Full textAbstract:
La thèse porte sur la complexe évolution des théories et pratiques des relations industrielles, depuis les années trente jusqu'à la croissance économique de l’après-guerre. “Fordisme” est le mot d’ordre qu’on fait habituellement correspondre aux relations entre l’entreprise, le travail et le gouvernement dans cette période ; d’une façon plus générale, il est associé au contrat social qui est censé résulter de la structure de la production de masse elle-même, et à son prétendu cercle vertueux avec la consommation de masse. Dans ce sens plus large, le Fordisme a été souvent couplé, parfois superposé, à la macroéconomie keynésienne, au dirigisme économique, à l’état social. La thèse essaye donc de démêler et remettre en question ce concept de “Fordisme”, soi-disant simple, en traçant son histoire à multiples facettes et sa circulation internationale. Ainsi, elle engage une discussion générale des conflits entre le management et le mouvement ouvrier et se concentre sur trois études de cas : l’histoire de la doctrine des “relations humaines” d’Elton Mayo, entre ses origines en Australie et ses mises en oeuvre en Europe ; l’évolution du système de surveillance chez Fiat à Turin, à partir de la fin du fascisme jusqu’aux années soixante ; l’expérience du juriste Gino Giugni en tant qu’étudiant à Madison, Wisconsin, et par la suite en tant que traducteur en Italie des théories états-uniennes du mouvement ouvrier et des relations industrielles, entre les années cinquante et les années soixanteThe dissertation deals with the complex evolution of theories and practices of industrial relations between the interwar years and postwar growth. “Fordism” is the catchword usually associated with relations between the corporation, labor and government in this period and, more generally, with the supposed social compact arising from the very structure of mass production and its supposed virtuous circle with mass consumption. In this wider sense, Fordism has often been coupled, sometimes overlapped, with Keynesian macroeconomics, government economic interventionism, and the welfare state. The dissertation attempts to disentangle and discuss this supposedly simple notion of “Fordism” by tracing its manifold history and international circulation. Therefore, it involves a wide discussion of the conflict between labor and management in the mass production industries, and a focus on three case studies: the history of Elton Mayo’s “human relations” doctrine, from its origins in Australia to its applications in Europe; the evolution of the surveillance system at Fiat factories in Turin, from the last years of the Fascist regime to the late 1960s; labor scholar Gino Giugni’s experience as a student at Madison, Wisconsin, and later as a translator of American theories of the labor movement and of industrial relations, in the 1950s and 1960s

Full textAbstract:
The main purpose of this thesis is to trace a «history of italian TV audiences», conceived on readers’ and users’ perspectives, investigating cultural consumption of Italian working classes during the so called «miracolo economico». Historical studies on Italian television have always focused on broadcasting rather than receivers. Analyzing a wide range of statistical, oral and autobiographical sources (letters, diaries, memories), the thesis tries to capture the voice of the Italian working classes and hence to understand the change that collective identities and societies went through during the «miracolo economico». No other cultural product was shaped by, and at the same time and for, popular Italian culture as TV programs did, determining collective and social behavior. Therefore, my thesis aims to display the organizing procedures of the working audiences: to catch the role played by TV in popular classes' everyday life.L'obiettivo di questa tesi è definire una storia del pubblico televisivo italiano incentrata direttamente sui consumatori. La storiografia italiana, infatti, si è generalmente concentrata nel raccontare una storia dell'emittente più che dei riceventi. Per questo, l'oggetto primario di questo studio è il consumo culturale e televisivo delle classi popolari durante il cosiddetto «miracolo economico». Analizzando una serie di fonti statistiche, orali e autobiografiche, la tesi tenterà di descrivere i cambiamenti sociali e identitari di un epoca di grandi mutamenti, utilizzando direttamente la voce delle classi popolari. Se la televisione italiana si è sviluppata proprio a partire dal pubblico, prendendone direttamente la forma e andando a definire, così, una serie di comportamenti e mentalità che potremmo definire «popolari», l'obiettivo è quello di individuare il ruolo assunto dall'ascolto televisivo all'interno del tempo libero.

Milano viene considerata la "capitale" dove si svilupparono queste nuove energie. Mi propongo di mostrare gli sguardi su Milano di alcuni intellettuali che gravitavano intorno alla città proprio mentre le trasformazioni economiche, sociali e culturali erano in atto. Il contributo di tali intellettuali alla conoscenza di Milano si inseriva in un clima in cui le forze culturali più genuine ed indipendenti si proposero di conoscere e di documentare ciò che stava avvenendo, al di là della facile retorica sul boom che pervadeva i mezzi di informazione.

