Les mots du vote de la Rome antique à la Révolution française
Mots. Les langages du politique
Words describing voting, from Ancient Rome to the French Revolution
Since no comprehensive study has yet been devoted to the Latin vocabulary describing voting, this issue proposes to approach the analysis of these ancient political realities from the lexicological angle, which is often neglected in historical approaches. Although the Romans did have a rich vocabulary to describe the practices of appointing people to public offices, the strictly technical aspect of this vocabulary are not obvious; and so it is necessary to study the historical, political and literary contexts in which the principal Latin terms covering elections, like creare, facere, suffragium (among others) are used. Even during the ancient period alone, the lively and changing lexicon covering voting – between Latin and Greek, Republican and Imperial times – enjoyed a considerable richness, and during the Middle Ages, the Renaissance and the Classical Age, as the words were read, interpreted and sometimes translated by the commentators of the classical texts and the political actors of these periods. Consequently, it was important to offer analyses in the context of the various settings where this vocabulary could be reused, or even made more popular. Turning to Latin words to refer to voting is not the same in municipal Italy of the 13th-14th centuries, during the debates on the notion of sovereignty in the 16th century, or those on citizenship in the 18th century. The translation of these terms implies ideological choices, conscious or unconscious, whether it be Pierre Bersuire (c. 1350), the first translator of the works of Livy and of the word suffragium into French, or antiquity enthusiasts of the contemporary period.

This issue sets out to explore the various discursive mechanisms of depoliticisation, including the disqualification of a political approach to the issues and subjects at stake, the narrowing of the space for democratic debate, and the invisibilisation of politics through the gradual imposition of supposedly apolitical rationalities.
Valérie Bonnet, Arnaud Mercier, Gilles Siouffi
This issue of Mots focuses on the interdiscursive and mimetic practices at work in the discourse of conspiracy. It aims to identify the linguistic points that crystallise this circulation and to develop and share an analysis toolbox.
Paul Bacot, Valérie Bonnet, François Genton
Among all the songs that celebrate and objectify the existence of a human collective, anthems occupy a prominent place, but not an exclusive one. This dossier deals with the conditions of their emergence, their linguistic and musical characteristics, their transformations and their multiple social uses.

De la racine à l'extrémisme. Discours des radicalités politiques et sociales
From the root to extremism. Political and social radicality in speech
Starting from the definition of the discourse of political radicality as both a discourse of (de)legitimisation and a discourse of confrontation, the aim of this issue of the journal Mots is to define (de)radicalisation strategies. It also sets out to define the ways in which the discourse of political radicality is understood.
Valérie Bonnet, Chloé Gaboriaux, Marie Plassart
Group formation in part happens through discourses that contribute to invent, sustain and transform our imagination of society. This collection of articles proposes an account of the discursive construction of groups, which is wider than the question of naming social or political groups.
Valérie Bonnet, Albane Geslin
The present collection of articles sheds light on the vibrant research field of discourse analysis on ecological and environmental controversies, which includes studies of lexicon, discourse and argument. The articles analyze several controversies (on fracking, geothermics or planning projects) as well as the citizens' perception of the future.
Valérie Bonnet, Roland Canu
Public discourse is rife with lay and expert talk on the economic crisis. A variety of narratives by politicians, journalists and citizens got woven into representations of "the economic crisis". This issue of Mots focuses on some of those narratives with the combined insights of linguistics, political science and sociology.
Valérie Bonnet, Henri Boyer
This issue deals with the connections between linguistic variation in political and media discourses and the judgement this variation from the standard french may imply.
