Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Architecture and Planning, Program in Media Arts and Sciences, 2010.
Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 97-104).
For a timely answer to the question of sustainability, or how to provide for future generations, there needs to be shared accounting of our social and physical resources. Supply chain transparency makes it possible to map resource flows and ensure dependable production while avoiding social and environmental problems. Open channels of communications can support a collective effort to account for the impacts of supply chains and engage more people in the invention of long-term solutions, or sustainable design. This thesis proposes a crowd-sourced approach to resource accounting through the democratization of sustainable design. A web-based social network called Sourcemap was built to link diverse stakeholders through an open forum for supply chain transparency and environmental assessment. The scalable system points the way towards comprehensive sustainability accounting through the distributed verification of industrial practices. Sourcemap was developed over a two-year period in partnership with regional organizations, large businesses and SME's. Small business case studies show that an open social media platform can motivate sustainable practices at an enterprise level and on a regional scale. The public-facing supply chain publishing platform actively engages communities of producers, experts, consumers and oversight groups. Thousands of user-generated contributions point towards the need to improve the quality of transparency to form a broadly accessible resource for sustainability accounting.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited
Since the inception of the United States Department of Homeland Security, the American public has been told that it has a prominent role to play in the War on Terror. However, this role has not been clearly defined. This thesis explores the viability of community engagement as a tool to promote public safety and homeland security. Research was primarily conducted through a literature review (to understand how engagement impacts safety), and a comparison of four case studies of safety-centric engagement programs in the U.S. and United Kingdom. While several of the programs in the case studies have proven to be effective at developing trust and improving security, the U.S. federal government has not effectively worked with these resources to improve its understanding of the domestic security landscape. This thesis contends that a new system is necessary to connect the federal government to local engagement programs. This may be accomplished with a domestic coordination and engagement system, referred to as the Rising System for the purposes of this thesis. The goal of the Rising System would be threefold To link federal, state, and local governments; to build on existing community policing and outreach efforts to help at-risk communities identify their greatest challenges; and to provide a forum where community members can safely work with their government to develop solutions.

Abstract:
In the fashion industry, brands must engage consumers based on their method of consumption. The different methods of consumption are represented by four constructs, which depend on whether the consumption is individual or collective. Individual consumption can either be based on a brand or on a relationship with a brand ambassador. Collective consumption, on the other hand, involves people consuming in a social context. In this case, the focus can either be on the brand or on an activity (the brand is secondary). This study confirmed the existence of these constructs in the fashion industry by analyzing data from interviews, observation, forums, and secondary sources. This research led to the discovery of strategies brands can use to engage consumers within each of these constructs. When targeting individual consumers who are focused on a brand, companies can use quality, consistency and brand image as ways to build brand loyalty. When engaging individual consumers who have a relationship with a brand ambassador, brands must utilize strategies based on communication, authenticity, and knowledge. Brands can engage consumers who consume collectively, based on a brand, by implementing strategies that focus on social differentiation, narratives, entry points and exclusivity. Finally, fashion brands can connect with consumers that collectively consume based on an activity through marketing itself as a resource, building social affiliations, and providing a platform for this consumption.

Abstract:
Cette thèse saisit comme une opportunité d'enquête, le constat de l'absence de questionnement global sur la visite. Posée comme expérience spatiale particulière, la visite est renseignée comme un registre de la spatialité des individus. Cette recherche est structurée en deux parties. La première est un travail de construction d'une approche géographique de la visite et du visiteur. Volontairement exploratoire, elle compile et collecte les exemples et les cas, et remet cette expérience dans le contexte du XIXe siècle. La deuxième partie restitue les données empiriques en privilégiant, arrimée aux courants pragmatistes, le visiteur en action, la visite dans son déroulement et l'activité de transmission du « voir la ville en train de se faire ». Les actes d'énoncer, de voir sont ainsi saisis depuis leur contexte de production obligeant à prendre en considération toute l'exigence de la situation comme la dynamique commune. Le dernier chapitre revient sur l'urbain à l'épreuve de la visite
This doctoral thesis has exploited the opportunity to study the known fact that exploring the act of visiting in itself has been somewhat neglected. This act understood as a unique spatial experience is analysed as a register of the spatiality of individuals. This research piece is divided into two parts. The first part is a study built around a geographical approach of the act of visiting and the visitor. Pinned th the pragmatic vein, the second part brings toghether empirical data, prioritising the visitor in his/her process, the visit in its process and the activity of « seeing th town/city in construction ». During the visit, discussing and viewing are acts taken into account from their very contextual origins, forcing us to consider every demand revolving around this situation as a common driving force. The final chapter conceptualised urban space through the lens of the visit

Abstract:
Diese Arbeit möchte verstehen, was es bedeutet gleichzeitig eine Gemeinschaft und ein Unternehmen zu sein, und welche Herausforderungen dadurch für die intraorganisationale Koordination entstehen. Wie vereinbaren alternative Betriebe unterschiedliche Menschen und Rationalitäten miteinander, ohne auf formale Hierarchien zurückzugreifen? In einer vergleichende Fallstudie von drei kleinen, direkt-demokratisch organisierten Kollektivbetrieben wird der Beziehung zwischen Koordination, Bewertung und Moralvorstellungen nachgegangen. Die Arbeit nutzt hierfür Laurent Thévenots pragmatischer Soziologie des Engagements. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit liefern einen Beitrag zu drei Forschungsbereichen: Die Arbeit liefert einen Beitrag zum Feld der „valuation studies“. Es wird gezeigt, dass die mit Bewertung verbundene Unsicherheit zu Prozessen führen kann, die mehr einer kollektiven Entdeckung, als einem Konflikt entsprechen. Darüber hinaus wird die zentrale Rolle von legitimen Differenzierungs- und Äquivalenzprinzipien für Kommensuration aufgezeigt. Die Arbeit liefert einen Beitrag zur Forschung zum Verhältnis von Koordination, Bewertung und Moralvorstellungen in Organisationen. Sie zeigt, dass ein theoretischer Rahmen, der unterschiedliche Grade der Generalisierung von Koordination beachtet, wichtige Erkenntnisse für das Verständnis intraorganisationaler Koordination liefert. Die Arbeit liefert einen Beitrag zur Forschung über Kollektivbetriebe und Genossenschaften. Indem die eingenommene Perspektive über die Analyse von Governance-Strukturen hinausgeht, wird die Dualität von Kollektivbetrieben als ein Problem der Balance zwischen unterschiedlichen Koordinationsmodi gerahmt. Aus dieser Perspektive ist die zentrale Spannung, die Kollektivbetriebe ausbalancieren müssen, eine zwischen auf Vertrautheit basierender Koordination und Koordination, die auf Generalisierung von Beziehungen beruht.
This thesis wants to understand how alternative firms deal with the complexity of balancing different rationalities in their intraorganizational coordination, in the absence of formal hierarchies. In a comparative case study of three small, democratically governed collective firms, the relationship between coordination and morality is analyzed. The majority of research on collective firms focuses on democratic governance structures, which risks to underestimate the importance of coordination that is based on intimate knowledge and personal relations. This is especially important to understand collective firms, which are dependent on lateral accountability and cooperation between their members. Consequently, this work is informed by the work of Laurent Thévenot which allows to understand coordination based on different levels of generalization. The results of this thesis contribute to three different areas of research: First, contributions are made to the field of valuation studies, by further developing insights on the notion of the test. The thesis also points out the central role of legitimate principles of difference and equivalence for successful commensuration, and the tension between particularity and generalization in standardizing evaluation devices. Second, the study contributes insights for scholarship on coordination and morality in organizations. It demonstrates that considering coordination based on different degrees of generality yields important insights on intraorganizational coordination. Finally, this study contributes to scholarship on cooperatives and collectivist organizations. The often noted duality of collective firms is reframed as the need to balance and mediate different modes of coordination. The study develops a heuristic concept, the composite relation, which explains how collectives are held together despite their central tension between particular and collective goods.

Abstract:
[Abstract]: It is universally acknowledged that teachers are a critical key in the enhancement of student achievement in our schools. Less accepted is that teachers are key knowledge workers in emerging 21st century societies, demonstrating understandings of how new knowledge is created as well as what it looks like. The related issue of how schools actually function as productive professional learning communities, and how teachers engage in their own learning processes, remains at best vaguely understood.The research on which this dissertation was based sought to establish new insights into the dynamics of how teachers who are engaged in a process of successful development and revitalisation create new knowledge and make significant new meaning. The research acknowledged that meanings ascribed to the processes in question might well be influenced by issues of ideology. Thus, in addition to drawing heavily on recent literature relating to the concepts of professional learning communities, distributed leadership and collective intelligence, the study incorporated a multiperspective dimension. The following research problem was established to guide the creation of research questions, a research design and related methodology:What emerges as a construct of collective intelligence in schools when teacher engagement in a pedagogical knowledge formation process is viewed from different ideological perspectives?The collective in this study was constituted of the membership of two professional learning communities independently engaged in a widely used process of school revitalisation, the IDEAS (Innovative Designs for Enhancing Achievement in Schools) process. IDEAS utilises a number of distinctive educational constructs, including parallel leadership, alignment of key organisational elements and a schoolwide approach to teaching and learning, to engage the professional community of a school in the creation of significant new knowledge in the form of vision statements, values and pedagogical frameworks.The data collected from each school community’s knowledge-generating experiences are presented in two case study bricolages. Interpretation of these data led to identification of particular characteristics associated with professional learning processes for successful meaning-making. Further analysis of the data, through the lenses of three ideological perspectives (critical reflection, hermeneutic phenomenology and orgmindfulness) resulted in the proposal of a construct for collective intelligence in schools.Of particular significance as a result of the research is the postulation of a new image of the professional teacher – one who recognises his/her capacity for engagement in collective and reflective practices through the exercise of new ways of thinking and acting in support of student achievement. The findings prompt further inquiry into the deep meanings associated with the dynamics of successful professional learning communities in both schools and a spectrum of other organisations.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the process of engagement in nonviolent collective action. It is a cross- cultural study - using the methods of life history interview, participant observation and archival research - of twelve individuals drawn from three anti-militarist movements that emerged in the 1980s. The movements were: in Britain, the Greenham Common women; in Poland, Wolnosc i Pokoj: and, in Guatemala, the Runujel Junam Council of Ethnic Communities. Its aim is to understand how individuals move from belief to collective action and how their values are incorporated into the movements in which they engage. My findings challenge the global model of protest behaviour that fails to separate non-violent collective action from other forms of protest. They also challenge the idea of a unitary explanatory model of commitment: in particular, both the psychopathological model - in which political engagement is a decontextualised, irrational process - and the hypothesis that engagement is simply a response to structural injustice. MY findings suggest that political engagement may be not only the result of psychological processes within the individual or merely a response to the external world, but, rather, a unique combination of the two: it is a particular individual's response to a particular set of historical circumstances that produces engagement. Three possible models are proposed: they involve both affective and cognitive processes and depend on the interplay of historical events with the individual's own life circumstances. There are cross-cultural continuities, but also significant differences in the role of fear which are crucial to understanding the timing of initial involvement. Finally, I examine the relationship between choice of method of action and the process of commitment. cuIture can have an overriding influence on the development of a particular moral perspective but no one moral perspective is especially associated with non-violence. Engagement in nonviolent action can foster awareness of the importance of connection and relationship. Moreover, moral perspective and thinking about the useful limits of non-violence appea~ to be related.

