Anthropologie des pratiques politiques Mohawks de Kahnawake, Canada : pouvoir, identités, subjectivations / Anthropology of Kahnawá : ke Mohawks' political practices - Canada : power, identities, subjectification

Grienenberger, Gilles 28 September 2016 (has links)
Nous proposons dans cette thèse une étude des phénomènes politiques dans la réserve mohawk de Kahnawake au Canada. Nous fondons notre interrogation sur des données croisées du symbolique et de la praxis, du perçu/vécu et des dimensions pragmatiques étayées par différents aspects de la culture matérielle. Ce projet d'anthropologie politique, qui fait des ontologies, des phénomènes de subjectivation et des pratiques les axes principaux de recherche, nous invite à investir autant les cadres normatifs et idéels que les dynamiques structurelles qui animent la communauté et ces différentes institutions. Nous souhaitions nous détacher des études qui se fondent sur des paradigmes construits à partir d'une dyade antagoniste tradition/modernité, authenticité/rupture, etc. De même, nous avons rompu avec des travaux qui pointent essentiellement les aspects fonctionnels du politique et des institutions. En serrant au plus près ce vaste ensemble, qui embrasse une variété de champs, nous postulons l'existence d'une mécanique sociale, politique et spirituelle cohérente capable d'épouser les courbes irrégulières de la vie de cette population, marquée par des angles aigus qu'ont dessiné la colonisation et ses conséquences. / In this thesis, we propose a study of political phenomena in the mohawk reservation of Kahnawake in Canada. We base our interrogation on data crossed between symbolism and praxis, the perceived and the experienced and the pragmatic dimensions supported by different aspects of material culture. This project of political anthropology which makes ontologies, subjectification phenomena and practices the central theme of its research, invites us to invest normative and ideational frameworks as much as the structural dynamics that animate the community and its different institutions. We wish to detach ourselves from studies that base themselves on paradigms built from such antagonistic dyads as tradition/modernity, authenticity/rupture, etc. Furthermore, we have broken off from works that essentially point to the functional aspects of the political and the institutional. In closely tightening up this vast ensemble that embraces a variety of fields, we postulate the existence of a coherent social, political and spiritual mechanism, able to espouse the irregular curves of this population’s life, marked by the sharp angles drawn by colonization and its consequences.

Particularly Responsible: Everyday Ethical Navigation, Concrete Relationships, and Systemic Oppression

Chapman, Christopher Stephen 20 August 2012 (has links)
In this dissertation, I articulate what I call a personal-is-political ethics, suggesting that the realm of human affairs long called ethics is inseparable from that which is today normatively called psychology. Further, I suggest that these names for this shared realm are situated in different discursive traditions which, therefore, provide different parameters for possible action and understanding. In my exploration of what it is to be human, I strategically centre ethical transgressions, particularly those that are mappable onto systemic forms of oppression. I explore personal-is-political enactments of sexism, ableism, racism, colonization, classism, ageism, and geopolitics, including situations in which several of these intersect with one another and those in which therapeutic, pedagogical, or parenting hierarchies also intersect with them. Without suggesting this is ‘the whole story,’ I closely read people’s narrations of ethical transgressions that they – that we – commit. I claim that such narrations shape our possibilities for harming others, for taking responsibility, and for intervening in others’ lives in an attempt to have them take responsibility (e.g., therapy with abuse perpetrators and critical pedagogy). I work to demonstrate the ethical and political importance of: the impossibility of exhaustive knowledge, the illimitable and contingent power relations that are ever-present and give shape to what we can know, and the ways our possibilities in life are constituted through particular contact with others. I explore ethical transgressions I have committed, interrogating these events in conversation with explorations of resonant situations in published texts, as well as with research conversations with friends about their ethical transgressions and how they make sense of them. I tentatively advocate for, and attempt to demonstrate, ways of governing ourselves when we are positioned ‘on top’ of social hierarchies – in order to align our responses and relationships more closely with radical political commitments.
