Founded in 1952 with only a handful of permanent fellows, is has grown into France’s most preeminent social science research institution on international affairs, foreign societies and transnational challenges. CERI’s current faculty of 62 full-time and 22 affiliated fellows consists of sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, economists, legal scholars and historians. They conduct their research in five major thematic areas – security and risks, international politics, capitalism and globalization, political systems, identities and politics –, with a strong emphasis on fieldwork and comparative methods. Regional expertise is one CERI’s main fortes, in particular in the field of Asian, Middle-Eastern, Latin American and, increasingly, African studies. 1 Bourses Fernand Braudel-IFER Its excellence in scholarship regularly brings to CERI a number of visitors, advanced doctoral students, academics and foreign policy practitioners, from across the globe.

Collège d’Etudes Mondiales (CEM) Le Collège d’études mondiales de Paris is a new research institution founded in 2011 by the Fondation Maison des sciences de l’homme at the initiative of his General Director, internationally renowned French sociologist Michel Wieviorka. The main thrust of the Collège is to analyze the major transformations of the contemporary world with updated intellectual tools that go way beyond “methodological nationalism” and to propose new paradigms that reach a higher level of “global thinking” on cultural change and social justice while taking into full account individual and collective actors’ subjectivity and cultural orientations. Through its unique programme combining Research Chairs, Research Initiatives and Seminars Series, the Collège offers first-class conditions to high-level international scholars to develop innovative and multidisciplinary research programmes in Paris. The Collège is structured around three major areas — (a) democracy and collective action; (b) the production of new norms and frontiers; (c) global risks — and develops its activities through the work and interaction between its fifteen Research Chairs. http://www.college-etudesmondiales.org/fr DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst) The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is the largest funding organisation in the world supporting the international exchange of students and scholars. Since it was founded in 1925, more than 1.5 million scholars in Germany and abroad have received DAAD funding. It is a registered association and its members are German institutions of higher education and student bodies. Its activities go far beyond simply awarding grants and scholarships. The DAAD supports the internationalisation of German universities, promotes German studies and the German language abroad, assists developing countries in establishing effective universities and advises decision makers on matters of cultural, education and development policy. http://www.daad.de/en/index.html 2 Bourses Fernand Braudel-IFER École Centrale Paris Ecole Centrale is a French university-level institution (grande école) in the field of engineering.

  • Social Conflict
    Social conflict Michel Wieviorka l’Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, France abstract Numerous approaches in the social sciences either refuse to consider or minimize the impor - tance of conflict in community, or else replace it with a Spencerian vision of the social struggle. Between these two extremes there is considerable space for us to consider conflict as a relationship; this is what differentiates it from modes of behaviour involving war and rupture. Sociology suggests different ways of differentiating various modes of social conflict. The question is not only theoretical. It is also empirical and historical: have we not moved, in a certain number of countries at least, from the industrial era dom - inated by a structural social conflict in which the working-class movement confronted the masters of labour, to a new era dominated by other types of conflict with distinctly more cultural orientations? Whatever the type of analysis, the very concept of conflict must be clearly distinguished from that of crisis, even if materially the two coexist in social reality. keywords action ◆ class struggle ◆ crisis ◆ social conflict ◆ social movements ◆ violence Is social conflict central to social life? Numerous approaches in the social sciences consider does Ludwig Gumplowicz (1883), who spoke of the that society constitutes an entity or a whole and ‘struggle of the races’. emphasize its political unity, which may often be rep - By refusing to adopt either of these two types of resented by the state, and its cultural and historical vision, at least in their most extreme versions, by unity, to which the idea of nation frequently refers.

  • The Resurgence of Social Movements
    E-journal promoted by the Campus for Peace, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya http://journal-of-conflictology.uoc.edu ARTICLE The Resurgence of Social Movements Michel Wieviorka Submitted: December 2011 Accepted: June 2012 Published: November 2012 Abstract Starting in the early nineteen seventies, there were mainly two opposed perspectives in the sociological debate on social movements, illustrated on the one hand by Charles Tilly and on the other by Alain Touraine, which this article follows. The concept of ‘social movement’ has been used to analyse the working class movement, the new social movements and global movements. Is it useful to analyse the struggles that developed recently within the Muslim and/or Arab world, and the actors that have been called indignados in Spain and that appeared in many countries? Is there any unity in these movements?

This question does not refer solely to the utility of the social sciences and their possibly emancipatory role but also raises the issue of how soci- ological knowledge is produced, tested and demonstrated. We need to consider the status of this knowledge and the conditions under which we may speak of ‘sci- ence’. How researchers in social sciences conceive of their relationship with the public and the actors is linked with the way in which we validate our assertions as science.

  • Michel Wieviorka on Racism in Europe Today
    ISSUE 35 WINTER 2013 Editor’S mESSagE ESA is a growing organisation that encompass- es a broad range of researchers coming from across Europe (and beyond). We include those at all levels of the academic career scale, from doctoral students to emeritus/emerita profes- sors. Furthermore, we are a diverse association that brings together a wide range research interests. Our thirty-six Re- search Networks cover all manner of subjects from research methods to sociological theory to specific foci such as rac- ism and antisemitism, gender studies, and ageing, to name but a few. Whilst this diversity brings with it many opportuni- ties to collaborate and develop sociological research beyond our local or national settings, we must remember that our diversity also presents challenges. Coming from different institutional backgrounds, national contexts, et cetera; we find that, on occasion, conflicts or miscommunications may arise. This was indeed the case at our General Assembly, which took place on August 30th during our 11th Conference in Turn, Italy. As I sat at this meeting, I witnessed many members of our association expressing their concerns over the proposed changes to our statutes. I understand that such discussion raises sensitive issues, but we must measure our words and engage in a positive discussion. As the great American statesman Abraham Lincoln once stated, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” This is true for us today. Sociol- ogy and the social sciences at large face substantial chal- lenges as a result of the global financial crisis, which has had a considerable impact in Europe. This financial crisis resulted Sarah-ji, Flickr in substantial cuts in research funding for the social sciences as national funding bodies have tightened their belts.

Its ubiquity begs the question of analytical differentiation. This article seeks to open the field by suggesting a fivefold typology: violence as loss of meaning; violence as non-sense; violence as cruelty; fundamental violence; and founding violence. The idea of analytically differentiating between types of violence cannot avoid the fact that sometimes victims are also perpetrators in other ways, and that even violent activity is not conducted only by essentially violent subjects. Violence needs to be connected to modernity and to problems of identity formation and not only to personal or collective risk. KEYWORDS actors • desubjectivation • perpetrators • subjectivation • victims • violence Violence evokes three main types of response from its witnesses.
