Abstract
Cet article pose le probleme de l'incidence de la globalisation des echanges et de la deterritorialisation qu'elle implique sur l'identite et l'action politique. Contrairement a la depolitisation souvent decrite, il s'avere que des formes originales d'actions politique conciliant le local et le global voient le jour, comme le montrent plusieurs exemples d'initiatives provenant de refugies ou de migrants. Helas, les structures politiques et economiques en place persistent a marginaliser et a deconsiderer ces experiences
