Abstract:
Although ethnography has been a methodology used for years by anthropologists and sociologists, few researchers have entered the homes of children for extended periods of time in order to observe childhood and childrearing practices. The methodology discussed in this article notably permits the researcher to observe child socialization among family members first-hand. Based on seven-months of ethnographic observations among four families from differing social backgrounds in the Ile-de-France region of France, the article discusses how this recorded participant ethnography was set up. The article shows that the researcher held different roles in the families and that these roles varied according to social milieu. Through first analyzing the conditions of these observations among the families, the article provides empirical evidence of the social differentiation of children's daily lives.

Abstract:
In this article, the author reflects on how complementing an interview-based methodological approach with participation may be conducive to creating nuanced knowledges about processes of identification, belonging and marginalization. The thoughts he elaborates on emerge from two experiences of fieldwork conducted with gender and sexual minority migrants in the UK and France. He dwells on the uses that social researchers make of some well-established methods when doing research fieldwork: participant observation, researcher’s distance, and positionality. In so doing, the author activates the queer signifier to help us think through how the words researchers use, and where they are situated, influence their sensibilities as investigators of the social.

Veillard, Hélène. "Les lauréat·es : ce que l'ERC fait aux professions scientifiques. Les cas des sciences de l'univers et de l'histoire en France." Electronic Thesis or Diss., université Paris-Saclay, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024UPASU002.
Abstract:
À l'intersection d'une sociologie des professions scientifiques, des sciences et de l'action publique, cette thèse analyse les interactions entre un dispositif particulier de financement sur projet de la recherche européenne d'« excellence », celui de l'European Research Council (ERC), et les logiques de carrières professionnelles des chercheur·es en sciences de l'univers et en histoire, ceci dans le contexte universitaire français. Ancrée dans les travaux étudiant les modifications de la recherche sous l'effet de ce mode de management du financement sur projet, cette thèse étudie la façon dont les identités des chercheur·es, mais aussi les relations individuelles et collectives de la science se reconfigurent à partir de l'appel à projet spécifique que constitue l'ERC. Ainsi, à partir du cas de la sélection d'individus et de projets d'« excellence », ce travail interroge la fabrique des « lauréat·es » à travers un jeu intriqué d'incitations institutionnelles au dépôt de projets, de configurations de marchés universitaires nationaux et internationaux, ainsi que de logiques de fonctionnement et de cultures épistémiques plurielles.Alors que le dispositif sociotechnique de l'ERC à l'échelle européenne et les mesures incitatives au niveau national concourent à renforcer le financement d'une recherche exploratoire, individuelle et d'« excellence », comment dans ce cadre les scientifiques lauréat·es conçoivent-ils·elles leur candidature et l'obtention du projet à l'ERC ? En prenant le parti de suivre les cheminements et les différentes étapes suivies par les lauréat·es dans le cours de « leurs » projets, cette thèse scrute les cheminements individuels vers le statut de candidat·e en identifiant quatre logiques d'engagement (idée, financement, indépendance et carrière). La rédaction du projet questionne quant à elle les formes d'adéquation, d'adaptation et de traduction de soi et de son projet dans la candidature selon la perception des attendus du financeur. Le projet obtenu, c'est à la question de l'identité de chercheur·e des lauréat·es à laquelle nous nous intéressons en analysant les modalités de mise en œuvre d'un « collectif personnalisé en mode projet », non exempt d'un souci du collectif et des carrières d'autrui. Enfin, l'analyse revient de façon plus générale sur les effets de l'ERC sur les trajectoires des scientifiques des deux disciplines observées depuis le point de vue des enquêté·es, interrogeant ainsi l'émergence de voies contemporaines de carrières scientifiques renouveléesThis doctoral dissertation explores the ramifications of a specific European research funding initiative, namely the European Research Council (ERC), within the broader context of the sociology of scientific professions, science, and public action. Focused on researchers in the realms of universe sciences and history within the academic landscape of French universities, this study systematically examines the transformative impact induced by the ERC's project-based funding paradigm on the dynamics of research. Scrutinizing alterations in the identities of researchers and the intricate fabric of both individual and collective scientific relationships, the thesis closely examines the distinct call for projects put forth by the ERC. By analyzing the selection processes leading to the identification of "excellent" individuals and projects, the investigation dissects the intricate interplay between institutional incentives for project submissions, national and international configurations of the university market, operational logics, and a diverse array of epistemic cultures.The socio-technical framework of the European Research Council (ERC) at the European level and the incentive policies at the national level are strategically devised to enhance the support for exploratory, individual, and "excellent" research endeavors. In this context, an inquiry arises: How do the recipients of ERC grants perceive their application process to the ERC and evaluate the success of their respective projects? The narrative meticulously traces the trajectories of laureates throughout the lifecycle of their projects. This involves a close scrutiny of the rationales underpinning their decision to seek ERC funding, the intricacies of candidacy construction, and an exploration of the identities of laureates tasked with orchestrating personalized collectives within the project mode. The dissertation culminates in a thorough analysis of the broader implications of ERC funding on the careers of scientists in the observed disciplines, as articulated by the interviewees

Abstract:
Toute communauté suppose l'existence d'un discours performatif ayant conduit à sa reconnaissance dans le monde social. Cette idée de vivre ensemble à travers un réseau n'est pas née ex-nihilo ; elle remonte bien avant l'apparition d'Internet. Comprendre les ambitions et les espérances qui ont conduit à l'élaboration des communautés virtuelles, ainsi que leur évolution, permet, en retour, de mieux comprendre les phénomènes et les groupes actuels. L'expérience menée par Sauvons la Recherche, mobilisation de chercheurs en 2004 et plus marginalement dans les années suivantes, illustre cette nécessité d'appareiller le virtuel et le réel. Une relation menée dans le monde virtuel peut ainsi " prendre chair " et se pérenniser. A travers l'étude du concept de communauté virtuelle et son application au mouvement SLR nous tenterons de prendre la mesure de la pertinence de celui-ci Par le biais de l'échange électronique, nous nous interrogeons sur les rapports complexes entre technique et expression du conflit. L' analyse des échanges électroniques de Sauvons la recherche permet de mettre à jour une partie des processus interactionnels à l'œuvre dans ce champ particulier, et " révélés " dans un moment de crise et de tracer les contours des modalités de la domination et de la régulation incluses dans ces processus de communication.

