Abstract:
Chinese North-western Zone designates the border areas of Northern China, including Xinjiang, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi and Shanxi, inhabited by semi-nomadic and nomadic groups in prehistoric times. The term denotes a broad geographic horizon conceivable as a multitude of cultural phenomena sharing a common material 'language', yet inferences on ethnic affiliation have been hitherto poorly grounded and difficult to ascertain. This work attempts to clarify some of the cultural phenomena occurred in the area, through a contextualised analysis of the available archaeological material. A methodological framework placing proto-historical material culture into 'context' is first enunciated and then employed in the investigation of various aspects of material expression belonging to different 'cultural horizons', from Siba-Huoshaogou, Yanbulake, Zhukaigou, Shajing and Chawuhu, to Alagou, Yanglang and Ordos. The data thus exposed provide clues on funerary behaviour, on patterns of consumption and social constructs, on stylistic and typological variation in ceramic productions, on metals and their social role, on craft specialisations and artistic expressions. Not only bronze and pottery objects are analysed from the stylistic and - when possible - the technological point of view, but also their relationship with 'alternative' types of material evidence (such as various perishable media) and with the contingent space are considered. Attention is further devoted to artefactual productions, ranging from bronze and iron casting to gold and silver metal-smithing. In the absence of contemporary written sources, the bulk of information comes primarily from archaeological reports. Yet manifold are the lines of evidence gathered. All these elements eventually contribute not only to discriminate similar modes of social negotiation such as gender and authority, indirectly reflecting expressions of ethnical affiliation, but also to assess both the degree of conscious cultural interaction and the extent of demic diffusion between Central Asia, Southern Siberia and China during the 2nd and 1st millennia BCE.

Abstract:
Culture is a hugely important process in the evolution of humans and many non-human animals. Through the formation of long lasting traditions, culture provides an extragenetic inheritance mechanism that can facilitate rapid behavioural adaptation to novel environments. This can ultimately alter the selection pressures acting on different phenotypes including those that underlie cultural transmission itself, i.e. the mechanisms of social learning. Understanding culture poses many challenges for researchers due to the complex nature of interacting biological processes at multiple organisational and temporal scales. In this thesis I investigate some of these complexities through the integration of different theoretical and statistical modelling approaches, and argue that rich models are particularly important for the study of culture. In chapters 3 & 4 I use an evolutionary agent-based model to study the functional value and cultural significance of strategically copying from other individuals based on particular cues, such as age or payoff. I find that a bias to copy the successful can provide substantial adaptive advantages, potentially outweighing other strategic considerations such as when to engage in social learning. I also demonstrate that the strength of selection on social learning strategies is closely linked to the cultural diversity within a population. In chapters 5 & 6 I study the mechanisms of learning and how social influences can impact decision making. In chapter 5 I model the behaviour of nursery children and chimpanzee groups when solving a complex task and identify clear species differences in the importance of different forms of learning on decision making. Finally, in chapter 6 I use an agent-based model to examine the influence of population structure on the spread of novel behaviour. I demonstrate that, contrary to infectious disease type models, when learning occurs through operant conditioning, highly clustered network structures promote cultural transmission rather than hinder it.

Abstract:
El objetivo de la presente investigación, consiste en evaluar el impacto del diseño de información, como medio de difusión, en las agendas culturales limeñas. Por lo cual, se debe de examinar el nivel de eficiencia comunicativa de la información y analizar la estrategia de difusión que tiene. Lo que conlleva a que la implementación de los principios del diseño de información en donde prima la eficiencia comunicativa y su utilidad, contribuya a la mejora en el acceso de contenido y comprensión del teatro como actividad cultural de Lima. Este trabajo tiene como finalidad examinar si las agendas culturales limeñas presentan información eficiente sobre el teatro y cuentan con un diseño de información que facilite al lector la obtención y comprensión de la información presentada. Por ello, se llevará a cabo una investigación mixta, en donde se analizarán las agendas culturales limeñas, entrevistar a expertos y desarrollar encuestas. Los resultados de la investigación establecen que siete de los nueve medios de difusión analizados no implementan correctamente los principios del diseño de información. Ello provoca que el acceso y comprensión del contenido no sea efectivo en el lector meta. Gracias a ello se puede concluir que al no aplicar el diseño de información, el nivel de eficiencia comunicativa de las agendas culturales como estrategias de difusión del teatro limeño no brinda el contenido necesario para asistir a una actividad cultural.
The objective of this research is to evaluate the impact of information design, as a means of dissemination, in Lima's cultural agendas. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the level of communicative efficiency of the information and analyze the dissemination strategy it has. This means that the implementation of the principles of information design contributes to improve the access to the content and understanding of theatre as a cultural activity in Lima. The purpose of this work is to examine, if Lima's cultural agendas, present efficient information about the theatre and have an information design that facilitates the reader's understanding. For this reason, a mixed research will be carried out, in which the Lima cultural agendas will be analyzed, experts will be interviewed and field research will be developed. The results of the research establish that seven of the nine media analyzed do not correctly implement the principles of information design. This means that access to and understanding of the content isn't effective for the target reader. Therefore, it can be concluded that by not applying the information design, the level of communicative efficiency of the cultural agendas as strategies of diffusion of the Lima theater, don´t provide necessary content to attend a theatrical presentation. Consequently, there is a low influx in the performing of cultural activities.

Abstract:
This thesis considers cultural diffusion in the context of oriental carpets. Geometrical symmetry and its classification are an important feature. Literature review covers a wide range of relevant concepts from the disciplines of anthropology, sociology and psychology and includes consideration of aspects from the work of Boas [1938, 1940, 1948], Burton [1992], Levi-Strauss [1963], Jung [1959] and Koffka [1935]. The published work of Woods [1935, 1936], Washburn and Crowe [1988], and Hann [1991, 1992], from the area of geometrical symmetry and its classification, is also considered in some detail and further conceptual development proposed, including a range of concepts relating to the classification of two-colour counterchange patterns. The principle emphasis in the research is on the analysis of patterns and motifs with respect to their symmetry characteristics. Data were collected from 1,000 Persian and Anatolian carpets, and similarities and differences are highlighted. Case studies are presented of the Pazyryk carpet (the oldest known complete pile-woven carpet, held in the Hermitage Museum, St.Petersburg) and the Ardabil carpets (the only dated pair of Safavid carpets, one held in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the other in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles). The geometrical characteristics of each carpet are examined, compared to the results of the larger survey of Persian and Anatolian carpets, and a discussion is developed relating to cultural diffusion.

Abstract:
Cultural evolutionary models that relate spatial and temporal patterning in artifact sequences to human social learning processes and history have made many recent advances. Specifically, these models connect evolutionary forces and social leaning mechanisms along cultural pathways with expectations that can be assessed using material culture. In this dissertation, I use an historical archaeology case study of carved New England gravestones to evaluate three different aspects of cultural transmission and artifact patterns. First, I study the role of social network structure in the transmission of cultural information among carvers organized in workshops that were principally comprised of a carver and his apprentices. The results of this study suggest that the motifs reflect widespread similarity that transcends workshop organization. However, the finer grained decorative elements that make up these motifs correspond with cultural lineages of gravestone carvers. Second, I examine the relationship between the diffusion of innovations and cultural transmission mechanisms that result in spatiotemporal patterning. The spatial patterning suggests that social contagion among consumers created brief instances of wave-like diffusion from a distinct workshop, highlighting the role of consumer choice. A review of probate payments shows that gravestones were rarely purchased from distance sources, as transport costs could be prohibitive. The spatial patterning and historic record suggest that carvers also learned from other carvers creating a hierarchical diffusion process. These two populations created a feedback mechanism that leads to complex emergent phenomena, as illustrated by the rapid and widespread adoption of the cherub motif. Third, the neutral model of stylistic variation is applied to gravestone data to examine the ways that increased consumption and an expanding carving industry led to dominant decorative motifs. This study shows that neutrality can be a fleeting and transitional state between the dominance of single decorative styles. These three studies use New England gravestones to illustrate the evolutionary forces and cultural transmission mechanisms among artifact producers and consumers, which generated the stylistic patterning we observe in the archaeological record.

Resumo: Esta pesquisa levantou a produção cultural argentina durante o governo de Juan Domingo Perón (1946-1955). O estudo indicou a existência de uma expressiva produção cultural alinhada com o peronismo, resultado de uma política cultural do governo. Entretanto, essa política cultural não prevaleceu na produção cultural do período. ascensão de Perón não impediu o reconhecimento de escritores antiperonistas como Borges, Bioy Casares, Victoria Ocampo e Julio Cortázar, dentre outros, ligados à tradição liberal argentina. Além disso, entre os próprios peronistas, as propostas culturais do governo provocaram divergências quanto à centralidade do nacionalismo, à formação que deveria ser dada aos setores populares e ao legado da tradição liberal.
Abstract: This research investigated Argentina's cultural output during the government of Juan Domingo Perón (1946-1955). The study identified the existence of substantial cultural output aligned with Peronism as a result of the government's cultural policies. However, these policies did not completely direct the country's cultural production during this period. For instance, Perón's rise to power did not prevent recognition of antiperonist writers such as Borges, Bioy Casares, Victoria Ocampo, and Julio Cortázar, among others, who represented Argentina's liberal tradition. In addition, the government's cultural proposals led to meaningful disagreements among the Peronists themselves over the centrality of nationalism, the training proffered to the population at large, and the legacy of the liberal tradition.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 75-84).
Across the globe more than 33 million people are believed to be infected with HIV/AIDS. The majority of these cases are in sub-Saharan Africa. Now that biomedical causes and behavioural risks are firmly established in the literature, social scientists must attempt to understand the underlying cultural foundations that may account for behavioural change, or a lack of change. This work is an empirical study into cultural explanations for HIV diffusion since the year 2000. Its main goal is to inform attempts to create more effective prevention programs and policy. This study utilizes a database constructed from interviews with ordinary citizens in five sub-Saharan African countries surveyed during the 2000 wave of the World Values Survey (WVS), and various health and demographic information sources. Eight thousand interviews were aggregated into thirty-one regional units for the analysis. Cultural values obtained from the WVS were compared with changes in HIV prevalence rates from 2000 to 2005 (HIV diffusion). The study focuses on three aspects of culture: female disempowerment, levels of social capital, and religiosity. Each of these broad concepts was dissected into at least three sub-concepts using data reduction methods. The relationship between these sub-concepts and HIV diffusion were compared before and after controls for education, poverty and urbanization were utilized. Based on these correlations, culture appears to be important to understanding HIV diffusion. However, its effects are not consistent. Broadly, two conclusions can be drawn from the data. First, cultural impacts vary by country. Programs based on each country's cultural dynamics will likely have more success than continent wide programs. Culture has stronger correlations with HIV diffusion in countries with smaller epidemics. Secondly, the data shows no clear relationship between different religious denominations and HIV diffusion. In addition, the correlations that exist between HIV diffusion and religiosity all show that increased religiosity leads to more diffusion. Therefore, international aid programs should avoid using religious doctrine and religious organizations as ways to enact sexual behaviour modification and reduce the spread of HIV. By creating secular, country specific programs international aid agencies can help counteract the cultural norms that appear to increase HIV diffusion.