Abstract:
This dissertation investigates three questions: First, what conditions make dissident collective action such as protest, revolt, rebellion, or civil war more likely to happen in a country? Second, what conditions make citizens more likely to join in dissident collective action? Third, does Internet use play a role in dissident collective action, and if so, why? I argue that motives and resources are necessary rather than sufficient conditions for dissident collective action. I develop an analytical framework integrating motives and resources. Specifically, I theorize that state repression is an important motive, and that civil society is critical in providing resources. Four statistical analyses are conducted to test the hypotheses. Using aggregate level data on countries over time, I find that civil war is more likely to occur in countries where both state repression and civil society are strong. Moreover, the effect of civil society on civil war onset increases as the repression level rises. at the individual level using 2008 Latin American Public Opinion Project surveys from 23 Latin American and Caribbean countries, I find individuals more likely to join in protest when they experience both more repression and greater civic engagement. Moreover, civic engagement’s effect on protest participation increases as people experience more repression. I further find that Internet use constitutes a kind of civic engagement and has effects similar to voluntary group involvement. the effect of Internet use on protest participation decreases as a person’s civic engagement increases. Finally, an individual is more likely to join in protest when experiencing more repression and using the Internet more frequently. Moreover, the effect of Internet use on protest participation increases as a person experiences more repression.

Abstract:
Music Education
Ph.D.
The purpose of this research was to investigate ways classical composers of African descent have been included in the mainstream academic canon. I examined the insights of four scholars who have been committed to including classical composers of African descent throughout their music careers. The initial research questions of this study were: 1) How do participants describe their frameworks for making the commitment to include classical composers of African descent throughout their careers? 2) What have been the challenges and benefits associated with their commitment? 3) What might contemporary scholars view as strategies for integrating classical composers of African descent into the mainstream academic canon? Four musicians, who have contributed to the scholarship related to classical works by composers of African descent in very different ways, participated in this qualitative collective case study: Dr. Ysaye Maria Barnwell, a composer and performer; Dr. Dominique-Rene de Lerma, musicologist; Dr. Anthony Thomas Leach, educator, conductor, and organist; and Mr. Hannibal Lokumbe, composer, trumpeter, and visionary. Through two in-depth interviews with each of the four scholars, a related question emerged: How have the participants contributed to the inclusion of classical composers of African descent throughout professional careers and personal lives? I transcribed the interviews, returned them to the participants for member checks, and prepared final, revised transcripts based on their feedback for analysis. I examined the interview data to obtain a collective representation related to the research questions. I analyzed the data for emerging codes, categories, and themes until details considered substantive to the research emerged. Themes that emerged focused on the need to identify the importance of seeing the contributions for classical composers of African descent from an Afrocentric as well as a Eurocentric perspective; the impact of the Civil Rights Movement on how each participant engaged the music throughout their lives; the importance of informal and formal education and the roles family, community, and school played in their relationship with the music they shared; and, the significance of creating access to their works through publications and professional associations.

Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l'apparition, l'évolution, les crises internes et les transformations du mouvement kurde en Turquie. Nous avons choisi d'étudier ce mouvement selon une conception qui implique d'introduire à la fois les dimensions structurées, organisationneiles et visibles et les aspects moins visibles, non structurés et peu centralisés de l'action contestataire kurde. Pour compléter cette vision, nous nous sommes également intéressés à l'expérience et à la subjectivité des acteurs du mouvement. La thèse s'inscrit au croisement de la sociologie de l'action, des théories de l'action collective et des subaltern studies. D'un point de vue méthodologique cette thèse s'appuie sur une démarche qualitative et favorise l'entretien semi-directif. Le corpus se compose de soixante-dix-sept entretiens, complétés par le dépouillement des sources secondaires. La thèse suit trois axes principaux et est découpée en six chapitres. Dans un premier temps, la thèse se concentre sur la phase d'émergence et d'évolution du mouvement kurde en Turquie. Dans un second temps, l'analyse porte sur le processus d'engagement, le militantisme, la scission collective et le désengagement au sein de l'espace kurde. Enfin, revenant à un niveau macro d'analyse, le dernier axe de cette thèse est consacré à démontrer comment le mouvement kurde voit s'élargir et se diversifier les espaces des activités kurdistes. Dans ce nouvel espace transnational, investi différemment par les divers acteurs, le discours, la rhétorique, la perception identitaire et la stratégie des acteurs du mouvement sont ébranlés et parfois transformes
This dissertation focuses on the appearance, evolution, internal crises and transformations of the Kurdish movement in Turkey. This work sits at the crossroads of the sociology of action, theories of collective action and subaltern studies. The study design introduces structured, organizational and visible dimensions of Kurdish protests on one side, and less-visible, unstructured and non-centralized aspects of these actions on the other. To complete this perspective, the experience and subjectivity of individual actors in the movement are analyzed. The methods used in this thesis are primarily qualitative, including semi-directed interviews. The corpus studied consists of 77 interviews with members of Kurdish associations and political parties in Turkey, as well as with guerrillas and former militants from the PKK. Secondary sources, documents and newspapers are also analyzed. The thesis follows three main lines of thought and is divided into six chapters. Firstly, this study focuses on the emergence and evolution of the Kurdish movement in Turkey. In the second section, the analysis focuses on processes of engagement, activism and disengagement in the Kurdish space. Finally, the last section examines how the space of Kurdish collective action is expanding and diversifying. Discourse, rhetoric, perceptions of identity and strategies are challenged and sometimes transformed in this new transnational space

Abstract:
La littérature a souligné à quel point la mobilisation collective des professionnels dans le sens de la performance de leur organisation pose question. En effet, les auteurs sont partagés sur la compatibilité entre engagement envers l’organisation et engagement envers la profession. Cette thèse cherche à comprendre la mobilisation collective des professionnels envers la performance de leur organisation, en interrogeant leur représentation sociale de la performance organisationnelle. Notre étude interroge les enseignants-chercheurs des universités françaises, confrontés depuis plusieurs années à d’importantes réformes, qui ont mis en place un management basé sur la performance. Des logiques managériales ont alors pris place aux cotés des logiques professionnelles pré-existantes. Les résultats révèlent que les enseignants-chercheurs ont une représentation largement partagée de la performance de l’université, mais deux groupes s’opposent : un premier groupe, majoritaire, est favorable au concept de performance, et un deuxième groupe, minoritaire est défavorable. Dès lors, quatre profils de mobilisation collective émergent, révélant ainsi des hybridations identitaires distinctes. Ainsi, l’identité professionnelle des enseignants-chercheurs évolue. Ils s’identifient davantage à leur établissement et intègrent ses besoins. Toutefois, des résultats émergents soulignent que ces quatre profils de mobilisation sont plus ou moins soutenus par une forte mobilisation au service public et que les profils les plus mobilisés ont un besoin fort de reconnaissance organisationnelle
Literature emphasized how much the professional’s collective mobilization towards the performance of their organization is problematic. In fact, the authors have divided opinions about the compatibility between the professional commitment and the organizational commitment. This thesis seeks to understand the professional’s collective mobilization to their organization performance by asking the social representation of the organizational performance. Our study of quantitative and exploratory nature question the academics of the French University who are facing, since previous years, significant reforms which implemented a management approach based on the performance. Therefore, the managerial logics took a place beside the prevailing professional logics. The results reveal that the academics defined the performance of the university as being the scientific publications and the student’s integration into the workplace. In the face of this representation widely shared about the performance of the university, two opposing groups: the first one, the majority group, is favourable to the concept of the performance, and the second one, in the minority, is unfavourable. From then on, four different profiles of collective mobilization emerge from the results, thus, revealing different identity hybridizations. So, the academics’ professional identity evolves. They identify more to their institution and integrate its needs. However, the emerging results stress, on one hand, that these four mobilization profiles are, more and less, supported by a strong Public Service Motivation. On the other hand, the most mobilized profiles need a high organizational support

Abstract:
Le travail de recherche développé dans cette thèse articule une réflexion théorique autour d'une création artistique personnelle qui met en jeu l'oeuvre et le spectateur au sein d'un même espace. Il s'interroge sur les rapports qui peuvent s'établir entre l'acte artistique et l'événement de sa réception chez l'Autre. Une ancienne structure de production d'électricité, l'usine Ouest-Lumière, est ici l'objet d'un investissement théorique et artistique. Elle est le lieu où se joue la rencontre entre la notion de plasticité et celle de mémoire collective. L'évolution de son statut juridique et social, passage d'une entité détruite à la réactivation d'une compagnie, permet de déployer une réflexion transversale à finalités utopiques et de s'intéresser, dans une optique de recherche-création, à des domaines comme l'économie, l 'histoire, les sciences, etc. La recherche passe par trois phases: la phase de résurgence rappelle l' origine de l'Usine, son exposition forcée à la lumière post-moderne et le contexte économique et socio- politique dans lequel elle est appelée à refaire surface. Elle dresse un portrait succinct des usines utopiques, rappelle l'individu au devoir de mémoire et vise la notion de mémoire collective. Elle souligne la nécessité actuelle d'un engagement artistique au coeur de la société; la phase de réactivation nourrit une stratégie de reconquête d'une identité oubliée (acquisition symbolique d'un nom, création d'un nouveau conseil d'administration, reconstitution d'un patrimoine architectural). Une administration fictive s'instaure et applique implacablement sa tâche bureaucratique tout en favorisant les échanges avec d'autres administrations; la phase de faire-part rend compte des inepties de notre société. Elle prend à témoin des périodes délicates mais révélatrices. Face à une falsification du réel, elle s'emploie à modifier ses termes et à les transformer en processus d'identification de l'individu. Cette thèse pose la question de savoir en quoi, aujourd'hui, l'action du plasticien peut " rafraîchir " la mémoire du plus grand nombre et jouer le rôle d'un service public dans l'espace social. En cas d'oubli, prière d'en/aire part cherche à interpréter, du point de vue de la plasticité, les enjeux artistiques, politiques ou éthiques que pose le monde d'aujourd'hui et ceux que posera sans doute le monde de demain.

