Murambi, Le Livre Des Ossements De Boubacar Boris Diop : Une Fictionnalisation De L’horreur
Authors: ANGUI Aimé
Published: June 2024

Le devoir de mémoire a toujours été inscrit dans le projet et le canevas rationnels de Boubacar Boris Diop. La traçabilité est perceptible depuis les Tambours de la mémoire (Paris, L’Harmattan, 1990). En effet, les souffrances, les meurtrissures, l’horreur et les génocides que connaissent les peuples, surtout africains, sont devenus des sujets cruciaux pour l’auteur dans ses projets littéraires. La peur ou l’obsession de l’oubli, selon lui, doivent conduire tout bon écrivain ou "faiseur de conscience" à immortaliser "ces monstruosités", à les partager avec l’humanité, de sorte à créer dans toutes les consciences des traces indélébiles. Pour lui, il faut mettre fin aux abominations et aux comportements kafkaïens ou absurdes de l’homme. De Les Tambours de la mémoire à Murambi, le livre des ossements (Stock, 1997 ; NEI, 2000), l’écriture de l’horreur se fait jour dans toutes ses aspérités et sa rugosité. Elle s’emmitoufle dans un "véridisme" et un réalisme propre à la fiction pour glaner des évènements propres à l’Histoire qui se veut un message inquisiteur et accusateur. Ce qui confère à Boubacar Boris Diop un cachet d’auteur qui est le critique et l’analyste de la contemporanéité. Cela dit, quel message véhicule l’auteur ? Comment l’horreur, expression de la barbarie et de l’inhumanité, est-elle fictionnalisée ? Quels sont les indices textuels qui démontrent que son texte romanesque côtoie la réalité de façon asymptotique ?
Construction de la figure maternelle et destin Exceptionnel du héros dans les traditions Orales ouest-africaines
Authors: SAKHO Cheick
Published: June 2024

Plus encore que le père, la mère occupe, dans les sociétés africaines traditionnelles, une place importante dans la vie de son enfant. Cette conception bien ancrée dans l’imaginaire des sociétés africaines est fortement représentée dans les traditions orales. Son rôle est si important dans la vie de son fils que celui-ci ne peut, généralement, se passer d’elle avant sa maturité. En effet, contrairement au père qui sort très tôt du récit, la mère, elle, accompagne le héros une bonne partie de sa vie. La figure maternelle est, à cet effet, omniprésente dans les récits qui célèbrent un personnage historique d’exception. Très souvent, c’est elle qui accompagne le héros durant les périodes de l’enfance et de la formation et ne s’efface que quand celui-ci est en mesure de prendre en main son destin. C’est toute menace est écartée qu’elle disparait à son tour pour éviter de devenir un obstacle, représenter un fardeau (à cause de la vieillesse, pour Sogolon, par exemple) pouvant entraver le héros dans la marche vers son destin.
Du boundjou au dictateur nègre : la figure du Barbare dans batouala de rené maran et rue des Pas-perdus de lyonel trouillot
Authors:   Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar, Sénégal
Published: June 2024

Une interrogation minutieuse du paysage littéraire africain et caribéen des périodes coloniale et postcoloniale permet de découvrir des modèles littéraires résolument orientés vers une violence esthétique ou une esthétique de la violence qui, tantôt dévoile ou dissimule un désir d’émancipation artistique achevé, ou tantôt se rebiffe et se libère orgueilleusement du canon esthétique traditionnel. Dans les deux cas, le point de rencontre ou le lieu d’ancrage des tendances littéraires de ces deux périodes, dont le second succède immédiatement au premier, demeure le topos de la barbarie. Si le roman dit anticolonial, à la lumière de Batouala , dénonce la barbarie sans surprise du colonisateur, le roman politique, à travers l’exemple de Rue des pas perdus , met en évidence la barbarie effarante et inattendue du dictateur nègre, le substitut tropical du Boundjou , le commandant blanc
Communication, Tourisme Et Durabilité : Impacts Sociétaux Et Enjeux Éducatifs Au Sénégal
Authors:   Docteur en SIC, Spécialiste du Tourisme
Published: June 2024

