It argues that a non-event must be understood as the product of a publicization, of the expectations of the observers and actors who anticipate a revolutionary or catastrophic future, and of social and political routine activities that also contribute to its appearance. While the non-event is not a clear break, it can still be interrogated in order to reveal the social structures and imaginaries that lead to its production. In the meantime, a certain distance from the "non event" is necessary to grasp less spectacular phenomena that it tends to obscure.</dc:description><dc:description xml:lang="fr">Cet article s’intéresse à la production et à la réception d'un non-événement, à partir de l'exemple des élections présidentielles algériennes de 2014. Le non-événement y est décrit comme le produit d'une publicisation, d'attentes des observateurs et des acteurs qui anticipent une trajectoire révolutionnaire ou catastrophique, mais aussi de certaines activités routinières liées à la configuration politique. Si le non-événement n'est pas une rupture, il révèle néanmoins la complexité des structures sociales et des imaginaires collectifs. Dans le même temps, il nécessite aussi une prise de distance afin de pouvoir saisir des phénomènes moins spectaculaires qu'il tend à cacher.</dc:description><datacite:subjects><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">over-interpretation</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Algeria</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">non-event</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">elections</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">social sciences</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">fieldwork</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">Algérie</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">élections</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">non-événement</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">sciences sociales</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">sur-interprétation</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">terrain</datacite:subject><datacite:subject subjectScheme="author">[SHS.SOCIO]Humanities and Social Sciences/Sociology</datacite:subject></datacite:subjects><oaire:licenseCondition startDate="2017-05-22 11:39:45" uri="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0">Attribution - Pas d’Utilisation Commerciale 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0)</oaire:licenseCondition><datacite:dates><datacite:date dateType="Accepted">2017-05-22</datacite:date><datacite:date dateType="Issued">2017-05-22</datacite:date><datacite:date dateType="Available">2017-05-22</datacite:date></datacite:dates><dc:language>fra</dc:language><dc:publisher>Presses de l’Inalco</dc:publisher><oaire:resourceType resourceTypeGeneral="literature" uri="http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501">journal        article    </oaire:resourceType><datacite:relatedIdentifiers><datacite:relatedIdentifier relatedIdentifierType="URL" relationType="IsIdenticalTo">https://hal.science/hal-01509791v1</datacite:relatedIdentifier><datacite:relatedIdentifier relatedIdentifierType="ISSN" relationType="IsPartOf">2557-9959</datacite:relatedIdentifier></datacite:relatedIdentifiers><datacite:rights rightsURI="http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2">open access</datacite:rights><oaire:file accessRightsURI="http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2" mimeType="application/pdf" objectType="fulltext">http://societes-plurielles.episciences.org/3677/pdf</oaire:file><oaire:version uri="http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85">VoR</oaire:version><dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format><oaire:citationTitle>Sociétés plurielles</oaire:citationTitle><oaire:citationVolume>Facing the challenge of the event in the Social Sciences and the Humanities</oaire:citationVolume><oaire:citationIssue>Articles</oaire:citationIssue><dcterms:audience>Researchers</dcterms:audience><dcterms:audience>Students</dcterms:audience></resource>
