State Law and Legal Positivism
"This volume formulates the hypothesis of a truly global revolution that reflected a Great Divide between ancient and new legal regimes. The volume brings together several case studies of transition from an ancient to a new legal regime characterized by the positivization of the law. This was an effect of Western imperialism, but also of local elites' conviction that positive law was an efficient instrument of governance. The contributors emphasize the depth and scale of the positivist legal revolution and explore the phenomenon whether it was the outcome of either direct colonialism (Morocco, Egypt, India) or indigenous reformism (Ottoman empire, China, Japan). Contributors are: Léon Buskens, Jean-Philippe Dequen, Baudouin Dupret, Jean-Louis Halpérin, Béatrice Jaluzot, Gianluca Parolin, Avi Rubin, and Tzung-Mou Wu"--
La fracture religieuse vaudoise, 1847-1966
Suite à la révolution radicale de février 1845 et pendant plus d'un siècle, le protestantisme vaudois, religion de la nation, a été déchiré entre une Eglise liée à l'Etat et une seconde qui se voulait libre. Pour la première fois, cet épisode constitutif de l'identité religieuse de la Suisse romande est analysé. L'auteur souligne notamment l'originalité d'une Eglise libre pionnière dans la mise en place de progrès sociaux. Il montre de quelle manière une minorité religieuse active a marqué le paysage religieux, intellectuel et social du canton de Vaud. Nationaux et libristes se trouvèrent divisés jusqu'à ce que le contexte de sécularisation avancée des années 1950 rende possible une négociation à nouveaux frais qui aboutit en 1966. Ce livre passionnant retrace l'histoire contemporaine de la religion en contexte vaudois, mais avec des enjeux bien plus vastes liés entre autres à la laïcité. Il s'impose par les perspectives nouvelles qu'il ouvre.