Le tourisme nouveau, résultante des caractéristiques de cette interconnexion planétaire que symbolise la mondialisation en termes de progrès économique, social et technologique, se trouve ainsi, de par son aspect culturel, relationnel et commercial, sous la voûte de la communication qui, aujourd’hui, le détermine à tous points de vue. Évolution transactionnelle, à travers les technologies de l’information et de la communication, rapprochement des peuples, grâce à de meilleures conditions de voyages et de dialogues (voiries, aviation, autres moyens de locomotion, médias, Internet etc., étant les avatars de cette mobilité). Néanmoins, s’il est possible de chanter les valeurs nouvelles promues par le tourisme à travers tous ces dynamismes communicationnels et économiques, il n’en demeure pas moins que de véritables bouleversements socioculturels résultent de cet avènement planétaire et plus particulièrement pour les destinations du Sud qui se trouvent classées au label de l’exotisme. Il est évident que, loin d’une unanimité avantageuse, le tourisme tel que pratiqué dans ces nouvelles destinations soulève de grandes inquiétudes. Déjà, loin de l’Afrique et du Sénégal, Cecil Rajendra, à travers ce poème s’indignait des impacts environnementaux et culturels du tourisme.
De La Projection Humaniste Du Même Dans L’autre En Afrique Traditionnelle À La Désintegration Des Modalités Relationnelles Dans Les Sociétés Modernes
Authors:   Université de Dschang-Cameroun,   Université de Dschang-Cameroun
Published: June 2024

Le système axiologique négro-africain promu par les premiers penseurs de l’Egypte pharaonique était loin de faire de l’individu un atome libre, déconnecté aussi bien du milieu naturel que de ses partenaires sociaux. Son monisme vitaliste, voire finaliste au fondement duquel se trouve la « maât » consolidait non seulement la solidarité de destin entre l’homme et les autres éléments de la biosphère, mais aussi et surtout la justice et l’équité entre l’individu et le groupe auquel il appartenait. Mais à la suite du développement fulgurant de l’esprit positiviste au lendemain de la Modernité, le délitement du tissu social et la distinction oppositive établie entre « l’individu-sujet » et la « natureobjet » portent un coup dur à l’idée de solidarité qui devrait, en principe, constituer l’épine dorsale de tout projet de société politiquement et éthiquement viable. Dans un tel contexte, comment résoudre le problème de la crise de l’altérité à partir de l’éthique communicationnelle d’inspiration habermassienne ? Telle est la principale équation éthique de cette réflexion pour la résolution de laquelle nous passerons en revue, tour à tour, l’idéal de solidarité inhérente au système axiologique négroafricain, puis le contraste entre ce système et le modèle positiviste et individualiste moderne, que nous essayons, à notre tour, de surmonter à partir de l’ « éthique de la discussion » de Jürgen Habermas.
Le Paradigme Éthique Dans L’univers Philosophique De Charles Robert Dimi
Authors:   Université de Dschang, Cameroun
Published: June 2024

