Perceptions, comportements et attentes de la classe moyenne des petites et moyennes villes face aux enjeux environnementaux
Cet article analyse les perceptions et les comportements environnementaux de la classe moyenne des petites et moyennes villes (PMV) au Chili et en Argentine. Il s’appuie sur des entretiens semi-dirigés menés en 2024 auprès de membres de la classe moyenne dans quatre PMV. Les résultats montrent que ces populations, dépendantes des ressources naturelles et exposées aux chocs climatiques, expriment une préoccupation forte face aux enjeux environneme…
You Can't Always Get What You Want”
Over the past decade, much of the global middle class has become more vulnerable and disillusioned. Drawing on original qualitative surveys in Brazil, Côte d'Ivoire, Turkey, and Vietnam, this paper reveals a persistent disconnect between middle‐class expectations and government policy in the core domains of the social contract: public services, social protection, and participation. On the demand side, middle‐class respondents report frustration w…

Arrangements de protection sociale et conditions de vie
En lien avec le cadre d'analyse des systèmes locaux de protection sociale, cet article explore la diversité des arrangements de protection sociale et leur association avec les conditions de vie des ménages à Madagascar. Pour cela, nous mobilisons les données d'une enquête innovante, l'enquête Sysmipro. Nos investigations empiriques permettent d'identifier quatre arrangements de protection sociale articulant des mécanismes formels, semi-formels et…
Metropolitan Policing in Crisis
Ever since the killing of George Floyd in May 2020, there has been a growth in social movements resisting aspects of policing in the US and the UK. In the UK it has evolved in particular directions in response to various controversies in policing and a growing mood to resist increasingly authoritarian legislation emerging from government, in part to repress the very movements they are bringing forth. This paper was delivered as part of an ESRC-fu…

Deconstructing Criminalization Processes
This article discusses some theoretical issues relating to recent trends in global policing. It puts forward the argument that the growth in the scale of anti-police and anti-government protests since 2019 is an intensification of the repercussions of the global crisis of political economy since the 2008 crash and subsequent austerity measures. The focus is developments in the United States and the United Kingdom, where states and their agents of…

What’s in the middle”
Should we call it a (middle) class? A socio‐economic exploration of the Vietnamese middle‐income group
By combining household survey data on the economic and social characteristics of middle‐income earners and primary survey data on their subjective perceptions, we show that the so‐called Vietnamese ‘middle class’ is strongly heterogeneous in terms of income, occupation and status and includes a large percentage of highly vulnerable households facing high individual risk not covered by social protection. Although marginally driven by public sector…
Ethnic Diversity, Local Redistribution and Income Inequality
This article examines the relationship between ethnic diversity, redistributive policies and income inequality in the context of Mexican municipalities. Although we primarily focus on income inequality within municipalities, we are also interested in how ethnic diversity and redistribution affect income disparities between municipalities. This study uses multiple data sets to construct original measures of mean household income, income inequality…

Is Excess Weight Penalised or Rewarded in Middle‐Income Countries’ Labour Markets? Comparative Evidence from China, India and Mexico
This comparative study examines the relationship between excess weight and hourly wages in the unprecedented context of middle‐income countries. We compare three countries that are at different stages of the nutrition transition: India (at an early stage), China (at an intermediate stage) and Mexico (at an advanced stage). To do so, we use three distinct household surveys and combine different estimation procedures. Our results emphasise a wage p…
Elias, ultra-realism and double-binds
‘Ultra-realism’ has become an influential current in criminology, especially in the study of violence and explanations of trends in violent crime. Ultra-realist writers frequently make use of Norbert Elias’s theory of civilizing processes, while also often expressing reservations about his ideas. In this article, we argue that ultra-realists tend to make only partial and inaccurate use of Elias’s very extensive writings. Although he himself did n…
Anatomy of the Brazilian middle class
This article aims to analyse the composition of the Brazilian middle class and its main behaviours and expectations. Combining a quantitative analysis based on the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) and a qualitative survey carried out among households belonging to the middle class, it reveals the following characteristics. First, the Brazilian middle class is heterogeneous and a substantial part of it remains vulnerable to poverty. Second, …

