Ndiaye, Malick. "Senegal : pouvoir politique et forces sociales. de l'assemblee constituante ( novembre dix neuf cent cinquante huit ) a decembre soixante deux." Paris 7, 1986. http://www.theses.fr/1986PA070066.
Full textThe purpose of this work is about the circumtances movement which begins on the twenty-fifth of november nine teen fifty eight, the date on which the constituent assembly of senegal re-assembled, and finishes on the eighteenth of december nineteen sixty two with the resolution of the political crisis which had been brewing among the ranks of the leaders of the first modern senegal state. This study deals with the transition between the end of colonial regime properly speaking and the beginning of the second republic, and shows how, by a singular combination of circumstances, the developement of these ones which could have led to a military coup d'etat, or to the intervention of french troupes, or to a worker's or a peasant revolution, led to senghorian bonapartist presidentialism. The twenty-fifth of november is the proclamation of the first modern state of senegal. Against what this state was imposed, it's the colony, that is to say the trade economy and the "indigenat". The reel life of the colony is limited to the great traits, to the arachidiers relations, and, in the first hand, to the relation between peasant and tradesman. The peasants compose the big majority of the population, whereas heardy totality of the country live on arachide. The antagonism between firms on one hand and the peasants on the other hand, which results from their situation, conditions the evolution of the colony. The great winner in the political crisis of december nineteen sixty two is the "chambre de commerce, d'agriculture et d'industrie de dakar, financial and economical stronghold of senegal's trade economy whose direct agents in apparatus state and party, delmas, theophile james, assane ndoye, lamine gueye, abdoulaye fofana, succeeded in setting aside a bloodless and isolated dia governement, who failed to a simple phillip of a noisy and excited parlement fraction, after he did expulse from political scene the social forces that had taken him to power

Full textThis doctoral dissertation is an account of current female experiences I observed in Senegalese society. These experiences, often perceived as « transgressive» by Senegalese male authorities, namely religious and other moral guides, allow us to uncover a Senegalese society faced with the pressures of glocalization. Senegalese society is trying to negociate a balance between the preservation of fundamental principles (virtue, morality, tolerance, tradition, etc) and certain behaviours and life styles of women who are no longer afraid to free themselves from established socialization channels and explore new subjectivities. Faced with these tensions, a culture of contradictions is dominant as embodied through various networks namely the media, moral figures, and the female actors labelled negatively. In other words, the media is often the creator of scandalous characters and may support moral and religious figures in their defense of virtue, the country’s moral status, and the image of the Senegalese woman. For moral figures, the contradictions are marked by the fact that there is a big gap between their own practices and the Islamic principles they embody and use to speak against facts they perceive as scandalous. As for the « transgressive » actors, they find ways to relate to religious identities and social imaginaries so as not to distance themselves too much from social norms. All these tensions reflect the contradictions of a society that defines itself as « pious », « virtuous », and «traditional », but that is constantly overwhelmed by the practices of a younger generation in tune with a globalized world

Full textThe ambition that leads this thesis is as original as fascinating: analyzing the roleof the social organization of the Gabonese sport in the context of a developing country, themode of expression of the local people in the colonial period, and the element of integrationin the concert of nations after the independences. This research, in general, seeks tocomprehend sport organizations in Gabon. It is all about understanding the implication andthe impact of sport federations in Gabon from its independence (1960) to now. A trip in thepast reveals us that sport federations are separated from the traditional culture and modernculture. Therefore, we can see why they are out of touch with the current economic and socioculturalneeds of the moment. As we travel back in time, the purpose of this thesis ismultidisciplinary and comparative, based on the methods of the sociology of sport. It seeks todecrypt historical, social, political, economic and institutional conditions; and the logic of thepresent actors, so to understand the consequences that follow, and are testimonies of a uniqueorganization a francophone area (Gabon, Cameroon, and Senegal). This thesis informs aboutthe sport policies. Who organizes? How? In whose interest? These principal questions lead usto the overall problematic: Why sport organizations in Gabon favor more imported models oforganization. In more detail, how the transposition of the French model influences sportpolicies in Gabon; and how does it interact with the local particularities. Far from being aGabonese specificity solely, the colonial input remains a substantial propriety in youngAfrican states

Full textOver 40% of Senegal’s population is under 15 years old. Education is therefore one of the main priorities ofthe Senegalese State and international organisations. In parallel to the State-schools or “French” speakingschools, Islamic schools are an answer to social and religious demands asked by Senegalese parents. Theseeducation institutions are called daara (Qu’ranic schools), or écoles franco-arabes, and are mainly based onthe memorization of the Qu’ran and the transmission of Islamic values.This research will focus on the education policy’s trajectory, from its first formulation during the colonialperiod (1857-1940), its ambivalence during the formation of the postcolonial State (1950-1980), and the shiftfrom a social policy (1990s) to its integration in the sector of education in 2000. This type of school offer haslong been the object of debate and controversies. Indeed, actors from a variety of horizons and interests (bothfrom the public and private sectors) have taken part in this policy process. The Senegalese State musttherefore compose and negotiate with numerous actors (religious, international, associative, etc.), who have apower to influence the process of negotiation.Throughout the analysis, the reader will get an insight into the educational public policy’s structure, and willunderstand the asks of all actors and the actions (or non-actions) of others. Overall, this research provides ahistorical understanding of the transformation of the Senegalese society and its constant interaction with theState. On a wider scale, it also brings us to question the traditional relationship between political andreligious spheres