Nande, Florence. "Identités multiples d'un salarié, bien-être au travail et performance individuelle au travail : une étude auprès des enseignants-chercheurs de l'Université Française." Thesis, Montpellier, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018MONTD010.
Abstract:
Le salarié d’aujourd’hui ne se définit plus seulement par son travail mais par rapport à toutes les expériences qu’il peut vivre. Il possède des identités multiples, issues de toutes les sphères de la vie et ces identités influencent ses actions et ont des conséquences sur son comportement. L’objectif de cette recherche est de comprendre comment les identités multiples d’un salarié interfèrent avec le contexte organisationnel (ressources et exigences) et quelles en sont les conséquences en termes de bien-être et de performance au travail. Pour cela, en s’appuyant sur la théorie de la conservation des ressources (Hobfoll, 1989), trois études empiriques ont été menées auprès d’une population d’enseignants-chercheurs d’Universités Françaises. Plusieurs contributions se dégagent de ces travaux. Premièrement, la nature du rôle médiateur des ressources dans la relation entre identités multiples, bien-être ou performance au travail a été montrée. Celle modératrice des exigences contextuelles également. Deuxièmement, cette recherche contribue à une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes identitaires en jeu. Une typologie des stratégies identitaires mises en place par le salarié en réponse aux signaux de son environnement est proposée. La structuration en réseau des identités multiples, hypothèse formulée par Ramarajan (2014) est également mise en exergue. Ainsi, dans un contexte organisationnel, le salarié est soumis aux signaux de son environnement, émanant des ressources et des exigences, qui constituent pour lui une menace ou une opportunité identitaire. En réponse, il met en place des stratégies pour contrer la menace ou saisir l’opportunité. Suivant le résultat de ces stratégies et la structure du réseau d’identités que l’individu possède, la menace ou l’opportunité identitaire peuvent se propager via le réseau dans le réservoir de ressources de l’individu provoquant spirales de perte ou de gain de ressources avec des conséquences sur son bien-être et sa performance individuelle au travailThe employees are not anymore defined by the work they accomplish, but also by the experiences they live. They have multiple identities from several spheres of life, and these identities influence their actions, and by extension have consequences on their behaviour. The aim of this research is to understand how multiple identities of an employee interfere with the organisational context (resources and exigences), and what the consequences are in term of workplace well-being and individual performance. In that line, three studies based on the resources conservation theory (Hobfoll, 1989) have been conducted with teacher-researchers. This thesis generated several contributions. First, the nature of the mediator role of resources in the relation between multiple identities, workplace well-being and individual performance have been shown. The moderator role for exigences also. Second, this research contributes to a better understanding of identity mechanism in game. A typology of identity strategies elaborated by employees in responses to their environmental signals are suggested. The network structure of multiple identities, a hypothesis expressed by Ramarajan (2014) is also verified. In that sense, in an organisational context, the employee is subjected to environmental signals (from resources and exigences) which establish for them an identity threat or an identity opportunity. In response, they build strategies. According to the results of these strategies, and the identity network structure of the person, the identity threat or identity opportunity can spread via the network within the resources reservoir of the person, generating gain or loss spiral of resources, with consequences on workplace well-being and individual performance

Abstract:
Cette thèse se propose d'étudier la problématique de la contextualisation de l'enseignement du français hors de France. Basé sur des enquêtes de terrain menées en Louisiane et en Australie Occidentale, ce travail de recherche s'inscrit dans une démarche compréhensive et cherche, d'une part, à analyser les orientations didactiques mises en œuvre pour l'enseignement du français en portant une attention particulière aux éventuelles formes de contextualisation présentes dans cet enseignement et, d'autre part, à donner des éléments de réponse explicitant les raisons de ces choix. A partir de l'étude de deux terrains présentés d'un point de vue historique et sociolinguistique, cette recherche interroge la perspective de l'enseignement du français hors de France entre universalisme et contextualisation en tentant d'éclairer sa construction et d'explorer les principaux facteurs de contextualisation, avant de proposer quelques pistes pour une évolution.

Abstract:
En France, un décret de 2018 a instauré un cadre national de la formation pédagogique pour les maîtres de conférences nouvellement recrutés tandis qu’en Suisse, les programmes de formation pédagogique à destination des jeunes enseignants-chercheurs existent depuis deux décennies suite à des initiatives locales, à l’échelle des universités. Depuis plusieurs années, la pédagogie à l’université devient un enjeu majeur des transformations au sein de l’enseignement supérieur dans un contexte d’accroissement de l’échec, des effectifs et de l’hétérogénéité des publics (Michaut et Romainville, 2006). Face à ces évolutions, le métier d’enseignant-chercheur se recompose (Annoot, 2011). En articulant divers apports scientifiques de l’apprentissage des adultes en formation et de la pédagogie universitaire, nous nous intéressons au développement professionnel d’enseignants-chercheurs novices insérés dans ces dispositifs professionnalisants (Wittorski, 2007). La recherche, menée auprès de sept enseignants-chercheurs novices appartenant à des universités distinctes, l’une française et l’autre en suisse, examine ce processus de développement professionnel à l’œuvre à l’entrée dans le métier. Le travail de thèse, à travers une analyse comparée et longitudinale réalisée sur la base d’entretiens à deux temporalités auprès de jeunes enseignants-chercheurs insérés dans des dispositifs de formation à l’enseignement, envisage de décrire et comprendre les ressources que ceux-ci mobilisent ainsi que les stratégies que les enseignants-chercheurs novices déploient au cours de leurs interactions avec leurs environnements de travail et de formation. Plus particulièrement, les transformations vécues par les novices en termes de changements de pratiques d’enseignement, de conceptions et de postures professionnelles mais aussi la perception de leurs environnements de travail et de formation ainsi que leurs caractéristiques individuelles permettent d’identifier les repères et les conditions nécessaires à leur développement professionnel. Sur la base d’un cadre d’analyse systémique, la thèse met en lumière plusieurs configurations articulant les caractéristiques des dispositifs de formation et des cadres institutionnels avec les profils des enseignants-chercheurs et leurs perceptions singulières de ces offres de formation. Les résultats de ce travail identifient des perceptions variées selon les types dispositifs proposés aux participants. De même, certaines caractéristiques individuelles dont l’expérience antérieure, et certaines variables de l’environnement de travail dont l’influence des pairs, se révèlent prédominantes dans nos configurationsIn France, a 2018 decree established a national framework for pedagogical training for newly recruited professors in higher education, while in Switzerland, pedagogical training programs for young teachers-researchers have existed for two decades following local initiatives. For several years, university pedagogy has become a major concern amid transformations in a context of increasing failure rates, enrollment, and heterogeneous student populations (Michaut and Romainville, 2006). By combining various specific contributions from adult education and university pedagogy, we are interested in the professional development of novice teacher-researchers integrated into the professionalization programs (Wittorski, 2007). This research, conducted with seven novice teacher-researchers from different universities, one in France and the other in Switzerland, examines the process of professional development at the beginning of their careers. The thesis, through a comparative and longitudinal analysis based on interviews at two time points with young teacher-researchers, aims to describe and understand the resources they mobilize as well as the strategies novice teacher-researchers deploy during their interactions with their work and training environments. Specifically, the changes experienced by novices in terms of practices, professional beliefs, and postures, as well as their perceptions of their work and training environments and their individual characteristics, help identify the reference points and conditions necessary for their professional development. Using a systemic analysis framework, the thesis highlights several configurations that combine the characteristics of training programs and institutional framework with the profiles of teacher-researchers and their unique perceptions of the training offerings. The results of this work identify distinct perceptions based on the types of programs offered to the participants. Likewise, certain individual characteristics, including prior experience, and certain variables in the work environment, particularly the influence of peers, emerge as predominant factors in our configurations

