Edited by Yves-François Le Lay, Frédéric Le Marcis, Camille Martin et Igor Moullier
The "Sociétés, espaces, temps" collection has, since 1993, been publishing works covering predominantly history, geography and sociology which address issues and themes which bring together the three disciplines. It includes original and unpublished research projects on cross-cutting themes or objects of study, along with plentiful epistemological reflection. It devotes attention to the history of the disciplines themselves, prior to the current divisions. Firmly fixed in the contemporary world, it remains open to older periods of history.
The collection consists predominantly of monographs and is designed to incorporate both paper-based materials and digital and interactive resources and corpora.
Trésors invisibles du fleuve
The River's Hidden Treasures
Sociétés, espaces, temps
This book, the result of a unique interdisciplinary collaboration between France and Mexico, sheds light on a little-known aspect of the Usumacinta River: sediments. Invisible and overlooked, they nevertheless serve fundamental ecological and social functions and constitute both the river's invisible wealth and its living memory.
Half-way between the textbook and the collection of case studies, this book takes readers behind the scenes of the sociological analysis of religion. Through eleven original contributions, it demonstrates how sociologists can engage with religious matters and contribute through them to a better understanding of society.

Enquêtes sur la mécanisation de l'agriculture et ses conséquences
Surveys on the mechanisation of agriculture and its consequences
Sociétés, espaces, temps
This book presents the historical trajectory and the social mechanisms that allowed machines to become the central techniques in the emergence of "modern" and "productive" agriculture. At the intersection of the history and sociology of agriculture, technology, labour and the environment, the book identifies the political and fiscal mechanisms.
La construction matérielle de la domination
The material construction of domination
Sociétés, espaces, temps
Do objects have power? How do they contribute to the constantly renewed construction of social power relations? As part of the "material turn" in the social sciences, this book shows that material objects are both operators and indicators of the mechanisms of power and domination that structure societies and their spaces.
Between 1871 and the 1920s, rural banditry was one of the main forms of protest against the colonial authorities. Focusing on the trajectories and horizons of the actors themselves, this book seeks to shed light on a phenomenon that set itself up as a counterweight to the triumph of colonial domination.
Une sociologie affirmative
An Affirmative Sociology
Sociétés, espaces, temps
The book proposes to take human rights as a sociological object based on the example of the social controversy of the recognition of "universal legal capacity". He defends an "affirmative sociology" consisting of participating in the production of social ideals.
Le cas des nouvelles migrations italiennes à Paris
The Case of New Italian Migration to Paris
Sociétés, espaces, temps
Since the financial crisis of the late 2000s, young adults from Italy have taken to the road of exile once again. These new migrations, little studied, are presented in the media as a brain drain. Through an ethnographic survey of Italians who have recently arrived in Paris, this book proposes a different approach, focusing on the role of family.
