Appel \u00e0 communications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les propositions de communication sont \u00e0 adresser \u00e0 Christian Renoux (Universit\u00e9 d\u2019Orl\u00e9ans-POLEN) avant le 31 d\u00e9cembre 2022 <\/em>: christian.renoux [at] univ-orleans.fr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En 1923, un groupe d\u2019\u00e9tudiants de la Facult\u00e9 de th\u00e9ologie protestante de Paris invite Oliver Dryer, secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l\u2019International Fellowship of Reconciliation <\/em>(IFOR), \u00e0 venir leur pr\u00e9senter ce nouveau mouvement n\u00e9 en 1914 et organis\u00e9 en 1919. De cette rencontre na\u00eet la branche fran\u00e7aise du Mouvement international de la R\u00e9conciliation (MIR).<\/p>\n

\u00c0 l\u2019occasion de ce centenaire, un colloque historique est organis\u00e9 \u00e0 Paris les 9 et 10 juin 2023 avec pour ambition de faire le point sur l\u2019histoire de ce mouvement pacifiste chr\u00e9tien et non-violent marqu\u00e9 par un refus radical de la guerre et tout ce qui la pr\u00e9pare.<\/p>\n

Le Mouvement a donn\u00e9 lieu \u00e0 des travaux s\u2019inscrivant dans l\u2019histoire du pacifisme. Les publications de biographies ou d\u2019\u00e9crits autobiographiques ceux de Jacques Martin, premier r\u00e9daction des Cahiers<\/em> et Juste parmi les nations, ou d\u2019Andr\u00e9 et Magda Trocm\u00e9, fondateurs du Coll\u00e8ge c\u00e9venol, au Chambon-sur-Lignon, responsables du MIR et Justes parmi les nations, ont aussi donn\u00e9 l\u2019occasion de nouveaux \u00e9clairages. Cependant des pans entiers de son histoire restent \u00e0 explorer.<\/p>\n

La naissance du Mouvement en France s\u2019enracine dans le souvenir tragique de la Premi\u00e8re guerre mondiale et le questionnement de ses premiers membres \u2013 dont les pasteurs Henri Roser, Andr\u00e9 Trocm\u00e9 ou Jacques Martin \u2013 sur leur engagement en faveur de la paix et de la r\u00e9conciliation en Europe, sur fonds de r\u00e9armement et de mont\u00e9e des p\u00e9rils.<\/p>\n

Le Mouvement fut rapidement influenc\u00e9 par la rencontre avec Gandhi et la d\u00e9couverte de son engagement non-violent, \u00e0 travers les liens nou\u00e9s tant par l\u2019Internationale (via Muriel Lester, Charles Andrews ou Jane Addams) qu\u2019en France lors de la conf\u00e9rence du Mahatma \u00e0 Paris en 1931. Lors du congr\u00e8s d\u2019IFOR \u00e0 Lyon en 1929, le Mouvement avait d\u2019ailleurs repris le terme de non-violence pour d\u00e9finir son action.<\/p>\n

On envisagera la p\u00e9riode de la fondation du Mouvement et le milieu qui l\u2019a port\u00e9, son combat en faveur de l\u2019objection de conscience (s\u00e9ries de proc\u00e8s d\u2019objecteurs), son travail pour la r\u00e9conciliation dans l\u2019Europe de l\u2019entre-deux-guerres, son positionnement clair contre le fascisme, le nazisme et les Accords de Munich, la r\u00e9sistance civile non-violente de ses membres, en particulier dans le sauvetage des juifs pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale.<\/p>\n

Au sortir de la guerre, le Mouvement dut se reconstruire en gardant son engagement en faveur de l\u2019objection de conscience tout en s\u2019opposant \u00e0 l\u2019armement atomique et aux diff\u00e9rentes guerres coloniales (Madagascar, Indochine, Alg\u00e9rie) et en appuyant les mouvements d\u2019ind\u00e9pendance. La fin des ann\u00e9es 1960 et les ann\u00e9es 1970, sous la conduite de Ren\u00e9 Cruse, qui d\u00e9clencha des tensions avec la g\u00e9n\u00e9ration des fondateurs, furent marqu\u00e9es par des accents plus politiques (candidature de R. Cruse aux \u00e9lections l\u00e9gislatives contre Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand dans la Ni\u00e8vre pour d\u00e9noncer l\u2019armement atomique) et la relance du combat en faveur d\u2019un statut digne pour les objecteurs de conscience (entre la loi de 1963 et celle de 1983). Le MIR s\u2019engage alors dans des actions collectives contre les essais nucl\u00e9aires, pour l\u2019abolition du nucl\u00e9aire civil, contre l\u2019extension du camp militaire du Larzac. Puis, au cours des ann\u00e9es 1980, des liens sont tiss\u00e9s avec les ind\u00e9pendantistes kanaks et polyn\u00e9siens. Dans les ann\u00e9es 1990 et 2000, le MIR s\u2019est de plus engag\u00e9 dans la promotion de l\u2019\u00e9ducation \u00e0 la non-violence au cours de la D\u00e9cennie de l\u2019ONU sur la culture de non-violence et de paix (2001-2010) et \u00e0 travers la Coordination pour l\u2019\u00e9ducation \u00e0 la non-violence et \u00e0 la paix.<\/p>\n

