Ceci est une lecture améliorée de ma newsletter : Il y a quelques semaines, je me suis surpris à rêver d'acheter un tapis de marche. Assis devant mon écran, je comparais les modèles, je regardais les différentes options (pliables ou pas), comparais les prix. Mais si je suis vraiment sincère avec moi-même, j'ai vu ce tapis de marche chez une amie, je parle beaucoup de mouvement avec mon ami Alex...Si je vous demande ce que vous désirez, vous allez répondre une chose ou une autre.Mais que désirez-vous vraiment ?Combien de fois avez-vous désiré quelque chose parce que votre collègue, votre beau-frère ou cette personne sur Instagram le possédait ? Il peut basiquement s'agir d'un objet mais cela peut aussi être une envie de couple, de vacances, d'enfants ou simplement d'un chien...Trop souvent on désire des « choses » pour combler un vide qui n'avait rien à voir avec l'objet de la convoitise. Combien de fois avez-vous cru vouloir quelque chose alors qu'en réalité, vous ne faisiez que singer les désirs des autres ? Mais surtout combien de fois avez-vous ressenti le vide après avoir acquis l'objet en question.Si ces questions vous dérangent, c'est normal. Elles remettent en cause l'une des illusions les plus tenace de notre époque individualiste : celle que nos désirs nous appartiennent.Qu'ils jaillissent spontanément de notre être le plus authentique. Qu'ils sont le reflet de notre personnalité unique et singulière. Mensonge.Dans cet épisode solo j'explore sans fard ce qui motive nos choix. À travers l'exemple anodin d'un tapis de marche ou d'une montre connectée, je remonte le fil de mes envies. Pourquoi désirons-nous ? D'où viennent ces pulsions ? Et surtout : à qui appartiennent-elles vraiment ?J'ai convoqué René Girard, Bourdieu, Spinoza ou encore Clouscard, mais aussi mes propres expériences – de mes années d'ascension sociale à mes doutes de quadragénaire sur Instagram. J'y parle de capitalisme, de développement personnel, d'authenticité performative, mais aussi de spiritualité.J'ai voulu écrire cette épisode comme une boussole pour moi-même – et peut-être pour vous – dans un monde qui ne cesse de nous souffler quoi vouloir.5 citations marquantes« Nos désirs ont appris à mentir mieux que nous. »« Le désir est l'essence de l'homme, mais il peut aussi être sa prison. »« L'authenticité est devenue un produit de consommation comme un autre. »« Nous courons après des désirs qui ne sont pas les nôtres. »« Désirer ce que l'on a déjà, c'est peut-être ça la vraie liberté. »10 questions structurées posées (ou implicites)Qu'est-ce que je désire vraiment ?Pourquoi ai-je envie de tel objet ou telle expérience ?Mes désirs sont-ils vraiment les miens ou ceux des autres ?Pourquoi continue-t-on de courir après des choses qui nous laissent vides ?Quelle est la différence entre plaisir immédiat et joie profonde ?Pourquoi les désirs des adultes sont-ils parfois plus pernicieux que ceux des jeunes ?Quel rôle joue notre classe sociale dans la fabrication de nos désirs ?Comment savoir si un désir est authentique ?Pourquoi l'industrie du développement personnel ne nous aide-t-elle pas à mieux nous connaître ?Comment orienter nos désirs plutôt que les subir ?Timestamps clés pour YouTube00:00 – Introduction : le tapis de marche et l'origine du désir04:30 – Le grand mensonge du désir autonome10:00 – L'âge adulte et ses désirs déguisés15:40 – L'illusion de la réussite et de l'accumulation20:10 – Le piège du mimétisme selon René Girard25:00 – Clouscard, Bourdieu et la fabrique sociale des envies30:00 – Désir, insatiabilité et dopamine35:20 – L'obsession moderne de l'authenticité40:45 – Mes 5 critères pour reconnaître un vrai désir48:00 – Vers un art du désir conscient et libérateur Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : [SOLO] Atrophie sociale : anatomie d'une manipulation de masse (https://audmns.com/UouEwvn) Vlan #51 (VF) Hacker votre cerveau pour être heureux avec Mo Gawdat (https://audmns.com/vPjaTsU) [SOLO] Gâcher du temps est un acte de résistance (https://audmns.com/YGGCTKa)Distribué par Audiomeans.