Abstract:
For some time now, social scientists, literary critics and others who have examined socio-political developments characterised by intercultural interaction (e.g. colonialism or globalisation), have emphasised the creative, transformative and hybrid character of the space 'in-between' (e.g. Bhabha 1994; Young 1995). Even though 'hybridity discourses' have principally explored spheres of intercultural interaction in order to dismantle traditional binary oppositions used in colonial studies, or to describe the subtleties of our contemporary globalised environment, they have also raised awareness of the need to integrate such insights into accounts that explore and theorise a range of social phenomena (e.g. Nederveen Pieterse 2009). Whilst this integration has taken place in the wider context of the social sciences, scant attention has been given within the reflective arena of post-processualism to devising theoretical approaches which allow for analyses either of the space 'in-between' or the 'multivoicedness' (Bakhtin 1981) of material culture (for an exception see Fahlander 2007). This thesis seeks to define the theoretical as well as methodological strategies needed to incorporate the notion of 'hybridity' into the post-processual discourse. Although the effects of hybridity can take various forms (e.g. linguistics, culture, politics, religion) (Ashcroft et al. 1998), our possibilities for exploring this concept in archaeology amount to identifying the effects of hybridity on the realm of material culture. This research focuses on developing a theoretical and methodological approach that allows intercultural interaction to be examined through the identification of material patterning. To do so, the notion of 'diffusion' is reconsidered as an analytical concept in archaeology. This thesis then draws upon this approach to explore developments within the Orcadian Neolithic during the later fourth millennium BC. As a period of structural change in the islands, it has been the breeding ground for the development of various differing approaches to interpretation (e.g. Renfrew 1979b, Hodder 1982a; Sharples 1985). On this occasion, I will argue that this period represented a classic example of the formation of hybrid identities. Whilst a self-unified image of society was sought in these islands during this period, it is suggested that the cultural expressions used to depict identity reflected intercultural interaction with the Boyne Valley (Ireland).

Abstract:
There is something unique about human culture. Its complex technologies, customs, institutions, symbolisms and norms, which are shared and maintained and improved across countless generations, are what sets it apart from the ‘cultures' of other animals. The fundamental question that researchers are only just beginning to unravel is: How do we account for the gap between their ‘cultures' and ours? The answer lies in a deeper understanding of culture's complex constituent components: from the micro-level psychological mechanisms that guide and facilitate accurate social learning, to the macro-level cultural processes that unfold within large-scale cooperative groups. This thesis attempts to contribute to two broad themes that are of relevance to this question. The first theme involves the evolution of accurate and high-fidelity cultural transmission. In Chapter 2, a meta-analysis conducted across primate social learning studies finds support for the common assumption that imitative and/or emulative learning mechanisms are required for the high-fidelity transmission of complex instrumental cultural goals. Chapter 3, adopting an experimental study with young children, then questions the claim that mechanisms of high-fidelity copying have reached such heights in our own species that they will even lead us to blindly copy irrelevant, and potentially costly, information. The second theme involves investigations of the mutually reinforcing relationship predicted between cultural complexity and ultra-cooperativeness in humans, employing a series of laboratory-based experimental investigations with adults. Chapter 4 finds only limited support for a positive relationship between cooperative behaviour and behavioural imitation, which is believed to facilitate cultural group cohesion. Finally, Chapter 5 presents evidence suggesting that access to cultural information is positively associated with an individual's cooperative reputation, and argues that this dynamic might help to scaffold the evolution of increased cultural complexity and cooperation in a learning environment where cultural information carries high value.

Abstract:
Diffusionsprozesse im Zusammenhang von Unternehmenskonzepten sind eine Facette der Globalisierung, an der die Wechselbeziehung von globalen und lokalen Kulturelementen verdeutlicht werden kann. Dabei geht es um die Identifizierung der Akteure, die diesen Diffusionsprozeß aktiv bestimmen, und um die Ermittlung des Verlaufs des Prozesses der institutionellen und kulturellen Aneignung und deren Folgen. Die interkulturelle Verbreitung von Prinzipien und Konzepten der Unternehmensführung und Geschäftsgebarung wird als Ausdruck und Resultat von Ideologien, Strategien und Aktionen transnationaler, aber dennoch kulturell eingebetteter Akteure verstanden. Als theoretische Perspektive wird ein Ansatz vorgeschlagen, der es erlaubt, sowohl Aktionen als auch Strukturen zu berücksichtigen. Dieser Anforderung kommt etwa die politisch- kulturelle Perspektive, wie sie Neil Fligstein im Rahmen der neuen Wirtschaftssoziologie anwendet, sehr entgegen. Bei Fligstein bezieht sich die politische Dimension in erster Linie auf das Staatshandeln; dies muß für die gegenständliche Untersuchung auf inter- und transnationale Akteure erweitert werden. Die Diffusion konkreter Unternehmenskonzepte wird aus dieser Sicht als politischer, von kollektiven Akteuren bestimmter, sowie als kultureller Prozeß verstanden. Macht und Legitimität sind die Instrumente oder Medien, die ihn bestimmen. Die Macht und der Einfluß der Akteure bei der Verbreitung dieser Konzepte, wobei sowohl Unternehmen als auch Staaten eine Rolle spielen, und die Bedingungen der Legitimität, also die Voraussetzungen, die für die Akzeptanz dieser Konzepte auch bei Arbeitnehmern, Konsumenten, Zulieferern, etc. und in der Öffentlichkeit verantwortlich sind, stellen die Objektbereiche einer derartigen Untersuchung dar. Die Übernahme von Unternehmenskonzepten resultiert in Handlungsweisen und Entscheidungsprinzipien, die über die Wirtschaftspraxis auch in institutionellen Strukturen ihren Niederschlag finden, und die darüber hinaus Vorstellungen und Rhetoriken und damit auch kulturelle Strukturen verändern. Ist ein Unternehmenskonzept einmal eingeführt, führt es zu strukturellen und institutionellen Veränderungen, die seine Legitimität über die jeweiligen Unternehmensgrenzen hinaus begründen.

Abstract:
This study presents a quantitative study that aims to examine culture as an explanation for the global diffusion of truth commissions. The study is based on the diffusion theory's assumption that cultural equality between countries has a greater significance for the dissemination of truth commissions than geographical proximity. The study will, through a quantitative multivariate analysis, examine correlations between Hofstede's cultural dimensions as the study's theoretical framework and countries that establish truth commissions. The results shows that cultural similarity as an explanation for the spread of truth commissions can be considered better than previous theoretical assumptions. In addition, the results of this study shows that two of Hofstede's cultural dimensions correlate with the establishment of truth commissions. These are long- vs. short-term orientation and indulgence vs restraint. Analysis of the results shows that countries that establish truth commissions have a shorter time orientation and a high degree of indulgence. Additionally, the thesis adds another dimension of the theory and a more in depth understanding of which cultural factors stand as responsible for the diffusion of truth commissions globally.

Abstract:
La tesis realizada analiza la oportunidad que tiene el patrimonio histórico y cultural de la Época de la Colonia para ponerlo en valor en Pachuca de Soto, incorporándolo como un elemento de atracción turística que permita conocerlo y disfrutarlo. El estudio tuvo como objetivos analizar la puesta en valor, analizar la importancia de los hechos históricos, identificar los bienes patrimoniales y definir su potencialidad turística. Desde una perspectiva cualitativa se solicitó a guías de turistas, autoridades municipales del sector turismo y cultura aportaran datos tanto de la actividad turística en la ciudad como del cuidado del patrimonio, a través de diferentes técnicas: a) entrevistas a autoridades y turistas en visitas in situ, b) consulta de base de datos y planes estatales; para contextualizar el tema del patrimonio y turismo cultural c) libros, artículos, publicaciones, revistas especializadas. El análisis FODA permitió crear un inventario y catálogo patrimonial, diagnosticar la situación actual del patrimonio y la posibilidad de su puesta en valor. Los resultados de éste estudio revelan que tal patrimonio requiere de la intervención inmediata del estado, en cuanto al rescate, uso adecuado y difusión con participación colectiva, ordenada, responsable y sustentable, basada en un Modelo dinamizador del patrimonio histórico y cultural. La investigación sustenta, entre otras implicaciones, la necesidad de crear conciencia en la población local de la valía del patrimonio, despertar el interés de las autoridades por rescatar y conservarlo, con la contribución del sector turismo, impactando el incremento del flujo y estadía de turistas. Algunas limitaciones en el camino: Proceso de transición del gobierno estatal y municipal, la veracidad de los datos proporcionados por las autoridades del ayuntamiento, escaza información del tema estudiado y tiempo limitado para profundizar en la investigación.
The thesis analyzes the opportunity of the historical and cultural heritage of the Epoch of the Colony to put it in value in Pachuca de Soto, incorporating it as an element of tourist attraction that allows knowing and enjoying it. The objective of the study was to analyze value, analyze the importance of historical events, identify patrimonial assets and define their tourism potential. From a qualitative perspective, tourists' guides, municipal authorities of the tourism and culture sector were asked to provide data on both tourist activity in the city and the care of the heritage, through different techniques: a) interviews with authorities and tourists in visits in Situ, b) consultation of database and state plans; To contextualize the theme of heritage and cultural tourism c) books, articles, publications, specialized magazines. The SWOT analysis allowed the creation of an inventory and patrimonial catalog, to diagnose the current situation of the patrimony and possibility of putting in value. The results of this study reveal that such heritage requires the immediate intervention of the state in terms of rescue, proper use and dissemination with collective, orderly, responsible and sustainable participation, based on a dynamic model of historical and cultural heritage. The research supports, among other implications, the need to raise awareness among the local population of the value of the heritage, to arouse the interest of the authorities to rescue and conserve it, with the contribution of the tourism sector, impacting the increase of the flow and stay of tourists. Limitations along the way: transition of state and municipal government, the veracity of the data provided by the authorities of the city, squeeze information from the subject studied and limited time to deepen the research.