Southern immigration in Turin in Italy in the economic miracle. The case of
Sardinia during the season of Rinascita.
The aims of this work to analyze the Italian migration phenomenon during the
1950s and 1960s of the twentieth century. Italian emigration was a social
phenomenon of great importance in the Italian society and the analysis of the
history of migration in its various economic, social and political, he joined the
Italian national history. It is a known fact that Italy was a nation of great
emigration from the nineteenth century to the present day and therefore in the
following work I have tried to reconstruct the history of Italian emigration during
the second world war. This topic is devoted the first chapter of this work. At the
end of World War II, Italy was a poor and agricultural nation and the lack of jobs
pushed the Italians to emigrate to Europe and northern Italy to obtain better living
conditions. The emigration of Italian workers was at the base of Italian foreign
policy and the President of the Italian Government Alcide De Gasperi, who shook
economic agreements with European countries to encourage the emigration of the
Italian workforce. After the catastrophe of Marcinelle the emigration to northern
Italy (more precisely to the city of Turin) represented an important alternative to
emigration to Europe. Immigration to the city of Turin is dedicated the second
chapter of this work. The city of Turin during the fifties and sixties of the
twentieth century was hit by a large flow of migrants coming from southern Italy.
Italians from southern Italy went to Turin to look for a job, a home and a better
future. With immigration in Turin were born numerous problems: immigrants were
living in old houses in the historic center of Turin, were heavy jobs that did not
guarantee good living conditions, also the relationship between Italians from
southern Italy and the Turin population were very difficult. After analyzing the
Southern Italian Immigration in Turin, in the third chapter of this work, I have
tried to describe the events and stories of the many Sardinian arrived in Turin
during the fifties and sixties of the twentieth century to look for a job and better
living conditions. The Sardinians in Turin managed to integrate into the city and
were praised for their qualities of honesty, hard work, seriousness and for their
intellectual abilities.