"Un possible, impossible, la co-production des connaissances entre science et société : étude de recherches collaboratives entre chercheurs et acteurs dans le cadre du dispositif "Partenariat Institutions Citoyens pour la Recherche et l‘Innovation" (PICRI) en Ile de France." Thesis, Paris, CNAM, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015CNAM1107/document.
Abstract:
Un possible, impossible, la coproduction des connaissances entre science et société. La recherche est une activité sociale principalement déléguée aux chercheurs professionnels au sein des laboratoires académiques ou privés, dans une certaine mise à distance du reste de la société. A la faveur du « tournant participatif », des acteurs de la société civile sont invités aux côtés des chercheurs professionnels, par de nouveaux dispositifs de financement de la recherche, à contribuer à la production de connaissances nouvelles dans des domaines d’intérêt sociétal. Que se passe-t-il dans ces recherches collaboratives? Des connaissances scientifiques peuvent-elles y être co-construites ? Et de telles collaborations sont-elles en mesure de renouveler les modes de production de la connaissance déléguée aux chercheurs ? C’est au travers d’un regard qui postule la question de la traduction comme majeure dans l’émergence d’une possible co-construction entre acteurs et chercheurs qu’est conduite cette étude de dispositif de recherche collaborative. La traduction implique des plans multiples de l’interaction qui sont autant des manières de passer entre les registres de connaissances et les intérêts des uns et des autres que des interprétations qu’ils produisent pour leur donner du sens. Cette dimension centrale de la traduction entre des mondes scientifiques et associatifs est abordée dans une double perspective épistémologique. Une première approche issue de la sociologie de la traduction permet de saisir comment acteurs et chercheurs s’associent et relient leurs différentes identités et intérêts, ainsi que leurs savoirs et les différents objets de recherche pour réaliser des inscriptions scientifiques. Il en émerge des agencements collaboratifs dont les configurations plurielles témoignent de conditions de co-construction. Une seconde approche mobilise l’herméneutique de la traduction pour rendre compte des capacités d’interprétation et d’apprentissage qui peuvent émerger de ces collaborations de recherche. Elle place au cœur des interactions les capacités de délibération et de reconnaissance qui orientent les agencements collaboratifs vers une capacité collective de recherche.A l’issue de cette analyse, l’identification de conditions d’interaction favorisant la co-construction de connaissances entre acteurs de la société civile et chercheurs professionnels permet de réinterroger la possibilité d’inscrire, au côté des modes dominants de production scientifique, un mode de coproduction qui participe d’un renouvellement des rapports entre science et sociétéA possible, impossible, the co-production of knowledge between science and society. Research is primarily a social activity delegated to professional researchers in academic and private laboratories, with a certain distancing from the rest of society. Taking advantage of the "participatory turn", actors in civil society are invited alongside professional researchers, with new research funding arrangements, to contribute to the production of new knowledge in areas of societal interest. What is happening in this collaborative research? Can scientific knowledge be co-constructed? And are such collaborations able to renew the modes of production of knowledge delegated to researchers?It is from this way of looking at things that the question is posited regarding translation as a major premise in the emergence of a possible joint construction between civil society actors and researchers who are driving this collaborative research plan. Translating involves multiple planes of interaction which are in as many ways, ways of passing between different people's different registers of knowledge and interests as they are interpretations which are produced to give these registers meaning. This central dimension of translation between scientific and associative worlds is addressed in a double epistemological perspective. A firstly sociological approach to translation captures how actors and researchers combine and link their different identities and interests and their knowledge and different research objects to achieve scientific inscriptions. Collaborative arrangements emerge from this with various configurations which demonstrate the conditions of co-construction. A second approach mobilizes the hermeneutics of translation to account for interpretation and learning abilities that can emerge from these research collaborations. It places deliberation and recognition capabilities at the heart of interactions, which guide collaborative arrangements towards a collective research capacity.Following this analysis, the identification of interaction conditions favouring the co-construction of knowledge between civil society actors and professional researchers can re-examine the possibility of including, alongside the dominant modes of scientific production, a way of co-producing which is part of a renewal of the relationship between science and society

Públio, Marcelo Abilio. ""Viens, prends place, nous partons pour l'espace..." : enjeux et politiques de diffusion des savoirs historiques, scientifiques et spatiaux auprès des jeunes publics à la télévision : le cas des dessins animés produits et diffusés en France entre 1975 et 1997." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Amiens, 2021. http://www.theses.fr/2021AMIE0016.
Abstract:
Cette thèse propose une analyse de la production et de la diffusion des séries de dessins animés en France entre 1975 et 1997 à travers le prisme des représentations de l'histoire, des sciences et de la conquête spatiale. Les bornes chronologiques de notre étude partent de l'éclatement de l'ORTF jusqu'à l'année de la consolidation de l'utilisation de l'ordinateur comme outil de production effectif dans l'animation. Pour l'analyse des séries, nous mettons en parallèle les contextes sociaux, politiques, économiques et technoscientifiques de l'époque. Les enjeux et les politiques sont multiples. D'abord, le contexte de guerre froide et de conquête spatiale mène à une politique mondiale de valorisation des sciences et des techniques. Puis, en France, les changements politiques issus de l'arrivée de la gauche au pouvoir conduisent à des modifications à la fois techniques et économiques qui influencent l'évolution de la télévision française. La culture française de la mise en valeur des connaissances à la télévision à travers les missions d'informer, d'éduquer et de distraire est centrale dans ce contexte. Finalement, les partenariats avec les Japonais (diffusion de séries japonaises sur les chaînes françaises et les contrats de coproduction et de sous-traitance) influencent l'esthétique et les récits des productions françaises. Pour une question de coûts de production, l'esthétique du dessin animé sur celluloïd s'impose. Tout cela influence la façon dont les séries d'animation télévisées françaises sont réalisées et la façon dont elles mettent en scène les mythes scientifiques. La télévision étant un des vecteurs de diffusion grand public, les récits d'anticipation sont des moyens privilégiés pour présenter un futur lié aux technosciences. De surcroît, quand ils sont alliés à la technique du dessin animé, ces récits attirent davantage l'attention du jeune public. Dans le cadre de cette recherche, nous nous concentrons en particulier sur les séries réalisées par la maison de production Procidis – Il était une fois... l'Homme (1978), Il était une fois… l'Espace (1981), Il était une fois... la Vie (1986), Il était une fois... les Amériques (1991), Il était une fois... les Découvreurs (1994) et Il était une fois... les Explorateurs (1996) – ; et celles réalisées par la maison de production DIC – Ulysse 31 (1981) et Les Mystérieuses cités d'or (1982). Le discours technophile de ces séries a un objectif promotionnel qui tend à préparer les esprits des enfants et adolescents à un nouveau rapport aux sciences et techniques, et potentiellement aux nouveaux marchés qui leur sont liésThe study of the production and distribution of cartoon series in France between 1975 and 1997 is the issue of this PhD. The chronological limits of our study start from the break-up of the ORTF until the year of the consolidation of the use of the computer as an effective production tool in animation. For the analysis of the series, we put in parallel the social, political, economic and technoscientific contexts of the time. The issues and policies arising from this context are very diverse. First, the context of the cold war and the conquest of space lead to a global policy of promoting sciences and technologies. Then, in France, the political changes resulting from the election of François Mitterand lead to technical and economic changes which influence the evolution of French television. The French culture of promoting knowledge on television through the missions of informing, educating and entertaining cannot be ignored. Finally, partnerships with the Japanese (broadcasting of Japanese series on French channels and co-production and subcontracting contracts) have a great influence on the aesthetics and narratives of French productions. To lay down the production costs, the aesthetics of celluloid cartoon is essential. All of these issues influence the way French television animated series are made and the way they portray scientific myths. We are therefore trying to understand the influences of social, political, economic and technological contexts on the stories and aesthetics in the series "made in France". Furthermore, TV is one of the vectors of sciences dissemination to the general public ; Sci-Fi stories are a privileged way of presenting this technoscientific future. In addition, these stories mixed with the cartoon techniques attract more attention from young audiences. As part of this research, we are focusing in particular on the series produced by the Procidis studios - Il était une fois... l'Homme (1978), Il était une fois… l'Espace (1981), Il était une fois... la Vie (1986), Il était une fois... les Amériques (1991), Il était une fois... les Découvreurs (1994) et Il était une fois... les Explorateurs (1996) ; and those produced by the DIC studios - Ulysse 31 (1981) and Les Mystérieuses cités d’or (1982). Their tech-savvy speeches apparently have a promotional objective that tends to prepare minds for new markets related to sciences and technologies