Abstract:
Contrairement aux autres sports collectifs introduits en France dans la seconde moitié du XIXème siècle, le handball prend son essor en France durant l’entre-deux-guerres. Passant d’une pratique d’entraînement hivernal des athlètes, à une pratique professionnelle au début du XXIe siècle, notre objet de recherche cherche à expliquer les processus d’intégration et de diffusion de cette pratique en France, tant sur le plan géopolitique que technico-tactique. À partir d’une diversité de sources, (archives institutionnelles, témoignages de 25 acteurs, coupures de presse et périodiques handballistiques), trois perspectives sont envisagées (institutionnelle, sociale et culturelle), identifiant quatre étapes dans la construction du handball français. Après une première phase d’importation, grâce à deux vecteurs de diffusion principaux, le sport ouvrier et le sport scolaire, se situant à des échelles et des vitesses différentes, la FFHB est créée par le régime de Vichy, associé à quelques professeurs d’EP conquis par cette nouvelle activité de football à la main qui se pratique alors à 7 ou 11 joueurs. Puis, lorsque le handball à 7 devient majoritaire, sa représentation culturelle se transforme, passant d’une somme de techniques individuelles à maîtriser à la nécessité de prendre en considération les adversaires et les partenaires. Cette révolution est largement soutenue par la DTN dans les années 1960 et 1970, en lien avec les considérations scientifiques présentes en France et à l’étranger, pendant que Nelson Paillou conçoit la massification des licenciés et la structuration du système fédéral selon une logique amateur. La chute du bloc de l’Est et le choix des dirigeants et entraîneurs fédéraux, de privilégier le haut niveau contribuent aux premiers succès français tout en ouvrant l’ère de la marchandisation et de la spectacularisation à partir des années 1990. Néanmoins, à l’aube du XXIe siècle, le handball finit par s’abstraire des modèles étrangers et rejoint le développement des autres sports collectifs en professionnalisant ses structures et ses acteurs
Unlike the other team sports brought to France in the second half of the 19th century, handball thrived in France between the First and the Second World Wars. It has moved since then from a winter training practice to become a professional activity at the beginning of the 21st century. The objective of our research is to explain the integration and propagation processes of this sport, with geopolitical as well as technical and tactical considerations. A variety of sources have been investigated – institutional archives, testimonies of 25 stakeholders, press articles, periodicals about handball – with regards to three axis – institutional, social and cultural – ; four stages have been identified in the development of handball in France. The first phase is the importation of handball through two dissemination vectors that have different scales and paces: the sport of the working class and school sport. The Vichy government creates the FFHB, which is associated to a few Physical Education teachers that are captivated by this new activity – football played with hands in teams of 7 or 11 players. Then, when the handball is mainly played in teams of 7, its cultural representation changes: it goes from a superposition of individual technics to the need of taking into consideration teammates and opponents. This revolution is supported by the national technical direction in the 1960’s and 1970’s and is linked to the scientific thoughts in France and abroad ; meanwhile, Nelson Paillou makes handball available to the masses and structures the federal system with the objective to promote non professional handball. With the collapse of the communist bloc, federal managers and trainers choose to favour high-level sport and contribute to the first French successes. From the 1990’s, they also start developing the commercial aspect and the spectacle aspect of the sport. However, at the dawn of the 21st century, handball finally moves away from international models and follows the development of the other team sports with a more professional structure and stakeholders

This paper aspires to historisize the forms of the transmition of literary culture in Portuguese America during the second half of the XVI century, through the trajectory of the scholar Bento Teixeira. The difusion of the written and literary culture occurred at the time through the Jesuits School, first institution that was responsable to educate and form the scholars in the colonial society. Those schools pass by a organization during the five hundred years, period when the jesuits was just iniciating their education activties in Portuguese Amercia. However, part of that literary culture was transmited in the time society for other ways outside that institution. The transmition was made basically through individuals like Bento Teixeira, a scholar that once was a student in the Jesuit School and acquired his graduation in this intitution. With the knowledge he acquired, Bento promoted several literary practices in a circle of judaizers, and also in the time society. In the judaizer’s circle he made biblical translations from the latin, and oral readings of the bible, with the other groups, he taught them the written tecnology and latin grammar. With this we aim to built our analisys through the life trajectory of this Bento Teixeira, based, mostly in the documentation ensemble that arises from the Holy Office of the Inquisition- denunciations, confessions and criminal cases- also in jesuit documents and reports from XVI and XVII chroniclers. Through the trajectory of Bento Teixeira we intend to analyses the cultural practices that could define, in the specific context of XVI century, some subjects as scholars or man of letters.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo historicizar as formas de transmissão da cultura letrada na América portuguesa durante a segunda metade do século XVI, através da trajetória do letrado Bento Teixeira. A difusão da cultura escrita e letrada ocorria por meio dos Colégios Jesuítas, principais instituições responsáveis pela formação de letrados na sociedade colonial. Tais Colégios se encontravam em processo de estruturação durante os Quinhentos, seu momento inicial. Contudo, aspectos desta cultura letrada foram difundidos na sociedade da época através de um âmbito alternativo ao destas instituições formativas. A mediação exercida por sujeitos como Bento Teixeira, um letrado que obteve formação nos Colégios Jesuítas da Colônia, promoveu uma irradiação de práticas letradas em círculos de judaizantes, por meio de traduções bíblicas do latim e de leitura oralizada, e na sociedade de uma forma geral, a partir do seu ensino leigo da tecnologia escrita e da gramática latina. Utilizamos como recurso a trajetória de vida para construirmos este trabalho, com base principalmente na documentação inquisitorial – entre denúncias, confissões e processos –, na documentação jesuítica e no relato de cronistas dos séculos XVI e XVII. Através da trajetória de Bento Teixeira, pretendemos analisar as práticas culturais que poderiam definir os sujeitos como homens de letras no contexto específico do século XVI.

Abstract:
Focusing on migration from Guinea-Bissau to Portugal, this thesis examines the role played by food and plants that grow in Guinean land in connecting life-worlds in both places. Using a phenomenological approach to transnationalism and multi-sited ethnography, I explore different ways in which local experiences related to food production, consumption and exchange in the two countries, as well as local meanings of foods and plants, are connected at a transnational level. One of my key objectives is to deconstruct some of the binaries commonly addressed in the literature, such as global processes and local lives, modernity and tradition or competition and solidarity, and to demonstrate how they are all contextually and relationally entwined in people's life-worlds. In order to do so I trace Guinean foodstuffs and plants from their origin sites in Guinea-Bissau to their final destination in Portugal. I examine, first, the significance of the Guinean land where they grow. Second, I look at the adaptations that take place in Guineans' relationship with that land when it ‘travels' – through its food and plants – to Portugal. Third, I explore food-related ways in which the past, present and future of a Guinean life-world that is ‘disrupted' by migration are brought together through memory practices and future projects of migration and return. Finally, I examine practices of food exchange as gifts and trade across borders. By starting with production and ending with exchange practices, this thesis emphasises that both are not necessarily alienated from each other, even when they are physically distanced by migration. The unique relationships they generate and the role played by Guinean land's special properties, as well as the fact that these are able to travel, through the food and plants that share its substance, to Portugal, enable Guineans' local life-worlds to be connected in a transnational context.

Abstract:
This research aimed at promoting the diffusion of the Department of General Archives (DAG) from the Universidade Federal de Santa Maria using the elaboration of a selective photographic catalog as the strategy to meet this objective. The catalog was elaborated from the selection of ninety photographs which were representative of the UFSM University Campus construction in the period from 1960 to 1973. The theme choice reveals the importance of the modern urbanism style that characterizes the university campus and that is recorded in the selected photographs from the period that is the most representative of the campus major physical expansion. The elaboration of this research instrument implied in three different stages of study that were complementary of each other and carried out simultaneously: to determine a description instrument to the photographic archives from the analysis of the Brazilian Standard for Archival Description (Nobrade) and, the Model for Cataloging Photographic Collections (Sepiades); to collect information concerning the origin, production, accumulation and archival processing of the photographic heap; to make the catalog itself. The research was of an exploratory type, with a qualitative and descriptive approach and, aims to generate knowledge for practical application. The study carried out was exploratory, analytical and descriptive combined with the documental analysis in primary and secondary sources from the documents filed in the Institution and information collected in the literature. We also used the technique of semi-structured interviews and survey forms to make the archive diagnosis. The detailed study of Sepiades provided elements that did not recommended its application at the UFSM photographic archive; nevertheless, it supported the proposition of a set of metadata for the description of photographic archives. Besides that, the information about the photographers routine and daily life and, the construction of a photographic collection obtained from the point of view of the interviewed individuals, contributed to rescue part of the Institutional memory. Concluding, the selective photographic catalog becomes a diffusion instrument that meets the needs of the intern community as well as the needs of outside researchers who use the catalog and other documents that are made available by DAG. Furthermore, in the category of university archive, this department is, include, a repository of the Institutional administrative information, which is one of the aspects on the cultural heritage from the University, together with its architectonic heritage among others.
O objetivo desta pesquisa foi a difusão do Departamento de Arquivo Geral (DAG) da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM) adotando como estratégia a elaboração de um catálogo seletivo de fotografias. O catálogo foi elaborado a partir da seleção de noventa fotografias representativas da construção da Cidade Universitária da UFSM no período de 1960 a 1973. A opção pelo tema revela a importância do estilo de urbanismo moderno que caracteriza a arquitetura do campus da universidade e que está registrado nas fotografias selecionadas no período que é representativo da fase de maior expansão física do campus. A elaboração desse instrumento de pesquisa implicou em três etapas de estudo distintas, complementares entre si e simultaneamente realizadas: a) determinar um instrumento de descrição para arquivos fotográficos a partir da análise da Norma brasileira de descrição arquivística (Nobrade) e do Modelo para catalogação de coleções fotográficas (Sepiades); b) coletar informações referentes à origem, produção, acumulação e tratamento arquivístico do acervo fotográfico; c) confeccionar o catálogo propriamente dito. Esta pesquisa de natureza aplicada e de abordagem qualitativa é descritiva e visa gerar conhecimento para aplicação prática. O estudo realizado foi exploratório, analítico e descritivo, combinado com análise documental em fontes primárias e secundárias, a partir de documentos arquivados na instituição e informações colhidas na literatura. Também foi utilizada a técnica da entrevista semi-estruturada e formulário para diagnóstico de arquivo. O estudo detalhado da Sepiades apresentou elementos não recomendáveis para sua aplicação no arquivo fotográfico da UFSM, porém, subsidiou a proposição de um conjunto de metadados para a descrição de arquivos fotográficos. Além disso, as informações obtidas a respeito das rotinas e cotidiano dos fotógrafos e a formação do acervo fotográfico na visão dos entrevistados contribuíram para o resgate de uma parte da memória institucional. Para concluir, o catálogo seletivo de fotografias vem a ser um instrumento de difusão que atende a toda a comunidade interna além de pesquisadores externos que se utilizam deste e também de outros documentos disponibilizados pelo DAG. Ainda, na categoria de arquivo universitário, esse órgão constitui-se, também, em repositório da informação administrativa institucional, uma das facetas do patrimônio cultural da universidade ao lado do seu patrimônio arquitetônico, dentre outros.

Abstract:
Digital preservation is a significant challenge for cultural heritage institutions and other repositories of digital information resources. Recognizing the critical role of metadata in any successful digital preservation strategy, the Preservation Metadata Implementation Strategies (PREMIS) has been extremely influential on providing a "core" set of preservation metadata elements that support the digital preservation process. However, there is no evidence, in the form of previous research, as to what factors explain and predict the level of adoption of PREMIS. This research focused on identifying factors that affect the adoption of PREMIS in cultural heritage institutions. This study employed a web-based survey to collect data from 123 participants in 20 country as well as a semi-structured, follow-up telephone interview with a smaller sample of the survey respondents. Roger's diffusion of innovation theory was used as a theoretical framework. The main constructs considered for the study were relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, observability, and institution readiness. The study yielded both qualitative and quantitative data, and analysis showed that all six factors influence the adoption of PREMIS in varying degrees. Results of a regression analysis of adoption level on the six factors showed a statistically significant relationship. The R2 value for the model was .528, which means that 52.8% of the variance in PREMIS adoption was explained by a combination of the six factors. Considering the complexity of issue, this study has important implications for future research on preservation metadata and provides recommendations for researchers and stakeholders engaged in metadata standards development efforts.