Aristote définissait l’éthique comme la quête du souverain Bien, celui-là qui doit être recherché pour lui-même et non pour un quelconque intérêt qui lui soit étranger. Cette quête s’appuie sur des piliers axiologiques qui, tous, convergent vers l’accomplissement du Bien, en l’occurrence la Justice, la Vérité, la Tempérance, la Prudence, etc. Ainsi comprise, l’éthique est une dimension de l’activité philosophique qui dote l’homme d’une armature axiologique, canonique et principielle lui permettant de s’émanciper des miasmes et pesanteurs empiriques, biophysiques et donc instinctuels, pour aller à la rencontre de son humanité spirituelle. La perspective téléologique étant l’épanouissement à la fois individuel et, surtout, collectif du fait de l’harmonie interpersonnelle et du bonheur qu’elle procure. De ce point de vue, Charles Robert Dimi pense que les tout premiers balbutiements de la réflexion éthique sont à chercher dans la posture philosophique de Socrate . Celui-ci, constatant la déliquescence morale de la cité athénienne, laquelle fut en proie à des pseudo-valeurs telles que l’injustice, le culte des biens matériels, la corruption, le mensonge, l’imprudence, la méchanceté, l’impiété, etc., entreprit d’ « extirper le mal à la racine en faisant triompher la vérité et la vertu3 ». Socrate est, en effet, convaincu de la bienfaisance de la philosophie dont l’éthique en est une composante essentielle ; il la conçoit, d’après Dimi, comme une « activité vitale/existentielle qui fait accéder l’âme au royaume de l’éternité4 », celui des valeurs immuables, notamment la vérité et la justice dont la vocation est d’accomplir le bien. Charles Robert Dimi, en attribuant la paternité de l’initiative éthique au « père de la philosophie », à savoir Socrate, semble insinuer, avec raison du reste, la consubstantialité de l’éthique à la philosophie. Voilà pourquoi, fort de ce principe, la catégorie éthique va irradier quasiment tout l’univers philosophique de ce penseur, laquelle confère une unité et une cohérence certaines à la pluralité thématique de son œuvre : des enjeux de la réforme pédagogique dans le contexte africain à la mondialisation, en passant par l’épineuse question du développement du continent africain, ou encore celle des enjeux de la réflexion philosophique.
Contribution À L’étude Des Balantes De La Guinée Bissau
Authors:   Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar, Sénégal
Published: June 2024

On compte une vingtaine d'ethnies en Guinée-Bissau. Sur une population estimée à 1.442.029 habitants en juillet 2006, les Balantes (30%) constituent l'ethnie la plus nombreuse, devant les Fulas (20%), les Manjaks (14%), les Mandingues (13%), les Papels (7%), les Mankañ (3%), les Bijogos (2,5%). Les autres ethnies (Bajarankés, Baynuks, Beafadas, Brames, Felupes, Ganjolas, Kasangas, Nalus, Soninké, Suas, Susus, etc.) représentent 10, 5% . Après avoir procédé à une présentation dialectologique de la langue balante et donné un aperçu historique sur le peuplement balante, nous examinons les questions relatives à l’organisation sociale et économique, à la religion et à l’habitat des Balantes de la Guinée-Bissau.
Une Étude Des Causes De La Défaite Du Sosso Et De La Victoire Du Mandé Au Xiiie Siècle : L’art Militaire Chez Soundjata
Authors:   Université Alassane Ouatara de Bouaké, Côte d’Ivoire
Published: June 2024

Artisan principal de la fondation de l’empire du Mali, Soundjata est l’un des chefs militaires les plus chantés par les griots africains. Pourtant, si nous connaissons les étapes de la guerre qui l’a opposé à ses adversaires armés, il n’en est pas de même des techniques militaires qu’il a employées pour les vaincre. Or, ceci est nécessaire pour comprendre les ressorts de son triomphe final d’une part, et améliorer nos connaissances sur les causes de la défaite du Sosso. Les questions suivantes sont donc examinées dans cette étude : comment Soundjata a-t-il triomphé de ses adversaires ? Comment se battait-il ? Dans cette étude, notre hypothèse est que les succès militaires de Soundjata s’expliquent par son recours aux coalitions armées, à l’emploi massif de la cavalerie et à l’usage du siège des villes. Notre principal objectif est d’analyser la tactique et la stratégie militaire appliquées par Soundjata pour vaincre. Par stratégie, nous entendons par « politique militaire » en général comme le recours aux alliances ; quant à la tactique, elle concerne les techniques concrètes appliquées sur les champs de bataille durant le conflit entre Soundjata et ses ennemis. Il s’agit des usages faits de la cavalerie, de la disposition des soldats, etc. En somme, il s’agit de déterminer l’apport de Soundjata à l’art de la guerre. Pour cette étude, nous avons eu recours principalement aux sources orales, imprimées et accessoirement aux sources arabo-berbères telles que al Umari, Ibn Battuta et Ibn Khaldun. Dans son articulation, l’article analyse les trois piliers, au moins, de l’art militaire de Soundjata : l’emploi de la cavalerie, le recours à la coalition et l’usage du siège.
Le Peuplement Du Saloum Oriental (Sénégal) Du Xvie AU Xixè Siècle : Des Mobiles Essentiellement Politiques
Authors:   Université Cheikh Anta DIOP de Dakar, Sénégal
Published: June 2024

