Résumé

Ce travail porte sur le rôle de la danse traditionnel et/ou folklorique dans les constructions identitaires en Israël, et plus particulièrement dans le cas des juifs d'origine yéménite

The primery aim of this study os to understand what role traditional and/or folklore dance plays in identity constructions in Israel, specially for jews from Yemen. Thus, the presence of different forms of dance will be questioned, in the specific context of this new state construction and development. Toa larger extent, this work is dedicated to search an anthropological approach to dance. It suggests a double analysis of dance events, formal and ethnological, borrowing the etic-emic notions from K. Pike. As such, one finds multiple possible identity constructions and reconstructions. These constructions can either follow each other or exist together, they can choose an element or another, depending on defferent parameters which the analysis have bring out.
