Nombreux sont les observateurs qui se sont montrés dubitatifs sur la capacité des mouvements tels que les Indignés à « trouver un débouché politique », mettant en doute leur efficacité, au regard des revendications affichées sur un mode déclaratif. Et si c'étaient les cadres interprétatifs mobilisés qui ne permettaient pas de saisir le mode d'action propre à ces groupes ? Jérôme Ferret, sociologue du politique, nous livre son parcours personnel, d'une posture dubitative, « classique » ou en tout cas assez commune, à une remise en cause, un effort conceptuel réhabilitant « l'agir minoritaire ».

Up to now the municipal police in France have been virtually ignored by social science researchers. The present research starts by underlining their unique characteristics, noting that they are private municipal police, nor a form of national police which has been localised. It describes their development during the 1980's during a time of transformation of centre/periphery relations in relation to security and policing. The interventionism of the mayors of the biggest towns in relation to security was notable during this period, but, more importantly, study of the successive reorganisation of police forces and associated legislation and practices allows the conclusion that there has been a gradual evolution towards joint creation of local policies on crime prevention and security during a period of preceptions of crisis in the policing of urban areas. In relation to the implementation of local policies, the municipal police were first seen as illegitimate, but then became seen as legitimated through practice, both by the simultaneous internal bureaucratisation and increased professionalisation controlled by the state.

The Spanish director's oeuvre offers a unique vision of the various forms of violence at work in contemporary Spanish society. This study aims to encourage social scientists to reflect on their own practice and identify potential blind spots in their work. More broadly, the young Spanish director's output can be viewed as the product of a particular socialization (both familial and academic) and his belonging to a generation uninhibited by the codes of classic Spanish politics. In this sense, his is a "post 15-M1 cinema," part of a "second transition." These are the factors that must inform a sociological interpretation of three of his most representative works, and the reading of the interview that follows.