Mystic SyndicateThis is the final two-hander episode featuring the brilliant and sorely missed Terry Robinson, recorded with Pooka before Terry's passing. In this deeply personal and intellectually rich conversation, Terry and Pooka dive headfirst into the mystic heart of the Syndicate , exploring its layered portrayal across Mage: The Ascension editions—from Mafia caricature to modern myth-makers of the market. Revised & M20 era implications:Syndicate in charge—but how and when did that happen? Bourdieu's Capital Theory: Economic, social, cultural, and linguistic capital in Mage terms Roland Barthes & Jean Baudrillard: Semiotics, simulation, and consumer ritual as hyper-sigil work Pierre Lévy's Anthropological Spaces: Syndicate mages as avatars of the Commodity Space Control, Blindsight & Data Visualization: Facial recognition as magical parsing; the uncanny art of market faces Tate Modern installation: A stock ticker + Greek lament = sublime Syndicate paradox realm? The Syndicate as potential chaos magicians of the Technocracy

Militer sans se perdre. Bourdieu, Lénine, Malcolm X et les autres : les luttes vues d'en haut.

Feine Unterschiede, große Wirkung – Distinktionsmerkmale in Beratung & AlltagIn dieser Episode widmen wir uns einem Thema, das oft zwischen den Zeilen wirkt – und dennoch maßgeblich beeinflusst, wie Menschen sich selbst erleben und miteinander in Beziehung treten: Distinktionsmerkmale.Claus Triebiger und Kevin Baron sprechen darüber, wie Menschen durch Kleidung, Sprache, Auftreten oder kulturelle Referenzen ein bestimmtes Bild von sich erzeugen – bewusst oder unbewusst. Und wir fragen, was diese Merkmale über Zugehörigkeit, Ausgrenzung und Identität verraten – besonders dann, wenn sie in Beratungsprozesse hineinwirken.Was bedeutet es, wenn jemand bestimmte Symbole nutzt, die nicht „seine eigenen“ sind?Was passiert, wenn Sprache oder Stil zum Hindernis werden – oder zur Brücke?Neben Konzepten wie kulturellem Kapital (nach Bourdieu), sozialer Prägung von Geschmack und dem Einfluss von Milieus auf Wahrnehmung, Haltung und Verhalten reflektieren wir auch die Rolle von Symbolik, Kunst und sozialen Medien in der heutigen Beratungspraxis.Und zum Schluss:Ein kleiner Schlenker zum Wein – denn auch hier zeigt sich Distinktion auf sinnlich erfahrbare Weise.

Sociologists have had surprisingly little to say about poetry as a topic while sometimes also making grandiose claims that sociology is/should be like poetry. These are the prompts which begin Andrew Smith's Class and the Uses of Poetry: Symbolic Enclosures (2024, Palgrave Macmillan). Drawing upon discussions with working class readers of poetry, and interviews with unpublished poets, Smith draws our attention to the ways in which poetry has been enclosed, or fenced off, from working class readers. Influenced by, though offering some criticisms, of, Bourdieu's approach to the sociology of culture, he shows us how readers become aware of this enclosure but nevertheless engage in collective understanding of the poems they are presented with. In doing do, Smith reminds us of the need to emphasise the aesthetic elements of poetry, and culture more generally, including its creative and expressive affordances. A reader of his book realises that a critical sociology of poetry needs to attest not just to the symbolic capital in who is seen as ‘legitimate' readers and producers of poetry but also how those shut off from it lose out on the uses of poetry. Our discussion covers what led Smith to pursue this work, how sociology has, and might in future confront poetry, his experiences of running these reading groups and suggests why, perhaps, we should also perhaps reject the ‘society of the segue way' and savour some of the finitude which poetry might offer.

