The tension between the Saxons and Normans are at an all-time high. While King Richard the Lion Heart is away, his brother Prince John sits on the throne, allowing the Norman nobles to ravage the Saxon countryside further. There is no one to protect them. Their land is repossessed. They are made to flee into the forests as outlaws, leaving behind the stand-in king who has forsaken them.

Comment fonctionne précisément ce système politique, et quelles en sont les justifications aux yeux des intéressés ? Dans un premier temps, Jean-Claude Muller présente l'organisation sociopolitique et les divers lignages nécessaires à la bonne marche d'une chefferie (lignage du chef, du circonciseur, du « maître du territoire », du forgeron) et leur intégration dans un ensemble social et rituel. Puis il analyse des mythes de fondation qui se réfèrent au schème du don et contre-don de Marcel Mauss, la chefferie étant créée pour récompenser un chasseur étranger ayant offert son gibier aux autochtones. Ceux-ci lui donnent la chefferie pour qu'il continue à faire bénéficier la communauté de ses bienfaits. Des rites sont alors chargés de faire du chef une sorte de surhomme, doté d'un double féminin, un masque qu'il est seul à porter et qui fait écho aux autres conceptions de la personne physique du chef de quelques populations voisines. Par la suite, l'auteur examine les répercussions des trois colonialismes qui ont affecté les DÌÌ, celui des Peuls au xixe siècle et ceux des Allemands et des Français au xxe siècle. Aujourd'hui, après l'arrivée de l'islam et du christianisme, les Dìì se disent tous soit chrétiens soit musulmans. Leur dilemme consiste à décider ce qu'ils peuvent garder de leurs rites traditionnels, afin de ne plus passer pour des païens. Cet ouvrage d'anthropologie politique, destiné à ceux qui s'intéressent aux idéologies politiques des chefferies et des royaumes (royauté sacrée ou « divine »), montre aussi les mécanismes qui empêchent le pouvoir cheffal de se muer en despotisme. Il fait voir également comment un peuple africain contemporain maintient ses traditions tout en les adaptant au cadre étatique actuel, en proposant de nouvelles solutions…chefferies dìì de l'AdamaouaDii (African people)Social life and customsChiefdomsCameroonAdamaouaTribesCameroonAdamaouaSocial life and customsTribal governmentCameroonAdamaouaRites and ceremoniesCameroonAdamaouarites et cérémoniesgouvernementDourou (peuple)Camerounanthropologie politiqueDii (African people)Social life and customs.ChiefdomsTribesSocial life and customs.Tribal governmentRites and ceremoniesMuller Jean-Claude570327Heusch Luc De290642FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910275051603321Les chefferies dìì de l'Adamaoua (Nord-Cameroun)3021169UNINA04354nam 2200613 450 991079562230332120240112051723.01-5036-3372-110.1515/9781503633728(CKB)5580000000360932(MiAaPQ)EBC29973005(Au-PeEL)EBL29973005(DE-B1597)641544(DE-B1597)9781503633728(OCoLC)1344539048(EXLCZ)99558000000036093220240112d2023 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierData Cartels The Companies That Control and Monopolize Our Information /Sarah LamdanFirst edition.Stanford, California :Stanford University Press,[2023]©20231 online resource (227 pages)Includes index.1-5036-1507-3 Includes bibliographical references (pages 145-195) and index.Introduction : the data cartels : an overview -- Data brokering -- Academic research -- Legal information -- Financial information -- News -- Conclusion : envisioning public information as a public good."In our digital world, data is power, and information hoarders reign supreme. The practices of these digital pillagers are analogous to those of cartels--they use intimidation, aggression, and force to maintain control and power. Sarah Lamdan brings us into the unregulated underworld of the "data cartels," demonstrating how the entities mining, hoarding, commodifying, and selling our data and informational resources perpetuate social inequalities and threaten the democratic sharing of knowledge. The companies at the center of this book are not household names like Google. They fly under the radar and self-identify as "data analytics" or "business solutions" operations. These companies supply the digital lifeblood that flow through the circulatory system of the internet. With their control over data, they can prevent the free flow of information to places where it is needed, and simultaneously distribute private information to predatory entities. Just a few companies dominate most of our critical informational resources, from scientific research and financial data to the law. They are also data brokers, selling our personal data to law enforcement and other government agencies that determine whether we should be eligible for social services, and they sell "risk" products that insurance companies, employers, landlords, and healthcare systems use to make decisions. Alarmingly, everything they're doing is perfectly legal. Ranging from small information firms to billion-dollar data giants like Thomson Reuters and RELX Group, these companies masterfully exploit outdated information and privacy laws, curating online information in a way that amplifies digital racism and targets marginalized communities. In this book, Lamdan contends that privatization and tech exceptionalism have prevented us from creating effective legal regulation. Lack of legal intervention has allowed oversized information oligopolies to coalesce. In addition to specific legal and market-based solutions, Lamdan calls for treating information like a public good and creating digital infrastructure that supports our democratic ideals"--Provided by publisher.Antitrust lawUnited StatesCartelsUnited StatesData protectionLaw and legislationUnited StatesFreedom of informationUnited StatesInformation services industryLaw and legislationUnited StatesInformation services industrySocial aspectsUnited StatesAntitrust lawCartelsData protectionLaw and legislationFreedom of informationInformation services industryLaw and legislationInformation services industrySocial aspects343.730999AK 54325DE-14/sredrvkLamdan Sarah1535664MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910795622303321Data Cartels3783999UNINA
