Humanitarianism and Mass Migration
The world is witnessing a rapid rise in the number of victims of human trafficking and of migrants—voluntary and involuntary, internal and international, authorized and unauthorized. In the first two decades of this century alone, more than 65 million people have been forced to escape home into the unknown. The slow-motion disintegration of failing states with feeble institutions, war and terror, demographic imbalances, unchecked climate change, and cataclysmic environmental disruptions have contributed to the catastrophic migrations that are placing millions of human beings at grave risk. Humanitarianism and Mass Migration fills a scholarly gap by examining the uncharted contours of mass ...
Cultural Heritage in the European Union
Cultural Heritage in the European Union provides a critical analysis of the laws and policies which address cultural heritage throughout Europe, considering them in light of the current challenges faced by the Union. The volume examines the matrix of organisational and regulatory frameworks concerned with cultural heritage both in the Union and its Members States, as well as their interaction, cross-fertilisation, and possible overlaps. It brings together experts in their respective fields, including not only legal, but also cultural economists, heritage professionals, government representatives, and historians. The diverse backgrounds of the authors offer a cross-disciplinary approach and a variety of views which allows an in-depth scrutinisation of the latest developments pertaining to cultural heritage in Europe.

Angst of Adolescence
Being a good parent is one of the most difficult, yet most rewarding, jobs a person can have in his or her lifetime. Being the parent of a teen is an especially daunting phase of the journey. As parents begin to notice the significant changes that come with adolescence (physical changes brought about by puberty, the constant angst and moodiness, and of course the classic eye-rolling and the I-know-it-all attitude), they wonder just what happened to their happy, sweet, and affectionate young boy or girl. Parents sit by amazed--and often lost and unprepared--as they witness their child morph and mutate into a full-blown pubescent display of emotions. The Angst of Adolescence: How to Parent You...
Le "corps-relation"
Qu'il s'agisse d'architecture, de création artistique, de religion, de politique, d'usages sociaux ; qu'il s'agisse encore de corps réels ou de corps virtuels, de corps en action dans la pratique artistique ou sportive, de corps sensibles face aux émotions et aux œuvres, les articles rassemblés dans ce numéro thématique des CIRHILLa nous invitent à découvrir de nouvelles manières d'appréhender et de comprendre le corps selon trois dimensions : la représentation, l'incarnation et la création. Les représentations sociales et individuelles régissent les relations entre individus, la communication, les courants de pensée, les orientations politiques et, finalement, la vie en société.
L'interculturel

Emotions, Senses and Affects in the Context of Southeast Europe
The papers in this volume continue our focus on emotions of people in Southeast Europe. Grief and sadness are, of course, universal, but they take on different forms of expression. Strong emotional values are often attached to specific foods (e.g. the kurban), usually food is of great importance for labour migrants and in times of crisis. Likewise, dress can be of great emotional significance and value. Wars as well as communist collectivization often lead to emotional consequences such as trauma. Smells and tastes can become expressions of actual or remembered emotions, a fact that can also concern the researchers themselves. Klaus Roth is professor em. at the Institute for European Ethnology of Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich. Milena Benovska is professor em. of the Dept. of Ethnology and Balkan Studies of the South-West University of Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria. Ana Luleva is Assoc. Prof. at the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Studies of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in Sofia.
D'une langue à l'autre... De l'exil à l'intégration ?
À partir des questions touchant à l'apprentissage de la langue, les articles rassemblés dans ce numéro traitent de l'accueil et de la rencontre de l'autre, qu'il soit exilé, réfugié, mineur isolé étranger ou membre d'une minorité. Et pose des questions inévitablement sur sa présence, entre acceptation et rejet. Starting from language learning, this volume deals with issues related to the welcoming and the meeting of the other, whether he is exile, refugee, unaccompanied minor or member of a minority, and raises questions posed by his presence, between acceptance and rejection.