Full textAbstract:
Il lavoro di tesi tratta il rapporto fra letteratura e lavoro comparando due fasi storiche: il miracolo economico italiano e la grande recessione.
Per quanto riguarda il dibattito teorico dei primi anni Sessanta si andrà ad esaminare alcuni testi presenti nei volumi quattro e cinque del Menabò di letteratura, per poi analizzare romanzi chiave legati al tema: Il lavoro culturale e L'integrazione di Luciano Bianciardi, Donnarumma all’assalto di Ottiero Ottieri e Memoriale di Paolo Volponi.
Passando invece agli anni successivi alla crisi economica del 2008, l’approfondimento toccherà le nuove forme e spazi di discussione e critica letteraria, in particolare i blog di letteratura online come “Giap” e “carmila.online”. Allo stesso modo verranno prese in considerazione: l’opera sperimentale Meccanoscritto del Collettivo MetalMente, scritta in collaborazione con Wu Ming 2 e Ivan Bretani, la trilogia sul lavoro, ancora incompiuta, di Alberto Prunetti e la collana Working Class delle edizioni Alegre fondata da quest’ultimo.
L’obiettivo di questa ricerca è quello di confrontare le due fasi storico-letterarie attraverso la lente dell’occupazione lavorativa evidenziandone i punti in comune e provando così a comprende come e per quali motivi a distanza di circa mezzo secolo la letteratura italiana abbia ricominciato a narrare, da diverse prospettive comparabili, il lavoro e i lavoratori.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is the analysis, by documentary images, shoot from post-war period until the “economic boom”, of landscape, anthropological, cultural and economic transformation which took place in North-East Italy.
Thanks to a multidisciplinary approach which deals with sociological, artistic, psychoanalytic, philosophic, historic and economic aspects, the work develops enabling a deeper, more stratified and complex reading of the cinematographic representation of this transformation.
After a short introduction in which the methodological and content choices are explained, we pass to the body of the thesis, divided into three main areas: The work, the rite, the sacred; The landscape, the soul of the places, the places without a soul; The loss of human importance towards the space.
In the first domain, after realizing the total lack of religious or anthropological documentaries as the ones shoot in South Italy in the same period, the presence of the sacred is investigated from other points of view. Since the sacred always slopes down, after all, into the rite, a possible comparison can be found in the rite of work. It is thanks to the short films realized by Ermanno Olmi for Edisonvolta that work becomes the symbol of the holy rite, of the human demiurge who keeps his knowledge and his own individuality in spite of the quick passage to the modern. However, this perspective is counterbalanced by other film directors who show, instead, the dehumanization of the worker inside the factory, thus analysing the different aspects of the same issue.
In the second area, work is no more related to the sacred but it becomes a tool which frees from hunger, sorrow and humiliation, as evident in Florestano Vancini’s works. Supported by the “Camera del lavoro” of Ferrara, these works associate the civil and political commitment to a style which is influenced by both the neorealist and the “macchiaioli” painting. The landscape, which in Vancini’s works is subject of denouncement because of its decay, or a matter of pictorial digressions if interpreted in a bucolic perspective, in film directors like Piavoli and the less known Renzo Ragazzi, becomes immediately a myth bearer.
In the third part, in comparison with the anthropocentrical vision of the first one and with the balanced perspective between man and nature of the second one, there is a process of depersonalisation of man until his final disappearance. The results are empty spaces or disturbing architectonic buildings in a De Chirico style. The filmmaker who better grabs this tendency is Michelangelo Antonioni whose works not only deal with philosophic existential and aesthetic problems but also directly reflect upon this vision. Antonioni’s short films are compared with those of other film directors who, consciously or unconsciously, are influenced by him. They are charmed by the “shapes” of his rural and urban landscapes, stating at the same time the loss of the human being bearing.
In the conclusion, besides summing up the different trends focused by the analysis of the cinematographic material taken into account, we try to identify the film directors who, still today, both in documentary and in fiction, talk about the changes of the territory. We also try to identify the ones who are looking again for the soul of the landscape by putting art, literature, poetry and especially cinema as places of the memory and by considering them as tools able to hinder the levelling and the barbaric destruction.La tesi analizza le trasformazioni paesaggistiche, antropologiche, culturali, economiche dell’Italia del Nord-Est attraverso le immagini dei documentari realizzati tra l’immediato dopoguerra e gli anni del boom economico. Lo studio si articola secondo un approccio pluridisciplinare - sociologico, artistico, psicanalitico, filosofico, storico-economico - che favorisce una lettura più stratificata e molteplice della rappresentazione cinematografica di tale mutamento, ponendo a questione l’osmosi intercorrente fra difformi materie che, da angolazioni diverse, catturano un comune sentire riproducendolo nella forma loro più congeniale. Dopo una breve introduzione, in cui vengono esplicate le scelte metodologiche e contenutistiche, si passa al vero e proprio corpus della tesi, composta da tre macroaree: Lavoro, rito, sacralità; Il paesaggio, l’anima dei luoghi, i luoghi senz’anima; La perdita di importanza dell’uomo nei confronti dello spazio. Nella prima, dopo aver preso atto della totale assenza di documentari di matrice religiosa o di carattere antropologico assimilabili a quelli prodotti nel Sud Italia nel medesimo periodo, la presenza del sacro viene indagata sotto altri aspetti. Poiché la sacralità si declina, in fondo, sempre in una ritualità, un possibile riscontro è rintracciabile nel rituale lavorativo. Soprattutto grazie ai cortometraggi che Ermanno Olmi realizza per l’Edisonvolta, il lavoro diventa l’emblema del rito sacrale, dell’uomo-demiurgo che, pur nel rapido passaggio alla modernità, mantiene i propri saperi e la propria individualità. Ciò però viene controbilanciato da altri autori, che mostrano invece la disumanizzazione del lavoratore all’interno della fabbrica, indagando così le varie facce del medesimo problema. Nella seconda macroarea, il lavoro non ha più alcuna attinenza col sacro, ma diventa strumento che affranca dalla fame, dalla desolazione, dall’umiliazione, come è evidente nelle opere di Florestano Vancini che, sostenute dalla Camera del Lavoro di Ferrara, associano all’impegno civile e politico uno stile che risente della lezione neorealista così come della pittura dei Macchiaioli. Il paesaggio, che in Vancini è argomento di denuncia, a causa del degrado, o di divagazioni pittoriche, se declinato in chiave bucolica, in registi come Piavoli, ma anche in altri meno conosciuti come Renzo Ragazzi, è immediatamente portatore di mito. La posizione antropocentrica delineata nella prima parte e quella di equilibrio tra uomo e natura tratteggiata nella seconda vengono soppiantate, nella terza macroarea, da una progressiva spersonalizzazione dell’uomo culminante talora nella sua scomparsa, per lasciare il campo a spazi vuoti o a costruzioni architettoniche dagli inquietanti richiami dechirichiani. L’autore che meglio identifica questa parabola è Michelangelo Antonioni, i cui lavori, saturi di problematiche filosofiche, esistenziali ed estetiche, sono anche tra i pochi che interroghino direttamente lo statuto ontologico della visione. I cortometraggi di Antonioni vengono confrontati con quelli di registi che, consapevolmente o inconsapevolmente, risentono della sua influenza e rimangono affascinati dalle “forme” di paesaggi contadini e urbani, decretando al tempo stesso la perdita di rilevanza dell’uomo. Nella conclusione, oltre a fare il punto sulle varie tendenze ricavate dallo studio del materiale cinematografico analizzato, si tenta di individuare chi oggi, nel documentario e nel cinema di finzione, riprenda le fila del discorso sulla trasformazione del territorio e ricerchi nuovamente un’anima nel paesaggio, affermando l’arte, la letteratura, la poesia e soprattutto il cinema come luoghi della memoria e come strumenti atti a contrastare, coraggiosamente, l’appiattimento e la barbarica distruzione.

This research investigates in which dimension the formalization of the procedures from solo theater of physical line, in which the scene determines the spoken text, offers concrete ways to a specific problem in the performing arts: the gesture-speech relation. To check the hypothesis and problems of the theme of this research two works presented by Brazilian groups that have as base for their dramaturgy the monologues written by the Italian actor and dramaturg Dario Fo were analyzed: A descoberta das Américas, presented by Julio Adrião, directed by Alessandra Vannucci and produced by the production team Leões de Circo Pequenos empreendimentos from Rio de Janeiro and Il Primo Miracolo, presented and directed by Roberto Birindelli, of the Cia do Bebê from Porto Alegre. The research focuses on the analysis of some elements that constitute gestural score of these spectacles and their relation to the text, such as: repetition, fragmentation, breaks, description, sense creation, textual embodiment and its intertextual relations

Il presente studio ha avuto l’obiettivo di documentare la relazione che intercorre tra la fotografia e il Giappone. L’argomento è stato affrontato da un punto di vista storico, a partire dai primi rudimentali scatti fotografici fino all’era del digitale e di Internet. Non è stata esaminata solo la tecnica della fotografia, ma il ruolo della stessa durante la guerra, il suo utilizzo dal punto di vista documentaristico, la sua capacità di influenzare le masse.
È stata rivolta particolare attenzione all’ascesa del mercato fotografico nel dopoguerra giapponese e all’emergere di nuove correnti di espressione fotografica, e a come i vari fotografi abbiano usato questo mezzo per dipingere un quadro della società giapponese di quegli anni.
In seguito, ho analizzato in che modo il consumismo abbia avuto un ruolo di fondamentale importanza nell’affermazione di un mercato fotografico particolarmente florido come quello giapponese e come la fotografia si sia coniugata con le ultime tecnologie legate al mondo di internet e della tecnologia in generale, e le tendenze che ne sono derivate.

