Once again this year, several 1ere and Terminal year students in the Economics and Social Sciences/ Sociology specialization took part in the book club to choose the winner of the SES high school student book prize.
Like last year, the themes addressed through the 8 books in the selection were varied: rural sociology, sociology of gender, economics and sociology of work, international economics, ecology…
New this year, 2 comics were part of the selection and we really appreciated them.
Another novelty: we discussed our views and opinions as readers with the students of Ms. Rebeschini, SES teacher at the French high school in Niamey (Niger). Thus the pleasure of reading is combined with the ability to argue, to express oneself orally and with the curiosity to discover the tastes of others.
For the year 2021-2022, the student juries of the various participating high schools awarded the 1st and 2nd SES book high school prizes to :
1st price
La folle histoire de la mondialisation
The Crazy story of globalisation
by Enzo, Isabelle Bensidoun et Sébastien Jean. Les Arènes, 2021
2nd price