Abstract:
This thesis studies the diffusion of architectural types and the rise of regionally distinct typologies in the Willamette Valley's settlement period (1840-1865) in Oregon. Using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to analyze the dispersion of architectural types within the Willamette Valley revealed trends amongst the extant settlement architecture samples. Brownsville, Oregon, was identified to have a locally-specific architectural subtype, the closer study of which enabled deeper investigation of the development of architectural landscapes during the Willamette Valley's settlement period. Field and archival research revealed that the appearance of an architectural subtype, at least in Brownsville, was not directly connected to a shared provenance of settlers but rather came about through a number of regionally-specific circumstances, especially an active local carpenter community.

Abstract:

In the latter half of the twentieth century and especially in the last twenty-five years, soccer has grown exponentially in the United States. Historically, the country has been lagging behind most of the world when it comes to adoption and diffusion of the sport; however, recent studies suggest that it has been a space of exceptionalism when incorporating the participation of women.

Studies on soccer from a geographic perspective are relatively isolated and demonstrate a tendency to favor male professional athletes. There is no similar research to examine the origins of female professional soccer players. This study will contribute to filling this identified gender gap in geographic sports studies. These previous studies on male professional athletes suggest that they can geographically originate from areas of lower socioeconomic standing. The findings from this study show a distinct contrast between male and female professional athlete origins.

Results reveal that the origins of most female professional players can be connected to suburbanized middle to upper middle class white communities close to major cities mainly in coastal regions. From a per capita perspective, the results also show that states in the West produce more players than states in the East. Socio-cultural perspectives explain these patterns, supporting a common hypothesis that most female professional soccer players in the USA are white and come from areas of relative affluence.

Au sortir de cette première décennie des années 2000, face aux bouleversements socioculturels, économiques et politiques au sein de la société ivoirienne post-crise en renouvellement, alors que les champs culturels sont traversés dans leur ensemble par toute une série de mutations économiques et sociales, esthétiques et anthropologiques, institutionnelles et politiques, le constat est profondément criant : les politiques publiques de la culture en Côte d’Ivoire et en Afrique en général sont en crise, elles sont dans l’impasse. Pour autant, quarante ans d’intervention et d’engagement des puissances publiques, des acteurs privés et des organisations non gouvernementales ont créé des synergies au service des arts et de la culture africaine. Aujourd’hui, même s’ils sont embryonnaires et souffrent de nombreuses carences, on ne peut nullement occulter l’importance, du point de vue économique et sociale, que recèlent les secteurs de la culture et des arts en Côte d’Ivoire
In this first decade of the 21st century, the socio-cultural, economic and political turmoil in the post-crisis Ivory Coast society is affected by a series of transformations: economic and social, aesthetic and anthropologic, institutional and political. The assessment is clear: public cultural politicies in Ivory Coast and Africa in general are in a crisis. However, after 40 years of intervention and engagement by public authorities, private entities and non-governmental organizations, they have started to jointly work to serve African arts and culture. Despite these amenities still being in their infancy and with several deficiencies we can no longer neglect the importance, both in terms of economic and social impacts, of arts and culture in Ivory Coast

Abstract:
In the field of HIV, more than 30 years into the epidemic, the need to ensure that what researchers learn makes its way into tangible actions in the real world is especially poignant. This dissertation addresses the critical divide between research production and its translation into practice. It advances ways to measure the investments of citizens and stakeholders in qualitative studies and offers new perspectives on the losses inadvertently caused by particular investments in health research and services. Unfortunately, many of the problems in how we practice and disseminate research are rampant throughout the health and development research sector. Therefore, while this anthropological dissertation focuses on HIV and Lesotho, several of the findings are applicable in other geographical and topical settings. This dissertation explores how the practice of conducting qualitative research becomes a type of disease prevention intervention itself cutting across systems. Using a large qualitative HIV sexual, social, and behavioral health research project, as a case study, I illuminate how health research knowledge makes its way (or not) to the populations for whom it is intended. Following up four years later, using in-depth semi-structured and structured interviews, I probe practical and theoretical issues involving the original research assistants, a comparison group, and representatives from organizations targeted to be most likely to use the research findings. I pilot a communication diffusion measurement tool that visualizes the researchers’ ability to apply what they learned from the research experience in talking to their families, partners, acquaintances, work colleagues, and students/trainees. The results indicate significant differences between the original team and the comparison group’s communication diagrams, demonstrating the tool’s usefulness in visualizing who is talking to whom, with what magnitude, and the types of life moments that trigger opportunities to have quality conversations about HIV, sex, and Multiple Concurrent Partnerships (MCP). As evidenced in this study, team members are part of the larger social system. They have the potential to influence the formal dissemination of HIV prevention information into policy and programming as well as the informal diffusion into their own life and in the lives of those they encounter in their social network. Nowhere in translation and dissemination research descriptions are the research team members discussed. Based on this research, I argue that, in addition to greater involvement of the public and stakeholders in translational research, there is a need to include the “implementers” of research beyond that of the principal investigators: the research staff. There is a need to further conceptualize the role of the “research team” in the translation of research to practice paradigm. Data have been collected from grey documents, project reports, scientific papers, newspapers, and websites establishing current points of focus for well-funded global entities in context with our understanding of transmission and prevention dynamics and debates. Analysis of these sources reveal strong rhetoric for combined biomedical, social, behavioral and structural approaches but programming and funding reports reflect much more weight and financing to biomedical solutions. The findings from organizational representatives interviewed in this study reveal that the creation of research and diffusion of information will follow the funding. Similar to Lesotho, many researchers and health professionals in developing countries are hired into biomedical or clinical projects for employment. This project explores the HIV response as part of economic, social and health development in Lesotho supported by the aid industry, and presents data on how the investments of money influence the ways in which local leaders and everyday citizens define, communicate, and conceive solutions to the problem of HIV. In the mid-term, translating biomedical findings into real world realities requires qualitative research. Ethically sound and well-trained qualitative researchers are fundamental in the creation and diffusion of knowledge. As the findings in this study indicate, the qualitative experience provides an opportunity to understand the epidemic that leads people to change their own behaviors, influence those around them, and have the desire to facilitate conversations to provoke social action and change. However, this study also demonstrates how people can go years talking, studying, and working in HIV without ever having an “awakening” or deeper understanding of HIV in their local reality. Study results delve into the long-term effects on the local researchers, furthering our understanding of the different ways in which “capacity” is built in the local involvement. The dissertation also explores critical questions about qualitative research methods and ethics within a context of investigating a disease where everyone—researchers and the researched—are either infected or affected. Based on this research, I argue that true education about HIV is a dialogical perpetual process of interrogating what we know, imagining what should be done and trying: Praxis. This heightened awareness of how our daily research practices link to larger systems will help us not to allow our do-gooder attempts to blind us to the harm we may inadvertently do, or to the lost opportunities we squander. Instead, we must capture and maximize our investments in research and people as agents of change and not only as patients, participants, or employees.

Abstract:
Étude, sur la base de 162 caractères issus de 179 tombes gelées parfaitement conservées, de l'évolution culturelle du peuplement de la Iakoutie du XVIe siècle au XIXe siècle. Les Iakoutes sont un peuple du nord-est de la Sibérie, de langue turque, éleveurs de bovins et de chevaux, entourés de populations de langue sibérienne, éleveurs de rennes. Dispersés en plusieurs tribus avant la colonisation russe, ils vont connaître au contact des Russes un "âge d'or" avant d'être assimilés à la culture russe orthodoxe au XIXe siècle. Leurs tombes gelées, avec des données cultuelles et biologiques intactes, jointes aux données historiques et à ce contexte écologique particulier, font de leur évolution culturelle un cas d'école exceptionnel pour l'interaction homme/milieu et pour les sciences humaines et sociales. Après une étude descriptive des caractères, des études multivariées, descriptives et décisionnelles, confrontent les différences entre âges, sexes, lignées, périodes et en- sembles géographiques ; elles sont confrontées ensuite à une analyse phylogénétique. Les premières analyses démontrent les changements économiques et religieux liés à l'évolution chronologique tandis que la phylogénie fournit des hypothèses sur la transmission culturelle, différenciée selon le sexe. Une phase de synthèse permet de confirmer la fondation méridionale de la culture iakoute, identifier ses mécanismes d'adaptations, puis d'évolutions face à la colonisation russe et enfin de reconnaître ses modes de transmissions et de diffusion qui l'ont fait évoluer d'un mode de vie traditionnel à un mode de vie orthodoxe russe
Study, on the basis of 162 characters from 179 perfectly preserved frozen burials, of the cultural evolution of the settlement of Yakutia from the 16th century to the 19th century. The Yakuts, people from north-eastern Sibe- ria, Turkic speaking, cattle and horse breeders, are surrounded by Siberian speaking people, reindeer herders. Divided into several tribes before the Russian colonization, they will experience in contact with the Russians a "golden age" before being assimilated into the Russian Orthodox culture in the 19th century. Their frozen tombs, with intact cultural and biological data, together with historical data and this particular ecological context place their cultural evolution as an exceptional school case for human-environment interaction and for the human and social sciences. After a descriptive study of the characters, multivariate, descriptive and decisional studies, comparing differences between ages, sexes, lineages, periods, geographical groups, are carried out; it is followed by a phylogenetic analysis. The first analyses demonstrate the economic and religious changes linked to chronological evolution, while phylogeny provides hypotheses on cultural transmission, differentiated according to sex. A phase of synthesis allows us to confirm the southern origins of the Yakut culture, to identify its mechanisms of adaptation, then of evolution in the face of Russian colonization, and finally to recognize its modes of transmission and diffusion that have made it evolve from a traditional way of life to a Russian orthodox way of life

