Résumé:
Dans la continuité des précédents manifestes, le Muséum réunit un comité d’experts sur un sujet précis. Ici, anthropologue, éco-éthologue, primatologue, psychologue, sociologue, historien, etc., sont convoqués autour d’un même objectif : expliquer ce que recouvre le terme de violence, comprendre ses origines, mais aussi analyser les causes de ses multiples formes en s’appuyant sur des faits scientifiques. Cette approche pluridisciplinaire permet d'affirmer que nos sociétés européennes de ce début de XXIe siècle n’ont jamais été aussi pacifistes, malgré le sentiment généralisé de vivre dans un monde violent.

While the construction of architecture has a place in architectural discourse, its destruction, generally seen as incompatible with the very idea of "culture," has been neglected in theoretical and historical discussion.

Résumé:
While the construction of architecture has a place in architectural discourse, its destruction, generally seen as incompatible with the very idea of "culture," has been neglected in theoretical and historical discussion. Responding to this neglect, Herscher examines the case of the former Yugoslavia and in particular, Kosovo, where targeting architecture has been a prominent dimension of political violence. Focusing on the particular sites where violence is inflicted and where its subjects and objects are articulated, the book traces the intersection of violence and architecture from socialist modernization, through ethnic and nationalist conflict, to postwar reconstruction.

Résumé:
Ce livre trace un chemin artistique qui mène à une thématique philosophique en prise avec notre réalité. Il parle de la violence, notion qui s’invite tragiquement dans le fil de notre actualité faite de conflits, d’émeutes, de discriminations, de rapports de force. L’œuvre d’art est alors, selon les auteurs, une porte d’entrée dans la réflexion, une fenêtre ouverte sur la discussion. Dans cette argumentation, l’œuvre est bien davantage qu’un marqueur culturel, elle capte l’attention, fait sensation, donne à sentir, ressentir ce qui est à penser, en un mot elle est exemplaire. Ce parcours valorise, en quelques chapitres, plus d’une vingtaine d’œuvres livrées au regard croisé de l’historienne de l’art et du philosophe.

Résumé:
Judith Butler’s new book shows how an ethic of nonviolence must be connected to a broader political struggle for social equality. Further, it argues that nonviolence is often misunderstood as a passive practice that emanates from a calm region of the soul, or as an individualist ethical relation to existing forms of power. But, in fact, nonviolence is an ethical position(...)

Résumé:
Judith Butler’s new book shows how an ethic of nonviolence must be connected to a broader political struggle for social equality. Further, it argues that nonviolence is often misunderstood as a passive practice that emanates from a calm region of the soul, or as an individualist ethical relation to existing forms of power. But, in fact, nonviolence is an ethical position found in the midst of the political field. An aggressive form of nonviolence accepts that hostility is part of our psychic constitution, but values ambivalence as a way of checking the conversion of aggression into violence. One contemporary challenge to a politics of nonviolence points out that there is a difference of opinion on what counts as violence and nonviolence. The distinction between them can be mobilized in the service of ratifying the state’s monopoly on violence. Considering nonviolence as an ethical problem within a political philosophy requires a critique of individualism as well as an understanding of the psychosocial dimensions of violence. Butler draws upon Foucault, Fanon, Freud, and Benjamin to consider how the interdiction against violence fails to include lives regarded as ungrievable. By considering how “racial phantasms” inform justifications of state and administrative violence, Butler tracks how violence is often attributed to those who are most severely exposed to its lethal effects. The struggle for nonviolence is found in movements for social transformation that reframe the grievability of lives in light of social equality and whose ethical claims follow from an insight into the interdependency of life as the basis of social and political equality.

Résumé:
Is Europe a place, a space, or a temporary community of shared interests? As a political space, Europe is as conflictual as its debated constitution. It is a construct that must be continuously negotiated, and its longing for an architecture of strategic encounters parallels an increasing economical power of the private sector, while the sovereignty of European nation(...)

Résumé:
Is Europe a place, a space, or a temporary community of shared interests? As a political space, Europe is as conflictual as its debated constitution. It is a construct that must be continuously negotiated, and its longing for an architecture of strategic encounters parallels an increasing economical power of the private sector, while the sovereignty of European nation states attenuate. This book, edited by London-based architect and author Markus Miessen, marks an extension of the discursive space he has produced as contribution to the 2007 Lyon Biennial. He has pulled together a heterogeneous group of interlocutors to lead conversations on alternative notions of participation, the inconsistence between democratic concepts, and what it means to live in Europe today.

Résumé:
From the fourteenth century on, the artifacts of Western visual culture became increasingly violent. Destroyed faces, dissolved human shapes, devilish doppelgängers of the sacred: violence made real people nameless exemplars of formless, hideous horror. In Defaced, the historian Valentin Groebner provides a highly sophisticated historical, cultural, and political model for understanding how late-medieval images and narratives of “indescribable” violence functioned.
