International audience ; Since the landing in South Africa of Europeans in 1652, the country has based the relationship of the different groups that live on its soil on the notion of "race". It is in 1685 that the Dutch East India Company forbade mixed marriages in its station in the Cape. All along their history, miscegenation has been a worry for White people in South African, whether they be Dutch or British settlers. It has thus induced the different White governments to segregate the various groups under its authority, Africans, Coloureds or "Asians". This article aims at examining the mechanisms that led to the discrimination policies that have anticipated the Apartheid regime. The objective will be both to understand le political and economic issues at stake, but also the ideological one which led the leaders of a minority group, the Whites, to try to define the notion of "race" in order to justify their project. ; Depuis l'arrivée des Blancs en 1652, l'Afrique du Sud a été un pays où la notion de « race » a été prépondérante pour définir les relations entre les divers groupes qui la composent. C'est en 1685 que la Compagnie néerlandaise des Indes orientales a interdit les mariages mixtes au Cap de Bonne Espérance. Tout au long de son histoire, cette inquiétude a renforcé la volonté des divers gouvernements, qu'ils soient néerlandophones ou anglophones, de ségréger les composantes africaines, métis ou asiatiques de cette société coloniale. Cet article se propose d'examiner les mécanismes qui ont conduit à l'élaboration d'une politique discriminatoire dans les années qui ont précédé la mise en place de l'apartheid. Il s'agira de comprendre les enjeux politiques et économiques, mais également idéologiques, qui ont conduit les dirigeants d'un groupe minoritaire, les Blancs, à essayer de définir la notion de « race » afin de justifier son projet.

introduction du dossier Histories of Space, Spaces of History dirigé par Matthew GRAVES et Gilles TEULIÉ ; International audience ; This issue of E-rea examines the temporalities of space and the spatialities of time in the area of colonial and postcolonial Commonwealth Studies viewed through the prism of the Geohumanities, with an emphasis on historiographies that transcend the national or underpass it at the infra-state scale of relations, while overflowing conventional timelines and adopting perspectives that lengthen focus and broaden analytical scope, connecting social and cultural trajectories across disciplinary boundaries. The authors draw upon the methodologies of colonial and postcolonial history, geohistory and geopolitics, memory studies, commemorative politics, geopoetics and literary mapping, media studies and the digital humanities.