Full textTouba is named for the Tree of Paradise (Tuba) of Islamic tradition and the holy city has been constructed around the singular arboreal image. The spiritual meaning imparted by Touba, a deliberate creation, is expressed in the topography of the holy city, in its geographic configuration. The thesis adapts the methodologies of spatial analysis, and specifically the semiotic reading of landscape, to the study of a religious phenomenon, i.e., the creation of a holy city.
in order to explain the significance of this holy city for Islamic eschatology, the meanings which three distinct religious traditions (Islam, West Africa, Ancient Egypt) have attached to the image of the cosmic tree are inventoried. The tree as archetype here serves to establish the continuity of African religious thought from pharaonic Egypt to modern Muslim Senegal.

Full textDuring decades, the international academic sphere has portrayed Senegal as a country exclusively sectarian in which the marabou would have some authority on his disciples. However, over the past few years researchers noticed an evolution of the religious practices in Senegal due to the arrival of new reformist currents such as Wahhabism. As a matter of fact the encounter between Wahhabism and the sufi brotherhoods triggered a doctrinal debate and an ideological shock. In this clash, the Tijāniyya is the first target of the criticisms. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to analyse this ideological conflict between Wahabism and the Tijāniyya in the South of the Sahara, focussing on Senegal. This work will answer the following questions: what are the main sticking points between the two ideological trends? How do the wahhabist and tijānī scholars tackle those issues? To what extent do those ideological disagreements appear in the literature under study? What are the strategies used by the figures of those two groups to expand their power in the sub-Saharan areas, and more specifically in Senegal?

Full textSince the late 1980s, Muslim movements have become visible in public universities and in the Senegalese political scene. Murid or Tidjian “dahiras” (communities) and other reformist associations organize various on-campus activities, such as weekly religious meetings, Islamic conferences, Quran lessons, and prayers. In addition to the emergence of these movements at public universities, the number of private Islamic schools has also increased since the 1990s, encouraged by the former government of Abdoulaye Wade (2000–2012) and supported by partners from Arab countries. This study examined these religious dynamics at institutions of higher education. Why and how do Muslim scholars represent a growing dynamic in institutions of higher education in contemporary Senegal, and how do they contribute to the production of new knowledge and power (savoirs-pouvoirs)? The answer to this question is given in two sections: a historical construction of Senegalese Muslim scholars and their relation to politics and education; and a new generation of Muslim actors, their religious life and spheres of expression, knowledge, and power.The first part of this study focuses on the historical construction of Muslim scholars since the colonial time and their relations to politics and education. A study of the change in higher education and State politics over the past half century showed the deep transformation of Senegalese society and the recent evolution of a new type of Muslim scholar. Since the colonial time, Muslim intellectuals and “arabisants” (the Arabic-speaking elite) have played an essential role in politics in Senegal. Often intermediaries between the French colony and the Senegalese indigenous population, this elite created its own status, roles, and identity. However, with the creation of modern French institutions of higher education, a new French-speaking elite or “ku jang ekool” has emerged.Between 1960 and 1980, the University of Dakar became a place of political struggle, and students developed Marxist ideologies, although there were very few religious associations and few of the Arabic/French-speaking elite were involved in the Islamic associations. The new generation of young Muslim scholars who emerged after 1980 consisted of a completely different population, as compared with the previous generation; its members were originally from the non-elite class and attracted to the traditional religious solidarity of Sufi brotherhoods. Young, liberal, and autonomous, the new religious actors are challenging the social and cultural norms of the previous generation. This transformation explains the change in the larger Senegalese political and educational scene. In fact, new politico-religious movements developed during the ideological and sociopolitical crisis of the 1980s and 90s, and the arrival of political liberalism in 2000. During this time, the universities have become more popular and associated with the lower social classes, rooted in traditional Islamic educational spaces (Quranic schools and Sufi brotherhoods) and involved in the new political scene. However, the two generations of political/religious activists share a common characteristic: both create what we call “societal energy”, promoting a new model of society for young people who are keen to participate in social and political reform.The second part of this study, based on field observations made between 2003 and 2015, describes today’s Muslim scholars and their political and religious involvement. Our observations found great diversity in the experience of “being Muslim” among young people who navigate through different values, such as Islamic teaching, Sufi spiritualism, Western modernity, and traditional Senegalese culture. They create “shifting” corporal and spatial practices inside and outside the universities. In fact, their flexibility and liberty vis-à-vis religion and politics have created new social and political dynamics in Senegal
