Minorities les Minorites: A Cultural and Political Demography,18th-20th Centuries une Demographie Culturelle et Politique, XVIIIe-XXe Siecles
La demographie des minorites traite d'un sujet extremement complexe. Les minorites sont multiples et les relations qu'elles entretiennent avec leur majorite sont tout aussi diverses et toujours susceptibles de changer. Les etudes rassemblees dans ce volume presentent differents groupes minoritaires dans leur contexte politique et culturel et developpent avec soin les modes de definition et leurs influences. Les auteurs traitent aussi des evolutions: d'une part, la reproduction de sous-populations a partir de comportements demographiques qui sont des heritages culturels, plus ou moins alteres par des contraintes qui sont des construits politiques; d'autre part, la demographie de l'integration, de la mixite et des transformations identitaires.
Minority demography deals with an extremely complex subject. Minorities are highly diverse in size and characteristics and the relations of a minority with its respective majority are also varying and controversial. The contributions to this volume analyse various minorities in their cultural and political settings and offer new interpretations of definitions and their impact. The contributors also deal with evolutions: reproduction of sub-populations through demographic behaviours culturally transmitted but altered by politically constructed constraints; demography of integration, mixing and identity changes.