Le MIR participe \u00e0 diff\u00e9rentes \u00e9poques au d\u00e9veloppement d\u2019une th\u00e9ologie \u0153cum\u00e9nique de la non-violence en dialogue avec les diverses instances eccl\u00e9siales \u00e0 diff\u00e9rentes \u00e9poques en France et \u00e0 l\u2019international (ouvrages th\u00e9ologiques de H. Roser, J. Lasserre et A. Trocm\u00e9, rencontres Th\u00e9ologie et non-violence<\/em>, session de travail avec le COE en 1972).<\/p>\n

On s\u2019attachera \u00e9galement \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tude des relations de la branche fran\u00e7aise du MIR avec les autres mouvements pacifistes et non-violents fran\u00e7ais (Quakers, Amis de Gandhi, Arche de Lanza del Vasto, UPF, MAN, NVA, G\u00e9n\u00e9ration m\u00e9diateurs, Non-violence XXI, Coordination pour l\u2019\u00e9ducation \u00e0 la non-violence et \u00e0 la paix) ainsi qu\u2019avec les institutions et les mouvements protestants (Christianisme social, CIMADE).<\/p>\n

L\u2019\u00e9tude de ses relations avec l\u2019Internationale (IFOR) sera aussi un centre d\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat. L\u2019IFOR, quoique longtemps influenc\u00e9 par le monde anglo-saxon, donna toujours une place aux Fran\u00e7ais\u00a0: Henri Roser, Andr\u00e9 Trocm\u00e9, Jean Goss et Hildegard Goss-Mayr, Jean Lasserre, Henriette Tourne particip\u00e8rent \u00e0 ses instances internationales. Le secr\u00e9tariat international eut son si\u00e8ge \u00e0 Paris entre 1935 et 1938. Ambroise Monod et Marie-Pierre Bovy en furent les pr\u00e9sidents.<\/p>\n

La branche fran\u00e7aise entretient des relations \u00e9troites avec les autres branches europ\u00e9ennes. Elle partagea un secr\u00e9tariat avec les branches francophones et H. Roser, J. Lasserre ou R. Cruse eurent des relations privil\u00e9gi\u00e9es avec la branche allemande. Dans les ann\u00e9es 1990, des liens nombreux se sont cr\u00e9\u00e9s avec les groupes non-violents en Afrique francophone (s\u00e9minaires de formation de Jean et Hildegard Goss-Mayr et pr\u00e9sence d\u2019Alfred Bour au Rwanda apr\u00e8s le g\u00e9nocide). Ses relations avec la branche am\u00e9ricaine du MIR influenc\u00e8rent le Mouvement d\u00e8s les ann\u00e9es 1930. En 1945, les r\u00e9flexions de Henri Roser sur son action durant la guerre furent publi\u00e9es \u00e0 New York et Magda et Andr\u00e9 Trocm\u00e9 y firent des tourn\u00e9es de conf\u00e9rence \u00e0 la demande de FOR US. Martin Luther King, Prix Nobel de la paix et membre de la branche du MIR am\u00e9ricain, vint en France en 1966 \u00e0 l\u2019invitation du MIR et d\u2019autres mouvements.<\/p>\n