Le Saloum Oriental communément appelé, à tort, Ndoucoumane constitue la partie est du Royaume du Saloum. Il est constitué des provinces du Ndoucoumane, du Nguer, du Pakala-Mandakh et de Koungheul. Ainsi le Ndoucoumane n’est qu’une de ses quatre composantes. Le Saloum oriental fut érigé en entité administrative coloniale au lendemain du protectorat français sur le Saloum, en 1888, et dénommé résidence de Malem (1888-1901) ; il devint ensuite résidence de Kaffrine à partir de 1912 après avoir été rattaché à Kaolack à partir de 1901. De résidence de Kaffrine, il passe à subdivision de Kaffrine en 1934 qui donnera respectivement le cercle de Kaffrine en 1958, le département de Kaffrine en 1960 et l’actuelle région de Kaffrine (avec de légères modifications). Le Saloum oriental se singularise par la diversité et la structuration de son peuplement. En effet, la région abrite la plupart des ethnies de l’Afrique de l’ouest. Ethnies dont l’installation s’est effectuée, du 16ème siècle à la fin de la période coloniale, en deux grandes vagues ou deux grandes périodes (XVIème siècle- XIXème siècle et XIXème siècle -XXème siècle). Le XVIème siècle, début du processus, se caractérise par le bouleversement de la carte politique et démographique de la Sénégambie. Cette situation résulte des migrations des Peuls amorcées dans la deuxième moitié du XVème siècle, des guerres de Koli Tenguéla et de la dislocation du Djolof. Le XVIème siècle a vu également la fondation du royaume du Saloum par Mbégane Ndour. Tous ces facteurs vont faire du Saloum Oriental une terre d’accueil.
Conservatism In Batik Micro Business Strategies in the New Media Era
Authors: Poernomo Djoko , Sisbintari Ika , Karyadi Hari , Kristyanto Wheny
Published: June 2024

Batik can no longer be considered static; it must be seen as a dynamic tradition that can be communicated and developed. It is therefore necessary to develop a new awareness, wherein the preservation of batik traditions is undertaken by popularizing the textile using innovative products, technologies, and marketing approaches. This study seeks to address shortcomings in previous research by highlighting the conservatism in the strategies used by batik microbusinesses. This research employed a qualitative design, with primary data collected through observation and interviews with the owners of batik microbusinesses. We conducted content analysis of relevant secondary data to support this study's arguments. This study finds that conservative business practices are employed by batik microbusinesses due to efforts to maintain local values and delays in integrating new technologies (particularly the new media). Likewise, innovations in products, production methods, and marketing approaches have been limited. This study is limited by its focus on batik microbusinesses. Future studies should seek a broader understanding.

