Alcime distinguished himself through translations of texts as diverse and complex as A Social History of Truth by the great American sociologist Steven Shapin, and Cities under Siege, by British geographer Stephen Graham, published at the University of Chicago Press and Verso, respectively. Both Bernard Lahire, (who was the first to welcome Alcime Steiger’s offer of a working partnership) and myself have been thrilled with this collaboration. It seems self-evident to us that his qualities as a translator will find their place at the service of demanding texts and editors.” Rémy Toulouse, Literary Director at La Découverte editions Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc., Science (general), History	No comment.

English to French: Introduction: "target intercept..." General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - English Introduction: "target intercept..." On 14 November 2007, Jacqui Smith, then the UK’s home secretary, announced one of the most ambitious attempts by any state in history for the systematic tracking and surveillance of all persons entering or leaving British territory. The highly controversial e-Borders programme aims to deploy sophisticated computer algorithms and data-mining techniques to identify ‘illegal’ or threatening people or behaviour before they threaten the UK’s territorial limits. The programme utilizes technology developed by the Trusted Borders consortium, led by the massive Raytheon defence corporation.	Translation - French Introduction: « intercepter la cible... » Le 14 novembre 2007, Jacqui Smith, alors ministre de l'Intérieur du Royaume-Uni, a annoncé le lancement de l'un des projets sécuritaires les plus ambitieux jamais portés par un État pour pister et surveiller systématiquement toute personne pénétrant ou quittant le territoire britannique. Le très controversé dispositif e-Borders vise à développer des algorithmes informatiques complexes et des techniques d'extraction de données pour identifier les personnes ou les comportements « illégaux » ou menaçants avant même qu'ils ne franchissent les limites du territoire britannique. Le dispositif repose sur la technologie développée par le consortium Trusted Borders, emmené par l'entreprise d'armement militaire Raytheon.
English to French: Epistemological decorum: the practical management of factual testimony General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.
Source text - English Epistemological decorum: the practical management of factual testimony Two major tasks have been taken up thus far. First, I have pointed (chapter 1) to the ineradicable role of trust in constituting systems of both social order and empirical knowledge. There have to be working answers to the questions ‘whom to trust?’ and ‘who tells the truth?’ if there is to be shared knowledge and shared social order. Second, I have pointed (chapters 2 through 4) to some major resources available in early modern English society for the identification of truth-tellers, laying particular stress upon the role of truthfulness in gentlemanly social relations and the cultural practices attending the practical handling of gentlemanly testimony. Now I need to pick up the problem of truth from the other end. I have to display truth-making practices in action. Here and in the next chapter I discuss the trajectory traced by empirical knowledge-claims in seventeenth-century English science, noting how their practical management mobilized the truth-making culture treated earlier as well as other related practices which bore upon assessment of whether or not particular claims were veridical.	Translation - French Le décorum épistémologique : la gestion pratique du témoignage factuel Jusqu'ici, deux grandes tâches ont été accomplies. D'abord, j'ai montré (chapitre 1) le rôle irréductible que joue la confiance dans la constitution des systèmes de l'ordre social et du savoir empirique. Puisque le savoir comme l'ordre social doivent être partagés, il faut nécessairement trouver des réponses fonctionnelles aux questions « à qui faire confiance ? » et « qui dit la vérité ? » Ensuite, j'ai montré (chapitres 2 à 4) l'existence dans l'Angleterre de l'époque moderne de ressources majeures pour identifier les énonciateurs-de-vérités, en insistant particulièrement sur le rôle de la véracité dans les relations sociales aristocratiques et dans les pratiques culturelles qui accompagnent le traitement pratique du témoignage aristocratique. Mais à présent, j'ai besoin d'inverser la perspective. Je dois exposer les pratiques concrètes de production-de-vérité. Ici, et dans le chapitre suivant, j'analyse donc la trajectoire suivie par les affirmations-de-connaissances empiriques dans la science anglaise du dix-septième siècle, en montrant comment leur gestion pratique se nourrissait de la culture de production-de-vérité évoquée plus haut, et qu'il existait d'autres pratiques apparentées qui pesaient également sur l'appréciation de la véracité de telle ou telle affirmation.
Spanish to French: La falacias del neoliberalismo y la emergencia de los derechos humanos General field: Other Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - Spanish La globalización es el tercer capítulo de la historia del capitalismo. El primero fue el capitalismo de Estado, el colonialismo, ejercido por Estados poderosos sobre otros más débiles, para apoderarse de sus riquezas y controlar su actividad, generalmente mediante el uso de la fuerza. Es el caso de España con América, de Inglaterra con la India o de Bélgica con el Congo. El segundo capítulo lo constituye la protección de los Estados a las empresas de sus países. Estados Unidos manda su Ejército a proteger los intereses de la United Fruits en Centroamérica, dando origen a la expresión “repúblicas bananeras”. De otra manera, está en el origen del golpe militar en Chile y siempre, en torno al petróleo, con la crisis permanente del Oriente Medio. En el tercer capítulo, los protagonistas son las empresas multinacionales que gozan de la protección del Banco Mundial, el Fondo Monetario Internacional y, especialmente, del Tratado Mundial de Comercio, para prevalecer sobre los intereses de los Estados en los que van asentándose. Este capítulo representa el momento de más amplia libertad del capital no ya para franquear las fronteras sino para imponerse a los países cuyas leyes laborales y ambientales vulneran. Esa libertad permite un entramado organizativo que va desde la extraterritorialidad fiscal a la creación de paraísos en los que esconder su dinero, pasando por la sobrevaloración del sector financiero y, siempre, por la explotación de los países que recorren.	Translation - French La mondialisation est le troisième chapitre de l'histoire du capitalisme. Le premier chapitre fut le capitalisme d'État, le colonialisme, exercé par de puissants États sur d'autres plus faibles, afin de s'emparer de leurs richesses et de contrôler leur activité, le plus souvent en ayant recours à la force. C'est l'histoire de l'Espagne en Amérique, de l'Angleterre en Inde ou de la Belgique au Congo. Le deuxième chapitre est caractérisé par la protection que les États assurent aux entreprises domiciliées sur leur territoire. Ainsi, les États-Unis envoient leur armée pour protéger les intérêts de la United Fruits en Amérique Centrale, donnant naissance à l'expression de « république bananière ». C'est encore le coup d'État militaire au Chili et toujours, pour le pétrole, la crise permanente du Moyen Orient. Dans le troisième chapitre, les protagonistes sont les entreprises multinationales qui jouissent de la protection de la Banque Mondiale, du Fond Monétaire International et, plus particulièrement de l'Organisation Mondiale du Commerce, pour supplanter les intérêts des États dans lesquels elles s'implantent. Ce chapitre correspond à la phase où la liberté du capital est la plus étendue, non pas tant pour franchir les frontières que pour s'imposer aux pays dont la réglementation sur le travail et l'environnement lui impose des limites. Cette liberté permet de tresser un canevas organisationnel qui va de l'exterritorialité fiscale jusqu'aux paradis fiscaux dans lesquels dissimuler de l'argent, en passant par la survalorisation de l'économie financière et, systématiquement, par l'exploitation des pays parcourus.
