This article looks at strange graffitis covering the walls of Libreville (Gabon). Their scriptor, André Ondo Mba, is an excentric, self-prophet prophet that purports to accomplish divine creation through his public scripts. His graffitis shows, in excessive form, an ideology of writing, the origin of which is to be sought in the colonial situation, particularly in the two pivots of colonial power, mission and administration. Located at the crossroads of the official document and the Holy Ecripts, the Ondo Mba graffitis also have a strong challenge: they challenge the authorities in place. The whole question is then whether Ondo Mba manages to make its message heard. The article is thus concerned with the reception of graffitis. However extravagant it may be, Ondo Mba's personal mythology uses an imaginary, including politico-religious imagination, which in reality finds many echoes in contemporary Gabonese society. ; International audience ; This article looks at strange graffitis covering the walls of Libreville (Gabon).

International audience ; Il dibattito è vivo tra gli interpreti del pensiero politico foscoliano. Precursore del fascismo e dello stato-potenza per gli uni, democratico e rivoluzionario per gli altri, Foscolo sembra difendere tesi contraddittorie intorno alla Rivoluzione francese e alle sue ideologie principali. Un esame attento dei testi mostra tuttavia come Foscolo sia passato da giovanili posizioni democratiche e rousseauiane, a un atteggiamento di sdegno morale contro le ingiustizie che reggono il mondo, a una forma di «realismo» o pragmatismo politico in cui le influenze di Machiavelli, di Vico e di Montesquieu confluiscono in una concezione originale della storia, della prassi politica e del ruolo sociale dello scrittore. ; Le débat est vif parmi les interprètes de la pensée politique de Foscolo. Précurseur du fascisme et de l'État-puissance pour les uns, démocrate et révolutionnaire pour les autres, Foscolo semble défendre des thèses contradictoires sur la Révolution française et ses idéologies principales. Un examen attentif des textes montre néanmoins que Foscolo est passé des positions démocratiques et rousseauistes de sa jeunesse à une attitude de protestation indignée contre les injustices qui gouvernent le monde, pour aboutir à une forme de « réalisme » ou de pragmatisme politique où les influences de Machiavel, de Vico et de Montesquieu conduisent à une conception originale de l'histoire, de la praxis et du rôle de l'écrivain dans la société.

A theoretical posture at the interface of political sociology and urban sociology is used to analyse the collective actions of urban refugees in Central Africa, focusing on the work of framing and adjusting mobilisations to the overall humanitarian environment in which they seek to integrate. In a context marked by a political decline at State level of the issue of assistance to refugees and the emergence of the international human rights regime as a central normative production framework in the host countries of Central Africa, it is then necessary to identify the conditions for the emergence of 'collective cosmopolitics' of refugees and their ability to call into question the relationship between human rights and citizens' rights in urban areas where the boundaries between international and internal order have never been so porous and undefined. ; International audience From a theoretical vantage point at the interface between political and urban sociology, this study analyzes collective action by urban refugees in Central Africa, focusing on efforts to adjust and adapt collective action to the global humanitarian environment in which it seeks to be embedded. In a context marked by political withdrawal at State level from refugee assistance issues and by the emergence of an international human rights regime as the principal normative framework in Central African host countries, we seek to identify the preconditions for the growth of "cosmopolitical collectives" of refugees. Further, we point up their propensity to call into question the relationship between human rights and the rights of citizens in urban areas where the boundaries between the international and domestic order have never before been as porous and undefined. ; A theoretical posture at the interface of political sociology and urban sociology is used to analyse the collective actions of urban refugees in Central Africa, focusing on the work of framing and adjusting mobilisations to the overall humanitarian environment in which they seek to ...