Resumo: Esta pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, está centrada na reflexão entre Educação, Comunicação e Cultura, tendo como referencial teórico os Estudos Sociais e Culturais. Objetivou compreender o olhar cultural do professor de Ensino Médio, a partir do uso da mídia na escola e, para isto, foi investigada a revista Carta na Escola - suplemento especializado em Ensino Médio - da revista semanal de informação, Carta Capital. Verificou de que forma os conteúdos jornalísticos sobre acontecimentos da atualidade foram utilizados pelos professores, como complemento paradidático, em diferentes disciplinas - considerando as propostas dos PCNEM para cada uma delas. Examinou, ainda, a recepção e a compreensão de Carta na Escola entre os alunos. O corpus da pesquisa foi constituído por cinco edições da revista, no período de agosto a dezembro de 2011, para melhor entendimento de sua proposta pedagógica. Em seguida, ancorada nos estudos das Teorias de Recepção, a pesquisa usou o método de Grupo Focal - para aprofundamento da análise - com sete professores e oito alunos do 2º ano do Ensino Médio, o que permitiu compreender, numa perspectiva dialógica, como se opera, na sala de aula, o debate cultural e formador da visão de mundo dos alunos. Foram gravadas, em vídeo, todas as aulas com o uso das reportagens de Carta na Escola, bem como aplicados questionários aos professores e alunos para verificar os resultados do uso dessa mídia em sala de aula. Finalmente, por meio do cruzamento dos dados coletados (documentos, entrevistas, observação direta), foi realizada a análise final dos resultados, sob uma perspectiva foucaultiana (1979), tomando por justificativa sua concentração menos ligada a detalhes dos textos e, sim, focada em um olhar historicamente discursivo dos atores sociais subjacentes aos textos e aos contextos. A pesquisa apontou para uma mídia que procura adequar suas propostas didáticas às competências e habilidades descritas nos PCNEM; entretanto, não "ouve" o professor-leitor de maneira sistemática, mas sim, esporádica e genérica. Quanto à seleção de temas, os critérios para sua escolha e diversidade são oscilantes, havendo priorização de assuntos relacionados às Ciências Humanas e suas Tecnologias em detrimento das Ciências da Natureza, Matemática e suas Tecnologias. Os professores e alunos entenderam que o conteúdo programático da escola associado ao uso desta mídia, em específico, facilita o "querer-aprender" à medida que a notícia os coloca - docente e discente - frente a um sentido de pertencimento social, de lógica, de utilidade à vida que segue além das carteiras da escola
Abstract: This research, qualitative in nature, focuses on a discussion involving Education, Communication and Culture, theoretically based on Social and Cultural Studies. It aimed at understanding the cultural perspective of High School teachers through their use of media resources in the school setting. To achieve this goal, we investigated the magazine Carta na Escola [School Letter] - a supplement of the weekly news magazine Carta Capital dealing with High School issues. The study verified how journalistic contents about current events were used by teachers as supplementary educational materials in different disciplines, considering the proposals of the PCN [Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais - Brazilian National Curricular Parameters] for each discipline. It also examined how Carta na Escola has been received and understood by students. The corpus of the research consisted of five editions of the magazine, from August to December 2011, to better understand its pedagogical proposal. Then, anchored in the studies of Theories of Reception, the research used the method Focus Group, for an in-depth analysis. The group was made up of seven teachers and eight second-year High School students, which allowed us to understand, in a dialogical perspective, how the cultural debate operates in the classroom and contributes to the development of the students' worldview. All classes which used the articles of Carta na Escola were recorded on video and questionnaires were filled out by teachers and students to check the results of the use of this media in the classroom. Finally, by crossing the collected data (documents, interviews and direct observation), the final analysis of results was carried out from a Foucaultian perspective (1979), since such approach focuses less on textual details and more on a historically discursive perspective of the social actors behind texts and contexts. The research pointed to a media that seeks to adapt its teaching proposals to the skills and abilities described in the PCNEM [Brazilian National Curricular Parameters for High School]. However, it does not "listen to" the teacher-reader systematically, but rather sporadically and generically. Regarding the selection of topics, the criteria for their choice and variety are oscillating, with priority given to issues related to Human Sciences and their technologies to the detriment of Natural Sciences, Mathematics and their technologies. Teachers and students understood that the curriculum of the school associated with the use of this particular media facilitates the willingness to learn, since news in general brings teachers and students a sense of social belonging, logic and usefulness that goes beyond the formal school teaching

Abstract:
The aim is to determine how the media environment affects the way in which live performance is received, distributed, and participated in. Based particularly on media and cultural convergence, the study analyses contemporary social changes regarding the public's interaction with the distribution, multiplication, interconnection and ubiquity of resources, and the flow of information and communication. The aim is to show that the current media ecosystem is in need of a new relationship with audiences. 12 in-depth interviews were conducted with performing arts professionals and a case study was carried out on audiences at the Temporada Alta performing arts festival. The empirical study lies in an online ethnographic study on the social interaction of audiences using Twitter and in an online survey. The results of the study give insights into inequality in cultural participation, and propose a classification based on interactions between members of the audience and the cultural product.

Amb la base de l'ecologia dels mitjans, i considerant en particular la convergència mediàtica i cultural, s'analitzen els canvis socials contemporanis dels públics en relació directe amb la disseminació, la multiplicació, la interconnexió i la ubiqüitat dels recursos i els fluxos d'informació i comunicació. L'objectiu és demostrar que l'ecosistema mediàtic actual requereix una nova relació amb el públic. S'han realitzat 12 entrevistes en profunditat a professionals del sector escènic i un estudi dels públics del festival d'arts escèniques Temporada Alta. L'anàlisi empírica es recolza en un estudi etnogràfic en línia de la interacció social dels públics del festival a la xarxa social de Twitter i en una enquesta per Internet als espectadors. Els resultats contribueixen a una nova forma d'identificar la desigualtat de participació cultural.

Abstract:
L’histoire culturelle et religieuse de l’Allemagne aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles est profondément marquée par le piétisme. Mouvement de renouveau religieux au sein des Églises protestantes, le piétisme favorise aussi l’apparition de cercles et de communautéshétérodoxes et séparatistes. C’est dans ce milieu du « piétisme radical » qu’a évolué Charles-Hector de Saint-George, marquis de Marsay (1688-1753). Issu d’une famille huguenote française, il a vécu principalement en Allemagne, dans le comté religieusement tolérant de Wittgenstein-Berlebourg. Nourri par la doctrine de la quiétiste française Jeanne Marie Bouvier de la Motte-Guyon dite « Madame Guyon » (1648-1717), Marsay écrit à partir des années 1730 plusieurs ouvrages religieux publiés à la fois en français et dans leur traduction allemande ; ouvrages qui surent prôner et diffuser la mystique de Mme Guyon dans le milieu du piétisme radical. En outre, il rédige une autobiographie et entretient des correspondances intenses avec des amis en Allemagne et en Suisse. C’est l’ensemble de ces sources, inédites et peu connues par la recherche, qui constitue le corpus de notre étude.Le cadre méthodologique qui nous a paru le plus propice pour explorer notre sujet est celui du transfert culturel. L’étude de l’oeuvre de Charles-Hector de Marsay s’annonce en effet féconde pour le chercheur s’intéressant à la fois à la littérature du piétisme radical et à la dynamique complexe des échanges culturels entre les aires francophone et germanophone, entre le monde catholique et le monde protestant. Notre thèse cherche donc à élucider, à travers une étude de cas, les conditions de la réception des écrits de Madame Guyon dans la littérature du piétisme radical, en mettant l’accent sur le rôle des réseaux spirituels, mais aussi sur les modalités de cette réception, envisagées comme l’appropriation et la transformation d’idées religieuses, mais aussi d’un modèle d’écriture
The cultural and religious history of Germany in the 17th and 18th centuries is deeply marked by pietism. Pietism was a movement of religious renewal within the Protestant churches, and it also fostered the emergence of heterodox and separatist circles andcommunities. The work and live of Charles-Hector de Saint-George, Marquis de Marsay (1688-1753) was heavily influences by this environment of “radical pietism””. Born into a French Huguenot family, he lived mainly in Germany, in the religiously tolerant county of Wittgenstein-Berlebourg. Nourished by the doctrine of the French quietist Jeanne Marie Bouvier de la Motte-Guyon known as "Madame Guyon" (1648-1717), from the 1730s onwards Marsay wrote several religious works published both in French and in their German translation. These works spread the mysticism of Madame Guyon into the circles of radical pietism. In addition, he wrote an autobiography and maintained intense correspondence with friends in Germany and Switzerland. All these sources, unpublished and little known, constitute the corpus for our research. The methodological framework which seemed to us the most favorable to explore our corpus is that of cultural transfer. The study of the work of Charles-Hector de Marsay is of great interest to researchers of both the literature of radical pietism and the complex dynamics of cultural exchanges between the French and German-speaking regions , between the Catholic and Protestant worlds. Our thesis therefore seeks to clarify through a case study, the reception Madame Guyon's writings received in the literature of radical pietism, with an emphasis on the role of spiritual networks, but also on the modalities of this reception, which we see as an appropriation and transformation both of religious ideas and a certain model of writing

Abstract:
Nous pouvons appréhender le Cinéma comme un vecteur culturel capable de cristalliser les us et coutumes d’une société, ou comme un outil susceptible d’en manifester les aspirations. L’industrie cinématographique italienne demeure parmi celles qui ont su imposer dans l'imaginaire des publics des œuvres venues aussitôt enrichir le patrimoine culturel mondial. De nos jours, sa présence internationale est plus modérée, et le rayonnement de ses œuvres ne dépasse que rarement les limites nationales. Les quelques auteurs tels que Emanuele Crialese, Matteo Garrone et Paolo Sorrentino ont su gagner une visibilité désormais incontestable, leur permettant de devenir le symbole d’un cinéma italien contemporain renaissant. Les contenus de leurs filmographies sont le résultat de formes cinématographiques tout aussi riches que variées, et leur influence semble capable de modifier et de mettre à jour l’imaginaire des passionnés de culture italienne. Nos travaux veulent étudier et comprendre l’impact de leurs œuvres au sein d’un pays comme la France. À travers une étude qui se veut historique, sociologique et économique, nous analysons la représentation du réel dans l’histoire du cinéma transalpin, un idéal intellectuel qui semble intéresser particulièrement les publics français. Puis nous nous consacrons aux contenus de nos trois filmographies de référence, pour en extrapoler les données socio-politico-économiques. L’étude de l’impact de ces œuvres sur les critiques cinématographiques français conclut ces travaux, qui se penchent également sur la distribution et l’exploitation de ce cinéma, présent non seulement dans les salles de l'Hexagone, mais diffusé parallèlement au sein de nombreux festivals
One may approach cinema as a cultural vector which can either give shape to the habits and customs of a given society or reflect its yearnings. The Italian film industry is one among those which have produced movies which entered the global cultural imaginary. Nowadays, its international presence has been reshaped and Italian films do not easily shine beyond the national frame. Artists such as Emanuele Crialese, Matteo Garrone or Paolo Sorrentino have managed to achieve an undeniable visibility, and have become the symbol of a reborn contemporary Italian cinema. The content of their filmographies are the result of film shapes that are as rich as they are diverse, and their influence seems able to alter and to update the imaginary of italian culture connoisseurs. The purpose of our work is to study and understand the impact of their masterpieces on the French audience. Through a historical, sociological and economical study, we will analyse the representation of reality in the history of Italian cinema : an intellectual ideal which seems to have been of interest especially to the French spectators. Then we will focus on the content of these three specific directors’ lifework in order to examine social, political and economical data. Finally, we will conclude by observing the impact these films have had on French experts such as film critics. This study also deals with the distribution and the running of these specific directors’ films not only in the cinemas but also when aired in various film festivals
È possibile concepire il Cinema come un vettore culturale capace di materializzare gli usi e i costumi di una società, o suscettibile di manifestarne le aspirazioni. L'industria cinematografica italiana dimora tra quelle che hanno saputo imporre delle opere entrate istantaneamente nell'immaginario collettivo, e ciò su scala mondiale. Oggi, la sua presenza a livello internazionale è stata ridimensionata e la diffusione delle sue opere oltrepassa raramente i confini nazionali. I rari autori del calibro di Emanuele Crialese, Matteo Garrone e Paolo Sorrentino hanno saputo acquisire una visibilità oramai indiscussa, permettendo loro di diventare il simbolo d'un cinema italiano contemporaneo rinascente. I contenuti delle loro filmografie sono il risultato di forme cinematografiche tanto ricche quanto varie, e la loro influenza sembra capace di modificare e aggiornare l'immaginario degli appassionati di cultura italiana. Queste ricerche vogliono analizzare e comprendere l'impatto delle loro opere in un paese come la Francia. Attraverso degli studi storici, sociologici ed economici, queste ricerche analizzano le forme rappresentative legate al reale presenti nella storia del cinema italiano, un ideale intellettuale che sembra interessare in particolar modo i pubblici francesi. Inoltre, esse si consacrano all'estrapolazione dei dati socio-politico-economici contenuti nelle tre filmografie a cui facciamo riferimento. L'analisi dell'impatto di queste opere sui critici cinematografici francesi scelti come pubblici, concludono queste ricerche che si dedicano in egual modo alla distribuzione e alla commercializzazione di queste opere, presenti non solo in sala, ma diffuse inoltre in molti festival

