L&#8217;auteur d&#233;montre la persistance paradoxale de cette cat&#233;gorie dans le droit administratif contemporain. Mobilisant les figures du Lazare juridique et du Janus juridique, il r&#233;v&#232;le un objet &#224; la fois disparu en droit positif et survivant dans les raisonnements jurisprudentiels. L&#8217;analyse retrace d&#8217;abord l&#8217;&#233;mergence d&#8217;un troisi&#232;me genre entre service public administratif et service public industriel et commercial. Cette qualification mat&#233;rielle, vivement contest&#233;e par Charles Eisenmann, fut censur&#233;e par l&#8217;arr&#234;t Gambini au profit de l&#8217;orthodoxie binaire. Ses m&#233;thodes de raisonnement subsistent toutefois dans l&#8217;action sociale, les services sociaux d&#8217;int&#233;r&#234;t g&#233;n&#233;ral et le contentieux des agents publics. L&#8217;auteur souligne enfin que cette r&#233;silience d&#233;passe le cadre juridique fran&#231;ais et atteint les &#201;tats africains francophones, h&#233;ritiers du droit administratif fran&#231;ais.Mots cl&#233;s&#160;: service public social, service public administratif, service public industriel et commercial, cat&#233;gorie disqualifi&#233;e.ABSTRACT&#160;This article examines the social public service, a legal construct established by the Naliato judgment and subsequently formally abandoned by the Gambini judgment. The author demonstrates the paradoxical persistence of this concept within contemporary administrative law. Drawing on the figures of the &#8216;legal Lazarus&#8217; and the &#8216;legal Janus&#8217;, he reveals a concept that has disappeared from positive law yet survives in judicial reasoning. The analysis first traces the emergence of a third category between administrative public service and industrial and commercial public service. This substantive classification, strongly contested by Charles Eisenmann, was rejected by the Gambini judgment in favour of binary orthodoxy. Its methods of reasoning nevertheless persist in social action, social services of general interest and litigation involving public officials. Finally, the author emphasises that this resilience extends beyond the French legal framework to reach French-speaking African states, the heirs to French administrative law.Keywords: social public service, administrative public service, industrial and commercial public service, disqualified category             <a href="https://afrilex.u-bordeaux.fr/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/AFRILEX_-LAWSON-NSINTO_LE-SERVICE-PUBLIC-SOCIAL-ENTRE-NALIATO-ET-GAMBINI-ESSAI-SUR-UNE-CATEGORIE-PRETORIENNE-DISQUALIFIEE.pdf"> <span> <span> <i></i></span> <span>L'int&#233;gralit&#233; de la contribution</span> </span> </a>        ]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2026 10:27:08 +02:00</pubDate></item><item><link>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03057070.2026.2667115?af=R</link><title>Liberation Armies, Women Soldiers and Martial Masculinity: Gender and Training in the Zimbabwe People&#8217;s Revolutionary Army (ZPRA)</title>  <source url="https://www.tandfonline.com/feed/rss/cjss20">tandf: Journal of Southern African Studies: Table of Contents</source><description><![CDATA[<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/cjss20/51/6">Volume 51, Issue 6</a>, December 2025<br>. <br>]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2026 10:27:08 +02:00</pubDate></item><item><link>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14725843.2026.2684701?af=R</link><title>Derogatory Akan names as pragmatic tools for social evaluation</title>  <source url="https://www.tandfonline.com/feed/rss/cafi20">tandf: African Identities: Table of Contents</source><description><![CDATA[. <br>]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2026 10:27:08 +02:00</pubDate></item><item><link>https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12132-026-09560-1</link><title>Social Housing for Spatial Transformation?

That hindrance fostered local feelings of marginalization among the people of Iyere. The community was among the peripheral communities reorganized and controlled by the traditional leadership of the Owo kingdom under the British system of indirect rule. But by 1967, it was no longer under the control of the Owo kingdom. The article examines the reasons for this change, focusing on the Iyere Improvement Society&#8217;s role in community development during decolonization and the factors behind Iyere&#8217;s political shift towards kingdom status. The case study of Iyere illustrates how local Western-educated African elites exploited the memory of colonial discontent in the periphery to continue pursuing modernity and progress after colonial rule ended.]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 10 Jun 2026 09:55:58 +02:00</pubDate></item><item>

<![CDATA[Widespread violence perpetrated by men against women has put masculinities under the spotlight. This article draws on the data from a broader qualitative study with male university peer-educator students (MUPES) in South Africa<a href="https://www.journals.ac.za/index.php/sajhe/workflow/index/6480/4/#_ftn1">[1]</a>. It focuses on MUPES&#8217; perspectives on the connections between masculinities and gender-based violence (GBV) and how they envision masculine transformation towards preventing GBV at universities. We worked with a purposefully selected group of MUPES and drew on theories of masculinities to thematically analyse the data from individual interviews and focus group discussions. The findings show that men are not always active producers of violence. While some intermittently reproduced hegemonic versions of masculinity that legitimate violence, most scrutinised and challenged the socio-cultural norms that valorise it. Not only did MUPES actively deconstruct some hegemonic masculine norms, but they also proposed a remaking of them and encouraged positive change in other men. We argue that male peer educators are valuable resources that may be engaged in university GBV intervention.   <a href="https://www.journals.ac.za/index.php/sajhe/workflow/index/6480/4/#_ftnref1">
