Jean-Luc Racine Pour Claire et Jean-Louis Pour Jean À Pierre Identité “réfugié”, identité transversale Remerciements La thèse est une longue épreuve solitaire, mais elle est également un grand travail d’équipe. Mon équipe fut formidable, voici quelques-uns de ses membres : François Robinne suit mon travail depuis ma maîtrise et le dirige depuis mon DEA. Très encourageant, attentif et clairvoyant, il a su me pousser dans mes derniers retranchements et m’apporter un appui sans faille dans les moments de doute. Il a joué un rôle important dans la mise au point du cadre conceptuel de cette thèse, sans compter que ce fut un grand plaisir de travailler sous sa direction. Pôleth/M. Wadbled m’a inspirée, aidée, conseillée, épaulée depuis mes premiers pas en sociologie jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Ses remarques, ses questions et ses suggestions ont beaucoup apporté à ma réflexion. Michel Agier, par sa bienveillance et sa disponibilité, m’a encouragée à progresser dans cette recherche sur les réfugiés. Les nombreuses opportunités qu’il m’a offertes ont joué un rôle important dans mon cheminement intellectuel. Mes parents ne se sont pas contentés de m’apporter un soutien indéfectible, ils m’ont aidée dans la réalisation de ce travail, en particulier ma mère, Claire Boucher, dont la fine plume a grandement contribué à améliorer ce manuscrit, et qui a passé avec moi les derniers jours, les meilleurs, avant la remise du mémoire. Soucieuse de ne pas rendre jaloux mon père, Jean-Louis Baujard, je l’ai sollicité à chaque fois que des chiffres se présentaient et l’ai entraîné dans de savants calculs de réfugiés. De nombreuses autres personnes ont contribué à améliorer ce travail par leurs relectures, commentaires, critiques, conseils judicieux : Le personnel et les chercheurs du Centre de Sciences Humaines, sous la direction de Véronique Dupont, et tout particulièrement Samuel Berthet et Cyril Robin, ainsi qu’Éric Leclerc, Bertrand Lefebvre et Stéphanie Tawa-Lama. Mes amis chercheurs, en particulier Grégoire Schlemmer, Renaud Egreteau, Julie Humeau et Raphaël Voix, sans oublier l’Association Jeunes Études Indiennes. Le personnel et les chercheurs de l’Institut de Recherche sur le Sud-Est Asiatique et de la Maison Asie Pacifique, et surtout Françoise Douaire-Marsaudon, Christian Paris, Sabine Partouche et Louise Pichard. Marie-José Canelli et le personnel du HCR. Rahul Bhasin et mes autres amis de Delhi. Marie, Yvan et Samuel qui m’ont donné l’asile et choyée pendant le dernier mois de rédaction, et tous ceux que je ne peux nommer ici mais dont le soutien, de près ou de loin, fut très précieux. Enfin et surtout, les réfugiés que j’ai côtoyés pendant ces cinq années et qui sont pour beaucoup devenus des amis. 1 Identité “réfugié”, identité transversale Sommaire REMERCIEMENTS.....................................................................................................................1 SOMMAIRE...................................................................................................................................2 INTRODUCTION .........................................................................................................................5 LA CATEGORIE « REFUGIE » COMME OBJET D’ETUDE ANTHROPOLOGIQUE ..............................5 CHOIX METHODOLOGIQUES ..................................................................................................... 38 CHAPITRE 1 LES REFUGIES EN INDE ET A DELHI : CHOIX ET CONTRAINTES………………………………………………………………………………….48 1-1 LE CHOIX DES REFUGIES POUR L’INDE ET POUR DELHI .............................................. 48 A -

Dionisopoulos, and Steven R. Goldzwig 8 I do not believe that any of the Presidents who have been involved with Viet- nam, Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, or President Nixon, foresaw or desired that the United States would become involved in a large scale war in Asia. But the fact remains that a steady progression of small decisions and actions over a period of 20 years had forestalled a clear-cut decision by the President or by the President and Congress—decision as to whether the defense of South Vietnam and involvement in a great war were necessary to the security and best interest of the United States. —Senator John Sherman Cooper (R-KY), Congressional Record, 1970 n his 1987 doctoral thesis, General David Petraeus wrote of Vietnam: “We do not take the time to understand the nature of the society in which we are f ght- Iing, the government we are supporting, or the enemy we are f ghting.”1 After World War II, when the United States chose Vietnam as an area for nation building as part of its Cold War strategy, little was known about that exotic land.

