Sommario/riassunto

L’ouvrage que publie Victorien Lavou Zoungbo prolonge et renforce quelques unes des hypothèses de lecture qu’il avait précédemment formulées dans Du migrant-nu au citoyen différé... (PUP, 2003) au sujet du rapport paradoxal que les imaginaires caribéens et (latino) américains entretiennent avec ce que l’auteur désigne comme la "présence-histoire" des Noir-e-s.  Outsidering... constitue cependant une incontestable avancée théorique et analytique dans les travaux de recherche de son auteur qui, cette fois ci, invite instamment à (re)penser sans complaisance aucune cette "liminalité" qu’il interroge comme productive et institutrice de Noir-e en Caraïbes/Amériques. De ce point de vue, le dialogue critique qu’il a établi avec certains penseurs de la "tradition universitaire anglo-saxonne" n’en devient que plus fécond.  Résolument ancré dans l’Afro-Amérique, en tant que champ de production critique et intellectuelle, cet ouvrage transcrit aussi le parcours humain, universitaire et pédagogique de son auteur, notamment à travers le Groupe de Recherche et d’Études sur les Noir-



e-s d’Amérique Latine (GRENAL) qu’il dirige et anime depuis une décennie au sein du Centre de Recherches Ibériques et Latino-Américaines de l’Université de Perpignan (CRILAUP).

Sommario/riassunto

This is the first book that explicitly focuses on the relationships between various types of friendship experiences and happiness. It addresses historical, theoretical, and measurement issues in the study of friendship and happiness (e.g., why friends are important for happiness). In order to achieve a balanced evaluation of this area as a whole, many chapters in the book conclude with a critical appraisal of what is known about the role of friendship in happiness, and provide important directions for future research. Experts from different parts of the world provide in-depth, authoritative reviews on the association between different types of friendship experiences (e.g., friendship quantity, quality) and happiness in different age groups and cultures. An ideal resource for researchers and students of positive psychology, this rich, clear, and up-to-date book serves as an important reference for academicians in related fields of psychology such as cross-cultural, developmental and social.