Il mio lavoro è dedicato ai processi alle immagini della Vergine che hanno dato origine a

Ho scelto di analizzare questa specifica documentazione attraverso l’esame di più
inquisitiones e optando per un metodo di ricerca che permetta di valutare i cambiamenti,
formali e sostanziali, avvenuti nella fonte stessa dal Quattrocento fino agli ultimi anni
del Cinquecento. [...] ho elaborato una tesi che ritengo possa
fornire alcune risposte relative non soltanto alla storia della fonte, ma anche a temi
diversi e più complessi, ampiamente dibattuti dalla storiografia: il ruolo dei vescovi
nella Chiesa pre e post tridentina e il loro rapporto con la corte papale e con le
istituzioni laiche territoriali; la questione della maggiore o minore continuità fra XV e

XVI secolo di fenomeni culturali - come quelli collegati a credenze e devozioni - e di
relazioni e conflitti fra istituzioni e giurisdizioni; il problema costituito dalla materialità
dell’immagine sacra e dall’elaborazione, proprio a partire dal processo, di memorie
condivise intorno ad essa . La mia ricerca si basa principalmente su fonti scritte prodotte
da processi informativi a oggetti materiali, nel mio caso immagini sacre, finalizzati
all’accertamento di un miracolo e alla possibile conseguente legittimazione di un
santuario: a livello storiografico, mi sono dunque confrontata con studiosi che hanno
portato le analisi sulla storia materiale nel campo della storia religiosa e della storia
delle devozioni, sebbene con metodologie e fonti differenti dalle mie. Ho dunque messo
in relazione i risultati del mio lavoro con quelli che emergono dalle ricerche di Mary
Laven - che studia le devozioni domestiche privilegiando le fonti provenienti dal basso -
o di Caroline Bynum - che indaga il paradosso rappresentato dalla doppia natura degli
oggetti sacri, con il quale i fedeli si trovavano a confrontarsi fra Medioevo ed Età
moderna. [...]

Full textAbstract:
La Seconda Guerra mondiale ebbe un impatto notevole sulle economie di tutti i Paesi del mondo lasciando cicatrici e distruzione pressoché ovunque. Alcune nazioni però ne furono colpite maggiormente rispetto ad altre. Infatti, al contrario degli Stati Uniti che non ebbero nessuno scontro diretto nei propri territori, e uscirono dalla guerra come vincitori assoluti, in tutta l’Asia la situazione era molto instabile e gli scontri avevano segnato molto duramente le nazioni coinvolte. Un esempio può essere identificato nel Giappone che dopo la Seconda guerra mondiale si conterà tra le più devastate e colpite nazioni del mondo con una perdita di circa 2 milioni di cittadini e una diminuzione della ricchezza netta del Paese pari al 25%. La produzione industriale subito dopo la fine della guerra era circa di un decimo rispetto a quella pre-guerra e le città e i poli industriali si erano ridotti a causa dei bombardamenti di circa ¼. Ancora, la Corea che dal 1910 aveva sperimentato il governo coloniale di sfruttamento da parte del Giapponese si trovava in una situazione difficilissima che fu maggiormente aggravata dalla Guerra di Corea del 1950, che sconvolse il territorio e porto la morte per circa 5 milioni di persone tra militari e civili. Come sono riuscite queste due nazioni in seguito a una tale distruzione nel giro di qualche decennio a risollevarsi ed entrare nella lista delle economie leader mondiali? Viene risposto a questo quesito nei primi due capitoli.
La spinta però non può durare per sempre: questo lo sta sperimentando il Giappone che si ritrova ormai da quasi 20 anni in una stagnazione economia che ancora oggi sembra attanagliarlo. Al contrario invece la Corea del Sud sembra ancora non aver perso quella spinta che aveva caratterizzato la sua incredibile ripresa. Quali sono stati i motivi che hanno condotto il Paese del Sol Levante a esaurire questa spinta? Perché invece la Corea del Sud sta riuscendo ancora oggi a sostenere un tasso di crescita costante e quali sono state le unicità che gli hanno permesso di farlo? A queste domande verrà risposto nell'ultimo capitolo della tesi.

At the beginning of the book of Job, Job is described as “blameless and upright; he feared God and shunned evil”. (Job 1:1) As the first chapter of the book progresses, Satan comes to God and presents a wager. Satan insinuates that Job is only faithful to God because God has “put a hedge around him”. (Job 1:9) Satan proposes that he can make Job curse God’s name if he removes the abundant blessings he has received. God accepts this wager and declares that as long as Job’s life is spared Satan can do with him as he wants, which begins a series of brutal trials. I found myself asking how can such violence and human suffering be justified?