Abstract:
The accumulated evidence from more than four decades of education research strongly suggests that parent involvement in schools carries significant benefits for students as well as for the success of schools (e.g., Henderson & Mapp, 2002). Governments in Australia and overseas have supported parent involvement in schools with a range of initiatives while parent groups have indicated a strong desire for expanded school roles that include participation in formal educational processes namely curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment. Research has also signalled the need for teachers to engage parents rather than adopt traditional parent-school involvement practices so that parents can participate as joint educators in their children's schooling alongside teachers (Pushor, 2001). Actually improving the quality of contact and relationships between parents and teachers to enable engagement however remains problematic. Coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing originally emerged as an innovative approach in the context of teaching secondary school science. Coteaching brings together the collective expertise of several individuals to expand learning opportunities for students while cogenerative dialogues refer to sessions in which participants talk, listen, and learn from one another about the process (Roth & Tobin, 2002a). Coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing reportedly benefits students academically and socially while rewarding educators professionally and emotionally through the support and collaboration they receive from fellow coteachers. These benefits ensue because coteaching theoretically positions teachers at one another's elbows, providing new and different understandings about teaching based on first-hand perspectives and shared goals for assisting students to learn. This thesis proposes that coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing may provide a vehicle for improving quality of contact and relationships between parents and teachers. To investigate coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing as a parent-teacher engagement mechanism, interpretive ethnographic case study research was conducted involving two parents and a secondary school teacher. Sociological ideas, namely Bourdieu's (1977) fields, habitus, and capitals, together with multiple dialectical concepts such as agency|structure (Sewell, 1992) and agency|passivity (Roth, 2007b, 2010) were assembled into a conceptual framework to examine parent-teacher relationships by describing and explaining cultural production and identity construction throughout the case study. Video and audio recordings of cogenerative dialogues and cotaught lessons comprised the chief data sources. Data were analysed using qualitative techniques such as discourse and conversation analysis to identify patterns and contradictions (Roth & Tobin, 2002a). The use of quality criteria detailed by Guba and Lincoln (2005) gives credence to the way in which ethical considerations infused the planning and conduct of this research. From the processes of data collection and analyses, three broad assertions were proffered. The findings highlight the significance of using multiple coordinated dialectical concepts for analysing the affordances and challenges of coteaching and cogenerative dialogues that include parents and teachers. Adopting the principles and purposes of coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing promoted trusting respectful relationships that generated an equitable culture. The simultaneous processes and tensions between logistics and ethics (i.e., the logistics|ethics dialectic) were proposed as a new way to conceptualise how power was redistributed among the participants. Knowledge of positive emotional energy and ongoing capital exchange conceived dialectically as the reciprocal interaction among cultural, social, and symbolic capitals (i.e., the dialectical relationship of cultural|social|symbolic capital) showed how coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing facilitated mutual understandings, joint decision-making, and group solidarity. The notion of passivity as the dialectical partner of agency explained how traditional roles and responsibilities were reconfigured and individual and collective agency expanded. Complexities that surfaced when implementing the coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing approach were outweighed by the multiple benefits that accrued for all involved. These benefits included the development of community-relevant and culturally-significant curricula that increased student agency and learning outcomes, heightened parent self-efficacy for participating in and contributing to formal educational processes, and enhanced teacher professionalism. This case study contributes to existing theory, knowledge and practice, and methodology in the research areas of parent-teacher relationships, specifically in secondary schools, and coteaching and cogenerative dialoguing. The study is particularly relevant given the challenges schools and teachers increasingly face to meaningfully connect with parents to better meet the needs of educational stakeholders in times of continual, complex, and rapid societal change.

Abstract:

This thesis project explores the chronic issue of untreated mental illness as a social problem within the context of the County of Santa Barbara California’s mental health public policy decision making process. As the county’s Board of Supervisors considers implementation of the California Legislature’s Assembly Bill AB1421, which provides for Assisted Outpatient Treatment, it is essential that the board fully consider the issues, community perspectives and impact. Funding to be requested in the following grant proposal is to be used for interventions providing an educational forum focusing on diverse stakeholder perspectives in order to develop implementation recommendations. Actual submission and/or funding of the grant were not required for the completion of this project. An assessment of current research establishes both that untreated mental illness is a serious social problem with high costs to the individual and communities, as well as the importance of community involvement in the development of public policy.

Abstract:
The goal of this project completed for the Greater Northfield Sustainability Collaborative (GNSC) was to understand how Northfield, Minnesota citizens are experiencing climate change. Thirty individuals were interviewed to find out what they know about climate change, what actions they are taking, what they think the solutions are to the problems, and what barriers they have to more fully engaging with climate change issues. The interview results are intended to promote and advance the community's discussion on climate change via social learning and community engagement activities such as town hall forums and community surveys. These activities encourage citizens in the community to have direct input into the development of the community's climate action plan (CAP). Analysis of the interviews showed that the interviewees are witnessing climate change, that most are taking at least some action such as recycling or lowering thermostats, that they can name barriers to their own inaction, that they say communication about climate change remains confusing and is not widespread in Northfield, and that they are able to provide numerous suggestions for what the local and broader leadership should be doing. The analysis also showed wide individual variation within the group. Interviewees who were less knowledgeable about climate were less likely to be taking action and do not participate in social groups where climate change is discussed. Conclusions are that the whole group would like more and better communication and education from our leaders, that they also expect our leaders to be part of creating solutions to climate change, and that the solutions the interviewees suggested provide a very thorough initial list of mitigation and adaptation strategies for the city's future CAP.

Abstract:
La littérature a souligné à quel point la mobilisation collective des professionnels dans le sens de la performance de leur organisation pose question. En effet, les auteurs sont partagés sur la compatibilité entre engagement envers l’organisation et engagement envers la profession. Cette thèse cherche à comprendre la mobilisation collective des professionnels envers la performance de leur organisation, en interrogeant leur représentation sociale de la performance organisationnelle. Notre étude interroge les enseignants-chercheurs des universités françaises, confrontés depuis plusieurs années à d’importantes réformes, qui ont mis en place un management basé sur la performance. Des logiques managériales ont alors pris place aux cotés des logiques professionnelles pré-existantes. Les résultats révèlent que les enseignants-chercheurs ont une représentation largement partagée de la performance de l’université, mais deux groupes s’opposent : un premier groupe, majoritaire, est favorable au concept de performance, et un deuxième groupe, minoritaire est défavorable. Dès lors, quatre profils de mobilisation collective émergent, révélant ainsi des hybridations identitaires distinctes. Ainsi, l’identité professionnelle des enseignants-chercheurs évolue. Ils s’identifient davantage à leur établissement et intègrent ses besoins. Toutefois, des résultats émergents soulignent que ces quatre profils de mobilisation sont plus ou moins soutenus par une forte mobilisation au service public et que les profils les plus mobilisés ont un besoin fort de reconnaissance organisationnelle
Literature emphasized how much the professional’s collective mobilization towards the performance of their organization is problematic. In fact, the authors have divided opinions about the compatibility between the professional commitment and the organizational commitment. This thesis seeks to understand the professional’s collective mobilization to their organization performance by asking the social representation of the organizational performance. Our study of quantitative and exploratory nature question the academics of the French University who are facing, since previous years, significant reforms which implemented a management approach based on the performance. Therefore, the managerial logics took a place beside the prevailing professional logics. The results reveal that the academics defined the performance of the university as being the scientific publications and the student’s integration into the workplace. In the face of this representation widely shared about the performance of the university, two opposing groups: the first one, the majority group, is favourable to the concept of the performance, and the second one, in the minority, is unfavourable. From then on, four different profiles of collective mobilization emerge from the results, thus, revealing different identity hybridizations. So, the academics’ professional identity evolves. They identify more to their institution and integrate its needs. However, the emerging results stress, on one hand, that these four mobilization profiles are, more and less, supported by a strong Public Service Motivation. On the other hand, the most mobilized profiles need a high organizational support

Abstract:
Dans le domaine des études littéraires, la question de l'engagement de l'écrivain a été abordée amplement pour décrire les événements littéraires, historiques, culturels et politiques de la Révolution tranquille au Québec, marquée notamment par la réapparition de la figure de l'intellectuel. Néanmoins, qu'est-ce qui pousse ce dernier à vouloir s'engager socialement et artistiquement ? Existe-il une corrélation entre cet engagement et le régime autoritaire duplessiste et clérical de la Grande noirceur ? Est-ce que cet intellectuel engagé aurait pu être mû par un vent de révolte ? Le présent mémoire tente de répondre à toutes ces questions. Partant de l'hypothèse que les écrivains-intellectuels, par leur engagement, ont contribué à l'avènement de la Révolution tranquille, ce mémoire propose de retracer, en se penchant sur diverses manifestations d'écrivains engagés, un comportement, sorte de morphologie du devenir intellectuel , voire révolutionnaire, qui pourrait s'avérer typique à toute révolution. En d'autres mots, ce mémoire tente d'exposer qu'à la suite d'une phase importante d'autoritarisme, un individu prend - ou peut prendre - petit à petit conscience de l'oppression qu'il subit et, dans le but d'y mettre fin, choisit de devenir"agissant". Dans un premier temps, un examen historique des notions françaises et québécoises de la naissance de l'intellectuel et de l'engagement est proposé ainsi qu'une étude des manifestations de l'engagement de ces intellectuels dans la société québécoise des années 1950-1959. Puis, les étapes, ou épreuves, qui jalonnent toute prise de conscience liée à la révolte et à la résistance sont circonscrites. L'écrivain-intellectuel se présente ici comme la figure de proue de ce mémoire. Dans un second temps, deux études de cas permettent de concrétiser ces notions au sein même de la vie et de l'oeuvre de Claude Gauvreau et d'Hubert Aquin, collaborateurs de l'avènement de la Révolution tranquille et de l'autodétermination du peuple québécois.

Teachers’ ability to engage students is in influenced by teachers’ collective efficacy beliefs. Yet, empirical evidence on the relationship between the social persuasion variables of schools and teacher collective efficacy in student engagement is limited. This study was designed to answer the following research question: “To what extent do teachers’ perceptions of professional development opportunities (PPDO), school leadership (PSL), and school use of performance feedback (PPF) relate to teachers’ collective efficacy in student engagement (CESE)?” To explore the relationship between teacher collective efficacy in student engagement and the social persuasion variables of schools, extant data from 262 teachers in a large urban school district in the United States was supplied through the Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) project. Scaled scores of independent and dependent variables were used to examine the relationship between the independent variables (perception of professional development opportunities, school leadership, and the use of performance feedback), and the dependent variable (collective efficacy in student engagement). A multiple regression of social persuasion variables was conducted to examine the relationship between the variables and to determine which variable, if any, has the most influence on the dependent variable. The multiple regression analysis showed that a combination of the independent variables of PPDO and PSL could explain 37% of the variance in CESE. Analyses also showed that PPDO had the strongest relationship with CESE. The results reinforce information from the literature review regarding the research questions and hypotheses. The social persuasion variables of schools are correlated with collective efficacy in student engagement. Perceptions of the use performance feedback, professional development opportunities, and school leadership are all significantly correlated with collective efficacy in student engagement. Out of the three social persuasion variables analyzed, only perception of professional development opportunities and school leadership explain a significant amount of the variance in collective efficacy in student engagement.