How do Black women experience education in Britain? Within British educational research about Black students, gender distinctions have been largely absent, male-dominated or American-centric. Due to the lack of attention paid to Black female students, relatively little is known about how they understand and engage with the education system, or the influences which shape their long-term strategies and decision-making in order to gain educational 'success'. Babygirl, You've Got This! Experiences of Black Girls and Women in the English Education System (Bloomsbury, 2024) by Dr. April-Louise Pennant will illustrate the educational experiences and journeys of Black British women graduates and considers the influence of the intersections of race, gender, ethnicity, culture and social class on their educational journeys. Dr. Pennant uniquely documents the entire educational journey - from primary school to university - within both predominantly white (PW) and predominantly global majority (PGM) educational institutions in order to examine the various accessibility, financial and academic hurdles which face Black girls and women. The book combines theoretical frameworks such as Critical Race Theory, Bourdieu's Theory of Practice and Black Feminist epistemology, alongside the personal accounts of the author and a range of Black British women graduates. Through analysis of the strategies, choices and decisions made by Black British women in their educational journeys, the book ultimately provides insights into how to navigate the education system effectively, and provides alternatives to normalised understandings of educational 'success'. Find out more about Dr. April-Louise Pennant on her website! This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Rural speech is often denigrated, but how might it also be valuable? How might rural economies benefit from their linguistic diversity through tourism? In this third and final installment of our “Is Talk Cheap?” series on language and value, Kate and Ariana interview Dr. Thea Strand about a highly valorized dialect of rural Norway that won a national popularity contest and is increasingly being used commercially. Dr. Strand gives us some background on how the political and cultural history of Norway has produced a deep appreciation of dialect diversity and an ethos against language standardization. We talk about how the Valdres dialect is now used commercially for tourists in diverse places, from wayfinding signs on ski trails to advertising car washes at gas stations. Learn the significance of a single vowel in advertising a festival for fermented fish! We discuss hyperlocal language use, language change over time, and why some kinds of linguistic difference are available to use in marketing when others are not. In the last part of the episode, Thea tells us about her new research with Michael Wroblewski on another aspect of this rural economy: the decline of transhumance (the seasonal movement of grazing livestock) among local family farmers. Residents lament the resulting reforestation and their changing landscape alongside their changing dialect, underscoring how people experience economic transformations through landscape and language. Thea Strand is a Senior Lecturer in Anthropology at Loyola University Chicago. Her primary research is sited in rural Valdres, Norway, examining language and political economy, broadly construed. She has studied changes in linguistic structure, value, and ideologies surrounding the distinctive Valdres dialect since the late 2000s. Her current project focuses on the deeply intertwined environmental, cultural, and linguistic effects of tourism development and declining transhumant farming in Valdres' mountain areas.   Co-hosted by Dr. Kathryn Graber [Link] and Ariana Gunderson [Link].

It is only in recent years that sociologists and historians of the social sciences have given empire the attention it deserves in histories of the discipline. In this context, George Steinmetz's The Colonial Origins of Modern Social Thought: French Sociology and the Overseas Empire (Princeton University Press) is likely to be a touchstone text in these debates. Providing a new history of the French national discipline inspired by a ‘Neo-Bourdieusian Historical Sociology of Science', Steinmetz highlights the centrality of ‘colonial sociology', work centered on and/or created in the French overseas colonies and protectorates to the discipline's development.  The French state, eager to consolidate its empire after World War II, were eager to draw on the expertise of sociologists in pursuing this goal; as Steinmetz shows therefore, during this period, a focus on ‘the colonial' became central to French sociology to the extent that roughly half the French sociological field could be considered ‘colonial sociologists'. Despite this entanglement with the French state these colonial sociologists became strong critics of imperialism. Alongside the many stories he uncovers Steinmetz explores in depth the case of four such colonial sociologists: Raymond Aron, Jacque Berque, Georges Balandier and Pierre Bourdieu, seeking to show not just the centrality of colonialism to each writer but how their experiences of empire formed their basis for their future work; for example, how Bourdieu's concepts of habitus, capital and field can be traced to his experiences in colonial Algeria. In our discussion, which also marks the imminent release of the text in paperback, George takes us through this hugely enlightening text, including reflections on why there may have been some ‘disciplinary amnesia' in sociology's unwillingness to confront empire, the relations between sociology and other imperial disciplines, how sociologists from the colonies developed their own work, the lessons from his text about how we should confront colonial sociologists and whether Durkheim had an ‘imperial gaze'.