Abstract:
Innovation is regarded as one of the key drivers of national economic growth. It is defined as the adoption of a system, policy, program, device, process, product or service that is new to the adopting organisation. A must-have core competency for the adopting organisation is the ability to manage the innovation-adoption process (e.g. awareness of the innovation, attitude formation, intention to adopt, rate of adoption, evaluation, implementation, etc.). The link between innovativeness and projects undertaken is intimate, therefore, integrated advanced project management is recommended to address challenges faced by project management in improving organisations’ performance. Many organisations plan to adopt or have already adopted the Project Management Office (PMO) which is perceived as an organisational innovation because it is an effort to adopt new project management practices. Previous studies have indicated that the successful adoption of innovations often needs an effective diffusion process. This thesis argues that a combination of contextual factors (e.g. social, cultural, technological and organisational) and various innovation characteristics has the potential to influence the organisation’s intention to adopt innovation. Drawing upon the Diffusion of Innovation theory, and a stream of research that has focused on national culture, organisational climate, and technology and innovation management, the thesis introduces a conceptual model featuring seven unique constructs–each construct represents a single theoretical variable of interest. The thesis hypothesises upon how socio-cultural and technological factors (two constructs at the country level), organisational climate for innovation (single construct at the organisation level), and innovation characteristics (three constructs capturing perceived relative advantages, compatibility and complexity) influence the intention-to-adopt decision (single construct).

Abstract:
Cette thèse se propose d’analyser la politique culturelle chilienne à partir des programmes proposés par le Conseil National de la Culture et des Arts (CNCA) destinés à favoriser l’accès des citoyens à la culture et le développement des pratiques culturelles de ceux-ci. L’accent est mis sur le rôle de la médiation culturelle dans ce processus, principalement dans les zones d’habitat les plus défavorisées du pays.Le thème de l’accès constitue, dès lors, le coeur de la problématique. Il permet d’étudier deux stratégies complémentaires du CNCA, d’une part, la volonté d’imposer un type d’art spécifique aux citoyens et, d’autre part, l’objectif de permettre le développement optimal de chaque communauté en diversifiant l’offre pour favoriser l’intensité des pratiques artistiques. Ainsi, le CNCA propose des outils mais les agents de médiation s’en emparent et leurs orientations politiques et idéologiques apparaissent telles des éléments déterminants.Cette recherche qualitative repose principalement sur des entretiens réalisés auprès d’agents de médiation, de spécialistes du domaine de la culture et des responsables des programmes du CNCA. Elle cherche à contribuer à une meilleure compréhension des processus de médiation, qu’il s’agisse des enjeux pour la communauté, en particulier du type de liens qui s’établissent avec les habitants des quartiers où ils sont mis en oeuvre, que des dispositifs sur lesquels l’Etat s’appuie. La recherche vise également à mettre en évidence le rôle que peut jouer la médiation dans la réduction des inégalités d’accès. Notre analyse se focalise ainsi plus particulièrement sur les agents de médiation et leur rôle dans l’identification et la résolution des tensions qui apparaissant entre les objectifs de ces programmes et les attentes de leurs participants en matière de pratiques culturelles et artistiques. Nous étudions aussi les formes de subjectivisation que ces derniers expérimentent.Les transformations que les programmes sont susceptibles de générer au sein des communautés font également l’objet d’une attention particulière afin d’identifier les principaux problèmes que soulève l’action de l’Etat lorsque celle-ci vise à générer des voies d’accès diversifiées à la culture afin de promouvoir une identité culturelle respectueuse de la culture spécifique de chaque groupe de population
This thesis aims to analyze the Chilean cultural policy through the programs offered by the National Council of Culture and Arts (CNCA) to promote access for the citizens to culture and the development of cultural practices. The focus is put on the role that the cultural mediation has in this process, mainly in underprivileged sectors of society.The issue of access is, therefore, the heart of the problem in this area. It addresses two complementary strategies of the CNCA, on one hand, the intention to impose a specific type of art (high culture) toward citizenship, and on the other, the culture development of each community by means of diversifying culture offer and supporting artistic practices. Thus, the CNCA provides tools, but the success in these implementation by mediation agents depend of their political and ideological orientations not always in line with CNCA guidelines.This qualitative research is based mainly on interviews with mediation agents, subject experts and programs managers of CNCA. It seeks to contribute to a better understanding of the mediation process and especially the links established in the community where they are immersed. The research also aims to highlight the potential role of mediation in reducing inequalities of access. Our analysis has revealed the role of mediation agents in identifying and resolving tensions arising between the objectives of these programs and the expectations of their participants in cultural and artistic practices. We also study forms of subjectivation that they are experimenting.The transformations that the programs may achieve on the communities, are also a point of special attention to identify the main problems raised by the performance of the State when it seeks to generate diverse routes of access to culture to promote a respectful cultural identity about the specific culture of each population group

Abstract:
Cette dissertation est composée de trois articles traitant de sujets divers. Le premier développe une théorie sur la transmission de normes culturelles. Le second article traite de l'évolution des doctrines religieuses dans une économie productive. Enfin, le dernier article de cette dissertation est un travail joint avec Thierry Verdier. L'article propose une nouvelle approche des élections impliquant un nombre arbitraire de candidats. Cette problématique de recherche est importante non seulement quant à sa complexité théorique, mais aussi parce qu'elle permet d'étudier relativement simplement la structure des marchés politiques.Le premier article présente une théorie sur le développement de l'enfant et les pratiques parentales. Dans le modèle, un parent cherche à transmettre des normes comportementales à son enfant en lui envoyant des signaux, que l'enfant observe de manière imparfaite. L'enfant peut cependant augmenter la qualité des signaux qu'il reçoit en investissant dans l'acquisition de compétences cognitives.Nous établissons que les styles parentaux autoritaires ou permissifs décroissent l'accumulation de compétences cognitives. De plus, puisque les interactions entre parents et enfants visent à transmettre des normes comportementales, l'enfant développe un capital d'appréciation pour le développement de compétences cognitives.Notre perspective culturelle sur la question du développement cognitif fournit une grille d'interprétation utile pour divers résultats établis dans la littérature empirique sur le développement de l'enfant.Le second article propose une théorie de la prohibition religieuse contre l'usure et l'innovation et ses conséquences sur les activités et les occupations économiques.Comme une interdiction économique provenant de la religion majoritaire est soutenue par un risque d'exclusion sociale de ce groupe culturel, elle a moins d'effets sur les minorités religieuses. Cela implique que seules les minorités religieuses choisissent des activités qui vont à l'encontre de la prohibition à l'équilibre.Dans le dernier article, nous présentons une théorie micro-fondée de la concurrence politique à plusieurs candidats prenant une perspective ``d'organisation industrielle" de la politique. Nous présentons d'abord un modèle de vote aléatoire qui utilise des distributions introduites par le mathématicien français Maurice Fréchet et qui portent son nom. Ces distributions permettent d'exprimer les parts de vote des différents candidats comme des ``contest functions'', ce qui permet d'établir un théorème d'existence et d'unicité d'un équilibre des stratégies politiques dans des élections impliquant un nombre arbitraire de candidats.Le cadre analytique s'avère suffisamment souple pour traiter plusieurs applications sur des thèmes liés à la structure endogène des marchés politiques. Nous montrons en particulier que le degré d'information des électeurs sur les plateformes ainsi que les campagnes médiatiques impliquent un degré de fragmentation politique plus faible
The first chapter of this dissertation presents a theory of child development and parental rearingpractices. In the model, a benevolent parent seeks to transmit cultural norms to her child, whoacquires cognitive skills and develops a capital of appreciation for adopting behaviors that accordwith these norms. Our cultural perspective on the issue of cognitive development provides aninterpretation grid for various results established in the empirical literature. It also permits to identifythe parental characteristics that are conducive to various parenting styles, to child neglect and tochild maltreatment.The second chapter provides a theory of religious prohibition against usury and innovation and itsconsequences on economic activities and occupations. As an economic prohibition from themajority religion is sustained by a threat of social exclusion from that cultural group, it has lesseffects on religious minorities. It then creates an occupational pattern where only the religiousminorities choose activities that transgress the prohibition. By creating resentment against thereligious minorities, this occupational pattern strengthens the diffusion of the majority religion in thepopulation. An economic prohibition is then instigated by the clerics in the majority religion,because it allows them to consolidate their norms and to increase the scope of their control overpopular masses. This work also demonstrates that an economic prohibition lasts longer whenreligious clerics can legitimize secular rulers and when the competition on the religious market isweaker.In the last chapter, we present a microfounded theory of multi-candidate political competition takingan "industrial organization" perspective of politics. The analytical framework is shown to be exibleenough to address several applications on the topics of special interest politics, coalition formationin the legislature in proportional elections, and redistribution under alternative electoral rules

Abstract:
Les études réalisées sur la politique culturelle extérieure de la France, le soft power, appréhendent, pour l'essentiel, le sujet dans une perspective "d'en haut", en se concentrant sur la politique de l'Etat. L'analyse de la gouvernance de la politique culturelle extérieure de la France par le prisme du terrain, objet de cette recherche, montre que son centre de gravité est constitué par ses acteurs (le "réseau" à l'étranger ainsi que les hommes qui y exercent) plus que par l'administration centrale du ministère des Affaires étrangères. La politique culturelle extérieure est une politique publique dont il convient d'apprécier la substance à partir des initiatives locales au moins autant qu'au travers des discours et normes : elle peut être ainsi considérée comme la mise en scène de l'action culturelle conçue et menée par les agents du réseau culturel à l'étranger. Cette recherche s'est appuyée sur une analyse documentaire maniant à la fois la littérature grise (rapports internes, parlementaires, etc.), la presse écrite, la réalisation d'une enquête originale auprès des postes diplomatiques, ainsi que sur le bilan d'une expérience personnelle
Studies on French foreign cultural policy, the so-called "soft power", almost always treat the issue from a "top-down" viewpoint focusing on the State policy. The analysis of the governance of French foreign cultural policy through the prism of the field ("bottom-up analysis"), which is the purpose of this research, shows that its center is based on its actors (the "network" abroad and the men who work within it) rather than being formulated by the central Department of the Foreign Office. Foreign cultural policy is a public policy which substance should therefore be valued from local initiatives as well as from speeches and rules: it may then be seen as the setting of cultural activities designed and conducted by the agents of the cultural network abroad. This research is based on a documentary analysis which includes the “grey literature” (internal and parliamentary reports, etc), the press, a specific survey within diplomatic posts and the results of a personal experience