Service learning has emerged as one of the most popular mechanisms to promote and teach students about civic, moral, and political responsibility in American colleges and universities. This dissertation offers a critical exploration of the potential and limitations that engagement in service activities, and service learning in particular, can offer. The research was designed to explore how individual long-term volunteers attach meaning to their service experience, as well as how these meanings are constructed. In other words, what is the process by which students come to make sense of the volunteer work in which they are engaged? Of particular interest are the potential connections between these constructed meanings and a sense of politics or a sense of social change strategies. To explore the ways in which volunteers attach meaning to their service experience, I conducted participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and focus groups with a number of college students currently participating in a structured long-term service learning program; along with staff members of this program and of community partner organizations; and a group of comparison volunteers. This research provides an overview of the relationships, roles, responsibilities, benefits, challenges, and overall structure and design of a long-term service learning program. Participation in a structured service learning program shapes the ways in which students think about their service as it relates to a sense of politics and social change. However, the connection between service and political engagement is often complicated by a lack of political opportunities, a perceived lack of civic skills or political knowledge, and views of politics as divisive and ineffective. This dissertation also contributes to a greater understanding of the ways in which collective identity can develop among student service learners, and how this collective identity may impact their work

Abstract:
L’entreprise est le lieu de déploiement d'un statut professionnel privé nourri de conventions et accords collectifs de travail mais aussi d’engagements unilatéraux, d’usages et d’accords atypiques. L'application de ces normes, quelque fois leur survie, suscitent de nombreuses interrogations au fil des modifications apportées à la situation juridique de l’employeur, singulièrement de celles résultant du transfert de l’entreprise. Comment articuler les normes en concours ? Comment forger un corpus normatif unifié ? Les règles successivement posées par le législateur sont soumises à la double épreuve de la pratique professionnelle et, dès lors qu'éclate un contentieux, de l'interprétation du juge. Contraintes et incohérences sont dans certains cas de nature à neutraliser les effets attendus du transfert, voire d’y mettre obstacle. Des évolutions du corpus normatif seraient pertinentes afin que cessent les doutes (souvent) et les contradictions (parfois)
A private professional status, fed on collective agreements, unilateral commitments and business uses, spreads out over the firm. The fate of those collective standards arouses numerous issues over the modifications of the employer’s legal situation, especially in the case of a transfer of undertaking. How to articulate transferor’s collective standards with transferee’s ? How to build an harmonized professional status ? The legal rules are confronted with the firm’s practicals and the judge’s interpretations. Constraints and inconsistencies could neutralize the transfer’s expected impact. Legal improvements would be relevant to silence doubts and difficulties

Abstract:
À l'instar d'œuvres telles que Kinoautomat de Radúz Činčera, SAM - Sound Activated Mobile d'Edward Ihnatowicz et Glowflow de Myron Krueger, des artistes ont développé, dès les années 1960, des installations artistiques engageant des situations d'interaction collective co-localisée inédites, c'est-à-dire impliquant plusieurs voire de nombreux spectateurs interagissant dans le même lieu via et avec un dispositif informatique. Le nombre de ces travaux ne cesse d'augmenter depuis le début du 21ème siècle, profitant des nouvelles opportunités offertes par les avancées dans les technologies de vision par ordinateur en temps réel et par l'avènement de l'informatique ubiquitaire marquée par la multiplication et l'interopérabilité des appareils informatiques mobiles. Si les expériences en la matière sont de plus en plus fréquentes, elles n'ont jusqu'à ce jour fait l'objet d'aucune analyse structurée et, encore moins, de propositions d'outils et de méthodes de conception dédiés. Comment, aujourd'hui, concevoir de tels dispositifs artistiques interactifs dont la complexité intrinsèque implique des questions aussi bien de l'ordre technique, social, cognitif qu'esthétique ? Cette thèse met à contribution des travaux antérieurs dans les domaines de l'interaction homme-machine (IHM), du travail coopératif assisté par ordinateur (TCAO) et des arts interactifs dans le but d'accroître notre connaissance quant aux défis auxquels sont confrontés à la fois les artistes et les participants de telles installations et, au-delà, les concepteurs de ces dispositifs en devenir. Un ensemble d'outils et de lignes directrices sont proposés pour la conception de systèmes d'interaction collective co-localisée pour les installations d'art numérique. Est d'abord développé un système de classification centré sur les aspects les plus décisifs permettant l'émergence d'une expérience collective. Deux approches différentes sont ensuite explorées pour trouver les bases d'un langage de modélisation graphique pour l'analyse et la conception de tels dispositifs. S'appuyant sur les réseaux de Petri, la deuxième approche permet de modéliser aussi bien les ressources spatiales et matérielles d'une installation, que les interactions homme-machine, humain(s)-humain(s) et humain(s)-machine(s)-humain(s). Les investigations menées pour cette recherche ont nécessité de mettre un accent particulier sur les conditions - qu'elles soient spatiales, matérielles ou humaines - qui affectent la capacité pour les participants de telles installations de co-construire une expérience esthétique commune en l'absence d'orchestration ou d'un objectif pré-annoncé à atteindre. Si cette approche singulière concerne en premier lieu les arts interactifs, elle peut revêtir également un caractère pertinent pour d'autres communautés de recherche, y compris et en premier lieu, celle de l'IHM, ainsi que celles du TCAO, des Nouvelles interfaces pour l'expression musicale (NIME), du design d'interaction ou encore de la culture, en particulier de la muséographie
With works such as Kinoautomat by Radúz Činčera, SAM - Sound Activated Mobile by Edward Ihnatowicz, and Glowflow by Myron Krueger, artists have deployed, as early as the 1960s, art installations engaging novel situations of collective co-located interaction, i.e involving multiple or even many spectators interacting in the same place via and with a digital apparatus. The number of those works has continued to increase since the beginning of the 21st century, taking advantage of the new opportunities offered by advances in real-time computer vision technologies and the advent of ubiquitous computing marked by the multiplication and interoperability of mobile computing devices. While experiences in this area are more and more frequent, they have not yet been the subject of structured analysis and, even less, of proposals for dedicated tools and design methods. How can we, nowadays, conceive such interactive art installations whose intrinsic complexity involves questions of the technical, social, cognitive and aesthetic order? This dissertation draws on previous work in the fields of human-computer interaction (HCI), computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW), and interactive arts research with the aim of increasing our knowledge of the challenges faced both by art practitioners and participants in such collective interactive installations, and, beyond, the designers of apparatus in a promising future. A set of tools and guidelines are proposed when designing collective co-located interactions for digital art installations. First a classification system is developed centered on the most decisive aspects that allow the emergence of a collective experience. Two distinct approaches are then explored to find the bases of a graphical modeling language for the design and analysis of such apparatus. Build on top of Petri nets, the second approach supports modeling the spatial and material resources of an installation, as well as the human-machine, human-human and human-machine-human interactions. The investigations conducted for this research have required laying particular emphasis on the conditions - whether spatial, material, or human - which affect the ability for participants to co-construct a common aesthetic experience in the absence of orchestration or a preannounced goal to be achieved. While this singular approach primarily concerns interactive arts, it may be relevant to a wide range of research communities, including, and foremost, that of HCI, as well as CSCW, New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME), interaction design, and even culture, museography in particular

Abstract:
Cette thèse prend pour objet un militantisme statistiquement minoritaire et socialement improbable : l'engagement des hommes dans les mouvements féministes en France, depuis leur émergence politique à l'aube de la Troisième République jusqu'à la période contemporaine (1870-2010). À partir d'entretiens biographiques avec des militants et de sources d'archives diversifiées, elle se propose d'analyser ces engagements à la lumière de la sociologie du genre et de la sociologie du militantisme. En mobilisant la notion de " carrière militante ", ce travail montre que le militantisme féministe des hommes se saisit à partir de l'articulation de dispositions individuelles, d'expériences de socialisation, de positions dans des réseaux et de contextes organisationnels. L'analyse permet alors de distinguer deux principales modalités d'engagement des hommes dans des collectifs féministes : le registre humaniste, qui fonde les revendications au nom d'un individu universel, et le registre identitaire, mobilisé à partir d'un refus des assignations de genre. Dans l'un et l'autre cas, l'engagement des hommes n'est possible qu'au prix d'une appréhension du féminisme comme un mouvement désindexé de la seule expérience des femmes. Cette thèse contribue ainsi à la compréhension du sujet politique du féminisme, mais aussi plus largement, du sujet politique des mobilisations identitaires.

Abstract:
Cette thèse interroge le sens donné à l'évocation d'un passé de persécutions au sein du mouvement LGBT (Lesbien, Gay, Bisexuel, Trans*) en France. Ce passé, communément appréhendé dans l'espace militant par le terme de déportation pour motif d'homosexualité, désigne la répression et la persécution des homosexuels et des lesbiennes pendant la période nazie et la Seconde Guerre mondiale. À partir d'entretiens biographiques avec des militant.e.s d'une dizaine d'associations LGBT, d'observations et de dépouillement d'un corpus de productions militantes (textes emblématiques, magazines, revues, productions internes des associations) depuis les années 1970, notre travail analyse l'articulation de l'évocation de ce passé à l'engagement dans ce mouvement. D'une part, notre recherche s'appuie sur les acquis de la sociologie de la mémoire pour examiner les formes de présence de ce passé (traces, souvenirs, évocations et commémorations) dans la sphère militante LGBT où il se transmet par divers canaux. D'autre part, nous nous appuyons sur la sociologie du militantisme. Mobilisant la notion de « carrière militante », nous examinons les logiques d'un engagement basé sur la référence à ce passé et les raisons d'agir des militant.e.s qui s'investissent dans des actions visant à faire reconnaître officiellement la déportation pour motif d'homosexualité. Tout d'abord, une analyse des discours et des pratiques liés au rappel de ce passé dans l'histoire du militantisme LGBT montre que les références communes élaborées autour de ce passé participent à la formation d'un registre d'engagement singulier. Il conjugue les évocations du passé de persécution avec la problématisation de l'expérience homosexuelle dans le présent. Les formes d'action et les dispositifs déployés par les militant.e.s LGBT pour inscrire le récit de cette déportation au sein des récits publics, notamment à travers l'investissement de la « Journée du souvenir des victimes et des héros de la déportation », se modifient au cours de l'histoire du militantisme LGBT. Ces transformations dépendent des contextes d'interaction avec la sphère des entrepreneurs de mémoire institutionnalisés et de l'évolution des politiques publiques de la mémoire. Les transformations historiques des actions visant l'inscription de la déportation pour motif d'homosexualité au sein des récits publics et l'hétérogénéité des carrières militantes de personnes impliquées dans ce processus rendent ainsi possible une analyse des évocations du passé dans leur complexité, qui s'écarte de celles, encore très courantes, qui appréhendent ces pratiques et discours en termes de « concurrence ». Ensuite, l'analyse des carrières militantes met en évidence que le processus de socialisation militante opère comme un vecteur de transmission et d'identification. Dans la sphère militante, la mémoire empruntée des enquêté.e.s interagit avec d'autres sources : d'une part, les souvenirs des rares survivants de la déportation pour motif d'homosexualité, d'autre part, les mémoires communes militantes produites au cours des luttes pour la mise en visibilité de ce passé ainsi que la mémoire historique en lien avec cette époque, construite par les militant.e.s au long de l'histoire du mouvement LGBT. Pour l'individu qui se socialise au sein des associations étudiées, le sens de l'évocation de ce passé s'élabore en interaction avec ces différents niveaux de la mémoire. Dans ce processus, les expériences individuelles de discrimination et d'homophobie peuvent être mises en perspective et historicisées en se référant à ce passé. L'investissement dans ce registre d'engagement et la construction du sens de son engagement reposent sur plusieurs facteurs : pluralité des expériences socialisatrices, caractéristiques des espaces d'engagement, engagements multiples des militant.e.s. Recourant à de multiples dispositifs, les militant.e.s aspirent à transmettre ce passé et d'y sensibiliser les gays et les lesbiennes et un public plus large
This thesis examines the meaning given to past persecutions in the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans*) in France. This past, commonly understood in activist spaces by the term, deportation for reason of homosexuality, denotes the repression and persecution of homosexuals and lesbians during the Nazi period of the Second World War. Based on biographical interviews with activists from French LGBT organizations, observations and the analysis of a body of activist work (key texts, magazines, journals and internal activist writings) since the 1970s, our study analyzes the ways in which the evocation of this past is linked to the involvement in this movement. First, our study relies on the field of the sociology of memory in order to examine the present forms of this past (traces, memories, evocations and commemorations) in the LGBT activist sphere where it gets transmitted in different ways. Second, we rely on the field of the sociology of activism. Using the notion of "activist career" we examine the logics of an activist based on reference to this past and the reasons for being activists that are part of gaining official recognition of the deportation for reason of homosexuality. First of all, an analysis of these discourses and practices linked to the reminder of this past in the history of LGBT activism shows that the common references made about this past contribute to the formation of a singular register of commitment. This register structures the references to the past of persecution with the problematizing of the homosexual experience in the present. The forms of activism and the apparatuses deployed by LGBT activists to inscribe this specific deportation into public deportation narratives, particularly around the "Remembrance Day of the Victims and Heroes of Deportation" change throughout the history of LGBT activism. These shifts depend on the contexts of interacting with the sphere of institutionalized memory entrepreneurs and public policies of memory. Historical transformations of actions aiming at inscribing the deportation for being homosexual in public narratives as well as the heterogeneity of activists' careers implicated in this process thus render possible an analysis of evocations of the past in their complexity, that differ from the main analyses which understand these practices and discourses in terms of "competition". Furthermore, the analysis of activist careers shows that the activist socialization process operates as a vector of transmission and identification. Within the activist space, the borrowed memories of the interviewed activists interact with other sources: the memories of rare survivors of the deportation for being homosexual, but also the common activist memories produced in the struggles for visibility of this past, as well as the historical memory that activists have constructed of this time period. For the individual who is socialized through the organizations studied, the meaning given to the evocation of this past grows in close connection with different levels of memory. In this process, individual experiences of discrimination and homophobia can be put in perspective and historicized with reference to this past. The investment in this register of commitment and the construction of meaning for one's own commitment rely on several factors: the plurality of socializing experiences, the characteristics of the spaces of activism, and multiple forms of activist involvement. Using multiple apparatuses, activists seek to transmit this past and sensitize not only gays and lesbians but also a larger public

