A History of Domestic Threats in Modern Societies (XVIIIth-XXIth)
Patrick Farges et Alexandre Rios-Bordes
This seminar offers to explore the comparative and transnational history of domestic threats in modern societies. At the crossroads of political, social, and cultural history, we wish to distance ourselves from the dominant ‘pathological’ understanding and take these anxieties seriously in a sociological perspective. We will wonder how the successive figures of internal enemies took roots, socially and politically; and what kind of transformations they engendered in terms of institutions, laws, practices, and conducts. What is a domestic enemy? In what contexts and through what processes did they emerge? What type of discourses framed the threats ? Drawing from what kind of cultural references, repertoires, and experiences? How did these representations travel ? What kind of political and social reconfiguration did they produce? These are a few of the questions we will address and discuss through a series of historical and contemporary cases.
