Winning War Through Law in Afghanistan? Interview with Adam Baczko
No full textcontribution à un site webAdam Baczko is the author of a book entitled La guerre par le droit. Les tribunaux Taliban en Afghanistan ( War by Law. Taliban Courts in Afghanistan) published on 2 September by CNRS Editions within the series called “Logiques du désordre” he coedits with Adèle Blazquez, Martin Lamotte and Gilles Dorronsoro. Published three weeks after the Taliban took power in Afghanistan, this sadly very timely comparative study of the parallel legal system put in place by the Taliban for decades is likely to help us better understand more broadly the role of Law in war. Adam Baczko answers our questions on this issue and on his long-term research. Interview by Miriam Périer, CERI

ADAM SMITH'S OPTIMISTIC TELEOLOGICAL VIEW OF HISTORY
No full textAdam Smith's four-stage theory provides the framework for his writings on history. The fourth stage is the commercial epoch; the culmination of history in this stage is a key component in the conventional interpretation of Adam Smith as a prophet of commercialism. In two historical case studies Smith shows the capacity of commercial society to regenerate itself. This potent capacity suggests that commercial society is inevitable. At a certain point in time it also overcomes the major obstacles to its permanence. Smith's philosophy of history anticipates the end of history views of Kant and Hegel.Political Economy,
The Ethical, Epistemological, and Conceptual Need to Resume Fieldwork
No full textcontribution à un site webFor the “Covid-19 and the Social Sciences” series, Adam Baczko and Gilles Dorronsoro argue for the necessity of resuming fieldwork. They trace how subcontracting research or shifting to methodologies which are remote in time and space—solutions often touted in the pandemic age—in fact produce unreliable, exploitative, and undertheorized work incapable of accurately analyzing dynamic conditions on the ground. These transformations relate to broader research trends toward neoliberal privatization, and the authors outline how they can be resisted by returning, carefully, to the field