La revue du Mouvement, Les Cahiers de la R\u00e9conciliation<\/em>, qui para\u00eet d\u00e8s 1926, \u00e0 la fois organe de communication interne et moyen de diffusion des id\u00e9es du Mouvement, permet de suivre l\u2019\u00e9volution des engagements divers de celui-ci.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1923, a group of students from the Faculty of Protestant Theology in Paris invited Oliver Dryer, General Secretary of the International Fellowship of Reconciliation (IFOR), to come and introduce them to this new movement which had been born in 1914 and organized in 1919. The IFOR French branch was born from this meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the occasion of this centenary, an international conference is organized in Paris on 9 and 10 June 2023 with the aim of taking stock of the history of this Christian and non-violent pacifist movement marked by a radical refusal of war and all that prepares it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The birth of the Movement in France is rooted in the tragic memory of the First World War and the questioning of its first members – including pastors Henri Roser, Andr\u00e9 Trocm\u00e9 and Jacques Martin – about their commitment to peace and reconciliation in Europe, against a backdrop of rearmament and rising perils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Movement was quickly influenced by its meeting with Gandhi and its discovery of his non-violent commitment, through the links established both by the International Secretariat (via Muriel Lester, Charles Andrews or Jane Addams) and in France during the Mahatma’s conference in Paris in 1931. During the IFOR congress in Lyon in 1929, the Movement had taken up the term of non-violence to define its action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if the Movement has given rise to works that are part of the history of pacifism, entire sections of its history remain to be elaborated. The publication of biographies or autobiographical writings, such as those of Jacques Martin, the first editor of the Cahiers de la R\u00e9conciliation<\/em> and Righteous Among the Nations, or of Andr\u00e9 and Magda Trocm\u00e9, founders of the Coll\u00e8ge c\u00e9venol in Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, leaders of the MIR and Righteous Among the Nations, have also provided the opportunity to shed new light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Conference will consider the period of the Movement’s foundation and the environment that supported it, its struggle for conscientious objection (series of objectors\u2019 trials), its work in favour of reconciliation in Europe in the interwars period, its clear position against fascism, Nazism, and the Munich Agreements, the non-violent civil resistance of its members, in particular in rescuing Jews during the WW II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the war, the Movement had to rebuild itself by maintaining its commitment to conscientious objection while opposing atomic weapons and the various colonial wars (Madagascar, Indochina, Algeria) and supporting the independence movements. The end of the 1960s and the 1970s, under the leadership of Ren\u00e9 Cruse, who triggered tensions with the founding generation, were marked by more political accents (R. Cruse ran against Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand in the Ni\u00e8vre legislative elections to denounce nuclear weapons) and the revival of the struggle for a dignified status for conscientious objectors (between the 1963 and 1983 laws). The MIR then engaged in collective actions against nuclear testing, for the abolition of civil nuclear power and against the extension of the Larzac military base. Then, during the 1980s, links were forged with the Kanak and Polynesian independence leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MIR participated at different times in the development of an ecumenical theology of non-violence in dialogue with various ecclesial bodies at different times in France and internationally (theological works by H. Roser, J. Lasserre and A. Trocm\u00e9, French annual meeeting on Theology and non-violence, working session with the WCC in 1972).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Conference will also study the relations of the French branch of the MIR with the other French pacifist and non-violent movements (Quakers, Friends of Gandhi, Arche de Lanza del Vasto, UPF, MAN, NVA, Non-violence XXI, G\u00e9n\u00e9ration m\u00e9diateurs) and the Protestant movements (Christianisme social, CIMADE). In the 1990s, the MIR promoted education for non-violence and peace and of the UN Decade for a Culture of Peace and Non-Violence (2001-2010). Its co-initiated the French Coordination for this decade and then for education for non-violence and peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study of relations with the International Secretariat and the other members of the International Fellowship of Reconciliation (IFOR) will also be a focus of interest. IFOR, although long influenced by the Anglo-Saxon world, always gave a place to the French: Henri Roser, Andr\u00e9 Trocm\u00e9, Jean Goss and Hildegard Goss-Mayr, Jean Lasserre, Henriette Tourne participated in its international bodies. The international secretariat was based in Paris between 1935 and 1938. Ambroise Monod and Marie-Pierre Bovy were its presidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The French branch specially maintains close relations with the other European branches. It shared a secretariat with the French-speaking branches and H. Roser, J. Lasserre or R. Cruse had privileged relations with the German branch. In the 1990s, numerous links were also created with non-violent groups in French-speaking Africa (trainings and seminars of Jean and Hildegard Goss-Mayr in different African countries and presence of Alfred Bour in Rwanda after the genocide). Relations with the FOR US influenced the Movement from the 1930s onwards. Henri Roser’s reflections about his actions during the WWII were published in New York in 1945 and Magda and Andr\u00e9 Trocm\u00e9 made lecture tours there at the request of FOR US. Martin Luther King, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and member of the FOR US, came to France in 1966 at the invitation of the MIR and other movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Movement’s magazine, Les Cahiers de la R\u00e9conciliation,<\/em> which appeared in 1926, was both an internal communication organ and a means of disseminating the Movement’s ideas, making it possible to follow the evolution of its various commitments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papers may be presented in French or English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
