Elle se penche sur trois aspects : les difficultés méthodologiques inhérentes à l’enquête par questionnaire dans les mouvements sociaux, les caractéristiques sociodémographiques des participants et, enfin, leur rapport au politique et leurs revendications. Les Gilets jaunes ont mobilisé certaines fractions des classes populaires et moyennes. C’est aussi un mouvement social dans lequel se retrouvent à la fois des primo-mobilisés et des individus aux ressources militantes certaines. Nous montrons l’existence de différences de profils sociaux et politiques selon le lieu et le moment de l’implication des enquêtés.

Burundi, through the analysis of the individuals’ political mobilisation (both civilian
and former combatants) and the dynamics of three party politics (Frodebu, Cndd-
Fdd and Palipehutu-Fnl) in the aftermath of war. My purpose is to capture the
viewpoint of individuals as party members, questioning how they get involved in
politics, as well as to analyse how their partisan membership affects the political
culture, the internal structure and the organisation of political parties. The
article argues that mass violence (in 1972 and 1993) has engendered a political
mobilisation process by drawing people into political life, encouraging the
emergence of bottom-up democratic claims. The three political parties involved
in this research have a different history, nature, development and position in the
political chessboard which influenced the relationship between the leadership
and the base, as well as their political attitudes.

Il se penche en particulier sur le processus d’ethnicisation et de « désethnicisation » qui caractérise sa trajectoire afin de montrer comment la perception de la question ethnique et son usage politique changent en fonction du contexte sociopolitique. Il vise également à faire ressortir les facteurs-clés de l’engagement politique que recouvre le recours au discours ethnique. Pour ce faire, l’article ne se limite pas au moment où s’exerce la violence, il met aussi en évidence les actions politiques qui précèdent et suivent la confrontation armée, évitant ainsi tout déterminisme dans l’analyse des liens entre ethnicité et mobilisation politique.
The Palipehutu FNL in Burundi. Insights in the process of ethnicization and de-ethnicization
This article examines the modes of political mobilization that have been adopted by the Palipehutu-FNL, a politico-military organization, from its clandestine origins in 1980 to its recognition as political party in 2009. It focusses on the processes of ethnicization/de-ethnicization which characterize its political trajectory, going beyond the violent stages of its existence and giving priority to the political actions taking place before and after episodes of violence. The article demonstrates how the perception of the issue of ethnicity, as well as its political use, evolve over time, as the socio-political context changes, thus showing that there is no determinism in the search for the key determinants of political involvement, between ethnicity and its political use.

Usually both are based on the idea of a split between the state of war and that of peace, and often disqualify the use of violence as a range of political actions and underpin a clear distinction between an armed movement and a political party. Our analysis of the “reconversion” of the Palipehutu-FNL in Burundi should make clear that having recourse to arms does not necessarily indicate the continued existence of a culture of war. The use of military force can be legitimized as a form of political action and does not exclude non-violent political action. In fact, changes in the socio-political context can differentiate in time the recourse to force and influence the evolution of a politico-military movement.

Per far ciò è necessario anzitutto un breve riferimento all’evoluzione della questione fondiaria nelle diverse fasi della storia socio-politica del paese, nonché al modo in cui la problematica dell’accesso alla terra è stata affrontata nel processo di ricostruzione “post-conflitto”.5 Successivamente metteremo in evidenza i diversi attori in gioco, concentrandoci in particolare sull’operato della CNTB. Infine analizzeremo le dinamiche politiche che sostengono e nutrono la problematica dell’accesso alla terra.

Ce travail souhaite remettre a l’honneur l’etude des formations partisanes, et analyse l’articulation entre mobilisation partisane, mobilisation armee et revendications ethniques au Burundi. Il montre que l’ethnicite et la violence ne sont pas des caracteristiques intrinseques des realites socio-politiques burundaises, mais font partie du processus de formation du pluralisme. En adoptant une approche antagoniste du politique, qui remet en question les theories liberales, cette these analyse la formation du multipartisme comme un processus conflictuel de differenciation politique dont l’ethnicite represente une forme d’expression qui est contingente. Par consequent, en fonction des configurations du pouvoi...
