Drawing on institutional and personal archives, interviews and testimonies, observations and photographs, but also tackling absence and refusal, the six articles span French West Africa and contemporary Algeria, Gabon and Ghana, as well as colonial Algeria and the Upper Volta in the 1970s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The issue thus highlights the intersection of various apparatuses (medical, judicial, religious or ritual), bodies of knowledge and spaces dealing with madness, in order to capture the complexity of life trajectories. By critically analysing the forms of intimacy established with the respondents, we ultimately examine how methodological reflexivity contributes to renewing the epistemological basis for the study of madness in Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy your reading! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Had you any questions about the journal, kindly feel free to get in touch with us: <a href=\"mailto:sources@services.cnrs.fr\">sources@services.cnrs.fr<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Le 8e num\u00e9ro de la revue Sources.
