Sommario/riassunto

Cet ouvrage est le fruit de recherches multidisciplinaires menées dans le cadre du programme ANR IMASUD. Il questionne la Méditerranée



dans sa dimension euro-arabe ou euro-musulmane – comme un espace d’affrontements des mémoires et des imaginaires mais également comme un espace d’expériences de la pluralité pacifiée. Les questions mémorielles et les récits historiques qui constituent le cœur du débat dans les sociétés méditerranéennes sont abordés dans ce livre à de multiples échelles territoriales et à la lumière des enjeux de pouvoir. Par leur multiplicité (justices transitionnelles, sanctuaires religieux, figures de sainteté, villes historiques, réfugiés palestiniens, culture audiovisuelle, dialogues interreligieux…), les études présentées ici contribuent à une plus grande compréhension des mémoires antagonistes en action. Elles permettent de mieux saisir les situations complexes, sources de conflits identitaires et territoriaux, mais également occasions de partage et de rapprochement. C’est ainsi que le travail de mémoire entrepris ici ou là peut contribuer à faire évoluer le sens que chaque communauté, nationale ou autre, donne à son passé, de façon à rendre son présent plus compatible avec celui du voisin.

Sommario/riassunto

When NATO took charge of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) for Afghanistan in 2003, ISAF conceptualized its mission largely as a stabilization and reconstruction deployment. However, as the campaign has evolved and the insurgency has proved to more resistant and capable, key operational imperatives have emerged, including military support to the civilian development effort, closer partnering with Afghan security forces, and greater military restraint. All participating militaries have adapted, to varying extents, to these campaign imperatives and pressures. This book analyzes these initiatives and their outcomes by focusing on the experiences of three groups of militaries: those of Britain, Canada, Denmark, the Netherlands, and the US, which have faced the most intense operational and strategic pressures; Germany, who's troops have faced the greatest political and cultural constraints; and the Afghan National Army (ANA) and the Taliban, who have been forced to adapt to a very different sets of circumstances.
