L’ambition de ce numéro spécial paru en 1999 visait à présenter quelques travaux et productions scientifiques portant à la fois sur les trajectoires historiques de la paysannerie, et plus largement celles du monde rural, ainsi que les changements affectant les campagnes algériennes au cours des années 1990.

For several decades now, scholars have taken an interest in analyzing the socialist attempt to transform traditional gender arrangements and revolutionize the family.

Organisé à l’initiative de militants de la santé au travail et de chercheurs en sciences humaines et sociales, ce colloque se fonde sur le constat du développement de pathologies d’origine industrielle et de leur sous-estimation dans les statistiques existantes.
