PSYCHOANALYSIS
Paul DENIS
OF EXALTATION Exaltation is an affect that has rarely been studied by psychoanalysts. Yet exaltation appears in a number of situations, religious or sectarian of course, but also in crowd phenomena whether in sports stadiums, at concerts, street demonstrations or political meetings.

Michel SCHNEIDER

Dominique PICARD, Edmond MARC
PALO ALTO’S SCHOOL This book presents the emergence, the history and the influence of Palo Alto Schools, explaining the principal contributions they have made. It demonstrates that the great force of this thinking, both systemic and pragmatic, has been to reconcile global and theoretical demands with those of concrete action, which are necessarily specific.
Publication date: 17.04.2013 • "Que sais-je ?" series • 978-2-13-060662-8 • 128 p. • 9 €
HISTORY
Patrick BOUCHERON, Nicolas DELALANDE
FOR A WORLD-HISTORY In the era of globalization, how can we write history that remains open to the world, to human communication, circulation and encounter? The challenge is to retrace the contacts, the friction and the incomprehension that have ensued, from the Middle Ages to our times, when different parts of the world come into contact.
Publication date: 10.04.2013 • "laviedesidées.fr" series • 978-2-13-062065-5 • 104 p. • 8,50 €
ECONOMY
Luc CHOMARAT
ADVERTISING Advertising is the product of a culture, which it mirrors, reflecting standards, values and beliefs. This book describes the mechanisms of action, the techniques deployed and how advertising agencies operate.
Publication date: 03.04.2013 • "Que sais-je ?" series • 978-2-13-060734-2 • 128 p. • 9 €
POLITICAL SCIENCE
Bouchra RAHMOUNI BENHIDA, Younes SLAOUI
THE GEOPOLITICS OF THE MEDITERRANEAN From conflict risk to economic perspectives, not forgetting lifestyles, this book provides the keys to analyse the situation of the Mediterranean Basin. It shows how the Mediterranean remains the vehicle of both a common idea and the fear of others.
Publication date: 03.04.2013 • "Que sais-je ?" series • 978-2-13-061748-8 • 128 p. • 9 €
LITERATURE
Bruno VIARD
MICHEL HOUELLEBECQ’S TREASURE CHEST Houellebecq’s work is brimming with apparent contradictions. This short essay analyses them in order to show that they can be resolved, especially if we study their sources: Houellebecq’s reading, a ‘treasure chest’ that contains both works of fiction and theoretical writings.
Publication date: 03.04.2013 • 978-2-13-062052-5 • 168 p. • 15 €