Darroman, Mélanie. "Renaissance de l'habitat participatif en France : vers de nouvelles formes négociées de fabrication de la ville ? Deux études de cas dans l'agglomération bordelaise : le projet HNord (Bordeaux) et La Ruche (Bègles)." Thesis, Bordeaux, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014BORD0485.
Abstract:
Cette thèse interroge les effets combinés des enjeux d’un urbanisme durable et d’un impératif participatif grandissant des habitants – usagers – citoyens, dans le cadre de la fabrication métropolitaine contemporaine. Depuis le début des années 2000, des expériences alternatives d’habitat émergent en France sous l’impulsion de revendications sociales portées par la société civile. Le terme générique d’« habitat participatif », définit récemment par la loi pour l’Accès au Logement et à un Urbanisme Négocié (ALUR), publiée au Journal Officiel le 26 mars 2014, rassemble ainsi d’une même voix la variété de ces initiatives à l’œuvre, contribuant à pérenniser les dynamiques de structuration et de diffusion d’un mouvement de l’habitat participatif. Faisant référence aux expressions citoyennes contestataires des années 1970-1980, avec la critique d’un urbanisme moderne et des politiques publiques, les projets actuels marquent la renaissance des questionnements autour de la place de la maîtrise d’usage – incarnée par les habitants-usagers – dans la chaîne de production des logements et, plus largement, dans les processus décisionnels d’aménagement des territoires. Porteuse de pratiques participatives innovantes, la résurgence de l’habitat participatif révèle des logiques diverses d’engagements citoyens, militants ou professionnels, et des formes négociées de fabrication de l’habitat. Dès lors, s’opposent des dynamiques « bottom-up » – illustrées par des demandes et des initiatives habitantes, et des dynamiques « top-down » – portées par des instances politico-institutionnelles en plein renouvellement de leurs modes d’action et savoir-faire. Supportée par une trame multidimensionnelle de négociations, la thèse propose alors une analyse des interactions et des formes d’hybridation de cette production collective en cours à travers trois dimensions : la dimension valorielle, pour fixer le socle des transactions sociales ; la dimension organisationnelle et relationnelle, pour observer la micropolitique des groupes-projets ; la dimension processuelle, pour saisir les temporalités du projet et les moments clés de la négociation sur l’ensemble du processus. Pour cela, nous nous appuyons sur deux cas d’étude dans l’agglomération bordelaise, en pleine métropolisation : le cas de la coopérative d’habitants HNord, sur l’îlot Dupaty à Bordeaux ; et celui d’un projet d’habitat participatif multi-partenarial, La Ruche, sur la commune de Bègles au sein de l’Opération d’Intérêt National (OIN) Bordeaux-Euratlantique. Encadrée par un dispositif CIFRE avec l’Etablissement Public d’Aménagement Bordeaux-Euratlantique (EPA), la recherche repose sur une approche ethnographique, basée sur de nombreuses situations d’observation participante, des entretiens d’acteurs cibles et une analyse documentaire. Les enquêtes menées à différentes échelles offrent une vision macro, méso et microsociale des processus de production et de diffusion de l’habitat participatif. Les résultats de la thèse mettent alors en évidence les modalités de partenariats entre différentes sphères d’acteurs – les habitants, les institutions et les experts – dans la production de l’habitat participatif conduisant à un changement de paradigme sociétal et professionnel à travers le renouvellement des modes d’habiter, des savoirs et savoir-faire. Ainsi, nous proposons une réflexion sur les moyens et possibilités d’intégration de cette dynamique collective et citoyenne au sein des processus décisionnels d’aménagement urbain pour la fabrication métropolitaine et, de voir en quoi ce phénomène participatif et collaboratif peut-il constituer un outil de management territorial novateur préfigurant le futur de nos citésThis PhD thesis questions the combined effects of the challenges of sustainable urban development and a growing priority for inhabitants – users – citizens, to participate in contemporary metropolitan production. Since the early 2000s, there is in France an emergence of alternative housing experiences as a result of social demands. The generic term of « participative housing », recently defined by the bill for access to housing and urban renovation (ALUR), published in the Official Journal on March 26, 2014, gathers with one voice, the variety of these initiatives at work, contributing to ensure the dynamic structuring and dissemination of the participative housing movement. Referring to the civil protests of 1970-1980, criticizing modern urban planning and public policy, the current projects tackle once again of how to combine the inhabitants expertise with professional expertise in the production of housing, and more broadly in the decision-making processes of regional planning. Producing innovative participatory practices, the resurgence of participative housing reveals different logics of social commitments on the part of citizens, activists and professionals, and negotiated forms of housing production. As a consequence, the « bottom-up » dynamic, based on the demands and initiatives of the inhabitants, opposes the « top-down » dynamic, based on the initiative of politico-institutional bodies in full renewal of their modes of action and know-how. Supported by a multi-dimensional framework of negotiations, the thesis analyzes the interactions and forms of hybridization of this ongoing collective production through a three dimensional approach : the value related dimension, to set the base of social transactions ; the organizational and relational dimension to observe the micro-political groups-projects ; the procedural dimension to grasp the temporality of the project and the key moments of negotiation of the whole process. For this, we build on two case studies in the Bordeaux area, being subject to processes of metropolization : the case of the residents cooperative HNord in the Dupaty housing block in Bordeaux ; and the multi-partnered participative housing project, La Ruche, in the town of Bègles within the framework of the « Operation of National Interest » (OIN) Bordeaux-Euratlantique. Governed by a CIFRE program with the « Local Planning and Development authority » (EPA) Bordeaux-Euratlantique, the research is based on an ethnographic approach : participant observation, interviews with target stakeholders and a literature review. The investigations conducted at different scales offer a macro, meso and micro-social understanding of the process of participative housing production and dissemination. The results of the thesis highlight the partnership conditions between different groups of stakeholders – inhabitants, institutions and expertsn – in the production of participative housing leading to a societal and professional paradigm shift through a renewal of ways of living, knowledge and expertise. Thus, we propose a reflection on ways and possibilities how to integrate this collective and civic dynamics in the decision-making processes of urban planning for metropolitan production and to see how this participatory and collaborative phenomenon can serve as an innovative tool in territorial management for our future cities

