    Ibrahima Thioub, Laurent Fourchard et al.•ARTICLE•Politique africaine•2026

    Endam Bilaali. Renégocier les identités en situation post-esclavagiste est un documentaire de 2014 réalisé par Ibrahima Thioub, Abderrahmane Ngaïdé et Ibrahima Seck. Le film explore les effets persistants de l’esclavage dans la région du Fouta Toro, dans la moyenne vallée du Sénégal, notamment la manière dont les identités sociales sont perçues, négociées et transformées après la fin de l’esclavage.

  • L’histoire comme cause. Historicités en dispute en Afrique

    Laurent Fourchard, George Mann et al.•ARTICLE•Politique africaine•2026

    Les variétés de vignes résistantes (VR) aux maladies pourraient être une réponse pertinente aux défis contemporains de la viticulture. Cependant, la pluralité des acteurs impliqués complexifie les décisions, générant des discours et pratiques hétérogènes, qui contribuent à freiner leur adoption. La présente étude analyse l’évolution des discours médiatiques sur les VR en France, via une revue croisée de la presse généraliste et spécialisée, compl…

  • We Don’t Operate from a Blueprint”: An Interview with Noor Nieftagodien on Co-Producing History in Post-Apartheid South Africa

    Laurent Fourchard, George Mann et al.•ARTICLE•Politique africaine•2026

    L’historien Noor Nieftagodien est co-directeur du History Workshop de l’université de Witswatersrand (Johannesburg). Dans cet entretien, Nieftagodien analyse la trajectoire du History Workshop depuis sa création dans les années 1970 jusqu’à nos jours. Le History Workshop met au centre de sa pratique l’idée de « co-production » de l’histoire, une vision de l’histoire comprise comme un projet collectif dépendant de la collaboration active des membr…

  • French Colonialism and The Making of the Modern Sahel

    George Mann, Gregory Mann•CHAPTER•Oxford Handbook of the African…•2021

    French colonial rule played an important but not determinative role in making the modern Sahel. By the 1950s, the region was more integrated politically and infrastructurally than it would be in the decades that followed. At independence, the new governments of the Sahel featured identical, if parallel, political institutions modeled on those of the French Fifth Republic (1958–). They also shared a secular character, a military culture, a history…

  • Becoming a Training and Supervising Analyst: Interviews from the Columbia Postgraduate Analytic Practice Study

    Although much has been written about the training and supervising analyst system (TSA), its role in analysts' professional development has not been empirically studied. The Columbia Psychoanalytic Practice Study (CPAPS) is a longitudinal study of the careers of graduates from the Columbia Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research. Interviews with 29/37 (78%) analysts graduating from 2003-2009 were analyzed using grounded theory. Our researc…

  • Professional and Personal Development After Psychoanalytic Training: Interviews with Early Career Analysts

    After analytic training, graduates position their newly acquired identity as “psychoanalyst” in the context of their broader career, contemplating whether to start new analytic cases, adapting their new knowledge base to psychotherapy practice, and deciding how to focus their professional and personal interests going forward. Using questionnaires and interviews, the Columbia Postgraduate Analytic Practice Study (CPAPS) has prospectively tracked t…

  • K athleen K eller . Colonial Suspects: Suspicion, Imperial Rule, and Colonial Society in Interwar French West Africa

    Open Access•George Mann, Gregory Mann•ARTICLE•The American Historical Review•2019

    In her short and lively Colonial Suspects: Suspicion, Imperial Rule, and Colonial Society in Interwar French West Africa, Kathleen Keller offers a tightly framed account of the efforts of the French imperial state to maintain surveillance of individuals deemed suspicious in French West Africa between the world wars. These colonial suspects represent a motley crew. Some were well-known dissidents and activists, like Louis Hunkanrin of Dahomey. Oth…

  • From Empires to NGOs in the West African Sahel: The Road to Nongovernmentality

    Open Access•George Mann, Gregory Mann•BOOK•From Empires to NGOs in the West…•2014

    This book looks beyond the familiar history of former empires and new nation-states to consider newly transnational communities of solidarity and aid, social science and activism. Shortly after independence from France in 1960, the people living along the Sahel - a long, thin stretch of land bordering the Sahara - became the subjects of human rights campaigns and humanitarian interventions. Just when its states were strongest and most ambitious, …

    Two young men met on a quay at the port in Conakry, Guinea in 1946. One, waiting dockside, was Mamadou Madeira Keita, a low-level civil servant and archivist. Years later, when he was a political prisoner in the Malian Sahara, some would argue that he was 'the first francophone African ethnographer.' The other, descending the gangplank, was the Frenchman Keita had come to meet. Georges Balandier was unknown then, but would soon become a leading f…

  • What Was Theindigénat? The 'Empire of Law' in French West Africa

    Open Access•George Mann, Gregory Mann•ARTICLE•The Journal of African History•2009•Cited by: 51•References: 2

    What was the indigénat ? This article approaches this question via three arguments. First, a study of the indigénat (the regime of administrative sanctions applied to colonial subjects) challenges the idea that French West Africa formed part of an 'empire of law'. Second, a dynamic spectrum of political statuses developed around the indigénat until its abolition in 1946. This spectrum is no less significant than one of its poles alone, that of co…

  • Native Sons: West African Veterans and France in the Twentieth Century

    George Mann, Gregory Mann et al.•BOOK•Native Sons•2006•Cited by: 46

    For much of the twentieth century, France recruited colonial subjects from sub-Saharan Africa to serve in its military, sending West African soldiers to fight its battles in Europe, Southeast Asia, and North Africa. In this exemplary contribution to the "new imperial history," Gregory Mann argues that this shared military experience between France and Africa was fundamental not only to their colonial relationship but also to the reconfiguration o…

    At the close of the 1950s, in a time of innocence and in the first blush of courtship, Senegalese leader Léopold Sedar Senghor and his Soudanese counterpart Modibo Keita made a pilgrimage to Mali’s Dogon plateau to witness “authentic” African culture in what was then still the French Soudan. Political independence and a proposed federation between the two emerging nations were on the table. While the spectacle of masked dances probably did not se…

    This article argues that an innovative religious movement in postwar French Soudan (Mali) led some French administrators and military officers to adopt a new and more open stance towards local religious practices even as they fought hard to limit conversion to Islam and to counteract Muslim reform. Meanwhile, although the founder of the movement advocated submission to local authorities, young men claiming to be his messengers attacked elders and…

Many of those immigrants had lived in France for years, often with an ambiguous legal and bureaucratic status (hence their moniker sans-papiers, those without papers), and they had occupied the church in order to demand the…
