Repenser L’Acadie Dans Le Monde - Études Comparées, Études Transnationales

~~59,63€~~ 53,67€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Petite société francophone concentrée dans le Canada atlantique, l’Acadie renvoie tout autant à une multiplicité de réalités socioculturelles, depuis l’ère de la colonisation en Mi’kmaki jusqu’aux grandes mutations contemporaines liées à la mondialisation. Du « Grand Dérangement » en 1755 est née une diaspora, parsemée aux quatre coins du monde atlantique, de la Louisiane à la France en passant par les Antilles. Depuis lors, l’Acadie ne cesse d’évoluer tout en se renouvelant.Repenser l’Acadie dans le monde met en lumière la relève en études acadiennes. En abordant l’Acadie comme terrain d’enquête parmi d’autres et en relation avec d’autres, cet ouvrage collectif repose sur un double pari : celui de la comparaison et celui des approches transnationales qui consistent à saisir le fait acadien dans ses interactions avec d’autres pays, peuples et institutions. Qui parle pour l’Acadie? Le Grand Dérangement a-t-il vraiment institué une rupture sans appel? Y a-t-il convergence ou divergence entre les objectifs formulés aux différentes échelles de l’Acadie et de sa diaspora? Ces questions révélatrices sont explorées sous l’éclairage de plusieurs disciplines.En ébranlant les idées reçues et les paradigmes établis, cet ouvrage présente une perspective indispensable pour comprendre la francophonie, et surtout le dynamisme, la persévérance et la diversité du peuple acadien.

Unveiling The Nation - The Politics Of Secularism In France And Quebec

de Emily Laxer

37,09€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Over the last few decades, politicians in Europe and North America have fiercely debated the effects of a growing Muslim minority on their respective national identities. Some of these countries have prohibited Islamic religious coverings in public spaces and institutions, while in others, legal restriction remains subject to intense political conflict. Seeking to understand these different outcomes, social scientists have focused on the role of countries' historically rooted models of nationhood and their attendant discourses of secularism. Emily Laxer's Unveiling the Nation problematizes this approach. Using France and Quebec as illustrative cases, she traces how the struggle of political parties for power and legitimacy shapes states' responses to Islamic signs. Drawing on historical evidence and behind-the-scenes interviews with politicians and activists, Laxer uncovers unseen links between structures of partisan conflict and the strategies that political actors employ when articulating the secular boundaries of the nation. In France's historically class-based political system, she demonstrates, parties on the left and the right have converged around a restrictive secular agenda in order to limit the siphoning of votes by the ultra-right. In Quebec, by contrast, the longstanding electoral salience of the "national question" has encouraged political actors to project highly conflicting images of the province's secular past, present, and future. At a moment of heightened debate in the global politics of religious diversity, Laxer's Unveiling the Nation sheds critical light on the way party politics and its related instabilities shape the secular boundaries of nationhood in diverse societies.

Revolutions Across Borders - Jacksonian America And The Canadian Rebellion

31,79€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Starting in 1837, rebels in Upper and Lower Canada revolted against British rule in an attempt to reform a colonial government that they believed was unjust. While this uprising is often perceived as a small-scale, localized event, Revolutions across Borders demonstrates that the Canadian Rebellion of 1837-38 was a major continental crisis with dramatic transnational consequences. In this groundbreaking study, contributors analyze the extent of the Canadian Rebellion beyond British North America and the turbulent Jacksonian period's influence on rebel leaders and the course of the rebellion. Exploring the rebellion's social and economic dimensions, its impact on American politics, policy-making, and the philosophy of manifest destiny, and the significant changes south of the border that influenced this Canadian uprising, the essays in this volume show just how malleable borderland relations were. Chapters investigate how Americans frustrated with the young republic considered an "alternative republic" in Canada, the new monetary system that the rebels planned to establish, how the rebellion played a major role in Martin Van Buren's defeat in the 1840 presidential election, and how America's changing economic alliances doomed the Canadian Rebellion before it even started. Reevaluating the implications of this transnational conflict, Revolutions across Borders brings new life and understanding to this turning point in the history of North America.

Distant Stage - Quebec, Brazil, And The Making Of Canada’S Cultural Diplomacy

de Eric Fillion

39,74€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 It is a little-known fact that the first cultural agreement Canada signed was with Brazil in 1944. The two countries’ rapprochement launched a flurry of activity connecting Montreal to Rio de Janeiro amid the turbulence of war and its aftermath. Why Brazil? And what could songs and paintings achieve that traditional diplomacy could not? Distant Stage examines the neglected histories of Canada-Brazil relations and the role played by culture in Canada’s pursuit of an international identity. The efforts of French-Canadian artists, intellectuals, and diplomats are at the heart of both. Eric Fillion demonstrates how music and the visual arts gave state and non-state actors new connections to the idea of nation, which in turn informed their sense of place in the world. Tracing the origins of Canadian cultural diplomacy to South America, the book underscores the significance of race and religion in the country’s international history, showing how Brazil served as a distant stage where Canadian identity politics and aspirations could play out. Both a timely invitation to think about cultural diplomacy as a critical practice and a reflection on the interplay between internationalism and nationalism, Distant Stage draws attention to the ambiguous yet essential roles played by artists in international and intercultural relations.
