Évolutions sociales, innovations et politiques
Le 8e Congrès de l’Association francophone de psychologie de la santé s’est déroulé à l’Université de Liège, du 15 au 17 décembre 2014. Trois grands thèmes y ont été développés : les évolutions sociales, les innovations et les politiques, dans le domaine de la psychologie de la santé. Ce congrès a également permis la production de cet ouvrage qui se subdivise en sept parties : «Enfant, famille et santé» ; «Psycho-oncologie» ; «Santé au travail» ; «Vieillissement et santé» ; «Maladies chroniques» ; «Risques en santé et éducation thérapeutique» ; «Émotion et santé». Les différents articles présentés rendent compte de la diversité des approches conceptuelles et méthodologiques qui constituent l’identité de la psychologie de la santé francophone.
Le patient et son entourage
Cet ouvrage est issu du 11e Congrès de l’Association Francophone de Psychologie de la Santé qui a été organisé en 2021 par le Laboratoire de Psychopathologie et Processus de Santé (LPPS, UR 4057) de l’Université Paris Cité. La prise en compte de l’entourage des personnes avec des problèmes de santé s’est particulièrement développée ces dix dernières années. Cet ouvrage permet de découvrir la diversité des travaux menés (dans ce cadre) dans les pays Francophones. Il est organisé en cinq sections : les patients et les aidants adultes ; les liens entre professionnels, patients et aidants ; les spécificités des parents ; les particularités des proches mineurs ; et l’importance de la prise en compte des populations vulnérables dans certains contextes, en lien avec la maladie et la place des proches.
Armies and Ecosystems in Premodern Europe
Using the ecosystem concept as his starting point, the author examines the complex relationship between premodern armed forces and their environment at three levels: landscapes, living beings, and diseases. The study focuses on Europe's Meuse Region, well-known among historians of war as a battleground between France and Germany. By analyzing soldiers' long-term interactions with nature, this book engages with current debates about the ecological impact of the military, and provides new impetus for contemporary armed forces to make greater effort to reduce their environmental footprint.
Women and the Practice of Medical Care in Early Modern Europe, 1400-1800
Women have engaged in healing from the beginning of history, often within the context of the home. This book studies the role, contributions and challenges faced by women healers in France, Spain, Italy and England, including medical practice among women in the Jewish and Muslim communities, from the later Middle Ages to approximately 1800.
Dislocating the Orient
While the twentieth century’s conflicting visions and exploitation of the Middle East are well documented, the origins of the concept of the Middle East itself have been largely ignored. With Dislocating the Orient, Daniel Foliard tells the story of how the land was brought into being, exploring how maps, knowledge, and blind ignorance all participated in the construction of this imagined region. Foliard vividly illustrates how the British first defined the Middle East as a geopolitical and cartographic region in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries through their imperial maps. Until then, the region had never been clearly distinguished from “the East” or “the Orient.” In t...
Bonded Labour
Parallel to the abolition of Atlantic slavery, new forms of indentured labour stilled global capitalism's need for cheap, disposable labour. The famous 'coolie trade' - mainly Asian labourers transferred to French and British islands in the Indian Ocean, Australia, Indonesia, South Africa, the Caribbean, the Americas, as well as to Portuguese colonies in Africa - was one of the largest migration movements in global history. Indentured contract workers are perhaps the most revealing example of bonded labour in the grey area between the poles of chattel slavery and 'free' wage labour. This interdisciplinary volume addresses historically and regionally specific cases of bonded labour relations from the 18th century to sponsorship systems in the Arab Gulf States today.
Interrogation in War and Conflict
This edited volume offers a comparative and interdisciplinary analysis of interrogation and questioning in war and conflict in the twentieth century. Despite the current public interest and its military importance, interrogation and questioning in conflict is still a largely under-researched theme. This volume’s methodological thrust is to select historical case studies ranging in time from the Great War to the conflicts in former Yugoslavia, and including the Second World War, decolonization, the Cold War, the ‘Troubles’ in Northern Ireland and international justice cases in The Hague, each of which raises interdisciplinary issues about the role of interrogation. These case-studies we...

Estilo
Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Latino/Latina Studies. Women's Studies. Translated from the Spanish by Jen Hofer. Dolores Dorantes's STYLE is a prose book in which a plural feminine voice narrates the vicissitudes of a war designed to suppress that voice. A voice that represents the war on the Mexico-U.S. border? Guerilla adolescents taking their revenge? Enslaved girls who appear in order to combat a macho presidential figure linked to our current-day Central America? Latin America advancing on a fascist- capitalist government? These are some of the questions that might arise from STYLE. The book was written in 2011, in some dark place in Texas, during the first three months Dorantes was awaiting political asylum.