خلق الله سبحانه وتعالى الانسان وأوجد له الدين لينظم علاقة الناس مع بعضهم البعض وينظم علاقتهم مع الله تعالى، واختار سبحانه وتعالى لعباده ديناً قيماً جعله للناس كافة وأرسل فيه الأنبياء والمرسلين، فقال عز من قائل:(إِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡإِسۡلَٰمُۗ وَمَا ٱخۡتَلَفَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ إِلَّا مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلۡعِلۡمُ بَغۡيَۢا بَيۡنَهُمۡۗ وَمَن يَكۡفُرۡ بِـَٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَرِيعُ ٱلۡحِسَابِ )(آل عمران: 19)
وهو دين التوحيد الذي جاء فيه سائر الأنبياء والمرسلين (عليهم السلام) وقد قسم الله تعالى هذا الدين الذي ارتضاه لعباده إلى شرائع ورسالات فكانت اليهودية أولاً ثم النصرانية التي أنبثقت من رحم اليهودية ثم ختمت بشريعة الاسلام التي خصَّ الله تعالى بها هذه الأمة المرحومة وجعل نبيها محمد(ﷺ) للناس كافة بشيراً ونذيراً، وقد أُختُلِفَ فيما إذا كانت شريعة الاسلام جاءت ناسخة لما قبلها من الشرائع أم لا؟ فمنهم من أنكر النسخ بالجملة، ومنهم من جوزه عقلاً وأنكره نقلاً، وهذا ما سنبينه في بحثنا هذا بمناقشة أدلة كل فريق وتحريرها، ومن الله التوفيق والسداد.
الاستعارة والمقاربات المفاهيمية للقوة في العلاقات الدولية
Authors: الزيداوي م.د.انس حسن حميد
Published: June 2024

لقد ارتبطت ظاهرة القوة عبر التاريخ بظاهرة الحرب، والدور المركزي الذي تلعبه في حقل العلاقات الدولية ككل، لكن التغير في بيئة النظام الدولي بصورة مستمرة، والتطورات التكنولوجية، والأهم من ذلك، التأثير العالمي المتزايد للعولمة، أدى إلى التغيير في طبيعة الحرب ووظيفتها. في القرن الحادي والعشرين، سعت الدول إما إلى الهيمنة أو الهروب منها. وبالنتيجة تغيير مفهوم وماهية القوة ووظيفتها في العلاقات الدولية. ولان المعضلات الفلسفية للمفاهيم في العلاقات الدولية هي في الاصل مشاكل لغوية وايديولوجية فكرية على حدٍ سواء، انعكست تلك المعضلات على شكل ومضمون تعريفات القوة. ولان الغموض هو السمة الأساسية لظاهرة القوة، انعكس هذا الغموض على فهم العلاقات الدولية، حتى امست الحاجة الى إزالة الغموض عنها ضرورة وليست حاجة. ان الغموض الذي يحيط بظاهرة القوة مرده الى طبيعتها العالمية بمعنى آخر، لأنها لم تكن حكراً على مجتمع وثقافة واحدة. وبهدف إزالة هذا الغموض لجئ الدارسين الى تبني الاستعارات اللغوية لشرح وتبسيط معانيها، ولكن ذلك زات من غموضها عند انتقال تلك الشروحات بين المجتمعات مختلفة اللغات وجعل من تعدد مقارباتها المفاهيمية نتيجة طبيعية.

Authors: Nouri Zahra , Haghi Nashrodkoli Roqaye , Habibzadeh Kimia
Published: June 2024

Objective: The purpose of the current research was to investigate the relationship between narcissism, perfectionism, and parenting styles, and the mediating role of coping styles in this relationship. Methods and Materials: This study was descriptive-correlational and conducted using structural equation modeling (SEM). The population of this research consisted of Iranian men and women, with 250 individuals analyzed as the primary sample. Data collection was carried out through convenience sampling using questionnaire links. The instruments used in this study included the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (Raskin & Hall, 1979), the Baumrind Parenting Styles Questionnaire (1971), the Perfectionism Questionnaire by Hill et al. (2004), and the Coping Styles Questionnaire by Carver, Scheier, and Weintraub (1989). Data analysis was performed using SPSS and AMOS statistical software. Findings: Findings indicate that authoritarian and permissive parenting styles are associated with higher levels of narcissism. Perfectionism, especially when it manifests negatively, is related to narcissism. Furthermore, coping styles act as mediators in these relationships, such that individuals with more positive coping styles are less prone to narcissism. Conclusion: This study can contribute to a better understanding of the relationships between parenting styles, perfectionism, and narcissism, and can be useful in designing therapeutic and preventive programs for individuals with narcissistic personality disorder. Additionally, the findings of this research can assist parents and professionals in avoiding parenting styles and coping methods that may contribute to the reinforcement of narcissism.