Al, iftaihat Yassir. "La mise en oeuvre de la responsabilité civile dans le dispositif juridique régissant les recherches biomédicales : Une étude comparative entre le droit français et le droit irakien." Thesis, Lyon 2, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011LYO22018.
Abstract:
Les recherches biomédicales se sont imposées comme une nécessité sociale et leur place n’a pas cessé de prendre de l’importance dans le domaine médical. Leur encadrement juridique commence en 1988 avec la loi « Huriet », qui vient de mettre en place un régime de responsabilité civile régissant cette activité.Ce régime renforce la protection des victimes (et de leurs ayants droit) de recherches biomédicales en simplifiant la procédure d’indemnisation. Seul le tribunal de grande instance est compétent pour connaître des litiges en la matière et ce même s’il s’agit d’un promoteur du secteur public qui relève normalement du juge administratif. Le délai de prescription est de dix ans car les dommages ne peuvent pas apparaître immédiatement après la fin de la recherche. La victime et ses ayants droit peuvent demander l’indemnisation des dommages matériels et moraux subis à l’occasion de la réalisation de la recherche. Dans les cas où la responsabilité du promoteur n’est pas engagée, la victime peut toujours demander une indemnisation à l’ONIAM, en déposant une demande auprès de la CRCI. La loi « Huriet » devrait concilier l’intérêt de la société avec ses valeurs fondamentales, et trouver le juste équilibre permettant d’assurer une protection parfaite aux individus se prêtant à ces recherches, sans entraver leur développementBiomedical research has emerged as a social necessity. Its importance has continued to grow in the medical field. Its legal framework began in 1988 with the law "Huriet", which established a civil liability governing this activity.Today’s legal system increases the protection of victims (and their dependents) of biomedical research by simplifying the procedures for plaintiffs to receive compensation. Only the High Court has the jurisdiction to hear disputes in this area and even if he is a proponent of the public sector is normally the administrative judge. The limitation period is ten years since the damage may not appear immediately at the end of the research. The victim and his/her dependents are entitled to compensation for material and moral damages incurred in connection with the conduct of research. In cases where the liability of the promoter is not involved, the victim can still claim compensation from the ONIAM by filing an application with the CRCI.The law "Huriet" should reconcile the interests of the society with its core values, and find the right balance to ensure a perfect protection to individuals suitable for this research, without hindering their development
لقد فرضت الابحاث الطبية الحيوية كضرورة اجتماعية واتخذت أهمية لا يمكن الاستغناء عنها في المجال الطبي. وحيث ان تنفيذها على الكائن البشري أصبح مطردا، فان إحاطتها بقانون متكامل أصبح امرا لا مفر منه، وقد بدأ ذلك الأمر بتشريع قانون عام 1988 والذي اتى بالجديد عندما أحاط تنفيذ الابحاث الطبية على الكائن البشري بنظام مسؤولية مدنية. هذا النظام هدفه تدعيم حماية المشاركين بالبحث من خلال تعويض المتضرر منهم او خلفه العام من خلال تبسيط اجراءات التعويض. فحدد هذا القانون الاختصاص حصريا بالمحكمة البدائية في النظر بالخصومات المتعلقة بتنفيذ الابحاث الطبية على الكائن البشري، حتى لو كان القائم على تنفيذ البحث شخص من القانون العام. والذي من المفترض ان يكون الاختصاص حينها للقاضي الاداري. هذا وقد حدد قانون عام 1988 مدة التقادم بعشرة سنوات من وقت انتهاء تنفيذ البحث، لان الاضرار قد لا تظهر إلا بعد مدة من تنفيذ البحث. فالمتضرر أو خلفه العام يستطيعون المطالبة بالتعويض على الاضرار المادية والادبية التي نجمت عن تنفيذ البحث الطبي. لكن في حالة اثبات عدم وجود خطا من القائم بالبحث الطبي أي انه غير مسؤول عن الاضرار، فان المتضرر يحق له حينها بموجب هذا القانون اللجوء إلى المطالبة بالتعويض من خلال الهيئة الوطنية للتعويض عن الحوادث الطبية. خلاصة القول، إن قانون عام 1988 سعى لايجاد موازنة ما بين الفائدة التي تعود على المجتمع من تنفيذ البحث وبين ضمان حماية المشارك بالبحث بالشكل الذي يكفل حرمة الجسد البشري دون ان يؤدي ذلك إلى وضع العقبات أمام تنفيذ الابحاث الهامة للمجتمع

Abstract:
The monograph is devoted to the literary and scientific heritage of the famous French writer, historian, philosopher, thinker, diplomat and statesman F. R. de Chateaubriand, whose scientific works were practically unknown to the Russian reader for many decades. Being the founder of French romanticism and laying the main elements of this direction of culture, F. R. de Chateaubriand nevertheless causes numerous disputes and questions. The monograph shows the process of formation of the writer's romantic worldview on the example of his early works, which still retain traces of the literature of the XVIII century and already carry new romantic trends of the XIX century. The author also presents the facts of the writer's biography and analyzes a number of his historical works devoted to medieval France. From the Renaissance until the end of the XVIII century, one of the elements of medieval architecture and Christian religion-Gothic architecture — was perceived as something negative, barbaric, rude, completely inconsistent with the aesthetics of the XVI — XVIII centuries. F. R. de Chateaubriand was one of the first researchers who discovered the beauty of Gothic churches and the color of national history to the mass reader at the turn of the XVIII—XIX centuries. The rehabilitation of Gothic architecture was accomplished by F. R. de Chateaubriand in his Treatise "the genius of Christianity". The famous "forest theory" of the origin of Gothic helped to "remove" negative assessments of the middle Ages and influenced the formation and development of romanticism both in France and in other European countries. It was F. R. de Chateaubriand's idea of the relationship between medieval architecture and Christian consciousness that influenced all the subsequent development and formation of the history of medieval art. For a wide range of readers interested in the history of literature.

Abstract:
The monograph describes the influence of the natural environment and its natural and climatic conditions on human life and socio-economic systems, which are considered as regions, territories of Eastern Europe. The natural and climatic factors (PCFs) characterizing the natural environment of Eastern Europe (Russia and Ukraine) and Western (England and France) are considered. Eastern Europe is in the zone of negative PCFs, close to critical.
The influence of the PCF on the vital activity of the state and man is systematically described: mentality, systemic thinking, human health, ensuring the safety of life, sustainability of development, agricultural production, housing and communal services, construction, industry, information security, parrying of the PCF, the influence of the PCF on the development of science and education. Climate change trends at the global and regional levels are also described.
Estimates of the impact of the PCF on the economy of the state and regions, recommendations on the adaptation of the economy to the PCF, the relationship of information security and information about the PCF, information technologies for assessing the sustainability of development and investment attractiveness of territories, conceptual foundations of state anti-crisis management of socio-economic systems are presented.
It is intended for researchers, teachers, postgraduates, students specializing in the field of life safety, computer ecological and economic monitoring. It can be used to educate society in the field of the natural environment and its natural and climatic conditions.

Abstract:
In chapter 11, Zoltan Pall and Mohamed-Ali Adraoui provide a snapshot of stories from their practical experiences conducting research on Salafis in Lebanon, Kuwait, and France in order to illustrate how to deal with Salafis as subjects of social science inquiry and to provide broader lessons for future researchers. They discuss the challenges and difficulties they faced while conducting fieldwork that came from the Salafis’ distrust of western researchers. They also elaborate how did they overcome these challenges and difficulties by clearly stating their intentions and embedding themselves to the local societies. The authors also provide insights how local sociopolitical actors might engage with the researchers of Salafism, and share their experiences to deal with them.

Velmet, Aro. Pasteur's Empire. Oxford University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190072827.001.0001.
Abstract:
In the 1890s, the Pasteur Institute established a network of laboratories that stretched across France’s empire, from Indochina to West Africa. Quickly, researchers at these laboratories became central to France’s colonial project, helping officials monopolize industries, develop public health codes, establish disease containment measures, and arbitrate political conflicts around questions of labor rights, public works, and free association. Pasteur’s Empire shows how the scientific prestige of the Pasteur Institute came to depend on its colonial laboratories and how, conversely, the institutes themselves became central to colonial politics. This book argues that decisions as small as the isolation of a particular yeast or the choice of a laboratory animal could have tremendous consequences on the lives of Vietnamese and African subjects, who became the consumers of new vaccines or industrially fermented intoxicants. Simultaneously, global forces, such as the rise of international standards and American competitors, pushed Pastorians to their imperial laboratories, where they could conduct studies that researchers in France considered too difficult or controversial. Chapters follow not just Alexandre Yersin’s studies of the plague, Charles Nicolle’s public health work in Tunisia, and Constant Mathis’s work on yellow fever in Dakar, but also the activities of Vietnamese doctors, African students and politicians, Syrian traders, and Chinese warlords. It argues that a specifically Pastorian understanding of microbiology shaped French colonial politics across the world, allowing French officials to promise hygienic modernity while actually committing to minimal development.