  • Philatelic Propaganda U.S. Postage Stamps During the Cold War
    RESEARCH NOTE Philatelic Propaganda U.S. Postage Stamps during the Cold War ✣ Matin Modarressi After the United States joined with eleven other countries in April 1949 to establish the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), U.S. officials had to convince the public that the formation of NATO was necessary to prevent another world war. This task, they believed, was likely to be difficult. After all, for more than 150 years the U.S. government had heeded George Washing- ton’s warning in his Farewell Address to “steer clear of permanent alliances.” One of the ways policymakers sought to increase public support for NATO was through the issuance of carefully designed postage stamps. Gov- ernments around the world have long recognized the potential for stamps to serve as tiny billboards for informing, educating, influencing, and sometimes even manipulating people. In the United States, proposals for stamp designs are typically considered two to three years in advance, demonstrating how much deliberation and planning goes into each stamp’s creation. During the Cold War, the U.S. Post Office Department (which was a cabinet-level de- partment until 1971) and the U.S. Department of State used stamps to help promote U.S. foreign policy. In 1952, for example, the United States issued a special commemorative stamp on the third anniversary of the formation of NATO. During a cere- mony at the White House, President Harry S. Truman, accompanied by the postmaster general and secretary of state, autographed a sheet of stamps to be presented to the leader of each of the other NATO countries.1 The stamp was then sold at post offices around the country for six months, in place of the regular 3-cent stamp (the domestic letter rate).2 The total number of NATO stamps printed was the second highest in U.S.

  • Cold War Engineering: Technical Infrastructure, Noise, And
    Cold War Engineering: Technical Infrastructure, Noise, and Geography in Radio Free Europe’s Operation in the 1950s and the 1960s By Georgi Georgiev Submitted to Central European University Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Istvan Rev Second Reader: Professor Constantin Iordachi CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2015 Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The thesis focuses on the archives of the Engineering department at Radio Free Europe in the 1950s and the 1960s. The text explores the political nature of technical issues outlining specific technological policies and political terms embedded in the radio operation. Using as a departure point some main aspects from the paradigm of Science and Technology Studies, the text highlights key non-living objects, communication links, and external institutions, which shaped the radio’s technical infrastructure described, throughout the Cold War, with the self-evident term “network.” The text concentrates on noise as an object of scientific research and technical work which led to the development of a peculiar political mode of hearing and mobilization of computer analysis of data for the purposes of the Cold War.

    Spotlight on First-Year Writing The Words of War: The Political Rhetoric of Barack Obama and John F. Kennedy Brett Feldman Boston University To many in my generation, the Cold War is a footnote relegated to the lifeless pages of histo - ry textbooks. Dead are the leaders who thundered across the highest stages of geopolitics. Gone is the sense of intense rivalry that dominated the preceding half-century. Hollow rings the yellow journalism that entranced the world’s population. Though the world may have changed and the Cold War ended with the death of communism, a new specter has risen—Islamic extremism. In this new geopolitical conflict, many of the themes that characterized the Cold War have reemerged. Recognizing these parallels, scholars continue to consider the rhetorical leadership demonstrated by politicians, then and now. On the one hand, some scholars maintain that the rhetoric of the Cold War was more fluid and less polarized, pointing to John F. Kennedy’s inaugural address as evi - dence. Others, like Columbia University professor of history Eric Foner, claim that the rhetoric of the Cold War was “a continuation of the battles of World War II.” Fifty years later, another generation, born in the waning days of the American century, has also come of age in an era of immense geopolitical turbulence. Afghanistan and Iraq have become our Bay of Pigs and, increasingly, our Vietnam. To us, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are major polit - ical events, shaping a whole generation’s outlook on politics. Our political leaders have used these events to create fear in their audiences and build political support.

