Ecrire l’histoire des émotions. De l’objet à la catégorie d’analyse
2013
L’histoire des emotions a connu depuis une dizaine d’annees un developpement spectaculaire, avec des resultats inegaux. Cet article s’efforce de rendre compte des principales directions dans lesquelles cette histoire s’est engagee, et d’en proposer un premier bilan critique. Cela suppose au prealable de mettre au jour les tensions, souvent implicites, auxquelles elle se heurte, engendrant de nombreux debats. Parmi ces tensions figurent les partages entre nature et culture, langage et experience, individuel et collectif. A partir d’une historiographie essentiellement dix-neuviemiste, l’article propose de faire de l’emotion non un objet clos, mais une categorie d’analyse transversale, un moye…
Economists and Eugenics: Progressive Era Racism and its (Jewish) Discontents
2017
This chapter analyzes the contribution to the debates on labor and immigration of a group of Jewish academicians and reformers who, during the second half of the Progressive Era, explicitly took a stance against the racialist and eugenic rhetoric of the period. This group includes first-rank economists like Edwin R. A. Seligman, Jacob H. Hollander, and Emanuel A. Goldenweiser; influential field specialists such as Isaac A. Hourwich and Isaac M. Rubinow; and relatively less known figures like Max J. Kohler and Samuel K. Joseph. By focusing on the voices of these dissenters, this chapter enriches the emerging picture of Progressive Era eugenic and racial thought.

2015
The study of the “Lusitanian robbery” led to an important research since the late nineteenth century.Nevertheless, and despite a gradual shift in modern historiography towards a more nuanced approachto the origin of the phenomenon, the problem of land still remains a central concern of many historiansand archaeologists. From a close discussion of the main passages of Livy, Diodorus and Appian especiallyrelating to the relationship that some have sought to establish between lack and / or poverty ofthe land and development of robbery among the Lusitanians, it gives a review of the socio-economicinterpretation.
New Insights of Profile Oriented Marketing and Adaption Management for a Future-Oriented City Development
2017
The world is changing fast, and cities are facing complex transitions in economic, social and environmental areas. Therefore, the design of city systems will play an essential role in shaping a sustainable, innovative and livable future. Adaptive urban profiling was recently presented as a useful tool for municipals to enhance sustainable city development. It builds upon profile oriented marketing while including elements of adaption management. Thus, city managers can increase their cities attractiveness by providing it with a clear profile that is recognized around the world on the one hand, while flexibly adapting to change if necessary. Only an integrated approach that puts people first…
Introduction: The World as a Stereogram
2014
This paper presents the historically most important theories of how visual perception is made spatial in the cognitive processing of the sensory input to the eye. All of them involve active engagement of the mind. Firstly, in the medieval theories physiological processes developed three-dimensional imagery in the brain, and active mental processing was needed to build coherence in the perceptual experience as a whole but not to yield the basic idea of spatiality. Secondly, according to Descartes, the eyes produced a unified two-dimensional visual image that was neurally transmitted to the inner surface of the brain. The innate conception of three-dimensional spatiality was superimposed inte…
Taking historical embeddedness seriously : Three historical approaches to advance strategy process and practice research
2016
International audience; Despite the proliferation of strategy process and practice research, we lack understanding of the historical embeddedness of strategic processes and practices. In this paper, we present three historical approaches with the potential to remedy this deficiency. First, realist history can contribute to a better understanding of the historical embeddedness of strategic processes; in particular, comparative historical analysis can explicate the historical conditions, mechanisms, and causality in strategic processes. Second, interpretative history can add to our knowledge of the historical embeddedness of strategic practices, and microhistory can specifically help to under…
La durée du travail, la norme et ses usages en 1848
2011
Le decret du 2 mars 1848, qui reduit la duree du travail d’une heure, introduit une rupture majeure en instaurant pour la premiere fois une norme nationale fixant une duree maximale pour le travail des adultes. Cette decision souvent citee mais rarement etudiee suscita de multiples debats dans des arenes diverses, au Parlement, dans la presse comme dans les ateliers. L’objectif de cet article est de montrer comment cette decision prise dans le contexte d’effervescence revolutionnaire crea les conditions d’une irreversibilite de l’intervention de l’Etat dans le champ social.
Landscapes of Loss and Destruction: Sámi Elders’ Childhood Memories of the Second World War Sámi Elders’ Childhood Memories of the Second World War
2019
The so-called Lapland War between Finland and Germany at the end of the Second World War led to a mass-scale destruction of Lapland. Both local Finnish residents and the indigenous Sami groups lost their homes, and their livelihoods suffered in many ways. The narratives of these deeply traumatic experiences have long been neglected and suppressed in Finland and have been studied only recently by academics and acknowledged in public. In this text, we analyze the interviews with four elders of one Sami village, Vuotso. We explore their memories, from a child’s perspective, scrutinizing the narration as a multilayered affective process that involves sensual and embodied dimensions of memory.

This new appraisal also highlights the major significance of the history of women and gender identity.