Abstract:
AbstractIn recent years, the body of research on artificial intelligence (AI) has grown rapidly. As the European Union strives for excellence in AI development, this study aims to establish the publication achievements in the field among its member states between 2010 and 2019. We applied clustering and principal component analysis (PCA) on a set of bibliometric data concerning research publications on AI obtained from Scopus. The results reveal that while the union’s most populous countries—the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy—were the most prolific producers of AI publications between 2010 and 2019, the highest impact was noted for publications that originated in the Nordic and Benelux countries, as well as in Austria and Ireland. Analysis confirms that the division between ‘old’ and ‘new’ member states has endured: the nations that joined the EU after 2004 recorded the lowest results in scientific output and impact in the AI field. This study can assist research agencies and researchers in developing a broad grasp of the current state of AI research.

Abstract:
AbstractHere we turn to the strategies that young people use to prevent chemical harms, not just those related to single chemicals but also those related to the feedback loops and compounding effects generated by the multiplicity of chemicals in daily life. Chemical Futures takes as an example youth activists in France, the Générations Cobayes, and their mobilization against endocrine-disrupting chemicals. We examine what contributes to the relative invisibility of toxic risk, pointing especially to the role of corporations in generating uncertainty about scientific evidence. The ChemicalYouth project engaged in a range of collaborative, youth-led projects that demonstrate the many ways youth may be engaged in “harm reduction from below.” We suggest that a ChemicalYouth 2.0 project might involve a wider range of researchers, advisors, and laboratories, to make more visible the multiple toxicities that make up young people’s everyday lives. Finally, we argue that governments should team up with youth and complement their efforts with “harm reduction from above” initiatives to regulate unsafe chemicals and support youths’ efforts to observe the effects of chemicals on their bodies and share information with others.

Abstract:
This chapter is a photo essay which presents twelve images selected from among those collected by the Play Observatory in the UK, along with a commentary further outlining the context. This was a study of children’s play experiences during the pandemic, conducted almost wholly online over a seventeen-month period, between October 2020 and March 2022. It was funded in the UK by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) as part of the UK Research Institute (UKRI) Rapid Response to Covid-19 call and was a collaboration between researchers at the IOE, University College London’s Faculty of Education and Society, the School of Education at the University of Sheffield, and the UCL Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis. A key aim of the project was to collect, analyze and preserve for future generations material from children and adults in the form of text, images, moving images and more, which represented their play experiences at such a challenging and difficult time but also demonstrated the function of play in their lives in terms of well-being and resourcefulness. The commentary which accompanies the images contains some background information. However, the authors invite readers to form their own interpretations in the light of their own experiences of Covid during 2020-2022.

Abstract:
Que voulons-nous manger?—What do we want to eat? The French government posed this question in 2000 as part of a Ministry of Agriculture project on l’Etats Generaux de l’Alimentation (EGA), or the “General State of Food.” It also recruited thousands of citizens to respond in surveys, discussion groups, and a national colloquium, which were all duly recorded, analyzed, and interpreted by market researchers. Described as an effort to promote debate and dialogue around the French public’s “true” food concerns, the EGA seemed an extraordinary overture from a government not known for soliciting public opinion on policy matters (Marris 1999). But then, it was an extraordinary time. In the previous five years, mad cows, dioxin chickens, and listeria had found their way into the French food supply; opposition to genetically modified organisms (GMOs) had mushroomed into a major political crisis; a millennial shipwreck off the Brittany coast had dumped huge quantities of potential carcinogens into some of the country’s richest fishing waters. Media coverage of these affairs had played up the roles of government officials who were either corrupt, incompetent, disingenuous, or simply unable or unwilling to address questions about possible food risks (Jaillette 2000; Mamère and Narbonne 2001). The government badly needed to show that it was listening, and that it could protect the public’s health. Yet the EGA findings, while inconclusive in many respects, did show that alleviating public anxieties about the food supply would take more than stricter safety measures (Joly and Marris 2001). For the French were concerned not only about mad cow disease and listeria, but also the loss of their culinary patrimony. In particular, they feared that globalization would force upon them the travesties of “Anglo-Saxon” food culture, from Big Macs to biotech maize. France’s fresh produce importers would probably find the EGA’s findings old but ironic news. After all, the importers had helped to globalize one prominent part of the French diet, namely fresh produce. For much of the past century France, unlike Britain, had produced much of its own fruit and vegetable supply.

In VIII International Conference “Russian Literature of the 20th-21st Centuries as a Whole Process (Issues of Theoretical and Methodological Research)”. LCC MAKS Press, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.29003/m3685.rus_lit_20-21/15-23.
Abstract:
The paper analyzes Ilya Ehrenbourg’s novel “The Fall of Parisˮ (1942) against the background of synchronic and diachronic cultural contexts. The author pays special attention to the mythologization of Paris from the middle of the 19th century and to the ideological consequences of the country’s defeat in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. The work shows the connection of the writer’s novel with the cultural background of France “between two warsˮ. The novelist’s polemical dialogue with Jean Giraudoux on the Franco-German value-cultural collisions is demonstrated. It is concluded that for Ehrenbourg, as for a number of his Western brethren and recent researchers, the fall of Paris in 1940 was a sign of the end of the entire traditional West of Modern Times, and more specifically, the era of Modernism.

In Nanotech France 2022 International Conference. SETCOR Conferences and Events, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.26799/cp-nanotechfrance2022/1.
Abstract:
Usually, the most efficient photocatalyst materials are synthesized as fine nanocrystalline powders and this rises significant handling and repetitive application issues. More recently, researchers started to immobilize photocatalyst (nano)materials on relatively large low density supports creating floating photocatalyst particles. Such approach allows to effectively retrieve and re-apply the used photocatalyst material. In current study we used reactive magnetron sputtering technique and deposited unconventional orange colour nanocrystalline ZnO based photocatalyst on floating high-density polyethylene (HDPE) grains. The structure of the synthesized photocatalyst was characterized by XRD, SEM, and XPS techniques. The repetitive measurements of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye bleaching by the ZnO based photocatalyst film under visible light irradiation showed high stability over ten cycles. Visible light induced photocatalytic efficiency of the floating photocatalyst grains (FPG) was also estimated by the repetitive treatment of water samples containing Salmonella typhimurium (strain SL1344) and Micrococcus luteus bacteria, as well as water samples containing PRD1 and T4 bacteriophages. These tests indicated complex interaction between the bacteria, viruses, photocatalyst and its HDPE support. For example, they revealed that FPGs lose most of its photocatalytic efficiency in just 3 cycles. To stabilize the ZnO based FPGs and enhance its photocatalytic efficiency under the visible light irradiation, before the depositing of ZnO films we pre-covered HDPE grains by Ni underlayer. The addition of Ni resulted in mixed results – Ni underlayer reduced the efficiency of S. typhimurium disinfection during the first cycle but increased the efficiency and detoxication stability over consecutive tests using the same set of FPGs.

Abstract:
Data and correspondences innovation (ICT) is an extensional term for data innovation (IT) that burdens the job of brought together interchanges and the reconciliation of media communications (phone lines and remote signs) and PCs, just as essential endeavor programming, middleware, stockpiling, and varying media frameworks, that empower clients to get to, store, transmit, and control data. At the most basic level, ICT encompasses all technologies that allow individuals and businesses to interact in the digital world. It is like Information Technology (IT), yet centers fundamentally around correspondence innovations. This incorporates the Internet, remote systems, mobile phones, and other correspondence mediums. There are many problems faced during International trade which can be solved by using virtual organizations for international trades. Because of globalization, numerous organizations are presently working in more than one nation which brings forth multicultural association where representatives from more than one nation are cooperating. This paper aim of the study to find the best country for international trade using virtual organization which was accompalished using Topsis method. The following European countries (Germany, Finland, Check Republic, Austria, Estonia, Denmark, France and Belgium) were analysed during years 2014 to 2018. The limitation faced was that the data for all European countries was not available.

