Menace de dissolution de l'Assemblée nationale : quand le Président concurrence le Parlement

(Tiempo de lectura: 4 - 8 minutos)

Alors que les députés viennent de faire leur rentrée le lundi 3 octobre, une menace pèse sur l’Assemblée nationale, celle de la dissolution. Le président de la République a brandi cette arme dissuasive en cas de vote d’une motion de censure du Parlement. Depuis, les nombreuses passes d’armes renvoient dos à dos le déni de démocratie auquel se livre Emmanuel Macron en l’absence de majorité absolue et l’incapacité de l’Assemblée nationale à trouver un large consensus.

Woman King is worth watching: but be aware that its take on history is problematic

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 6 minutos)

The Hollywood movie The Woman King, released in mid-September, became an immediate box-office success. The triumphs of the Agoodjies, the women warriors of the ancient Kingdom of Dahomey in today’s Benin, west Africa, are as magnificent as the public had anticipated. In this epic historical drama, African women take centre stage.

Has Vladimir Putin been outflanked by the Russian far right?

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 6 minutos)

Ever since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24 this year, the Kremlin has sought by every means to minimise the reality of war. The description of the invasion as a “special operation” and persecution of anyone who dared call it by any other name is intended to underline the supposedly temporary and limited nature of the armed conflict. It seeks to blur the boundary between war and peace. This principle continued in Vladimir Putin’s speech on September 21, in which he announced a “partial mobilisation”.

Le nouveau film d'Audrey Diwan remet dans la lumière ce moment terrible, et tabou, entre grossesse non désirée et avortement illégal dans les années 1960 (Anne, jouée par Anamaria Vartolomei). L'Événement/Audrey Diwan/ Wild Bunch / Allociné, CC BY-SA

« L’Événement » d’Annie Ernaux, une œuvre phare pour penser l’histoire de l’avortement

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 6 minutos)

Le film L’Événement (2021) d’Audrey Diwan est bien plus qu’une adaptation du livre éponyme d’Annie Ernaux (2000), qui vient de recevoir le prix Nobel de littérature. C’est à la fois une expérience corporelle, celle d’un corps à corps entre le public et la jeune protagoniste qui doit choisir entre interrompre sa grossesse ou ses études, et une invitation à penser notre présent à la lueur du passé.

Tracey Rose, renegade South African artist: understanding her 30 years of outrage

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 6 minutos)

When an artist is welcomed into the monumental interiors of a structure such as the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa for a retrospective of their work, it suggests the levels of recognition they enjoy. The gallery, crafted from old dockyard silos in Cape Town, South Africa, opened in 2017. It is built to have such a pedigree; a solid foundation for African artists to gain global visibility and scrutiny.

The people of Masafer Yatta are determined to hold on to their cave-dwelling lifestyle. “I was born in this cave and gave birth to all 12 of my children here,” says Hajja Halima Abu Younis, an 82-year-old woman from Jinba, one of 33 villages in this semi-desert region at the southern tip of the occupied West Bank.

Burundi’s Gatumba massacre offers a window into the past and future of the DRC conflict

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 6 minutos)

Millions of people have been killed and an estimated 5.6 million others displaced by civil wars, local feuds and cross-border conflicts. The neighbouring countries of Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda have been locked into this ongoing cycle, too.