Published: June 2024

Objective: Academic procrastination is a common issue among students that significantly impacts their educational outcomes. The objective of this study was to explore the impact of childhood trauma on academic procrastination and examine the mediating role of identity crisis among female high school students in Karaj, Iran. This research aimed to elucidate the complex interrelationships between personal trauma, identity development, and educational behaviors. Methods and Materials: The study utilized a descriptive correlational design, employing structural equation modeling to analyze the data. A total of 384 female high school students from Karaj participated in the study. Data were collected using standardized instruments, including the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, the Identity Crisis Questionnaire, and various measures of academic procrastination related to different academic tasks. Statistical analysis was performed using SmartPLS to assess direct and indirect relationships among the variables. Findings: The results revealed significant direct effects of childhood trauma on academic procrastination (β = .201, p < .001) and identity crisis (β = .290, p < .001). Furthermore, identity crisis significantly mediated the relationship between childhood trauma and academic procrastination (indirect effect β = .091, p < .001). These findings underscore the profound influence of early adverse experiences and identity struggles on academic behaviors. Conclusion: The study concludes that childhood trauma and identity crisis are significant predictors of academic procrastination. Identity crisis mediates the impact of childhood trauma on procrastination, suggesting that interventions addressing both psychological healing and identity development could be beneficial in reducing procrastinatory behaviors among students.

Published: June 2024

Objective: Aggression in the early years of life leads to the emergence of individual problems such as a poor self-concept and poor academic performance, as well as interpersonal issues such as rejection by peers in a child's life. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral play therapy and Gestalt play therapy on vandalistic behaviors, impulsivity, and cognitive flexibility in aggressive male elementary students. Methods and Materials: This quasi-experimental research was conducted with a pre-test, post-test design with a control group and a follow-up period. The research population consisted of aggressive elementary students from District 6 of Tehran, 45 of whom were selected through purposive non-random sampling and randomly assigned to two experimental groups (cognitive behavioral play therapy and Gestalt play therapy) and one control group. The Madrigal Vandalistic Behaviors Questionnaire (2006), Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (1993), and Denz and Vandewall Cognitive Flexibility Questionnaire (1977) were used. The first experimental group underwent 8 sessions of 60-minute cognitive behavioral play therapy, and the second experimental group underwent 10 sessions of 60-minute Gestalt play therapy. Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA and SPSS software version 22. Findings: The results showed that both cognitive behavioral play therapy and Gestalt play therapy were effective in reducing vandalistic behaviors, impulsivity, and in enhancing cognitive flexibility (P<0.05). Furthermore, the findings indicated that Gestalt play therapy was more effective than cognitive behavioral play therapy (P<0.05). Conclusion: Cognitive behavioral play therapy and Gestalt play therapy were effective in improving aggression and Gestalt play therapy was more effective than cognitive behavioral play therapy. Therefore, these approaches can be utilized alongside medical treatments and care in therapeutic centers.

Authors: Wu Ji
Published: June 2024

As part of the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, the local digital governance model is still in the exploratory stage, and there is an urgent need for academics to clarify whether digital technology can, to a certain extent, empower rural economic development and promote rural revitalization. Taking 58 counties in Anhui Province as the research object, this study adopts a multilevel governance theoretical perspective and the QCA method to identify the realization paths of high digital governance levels. It is found that (1) none of the single antecedent conditions can individually constitute a necessary condition for the improvement of county economic development level (high quality development of county economy). (2) The grouping analysis reveals that there is a common path to promote the improvement of county economic development level, i.e., the digital village grouping consisting of digital infrastructure, digital governance, and digital life. The findings of the study help deepen the rational understanding of the government and localities on digital governance, provide practical insights on digital governance in counties in China, and propose a path to optimize digital empowerment for rural revitalization.