À quoi ressemblent les classes moyennes en Côte d’Ivoire aujourd’hui? Continuités historiques et enjeux renouvelés d’un ensemble hétérogène
L’essor des classes moyennes en Côte d’Ivoire constitue un enjeu économique et politique central. Cet article analyse la composition de cette catégorie de revenus et son inscription dans les régimes de croissance du pays. En s’appuyant sur une méthodologie combinant des données d’enquêtes quantitatives et qualitatives, nos analyses montrent que les classes moyennes ivoiriennes représentent un ensemble limité et très hétérogène de la population, r…
A People’s History of Riots, Protest and the Law
This book examines how movements from below pose challenges to the status quo. The 2010s have seen an explosion of protest movements, sometimes characterised as riots by governments and the media. But
People's History of Riots, Protest and the Law
Medieval Riots
Rebellions, riots and civil disturbances of all sorts hold a particular fascination for historians. The collapse of normal social disciplines and restraints is held to reveal tensions and conflicts embedded but concealed within the workings of everyday society. The origins of a rising such as the 1381 English Peasant's Revolt may perhaps be traced deep within society, both in social or economic terms but also chronologically. The fact that such t…
Democracy and Protest in the Ancient World
The relationship of riots, protest and the law has a lot to do with that most fundamental of political concepts—democracy. Democracy has its roots in the collective actions of sections of society carried out to attain their rights as citizens—what we might call today their civil or human rights. Examples from ancient Athens and Rome will be discussed to illustrate how citizens took government into their hands in protest at tyrannical injustice an…
Classes moyennes et émergence en Asie de l'Est
Cet article propose un état des lieux de la littérature portant sur la croissance rapide des classes moyennes des pays émergents d'Asie de l'Est selon trois axes. La définition et la mesure de ces classes moyennes sont d'abord questionnées. Les caractéristiques microéconomiques de ces classes en termes de consommation et d'investissement en capital humain sont ensuite examinées. Enfin, la capacité de ces groupes sociaux à croissance rapide à prov…

Bristol
Although Bristol's inner-city districts of St Paul's, St Jude's and Easton are currently the subject of urban regeneration, the underlying socio-economic inequalities facing the black, minority ethnic and poor white communities that live there have been ignored. The legacy of Bristol's leading role in the slave trade, the institutional racism that led to the St Paul's riot in 1980 and the domestic Islamophobia accompanying the 'war on terror' hav…
Teenagers under the knife
The contradiction emerging between the lived experience of a minority of marginalised urban youth and the punitive operant conditioning of antisocial behaviour legislation is illustrative of the increasing gap between society's expectations of behaviour and the coming reality. In this paper, Loic Wacquant's sociology of advanced marginality is combined with Norbert Elias' concept of civilising and decivilising processes and applied to the dilemma…

Tentative evaluation of the impact of public transfers on the dynamics of poverty
The aim of this article is to offer a dynamic impact analysis of the system of transfers in Russia, based on a comparison of indicators of well‐being measured before and after state intervention. We shall begin by assessing the impact of public transfers on different forms of poverty and demonstrate that, while the system is seeing a fall in chronic and transitional poverty, there is very little movement between categories. We shall then evaluate…

The dynamics of poverty in Russia: An analysis in terms of exit and entry Since poverty in Russia is mainly a transitory phenomenon, with many movements in and out, analyzing it necessitates evaluating transition probabilities. Data from the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey and duration models are used to study poverty transitions in Russia between 1994 and 2000. A nonpara- metric method estimates poverty exit, entry and re-entry rates, whi…

Rage against the market
In April 2011, in the inner-city Stokes Croft area of Bristol, a riot broke out triggered by the heavy-handed policing of a sustained campaign opposed to the building of a Tesco store in the area. Stokes Croft is adjacent to the St Paul's area where, thirty-one years ago, the first of the 1980s series of riots, across cities throughout Britain, took place. This piece examines the underlying background to the 'Tesco riots', including increasing ge…
Is Inequality Harmful for the Environment? An Empirical Analysis Applied to Developing and Transition Countries
The object of this article is to examine the relation between social inequalities and pollution. First of all we provide a survey demonstrating that, from a theoretical point of view, a decrease in inequality has an uncertain impact on the environment. Second, on the basis of these conceptual considerations, we propose an econometric analysis based on panel data (fixed-effects and dynamic panel data models) concerning developing and transition co…
Inégalités, développement et qualité de l'environnement
Cet article analyse la relation entre les inégalités et la pollution. En premier lieu, il propose une revue de la littérature montrant que, d'un point de vue théorique, une diminution des inégalités exerce un impact néfaste sur l'environnement. En second lieu, nous proposons une analyse économétrique à partir de données de panel pour les pays en développement et en transition sur la période 1988-2003. Plus précisément, nous examinons l'effet des …
Pauvreté, pénurie et transition en Russie
L'objectif de cet article est d'analyser l'évolution du phénomène de la pauvreté en Russie, sous le régime soviétique puis durant la transition vers l'économie de marché. Si dans le système socialiste, la pauvreté monétaire était modérée et les besoins de base globalement satisfaits, la régulation pénurique de l'économie limitait l'accès des individus aux biens et services, restreignant par conséquent leur niveau de bien-être. Le processus de tra…

Physical Puritanism and Religious Dissent
Physical puritanism", the name given to the popular medical reform movements of early Victorian Britain by the Edinburgh academic Samuel Brown, nicely evokes their links with religious dissent. While historians have examined the formal organization, leadership, and membership of several of these movements, we know very little about the ways of thinking of their ordinary adherents. The diary of John Young (1820-1904), a Sunderland chemist and drug…