Full textAbstract:
This thesis reports the results of a study designed to investigate the influence of exposure to televised medical dramas on perceptions of medical miracles. Four hundred and eighty-one college students participated in a survey in which they responded to different questions about their medical drama viewership and their different beliefs with regard to medical miracles. Results found that heavy medical drama viewers perceived belief in medical miracles to be less normal than non-viewers. Similarly, heavy viewers perceived medical miracles to occur less often than non-viewers. Interestingly, heavy viewers perceived medical dramas to be less credible than non-viewers. In addition, this study found that personal experience with medical miracles affected responses across all three measured viewership levels. The study concludes that, when compared to no exposure to medical dramas, heavy exposure has the potential for creating a more realistic view of medical miracles. Future research should continue to study genre-specific cultivation effects with regard to health perceptions.

Mendoza, Waldo. "The Peruvian Miracle: Good luck or good policies?" Economía, 2014. http://repositorio.pucp.edu.pe/index/handle/123456789/117224.
Full textAbstract:
The Peruvian economy has performed extraordinarily over the last 10 years. The 2012 per capita GDP is 66 percent above that of 2002, and more than double its 1992 level. In a long term perspective, the cumulative growth of GDP per capita recorded in the last 10 years has been the strongest since 1900. This is the «Peruvian miracle». This paper aims to find the determinants of the Peruvian miracle. In theory, countries’ macroeconomic performance can be determined by two factors: i) the «good (bad) luck effect» that relates to the international context, which may be favorable or unfavorable, and ii) the «good (bad) policies effects», associated with short-term macroeconomic policies or structural reforms,which are policies that alter the current development model. The hypothesis of this work is that the Peruvian miracle of the last 10 years has much to do with good luck, and, in part, with good short-term macroeconomic policies.La economía peruana ha tenido un desempeño extraordinario en los últimos diez años. El PBI per cápita de 2012 está un 66% por encima del de 2002 y es más del doble de su nivel de 1992. En una perspectiva de largo plazo, el crecimiento acumulado del PBI per cápita registrado en los últimos diez años ha sido el más vigoroso desde 1900. Este es el «milagro peruano». Este artículo tiene como propósito encontrar los factores determinantes del milagro peruano. En teoría,el desempeño macroeconómico de los países puede estar determinado por dos razones: i) el «efecto buena (mala) suerte» que tiene que ver con el contexto internacional que puede ser favorable o desfavorable; y ii) el efecto «buenas (malas) políticas», asociado a las políticas macroeconómicas de cortoplazo o a las reformas estructurales, que son políticas que alteran el modelo de desarrollo vigente. La hipótesis de este trabajo es que el milagro peruano de los últimos diez años tiene mucho que ver con la buena suerte y, en parte, con las buenas políticas macroeconómicas de corto plazo.

Native commentators on Taiwan's recent industrialization consider culture a key factor of the nation's modernization drive. Indigenous writers present Chinese culture as not only economically fit, but also morally superior. Such presentations, I argue, have unspoken ideological goals. Legitimation of the government, paternalistic claims on citizens and workers by the state and employers, and the rhetorical war against communism are some of the tacit agendas I discuss.

Full textAbstract:
Background
After a successful launch in early 2007 Pond’s Age Miracle, Unilever Vietnam’s anti-aging skincare product, is now experiencing falling sales and a declining market share having failed to complete its mission of counter-attacking its main competitor – P&G’s Olay Total Effect. This predicament poses a question of how Unilever Vietnam can improve market performance of this product.
Purpose
To determine Pond’s Age Miracle customer perceived value and propose recommendations on how to improve it.
Method
A combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches was pursued. In-depth interviews with consumers were used to discover relevant attributes of anti-aging skincare. A consumer survey was employed to measure relative importance and relative performance of the identified attributes – a basis for determining Pond’s customer perceived value.
Findings, Analysis and Conclusion
Customer perceived value of Pond’s Age Miracle was found to have a negative character on the entire market scale and across most of the listed consumer groups.
Recommendations
A re-launch of the upgraded version of Pond’s is suggested to maintain the current consumers and recruit the potential anti-aging skincare users.

Full textAbstract:
On 27 April 1994 the most hated flag in Africa was lowered, signifying the end of the Apartheid regime. As the world watched the transformation of South Africa taking place – without the bloodshed that the state‟s direst cynics had predicted – words like "miracle" and "inspirational" abounded. Since then, the world has continued to watch South Africa‟s transition to democracy and even those who were its greatest supporters have begun to ask questions about the quality and quantity of democratic reforms. The increasing centralisation and monopolisation of power by the African National Congress, declining rates of formal participation by citizens and considerable failures in service delivery are major factors contributing to the concerns about the long-term prospects for democracy in South Africa, especially given the record of democratic failure across the rest of the continent. While significant contributions have been made to the study of South African democracy – both theoretical and empirical – there are few, if any, that have sought to combine both these methodologies and hence the scholarship is not, in my view, paying the dividends it should. This research thus explores contemporary politics in South Africa, examining its assets and liabilities in order to provide a clearer picture of the state of democracy in the country. It does so by measuring practices in South Africa in terms of the role accorded to participation in three conceptions of democracy: liberal representative accounts, deliberative accounts and what I term the "categorical" account. In so doing the research will show that although concerns about democracy in South Africa are justified, if we shift our focus from the instrumental value of participation to its categorical one we may find a way to ensure that the miracle continues.

