Suicide Prevention Under Austerity
This article examines how French general practitioners (GPs) navigate suicide‐related referrals within a healthcare system strained by austerity. Drawing on repeated interviews with 29 GPs and a mind‐mapping methodology, it shows that referral practices are shaped less by formal clinical pathways than by local resource configurations and the workarounds practitioners develop in response to them. The analysis highlights three interrelated dynamics…

The Everyday of Epistemic Tensions in U.S. Psychiatry
Data sharing is not applicable to this article as no new data were created or analyzed in this study
On the Social Existence of Mental Health Categories
Mental health categories can circulate in societies regardless of whether they are recognized by medical professionals. This article asks why some labels are adopted en masse to commonly characterize some forms of distress, while other labels remain confined to specialist spheres. Contrasting with many examples of medicalization, 'sex addiction' offers a heuristic case study because it was only after its exclusion from the Diagnostic and Statisti…
Sociologie du suicide
Cet article traite des liens entre la violence et la politique à Rio de Janeiro (Brésil), à partir de l’analyse des opérations policières dans les favelas sous contrôle de groupes criminels armés. Ces incursions armées par les forces policières dans les zones de pauvreté, qui constituent le principal instrument d’action publique pour contrôler la criminalité, sont responsables d’une grande partie du nombre exorbitant de morts provoqués par la pol…
Eloquent Blood
Microsociology has been criticised for universalising 'the' interaction order as it occurs among the North American middle classes. A way of addressing this issue lies in historicising interaction: showing how each component of the interaction order has been historically moulded. The present article illustrates this argument with the case of blushing, from the late 18th century through to the early 21st century, in the USA, Australia and France. …
Disciplinary differences in the study of the relationship between social variables and mental health
There has been sustained interest in the intersection between social constructs and mental health from diverse disciplines including psychiatry, sociology and public health. However, no systematic attempt has been made to catalogue what is meant by ‘social’ by different researchers, how variables deemed ‘social’ constructs are linked to mental health, nor whether these patterns differ by academic discipline. Understanding interdisciplinary differ…
The Problem of Pétain
How do governments commemorate salient national figures with contested reputations? The case of Marshal Philippe Pétain, whose fame followed World War I (WWI), but was later stigmatized for having led the Nazi-affiliated Vichy regime during World War II (WWII), suggests that political leaders consider the interests of competing groups. In the case of Pétain, these include veterans' organizations, Jewish heritage groups, leftists, and, eventually,…
The sociological implications of taking self-injury as a practice
On the Shoulders of Citers
The sociological study of intellectual recognition has tended to focus on highly cited and highly acclaimed authors and perspectives, while reserving some interest for those who are “forgotten.” We know much less about the liminal cases: authors who are in-between fame and oblivion. This paper proposes a way to study intellectual recognition, by examining the liminal case of sociologist Charles H. Cooley. Based on a multilayered (quantitative and…
What do we mean by "social" in mental health research
Sociology and psychology
This article is the introduction to the special issue 'Sociology and psychology: what intersections?' In addition to presenting the articles included in this issue, the present text outlines the general stakes of interdisciplinarity between psychology and sociology. It argues that interdisciplinarity requires a specific conversion work between disciplines and that, in the particular case of sociology and psychology, importations and exportations …
Situating Words
This article advocates a certain interpretation of grounded theory for the analysis of interviews with people diagnosed with dementia. Distinguishing itself from the methodological approaches that, closer to thematic analysis, consider the discourses of the participants as “pure symptoms” or “pure meanings,” this interpretation consists in interpreting the content of the interviews jointly with their enunciation situation and the social trajector…
Elements for a Theory of Utopia Production
Why, in a given society, at a given point of its history, do some individuals design idealized forms of social organization? While utopian studies have focused on analyzing the content of utopias, addressing definitional issues, or understanding the role of utopias in social change, this article proposes to examine the very production of utopias. This production is conceptualized as the “intersection” between the social trajectory of a utopia pro…
Why mental disorders flourish and wither
Updating Charles H. Cooley
This book explores the contemporary relevance of Charles H. Cooley’s thought, bringing together scholars from the US, Europe and Australia to reflect on Cooley’s theory and legacy. Offering an up-to-date analysis of Cooley’s reception in the history of the social sciences, an examination of epistemological and methodological advances on his work, critical assessments and novel articulations of his major ideas, and a consideration of new direction…
Why Do We Hurt Ourselves
Antonio Casilli et Paola Tubaro, Le phénomène « pro ana ». Troubles alimentaires et réseaux sociaux
Cet ouvrage présente les résultats d’une recherche collective animée par Antonio Casilli et Paola Tubaro, et qui a impliqué de nombreux autres chercheurs, acteurs de terrain et institutions. Ses six chapitres abordent les problématiques suivantes : comment développer une approche sociale, ou sociologique, des troubles alimentaires ; comment se structure la sociabilité en ligne et hors-ligne des personnes souffrant de tels troubles ; quelles sont …
Prendre l’âge en considération dans les méthodes qualitatives. Une tentative d’explicitation
Lors d’une recherche qualitative, comment prendre en considération l’âge des enquêtés dans l’analyse de la relation d’enquête ? Cet article approche la question à partir de la relecture de publications sociologiques et anthropologiques et de travaux de terrain menés par l’auteur auprès d’adolescents et de personnes âgées. Il défend une vision relationnelle de l’âge, au sens où cette variable n’y est pas appréhendée comme une caractéristique indiv…
Reactions to Discredit in Memory Consultation
Based on the observation of around seventy memory consultations, this article provides an analysis of cognitive assessment in the elderly in a Goffmanian perspective. During these interactions, patients run the risk of losing their credibility, given that what they say is both solicited by the geriatrician in order to spot potential daily difficulties and examined as potential signs of dementia. After having described how observed consultations w…
To what extent does diagnosis matter? Dementia diagnosis, trouble interpretation and caregiving network dynamics
Contemporary research into health treats diagnosis as a central step in illness management and trajectories. Most public health policies, especially in the case of Alzheimer's disease, claim that the earlier a diagnosis is made, the better it is for patients and caregivers. Quantitative and qualitative analysis from our longitudinal interview study, conducted with 60 caregivers of persons diagnosed with dementia, shows that this usual model of di…
Charles H. Cooley, un classique méconnu
Ce texte est un préambule à la traduction inédite de l’article « Social consciousness », écrit par Charles H. Cooley et paru en 1907 dans l’American Journal of Sociology. Il présente en premier l’intérêt de traduire aujourd’hui ce sociologue – un classique, voire un père fondateur de la sociologie étasunienne pourtant presque inconnu dans le monde francophone – avant d’aborder, ensuite, les problèmes spécifiques de traduction posés par ses écrits…

