Hi Idriss,

I tried both your example files on my installation (Gerben's TeX on 
Mac OS X and
pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
ConTeXt  ver: 2005.04.19  fmt: 2005.4.24  int: english  mes: english).
No difference is seen between the two ways of inserting the dash: 
there is a kerning into the margin as it should be (as far as I 
know...).

Here \hyphen, \endash and \emdash work correctly in both your example files.
Probably the problem is located in your installation?

Best regards: OK