Full textAbstract:
Le miracle se situe aux confluents de croyances et de pratiques fondamentales dans le système religieux en vigueur à la fin du Moyen Age : culte de la Vierge et des saints, dévotion aux images et aux reliques, vœux et pèlerinages. Dans la mesure où la Réforme a répudié en bloc le miracle et tout ce qui s’y rattachait, elle est généralement comprise comme une étape clé dans le « désenchantement du monde » qui verrait le christianisme être peu à peu épuré de ses éléments magiques. L’étude du miracle dans la France des années 1500-1620 montre qu’il n'en a pas été ainsi. Le savoir théorique dont le miracle était l’objet n’a guère connu de changement du début à la fin de la période considérée. On peut en dire autant des pratiques qui s’y rattachaient. Les relations que les hommes entretenaient avec les êtres surnaturels dont ils espéraient une aide tangible obéissaient à une économie du don et du contre-don depuis longtemps codifiée et qui n’évolua guère tout au long du XVIe siècle. Même les protestants, censés avoir rejeté le miracle et tout ce qui s’y rattachait, restaient partiellement fidèles aux conceptions traditionnelles. Chez les théologiens, un providentialisme radical avait réintroduit la possibilité d’interventions directes de Dieu dans le monde terrestre. Quant aux simples fidèles, ils étaient nombreux à faire encore confiance aux saints, aux vœux et aux reliques en lesquelles ils voyaient une aide efficace contre les difficultés de la vieAt the end of the Middle Ages, the miracle was at the crossroads of fundamental religious beliefs and practices : cult of the Virgin Mary and of the saints, devotion to images and relics, vows and pilgrimages. Since the Reformation has rejected the miracle as such and everything connected with it, it is often regarded as a crucial step in the « disenchantment of the world » which results in the progressive purification of Christianity of its magical elements. The analysis of miracle during the period from 1500 to 1620 in France shows that this was not the case. The theoretical comprehension of miracle remained practically unchanged through over the considered period. The same should be stated concerning the practices connected with the miracle. The relations that people had with supernatural beings whose assistance they hoped for were based on the principle of gift and counter-gift codified long time ago, which underwent no change during the sixteenth century. Even the protestants, supposed to have rejected the miracle and the beliefs and practices attached to it, shared to some extent traditional attitudes. On the theological level, a radical providentialism allowed to reintroduce the possibility of direct divine interventions in the material world. As for the simple believers, great number of them continued to rely on saints, vows and relics, which appeared to them as an efficient help against the vicissitudes of existence

Comment les Français ont perçu le miracle économique italien après la deuxième guerre mondiale, malgré les rancoeurs accumulées entre les deux pays ? C'est seulement à la fin des années cinquante que ces difficultés s'estompent véritablement. Pourquoi ce décollage économique de l'Italie à partir de l'extrême fin des années quarante et comment ses raisons ont été perçues par les dirigeants et responsables français ? De même nous avons cherché à préciser à partir de quand ces dirigeants ont pris conscience de ce remarquable essor du voisin transalpin. Nous nous sommes demandés en quoi certains débats italiens pouvaient avoir une influence sur la façon qu'ont eu les dirigeants français d'envisager des problèmes hexagonaux. La question de la construction de logements est particulièrement révélatrice de cette influence italienne au début des années cinquante. A ce titre l'étude de trois problèmes concernant les deux pays est essentielle : l'union douanière à la fin des années quarante, l'émigration italienne, le tunnel du mont Blanc. Mais tout cela suppose d'arrêter notre travail en 1963-1964 qui sont des années stratégiques en Italie tant sur les plans économique que politiqueHow French have perceived the economic miracle of Italy after second world war, in spite of accumulated resentment between the two countries ? It's only at the end of fiftee's that tese difficulties disappeared realy. Why this italian take off from extreme end of fortee's ? And how its reasons were perceived by french leaders ? In the same direction we are looking for the moment from which these leaders have understood this remarkable development of Italy. We are looking for the inflluence of interne debates of our neighbour on the french leaders way of approaching french problems. The question of housebuilding is particularly revealing of this italian influence at the beginning of fiftee's. As such the study of three problems implying the two countries, is very important : the union customs at the end of fortee's, the italian emigration and the tunnel of Mont Blanc. But all these requires to stop our study to 1963-1964 who are strategics years in Italy, economic and politic speaking

