Sommario/riassunto |

À travers une histoire sociale de l’Association des oulémas musulmans algériens (AOMA), de sa fondation en 1931 à sa réactivation dans les années 1990, ce livre retrace des débats toujours actuels dans l’Algérie contemporaine : la construction de l’État, la définition de l’islam et la place de la langue arabe. Fondé sur des sources en langues arabe et française, et sur un travail de terrain, L'Algérie des oulémas questionne les clichés liés à l’héritage de l’AOMA. Les activités éducatives et religieuses de l’association à la période coloniale, puis son positionnement dans la guerre d’indépendance ont conditionné l’insertion de ses membres dans l’Algérie postcoloniale. Les parcours de ses dirigeants donnent à voir les stratégies mises en œuvre après la disparition formelle de l’association à l’indépendance. Si certains des cadres de l’AOMA participent au gouvernement du parti unique FLN, travaillent au sein de l’Éducation na tionale ou œuvrent à construire les bases de l’islam d’État, d’autres contestent publiquement le pouvoir socialiste au nom même de l’islam, suivis par les mouvements islamistes naissants des années 1980. Les enjeux culturels, politiques, sociaux et économiques de l’étude de l’AOMA et de son héritage sont |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Fifth-century Athens is praised as the cradle of democracy and sometimes treated as a potential model for modern political theory or practice. In this daring reassessment of classical Athenian democracy and its significance for the United States today, Loren J. Samons provides ample justification for our founding fathers' distrust of |

democracy, a form of government they scorned precisely because of their familiarity with classical Athens. How Americans have come to embrace "democracy" in its modern form-and what the positive and negative effects have been-is an important story for all contemporary citizens. Confronting head-on many of the beliefs we hold dear but seldom question, Samons examines Athens's history in the fifth and fourth centuries B.C. in order to test the popular idea that majority rule leads to good government. Challenging many basic assumptions about the character and success of Athenian democracy, What's Wrong with Democracy? offers fascinating and accessible discussions of topics including the dangers of the popular vote, Athens's acquisitive foreign policy, the tendency of the state to overspend, the place of religion in Athenian society, and more. Sure to generate controversy, Samons's bold and iconoclastic book finds that democracy has begun to function like an unacknowledged religion in our culture, immune from criticism and dissent, and he asks that we remember the Athenian example and begin to question our uncritical worship of democratic values such as freedom, choice, and diversity. |
