Ethnic and religious identity-markers compete with class and gender as principles shaping the organization and classification of everyday life. But how are an individual''s identity-based conflicts transformed and redefined? Identity is a specific form of social capital, hence contexts where multiple identities obtain necessarily come with a hierarchy, with differences, and hence with a certain degree of hostility. The contributors to this book examine the rapid transformation of identity hierarchies affecting Iran, Pakistan and Turkey, a symptom of political fractures, social-economic transformation, and new regimes of subjectification. They focus on the state''s role in organizing access to resources, with its institutions often being the main target of demands, rather than competing social groups. Such con- texts enable entrepreneurs of collective action to exploit identity differences, which in turn help them to expand the scale of their mobilization and to align local and national conflicts. The authors also examine how identity-based violence may be autonomous in certain contexts, and serve to prime collective action and transform the relations between communities.

In 2011, hundreds of thousands of Syrians marched peacefully to demand democratic reforms. Within months, repression forced them to take arms and set up their own institutions. Two years later, the inclusive nature of the opposition had collapsed, and the PKK and radical jihadist groups rose to prominence. In just a few years, Syria turned into a full-scale civil war involving major regional and world powers. How has the war affected Syrian society? How does the fragmentation of Syria transform social and sectarian hierarchies? How does the war economy work in a country divided between the regime, the insurgency, the PKK and the Islamic State? Written by authors who have previously worked on the Iraqi, Afghan, Kurd, Libyan and Congolese armed conflicts, it includes extensive interviews and direct observations. A unique book, which combines rare field experience of the Syrian conflict with new theoretical insights on the dynamics of civil wars.

Au-delà des habituels lieux communs sur les "guerres ethniques", ce livre de Gilles Dorronsoro montre comment une société essentiellement rurale et non industrielle a connu une mutation accélérée dans et par la guerre. L''échec des projets modernistes, communiste et islamiste, a permis l''émergence , en 1994, du mouvement des Tâlebân qui a su capitaliser la lassitude de la population pour instaurer un Etat fondamentaliste dominé par les religieux.

La défaite des Taliban dans le sillage des attentats du 11 septembre ouvre deux décennies d’investissement occidental en Afghanistan. Des centaines de milliards, pour l’essentiel consacrés à l’entretien des forces occidentales, des dizaines de milliers de morts, dont plusieurs milliers de la coalition, montrent l’importance de ce conflit pour les Etats-Unis qui en font le symbole de leur hégémonie mondiale.Mais, derrière les discours sur la construction d’une « démocratie de marché », se profile un gouvernement transnational qui contourne les acteurs afghans au point d’interdire tout processus démocratique, couvre des fraudes électorales massives, routinise la captation des ressources au profit des entreprises occidentales et des élites afghanes. Les tensions communautaires et sociales s’accroissent à un point jusque-là inconnu dans la société afghane. Les Taliban, capitalisant sur le ressentiment populaire contre les élites au pouvoir, mettent en échec une alliance occidentale qui dissimule, derrière une augmentation des moyens, son incapacité à définir une stratégie cohérente. Après vingt ans de conflit, al-Qaïda est toujours présent en Afghanistan, et le retrait américain ne fait qu’ouvrir une nouvelle période d’une guerre civile vieille de quarante ans.Ce nouvel essai de Gilles Dorronsoro propose une analyse critique impitoyable des impasses de l’expertise orientaliste et sécurocrate dont la portée comparative, bien au-delà du seul cas afghan, est d’une haute actualité.

Politiques de la violence

Organiser la lutte de la Colombie au Pakistan

Si les violences politiques sont parfois le fait d’individus isolés, elles sont le plus souvent des actions organisées, c’est-à-dire inspirées, parfois planifiées, prises en charge, voire produites par des organisations dont les objectifs sont politiques. Les violences d’origine étatique sont, de loin, les plus meurtrières, mais celles des groupes non-étatiques demeurent une composante essentielle des dynamiques politiques contemporaines, partout dans le monde. Cet ouvrage met, plus particulièrement, l’accent sur ce deuxième type de violences, que la théorie politique considère, par principe, comme illégitime, mais qui, du point de vue des acteurs qui la perpétuent, peut se justifier, notamment quand il s’agit de protéger le statut d’un groupe dominant ou, à l’inverse, d’imposer les revendications d’un groupe marginalisé.