In this episode, Dr. Kathryn (Kate) Graber and doctoral student Ariana Gunderson interview linguistic anthropologist Jillian Cavanaugh about all things language and value. Much of Dr. Cavanaugh's research in Bergamo, Italy, summarized here, has been on the political economy of code choice–that is, why people choose the ways of speaking they do, whether to access economic opportunities or to have a language of regional belonging, intimacy, and home. Turning to questions of authenticity and materiality, Dr. Cavanaugh discusses how to approach language not only as an expressive system but also as an embodied, material practice. We talk about how food gains value through the different kinds of linguistic labor that are undertaken in its production and ask whether language and food are analogous semiotic systems (spoiler alert: not quite). Thinking about her current work with small-scale, hyper-local sausage producers, Jillian discusses the roles of individual choice and consumption, and/versus the role of production in the construction of value. At the end, we talk about intersections between linguistic and economic anthropology in Jillian's role as President-Elect of the Society for Linguistic Anthropology (SLA). Jillian R. Cavanaugh is a linguistic anthropologist whose research, centered in northern Italy, has considered language shift and social transformation, value, language ideologies, materiality, gender, and heritage food. Her current research focuses on heritage food producers and the labor they undertake to make good, safe, and valuable food. She is interested in how people use the semiotic and material resources available to them to make sense of their pasts in order to live in the present and envision their futures. Her publications include Living Memory: The Social Aesthetics of Language in a Northern Italian Town (Wiley-Blackwell 2009) and Language and Materiality: Ethnographic and Theoretical Explorations (Cambridge University Press 2017, co-edited with Shalini Shankar). Her work has been published in American Anthropologist, the Journal of Linguistic Anthropology, and Ethnos, among other venues. She received her PhD in anthropology at New York University and is Professor of Anthropology at Brooklyn College and the Graduate Center CUNY. Co-hosted by Dr. Kathryn Graber [Link] and Ariana Gunderson [Link].

From the protests in Brazil initially focused on bus fares to the protests in Hong Kong seeking to stop an extradition bill to the protests across the Middle East now collectively referred to as the "Arab Spring," the political and economic mass demonstrations from 2010 to 2020 made it a decade of public protest like no other. Yet the vast majority of these efforts failed to bring about their desired changes--and many of them actually led to the opposite of what they wanted. Vincent Bevins, author of the new book If We Burn: The Mass Protest Decade and the Missing Revolution, has chronicled this decade with stories from his on-the-ground reporting and extensive interviews with activists in ten countries around the globe.David Priess spoke with Vincent about why mass protests during this decade so often fell short of their objectives, the principle of horizontalism, the role of social media in mobilization and action, and other themes as they relate to the mass protests in Brazil, Turkey, Hong Kong, Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Syria, South Korea, and other countries.Among the works mentioned in this episode:The book If We Burn: The Mass Protest Decade and the Missing Revolution by Vincent BevinsThe movie The CandidateThe book From Mobilization to Revolution by Charles TillyThe book Minor Detail by Adania ShibliThe book Bourdieu's Secret Admirer in the Caucasus by Georgi DerluguianChatter is a production of Lawfare and Goat Rodeo.
