The Refuge-ED Dialogic Co-Creation Process
A growing body of literature suggests that involving end-users in intervention research, including design, implementation, and evaluation, is associated with numerous positive outcomes. These outcomes include improved intervention efficacy, sustainability, and psychological growth among collaborators. The value of this approach and the recommendation for researchers to embrace co-creation in implementation and policies have also been recognised w…
Balkan Migration Crises and Beyond
This article has a threefold aim. First, to create a typology of Balkan migration crises. Second, to reflect on how migration is theorized in a crisis situation by analyzing the competing conceptual clusters and proposing new ones. Third, to measure the ratio between the region’s crisis and anti-crisis potential in the field of migration in regard both to agency and policies. The article is structured in four parts. The first part reconstructs th…
From Post-Communism to Post-Democracy
The analysis starts from a key question: how many transformations did post-communism, which came as a promise and project for one transformation, actually carry out? This article is a conceptual, not an event narrative about the transformations of democratization. Its theoretical ambition is threefold. The first aim is to develop a new analytical model for the study of transformations based on the concept of ‘symbolic-ideological hegemony’ and a …
If Borders Did Not Exist, Euroscepticism Would Have Invented Them Or, on Post-Communist Re/De/Re/Bordering in Bulgaria
The thesis of this article is that if borders did not exist, Euroscepticism would have invented them. If Sartre is paraphrased, it is to emphasize that Euroscepticism needs borders in the same intense political and symbolic way as anti-Semitism needs Jews. This thesis is argued in three steps. The first analyses the paradox of the intense theoretical deconstruction of borders in the era of an overbordered world and argues the ideas of the ‘reveng…
The Disaster of European Refugee Policy

Globalization, demand of sense and enemization of the other
The paper outlines a cultural–psychological interpretation of the current European societies’ socio-institutional crisis. To this end, preliminarily, the cultural psychological view of social behaviour is outlined, focusing on the idea that socio-political choices depend on how people make sense of their world. Second, the paper provides an interpretation of the current socio-political European scenario of crisis, based on the main results of a r…
Occupy Bulgaria
This article examines the reinvention of post-communist democracy through contestation and new mobilizations on and offline. The hypothesis of this analysis is that we are currently witnessing a second democratic revolution: following the velvet revolution of the 1990s, a second, digital and contestatory revolution has been occurring in the 2010s. Whereas the first revolution introduced parliamentary democracy into the post-communist states, the …
Mobile Balkans
The objective of the article is to scrutunize the Balkan migration phenomenon, highlightening the alloy between continuity and discontinuity in the explanation of migrations; the former expressed in the trends, the latter - in breakthroughs, ruptures, changes. Four periods are articulated and characterized through the major trends. The typology of Balkan migrations identifies ten types, classified in three larger categories. The article distingui…
Religion, Politics, and Nationalism in Postcommunist Bulgaria
The article theorizes the vibrating relations between religion, politics, and nationalism in the Bulgarian postcommunist public sphere. “Secularization without secularism” was the formula of the communist politicization of religion. The postcommunist religionization of politics and politicization of religion are analyzed through the symbolic mapping of religions, the structural affinities between nationalism and Orthodox Christianity, the contest…

Regards de femmes
L’auteur introduit cinq portraits de femmes qui illustrent différents types et logiques migratoires qu’elle analyse par les concepts de mondialisation, système-monde et système migratoire, super-diversité, « eurostars and eurocities », « empowerment ». Elle questionne ces concepts à travers des expériences migratoires postcommunistes. L’article polémique avec le mainstream des études des femmes qui les conceptualise prioritairement en termes de d…
Migrations, pluralisation, ethnicisation des sociétés contemporaines
La question migratoire constitue un enjeu scientifique majeur pour penser simultanément l’ethnicisation et la pluralisation des sociétés contemporaines. En effet, d’une part l’ethnicisation signifie la multiplication de situations de domination sociale, de racismes différenciés et de violences physiques ou symboliques, situations auxquelles les migrants(es) « font face » sur différents modes en développant des stratégies de contournement, de rési…
Ethnic minorities and political representation
The political representation of minority groups in Bulgaria is analyzed from three perspectives. The first relates to political socialization: the mechanisms of minority political preference, and their materialization into political behavior, mostly during elections or through party membership. The second relates to political actors' conduct towards minorities: their attitudes toward minority identities and the significance of minority representa…
L’engagement citoyen en Europe de l’Est
Le rapport du citoyen aux affaires de la cité ne cesse d’intéresser les sciences sociales et nous sommes loin d'avoir les éléments essentiels pour en comprendre les mécanismes. La philosophie politique moderne, en se référant au modèle de la démocratie athénienne de l’époque classique, prescrit au citoyen le devoir de s’intéresser aux affaires publiques, d’y participer, d’être actif. Mais depuis plusieurs décennies, la sociologie politique décrit…
De l’individu postcommuniste au citoyen
L’article analyse le paradoxe de la conception communiste du citoyen engagé : au niveau idéologique, citoyenneté et engagement sont intrinsèquement liés, au niveau politique ils sont souvent radicalement dissociés. Le citoyen communiste est plus engagé que citoyen. La citoyenneté était dépourvue de plusieurs de ses attributs : de la jouissance de la loi qui établit « l’égalité arithmétique » et minorise les maîtres ; de la citoyenneté active – ci…

La reconnaissance à l’épreuve
La « reconnaissance » est à l’ordre du jour de débats tant scientifiques que politiques. Depuis quelques années, la philosophie politique, sous l’impulsion notamment de C. Taylor, M. Walzer, A. Honneth, N. Fraser, fait une place importante à ce concept pour penser la manière dont les sociétés contemporaines « tiennent ensemble », alors qu’elles sont marquées par la pluralité des identités, la montée en puissance de l’individu et de la subjectivit…
L'immigration en Bulgarie
Avant la chute du mur de Berlin, l'immigration en Bulgarie était essentiellement politique, concernant surtout des étudiants boursiers et quelques réfugiés politiques. Depuis, la situation a beaucoup évolué : des Russes sont restés ; des Britanniques se sont installés, ainsi que des Africains, des Chinois et des Arabes, originaires du Moyen-Orient. Si ces immigrés sont confrontés à des problèmes d'intégration, les discriminations qu'ils subissent…
Nouvelles migrations chinoises et travail en Europe
L'intensification des mouvements migratoires Est-Ouest modifie en profondeur l'Europe économique. Parmi ceux-ci, l'importance croissante des déplacements de populations chinoises (qu'elles soient très qualifiées ou qu'elles le soient peu) redessine le marché du travail européen et trace les contours d'espaces économiques et sociaux inédits. Ces "nouvelles migrations" révèlent le processus de mondialisation "par le bas" et "par le haut", portées p…
Francophonie et démocratisation post-communiste
L’article se propose d’étudier la Francophonie dans la lumière de la transition post-communiste. L’objectif est d’opposer à l’approche quantitative, qui mesure souvent l’impact de la Francophonie dans les pays non francophones de l’Europe de l’Est par le nombre d’élèves, une autre approche qui cherche le lien entre la Francophonie et les problèmes stratégiques du développement des pays respectifs. Le prisme est moins celui de la diversité culture…
