Over the past decade, thanks to the emergence of the process of democratization, the Group of Studies and Research on State and Societies in Niger (GERES) has endeavored to identify possible social transformation in Niger. The formation of the state and the construction of democracy, as well as the military's relations with politics, constituted the dominant research themes. In this book, GERES addresses the issue of intellectuals in Niger in their relationship to the state, politics and society. This research complements the series of works published by GERES and fits perfectly into a vast and coherent program whose general objective is to study the actors and the strengths of the political and social history of contemporary Niger. It is a comparative approach, from a historical and sociological perspective, going from the pre-colonial period to the advent of democracy.Depuis une dizaine d’années, à la faveur de l’émergence du processus de démocratisation, le Groupe d’études et de recherche sur État et sociétés au Niger (GERES) s’est attaché à cerner les éventuels possibles d’une transformation sociale au Niger. La formation de l’État et la construction de la démocratie ainsi que les rapports de l’armée avec la politique ont constitué les thèmes de recherche dominants. Le GERES aborde dans le présent ouvrage la question des intellectuels au Niger dans leur rapport à l’État, au politique et à la société. Pour la première fois dans l’histoire de ce pays, on disposera d’une réflexion des intellectuels nigériens sur les intellectuels nigériens. Cette recherche vient compléter la série de travaux publiés par le GERES et s’intègre parfaitement dans un vaste programme cohérent dont l’objectif général est d’étudier les acteurs et les lignes de force de l’histoire politique et sociale du Niger contemporain.Il s’agit d’une approche comparative, dans une perspective historique et sociologique allant de l’époque précoloniale jusqu’à l’avènement de la démocratie. La perspective historique permet de cerner le plus étroitement possible sur la longue durée les phénomènes de continuité et de rupture entre les différents âges historiques (précolonial, colonial et postcolonial) dans les perceptions que l’on a de l’intellectuel, de son rôle dans la société, de ses relations complexes et parfois ambiguës avec le pouvoir politique, de ses rapports à l’État et à la société. Cette référence aux héritages et filiations est essentielle pour démêler les influences multiples, les recompositions et les transformations survenues au sein du paysage intellectuel nigérien. Au plan sociologique, l’ouvrage expose des éléments d’une sociologie des intellectuels au Niger : histoires de vie (trajectoires individuelles) et histoire intellectuelle (variabilité des logiques) de quelques figures emblématiques.

  • Armee et politique au Niger
    Kimba Idrissa
    Niger’s political history has lacked a synthesis on the army’s involvement in politics since independence. The country is a fertile ground for such analysis. Between 1964 and 1999, the country witnessed three successful military coups during the democratisation process (April 1974, January 1996, and April 1999) and at least four military coup attempts (1964, 1975, 1976, 1983). ...
