Décloisonner la sociologie de l’engagement militant. Note critique sur quelques tendances récentes des travaux français
Open accessAbstract
Cet article présente un état des lieux critique d’un champ de recherche particulièrement actif depuis 20 ans en France, celui de la sociologie de l’engagement militant. Il revient sur le renouvellement de ce courant sociologique, qui s’est traduit par l’avènement du paradigme interactionniste, attentif à la dimension processuelle de l’engagement et des carrières militantes, et sur la façon dont la notion de rétributions du militantisme a été affinée et revisitée. Après avoir mis en perspective les débats théoriques relatifs à l’apparition, ou non, de « nouvelles formes » de militantisme, voire de « nouveaux militants », l’article souligne deux défis de la recherche aujourd’hui, tous deux relatifs à la question de la division sociale du travail : mieux prendre en compte, d’une part, le lien entre transformations macrosociales et engagement et, d’autre part, le façonnage organisationnel du militantisme. This critique reviews an especially active field of research during the last 20 years in France: the sociology of activism. In this current of sociology, a new interactionist paradigm has emerged that takes into account activists’ careers and the process of becoming an activist. This critique focuses on how the idea of the “rewards” of activism has been reworked. After reviewing theoretical debates about whether or not new forms of activism and new activists are arising, this article points out two issues for current research, both related to the social division of labor, namely: improving our understanding of, on the one hand, the linkage between macrosocial changes and activism and, on the other hand, of the way that organizations shape activism.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
