This podcast is performed byHéctor Sánchez Margalef. Raval is a multicultural quarter in the center of Barcelona and CIDOB has a porject about integration and development in this area. Who represents those who are not allowed to vote? The Raval Project was born out of the realisation that a lot of public attention in the aftermath of the 2014 European elections was devoted to European citizens who chose not to vote. Fewer spoke of those who were unable to vote. This project decided to focus on those who could not participate in these elections even if they wanted to, i.e. third country nationals living in the EU.

    Le ciblage est un point de focalisation de l’impact social des programmes de lutte contre la pauvreté et des aides monétaires de l’Etat aux catégories sociales pauvres et vulnérables. La pratique du ciblage n’est pas récente dans la trajectoire des politiques publiques. Elle donne lieu à des controverses sur les méthodes appropriées pour atteindre les populations cibles ou les territoires prioritaires des politiques et programmes sociaux. Les difficultés du ciblage sont devenues le ...

    We are living through unprecedented times. The COVID-19 pandemic threatens not only our health, but the very foundation of life itself: our food security. Now more than ever, we are forced to rethink our food security as we witness the widespread dislocations to our food system, forcing millions to beg for food for the first time. During normal times, our world produces enough nutritious food for all but millions still go hungry every day. Why does this happen and what can be done t ...

    In times of shadow and despair, populists and authoritarians move in to undermine free speech and democracy. For authoritarian-minded leaders, wrote Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch, writing in the New York Review of Books, “the coronavirus crisis is offering a convenient pretext to silence critics and consolidate power. Censorship in China and elsewhere has fed the pandemic, helping to turn a potentially containable threat into a global calamity. The health cr ...

    She is just seventeen. An African-American high-school student. If Darnella Frazier had not turned on her cellphone on May 25, when she witnessed four police officers arresting a black man in Minneapolis, the world would never have known how George Floyd died that day, or why. A convenience store employee had called the police, accusing Mr Floyd of buying cigarettes with a fake $20 bill. Possibly Mr Floyd resisted arrest, which did not result in a “medical incident” as the police in ...

    Ce travail vient explorer une nouvelle piste qui pourrait contribuer à une levée de confinement efficace. Il s’agit d’un phénomène que l’on appelle « effet coupe du monde ». Nous définissons, d’abord, ce phénomène, montrons son existence et son éventuel effet amplificateur au regard de la progression de la pandémie, en termes du nombre de cas infectés au pic et la durée encourue avant son atteinte. Partant de scénarios hypothétiques, en ce qui concerne les conditions initiales à la ...

    This paper takes a comparative look at Sudan, Morocco, and Algeria, at the rise of Nubian and Amazigh rights groups, and their attempts to redefine national identity. We examine: 1/ how Nubian rights groups have sparked what is being called a Kushite revival in Sudan, and are pushing for a change in educational policy and archaeological practice to engender a new historiography and national narrative; 2/ how Amazigh movements in Morocco and Algeria are similarly trying to expand con ...

    فرضت جائحة فيروس كورونا المستجد سلوكات جديدة على عادات الناس سواء في المغرب أو على الصعيد العالمي، وذلك حماية للنفس وللآخرين من انتقال العدوى. ومنذ بداية انتشار هذا الوباء، تعبأت السلطات العمومية من أجل فرض ومراقبة وتأطير هذه السلوكات قصد إنجاح عملية الحجر الصحي، أي البقاء في البيوت وعدم مغادرتها إلا للضرورة القصوى ووفق شروط محددة.  وهكذا أغلقت مؤسسات التكوين وأماكن العبادات ووحدات الإنتاج والمقاهي والمطاعم ومؤسسات الترفيه، ووضعت ضوابط لفتح الأسواق الأسبوعية ومؤسسات التجارة الغذائي ...

    They live in the shadow of death: the United States has 2,650 death-row inmates, 740 in California’s San Quentin State Prison alone. Today, these prisoners fear another executioner, the invisible COVID-19. The condemned on death row live in single cells, some having spent many decades in solitary confinement. The suicide rate is high, and many die of natural causes before their rendezvous with the special execution team. These prisoners hardly ever receive visitors, and for them th ...
