Resumen
As the usefulness of integrating the historical dimension into anthropology no longer needs to be demonstrated, the political is one of the dimensions of this historization. However, this integration of history has not made it obvious that politics is taken seriously in the analysis of observed social practices. Sometimes contracted (hypo-politicization), sometimes amplified (hyper-politicization), politics nonetheless manifests itself through a research posture sensitive to its manifestations and consequences both in terms of observed social practices and in those of research. This article is intended as a contribution to this reflection on the subject of historization through politics. Based on elements of field work first carried out as part of a doctoral thesis on conversions to the Bahā’ī Faith in Tunisia, field work which was subsequently extended, he It will be a question here of questioning the way of integrating the political in this anthropological approach. This posture aims to situate the practices observed in the contemporary world to better understand the issues by making the Maghreb a terrain that is neither in the exotic exception (hypo-politicization) nor in the political exception (hyper-politicization) but, more simply, a field with specificities certainly, but a field like any other.
