Quels sont les échos de l'Empire dans nos sociétés contemporaines ? Comment le raconter, comment les descendants des colonisés vivent-ils cette histoire ? Comment décoloniser l'histoire, et que faire des statues ? Etienne Duval sʹentretient avec Meera Sabaratnam, maître de conférences en relations internationales à l'Université SOAS de Londres, spécialiste des aspects coloniaux et post-coloniaux de la politique internationale et membre du groupe de travail "Décoloniser l'Université".

Qu'ils aient opté pour les réformes, comme les Français en Algérie, ou pour une décolonisation rapide, comme les Britanniques en Inde, le retrait de ces deux puissances coloniales s'est fait dans la violence. Il s'est soldé par ces centaines de milliers de morts. Troisième épisode de cette série avec Jacques Frémeaux, professeur honoraire (Paris-IV Sorbonne) en histoire contemporaine, spécialiste de l'histoire coloniale. Il est notamment l'auteur de "La France et l'Algérie en guerre" (Economica, 2002), et de "De quoi fut fait l'Empire - Les guerres coloniales au XIXe siècle" (CNRS Editions, 2010).

En France, l'ordonnance de 1315 de Louis X le Hutin promulgue le "Privilège de la terre de France", faisant de tout esclave posant le pied sur le sol français un homme libre. Cependant, l'esclavage se développera dans les colonies françaises au XVIIe siècle. Il faudra attendre le 27 avril 1848 pour que soit adopté le Décret d'abolition de l'esclavage.

In this week's episode: can the new Aukus alliance contain China? In his cover piece this week, James Forsyth writes that the new Aukus pact has fixed the contours of the next 30 years of British foreign policy. Britain, he says, is no longer trying to stay neutral in the competition between America and China. On the podcast James is joined by Francis Pike, author of Empires at War: A Short History of Modern Asia Since World War II, who also wrote for the magazine this week, giving the case against Aukus. (00:45) Also this week: what can be done to save the Church of England's parishes? Back in February, Emma Thompson, a rural parish volunteer, and the Reverend Marcus Walker, Rector of St Bartholomew the Great, London, wrote pieces for the Spectator expressing their concern for the future of the Church of England's parish system. The Archbishops of Canterbury and York dismissed these concerns as scaremongering from ‘rascally voices'. Seven months on there is a new threat to the parish, which Emma writes about in this week's magazine. She is joined by Marcus on the podcast to explain what you can do to save your local church.  . (16:35) And finally: in a time when travel has never been faster, why has so little been done to reform queues? This is the question Harry Mount asks in the magazine this week. He sits down with me now, with the Spectator's Wiki Man columnist, Rory Sutherland to pitch some transformative ideas on how to update this very British pastime.  (29:10) Hosted by William Moore Produced by Sam Holmes

On this edition of Parallax Views, it's become a truism that Afghanistan is the "Graveyard of Empire" over the past few decades. It's an idea that's entered the common parlance and the foreign policy lexicon. Even President Joe Biden has mentioned the "Graveyard of Empires" tropes in light of the U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan this year. The British Empire and the Soviet Unions failed interventions in Afghanistan are used as examples to support the trope and now the U.S.'s 20 year war ending in withdrawal is being used to further the "Graveyard of Empires" narrative. However, Alexander Hainy-Khaleeli of the Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies at University of Exeter recently pushed back on this trope in his Ajam Media Collective article "Why we need to stop calling Afghanistan 'The Graveyard of Empires'". This was recorded 9/2/21. There are some audio drop-outs but they do not disrupt the ability to understand the conversation. We also discuss the leadership of the Taliban vs. its rank and file, the Calpihate vs. the Emirate, the potential theological differences between Islamic State and the Taliban, Deobandi Islam vs. Salafi Islam, Biden's comments about the Taliban facing an "existential crisis", Afghanistan's history before the 20th century and its importance to Empires, racism and the "Graveyard of Empires" narrative, does the "Graveyard of Empires" narrative allow for foreign policy interventionists and the U.S. a get out of jail free card for the occupation of Afghanistan?, oversimplifications of history like "ancient hatred" keeping us from asking real questions about sectarian conflicts and geopolitical issues, the Western bubble, Thomas Friedman's "The Lexus and the Oliver Tree" and the Golden Arches Theory of Conflict/War, bad Middle East takes, the Soviet Union in Afghanistan and the role of Cold War machinations by the West in that history, the way the Afghanistan war has been explained and interpreted in the West, the deaths of Afghan civilians and the bombing of Afghanistan, why the Taliban has gained some popular support, the Pashtuns, globalization, the homogenization of Central Asia in the Western mind, the "good guys" vs. "bad guys" narrative of geopolitics, has Afghanistan never been conquered in history?, is Afghanistan ungovernable?, the history of the "Graveyard of Empires" trope, the significance of the year 2010 in the mainstreaming of the "Graveyard of Empires" trope, cartoons referencing the "Graveyard of Empires" trope, Alexander the Great and Afghanistan, the Empire of the Mongols, Greeks, and the Arabs and Afghanistan, the rich culture of Afghanistan in ancient times vs. the image of Afghanistan as backwards throughout history, the strategic importance of Afghanistan historically, Afghanistan as the "cradle of empire" in ancient times, the province of Balkh, Rambo III and Afghanistan, the "stinger effect" in the Afghan/Soviet conflict,

Acquania Escarne's passion for personal finance and investing began at a young age when she opened a Roth IRA at 16 years old, and she has been seeking financial independence (FI) ever since!

On this episode of the Bear Grease Podcast, we're going to the very footing of natural systems and human existence. Empires have risen and fallen because of soil health and the equalizing grasp of the topic at hand is inescapable from both the wealthy and impoverished people. We'll be discussing the bewildering complexity of the soil and our connection to it. We'll nerd out with Clay Newcomb's old soil science professor, Dr. David Miller exploring soil uniqueness. We'll also talk with Dr. Grant Woods and learn how he transformed a degraded Ozark cattle farm into a whitetail paradise through building soils. And we'll talk with an Arkansas farmer, Terrell Spencer of Across The Creek Farm who was inspired to live close the land because of what he saw in the Middle East. Understanding soils will upgrade as woodsmen as we'll understand more about the heartbeat of wild places.  Connect with Clay and MeatEater Clay on Instagram MeatEater on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube Shop Bear Grease Merch Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

Afghanistan has, for centuries, been at the center of the world. Long before the U.S. invasion - before the U.S. was even a nation - countless civilizations intersected there, weaving together a colorful tapestry of foods, languages, ethnicities and visions of what Afghanistan was and could be. The story of Afghanistan is too often told from the perspective of outsiders who tried to invade it (and always failed) earning it the nickname "Graveyard of Empires." In this episode, we're shifting the perspective. We'll journey through the centuries alongside Afghan mystical poets. We'll turn the radio dial to hear Afghanistan's Elvis. We'll meet the queen who built the first primary school for girls in the country. And we'll take a closer look at Afghanistan's centuries-long experiment to create a unified nation.

As the 20-year war in Afghanistan comes to a disastrous conclusion, even more questions have emerged as to why America was there in the first place. And why they didn't leave sooner. Scott Horton is the author of several books on the Afghan war and runs the wildly popular website Antiwar.com. He breaks down the mistakes that were made, not just with the botched exit, but from the initial invasion just weeks after 9/11. The repercussions of the longest war in American history will be felt for decades to come both inside and outside of the United States, but the loss of goodwill and respect from other nations is something impossible to quantify. America lost more than just the war, it lost what little moral superiority it claimed to have.