Abstract:
This study explores the engagement with music among second-generation migrants in Sweden in connection to their cultural identity and sense of belonging. First, a theoretical frame is developed that illustrates how music practices can contribute to the creation of ‘sense of place’ and ‘sense of belonging’ and how they are linked to ‘collective memory’ and ‘cultural identity’. Consequently, it is also explained how all this can be understood from a ‘generational perspective’. A qualitative approach has been chosen for this study and semi-structured interviews with 9 emerging adults living in Sweden, were conducted. The main results show that there is a high engagement with music among second-generation migrants in Sweden, many of them possessing a broad repertoire of favorite songs and genres. Mainly, it is through listening to the music coming from the home countries of their parents that they can express and navigate their cultural identities. Such kind of music carries meanings and mediates collective experiences and memories which can be passed on from one generation to the next one. These practices are important for second-generation migrants in terms of their sense of belonging to certain groups with which they can identify and feel connected to. In this sense, such kind of music helps them make sense of themselves in the world and in connection to others.

With works such as Kinoautomat by Radúz Činčera, SAM - Sound Activated Mobile by Edward Ihnatowicz, and Glowflow by Myron Krueger, artists have deployed, as early as the 1960s, art installations engaging novel situations of collective co-located interaction, i.e involving multiple or even many spectators interacting in the same place via and with a digital apparatus. The number of those works has continued to increase since the beginning of the 21st century, taking advantage of the new opportunities offered by advances in real-time computer vision technologies and the advent of ubiquitous computing marked by the multiplication and interoperability of mobile computing devices. While experiences in this area are more and more frequent, they have not yet been the subject of structured analysis and, even less, of proposals for dedicated tools and design methods. How can we, nowadays, conceive such interactive art installations whose intrinsic complexity involves questions of the technical, social, cognitive and aesthetic order? This dissertation draws on previous work in the fields of human-computer interaction (HCI), computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW), and interactive arts research with the aim of increasing our knowledge of the challenges faced both by art practitioners and participants in such collective interactive installations, and, beyond, the designers of apparatus in a promising future. A set of tools and guidelines are proposed when designing collective co-located interactions for digital art installations. First a classification system is developed centered on the most decisive aspects that allow the emergence of a collective experience. Two distinct approaches are then explored to find the bases of a graphical modeling language for the design and analysis of such apparatus. Build on top of Petri nets, the second approach supports modeling the spatial and material resources of an installation, as well as the human-machine, human-human and human-machine-human interactions. The investigations conducted for this research have required laying particular emphasis on the conditions - whether spatial, material, or human - which affect the ability for participants to co-construct a common aesthetic experience in the absence of orchestration or a preannounced goal to be achieved. While this singular approach primarily concerns interactive arts, it may be relevant to a wide range of research communities, including, and foremost, that of HCI, as well as CSCW, New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME), interaction design, and even culture, museography in particular

Abstract:
Par une contestation radicale du patriarcat et visant une « libération des femmes », les mouvements féministes qui se développent dans les années 1970 ont contribué à remettre en question les rapports de genre dans de nombreux domaines. À partir d’une recherche combinant travail sur archives, enquête par questionnaire et entretiens, la thèse prend pour objet l’engagement de femmes dans ces mobilisations en France. Elle vise à comprendre comment la participation à ce mouvement social – caractérisé par la politisation de la sphère privée – a transformé les trajectoires de militantes « ordinaires » et celles de leurs enfants. Au moyen d’une approche localisée et comparée, la thèse analyse d’abord les contextes militants dans lesquels les féministes ont circulé et ont été socialisées. Retraçant les mobilisations féministes qui se déploient à Lyon et à Grenoble entre 1970 et 1984, elle revisite l’histoire des féminismes français de la « deuxième vague ». Étudiant ensuite les carrières militantes des féministes, la thèse montre les effets socialisateurs durables de ces engagements et leur empreinte sur les différentes sphères de leur vie. Des analyses séquentielles permettent de mettre au jour leurs principaux devenirs jusqu’à aujourd’hui, sur le plan politique comme sur le plan personnel. Resserrant la focale d’analyse sur les féministes devenues mères, l’enquête révèle finalement par quels pratiques et processus une transmission familiale du féminisme s’est opérée et quels héritages politiques en résultent chez les enfants. Elle dégage plusieurs facteurs pour comprendre les appropriations différenciées de ces héritages parmi la deuxième génération
The feminist movements that arose in the 1970’s, promoting a radical contestation of patriarchy and committed to “women’s liberation”, helped challenge gender relations in many areas. Built upon an empirical research that combines archival work, questionnaires and interviews, my dissertation focuses on the women who took part in these mobilizations in France. It aims to understand how the involvement in this movement, characterised by the politicization of the private sphere, transformed “common” activists’ trajectories and those of their children. Using a local and comparative approach, this work first analyses the contexts in which the feminists evolved and were socialised. By tracing the feminist mobilizations that unfolded in Lyons and Grenoble between 1970 and 1984, it also revisits the history of the “second wave” French women’s movements. The study of the feminists’ activist careers then highlights the lasting socialising effects of their commitments and the impact they had on different areas of their life. Likewise, the use of sequence analysis reveals the trajectories they followed until present day, both from a political and personal prospect. Finally, a deeper focus on the activists who became mothers uncovers how intergenerational transmission of feminism occurred and which political contents the children inherited. In particular, this dissertation proposes several factors that help understand the differentiated appropriations of this heritage among the second generation

Abstract:
A distance des critiques les plus fréquemment dirigées contre les habitants du périurbain, cette thèse analyse les différentes facettes de l’engagement local de certaines fractions des classes moyennes et la manière dont le périurbain peut être un terrain d’expérimentation politique. Dans les années 1970 et 1980, les « nouvelles classes moyennes » de l’époque ont cherché à conquérir les mairies périurbaines afin de rendre leurs territoires de vie plus conformes à leurs usages. Cette thèse s’est proposée de retrouver des mobilisations qui présentent des similitudes avec la « vague rose » qui a touché les territoires périurbains dans les années 1970 et 1980. Près de quarante ans plus tard, dans quelle mesure les habitants du périurbain souhaitent-ils acquérir une certaine maîtrise de leur environnement résidentiel et comment tentent-ils d’y parvenir ? Cette thèse s’appuie sur une enquête de terrain, en partie en immersion, au sein de deux associations de défense de l’environnement. Situées dans le périurbain nord-isérois, elles visent, entre autres, le développement du vélo comme mode de transport quotidien. L’enquête explore les logiques d’action des militants rencontrés, les valeurs qui sous-tendent leur engagement local, les formes prises par cet engagement ainsi que les modalités de l’ajustement de certains militants à la nouvelle scène politique locale qu’est l’intercommunalité
This thesis analyses the different aspects of the middle classes local engagement and the way in which periurban areas can be spaces of political experimentation. In the 1970s and 1980s, the middle classes sought to gain power and take over periurban municipalities in order to make the areas where they lived more in keeping with their lifestyle. This thesis explores mobilisations presenting similarities to the ones associated with the socialist party landslide victories in periurban areas in the 1970s and 1980s. Almost forty years later, to what extent do the inhabitants of periurban areas wish to hold some control over their residential environment and how do they go about acquiring this control ? This thesis is based on a field investigation within two environmental organizations. Both located in Lyon’s periurban area, they aim to develop cycling as a daily transport mode. This thesis explores the activists’ rationale for action, the values underlying their local commitment, the forms taken by this commitment and the modalities of adjustment to the new political scene of intercommunality

Abstract:
La question écologique investit depuis une vingtaine d’années l’ensemble des domaines sociétaux, l’environnement est ainsi érigé en problème central autour duquel les récits et les projets collectifs doivent être formulés et construits pour être légitimés. Le champ agri-alimentaire n’échappe pas à ces processus d’écologisation et fournit un terrain idéal pour les observer. À partir d’une enquête ethnographique conduite durant trois ans (2017-2020) dans le Var et dans les Alpes Maritimes, cette thèse interroge les modes choisis pour problématiser, adopter ou encore critiquer le dénominateur commun de l’écologie au sein de collectifs associant acteurs hétérogènes autour de l’ambition de transformer les modes de production et de consommation alimentaire. Elle combine socio-anthropologie de l’action publique et sociologie pragmatique de l’action collective et s’attache à comprendre la manière dont les publics, institutionnels, économiques ou de la société civile, s’emparent de la question écologique dans un champ d’action singulier. L’analyse porte d’une part sur des dispositifs et programmes de l’action publique territoriale (e.g. Projets Alimentaires Territoriaux) et de l’autre sur des dispositifs d’action collective ciblés (certifications participatives, actions des structures de l’ESS, mobilisations de consommateurs, groupements de producteurs). D’abord, elle suggère que les récits de l’écologisation fabriqués localement reflètent à la fois l’institutionnalisation de l’environnement et la singularité des deux contextes territoriaux étudiés. Ensuite, elle montre que la problématisation collective de la question écologique peut être source de tensions au sein des collectifs étudiés et notamment lorsque celle-ci vient déstabiliser les routines, les normes et les modes d’organisation établis. Enfin, ce travail montre que l’intégration de la question écologique au tissu social se traduit par une « mise en projet » de l’action, individuelle comme collective, révélatrice d’une quête de nouvelles raisons d’être par temps de crises
For the past twenty years, the environmental issue has been present in all areas of society, and the environment has become the central problem in the formulation of narratives and collective projects. The agri-food system provides an invaluable field for observing processes of ecologisation. Through an ethnographic survey conducted over three years (2017-2020) in the south-est of France, this research examines the ways in which the environmental issue is problematized, adopted or criticised within collectives that associate a range of actors aiming at transforming food production and consumption patterns. It combines a socio-anthropological approach of public action with a pragmatic approach of collective action and focuses on the way in which institutional, economic and civil society actors address the ecological issue in the agri-food field. This study focuses, on the one hand, on territorial public action programmes (e.g., “Projets Alimentaires Terriaux”) and, on the other hand, on targeted collective initiatives (participative certifications, social and solidarity economy initiatives, consumers mobilisations, producers’ groups). Firstly, it suggests that the narratives of ecologisation produced locally reflect both the institutionalisation of environment and the specificity of the two territorial contexts studied. Secondly, it shows that the collective problematization of the environmental question can be a source of tension within the collectives under study, especially when it undermines the established routines, values, and forms of organization. Finally, this work shows that the advent of the environmental question is expressed by a “projectification” of action, both individual and collective, revealing a quest for new purposes in a time of crisis