Abstract:
The present study aimed to investigate the learning of probability with a group of students of the fourth year of elementary school in Brazil, taking into account a situation involving the concept of random events through the narrative used in a historical tale called: “Did you know that children played with the game of tiles a long time ago in France?” The Theory of Didactic Situations was used to evaluate the intervention activity that sought the development of competences and abilities related to probability. The results showed that the activities contributed to the teaching and learning of probability, and despite the students having some difficulties, their mistakes guided the teachers/researchers to think about different approaches to the appropriation of knowledge.

To ensure that adequate margins against failure are maintained throughout the vessel service life, research engineers have developed and applied computational tools to study and assess the probability of pressure vessel failure during operating and postulated loads. The Materials Ageing Institute (MAI) sponsored a benchmark study to compare the results from software developed in France, Japan and the United States to compute the probability of flaw initiation in reactor pressure vessels. This benchmark study was performed to assess the similarities and differences in the software and to identify the sources of any differences that were found. Participants in this work included researchers from EDF in France, CRIEPI in Japan and EPRI in the United States, with each organization using the probabilistic software tool that had been developed in their country. An incremental approach, beginning with deterministic comparisons and ending by assessing Conditional Probability of crack Initiation (CPI), provided confirmation of the good agreement between the results obtained from the software used in this benchmark study. This conclusion strengthens the confidence in these probabilistic fracture mechanics tools and improves understanding of the fundamental computational procedures and algorithms.

"Le rôle structurant des comités d’éthique de la recherche pour une recherche intègre et responsable : un retour d’expérience de la fédération française des CER." In 2ème Colloque International de Recherche et Action sur l’Intégrité Académique. « Les nouvelles frontières de l’intégrité ». IRAFPA, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.56240/cmb9923.
Abstract:
The research Ethics Committees (RECs) give authorization, after ethical assessment, to conduct research involving human participants, whether or not the research is for medical purposes. In France, a distinction is made between research aimed at increasing medical or biological knowledge (examined by the Committees for the Protection of Human Research Participants) and non-medical research on humans. The CERs, which are grouped in a federation of RECs. The French RECs conduct an ethical examination of the research, in particular from the point of view of the protection of participants, but do not give authorization to conduct the research it has examined. The importance of RECs is not without criticism from the researchers concerned: hegemonism, normalization, control or even censorship of research, waste of time, etc. The appropriateness of these criticisms is examined and the value of the RECs in promoting honest and responsible research is argued.

Abstract:
As the Sars-CoV2 pandemic continues to grow, researchers around the world are urgently seeking new treatments to prevent infection, cure those infected, or lessen the severity of the disease. Although there are several recently approved vaccines, clinical trials are underway to "re-use" drugs normally indicated for other diseases. This teaching experience studies the market for 8 pharmaceutical products used to fight the pandemic (remdesivir, favipiravir, lopinavir/ritonavir, chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, sofosbuvir, pyrfenidone and tocilizumab) in 13 countries (Bangladesh, Brazil, China, Egypt, France, India, Malaysia, Pakistan, South Africa, Sweden, Turkey, United Kingdom and United States). Through the analysis of prices and costs, we reflect on the difficulty of access to treatment according to the country.The objective is to deepen knowledge of the pharmaceutical market: (i) to demonstrate in a tangible way the differences between production costs and final prices of medicines, (ii) to perceive the difficulty of access to certain treatments depending on the country, (iii) to reflect on what initiatives should be implemented in an international emergency context such as the one we are experiencing.

Abstract:
Whereas the institutional drivers of the accountability discourse and the apparatus of performance evaluation accompanying such a discourse in the neoliberal university are well documented, their implications at the individual level have received lesser interest. Our paper suggests that more attention be paid to the voices and the experiences of the “governed”. It accounts of the unfairness of the accountability regime in higher education, and more specifically in business schools, as it is perceived by scholars in France. Using insights from the institutional complexity (IC) and organizational justice (OJ) literatures, as well as an empirical analysis of the French business scholars’take on their changing work context and the metrics against which their performance is assessed, our study extends the understanding of the implications of organizations’ rewards, incentives, performance control and evaluation practices for OJ. Moreover, it deconstructs the narrative of the accountability regime by reminding that institutional complexity leaves very little room for many scholars to be star researchers, excellent program managers, innovative and inclusive pedagogues as well as impactful public servants at the same time without hindering other academic missions they value (disinterested collegiality, care, social inclusion), their quality of life, family, and or health.

Abstract:
In this paper, we build a publicly-available database of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) indicators based on the methodology proposed by Azqueta-Gavaldón, Hirschbühl, Onorante and Saiz (2023), which uses topic modelling techniques to identify distinct components of EPU. This database is regularly updated and can be accessed on the Banco de España’s website. Currently, the dataset covers the four largest countries in the euro area, namely Spain, Italy, France, and Germany. Our data coverage is continually expanding to include more euro area countries. Additionally, we compute the aggregated EPU indexes for the euro area. This comprehensive dataset and the resulting euro area indexes provide valuable tools for researchers, policymakers and analysts to assess and monitor the dynamics of economic policy uncertainty in real time.

Abstract:
The URL links to a website page in the Drexel Digital Museum (DDM) fashion image archive containing a 3D interactive panorama of an evening gown by French fashion designer Christian Lacroix with related text. This evening gown by Christian Lacroix is from his Fall 1990 collection. It is constructed from silk plain weave, printed with an abstract motif in the bright, deep colors of the local costumes of Lacroix's native Arles, France; and embellished with diamanté and insets of handkerchief edged silk chiffon. Ruffles of pleated silk organza in a neutral bird feather print and also finished with a handkerchief edge, accentuate the asymmetrical draping of the gown. Ruching, controlled by internal drawstrings and ties, creates volume and a slight pouf, a nod to 'le pouf' silhouette Lacroix popularized in his collection for Patou in 1986. Decorative boning on the front of the bodice reflects Lacroix's early education as a costume historian and his sartorial reinterpretation of historic corsets. It is from the private collection of Mari Shaw. The panorama is an HTML5 formatted version of an ultra-high resolution ObjectVR created from stitched tiles captured with GigaPan technology. It is representative the ongoing research of the DDM, an international, interdisciplinary group of researchers focused on production, conservation and dissemination of new media for exhibition of historic fashion.

Powell, Alan. Why How and When did GTAP Happen? What has it Achieved? Where is it Heading? GTAP Working Paper, May 2007. http://dx.doi.org/10.21642/gtap.wp38.
Abstract:
Presented at the 10th Annual Conference on Global Economic Analysis, Purdue University, USA Team research has been much more widespread in the natural sciences than in economics. Yet when it comes to modeling an economy (especially the global economy) in detail, the quantity and range of inputs necessary makes team work the only viable option. Drawing some inspiration from Australian experience, GTAP’s founder, Tom Hertel, realized this from his Project’s inception in 1993. The data base required to model international trade flows could not have been developed without the enthusiastic cooperation of many individuals and institutions around the world. Funding GTAP’s central team at Purdue required external support. National agencies in Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Holland, Japan, and the US are members of the supporting research consortium. The natural interest of international economic agencies led to GTAP having five such supporting agencies by 1997, which grew to ten by 2006. GTAP has striven to put the maximum feasible amount of its data, methodology and models into the public domain. It has run numerous residential intensive training courses in the use of the GTAP data and model: these have been held in the US, Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America. The success of these courses reflects the modeling experience of the teams of course instructors and the availability of special-purpose software which allows simulations to be run without programming skill or previous knowledge of the software used. Researchers making use of GTAP have been prolific in number, and in their output. In mid April 2007, applications on the GTAP web site numbered 781. There were 366 subscribers to the GTAP data base at the end of April 2007, but the number of individuals making use of GTAP data exceeded 4,000.

