El orden público ante la libertad religiosa. Reflexiones sobre un debate
2020
Una práctica religiosa -el uso del velo integral- abrió un debate importante sobre los límites del orden público en relación con la libertad religiosa. En Francia, a raíz del Étude del Consejo de Estado adoptado en 2010, se hicieron varias distinciones: entre una concepción material e inmaterial del orden público, entre una concepción clásica y una concepción renovada y, en el plano político, entre una concepción liberal y una concepción republicana. El vínculo del orden público respecto a la libertad religiosa no es exáctamente igual al que mantiene con el resto de libertades, ya que la historia política los ha unido en una reflexión sobre los orígenes del Estado moderno. La búsqueda y jus…
Seguidors vencen, un grito de guerra para un rey: Un lema para la virtud de la Fortaleza en Alfonso V el Magnánimo (1423-1458)
2017
espanolLa historia politica de Alfonso V el Magnanimo, Rey de Aragon (1416-1458) permanece asociada, indefectiblemente, a sus derechos sobre el trono de Napoles. Las vicisitudes que vivio desde 1423, cuando Juana II Durazzo lo destituyo como heredero del mismo, hasta lograrlo en 1442, motivaron toda una serie de elementos representativos con los que el soberano busco legitimarse ante sus subditos y contemporaneos. De entre ellos, reclama la atencion el posible uso que el monarca hizo del lema “Seguidors vencen”. El estudio de dicho mote y su posible asociacion al emblema real del Siti Perillos constituyen el objeto del presente articulo. EnglishThe political history of Alfonsus V the Magnan…

The Abortion Act 1967: A fundamental change?
2014
DOI: 10.1057/9781137374103\₄; International audience; In the 1960s, Great Britain underwent a series of profound changes in both social and cultural terms. For some, these changes were the result of a growth in liberal values and individual freedom, while critics saw this as the rise of a permissiveness which was destroying national values and morals. Politicians’ sexual peccadilloes were now being revealed, while satirical publications and television programmes were daring to challenge and ridicule both politicians and the Establishment, a thing previously unheard of, just not quite the done thing. The ‘Celtic fringe’ was making its voice heard far more, either through civil rights demonst…
Ausencias relevantes en la teoria del curriculum.
2020
Se señalan en el artículo algunas ausencias significativas sobre el modo en que la teoría se ha venido enfrentando al currículum, con especial énfasis sobre lo ocurrido en el contexto español. La historia política del currículum, la mirada desde estudios culturales, la producción de los regímenes de verdad en el currículum, la falta de problematización de las narrativas modernas que inspiran e impregnan la producción curricular o la oportunidad de considerar la ciudad como currículum son algunos de los aspectos que se comentan. Some significant absences are pointed out in the article about the way in which the theory has been confronting the curriculum, with special emphasis on what happene…
Kinship between cities and peoples
2012
As Herodotus explains (8.144.2), the whole Greek-speaking people was envisaged like one big “family” composed of kinsmen. Nevertheless, within this wide “family” there were various degrees of blood relationship due to the ancestral subdivision of the Hellenic people into the early gene of Aiolians, Ionians, and Dorians. Keywords: ancient Greece; assimilation and exclusion; cultural history; Greek history; nations and peoples; political history
Ethnic or Socio-Economic Conflict? Political Interpretations of the Rwandan Crisis
1996
AbstractRather than trace the political history of the conflict in Rwanda I will focus on the different interpretations of the conflict by the actors involved. The external identification of the Tutsi refugees as 'Banyarwanda' corresponds with the ideology and self image of the RPF who were recruited among the refugees and their descendants who fled to Uganda during and after 1959. The RPF presents itself as a democratic organisation speaking for all Rwandans and its anti-ethnic stance is designed not only to appeal to Rwandans but also to a Western audience. The RPF's opponent, the Habyarimana government in Rwanda, presented itself as the heir of the 1959 'peasant revolution' which had rep…
L'histoire des politiques culturelles des villes
1997
The history of cities' cultural policies, Philippe Poivrier. At the crossroads of the renewal of political history and cultural history, a new research area has been open to historians after a heavy occupation of the land by sociologists and political scientists. The article goes into the methodological stakes that accompany the examination of this public treatment of culture. A new approach of the social stakes of our societies could take effect, by giving to contemporary history a goal that has not been very much in evidence until now: the well-argued study of locality.
Crítica de la política e historia política de las mujeres en Italia: un balance problemático
2006
This essay aims to contribute to the process of rethinking thirty years of Italian history. These long thirty years began with the 1968 student movement and the workers’ movement in the factories of Northern Italy in the “hot autumn” of 1969, then saw the cross-fertilization of the feminist movement and the battles for civil rights (divorce and abortion), and ended with terrorism and its repression, leading to an estrangement between politics and civil society and, in particular, to women’s drastic disaffection from politics. In considering these themes Italian historiography has recently been seeking to try to understand the “anomalies” of the Italian case and of the country’s contradictor…
GOLD MINING AND JULA INFLUENCE IN PRECOLONIAL SOUTHERN BURKINA FASO
2007
ABSTRACTThe ‘Lobi’ region in what is today southern Burkina Faso is frequently mentioned in historical accounts of gold mining in West Africa. However, little is known about the actual location of the gold mines or about the way gold mining and trade were organized in precolonial times. This article points out that some previous hypotheses about precolonial gold mining, trade and the sociopolitical organization of this region are flawed, partly because ‘Lobi’, as the name for both the region and its inhabitants, is misleading. In fact, the references to ‘Lobi’ merge two distinct gold-producing zones along the Mouhoun river, about 200 km from each other. The present-day populations of southe…