  • Martin Nekola
    STUDIE Martin Nekola Polozapomenutý sociální demokrat. Životní osudy JUDr. Jaroslava Profouse ve světle jeho pamětí Je znám bezpočet příběhů lidí, kteří sloužili masarykovské první republice, bojova- securitas imperii li proti nacismu i komunismu, a nakonec zakončili svou dramatickou životní pouť v emigraci na Západě. Sice svobodní a z dosahu totalitního režimu, avšak daleko od vlasti, do které se už nikdy nemohli vrátit. Mnoha z nich – zajímavým osobnostem českého exilového politického, kulturního či vědeckého světa – však dosud historici nevěnovali náležitou pozornost. Patří k nim také dlouholetý činovník sociální demo- kracie JUDr. Jaroslav Profous (1908–1989).1 Víceméně souhrou náhod se podařilo zmapovat nejdůležitější etapy Profousova života, které by jinak zůstaly nadále skryty odborné veřejnosti. Autor textu nalezl během bádání v české národní budově (Bohemian National Hall) na Manhattanu část jeho pozůstalosti (jedna ze skladovacích místností v budově slouží zároveň jako úložiště pro několik beden neroztříděných archiválií), prošel ji a připravil průběžnou zprávu o stavu sbírky.2 Mezi mnoha zajímavými dokumenty k historii české komuni- ty v New Yorku a činnosti Sokola, české školy svobodomyslné, Rady svobodného čes- koslovenska, Společnosti pro vědy a umění, Amerického fondu pro pomoc českoslo- vensku a celé řady dalších významných organizací se zde také nacházely ručně psané poznámky, korespondence a texty Jaroslava Profouse. Následně se podařilo navázat kontakt s jeho synem Georgem, který laskavě poskytl k výzkumu nikdy nepubliko- vané otcovy ručně psané paměti o rozsahu okolo sta normostran. Jednotlivé kapitoly vznikaly od září 1965 až do počátku osmdesátých let. Profous psal text především jako vzpomínky pro vlastní potomstvo, nikoli s úmyslem jej publikovat. Přestože si zaslouží kritické hodnocení a odstup od někdy příliš subjektivního líčení událostí či chování jednotlivců, jsou tyto „rodinné“ memoáry mimořádně zajímavým a cenným pramenem, který osvětlí i některé méně známé souvislosti moderních dějin česko- slovenska.

  • Propaganda, Information and Psychological Warfare: Cold War and Hot
    PROPAGANDA, INFORMATION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE: COLD WAR AND HOT A List of Holdings Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library Page 1 of 69 Page 2 of 69 Compiled by: David J. Haight April 2008 INTRODUCTION Such terms as “information,” “political warfare,” “propaganda,” “psychological strategy,” and “psychological warfare” are frequently used, often interchangeably, but are difficult to define. In preparing this guide, the Library staff recognizing this difficulty, have, therefore, interpreted the meanings of these related words broadly to cover actions, activities, symbols, thoughts, beliefs and media aimed at influencing public opinion at home and abroad. Efforts to “win the hearts and minds” of people have been attempted through many means including such conventional methods as radio and television broadcasts, public speeches, leaflets, newspapers, and the like. In addition, these efforts have covered such things as trade fairs, cultural diplomacy (a term which may itself mean different things to different people), the People-to-People program as well as actions of governments themselves and developments within countries. For example, efforts to restore and protect civil rights for minority groups within the United States certainly had and continue to have an impact on opinion at home and abroad. Wide use of labels such as “Free World,” is, itself, a form of propaganda intended to influence particular audiences. One of the best known “psychological warriors,” C.D. Jackson, pointed out that psychological warfare (or any of its related terms) cannot be separated from the actions of the sponsoring entity (in Jackson’s case and in most instances listed herein, the United States Government). Instead, each policy implemented or action taken by the government has an impact on national and/or international opinion.
