Abstract:

Most work on post-2003 Iraq has focused, from a political science perspective, on the nature and role of the state, the American invasion and foreign military interventions, and the discourse of actors in power. This has fueled analysis in terms of fragmentation and sectarian divisions, categories that this body of literature has participated in constructing.,Following recent studies on the social dynamics of daily life in the context of conflict and insecurity (Das 2006, Beck 2012), the objective of the present panel is to bring together researchers whose work, resulting from long-term investigations in the field, propose bottom-up approaches, thereby detaching themselves from the context to better understand the situation in which the Iraqis act. 
Communications will address different aspects of what would make up the ordinary life of the inhabitants, paying particular attention to experiences, subjectivities and affects. This methodological and theoretical bias will allow us to question the practices, capacities and logics of action of individuals, while reinvesting common themes in political science with through that which is familiar, close, and intimate.
