Media Review: One Battle after Another, The Past as a Safe House, and the Afterlives of Clandestine Organizing
No full textInternational audienceIn the United States, political violence circulates as a floating signifier invoked to harden policing, to delegitimize protest, and to sustain an anxious public dramaturgy.Many film critics have framed One Battle After Another, released worldwide in September 2025, as a political film that meets the moment head-on. Yet its most generative move lies elsewhere. Freely adapting Thomas Pynchon's Vineland (1990), the film treats revolution less as a program than as memory-work: clandestinity replayed like a beloved record, in the shelter of safe houses and code words, while the present stubbornly mutates its surveillance, its rhetorics, and its enemies. Read through an organizational lens, the film becomes less a manifesto than an inquiry into how underground collectives persist in the rear-view mirror: how secrecy is maintained, how partial organizations cohere, and how violence is organized, sensed, and survived. If the film feels timely, it is also because it insists on being out of sync: its politics is filtered through the afterlives of older struggles. The underground it depicts does not merely hide from the present; it shelters inside a past that keeps replaying itself.One Battle After Another compresses, at first, the story of a militant couple inside a farleft faction called the "French 75". Pat Calhoun (an anagrammatic wink to the director's initials "PTA") is played by Leonardo DiCaprio; his lover and comrade, Perfidia Beverly Hills, is played by Teyana Taylor.</p

Les MICAS pendant les JOP, ou l’usage extraordinaire d’outils routiniers
No full textInternational audienceIf the administrative antiterrorism legal framework remained unchanged during the Olympics and Paralympics, its application by the Home Office services demonstrates that the scope of behavior administratively qualified as “terrorism” has been extended. The Olympics window illustrates that, in a specific context, authorities can apply this legal framework in a way recalling the state of emergency regime operative in 2015-2017. Moreover, the Olympics of 2024 show the expansion attempts of administrative anti-terrorist policy, and suggest future reforms, particularly in the context of the 2030 Winter Olympics in the French Alps.Si le cadre juridique relatif aux MICAS est resté inchangé pendant les Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques (JOP), son application par les services du ministère de l’Intérieur témoigne d’une extension considérable du champ des comportements pouvant être qualifiés, sur le plan administratif, de « menace terroriste ». La fenêtre olympique démontre ainsi qu’à la faveur d’un contexte particulier, le cadre juridique issu de la normalisation de l’état d’urgence peut être appliqué dans un cadre rappelant la mise en œuvre de ce dernier entre 2015 et 2017. Surtout, cette fenêtre témoigne des tentatives d’extension de la police administrative antiterroriste, et laisse présager de futures réformes, notamment dans le cadre des JOP d’hiver de 2030
Panda as the flagship of China’s digital diplomacy: Rethinking the intersection of network and emotional narrative strategy
No full textInternational audienceThis chapter aims to rethink the mediated communication ontology of China’s digital public diplomacy, taking digital panda diplomacy – the most successful public diplomacy campaign of China on social media in more than a decade of digital diplomacy – as a case to identify the emotional network communication structure and narrative strategies led by Beijing, so as to serve the Communist Party of China (CPC) ’s public diplomacy goals of telling China’s stories and demonstrating positive energy towards foreign publics. Chinese media have constructed a journalistic paradigm that promotes feelings of happiness in message receivers. The online production of panda-themed news stories involves three strategies: (a) anthropomorphic rhetoric that implements human-like expressions to make pandas seem “human,” (b) visual images of pandas to mediate relevant knowledge, and (c) manipulation of panda imagery to frame political and public-diplomatic messages that endorse China and its government
Discussing the use of participatory methods with young people on the move
No full textInternational audienceIntroduction: At the end of 2025 million people were forcibly displaced worldwide. Despite the scale of this phenomenon, young migrants agedremain largely invisible in both research and policy, as illustrated by the absence of age-disaggregated data. There is therefore an urgent need for research that centers the multifaceted experiences of young people growing up across borders. Research with populations in a condition of vulnerability and with limited rights also raises critical methodological and ethical questions. Methods: This paper draws on an ongoing comparative research project with young people on the move, employing participatory research approaches both o ine and online. The study combines more traditional qualitative participatory methods with innovative digital and creative tools. Particular attention is paid to the practical and ethical challenges of conducting participatory research with young migrants, including issues of consent, power relations, representation, and safeguarding. Results:The findings highlight both the potential and the limits of participatory methods in research with young people in forced migration contexts. Participatory approaches can foster agency, enable more nuanced accounts of lived experiences, and challenge extractive research practices. However, they also reveal significant obstacles, including uneven participation, ethical dilemmas, and institutional constraints that shape what participation can realistically achieve. Discussion: The paper discusses how participatory research with young people on the move requires constant ethical reflexivity and methodological adaptation. It argues that participatory methods can meaningfully contribute to more ethical and inclusive knowledge production when their limits are explicitly acknowledged. The article contributes to ongoing theoretical and methodological debates on participatory research with young people growing up in a situation of forced migration.</div
Extreme macroeconomic risk, personal expectations and financial decisions: an information experiment on five European countries
No full textFollowing the Covid-19 crisis, extreme macroeconomic risks in terms of both GDP and inflation have returned to the spotlight in Europe. Against this backdrop, we conducted a large-scale online survey experiment in five large European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK) to measure household expectations of future extreme macroeconomic risks and their transmission to personal expectations and planned financial decisions. Exploiting both a between and within-subject design, we provided half of the participants with information about past extreme macroeconomic events in Europe. Our findings indicate that European households have high expectations of future tail macroeconomic events shaped by personal experiences, and that the causal effect of information provision on expectations varies greatly depending on the country and the type of risk. We then find suggestive evidence that expectations of extreme macroeconomic disasters are causally transmitted to personal expectations about one's future standard of living. However, small variations in expectations of extreme macroeconomic risk do not appear to have a systematic independent impact on planned saving, portfolio, and borrowing decisions
