Des noms d'hommes sur les plaques à tous les coins de rues. Des loisirs qui profitent en priorité aux garçons. Des offres de transport insensibles aux spécificités de genre. Sans oublier la culture du harcèlement.La ville se décline surtout au masculin. Plusieurs études récentes le confirment. L'auteur décrit comment la cité renforce les inégalités entre les femmes et les hommes et en crée de nouvelles, et montre qu'il est possible de la rendre plus égalitaire.L'usage de la ville est mixte, et travailler sur le mieux vivre des femmes, n'est-ce pas travailler pour tous ?

The Cambridge Companion to Tango

Tango music rapidly became a global phenomenon as early as the beginning of the twentieth century, with about 30% of gramophone records made between 1903 and 1910 devoted to it. Its popularity declined between the 1950s and the 1980s but has since risen to new heights. This Companion offers twenty chapters from varying perspectives around music, dance, poetry, and interdisciplinary studies, including numerous visual and audio illustrations in print and on the accompanying webpages. Its multidisciplinary approach demonstrates how different disciplines intersect through performative, historical, ethnographic, sociological, political, and anthropological perspectives. These thematic continuities illuminate diverse international perspectives and highlight how the art form flourished in Argentina, Uruguay and abroad, while tracing its international and cultural impact over the last century. This book is an innovative resource for scholars and students of tango music, particularly those seeking a diverse international perspective on the subject.

Integrated Urban Environment Management and Resilience

The city appears as an artefact, a more or less homogeneous technical ensemble, but also as a production of space, the privileged place where social relations in all historical forms take place. The city, which is crossed by all socialities and their contradictions, is directly influenced by them and is even their privileged vector. Introducing the technical developments that are expressed in a multidisciplinary approach into the lived social world facilitates the understanding of the city and the way in which it adapts to the difficulties it faces. We propose the morpho-sociological approach, which gives a representation of the state of the contemporary city and the conditions of its production; the geographical approach with the problems of development and the sharing of these areas; the economic approach with the modalities specific to a development model, making urban composition the answer to the problems of the sustainable city; and the sociological approach when it comes up against the effects of the now dominant digital world.

Géographie des homophobies

  • Publisher: Armand Colin

La question des homophobies a toujours été posée du point de vue de la reconnaissance des droits, des mouvements sociaux, des minorités ou des exclusions qu’elles subissent. Pourtant, depuis peu, des chercheurs, et notamment des géographes, ont mis en avant le rôle déterminant que joue l’espace dans les expériences de discrimination. Les textes ici rassemblés viennent analyser les données géographiques et sociales les plus récentes sur le sujet, pour produire une information scientifique qui corresponde aux préoccupations des acteurs, associatifs ou institutionnels. Ils ouvrent également grand le champ de l’intersectionnalité et de la pluridisciplinarité, en abordant des questions nouvelles, et fortement ancrées dans l’actualité, telles les transidentités, la transparentalité, les espaces queer ou les mouvements intersexes. Fonctionnant aussi bien sur le mode de l’entretien que de l’essai scientifique, cet ouvrage prend le pari d’une approche novatrice : celle de rendre compte de la territorialité des expériences de la discrimination de genre.

The Diaspora of the Comoros in France

Based on an ethnographic study of mobilisations of the Comorian diaspora in Marseille during political and cultural events, the book examines communitarisation in relation to three thematic areas, namely spaces, cultural markets and local politics. Drawing on Foucault’s concept of the dispositif, the author analyses mobilisations of postcolonial diaspora as part of a dispositif of communitarisation, that is, a set of discourses, practices, institutions and subjectivations of diasporic community. She argues that constructions of ‘community’ are both shaped by and shape ethnicised biopolitics, expressed by modes of governing diasporic groups along ethnicised divisions and a marking of et...

Collective Participation and Audience Engagement in Rap Music

Why do rap MCs present their studio recorded lyrics as “live and direct”? Why do they so insistently define abilities or actions, theirs or someone else’s, against a pre-existing signifier? This book examines the compositional practice of rap lyricists and offers compelling answers to these questions. Through a 40 year-span analysis of the music, it argues that whether through the privileging of chanted call-and-response phrases or through rhetorical strategies meant to assist in getting one’s listening audience open, the focus of the first rap MCs on community building and successful performer-audience cooperation has remained prevalent on rap records with lyrics and production tech...

Over the past three decades there has been widespread commitment to an understanding that sport can play a key role in community development. The role of sport within communities has been promoted with a wide range of goals such as environmental considerations, encouragement of civic pride, enhancement of confidence and self-esteem and development of social cohesion as well as the fostering of a fit and healthy workforce. To address these issues, a number of programmes have been funded and supported to develop the role of sport in communities worldwide and to increase participation and access to sport and physical activities in rural areas. In addition we are witnessing the development of ne...
