An approach to the phenomenon of nomadization among the cattle-breeders of Mongolia. How often and in which way do they move today ? What is left of these traditions in an urban environment ? Do they travel from one encampment to the other for economical, ecological or political reasons, or is this feature one of the main elements of their culture ?

It seems that religious traditions unanimously admit that there is no paradise here below. The beautiful, orderly, harmonious dream world of Amerindians is always feasible, possible but never achieved ; this dream world must be elsewhere . Creation, life, are based on a rupture (considered like a sin) between man and the Creator and on discrimination between creatures. For so-called revealed religions, rupture, banishment and difference establish and/or legitimize a relationship of power between man and the world. The religions of natural societies develop a philosophy, an ethnic of reconciliation of the human being with the rest of creation. Thus, knowledge may be attained by dreams, shamanism and death

From one shore of the Mediterranean to the other, there persists a suspicion against harkis. In Algeria, these former back-up troops of the French army are considered as traitors. In France, since 1954, public opinion has identified them with quislings. Conversely those who are concerned, as well as many of their children, often feel like victims. For the last thirty-five years, these harkis have had a singular destiny : they are exiled among the North-African immigrants : they are exiles in exile

Nathan Katz (1892- 1981) was the author of two works for the theatre : a marvellous tale entitled D'Ardwibele (1924), and a drama, Annele Balthasar (1930). They are both in the idiom of the Sundgau, an isolated area in southern Alsace, and set in a village where religious consensus reigns. In the background of this ideal image there appears a nightmare vision. The Sundgau was infamous for the execution of witches. The village community torments one of its members, whose values differ from those of the majority, to a point where he loses both reason and life. The village then admits the victim's innocence, and harmony restored until the next explosion of hatred. Both of Nathan Katz's works include a charitable, non-violent hero, the bearer of a messianic hope which can be heard in the echo that resounds at night in the gardens of his restricted fatherland. The themes evoked by Nathan Katz, such as the persecution of innocent victims, the foul smell of burning flesh, the survivors' endless mourning, are reinterpreted by the A. of this article in terms of the persecutions inflicted by the Nazis

In order to apprehend the effect of an exile, which lasted for more than half century, on the vocation of Norbert Elias (Breslau- 1897-Amsterdam 1990) and on his work, we should analyze the sharp tear caused by nazism, and the ambiguous relation between the sociologist and Germany. Afterwards, we shall have to study the themes and interpretative modalities which are partly caused by a wandering life, brutally imposed on him, and which became the hallmark of this existence

The ideology of the straight line, the myth of transparency and the boom of capitalism have considerably modified the reality of travel, migration and exile. Nomads in particular have increasingly been hampered in their wanderings by the linear and authoritative nature of borders. As a result, spaces can seem closed, the planet grided and delimited, and the undefined zones on the map which were once invitations to travel, now seem to implode under the weight of a growing population. This article proposes to reconstitute the nature of travel in the spaces of a world which we could have dismissed as enclosed , a world contracted and narrowed by networks of communication. On the contrary, any sociological analysis of the advent of a nomadic and communicational tribalism must comprehend a reality which appears to be open, versatile and in expansion

Evoking the way of life of a gypsy population means studying why their mobility is in a way like a form of exile. The gypsy, in his ambiguous position, has an effect on the imagination of people : he both the predator and the victim. These gypsies have always been trying to find their bearings by specific trades and intense religious practices. We must try to reconsider the place of the gypsy in cultural, social, historical and geographical spaces to perceive how their mobility can embody dreams and arouse anguish
