Full textThis dissertation aims at proposing an interpretation concerning the divergence of the legal status of freedom of expression in relation to the protection of human dignity and privacy in the United States and in Europe. The question concerns in our opinion the fore-understanding of liberty in continental Europe and in the United States, as well as the role of the state to define the content and the limits of liberty. It is this understanding inspired by a different conception of political philosophy which is reflected in the legal appreciation of the two legal orders this difference has its origins in the revolutionary movements, which posed me foundation of the two democracies. This conception was also inevitably influenced by the political problems of the same time as well as by the weight of the intellectual ideas, which preceded the two movements. Their evolution in the course of time brought nuances to the political ideas of the foundation which are equally useful to our understanding. France is an exemplary case for continental Europe since the principal ideas underlying the French revolution concerning the understanding of liberty and the role of the state influenced considerably the conception of democracy in the other European states

Full textThis dissertation addresses the question of the links between the commercial revolution and the political revolution at the end of the eighteenth century. In particular, it analyses the connected issue of the colonial exclusif and of liberty of trade; as a problem of political economy, as a sum of legal norms and as commercial practices. This enables to shed light on the variety of political associations that emerged in the Age of Revolutions. The case study is the political and economic relationships between the wealthiest colony in the world, Saint-Domingue, the metropole and the United States, From the 1778 French-American alliance to the birth of Haiti i 1804. This dissertation aims at questioning the so-called rise of the nation-state. It disputes the idea that the French Revolution exclusively created a unitary and centralized nation-state, founded on national sovereignty and defined as the political expression of the community of citizens. It also places the United States in its postcolonial history and reminds that independence was not the only possible end to the revolution in Saint-Domingue. This illuminates the multiplicity of imperial experimentations that took place in the Atlantic World at different scales, both within and beyond national borders and in the framework of a globalized economy. Thus, it becomes possible to follow the sinuous paths and crossings of intertwined revolutions
Hervé, Michel. "Une bataille jugée : la défaite des Saintes (12 avril 1782 ) et le Conseil de guerre de Lorient." Paris 4, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA040079.
Full textThe battle at the Saintes opposed the British and French fleets on April 12, 1782. The French navy was commended by comte de Grasse who has been famous the preceding year in the Chesapeake bay, by beating admiral Graves. Thanks to this victory, Yorktown was occupied and the United States win independency. In 1782 the British navy will get their revenge and Admiral Rodney will defeat de Grasse who was getting prepared to invade Jamaica. Back in Versailles, De Grasse to justify himself accused his squadron commanders Vaudreuil and Bougainville to have disobeyed his orders. A war council was then installed by Louis XVI. Three hundred and four sailors will then summoned to Lorient as witnesses, and each of them will try and justify his conduct. After three months of trial, Bougainville was the only one condemned, and all the other officers were acquitted. De Grasse was the real loser of the trial. He was forbidden to command a ship again and during a century years he was disgraced in the French navy. But the Americans and Washington will always pay tribute to him

Full textGrounded on a rich audiovisual corpus, this dissertation focuses on the audiovisual representations of the commemoration of the American Revolution Bicentennial. Composed of three chapters, this work analyzes the process of memory and identity making that emerged from this anniversary. My research shows the demagogic, ideological and prophetic caracter of the commemoration, a series of events that celebrate the past in order to restore unity, form the national identity and shape the country’s future.The first chapter examines two pivotal aspects of the celebrations: in the one hand, the importance that the adverse context of the seventies played in the development of the audiovisual materials, and on the other hand, how the organizers of the events instrumentalized the past in order to reinstate the national unity. This instrumentalization led to the construction of a national mythology and the preservation of the collective memory.In the second chapter, I analyze the various national and international projects along with the public targeted or consciously forgotten by the organizers. In this chapter, the popular character of the commemoration is highlighted and I unveil the identity myth that went with it. Multiculturalism and historical context pushed the government and the organizers to imagine worldwide celebrations, and an universalization of the memory process evolving around the messianic temptation of the United States.Finally, I demonstrate how the national collective memory was remapped through a selective representation of the Revolution’s events, figures, and values using different broadcasting methods and formats adjusted to audiovisual stakes

Full textIt is during the age of Revolutions that the career of Thomas Paine (1737-1809) as a political writer unfurled. His first significant writing, Common Sense, published in January 1776, put forward a programme which was revolutionary in two ways : he established representative democracy as the only legitimate political regime, and thus, he altered the meaning of the concepts of revolution, constitution and republic, relying on an interpretation of the social contract theory which excluded all monarchical or aristocratic, in a word, hereditary elements from the political sphere. Studying his thought in relation to the theories of his time enables one to get the full measure of its originality. A pioneer, therefore, at the same time liberal and republican, he defended the equality of political rights, especially universal suffrage. His conception of revolution was that of a moderate who did not yield to anarchism or to communism. However, he was more successful in the theorization of revolution than in the historiography of the Revolutions, as Rights of Man notably proves. A foe of royalty, he nonetheless remained faithful to his humanism which led him to ask for the banishment of Louis XVI and his family in America. He was part of the circle of the Girondin thinkers and he was a victim of the Terror, though he escaped the guillotine. In 1802, he went back to the United States, disappointed by his European revolutionary experience, with France groaning under new chains and Great Britain having refused to follow the example of the men of 1789, but his hostility to Edmund Burke's views never ceased, so convinced he remained that the enjoyment of liberty for all was a perpetual political horizon
Charbonneau, François. "« Une part égale de liberté : le patriotisme anglais et la Révolution américaine »." Paris, EHESS, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007EHES0111.
Full textThis thesis explores a central paradox in both the political thought and political action of the American revolutionaries between 1765 and 1776. The Americans understood the British parliament's attempt to tax them as a constitutional issue, i. E. , for them, a question of political liberty. The imperial crisis offered the Americans an opportunity to define what they understood by liberty and the political conditions necessary to its existence. For them, as for contemporary English political thought, liberty was defined as absence of dependence. It would thus be inadmissible for Americans to be placed in a situation of dependence upon the uncontrolled will of the British parliamentarians. Paradoxically, Americans desired nothing more during the entire crisis than to maintain their dependence upon Great-Britain and its institutions. The will to maintain a dependent status within the British Empire was so strong that Americans refused to declare their independence for more than a year after the beginning of open warfare with the mother country. The following thesis suggest that the imperial crisis should be understood as a failure on the part of the American to reconcile their will to be both free and at the same time dependent upon Great-Britain. It offers a different interpretation of the reasons why Americans were so reluctant to secede, finding that English patriotism is the key to comprehending this paradox. Within the context of their political thought, patriotism was understood to be the primary political virtue that allowed freedom to thrive within the body politic. In this contest for liberty, in which Americans have tried to be better Englishmen than the English, a conviction will emerge that only the equal liberty of all men is compatible with political freedom. This idea will be ever so present in the early state Constitutions of 1775-1780

Full textHistoriography often neglects the part of Francophone migrants in the young American republic, merely following the route of the most famous political exiles banished by the French Revolution and the Restoration, or the Utopians dreaming to establish a new society in the New World. In the Early Republic faced with the thorny problem of slavery, the agony of colonial empires and the birth of entrepreneurship and capitalism, many migrants tried fortune beyond the Atlantic Ocean, between 1783 and 1815, establishing in the “Creole corridor” powerful commercial, cultural and religious ties between east coast, New Orleans, West Indies and Atlantic space. This is the purpose of this discussion that borrows the path opened by the Atlantic history, and proposes, through the study of correspondence and archival resources, an innovative history of francophone business migrations from Pittsburgh to Louisville in the age of the Atlantic Revolutions
