Chronicles of a Village (The Margellos World Republic of Letters)
by Nguyen Thanh HienAn incantatory poetic novel that interweaves the legends, tragedies, and histories of a village in Vietnam &“The book bursts with characters, poetry, philosophy, romance, violence, and struggle. . . . A dreamlike, original, strangely hopeful book.&”—Kirkus Reviews At the foot of Mun Mountain in central Vietnam, a self-appointed scribe collects the stories of his neighbors—tales of love, nature, and war—and weaves them into a surrealist history of their farming community. In crystalline fragments resembling prose poems, the scribe eternalizes the vanishing beauty and tragic transformation of the village—its sacred forests, astonishing animals, mythical figures, and human lives nurtured by a profound love for soil and sky, as well as its catastrophes: ecological destruction, political purges, asphyxiating modernity, violence, and indoctrination in the name of progress. Nguyen Thanh Hien&’s Chronicles of a Village, the writer&’s first work to be translated into English, is an elegy for a place and a people; a profound meditation on how history is created, destroyed, manipulated, and rewritten; and a tribute to the beauty and "fatal historical disabilities of a land."

Gouvernance communautaire: Innovations dans le Canada français hors Québec
by Marie Hélène Eddie Éric Champagne Mariette Mulaire Gina S. Comeau Guy Chiasson Simon Letendre Mathieu Voyer Thierry Arseneau Jean Léger Nathalie Plante Christine Dallaire Magalie-France Houle Éric Forgues d'Ornellia-N.J. Moyabi MampoumbouLa gouvernance communautaire, comme la gouvernance publique et privée, doit innover, et apprendre de manière continue à faire mieux en faisant autrement. Or, cela ne peut se faire que grâce à la collaboration, et celle-ci va prendre des formes diverses selon le milieu. L'innovation sociale adopte aussi des formes différentes en divers points d'un pays comme le Canada fait de sociétés distinctes par la langue, la culture et les arrangements institutionnels. Le fait que le monde communautaire se décline au pluriel implique que la collaboration est souvent plus difficile et que l'innovation se répand moins vite que dans les autres secteurs. Ce livre explore l'innovation dans le monde communautaire du Canada français hors Québec, dans le but de faire une certaine reconnaissance de l'état des lieux et de voir jusqu à quel point ces sociétés distinctes ont innové différemment, et peuvent apprendre l'une de l'autre et collaborer malgré leurs différences tant dans le monde franco-canadien comme tel qu'à travers les barrières culturelles et linguistiques. Universitaires et praticiens font rapport sur diverses expériences au plan national, en Nouvelle-Écosse, au Nouveau-Brunswick, en Ontario et au Manitoba, et sur les défis de la production et de la transmission des savoirs communautaires.
Autour de Chantal Mouffe: Le politique en conflit
by Chantal Mouffe Marie-Christine Doran Stéphane Vibert Xavier Bériault Claude Denis Dan Furukawa Marques Robert Sparling Guillaume GarretaChantal Mouffe est une figure majeure dans l’analyse du politique contemporain. Elle rejette les simplismes de l’économisme et de la lutte des classes comme seuls mécanismes déterminants dans les antagonismes au cœur de la société, et défend la nécessité d’une démocratie radicale et du pluralisme agonistique afin de permettre à tous les antagonismes de s’exprimer au sein de l’espace politique. L’objectif principal de cet ouvrage est d’ouvrir un espace de dialogue sur son œuvre, et en particulier sur sa compréhension du politique. Les concepts de démocratie radicale et de politique agonistique sont des notions clés dans ses analyses. On voudra comprendre comment ils peuvent nous aider à repenser le politique dans la conjoncture actuelle.
50 ans de bilinguisme officiel: Défis, analyses et témoignages
by Sherry Simon Stéphane Dion Maurice Beaudin Mark Power Éric Forgues M Graham Fraser Pierre Curzi M François Boileau Roger Turenne Raymond-M. Hébert Michelle Landry Ingride Roy Matthieu LeBlanc Perri Ravon Albert Nolette Andy AnstettIl y a maintenant 50 ans, la Commission royale d’enquête sur le bilinguisme et le biculturalisme publiait son rapport final. Fruit de recherches innovantes et de consultations publiques dans tout le pays, truffé de données et de concepts, celui-ci traçait la route pour l’établissement d’une politique cohérente de bilinguisme officiel, qui allait changer profondément et durablement le visage du Canada. À la volonté d’affirmer le caractère officiellement bilingue du pays s’est greffée celle, non moins persistante, de faire du français la langue commune des Québécois. Cet ouvrage jette un regard critique sur le contenu et les conséquences du rapport. Il résulte de la tenue en 2013, un peu partout au pays, d’une série de conférences explorant l’impact de ces travaux. On y retrouve donc des analyses portant sur le processus de la Commission, sur ses principaux acteurs ainsi que sur le contenu particulier de certains volumes du rapport. Le livre se présente en trois parties : en premier lieu, les progrès accomplis depuis la parution du rapport et les défis à surmonter tels qu’ils sont appréhendés par les contributeurs, ce qui ne cesse pas de provoquer des débats; dans une deuxième partie, des analyses et des études portant sur des problématiques abordées par la Commission, pour vérifier le chemin parcouru depuis; et enfin, des témoignages, dont une conversation fascinante entre le premier commissaire aux langues officielles, M. Keith Spicer, et le commissaire en poste au moment de la parution de l’ouvrage, M. Graham Fraser. À la fois politique, érudit et mémoriel, ce livre saura captiver toute personne qui s’intéresse aux débats linguistiques au Canada et dans le monde. Il apporte une contribution originale et précieuse à l’étude d’un moment fondateur de l’évolution du Canada.
Corazón de Dixie: Mexicanos in the U.S. South since 1910 (The David J. Weber Series in the New Borderlands History)
by Julie M. WeiseWhen Latino migration to the U.S. South became increasingly visible in the 1990s, observers and advocates grasped for ways to analyze "new" racial dramas in the absence of historical reference points. However, as this book is the first to comprehensively document, Mexicans and Mexican Americans have a long history of migration to the U.S. South. Corazon de Dixie recounts the untold histories of Mexicanos' migrations to New Orleans, Mississippi, Arkansas, Georgia, and North Carolina as far back as 1910. It follows Mexicanos into the heart of Dixie, where they navigated the Jim Crow system, cultivated community in the cotton fields, purposefully appealed for help to the Mexican government, shaped the southern conservative imagination in the wake of the civil rights movement, and embraced their own version of suburban living at the turn of the twenty-first century. Rooted in U.S. and Mexican archival research, oral history interviews, and family photographs, Corazon de Dixie unearths not just the facts of Mexicanos' long-standing presence in the U.S. South but also their own expectations, strategies, and dreams.
Using and Curating Archaeological Collections (SAA Archaeology in Action)
by Mark S. WarnerAll archaeologists have responsibilities to support the collections they produce, yet budgeting for and managing collections over the length of a project and beyond is not part of most archaeologists’ training. While this book in the SAA Press Archaeology in Action Series highlights major challenges that archaeologists and curators face with regard to collections, it also stresses the values, uses, and benefits of collections. It also demonstrates the continued significance of archaeological collections to the profession, tribes, and the public and provides critical resources for archaeologists to carry out their responsibilities. Many lament that the archaeological record is finite and disappearing. In this context, collections are even more important to preserve for future use, and this book will help all stakeholders do so.