Abstract:
Nous décrivons le phénomène d’engagement à travers des expériences transmédia coconstruites avec les bénéficiaires dans le contexte de la formation pour adultes. Nous abordons ce terrain en faisant l’hypothèse qu’un transmédia à valeur expérientielle permet d’accroitre la participation des sujets pour consolider l’engagement en formation. Cette hypothèse ouvre la perspective d’une médiation de type transmédia capable, d’intégrer des objectifs d’exploitation scientifique de l’engagement et de valorisation de la participation et de l’attention qui pourraient être intéressants pour d’autres corpus.À partir d’un cadre d’analyse centré sur les bénéficiaires des transactions, notre enquête met en exergue différentes formes d’engagement suivant des transmédia hybrides aux caractéristiques spécifiques. La complémentarité de ces transmédia a favorisé divers régimes d’engagement observés de façon ponctuelle, pour un engagement sur la durée
We describe the phenomenon of engagement through co-constructed transmedia experiences with the beneficiaries in the context of adult education. We approach this ground on the assumption that a transmedia with experiential value makes it possible to increase the participation of subjects to consolidate the commitment in training. This hypothesis opens up the prospect of a transmedia type of mediation capable of integrating the objectives of scientific exploitation for the commitment and enhancement of participation and the attention that could be interesting for other corpuses. Based on an analysis framework focused on the beneficiaries of transactions, our survey highlighted different forms of hybrid transmedia engagement with specific characteristics. The complementarity of these transmedia has favoured various commitment regimes observed on an ad hoc basis for a long-term commitment

Abstract:
Cette thèse décrit des engagements pour la cause de personnes disparues au Liban (enlèvement, meurtre ou emprisonnement) durant la guerre civile (1975 à 1989) et les occupations militaires qui ont suivi. Certains proches – notamment des femmes – se sont publiquement engagés depuis les années 1980 pour les retrouver, désigner des responsabilités, faire entendre leurs propres droits. Alliés à d’autres acteurs, ils et elles ont inscrit leur mobilisation de manière plurielle dans l’espace politique où rares sont les dispositifs de traitement du conflit. S’est ainsi façonnée au fil des ans une cause commune malgré leur fragmentation initiale, les drames intimes et les contraintes politiques rencontrées. Le nombre de plus en plus réduit de militants n’a pas tué la cause, mais, à l’épreuve du temps, a transformé les logiques de l’action collective. Par des dispositifs de sensibilisation, l’usage d’outils juridiques et un travail mémoriel, ces militants s’efforcent de faire entendre leur souffrance, mais également de lutter contre l’oubli du conflit voire à obtenir justice. L’observation de leurs activités et l’analyse de leurs témoignages entre 2011 et 2018 m’ont permis de mesurer les effets de leur action sur la cause comme sur leur engagement. Mettre en récit les crimes passés via la formulation d’un problème d’amnésie généralisée n’a pas permis de désigner de responsabilités claires. La remémoration publique des disparus et les procédures engagées en justice par des cause-lawyers ont suscité des dilemmes tant affectifs que stratégiques. C’est finalement à une sociologie des politiques de l’après-conflit au Liban que se propose de contribuer cette thèse
This thesis describes commitments to the cause of the disappeared in Lebanon, disappearances (kidnapping, murder, detention) occurred during the Lebanese civil war (1975-1989) and the military occupations that followed. Some families of missing persons, mostly women, have been publicly committed since the 1980s to finding them, to designate responsibilities, to have their own rights heard. They allied with various actors, and their mobilizations have been embedded in the political space, where few policies focus on post-conflit resolution. These activists have forged a common cause over the years despite the fragmentation of the cases, their parents’ intimate problems and the political constraints for their struggle. The shrinking number of activists did not kill the cause but the test of time has transformed the logics of collective action. Through legal tools, memorial work and “sensitizing devices”, they sought to raise public awareness on their suffering, but also to fight against forgetfulness about the conflict and to obtain justice. Observing their activities and their testimonies between 2011 and 2018 enabled measurement of the effects of their action on their cause and on their commitment. Their telling the story of past crimes through the formulation of a problem of general amnesia did not always enabled a clear designation of responsible parties. The public remembrance of the disappeared and the legal proceedings brought by their cause-lawyers have both given rise to emotional and strategic dilemmas. In the light of the study of these mobilizations, I eventually intend in this thesis to contribute to a sociology of post-conflict politics in Lebanon

Abstract:
Cette thèse explore le rapport entre les conflits environnementaux et la question de la citoyenneté, à différentes échelles et temporalités. Depuis une approche anthropologique, cette thèse a pour objet la saisie empirique des processus de citoyenneté à l’œuvre dans deux cas de conflits environnementaux qui se déroulent dans la ville de Valdivia et dans le village côtier de Mehuín, au sud du Chili, à cause de la construction et mise en fonctionnement d’une usine de cellulose. En reprenant l’historicité des conflits ainsi que les ruptures qu'ils ont traversées, cette thèse s'attache à analyser la manière dont différentes formes de citoyenneté se sont fabriquées, évoluent et se transforment lors des conflits.Dans cette recherche, les constructions de citoyenneté se jouent au moins en trois domaines d'analyse, lesquels rendent compte en même temps des différents niveaux, lieux et moments des conflits où elles prennent forme. Tout d’abord, l’analyse attire l'attention sur les constructions de citoyenneté qui se donnent à voir lors de la discussion publique qui s'ouvre à l'occasion des conflits. Ce faisant, l'analyse va porter une attention particulière aux registres de citoyenneté ou « registres de légitimité » (Fourniau, 1996 ; Carrel, 2007) mobilisés par les acteurs engagés pour à la fois renforcer leur position dans le conflit et entreprendre la défense des sites. En deuxième lieu, cette recherche s'attache à analyser les constructions de citoyenneté identifiées dans le domaine des formes d'action et d'organisation mises en place par les collectifs dans le cadre de la contestation. Le troisième et dernier domaine d'analyse des citoyennetés qui se donnent à voir au cours des conflits, est celui de l'engagement collectif. L'enquête pose ici la question des « trajectoires d’engagement » (Bertheleu et Neveu, 2005 ; Douat et al. 2012), c’est-à-dire, de savoir comment l'engagement collectif se construit et évolue au cours des conflits.Cette thèse essaie ainsi d'apporter à la compréhension de la fabrique de la citoyenneté, ou des « citoyennetés mouvantes », ainsi que du rôle que jouent les conflits environnementaux dans la construction democratique au Chili
This thesis explores the relationship between environmental conflicts and the issue of citizenship, at different scales and temporalities. From an anthropological approach, this thesis aims at the empirical capture of citizenship processes in action in two cases of environmental conflicts that take place in the city of Valdivia and in the coastal town of Mehuín, in southern Chile, due to the construction and commissioning of a cellulose factory. By taking up the historicity of conflicts, as well as the ruptures they have gone through, this thesis focuses on analyzing the way in which different forms of citizenship have been made, evolved and transformed during the conflicts.In this research, the constructions of citizenship are played out in at least three areas of analysis, which at the same time account for the different levels, places and moments of the conflicts in which they take shape. In this way, the analysis will pay special attention to the citizenship registers or “legitimacy registers” (Fourniau, 1996; Carrel, 2007) mobilized by the actors involved to strengthen their position in the conflict and undertake the defense of the sites. Second, this research focuses on analyzing the constructions of citizenship identified in the field of the forms of action and organization established by the collectives in the context of the protest. The third and final area of analysis of citizenships that emerge during conflicts is that of collective engagement. The research raises here the question of “engagement trajectories” (Bertheleu and Neveu, 2005; Douat et al. 2012), that is, to now how collective engagement is built and evolves during the conflicts. This thesis thus seeks to contribute to the understanding of the fabric of citizenship, or of “moving citizenships”, as well as the role played by environmental conflicts in the democratic construction in Chile

This study is related to the discussions about Militant Engagement and particularly deals with the affirmation process of a housing association and its political entrepreneurs in the São Luís metropolitan region. The emergence of this collective agent in 2003 was the local reflection of the change that occurred in the relationship between social movements and the government noticed in the period of redemocratization in Brazil. From this, we observed a relative degree of inclusion of popular sectors in political and administrative institutions. In the Luís Inácio Lula da Silva and Dilma Rousseff governments, the experiences so-called "participatory” have multiplied and become institutionalized. In this manner, social movement organizations activated the "right to the city," "urban reform," and "self-management" symbols have gained ground in planning and implementing housing estates for the grassroots in different parts of the country. In this context, the research attempted to comprehend how the State Association for Support of Popular Housing became representative of the "housing cause" in Maranhão and to trace its specificities, the delineations that such collective agent gave to the issue housing locally, realizing in the process the political role of representation and mediation of this mediator and his individual spokespersons. Thus, this research on a social organization and the militant engagement of its representatives was problematized from the perspective of historical sociology and militant engagement sociology, highlighting the social properties of those who engage, their accumulated attributes, resources detained, individual predispositions to militancy and, on a more general level, to the opportunity spheres and constraining under which this occurs. Considering the genetic, relational and sociographic perspective, the results were obtained through archival research, documentary, participant observation and interviews made with both the organization militants and some activists who graduated from this "problematic" in Maranhão in the first semester 2016.
Este estudo faz parte das discussões acerca do Engajamento Militante e trata, especificamente, do processo de afirmação de uma associação habitacional e de seus empreendedores políticos na região metropolitana de São Luís/MA. A emergência desse agente coletivo em 2003 foi o reflexo local da mudança ocorrida na relação entre movimentos sociais e Estado observada no período de redemocratização do Brasil. Observou-se a partir daí relativo grau de inclusão de setores populares nas instituições político administrativas. Nos governos de Luís Inácio Lula da Silva e Dilma Rousseff as experiências ditas “participativas” se multiplicaram e se institucionalizaram. Aí organizações de movimentos sociais acionando os símbolos “direito à cidade”, “reforma urbana” e “autogestão” ganharam espaço no planejamento e implementação de conjuntos habitacionais para as camadas populares em várias partes do país. Nesse contexto, a pesquisa tentou compreender como a Associação Estadual de Apoio à Moradia Popular se tornou representante da “causa habitacional” no Maranhão e localizar suas especificidades, os delineamentos que tal agente coletivo deu à questão habitacional localmente, percebendo no processo o papel político de representação e mediação desse agente e de seus porta-vozes individuais. Assim, esta pesquisa sobre uma organização social e o engajamento militante de seus representantes foi problematizada na perspectiva da sociologia histórica e sociologia do engajamento militante, dando relevo às propriedades sociais daqueles que se engajam, seus atributos acumulados, recursos detidos, predisposições individuais para a militância e, no plano mais geral, às esferas de oportunidades e constrangimentos sob as quais isso ocorre. Considerando a perspectiva genética, relacional e sociográfica, os resultados foram obtidos por meio de pesquisa arquivística, documental, observação participante e por meio de realização de entrevistas tanto com os militantes da entidade quanto com alguns ativistas egressos dessa “problemática” no Maranhão no primeiro semestre de 2016

