Bibliodiversité
Inspiré de la notion de biodiversité, le terme « bibliodiversité » fait référence à un ensemble de publications variées dans le paysage éditorial, représentatives d’un système culturel équilibré où toutes les voix peuvent s’exprimer. Aujourd’hui, à l’heure de l’uniformisation des médias et de la concentration des secteurs de l’édition et de la librairie, les éditeurs indépendants entendent bien maintenir la diversité culturelle. S’inspirant de son propre parcours, l’auteure, féministe radicale australienne et éditrice indépendante engagée, fait ici le lien entre l’évolution de la place de la femme dans notre société et la bibliodiversité, entre l’oppression des femmes et celle des créations à la marge, dédaignées par les poids lourds de l’édition papier et numérique. Elle s’attache à mettre en avant les talents d’innovation des petites structures indépendantes, développant une nouvelle forme d’« écologie de l’édition » à l’écart des grands groupes, vers une véritable bibliodiversité du XXIe siècle.

"Coquery-Vidrovitch's book is not merely good; it's marvellous. It represents the finest product of the Annales tradition of structural history."—Immanuel Wallerstein
La sociologie francophone en Afrique
Entre le moment où Boubakar Ly, le grand sociologue sénégalais dont le témoignage figure en exergue de cet ouvrage, suivait les cours de Georges Gurvitch en Sorbonne, et celui que nous vivons, plus de cinquante ans se sont écoulés. Un laps de temps suffisamment long pour que l'on se réinterroge de nouveau, comme l'avait fait Gurvitch, dans La vocation actuelle de la sociologie, sur les enjeux de la sociologie, sans se limiter, ainsi qu'on le faisait dans les années cinquante du siècle dernier, à l'espace occidental. Car la sociologie aujourd'hui n'existe pas uniquement dans celui-ci. Elle a maintenant droit de cité en Afrique. En dépit de tous les obstacles liés d'abord à la pÃ...
Historical Dictionary of the Republic of Cameroon
Cameroon is a land of much promise, but a land of unfulfilled promises. It has the potential to be an economically developed and democratic society but the struggle to live up to its potential has not gone well. Since independence there have been only two presidents of Cameroon; the current one has been in office since 1982. Endowed with a variety of climates and agricultural environments, numerous minerals and substantial forests, and a dynamic population, this is a country that should be a leader of Africa. Instead, we find a country almost paralyzed by corruption and poor management, a country with a low life expectancy and serious health problems, and a country from which the most talent...
New Francophone African and Caribbean Theatres
John Conteh-Morgan explores the multiple ways in which African and Caribbean theatres have combined aesthetic, ceremonial, experimental, and avant-garde practices in order to achieve sharp critiques of the nationalist and postnationalist state and to elucidate the concerns of the francophone world. More recent changes have introduced a transnational dimension, replacing concerns with national and ethnic solidarity in favor of irony and self-reflexivity. New Francophone African and Caribbean Theatres places these theatres at the heart of contemporary debates on global cultural and political practices and offers a more finely tuned understanding of performance in diverse diasporic networks.
Land, Law and Politics in Africa
This book offers a series of new studies on the dynamics of political and legal culture as well as of conflict management in contemporary Africa, taking inspiration from and honoring the scholarly contributions and impact of Prof. Gerti Hesseling (1946-2009) in African Studies.
Democracy and Africanness
This book examines the governance and democratization process in Africa, its history, trends, and prospects. Written by a diverse panel of experts, the book provides an intersectional and interdisciplinary analysis of Africa’s democratic environment. Chapters cover topics such as the evolution of democracy in Africa, electoral politics, gender, activism, human rights, and cultural diversity. Critically assessing the fit of democracy for African countries and offering strategies for the Africanization of democracy, this volume will be important for researchers and students interested in African politics, postcolonial theory, democracy, and governance.
