Uses of Raewyn Connell in the Construction of the Sub-Field of Masculinities Studies in France
By understanding the HSS (humanities and social sciences) scholar as a symbolic good, this article shows the intertwining of the French reception of the sociology of Raewyn Connell—an internationally leading figure in masculinities studies—and of the construction of a sub-field of masculinities studies in France. Drawing on his PhD research, the author evidences a significant increase in references to Connell’s work in French HSS scholarship and …
Studying the Making of Symbolic Goods in the Food Sector
Cooking as an activity of symbolic production is rarely addressed in the social science literature, which is surprising considering the great diversity of its transformations, from the inspired distinction of artistic cuisine to everyday domestic practices and the mass production of the food industry. The contributions to this issue approach cooking from a variety of angles. The subject of professional labour is central, with papers on home chefs…
The Economics of a Festive Policy
In 1924, Gustave Charpentier travelled to Roubaix, in the North of France, to direct a monumental, hybrid outdoor performance of Le Couronnement de la Muse du Peuple, a work he had also composed. For the local officials who had invited him, Charpentier’s show came as the climax of three days of festivities that had celebrated and glorified the socialist city. After giving an overview of the broader economy of the municipality’s festive policy, th…
Gathering Around Alternative Arab Cinema
In the early 1970s, the cosmopolitan world of Beirut’s filmmakers, critics and cinephiles was largely structured by an opposition between the Beirut Film Club and the Arab Film Club. The members of the latter, a younger association, dismissed the former as an elitist preserve of the Francophone bourgeoisie. At the time, the Arab Film Club was a space for encounters, political militancy and production of knowledge on cinema and a forum for lively …
The International Restructuring of Post-War Lebanese Cinema. Between the Diaspora’s Legacy and the Transnational Circulations of Films
The generation of filmmakers who reached maturity after the Lebanese Civil War faced a devastated cinema landscape. Still, drawing on the legacy of the previous period, which had already been characterized by extensive internationalization, these artists contributed to the restructuring of Lebanese cinema through its relationships to international actors. These relationships informed the sectors of training, production, distribution, as well as t…
Approaching Circulations through their Actors
While a number of studies on transnational philanthropy have been published, few have focused on the actors of these circulations. This is what this article sets out to do by examining the actors who make the circulation of philanthropy possible—the go-betweens—through the case of the American Friends of French cultural institutions. Drawing on a qualitative research conducted over the course of three years in France and in the United States, it …

Negotiating with the Border
Situated at the intersection of research on cultural policy and production and of border studies, this article focuses on the processes at work in the development of both formal and informal cross-border cultural actions. The case of the Brazil-Uruguay borderlands is explored in order to root analysis in a region that has been less studied both in the literature on cultural policy and on borderlands. Alongside institutionalization, the analysis e…
Contemporary French prisons
Although it is constantly under fire, prison remains the main form of punishment in France’s justice system. How are we to explain the longevity of this controversial institution? How can the reality of prison be described? What is a prison sentence in today’s France? This paper reconsiders prison by focusing on its paradoxes. The authors question the place of prison in society, reframe the debates on prison and shed light on everyday life in pri…
“I’m a Businesswoman/Come and Make Me Coffee*”. How Power Relations Informed the Social Mobility of French Female Rappers in the 1990s
What were the aspirations of women who began a rapping career in 1990s France? Were they looking to make it in a male-dominated world? To leave behind a dominated social position and enjoy an artist’s life? To assert the public existence of postcolonial minorities? Based primarily on life narratives, this article analyses the social mobility of female French rappers in the 1990s. It shows the importance of considering both subjective and objectiv…
Humanities and Social Sciences Scholars on the Campaign Trail
By analysing the interventions of humanities and social sciences (HSS) researchers and academics in national daily newspapers during the 2014 European electoral campaign, this article sheds new light on the development of “expertise” as a form of engagement of intellectuals in public space. While these scholars may be expected to lend their expertise, are they effectively doing this when they contribute to national generalist newspapers? This stu…
“In the name of harmony.” The imaginary of whiteness in the field of contemporary dance

Fondé sur une enquête sociologique qualitative avec des danseurs et danseuses et des chorégraphes circulant dans ce champ, il expose dan…

Findings are drawn from an ongoing qualitative study based on interviews with writers involved in thes…

Why French Academic Journals are Protesting
Since the beginning of 2020, over a hundred academic journals, mostly French human and social sciences publications, have announced that they have “joined the struggle” or that they are “on strike”. Their editorial boards have teamed up with the ongoing social movement protesting the plans to overhaul the country’s pension system, the unemployment benefits reform of November 2019 and the proposals formulated in the reports for the upcoming law fo…
Sciences en danger, revues en lutte
The arrival of robotics in surgery has modified the activity of operating block teams. It has led to a spatial reconfiguration of the block and has had an impact on the functioning of the work team, particularly when it comes to communication and work organization. The research in this area highlights the benefits of the surgery checklist and the development of non-technical skills. It does so by focusing on the training and evaluation related to…

Part 1 provides an overview of autonomy in three intellectual traditions: the sociology of professions, Marxist reflection theory, and field theory.

From Sociology to Literary Theory
This article examines how research on literature was integrated into Section VI of the École pratique des hautes études (EPHE) over time, showing how research shifted from the sphere of sociology to the burgeoning pole of specialists on literature and the arts formed around semiology and various appropriations of structuralism. Analysis of literature’s role as a research focus in the school also reflects the transformations of disciplinary subdiv…
Interpreting in mental health
Simultaneous interpreting in the context of mental health care for migrants faces several political issues, which result in questioning such professional practices towards patients whose mental suffering is often related to the experience of exile. Consultation sessions with migrants represent a challenge for interpreters as well. These professionals are required to position themselves in a caring relationship, while dealing with mental health pr…
The Discursive Spaces of the Border

The first section identifies different registers of discourses on death, which refer to physical death in the literal sense and social death in the figurative sense. The discourses that touch on death or the threat of death in these journey…
