Zouk Is the Only Medicine We Need”
This article demonstrates how the history of Kassav, the French Caribbean music group founded in 1979, sheds light on the cultural politics of French Caribbean music and the history of “global France.” It argues that Kassav's music represents an inventive cultural and commercial response to patterns of neocolonial and capitalist exclusion in the French Caribbean, one that drew on the islands' own cultural resources to fashion a new musical form, …

Death of a Polemicist: Honour and Calumny in Early Modern European Religious Debate
This article proposes a novel interpretation of printed religious polemic in the context of European religious struggle in the Age of Reformations. While recent scholarship has underscored the virulence with which controversialists waged their doctrinal debates, I argue that such work has not yet acknowledged the structuring, autonomous role played by honour in religious polemic. To this end, I consider the case of Guillaume de Reboul, a Protesta…
Commodity Trading, Globalization and the Colonial World: Spinning the Web of the Global Market
Commodity Trading, Globalization and the Colonial World: Spinning the Web of the Global Market provides a new perspective on economic globalization in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Instead of understanding the emergence of global markets as a mere result of supply and demand or as the effect of imperial politics, this book focuses on a global trading firm as an exemplary case of the actors responsible for conducting economic transaction…
Changes over Time in Qing History: The Importance of Context
Changes over Time in Qing History: The Importance of Context Paul Cohen When I received my doctorate (1961), it was not uncommon for westerners to see Qing China as sui generis, something fundamentally different from the countries of the west. China was a static, unchanging civilization. It was a strange place, hard to understand. And it existed in a state of isolation, hermetically sealed from the rest of the world. China, most western students …
Torture and Translation in the Multilingual Courtrooms of Early Modern France
This article sketches the history of the mediation of linguistic difference in the context of judicial torture in early modern France. It argues that language represented an important dimension of what took place in the torture chambers of early modern Europe. Embedded within multilingual societies and habitually confronted with linguistic difference, tribunals developed an array of mediation practices. Shaped by officials’ scribal and linguistic…

Was there an Amerindian Atlantic? Reflections on the limits of a historiographical concept
Proponents of the increasingly prominent “Atlantic history” paradigm argue that ocean-centered, transnational perspectives shed crucial light on connections which tied together Europe, Africa and the Americas in the early modern period, and which older forms of national and imperial histories obscured. In spite of these scholars’ calls for the construction of a truly inclusive history of the Atlantic basin and all its inhabitants, Amerindian peop…

L'imaginaire d’une langue nationale: L'État, les langues et l'invention du mythe de l'ordonnance de Villers-Cotterêts à l'époque moderne en France
The traditional narrative of the history of French holds up the 1539 Ordinance of Villers-Cotterêts as the moment when the French state first imposed French as the national language of France. As recent scholarship has shown, however, not only did the edict contribute little to the dissemination of French — a process which was already well underway in 1539 —, its authors did not conceive of their project as an attempt to unify linguistically Fran…

Resettlement, Opium and Labour Dependence: Akha-Tai Relations in Northern Laos
Forestry is a major source of revenue for the Lao People's Democratic Republic. The Government's view is that shifting cultivation in the highlands is the primary cause of deforestation and erosion; this has led it to establish a policy of eliminating shifting cultivation by the resettlement of highland people in or near the lowlands. Here, it is assumed, the highlanders will be able to lead a more sedentary existence, cultivate wet rice, and ben…

Heroes and Dilettantes: The Action Francaise, Le Sillon, and the Generation of 1905-14
In the spring of 1912, a series of articles entitled Les jeunes gens d'aujourd'hui appeared in the popular Parisian journal L'Opinion. Its authors were two intellectuals, Henri Massis and Alfred de Tarde, who wrote under the pseudonym and announced that France's new generation-the majority of her budding intelligentsia between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five-was rejecting the moral and intellectual foundations of the liberal republic establi…

The Erosion of surface naval power: Foreign Affairs , January 1971
THE effectiveness of merchant ships in ocean transport? and of surface naval vessels to protect them or to blockade them as the circumstances require?was the foundation on which Great Britain built her empire, on which the United States bases the credibility of her international commitments and by which the U.S.S.R. hopes to expand her role in Africa and Asia. That foundation continues to erode under an irresistible tide of technology, the key ex…

The Noblest Animate Motion: Speech, Physiology, and Medicine in Pre-Cartesian Linguistic Thought (review)
Why study stuttering? Of what interest are the ways in which the tongue, the muscles of the mouth and throat, teeth, saliva, and vocal cords work together to produce particular sounds? This is, no doubt, heady grist for the mills of medical researchers, linguists, and physicians who treat patients suffering from speech disorders. The historian of science or of ideas, however, might be tempted to pass over such esoteric subjects as a mere footnote…
