Participates in 1 Session

Je suis actuellement en deuxième année de thèse en géographie au sein de l'équipe EMAM du laboratoire CITERES (UMR 7314) de l'université François Rabelais de Tours. Mon sujet de thèse porte sur la production et la reconfiguration des lieux de mémoire(s) en situation conflictuelle au Liban-Sud. J'analyse des processus de construction de lieux de mémoire et les enjeux politiques et sociaux qui leur sont attribués en situation conflictuelle, à savoir en situation de destructions et de reconstructions chroniques. A travers les exemples du château de Beaufort et de l'ancienne prison de Khiam, je tente de saisir en quoi la période d'occupation qu'a connue la région du Liban-Sud, ainsi que les conflits qui l'ont suivie ont reconfiguré les processus de spatialisation des mémoires de la région autour du conflit, qui est ici pensé comme producteur d'espaces. Durant mes études à l'Institut d'études politiques de Lyon (spécialisation Monde Arabe Contemporain et Master gestion de projets culturels à l'international), j'ai étudié la patrimonialisation sur un territoire en transformations urbaine et sociale (à Damas, mémoire M1), ainsi que la mobilisation de l'élément patrimonial dans l'aménagement urbain par les acteurs institutionnels et associatifs (Au Caire, mémoire M2). Publications: Mettre en scène une mémoire sélective: la prison faite musée à Khiam au Liban-Sud», dans Explorer le temps au Liban, sous la dir. de S.Chiffoleau, E. Dannaoui, A. Madoeuf et S. Slim, Beyrouth, Université de Balamand, Presses de l’IFPO, printemps 2016 (à paraître). « Mémoire collective et espace précarisé: l’exemple du quartier de Sarouja à Damas», dans, K.
