Mots. Les langages du politique
Let's stick together! The discursive construction of social relations
What does "belonging to a group" mean when community practices tend to fade out or when they are a pretext for rejecting others? Discourses play a crucial role at that point: individuals give life and meaning to their social relations, as well as transform them, through discourse. This collection of articles proposes an account of the discursive construction of groups. The latter is made visible in the questioning of group-naming by the speakers themselves, as with the words pieds-noirs, harkis or Algerians in Mailys Kydjian's article, or with the naming of what is supposed to unite the group – “nationality” in the article by Suzanne Forbes and Anna Plassart or “patriotism” in Marie Plassart’s article. The discursive construction of groups can be grasped at the intersection of two dimensions, as is the case with Amnesty International, either defined by “expertise” or “engagement”, in a quest for ways to smooth out the distinctions between its “employees” and its “volunteers” (Amaia Errecart). The discursive construction of groups also appears more individually and less directly in the enunciative patterns devised by individuals when the evoke their relation to groups, as shown by Thomas Liano with his study of Jean Genet and the Black Panthers.

Invoking "the Republic", calling oneself a "Republican"... Does the term Republic still have any meaning? The texts in this issue show that the polysemy of the word is less a reflection of the evanescence of its meaning than of a polymorphous debate on the definition of citizenship in a world marked by deepening individualism.

This dossier focuses on the framing of migratory phenomena as a crisis, with a particular focus on what discourses of crisis do to reception. It brings together contributions from researchers from various disciplines, who investigate both the discursive constructions of the migration crisis and the crisis of discourses on migration.

The choice of multilingualism in international organisations involves constant - and costly - translation and interpreting work, the political repercussions of which are still too often underestimated. This dossier aims to shed light on the political repercussions of this work, from a multidisciplinary perspective.
Chloé Gaboriaux, Camille Noûs
This dossier brings together contributions dealing with words at work. Coming from political science, sociology, anthropology or information and communication sciences, the authors examine the way in which the neo-managerial discourse is conveyed and imposed by private and public sector executives and the way in which employees respond to it.
Henri Boyer, Chloé Gaboriaux
This dossier aims to study a recent phenomenon that is usually called "soundbites".
In the wake of pioneer work on that multifaceted subject, we have opted for a transdisciplinary approach that includes the sciences of language and communication as well as social sciences.
