Articuler construction des savoirs, pratiques écrites et orales au lycée : le rôle du débat interprétatif délibératif en classe de français by Marie-France Rossignol, Brigitte Marin

“…While the high-level cognitive activity targeted by spoken debates cannot meet the demands of all learning objectives, the debate form consolidates subject-specific and cross-disciplinary knowledge and skills on a more egalitarian basis. More specifically, spoken debates foster the development of specialized literary reading skills and broader social and civic skills that subtend the process of individual identity construction in a group class context.…”

“They Are Our Children”: An Examination of Faith-Based, Tuition-Free, Private Schools as Potential Sites of Educational Opportunity for Refugee Children in Egypt and Lebanon by Sally Wesley Bonet, Samira Nabil Chatila

“…(1) Background: Turning the lens away from national schooling, which has long been proven problematic for refugee populations, this comparative case study explores the educational opportunities that faith-based, tuition-free schools provide refugee youth living in protracted exile in low and middle-income neighboring countries. (2) Methods: Leveraging Shirazi and Jaffe-Walter’s concept of countertopography and Bartlett and Vavrus’s comparative case study, this article draws on ethnographic engagement (2017–2019) at “Cairo Christian Academy”, a Sudanese refugee school in Egypt, and qualitative interviews with teachers, administrators, and staff at “Beirut Covenant School” (2020–2021) in Lebanon to answer the following question: What is possible within private, faith-based, tuition-free schools—particularly schools that teach secular curricula and are open to children from all faith backgrounds, as these mirror some of the more egalitarian aspects of public education—which have absorbed refugee students as a part of their mission to care for others? …”

“…Although some research has been conducted on citizens’ social media debates on consent, how such debates include the concept of communicative acts to discuss it has not been analyzed yetMethods55 gender-related Instagram and Twitter (now known as X) posts—published and extracted over the course of 14 days—were analyzed.ResultsFindings reveal that most posts refer to Power Communicative Acts as a hindrance for consent due to hierarchical power imbalances or to coercion, and called for the need to establish elements of Dialogic Communicative Acts to achieve consent and construct more egalitarian environments. Finally, most posts that considered ethics spoke about the need for perpetrators to be held accountable or offered similar takes on consequentialism.DiscussionThese findings help illustrate how several social media debates about consent successfully fall into the Communicative Acts framework.…”

Islamist Women of Hamas : Between Feminism and Nationalism by Islah Jad

“…Hamas’ gender ideology, like that of the secularist parties, remains contradictory, and doors to women’s equality only partly open ; nevertheless, Islamist women have managed to build impressive, well-organised women’s constituencies among highly educated and professional women coming from poor and refugee backgrounds ; and the Salvation Party shows an increasing tendency to foster gender equality and more egalitarian social ideals, while holding fast to the agenda of national liberation. …”

Refusing the Referendum: Queer Latino Masculinities and Utopian Citizenship in Justin Torres’ We the Animals by Marion Christina Rohrleitner

“…In ongoing limbo as an unincorporated territory of the United States, the legal condition of Puerto Rico always already queers the myth of an egalitarian, democratic nation. A queer coming of age/coming out narrative, We the Animals features a first person narrator, the youngest of three Puerto Rican brothers, who grows up in a working class home in upstate New York and emerges as someone who rejects the very values that strive to “normalize” queer life via assimilation into legally defined and sanctioned coupledom. …”

Delineating the Western Orders of Rights and Reason in Post‑Colonial Africa by Aswathi A. Nair

“… Adherence to the fundamental tenets of Human Rights and advocacy of Democracy are the two traditionally entwined Western expressions of rights and reason that any state has to comply with to be treated as an egalitarian state. The degree of democratization in any state is to be gauged by its ability to give its citizens a fairly acceptable form of governance and a slew of natural rights and legal safeguards against human rights abuses, from which the idea of justice is to flow. …”

Editorial by Daniel Halliday

“…(That it may be a surprise is due to the tendency to regard the Scandinavian nations as more egalitarian than Britain overall.) Here the authors argue that the Swedish abolition of the tax owes much to the way in which “the identity of the figurative taxpayer” has played a different role in the political narratives around inheritance taxation in both countries. …”
