermined the left's opposition to bigotry. Wolfreys deftly unravels the problems facing those trying to confront today's rise in racism. Republic of Islamophobia illuminates both the uniqueness of France's anti-Muslim backlash and its broader implications for the West.
This book, the first on the growing phenomenon of private full-time K-12 Muslim schools in France, investigates whether these schools participate in the communautarisme (or ethnic/cultural separatism) that Muslims are often accused of or if their founding is a sign of integration, given that most of private education in France is subsidized by the government. Is Islam compatible with the West? This study proposes an answer to this question through the lens of Muslim education in France, adding to our understanding of the so-called resurgence of religion following the demise of the secularization theory and shedding new light on religion’s place in the West and of Islam in diasporic contexts.
La chanson engagée a-t-elle encore un sens au XXIème siècle ? Peut-on concilier critique sociale et société du spectacle ? Que vivent les spectateurs pendant les concerts ? Faut-il chanter les causes perdues ? Il y a une spécificité de la chanson sociale française. Bernard Lavilliers, icône spectaculaire du moderne, en est l'un des principaux représentants. L’artiste propose dans ses concerts un espace politique alternatif qui se construit autant par les mots que par la musique. « Qui aime les mots baise avec la musique » chante l’artiste. À partir d’enquêtes sur les publics, l’ouvrage, qui renouvelle la sociologie politique de la musique, interroge ce qui se joue entre un artiste et ses publics.
La violence fait partie de notre vie, qu’elle soit d’ordre économique, politique, familial ou qu’elle soit présente dans certaines formes au travail. Mais si ces violences sont aujourd’hui étudiées ou dénoncées, d’autres restent méconnues. C’est le cas du harcèlement entre élèves. Le collège correspond au passage à l’adolescence. Accéder à ce statut n’est pas simple. L’adolescent doit gérer la puberté, la mutation physique et psychologique, la transformation de son corps d’enfant, ses premières amours, ses relations avec les autres dont ses parents. Pendant cette période, il devient particulièrement vulnérable, car en plein changement identitaire. Il a...
This volume, the first sustained critical work on the French political philosopher Étienne Balibar, collects essays by sixteen prominent philosophers, psychoanalysts, anthropologists, sociologists, and literary critics who each identify, define, and explore a central concept in Balibar’s thought. The result is a hybrid lexicon-engagement that makes clear the depth and importance of Balibar’s contribution to the most urgent topics in contemporary thought. The book shows the continuing vitality of materialist thought across the humanities and social sciences and will be fundamental for understanding the philosophical bases of the contemporary left critique of globalization, neoliberalism, and the articulation of race, racism, and economic exploitation. Contributors: Emily Apter, Étienne Balbar, J. M. Bernstein, Judith Butler, Monique David-Ménard, Hanan Elsayed, Didier Fassin, Stathis Gourgouris, Bernard E. Harcourt, Jacques Lezra, Patrice Maniglier, Warren Montag, Adi Ophir, Bruce Robbins, Ann Laura Stoler, Gary Wilder