Abstract:
This research project examined the diffusion of change within one Victorian TAPE Institute by engaging action research to facilitate implementation of e-mail technology. The theoretical framework involving the concepts of technology innovation and action research was enhanced with the aid of Rogers's (1983) model of the diffusion of the innovation process. Political and cultural factors made up the initiation phase of innovation, enabling the research to concentrate on the implementation phase of e-mail Roger's (1983) model also provided adopter categories that related to the findings of a Computer Attitude Survey that was conducted at The School of Mines and Industries Ballarat (SMB), now the University of Ballarat—TAPE Division since amalgamation on 1st January 1998. Despite management rhetoric about the need to utilise e-mail, Institute teaching staff lacked individual computers in their work areas and most were waiting to become connected to the Internet as late as 1997. According to the action research reports, many staff were resistant to the new e-mail facilities despite having access to personal computers whose numbers doubled annually. The action research project became focussed when action researchers realised that e-mail workshop training was ineffective and that staff required improved access. Improvement to processes within education through collaborative action research had earlier been achieved (McTaggart 1994), and this project actively engaged practitioners to facilitate decentralised e-mail training in the workplace through the action research spiral of planning, acting, observing and reflecting, before replanning. The action researchers * task was to find ways to improve the diffusion of e-mail throughout the Institute and to develop theoretical constructs. My research task was to determine whether action research could successfully facilitate e-mail throughout the Institute. A rich literature existed about technology use in education, technology teaching, gender issues, less about computerphobia, and none about 'e-mailphobia \ It seemed appropriate to pursue the issue of e-mailphobia since it was marginalised, or ignored in the literature. The major political and cultural influences on the technologising of SMB and e-mail introduction were complex, making it impossible to ascertain the relative degrees of influence held by Federal and State Governments, SMB's leadership or the local community, Nonetheless, with the implementation of e-mail, traditional ways were challenged as SMB's culture changed. E-mail training was identified as a staff professional development activity that had been largely unsuccessful. Action research is critical collaborative inquiry by reflective practitioners who are accountable for making the results of their inquiry public and who are self-evaluating of their practice while engaging participative problem-solving and continuing professional development (Zuber-Skerritt 1992, 1993). Action research was the methodology employed in researching e-mail implementation into SMB because it involved collaborative inquiry with colleagues as reflective practitioners. Thoughtful questions could best be explored using deconstructivist philosophy, in asking about the noise of silence, which issues were not addressed, what were the contradictions and who was being marginalised with e-mail usage within SMB. Reviewing literature on action research was complicated by its broad definition and by the variability of research (King & Lonnquist 1992), and yet action research as a research methodology was well represented in educational research literature, and provided a systematic and recognisable way for practitioners to conduct their research. On the basis of this study, it could be stated that action research facilitated the diffusion of e-mail technology into one TAPE Institute, despite the process being disappointingly slow. While the process in establishing the action research group was problematic, action researchers showed that a window of opportunity existed for decentralised diffusion of e-mail training,in preference to bureaucratically motivated 'workshops. Eight major findings, grouped under two broad headings were identified: the process of diffusion (planning, nature of the process, culture, politics) and outcomes of diffusion (categorising, e-mailphobia, the survey device and technology in education). The findings indicated that staff had little experience with e-mail and appeared not to recognise its benefits. While 54.1% did not agree that electronic means could be the preferred way to receive Institute memost some 13.7% admitted to problems with using the voice answering service on telephones. Some 43.3% thought e-mail would not improve their connectedness (how they related) to the Institute. A small percentage of staff had trouble with telephone voice-mail and a number of these were anxious computer users. Individualised tuition and peer support proved helpful to individual staff whom action researchers believed to be 'at risk', as determined from the results of a Computer Attitude Survey. An instructional strategy that fostered the development of self-regulation and peer support was valuable, but there was no measure of the effects of this action research program, other than in qualitative terms. Nevertheless, action research gave space to reflect on the nature of the underlying processes in adopting e-mail. Challenges faced by TAPE action researchers are integrally affected by the values within TAPE, which change constantly and have recently been extensive enough to be considered as a 'new paradigm'. The influence of competition policy, the training reform agenda and technologisation of training have challenged traditional TAPE values. Action research reported that many staff had little immediate professional reason to use e-mail Theoretical answers were submerged beneath practical professional concerns, which related back to how much time teachers had and whether they could benefit from e-mail. A need for the development of principles for the sound educational uses of e-mail increases with the internationalisation of education and an increasing awareness of cultural differences. The implications for conducting action research in TAPE are addressed under the two broad issues of power and pedagogy. Issues of power included gaining access, management's inability to overcome staff resistance to technology, changing TAPE values and using technology for conducting action research. Pedagogical issues included the recognition of educational above technological issues and training staff in action research. Finally, seventeen steps are suggested to overcome power and pedagogical impediments to the conduct of action research within TAPE. This action research project has provided greater insight into the difficulties of successfully introducing one culture-specific technology into one TAPE Institute. TAPE Institutes need to encourage more action research into their operations, and it is only then that -we can expect to answer the unanswered questions raised in this research project.

Abstract:
En la actualidad, está la problemática del desarraigo en la tercera y cuarta generación de peruanos descendientes de inmigrantes japoneses, los Nikkei. Este desarraigo de la cultura inmigrante es resultado de los factores históricos y socioculturales del siglo XIX y XX que atravesaron los primeros inmigrantes japoneses que llegaron a Perú; así como la influencia de la cultura receptora (cultura peruana) que se dio con el paso de los años. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo identificar cuáles son las estrategias de comunicación que han influenciado en el desarrollo de las comunidades peruano japonesas en Lima en cuanto a transmitir y difundir su cultura e información a las próximas generaciones Nikkei. Además de analizar cuáles son las estrategias de comunicación que son utilizadas para captar la atención de la tercera y cuarta generación de descendientes. Para ello, se propone una metodología interpretativa con una estrategia metodológica mixta compuesta por encuestas y entrevistas semi-estructuradas para los distintos perfiles de descendientes: Representantes adultos de la colectividad Nikkei, jóvenes Nikkei participantes y jóvenes descendientes en desarraigo. La importancia de este estudio se encuentra en el análisis del uso de las herramientas comunicacionales para la perduración de la cultura inmigrante y la transmisión de nuevos valores e identidad a las próximas generaciones Nikkei que puede servir para el desarrollo de planes comunicacionales contra el desarraigo. Además, los resultados pueden servir como referencias para otras comunidades en situación similar.
Currently, there is the problem of uprooting in the third and fourth generation of Peruvians descendents from Japanese immigrants, the Nikkei. This uprooting present in this migrant culture is the result of the historical and sociocultural factors that the first Japanese immigrants who arrived to Peru went through between the 19th and 20th centuries. As well as the influence of the receiving culture (Peruvian culture) over the years. This research aims to identify which communication strategies have influenced in the development of the Peruvian-Japanese communities in Lima, in terms of transmitting and spreading information and their culture through the next Nikkei generations. In addition, it analyzes which communication strategies are used to capture the attention of the third and fourth generation of Nikkei. For this purpose, an interpretative methodology with a mixed methodological strategy is proposed which consist of surveys and semi-structured interviews for the different profiles of descendants: adult representatives of the Nikkei community, participating young Nikkei and uprooted young descendants. The importance of this study is found in the analysis of the use of communication tools for the continuance of the immigrant culture and the transcendence of new values and a new identity to the next Nikkei generations which can serve to develop new communication plans against uprooting. Furthermore, the results can serve as references for other communities in a similar situation.

Abstract:
Cette thèse a pour ambition de comprendre et de restituer la grammaire d’action de la médiation culturelle. Alors que ce champ présente des contours flous, notre recherche propose une définition sociohistorique de ces activités, dont le développement doit être rapporté à la reconfiguration du projet de démocratisation de la culture. Cette thèse décrit la topographie d’un champ traversé par des mouvements de professionnalisation complexes et partiellement contradictoires. Un grand nombre de dispositifs de médiation ont été observés et analysés au prisme d’une double interrogation portant d’une part sur les formes et d’autre part sur le sens de l’action. Cette double interrogation permet de faire apparaître des problèmes propres à la reconnaissance des actions de médiation et à la définition respective des objets à transmettre (oeuvres d’art, expérience esthétique, pratiques artistiques ?) et des destinataires à construire (quels publics ?). Elle permet également de comprendre comment les médiateurs construisent leur activité comme une activité de transformation des rapports aux autres et à soi, dotée d’un sens et d’une utilité sociale et civique dont le terme « éthique » rend compte. Ces analyses contribuent à éclairer les processus subjectifs d’engagement dans le travail et d’actualisation du rapport aux valeurs tout en éclairant les ressorts propres de l’action des dispositifs de médiation. Les enquêtes de terrains ont été menées dans différents secteurs (spectacle vivant, cinéma, beaux-arts) et auprès de différentes institutions (théâtre de l’Odéon, Parc de la Villette etc.), associations (CEMÉA, Chroma-Zebrock) ou dispositifs d’éducation artistique (Ecole au cinéma)
This PhD dissertation aims to understand and render the “action grammar” of cultural mediation. While the limits of this field are hazy, this work presents a socio-historical definition of this type of activity, the development of which is ascribed to the reframing of the cultural democratization project. This PhD describes the topography of a field crisscrossed by complex and partially contradictory professionalization trends. A large number of mediation devices are observed and analyzed through a double angle: on the one hand, that of the forms, and on the other hand, that of the meaning of these projects. This double questioning unveils problems which are specific to the acknowledgment of mediation projects and to the definition of both the objects that are to be communicated (art works, aesthetical experience, artistic practice) and those at the receiving end (which audiences are targeted?). It also allows us to understand how mediators (educators) construct their activity as a transformation of the relationship to others and to oneself, endowed with meaning and with social and civic usefulness, conveyed by the term “ethics”. This is a contribution to the understanding of subjective processes of work commitment and of the enactment of the relation to values, while shedding light on mediation devices' action mechanisms. The fieldwork was carried out in various settings (performing arts, film, plastic arts) and in different institutions (Théâtre de l’Odéon, Parc de la Villette etc.), associations (CEMÉA, Chroma-Zebrock) or artistic education projects (Ecole au cinéma)