Abstract:
This thesis aims to illustrate how civil society organizations reflect on and communicate for societal change. The aim is also to broaden the understanding of how norms and logics on social media platforms characterize communication and the discourse about social engagement. With a basis in discourse theory, the particular focus of the study is on identifying discursive themes, and conflicts that exist within these themes. The analysis draws upon critical theories about the power position and technical affordance of social media platforms, as well as perspectives on the political subject - individually and collectively. The analysis is based on in-depth interviews with representatives from six environmental organizations, two of which are newer network-based movements. The results show discursive nodal points such as autonomous, individual-based and political.  These partly gain their meaning through social media and technical affordances, which enable lower engagement thresholds, which in turn challenge the organizations’ ideas about long-term engagement. Political engagement is largely associated with online engagement, via social media, at the same time an opposite relationship shows that screen time takes focus from deepened or physical engagement. The results also show that organizations are aware of the power of social media platforms, where hidden algorithms and commercial logic contrast with the organizations’ visions, while at the same time the platforms play an important role for the organizations’ communication.

Abstract:
Cette thèse se propose de rendre compte de l’oeuvre de Marie-Louise Taos Amrouche (1913-1976) comme prise de parole, engagement et écriture des identités multiples. Pour faireressortir de nouveaux aspects en lien avec la problématique de la parole des femmes parl’écriture, une analyse socioculturelle contextualisée et historicisée est privilégiée. L’enjeu estde montrer comment la carrière d’Amrouche, de sa venue à l’écriture à sa projection dans lepaysage littéraire français, est traversée par des obstacles liés aux origines et au genre. Uneapproche intersectionnelle permet notamment de (re)penser les différentes dominations – ladiscrimination de genre et de « race » et la problématique des identités plurielles – sans leshiérarchiser et en mettant à jour les mécanismes d’oppression et les stratégies de résistance dusujet écrivant.Pionnière sur l’écriture de sujets sensibles à son époque, Amrouche n’est pas seulementécrivaine mais également cantatrice des chants berbères. Cette thèse démontre, par ailleurs,comment l’écriture et le chant se font simultanément et traduisent le même besoin celuid’accord entre : la prise de parole d’une femme « indigène » sous la colonisation, la recherchedes origines berbères et la part de l’héritage chrétien et français. Est particulièrement mise enlumière la façon dans laquelle Amrouche devient un sujet hybride résultant de plusieursidentités créées par l’Histoire coloniale et postcoloniale : elle refuse de choisir entre lesidentités multiples, ne voulant en brader aucune au profit d’une autre. La recherche d’unaccord im/possible ressort ainsi comme la métaphore privilégiée pour qualifier ses luttes etson écriture
This dissertation aims to take stock of the work of Marie-Louise Taos Amrouche (1913-1976), in its capacity to speak out, engage politically, and write multiple identities. Acontextualized and historicized socio-cultural analysis is favored in order to bring out newaspects in conjunction with other research on women’s voices in writing. I hope to show howthe development of Amrouche’s career, how she began writing and her arrival into the Frenchliterary scene, is crossed by obstacles tied to constraints related to her origin and her gender.An intersectional approach allows us in particular to (re)think different types of dominationsuch as race and gender discrimination, according to themes of plural identities, withoutinternal hierarchies, and to take an up-to-date approach to mechanisms of oppression and thewriting subject’s capacity for strategies of resistance.Pioneer of writing on sensitive subjects of her time, Amrouche is not only a writer but also asinger of traditional Berber music. I intend to show the interrelatedness of song and writingand their mutual translating of the same call to find an agreement between the “indigenous”woman’s need to speak out from under colonization, the search for Berber origins and the roleplayed by Christian and French heritage. I thus shed light on the way in which Amrouchebecomes a hybrid subject resulting from the many identities created out of colonial andpostcolonial History: she refuses to choose between multiple identities, not wanting to sell offone in exchange for another. The search for an im/possible agreement thus emerges as thepreferred metaphor characterizing her struggles and her writing

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the continuance of the MeToo movement in the Swedish context via the digitalplatform Instagram, collective action and feminist organizations that are engaged to end sexual violence.It illuminates how the sisterhood impacted by the practice of challenging the rape script a conceptused to describe the discourse on how sexual violence should be like, and how victim-survivors should behave, how the engagement is made among the activists that engage to challenge the rape script and lastly, how since the MeToo movement started a discourse of rightlessness have been exposed through the sharing of experiences that the MeToo movement initiated. The ethnographic study is based on participant observation of feminist actions in real life and on Instagram as well as interviews with 13 activists from feminist organizations and with background as organisers of collective actions. It is found that the MeToo movement in Sweden is commonly practiced through an engagement in Feminist organizations that serve to keep the movement alive through continuous work to keep sexual violence on the agenda by keeping it visible, and that the engagement is driven by an experience of anger towards the societal discourse that sets the discourse on rape which affects the possibility to be recognized by the legal system. The thesis will overall suggest that there is a sisterhood built on a collective identity, and that the shared identity and oppression between non-men with an aspiration to support one another in the experience of oppression as well as organize safety nets for those who are sentenced for defamation as a consequence of speaking out.

Abstract:
Dans cette recherche, nous examinons l'effet de la justice interpersonnelle du groupe de travail sur les comportements innovants. D'abord, nous nous interrogeons sur le rôle médiateur joué par l'identification au groupe dans cette relation au niveau individuel d'analyse. Ensuite, nous examinons le rôle modérateur de la réflexivité sur ce mécanisme de médiation au même niveau d'analyse. Enfin, nous nous interrogeons sur le rôle de l'identification au groupe et l'engagement collectif au travail comme médiateurs en série des effets de la justice interpersonnelle du groupe sur les comportements innovants au niveau du groupe d'analyse sous l'angle des climats de justice. Deux études ont été menées afin de tester notre modèle. La première étude a été menée auprès de 204 employés d'hôpitaux tunisiens. Ses résultats montrent que l'effet indirect de la justice interpersonnelle du groupe de travail sur les comportements innovants, à travers l'identification au groupe, sera modéré par la réflexivité du groupe. La deuxième étude a été menée auprès de 528 étudiants regroupés dans 114 groupes de travail. Les données de cette étude ont été testées en utilisant une approche de modélisation multi niveaux par équations structurelles. Ses résultats montrent l'impact du climat de justice interpersonnelle du groupe sur les comportements individuels innovants à travers l'identification au groupe et l'engagement collectif au travail. Les implications théoriques et pratiques seront discutées
In this research, we examine the effect of the interpersonal justice of the working group on innovative behaviors. First, we question the mediating role played by group identification in this relationship at the individual level of analysis. Next, we examine the moderating role of reflexivity on this mediation mechanism at the same level of analysis. Finally, we question the role of group identification and collective engagement at work as serial mediators of the effects of group interpersonal justice on innovative behaviors at the level of the analysis group in terms of climates of justice. Two studies were conducted to test our model. The first study was conducted among 204 Tunisian hospital employees. His results show that the indirect effect of the interpersonal justice of the working group on innovative behaviors, through identification with the group, will be moderated by the group's reflexivity. The second study was conducted with 528 students in 114 working groups. The data from this study were tested using a multi-level structural equation modeling approach. His results show the impact of the group's interpersonal justice climate on innovative individual behaviors through group identification and collective engagement at work. Theoretical and practical implications will be discussed

Abstract:
I denna uppsats redovisas en studie av hur svenska idrottsföreningar på landsbygden påverkas av de samhällsförändringar som intåget i det postmoderna samhället har medfört. Det studerade datamaterialet har samlats in genom kvalitativa intervjuer och därefter analyserats genom forskningsmetoden grundad teori. De informanter som deltagit i studien är alla själva verksamma inom idrottsklubbar på små orter, och denna uppsats ger en inblick i deras erfarenheter som förhoppningsvis kan bidra till en ökad kunskap om hur svenska idrottsföreningar på landsbygden kan komma att utvecklas inom de närmaste åren. Resultaten avslöjar att de studerade föreningarna upplever stora problem vid rekryteringen av såväl nya medlemmar som ideellt engagerade tränare och styrelseledamöter. Dessutom påvisar studien en pågående konflikt mellan stad och landsbygd som i synnerhet berör resursfördelning och politisk prioritering.
In this thesis, a study of how Swedish sports associations in rural areas are affected by the societal changes which the advent of the post-modern society has brought is declared. The studied data has been collected through qualitative interviews and thenceforth analyzed through the research method grounded theory. The informants who have participated in the study are all active in sports clubs in small villages themselves, and this thesis provides an insight in their experiences which hopefully can contribute to an increased knowledge about how Swedish sports associations in rural areas may develop in the next few years. The results reveal that the studied sports clubs experience severe problems in the recruitment of new members as well as voluntary trainers and members of the board. Moreover, the study proves an ongoing conflict between urban and rural areas which in particular concerns allocation of resources and political priority.

Abstract:
Det kan idag vara svårt för företag att engagera sin publik på grund av allt innehåll som ständigtpubliceras. Transmedialt berättande har kommit att bli ett begrepp som tillåter publik attinteragera med innehållet och sprida det vidare. Konceptet har kommit att bli ettmarknadsföringsverktyg för att det tillåter att kunna interagera med målgrupp och sprida ettföretags information.Tidigare exempel på transmedialt berättande appliceras i huvudsak på större företag ochproduktioner. Syftet med studien är därför att utforska transmedialt berättande sommarknadsföringsverktyg för mindre verksamheter. Detta sker genom att praktiskt utforma enkampanj tillsammans med STPLN där STPLN står som exempel för hur detta kan appliceras påen mindre verksamhet.Studien har använt sig av två kvalitativa metoder - deltagande design ochfokusgruppsintervjuer. Deltagande design är studiens primära datainsamlingsmetod och haranvänts för att låta STPLN vara en del av arbetsprocessen då dessa besitter kunskap som är avvärde för utformningen av kampanjen. Utformningsarbetet har genomförts med hjälp av bådaparternas expertis, STPLN och författarna till studien. Fokusgrupperna med berörd målgrupputvärderade det praktiska arbetet.Resultatet av studien visar på att den transmedialt berättande kampanjen för STPLN börutformas utifrån aktivt deltagande, kollektiv intelligens, interaktion och platsspecifiktberättande. Detta kan i sin tur generera spridning i och med att det tillåter användaren att varaden indirekta marknadsföraren för kampanjen.
Today it is difficult for companies to engage the audience due to the content that is constantlybeing published. Transmedia storytelling allows the user to interact with the content and to passit through. The concept has become an effective marketing tool to interact with the target groupand to spread a companys’ information.Previous examples of transmedia storytelling are mainly applied on enterprises and largeproductions. Thus, the purpose is to explore transmedia storytelling as a marketing tool forsmaller organizations. It happens by practically designing a campaign together with STPLNwhere STPLN stand as an example of how it can be applied to a smaller organization.The thesis has used two qualitative methods - participatory design and focus groups.Participatory design is the primary method and has been used to include STPLN in the processdue to their knowledge which is of value for the campaign. The practical work has beenimplemented by the expertise from both parties, the organization and the authors of the thesis.The target group then evaluated the practical work through two focus groups.The result indicates that the transmedia storytelling campaign for STPLN should be designedbased on the aspects of active participation, collective intelligence, interaction and site specificstorytelling. Subsequently this may generate in spreadability of the campaign since it allows theuser to be its indirect marketer.