Full textAbstract:
Transplantation has revolutionised the management of end stage organ disease, and is currently the treatment of choice in many developed western nations. The success of this treatment has led to an increasing demand for it, and concomitant increase in the demand for transplantable organs. Organ scarcity is widely acknowledged as the dominant, and most persistent, problem faced in contemporary transplantation. Scarcity of available organs undergirds the gift-of-life metaphor, upon which all transplantation discourses have been founded (Fox & Swazey, 2002). Gift-of-life discourse is routinely utilised in a bid to increase donation rates and enforce a ‘construction of care’ in recognition of, and reciprocity for, the scarce and precious gift received (Sothern & Dickinson, 2011).
Shaw (2012) argued that gift-of-life rhetoric is prescriptive; directing, in large part, what can be felt and said in the context of transplantation. This can be problematic, as although transplantation undoubtedly extends life, it does not do so without incurring physiological and psychological cost. The immunosuppression regimens that recipients must adhere to and the psychosocial outcomes of transplantation mean that, in effect, transplantation may represent the exchange of one set of hardships for another (Sharp, 2006). Recipients often exist in a state of ‘persistent liminality’, caught between the worlds of the healthy and the sick (Crowley-Matoka, 2005).
This research was undertaken to explore the lived experience of transplantation. I was particularly interested in exploring how gift-of-life understandings of transplantation might influence this experience. Given the normative expectation of gratitude in response to a gift/benefit received (McCullough & Tsang, 2004) and the centrality of gratitude to gift-of-life discourse (Shaw, 2012), I was also interested in exploring gratitude in the iii context of transplantation. Participants were 19 (i.e., 13 heart, 6 liver) recipients, and 11(i.e., 1 liver, 10 kidney) prospective recipients. I conducted semi-structured interviews, and adopted an interpretative phenomenological approach to analysis.
Results indicated that a generic model cannot be applied across the range of transplantation experiences. The psychosocial experience of receiving a heart is not the same as the experience of receiving a liver, or that of receiving a kidney. Social constructions of the particular organ being received (e.g., the liver, a life-saving organ, is more ‘precious’ than the kidney, a quality-of-life organ), and of those most likely to need that organ (e.g., liver recipients are alcoholics who are responsible for their illness) shape the experience of receiving (or waiting to receive) a heart, liver, or kidney. While all participants acknowledged an awareness of gift-of-life discourse, and its potential to direct their experience (e.g., considerations of whether or not they were worthy or deserving of the gift-of-life), many reported they did not understand transplantation in this way. Recipients did not uniformly express gratitude and, here too, the particular organ being received appeared to exert an influence (e.g., heart recipients most often expressed gratitude, while many liver recipients did not report gratitude in relation to their transplant). These findings provide new insights with respect to the experience of transplantation, and also to the experience of gratitude.

Full textAbstract:
Le miraculeux se comprend comme une catégorie événementielle à connotation profane ou religieuse : c’est cette dernière, dans sa perspective chrétienne, que ce travail prend en compte. Mais afin que ce point de vue croyant puisse signifier quelque chose pour l’observateur impartial, le choix a été fait d’examiner les réactions de surprise et d’étonnement éprouvées par les bénéficiaires de ces événements. Celles-ci pourraient-elles nous informer sur ce qui a supposément lieu dans le miraculeux ? La méthodologie phénoménologique mise en place pour pouvoir répondre à cette question prend appui sur deux corpus : l’un consiste en des textes scripturaires, où les réactions de surprise et d’étonnement accompagnant les miracles sont évaluées pour comprendre comment elles opèrent dans le mécanisme de révélation à l’œuvre dans ces textes ; l’autre se compose de récits de « miraculés », interviewés dans le cadre de la méthode microphénoménologique en 1ère personne. Ces récits, une fois analysés, permettent de disposer de ressources expérientielles qui montrent la façon dont le miraculeux est éprouvé dans le vécu, comment il a surpris et bouleversé. La phénoménologie de la surprise ainsi extraite, puis confrontée à celle qui découle des récits bibliques, permet d’abord de mieux comprendre comment opèrent les affects de surprise et d’étonnement lors d’événements irruptifs dits miraculeux, et comment leur matérialité, associée à la foi des sujets-témoins, peut rendre compte de ce vécu si particulier. Le travail contribue aussi à caractériser la surprise et l’étonnement comme des outils phénoménologiques à part entière dans l’entreprise de connaissance de l’humain face à ce qui le dépasseThe miraculous can be understood as a category of event, either profane or religious. Only the latter, in its Christian perspective, will be dealt with in this present work. But in order for this believer’s point of view to mean anything to the impartial observer, the choice has been made to examine the reactions of surprise and wonder felt by the beneficiaries of these unusual events. Could these reactions inform us about what supposedly takes place in the miraculous? The phenomenological methodology which has been implemented in order to answer this question relies on two corpuses: one consists in a set of New Testament texts, in which the reactions of surprise and wonder which accompany the miracles are evaluated to understand how they operate in the mechanism of revelation at work in those texts; the other is composed of narratives told by beneficiaries of miracles who have been interviewed within the frame of the micro-phenomenological 1st person method. Once they have been transcribed and analyzed for their emotional content, these narratives make available experiential resources which exemplify how the miraculous is lived by the beneficiaries, how it surprised and overwhelmed them. The phenomenology of surprise thus brought forward and confronted to that which can be drawn from Scripture narratives enables, first, to understand better how affects of surprise and wonder operate during so-called miraculous irruptive events, and how their materiality, can account for such an experience. But the work also aims at characterizing surprise and wonder as full-fledged phenomenological tools usable for the understanding of the human reality confronted to what exceeds it

