• A. Lamesa, C. Sciuto, K. Whitaker, A. Yamaç (eds.) - Carved in Stone. The archaeology of rock-cut sites and stone quarries

    The study of marks left by humans on stone outcrops is an interdisciplinary endeavour that entails geology, history of techniques, ethnography as well as experimental archaeology. Moreover, the investigation of carved landscapes contributes to the understanding of the complex relationship between human groups and their environments. This volume represents an overview of different case studies of rock-cut sites and quarries, approached as knots in the network of people-stone interactions. The book is the result of a long exchange developed during European Archaeologist Association conference sessions aimed at turning the attention of the international scientific community towards the relevance of the archaeological study of rock-cut sites and quarries, and to promote the creation of a European network of researchers working on the subject.

  • S. Poyraz & L. Dissard (eds.) - Guerres de Syrie et dynamiques kurdes (2011-2021)

    Solène Poyraz et Laurent Dissard (coord.), Guerres de Syrie et dynamiques kurdes (2011-2021), Cahier d'Histoire Immédiate, N°56, Décembre 2021.

    Faire quelque chose, marquer le coup, ne pas laisser la voix à des velléités réductrices et nationalistes, voilà ce qui nous a motivés à penser ce numéro, à l’occasion des 10 ans des révolutions que l’on a appelées « arabes » mais qui ont affecté le monde et ses sociétés. En tant que chercheur.e.s, beaucoup de supposés et de raccourcis nous ont dérangés dans le traitement de ces processus, on avait donc des choses à dire, il nous restait à choisir un angle d’approche. Solène Poyraz, politologue, travaillant sur les effets de la crise syrienne sur la Turquie, et Laurent Dissard, anthropologue de la Turquie et du Moyen-Orient, choisissent alors d’aborder une thématique cruciale qui semble avoir changé la donne dans la crise syrienne : les Kurdes. Une thématique omniprésente mais souvent traitée à travers un prisme ethnique et macro-politique, ne permettant pas de saisir les éléments du débat.