Abstract:
One of the components of the publishing activity (book exchange) of the Ivan Franko State University of Lviv in the post-war period, in particular, in 1946-1947, when the University, while reconstructing and repairing educational buildings, etc., began to build a publishing and printing base, has been revealed. It has been established that the administration of one of the leading educational institutions at that time encouraged the scientific and pedagogical staff to write and print teaching aids, textbooks, monographs, etc. in every possible way. The article analyzes archival documents testifying to the cooperation of the rectorate of the Ivan Franko State University of Lviv with some educational institutions of Ukraine and from outside its borders in the matter of exchange of scientific works written and published by researchers of the Franko University. This article will be of particular value primarily for those who are interested in the history of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv concerning the development of the publishing business in the post-war period, as well as significant scientific works that were published within the framework of this educational institution. Keywords: book exchange, textbook, monograph, scientific notes, libraries, universities.

Abstract:
We believe the climate crisis will be resolved in cities. Today, while cities occupy only 2% of the Earth's surface, 57% of the world's population lives in cities, and by 2050, it will jump to 68% (UN, 2018). Currently, cities consume over 75% of natural resources, accumulate 50% of the global waste and emit up to 80% of greenhouse gases (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2017). Cities generate 70% of the global gross domestic product and are significant drivers of economic growth (UN-Habitat III, 2016). At the same time, cities sit on the frontline of natural disasters such as floods, storms and droughts (De Sherbinin et al., 2007; Major et al., 2011; Rockström et al., 2021). One of the sustainability pathways to reduce the environmental consequences of the current extract-make-dispose model (or the "linear economy") is a circular economy (CE) model. A CE is defined as "an economic system that is based on business models which replace the 'end-of-life' concept with reducing, alternatively reusing, recycling and recovering materials in production/distribution and consumption processes" (Kirchherr et al., 2017, p. 224). By redesigning production processes and thereby extending the lifespan of goods and materials, researchers suggest that CE approaches reduce waste and increase employment and resource security while sustaining business competitiveness (Korhonen et al., 2018; Niskanen et al., 2020; Stahel, 2012; Winans et al., 2017). Organizations such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and Circle Economy help steer businesses toward CE strategies. The CE is also a political priority in countries and municipalities globally. For instance, the CE Action Plan, launched by the European Commission in 2015 and reconfirmed in 2020, is a central pillar of the European Green Deal (European Commission, 2015, 2020). Additionally, more governments are implementing national CE strategies in China (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2018), Colombia (Government of the Republic of Colombia, 2019), Finland (Sitra, 2016), Sweden (Government Offices of Sweden, 2020) and the US (Metabolic, 2018, 2019), to name a few. Meanwhile, more cities worldwide are adopting CE models to achieve more resource-efficient urban management systems, thereby advancing their environmental ambitions (Petit-Boix & Leipold, 2018; Turcu & Gillie, 2020; Vanhuyse, Haddaway, et al., 2021). Cities with CE ambitions include, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Paris, Toronto, Peterborough (England) and Umeå (Sweden) (OECD, 2020a). In Europe, over 60 cities signed the European Circular Cities Declaration (2020) to harmonize the transition towards a CE in the region. In this policy brief, we provide insights into common challenges local governments face in implementing their CE plans and suggest recommendations for overcoming these. It aims to answer the question: How can the CE agenda be governed in cities? It is based on the results of the Urban Circularity Assessment Framework (UCAF) project, building on findings from 25 interviews, focus group discussions and workshops held with different stakeholder groups in Umeå, as well as research on Stockholm's urban circularity potential, including findings from 11 expert interviews (Rezaie, 2021). Our findings were complemented by the Circular Economy Lab project (Rezaie et al., 2022) and experiences from working with municipal governments in Sweden, Belgium, France and the UK, on CE and environmental and social sustainability.

Amaya, Ashley. RTI International’s Address-Based Sampling Atlas: Drop points. RTI Press, December 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.3768/rtipress.2017.op.0047.1712.
Abstract:
The Computerized Delivery Sequence (CDS) file contains listings for nearly all addresses in the United States. Survey researchers use the CDS as a sampling frame from which to draw an address-based sample (ABS). More than 700,000 addresses on the CDS are marked as drop points, which are mail receptacles shared by multiple housing units (drop units). Drop points are a challenge to sample and present a potential source of error because of their "one-to-many" relationships. Several techniques have been developed to overcome this challenge, including deleting them from the frame or sampling all units at a given drop point. This paper serves as an introduction to these challenges, discusses the pros and cons to each "solution," and provides a list of best practices.

Abstract:
The article desribes the main features of the publishing activity of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv from the end of the 1990s and in the first two decades of the 21st century. The aim of the author was to show this activity with the help of stages of formation of the Publishing Centre at the University. For this purpose, he used historical method, the methods of analysis, synthesis, content analysis etc. One of the important landmarks of the end of the 20th century in the publishing activity of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv which has its traditions in the past was the foundation of the mentioned Publishing Centre on the basis of Editing and Publishing Department, Machine Offset and Polygraphic Laboratories. This process was favoured by the administration of the University which supported the transfer of printing base to another building of the University. Professionals with respective qualification level and experience in the sphere of publishing and printing were gathered there. Another stage of the development of the Publishing Centre of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv was the creation in 2006 of the Publishing Board within the University which became a generator of ideas on the development of scientific book publishing and actively cooperated with printing enterprises of Ukraine (the author of the article was a member of this board). The administration of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv provided a substantial financial support for publication of educational and scientific literature of different genres and on different topics for educational needs both of the University itself and Ukrainian educational sphere in general. As a result of active publishing activity, the Publishing Centre of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv since 1996 has published more than 4.5 million copies of publications whose authors are members of the academic community of the University. Among the significant publications of the Publication Centre of the last two decades the article notes Ivan Franko (10 volumes, authors – R. Horak and Ya. Hnativ), Encyclopedia. The Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (2 volumes), Social Geography (2 books, author – Prof. O. Shabliy) and others. The results of the activities of the Publication Centre of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv were demonstrated during participation at Book Forums and other events in the publication and printing sphere. This article permits researchers in Humanities to analyze and evaluate the achievements and at the same time problems of the scientific publication activity of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv.

Abstract:
In order to catalyze the research community around OpenSciEd, Digital Promise, with support from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, has developed the OpenSciEd Research Agenda. Early on, we determined that three broad relationships between OpenSciEd and a research community could be fruitful. OpenSciEd enabled research encompasses questions in science education and beyond that can be best answered using OpenSciEd. OpenSciEd inspired research aims to drive innovations based on OpenSciEd’s distinctive features and affordances. OpenSciEd partnership research would address questions of mutual interest to researchers and OpenSciEd developers. This paper details the processes utilized to frame the research agenda, recruit stakeholders and engage them in activities to generate research questions, and identify emergent themes for future OpenSciEd research.
