Full textThis dissertation includes three essays that present a quantitative analysis of the policy implications of gender equality and religious attitudes as predictors of terrorism at the state level using a broad dataset. Essay one focuses on impact of gender equality, especially women's political empowerment on terrorism, both domestic and transnational. The second essay examines both gender equality attitudes and actual outcomes in social, economic and political spheres, to measure their effect on terrorism. The third essay analyzes the relation of religiousness in a society with incidents and lethality of terrorism. The overall findings of this thesis suggest that attitudes and norms of gender equality matter with regard to terrorism, but practices and outcomes matter more. Results also indicate that religious attitudes of a society are associated with lethality of terror attack. These findings have important policy implications for rethinking prevention of terrorism in an effective and innovative manner. The results strongly support investment in women's rights programs, promotion of religious tolerance and provision of social services as indirect policy solutions to curb the conditions that foster terrorism.

Full textOur aim with this research is analyzing the social representation of the relation of faith and politics among the Christian militants, focusing the analysis at Priest Humberto Plummen Faith and Politics school of Regional Northeast 2 (CNBB National Conference of Bishops of Brazil). We identify the fundamental elements, the representation forms, searching realize how these elements interfere in the militancy of the liberation of attendants and congregated. The perspective that shows this work is based on the theory of the Social Representation, which concepts of objectivity and anchorage are highlighted and in other elements of field of the Science of Religion and the Sociology of Religion. We believe that such perspective supports the analysis of the social imaginary about the relation faith and politics present in the referring school, what reveals in the interviews made with students and coordinators. Thus, it is possible to verify if the social representation of faith is a constitutive element of its politic actions, as also check if the social representation of politics is a constitutive element of its expression of faith. And still if this relation supports a trace of identity that composes the ethos presents in the referring institution

Full textLa comptabilité est appréhendée comme un système discursif dans lequel les individus parlent d'eux-mêmes en termes d'actif-passif, débit-crédit, résultat, valeur... La thèse tente de comprendre comment des paroisses ethniquement marquées s'approprient la spiritualité comptable de leur congrégation pour rendre des comptes à Dieu.
Afin de répondre à ce questionnement, une étude ethnométhodologique de l'Armée du Salut est menée en France, en Suisse, au Royaume Uni et en Suède à travers l'observation de communautés composées de Blancs Français, d'Haïtiens, de Congolais (Brazzaville et Kinshasa), de Suisses-Allemands, de WASPS, de Zimbabwéens et de Vikings.
Cette étude révèle trois styles d'accountability révélant des influences différenciées de l'ethnicité : un engagement total, un engagement partiel et un engagement nul. En outre, l'accountability apparaît comme un système d'approximations des attentes d'une Partie Prenante Supérieure et de subrogations de celle-ci par les managers, les différents stakeholders et les individus dans leurs pratiques quotidiennes.

Full textD'un point de vue plus sociologique, cette étude s'intéresse au système sanitaire brésilien, ses évolutions, et pointe les défaillances du système officiel dans la gestion des soins offerte aux patients.
Analysant les parcours (possibles) du malade (brésilien), les techniques qu'il va choisir d'utiliser pour gérer ses problèmes de santé – en faisant appel ou non aux pratiques thérapeutiques du culte afro-brésilien, il apparaît finalement qu'outre le fait de pouvoir se présenter comme un système de soins complémentaire à la médecine officielle, les pratiques thérapeutiques développées par les garants de ce culte et de cette culture s'affichent souvent et de plus en plus comme une alternative, voire un palliatif efficace face à une gestion officielle de la santé souvent défaillante – où les rejetés de la médecine (par manque de moyens financiers permettant d'y accéder) côtoient les rejetants de cette médecine (qui craignent les infections nosocomiales et autres fonctionnements quotidiens mal assurés).