L'« expérience » du vieillissement
Cet article interroge le vieillissement à partir de l’agenda/journal d’un homme de quatre-vingt-sept ans, ancien employé des ressources humaines, rédigé alors qu’il vivait à domicile puis en maison de retraite. Partant d’une critique des approches du vieillissement en termes d’expérience, il propose d’analyser les écrits de l’enquêté en les replaçant dans leurs contextes sociaux et en les rapportant à la situation d’enquête, afin de comprendre le…

Fighting with Oneself to Maintain the Interaction Order
This article proposes an interactionist approach to self-injury behavior in youth. Mostly based on in-depth interviews with seventy people who self-harm or who have self-harmed at some point in their lives, it describes the process of daily self-injuring. It shows that this practice consists less in the self-harm in itself than in a liminal emotional state, composed of several successive steps, and that self-injury makes sense because concerned i…
L'organisation sociale des « hasards heureux ». Qu'est-ce qu'un soin en psychiatrie
Cet article propose une approche sociologique du soin psychiatrique. Il se fonde sur un travail de terrain mené dans un hôpital de jour à destination des adolescents, au cours duquel ont été effectués des observations et des entretiens avec des patients. L’auteur soutient que la dimension thérapeutique de la vie hospitalière peut être intégrée à la sociologie du travail psychiatrique. Pour ce faire, il décrit les interactions au sein de l’hôpital…

L’usage des émotions lors des interactions psychiatriques et gériatriques
This article proposes an analysis of the role played by emotions in medical consultation. It is based on the comparison of interactions between patients and professionals in two geriatric wards (specialized memory consultations) and in an adolescent day care hospital. Five types of emotion are then distinguished according to their uses : those which are conflicting, related to face work, solicited, projected and validated. This leads to further e…

Quand la scolarité dépasse la scolarité
Basé sur une enquête sociologique par entretiens approfondis, cet article propose d’étudier les blessures auto-infligées, ou automutilations, au regard de l’expérience scolaire des personnes concernées. Il établit dans un premier temps comment s’imbriquent cette pratique et les vécus scolaires des enquêtés puis, dans un second temps, il relate certaines situations dans lesquelles la pratique de l’automutilation et le mal-être en amont orientent l…
L'automutilation
Cet article prend appui sur une enquête sociologique menée par entretiens approfondis avec des adolescents. Il se propose d’analyser la pratique des blessures auto-infligées en liant trois éléments : l’histoire personnelle des enquêtés, les modalités concrètes de leurs blessures et le système émotionnel qui leur donne sens. Cette démarche aboutit à l’idée suivante : l’automutilation est une pratique visant à maintenir ou rétablir un ordre émotion…
Internet et la méthode ethnographique
Cet article part d’un constat : aujourd’hui, les chercheurs en sciences sociales ne peuvent plus se passer de l’usage d’internet. Pourtant, très peu de travaux ont cherché à adapter la méthodologie qualitative à ce média. En se focalisant sur les messageries instantanées, il s’agira de montrer les possibilités ouvertes par cette technologie dans le cadre d’un terrain ethnographique et d’en décrire quelques utilisations

Les conditions sociales de l’automutilation juvénile. Une approche sociologique
Dans nos sociétés contemporaines, une partie des adolescents et jeunes adultes, majoritairement des femmes, se blessent eux-mêmes, volontairement, régulièrement, en vue de se soulager d’un « mal-être ». Parce qu’elles désignent un mal de vivre à première vue individuel, ces conduites sont quasi-exclusivement étudiées par les professionnels de la santé mentale qui se centrent sur leur dimension psychologique. Cette thèse propose une sociologie emp…

Un test rudimentaire mais pratique. Enquête sur le succès du Mini-Mental State Examination
Le Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) est, a l’echelle internationale, le test neuropsychologique le plus utilise dans le processus diagnostique des demences liees a l’âge ainsi que dans les recherches medicales traitant de ces thematiques. Cet article propose de comprendre ce succes en revenant sur l’histoire de ce test et sur son appropriation, notamment, par les chercheurs en medecine, les geriatres et les autorites de sante. Il aboutit a la…