The present scientific work investigates the composed object from the original Taoist Ancient Medicine text in archaic Chinese, The Yellow Emperor s Inner Classic , and the European translations into English, Portuguese, by Veith, and into French, by Ung and Chamfrault. There has been an attempt to keep the legitimacy of the source of the text in the translations into the Portuguese language, made by the author of the thesis. Thematic excerpts of dào, yīnyángqì, wǔxíng of the The Yellow Emperor s Inner Classic have been taken and contrasted to the European versions by means of comparisons that have been given systematized commentaries. Because both textualities are products of the fecundity and intelligibility of two distinct cultures, ancient Chinese and current European cultures, there is reference to the study of the problems of the cultural differences with the dimensions that have implications in the Philosophical, Linguistic and aesthetics scopes. A conceptual elaboration has been performed in order to explain the cultural phenomena involved in the transformation and in the translocation of the hypotext into the hypertext. The cultural differences have been made concrete based on Montgomery s cultural diffusion theories, Bastide s acculturation, globalization, Holton s hybridization, Lackner s hybridization and neo-figurism, Julien s cultural fecundity, Genette and Kristeva s intertextuality. The result of the research has led to the conclusion that the translation into Portuguese sought to preserve the authenticity of the original book s cultural and textual fecundity. The translocation of the original text from ancient China to current Europe has received modifications in cultural, philosophical, semantic-linguistic and aesthetic dimensions that took place in the translations of the ancient polysemic sinograms of taoism. These were decontextualized in the entrance of the received texts in another culture, the European culture, which is distinct from the former. It conduces to phrasing and recurrent significations, which are familiar in the receiving Western culture that overpowers the ancient Chinese, belonging to the ancestry of the Yellow Emperor
O presente trabalho científico investiga objeto composto do texto original de medicina chinesa antiga do taoismo, em chinês arcaico, o Clássico Interno do Imperador Amarelo e as traduções europeias em inglês, português, de Veith; em francês de Ung e Chamfrault. Procurou-se manter a legitimidade do texto de origem na tradução para o idioma português feito pelo autor da tese. Foram extraídos excertos temáticos do dào, yīnyángqì, wǔxíng do Clássico Interno comparado às versões europeias por recursos de cotejos que receberam comentários sistematizados. Sendo que, ambas as textualidades são produtos da fecundidade da inteligibilidade de duas culturas distintas, a da chinesa antiga e a europeia atual. Por essa razão remeteu-se ao estudo dos problemas das diferenças culturais com as dimensões que implicam no âmbito filosófico, linguístico e estético. Realizou-se a elaboração conceitual para se explicitar os fenômenos culturais envolvidos na transformação na transladação do hipertexto ao hipotexto. Foram feitas concretização das diferenças culturais fundamentando-se nas teorias da difusão cultural de Montgomery, aculturação de Bastide, globalização, polarização, hibridação de Holton, hibridação e neo-figurismo de Lacnker, fecundidade cultural de Jullien, intertextualidade de Genette e Kristeva. O resultado da pesquisa permitiu concluir que a tradução ao português procurou preservar a autenticidade da fecundidade cultural e textual do livro de origem. A translocação da obra de origem, da China Antiga para a Europa atual recebeu modificações em dimensões culturais, filosóficas semântico-linguísticas, estéticas ocorridas nas traduções dos sinogramas antigos polissêmicos do taoismo descontextualizados na recepção dos textos de acolhida por outra cultura distinta da anterior, a europeia que conduz a fraseados, significações recorrentes, familiares na cultura dominante ocidental de chegada sobre a chinesa antiga, da ancestralidade do Imperador Amarelo

Abstract:
Après avoir partagé les politiques culturelles majoritairement actives en trois modèles et modes afin dedéfinir ce qu'est La Culture, je travaille à une catégorisation de l'objet de vulgarisation de cette Culture, à savoir l'Art, et à une cartographie de son ou ses sujets, à savoir le spectateur et sa place, pour finalement essayer de proposer un mode d'action culturelle nommé non plus politique culturelle mais politique artistique. De La Critique à La Critique de la Critique de la Critique, en passant par La Critique de la Critique, je cherche à sortir de la confortable définition polysémique régnant sur le territoire culturel et à la Tour des Arts, et ce dans le projet utopique de transfiguration de leurs architectures
The Great Culture and the Great Public as mythical as Alexander or From the art of taking distance. What is art ? Verfremdung → to make stranger. While cultural exhibition tends to be events that are most often apprehended through their relation to the Great Public – sometimes legitimating, sometimes repulsive,sometimes motive and often simultaneously recipient, adjuvant, opponent, expected, persona non grata andalmost always juge-baromètre arpenteur, supposedly outside of concern of that event – we will try to bringout from these different policies (that pay close attention to numerical parameters) the complicities and contradictions between artistic/cultural practices and democratic practice. Can we still bet on subvertissant power of cultural production as ideological enhancer and democratical antioxidant whereas the culturallandscape seems to be shaped by a festivisation oxymoronique, a nivellement-exacerbant ?

Abstract:
Cette thèse a pour objet les formes d'adhésion au discours sur les « Créatifs Culturels », saisi comme courroie de transmission dogmatique du « capitalisme vert ». À la croisée de la sociologie de l'engagement, de l'écologie et de l'étude des croyances, la thèse retrace, dans un premier temps, la construction sociale, au sein de la configuration sociale du « capitalisme vert », d'un « mouvement entrepreneurial » réformiste. Apparu au début des années 1990, ce mouvement est engagé dans un travail d'imbrication entre des valeurs New Age et écologiques et d'autres propres au champ économique. Dans un deuxième temps, l’enquête de terrain, qui s'appuie sur la réalisation d'entretiens biographiques auprès d’acteurs engagés dans la diffusion de ce discours, montre comment la mise en pratique de cette idéologie fait l'objet de positionnements sur un continuum allant d'un pôle dogmatique à un pôle utilitariste, ces logiques de sens résultant in fine de socialisations hétérogènes
This thesis deals with the forms of adherence to the discourse on « Cultural Creatives », grasped as a strap of dogmatic transmission of « green capitalism ». At the crossroads of sociology of commitment, ecology and the study of beliefs, the thesis first traces social construction within the social configuration of « green capitalism », of reformist entrepreneurial movement. Appearing in the early 1990s, this movement is engaged in a work of interweaving between New Age values and other ecologies specific to the economic field. In a second phase, the field survey, which is based on the production of biographical interviews with a cast committed to the dissemination of this discourse, shows how the putting into practice of this ideology is the subject of positioning a continuum going from an area of belief to a utilitarian one, resulting in ultimate heterogeneous socialisations

Esta dissertação resulta de uma pesquisa de mestrado desenvolvida junto ao Programa de Pós – Graduação em Estudos de Cultura Contemporânea – Mestrado – (ECCO) da Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso. O objetivo principal da pesquisa foi investigar o processo de adaptação dos grupos de canto coletivo, na cidade de Cuiabá - Mato Grosso no cenário da cibercultura. A pesquisa põe em debate as transformações culturais provindas da acessibilidade virtual da internet, o avanço das tecnologias e sua influência no cenário musical contemporâneo. Considera que o canto coletivo, apesar de se manifestar muito comumente no meio musical, é ainda um tema pouco explorado na vertente da cibercultura. Com foco em analisar as implicações da utilização das tecnologias digitais nas possíveis modificações acerca das mediações e difusão musical, propôs-se a pesquisa de base qualitativa com pesquisa bibliográfica e pesquisa de campo. Foram consultados autores que discutem o universo da cibercultura, a utilização das redes sociais para divulgação de si e de seus trabalhos e também do canto coletivo. A pesquisa de campo aconteceu junto às instituições que promovem eventos culturais e também com os regentes de grupos de canto coletivo; buscou conhecer o cenário da música na modalidade do canto coletivo em Cuiabá, os espaços oferecidos aos grupos e as formas de divulgação. Houve ainda pesquisa na internet em busca de websites dos grupos que frequentemente se apresentam nesses eventos e como os seus regentes ou instituição representada pelos grupos entendem as articulações da mediação cultural no ciberespaço, assim como as implicações no cenário da cultura musical na cidade de Cuiabá. Os resultados apontam que poucos líderes demonstraram compreensão do potencial da Internet em seu trabalho, não a utilizando em benefício do canto coletivo da região. O ciberespaço parece não se apresentar para os regentes como um espaço que na sua abrangência pode fortalecer a prática, através de uma abordagem inovadora ao seu trabalho como difusor e mediador da cultura no campo da música.
This essay is the result of a mastering research developed along with the Graduation Program in Contemporary Culture Studies - Mastering degree– from the Federal University of Mato Grosso. The aim of this research was to investigate the process of adaptation from collective singing groups, in the city Cuiabá, state of Mato Grosso in the cyberculture scenario. This research debates cultural changes that come from virtual accessibility over the internet, the advancement of technologies and its influence in the contemporary musical panorama, considering that collective singing remains an unexplored theme in cyberculture, despite its appearance in the musical environment. Focused on analyzing implications of the uses of digital technologies in feasible modification about practices and musical diffusion, a qualitative search was proposed supported by bibliographic and field search. Authors who discuss the cyberculture universe, the uses of social network to disclose themselves and their works as well as collective singing were consulted. The field search happened along with institutions that promote cultural events and also with the collective singing groups regents; it aims to know the scenario of music in collective singing mode in Cuiabá, the places offered to groups and ways of disclosure. Furthermore, there was a research over the internet in order to seek websites from groups that frequently have presentations in these events and how their regents or representative institution understand the couplings of cultural practices in cyberspace, besides the implications in the scenario of musical culture in the city of Cuiabá. The results show that few leaders have demonstrated understanding of the potential of the Internet in their work, not using it properly for the benefit of the chanting of the region. Cyberspace does not seem to present to the regents as a space in its scope can strengthen the practice through an innovative approach to his work as a diffuser and mediator of culture in the field of music

Abstract:
De la fin du XIXe siècle aux premières décennies du XXe siècle, la Corée connaît un engouement sans précédent pour la découverte de l’Occident. L’acte de traduire en Corée fut un véritable acte d’accueil dans un pays à l’histoire complexe, en recherche d’identité culturelle voire nationale. Si l’on devait dessiner une frise imaginaire de l’histoire littéraire coréenne, nous serions interpellés par une sorte d’ellipse temporelle entre le passage de la littérature ancienne à la littérature moderne et contemporaine. En effet, sans l’introduction d’œuvres étrangères notamment françaises en Corée, et donc sans la traduction-création, la littérature moderne aurait probablement émergé difficilement. C’est donc grâce au transfert culturel d’une littérature européenne dite classique que la littérature moderne s’est façonnée dans le paysage littéraire coréen, résultat fulgurant d’un besoin d’évolution impulsé par un désir fort de rattraper et réveiller les esprits d’un peuple longtemps bridé par une conjoncture géopolitique particulière. La littérature en traduction de cette période est le point culminant d’une pensée littéraire, d’une notion sur la littérature elle-même qui, du système d’écriture jusqu’au transfert terminologique, n’a cessé de questionner ce qu’est la littérature. Cette étude propose de retracer ces enjeux à la fois comparatifs, historiques et littéraires par le biais des œuvres romanesques françaises du XIXe siècle en traduction publiées dans les revues et dans un journal et d’examiner, des versions des Misérables à celles du Comte de Monte-Cristo, un ensemble de romans français en traduction qui tous participent à l’acte de lire, traduire, écrire
From the late nineteenth century to the first decades of the twentieth century Korea experienced an unprecedented craze for the discovery of Western culture. The act of translating in Korea was a real act of welcome in a country with a complex history and in search of a cultural or even a national identity. If we were to draw an imaginary frieze of Korean literary history, we would be challenged by a sort of temporal ellipse between the passage from ancient literature to modern and contemporary literature. Because, in fact, without the introduction of foreign works, especially French ones into Korea, and therefore without the process of translation-creation, modern Korean literature would most likely only have emerged with considerable difficulty. It is therefore thanks to the cultural transfer of classical European literature that modern literature has shaped itself in the Korean literary landscape, a result of a need for evolution driven by a strong desire to catch up and awaken the spirits of a people long constrained by a particular geopolitical situation. The translation literature of this period is the culmination of a literary idea, a notion about literature itself, which, from the writing system to terminological transfer, has constantly questioned what literature is. This study proposes to trace these issues - at once comparative, historical and literary - through translations of French fictional works of the nineteenth century published in magazines and in newspapers and to compare versions of “Les Misérables”, and those of “Le Comte de Monte-Cristo”, French novels in translation that all entail the act of reading, translating, writing
