Sommario/riassunto

Hindouisme, soufisme, islam, cultes aux esprits. Du Pakistan à l'île Maurice en passant par le Népal et l’Inde, les mondes indiens sont souvent associés à des terres de religiosité et de spiritualité définies par leur soi-disant nature religieuse. À rebours de pareille essentialisation, ce volume explore la diver­sité des territoires du religieux en interrogeant leur articulation avec les lieux saints.  Les contributions ici réunies (anthropologiques, géographiques mais aussi historiques et architecturales), combinent les échelles spatiales, du local au transnational, et diverses temporalités pour décrire l’ancrage territo­rial du religieux et mesurer l’importance de la mémoire collective dans la co-fondation de lieux saints.  Parcourir, Mettre en scène, Franchir, résument les axes de réflexion dont le mouvement est l’un des fondements. Le voyage rituel et la migration, l’itinérance ascétique, les pèlerinages et les processions impliquent le fran­chissement de seuils et de limites. L’exploration de ce type d’interfaces constitue alors l’un des principaux enjeux de l’analyse territoriale des faits religieux. Mais ces interfaces ne sont-elles pas aussi le lieu d’une émergence de formes hybrides de religiosité, voire de réactualisation et de réinvention des rapports des sociétés aux territoires ?

Sommario/riassunto

This volume of essays draws together research on different types of collective actions: group actions, representative actions, test case procedures, derivative actions and class actions. The main focus is on how these actions can enhance access to justice and on how to balance the interests of private actors in protecting their rights with the interests of society as a whole. Rather than focusing on collective actions only as a procedural device per se, the contributors to this book also examine how these mechanisms relate to their broader social context. Bringing together a broad range of scholarship from the areas of competition, consumer, environmental, company and securities law, the book includes contributions from Asian, European and North American scholars and therefore expands the scope of the traditional European and/or American debate.