Abstract:
Few countries can boast of having the culture of volunteering seen in the United States. In explaining this phenomenon, many empirical studies have found religiosity significant in predicting volunteering behaviors among young adults, adults, and the elderly. However, teens (13 – 17 years) have not attracted much attention from researchers, though they possess the time and resources most needed to volunteer. Using data from the National Study on Youth and Religion (NSYR) Wave 1, this study examines the relationship between volunteering and teens’ private (religious salience and religious experience) and collective religiosity (religious tradition, church attendance, and youth group participation). Parental variables and teen demographics are also tested using a three-stage ordinal logistic regression. Regarding individual religiosity, the results suggested a significant relationship between teens’ religious experiences and volunteering. In addition, parents can induce volunteering by encouraging their teens to volunteer and participate in religious youth groups.

Abstract:
Cette recherche doctorale s’inscrit dans le cadre du programme Médias et mobilisations en Corse de 1945 à nos jours (https://sites.ina.fr/mobilisations-en-corse). Ce corpus d’archives audiovisuelles constitue pour cette recherche un fil diachronique de moments clefs s’articulant autour des principales mobilisations collectives en Corse contemporaine. L’image est une passerelle de l’histoire, construite et reconstruite par et pour le pouvoir présent. Les temps forts sont ici considérés non pour ce qu’ils sont mais pour ce qu’ils disent, du sens qui leur sont donnés quant à leur faculté à tisser des liens entre les membres d’une société s’élevant face à une crise de la contemporanéité. Il s’agit de chercher à savoir dans quelle mesure les processus à l’œuvre au sein des mobilisations collectives permettent de concevoir les formes d’engagement comme un objet communicationnel à part entière. Par ailleurs, nous tentons de fournir un modèle théorique et méthodologique par le prisme du lien microstructure interactionnelle et macrostrure sociale en privilégiant une approche anthropologique de la communication. La communication est appréhendée par un modèle orchestral. Une importance est donc accordée à la manière dont les liens entre les individus sont formés et réactivés. L’idée phare de ce travail est de considérer la mobilisation collective comme un rite de passage au sein duquel les membres du groupe forment et réaffirment un sens commun, des croyances, des normes, des valeurs : en soi, un sentiment de solidarité et d’appartenance. D’une situation perçue par l’individu comme incertaine à la remise en question de ses cadres d’interprétation, l’expérience des problèmes publics s’articule sur l’île par le fait social total de dispositif du proche. La mobilisation collective est faite d’étapes, accompagne les individus dans leur processus de réparation et de réinstauration d’un équilibre rompu par un changement dont ils font l’expérience émotionnelle. Ce rite de passage se compose de rassemblements sociaux : des micromobilisations collectives régies en miroir par des mécanismes analogues aux cérémonies religieuses. Les participants produisent une performance, inhérente à une stratégie de visibilité et de reconnaissance. Traditionnellement, un leader apparaît : il doit à la fois manier l’art de gouverner et celui de se mettre en scène. L’enjeu réside dans cette possibilité d’incarner un Corps mortel et un Corps politique. Les formes matérielles d’engagement se présentent sous l’angle du dispositif. Dès lors, l’occupation systématique de la scène médiatique par les acteurs des mobilisations collectives à partir des années 1970 met au jour de nouvelles formes d’engagement. Dans un effet interrelationnel, les formes sociales et mentales se trouvent soumises à un basculement. Par ce revival de l’expérience collective, la caméra transforme l’expérience militante. Les relations complexes entretenues avec les tutelles et le pouvoir exercé sur la population marquent l’île à travers le temps. Progressivement, l’enracinement et le déracinement deviennent des éléments constitutifs d’un ethnoscape. Il suscite l’engagement de Corses vivant l’expérience de l’exil et la circulation d’un imaginaire collectif
This doctoral research is part of the Médias et mobilisations en Corse de 1945 à nos jours (https://sites.ina.fr/mobilisations-en-corse). This corpus of audiovisual archives constitutes for this research a diachronic thread of key moments articulated around the main collective mobilizations in contemporary Corsica. The image is a bridge to history, constructed and reconstructed by and for the present power. The highlights are considered here not for what they are but for what they say about the meaning given to them in terms of their ability to weave links between the members of a society rising up against a crisis of contemporaneity. The aim is to find out to what extent the processes at work within collective mobilisations make it possible to conceive of forms of engagement as a communicative object in their own right. Furthermore, we attempt to provide a theoretical and methodological model through the prism of the link between interactional microstructure and social macrostructure by favouring an anthropological approach to communication. Communication is approached through an orchestral model. Importance is thus given to the way in which links between individuals are formed and reactivated. The main idea of this work is to consider collective mobilisation as a rite of passage in which group members form and reaffirm a common meaning, beliefs, norms, values: in itself, a feeling of solidarity and belonging. From a situation perceived by the individual as uncertain to the questioning of his or her frames of interpretation, the experience of public problems is articulated on the island by the total social fact of the device of the close one. Collective mobilisation is made up of stages, accompanying individuals in their process of repair and reinstatement of a balance broken by a change they experience emotionally. This rite of passage is made up of social gatherings: collective micro-mobilisations governed by mechanisms similar to religious ceremonies. The participants produce a performance, inherent in a strategy of visibility and recognition. Traditionally, a leader appears: he or she must master both the art of governing and the art of performing. The challenge lies in the possibility of embodying a mortal Body and a political Body. The material forms of engagement are presented in terms of the device. From then on, the systematic occupation of the media scene by the actors of collective mobilisations from the 1970s onwards brings new forms of involvement to light. In an interrelated effect, social and mental forms are subject to a shift. Through this revival of the collective experience, the camera transforms the militant experience. The complex relations with the tutelage and the power exercised over the population mark the island through time. Gradually, rootedness and uprootedness become constitutive elements of an ethnoscape. It gives rise to the involvement of Corsicans living the experience of exile and the circulation of a collective imaginary

Abstract:
Since the COVID-19 outbreak, countless studies have been conducted about the pandemic regarding people's physical and mental health, but there is a significant gap on the persistent effects on consumer behaviour. Hence, this thesis aimed to investigate if there is a relationship between the social constraints as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the potential increased engagement of post-purchase behaviour. The research focused exclusively on Swedish female millennials who are active social media users.    The research used a deductive approach by formulating hypotheses based on already existing theories. The explanatory design was used when aiming to investigate a causal relationship between two variables, i.e., prior to the pandemic compared to today. Further, a quantitative strategy was used by collecting primary data through a questionnaire, which thereafter was analysed through SPSS, using the paired sample t-test. To target the desired sample a convenience sampling method was used which collected a total of 226 respondents, with 197 valid participants. The sample was collected through several Facebook groups, combined with the utilizing of the authors own social media channels. Since this study aimed to measure engagement, the key concepts were converted in the survey questions to more specific terms, by a modified existing scale. Indicators were established to be able to measure the engagement under controlled conditions.   Furthermore, the results from the statistical tests resulted in a p-value to confirm or reject the null hypothesis, followed by a correlation coefficient value to determine the strength of the relationship. The empirical findings combined indicated significant evidence that because of the social constraints since the COVID-19 outbreak, there has been an increased engagement in the post-purchase behaviour on social media for Swedish female millennials. This was confirmed through a p-value of 0.000 in the t-tests for all seven hypotheses. Furthermore, all tests show correlation values between 0.449 and 0.617, which means that all the existing relationships are positive.    This means that during the period when COVID-19 has been an active societal problem with all its effects, the new living conditions have entailed an increased involvement in post-purchase behaviour on social media for Swedish female millennials. If corporations take these changed behaviours in consideration and adapt the marketing strategy accordingly, it  can contribute to increased sales as the credibility of the brand gets strengthened through the transparency that the customer base values.

Abstract:
La thèse aborde les processus de politisation de la minorité copte orthodoxe en Égypte. Ce cas illustre la question du communautarisme comme mode d'énonciation du politique, autrement dit, comme un bouclier de défense auquel les coptes ont eu recours pour lutter et survivre dans le cadre de l'autoritarisme républicain en Égypte. Dans cette perspective, nous proposons d'observer les différentes formes que prend le communautarisme copte, étroitement liées aux bouleversements qui marquent le champ politique égyptien. Elles sont conçues comme une réaction de la communauté à l'autoritarisme égyptien. Elles sont conçues comme une construction provenant des dynamiques des rapports entre le clergé et le pouvoir et une résultante des dynamiques intra-communautaires et inter- communautaires. Il s'agit de noter le souci d'une hiérarchie cléricale visant à répondre aux aspirations des fidèles marginalisés au niveau national, et dominés par son clergé au niveau communautaire. Cette thèse étudie la fragmentation communautaire, résultante des failles des équilibres entre l'Église et les autorités publiques, ce qui a permis l'émergence d'autres voies de mobilisation des acteurs coptes politisés. L'attention est portée sur les coptes profanes, longtemps ignorés et qui font leur entrée sur scène avec le Printemps Arabe. Ils proviennent des univers sociaux strictement contrôlés par l'Église et le régime en place et c'est l'imbrication de leurs divers processus de socialisation qui nous permet d'appréhender leur engagement différencié, ainsi que les bouleversements intra-communautaires provoqués par ces nouveaux entrants dans l'espace communautaire et l'espace public égyptien
The thesis addresses the process of politicization of the Coptic Orthodox minority in Egypt. This case illustrates the issue of communitarianism as a mode of enunciation of politics, in other words, as a shield of defense to which the Copts resorted to struggle and survive within the framework of republican authoritarianism in Egypt. ln this perspective, we propose to observe the different forms taken by the Coptic community, closely related to the upheavals that mark the Egyptian political field. They are conceived as a reaction of the community to Egyptian authoritarianism. They are conceived as a construction resulting from the dynamics of the relations between the clergy and the political regime and a resultant of intra-community and inter-community dynamics. It is important to note the concern of a clerical hierarchy to respond to the aspirations of the marginalized Copts at the national level, and dominated by its clergy at the community level. This thesis studies community fragmentation, resulting from the flaws in the equilibrium between the Church and the public authorities, which allowed the emergence of other Coptic politicized paths and actors. Attention is paid to the secular Copts, who seem to launch their engagement with the Arab Spring. They come from social worlds strictly controlled by the Church and the State and it is the interweaving of their various processes of socialization that allows us to understand their engagement and activism as well as the intra-community upheavals caused by these new entrants in the community space as well as the Egyptian public space