A produção do arquiteto carioca Sergio Bernardes (1919/2002) é tão vasta quanto desconhecida. Assertivo e questionador, desde o início da carreira mostrou-se avesso à formatações conceituais, estilísticas ou projetuais. Graduado em 1948 pela Universidade do Brasil, atuou até os anos 1990 no campo alargado do projeto com significativa mudança da escala projetual nos anos 1960/70. Experimentando o aço como partido estrutural da arquitetura, aventurou-se pelo universo das geometrias não euclidianas, pendurou pavilhões como ponte e residenciais como teleférico; testou materiais leves na construção; impulsionou a produção industrial desenvolvendo elementos para fabricação em série. Num caminho ambicioso entre associações multidisciplinares do conhecimento, pesquisa laboratorial e investigação experimental no canteiro, perseguiu uma espécie de idealismo sistêmico, fundamentado num virtuosismo tecnológico. De arquiteto a inventor social , Bernardes reafirmou a crença no sujeito moderno, no poder da razão, na potência do projeto e numa ação preventiva do futuro. No contexto arquitetônico brasileiro dos anos 1960/70, apostou alto na renovação de sua arquitetura, aproveitando-se da proximidade com o poder militar, principalmente, durante o período de pujança econômica (alta concentração de rendas) e desenvolvimento progressista do país sob a Ditadura, o assim chamado período do milagre brasileiro (1968/73). Momento em que o arquiteto assume protagonismo na construção da então recém inaugurada capital federal – Brasília. Esta pesquisa analisa quatro projetos emblemáticos de Sergio Bernardes para Brasília – a sede do Instituto Brasileiro do Café – IBC (1968/71); o edifício do Ministério da Marinha – MM (1970/73); a Escola Superior de Guerra (1970/74) e o Monumento ao Pavilhão Nacional (1972) –, todos destinados ao governo militar e realizados no período do milagre , buscando entender em que medida eles significaram uma possibilidade sem precedentes para sua arquitetura e, ao mesmo tempo, abriram o caminho da maldição que assombra sua obra desde então.
The production of the Brazilian and native of Rio de Janeiro architect Sergio Bernardes is as vast as unknown. Assertive and questioner, since the beginning of his career, he presented himself against the conceptual, stylistic and projective formats. Graduated in 1948 at the Universidade do Brasil, he worked until 1990s in the large field of the project with abrupt change in the architectonical scale of the 1960s and 1970s. Starting from the experimentation of more restrict and defined programs, he interspersed a complex universe of the megastructures and headed prospective and visionary to the territory scale. By experimenting steel as structural source of architecture, he threw himself into the universe of the non euclidianas geometries; he hung pavilions as bridges, houses as cable cars; tested light materials in the construction, and increased the industrial production through the development of elements for series manufacturing. Through an ambitious way of multidisciplined associations of knowledge, laboratorial research and experimental investigation of the construction site, he pursued a type of systemic idealism, based on a technological virtuousism. From architect to a social inventor , he reassured his belief in the modern individual, in the power of reason, in the potency of the project and in a preventive action of future. In the Brazilian architectonical context of the 1960s and 70s, he truly believed in the renovation of his architecture, taking advantage of the good relationship he had with the Military, especially, during a period of economical force (concentration of incomes) and the progressive development of the country during the Dictatorship era, the Brazilian Miracle (1968/73). A moment in which, the architect takes over the protagonism of the just built, Federal Capital, Brasilia. This research is about four of the Sergio Bernardes emblematic projects for Brasilia– Instituto Brasileiro do Café – IBC (1968/71); Ministério da Marinha – MM (1970/73); Escola Superior de Guerra (1970/74); Monumento ao Pavilhão Nacional (1972) – all destined to the military government and finished within the period of time called the miracle , in order to understand how much of a possibility without precedents they meant for his architecture, and at the same time, how much of this opened the way to a curse that haunts his work since then.

Full textAbstract:
Masters of Artstudy analyses the concept of al-Karāmah al-Sūfīyah (the Sufi Saintly Miracle) in both its religious and literary dimensions. The researcher will shed more light on this genre of narrative literary phenomena by developing its definition and placing it in the social and historical context of the Sufi thought as a whole. Many communities in the Islamic world embrace and practice the Sufi doctrine and also believe in the Ṣūfī Sheikhs’ saintly miracles and its paranormal aspects, which they also consider to be parallel in its sacredness to the miracles of the Prophets. Furthermore, in this study the researcher will not only focus on the religious significance of the saintly miracle but also on their literary approach and aesthetic dimensions. In fact many of the contemporary Arab scholars and Litterateurs categorize this narrative discourse to fall under the cloak of al-Adab al-‘ajāibī (miraculous literature) due to the nature of its narrative style and structure from which it achieves its goals, such as: Myth – Legend – Superstition – Storytelling, etc. The study will be mainly qualitative. It is a content analysis study in the sense that the researcher will analyse the stylistic, formal and rhetorical techniques of the saintly miracles’ discourse with specific reference to extracts taken from al- Sheikh al-Hassan al- Shadili and al-Sheikh Abdelssalam Bin Machich. The study will use an eclectic theoretical and conceptual framework which combines the historical approach with the reception theory.
