"Dramatic Conflict" explores contemporary changes in the conditions of production of Chinese drama by focusing on the relation between state and market orientations at the core of the creative practice of state drama troupes. The article does so through utilizing the work of Bourdieu on fields of cultural production. The data are derived from fieldwork with state drama troupes on tour in the countryside in Fujian province in 1993 and 1994. Attention is given to the political economy of the organization of state drama troupes and their commercialized conditions of performance for rural communities, and also to the repertoire and ritual aspects of rural performance. The article argues that grounded state power remains central to the practice of dramatic production in China, but operates through market relations inserted into the heart of cultural production by state cultural policy.

Cet article présente une description et une analyse des quinze statuettes paléolithiques de la collection Grimaldi. Dans la première partie de leur article, les auteurs évaluent les différentes hypothèses qui ont été proposées pour expliquer la signification des figurines féminines du Paléolithique. Dans la seconde partie de leur texte, ils s’attachent à trouver une explication qui prendrait en compte le contexte culturel de fabrication, d’utilisation et de disposition de ces figurines. À la lumière d’analogies ethnographiques, les auteurs suggèrent que les statuettes ont peut-être été utilisées individuellement par des femmes pour s’assurer de la bonne marche de leur grossesse et pour permettre que la naissance de leur enfant se passe bien.
