Costa, Hermes Augusto. « From Europe as a model to Europe as austerity ». Transfer : European Review of Labour and Research 18, no 4 (26 octobre 2012) : 397–410. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/1024258912458866.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Twenty five years after Portuguese EU accession, the labour market in general and the trade unions in particular are faced with severely regressive social measures that undermine past expectations of progress towards the achievement of the Social Europe project in Portugal. Thus, on the one hand, this article identifies some of the ambitions and possibilities earlier opened up for the Portuguese labour market, as well as trade union attitudes to European integration. It is argued, on the other hand, that, in the context of the economic crisis and the austerity measures to which Portugal is subjected, the sense of Portugal’s backwardness in relation to the ‘European project’ has become more acute. The article accordingly focuses on and examines some of the austerity measures and certain controversial issues associated with them. In a final section, the impact of austerity on labour relations and the reactions of social partners, in particular the trade unions, are analysed.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Institutional resources are one of the sources of power available to trade unions, but recent literature has tended to pay less attention to these than to associational and organizational resources. We examine institutional resources in three Southern European countries, Greece, Portugal and Spain, which share many common characteristics. However, the character of institutional resources in Spanish industrial relations is distinctive. We examine the plasticity of industrial relations institutions in Spain in terms of labour market outcomes but argue that institutional security is an essential platform for unions seeking to develop other sources of power.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article explores the role of the European Parliament (EP) in European Community (EC) Southern enlargement policy during the phase of democratic transitions in Greece, Portugal and Spain. It demonstrates how the EP insisted on adherence to core democratic principles as a condition for any accession negotiations, in particular the holding of free and fair parliamentary elections. Furthermore, the article shows how the EP made strategic use of the Southern European democratic transitions to demand the democratisation of the EC and the EP itself, with the holding of direct elections to the EP as its primary demand. Moreover, it discusses the EP’s attempt to make the observance of democratic principles a formal requirement of EC membership, both for applicant countries and for existing member states. Finally, it reconstructs the EP’s relations with counterparts in Greece, Portugal and Spain, which were intended to prepare the baselines of enlargement policy and EC accession.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between clientelist relationships and economics in public relations practice in European Mediterranean countries and Latin America. It considers the cases of Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico. Design/methodology/approach – This paper uses a critical-conceptual method through a re-conceptualization of themes from secondary qualitative analyses of existing qualitative data sets and reviews of published qualitative papers. Findings – The public relations practice in these two regions is similar. The characteristics of the public relations landscape in these countries must be understood in relation to a broader history of clientelism and economics emphasizing government relationships at the expense of other publics, as well as the lack of scale economies. Persuasive models are prevalent, although a number of forces – including integration in supranational organizations, democratization, and globalization – have strengthened the use of symmetrical models. Research limitations/implications – This is not an empirical survey, there is a need of quantitative studies among practitioners and government officials that can measure empirically the nature of their relationships in a number of countries. This essay opens a door for future studies and cross-cultural comparisons about the role that clientelism plays in the PR practice of cultures and countries. Practical implications – The paper offers useful background information, such as the primacy that media relations still have in the public relations practice, for foreign public relations executives, agency heads, and managers of public relations who are directly involved with or managing international public relations campaigns in these countries. Social implications – Clientelism is a cultural concept that translates to the work of organizations and consequently public relations as a form of organizational behavior. Originality/value – This paper brings to the table the importance of the concept of clientelism in the PR practice as well as the existence of a similar PR culture between countries that are on different continents.

Krieger, Hubert, et Kevin P. O'Kelly. « The extent of participation in Europe ». Transfer : European Review of Labour and Research 4, no 2 (mai 1998) : 214–30. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/102425899800400205.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Employee participation is an important element of the European Social Model and this paper focuses on the extent of the different forms of participation - representative participation; direct participation; and financial participation, as measured in the European Foundation's EPOC survey. The paper examines the findings on these different types of participation separately and finally compares the levels of participation by combining all three systems. By taking this approach, important differences were found across the ten countries surveyed, with Sweden showing the strongest implementation of all types of participation, while Portugal is the weakest, in particular in representation participation arrangements. The paper indicates that there is a wide gap between the desired objective of the European Social Model and the practice of participation in Europe.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article focuses on the institution of the general minimum wage in Greece and Southern Europe during the economic recession and up to the present day. The economic crisis and the way it was dealt with by European and international institutions led not only to constraints in social expenditure but also restrictive income policies, among other things. Especially in countries that found themselves involved in ‘fiscal adjustment programmes’, like Greece, Spain, and Portugal, the whole of the labour market and labour relations became the arena for radical reforms. The declared targets were increasing flexibility in the labour market, decreasing labour force costs, gradually decentralizing collective agreements, changing the way wages are determined, and strengthening of flexible forms of work. Our study examines the changes in the established method of determining minimum wage in the countries of Southern Europe that were part of fiscal adjustment programmes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractPost-1945 Spanish and Portuguese emigration and immigration histories encapsulate the Iberian region's long-standing interconnectedness with the wider world (particularly Latin America and Africa) and other parts of Europe alike. Portugal and Spain have both been part of multiple migration systems as important sending countries that ultimately experienced an international migration turnaround owing to their transition to democracy, decolonisation, and accession to a European Union in which internal freedom of movement counted among its core principles. With the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis and Europe's migration crisis of the 2010s serving as its vantage point, this article considers these topics as they intersect with issues that include nationality and citizenship, race and racism, and religion and Islamophobia in multicultural Spain and Portugal.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Our essay will critically survey and attempt to offer an overall interpretation of a growing volume of publications by historians who have attempted to evaluate the costs and benefits for Europe's domestic economies flowing from some five centuries of involvement with empires overseas. That involvement began with the conquest of Ceuta by the Portuguese in 1417 and passed through two epochs: 1417-1825 and 1825-1974. After a first conjuncture marked by the French Revolution, a quarter of a century of global warfare and movements for independence in Southern America, Britain emerged as the hegemonic imperial power in Europe. Its major rivals for commerce and dominion in Africa, Asia and the Americas (Portugal, Spain, France and Holland) ceded control over parts of their possessions overseas to Britain or (in the cases of Spain and Portugal), lost sovereignty over their colonies in Latin America.

Mataix, David. « L' Europe des révolutions nationales : l'impossible Union Latine ». Montpellier 3, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004MON30045.
Texte intégralRésumé :
L'histoire de l'Espagne, l'Italie, la France et le Portugal durant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale a toujours été étudiée dans le cadre d'une histoire nationale plus large –souvent le XXème siècle - ou bien confondue dans celle de la guerre. A l'heure de l'Europe, croiser et comparer ces histoires peut donc permettre de mieux comprendre certains faits. Car comme ne le voyons dans cette étude, beaucoup de divergences apparurent dès la mise en place de ces régimes, entre eux, mais aussi avec l'Allemagne nazie. L'anticommunisme, la place de la religion, les ambitions nationales et celles de leurs chefs sont autant d'éléments qui expliquent en effet nombre de décisions et d'événements nationaux et internationaux pendant et après la guerre. Voilà donc l'histoire de l'Europe latine de 1940 à 1942, des similitudes et des différences entre ces nations mais aussi du rôle qu'elles entendaient jouer et de la place qu'elles pensaient occuper dans l'Europe de l'après-guerreThe history of Spain, Italy, France and Portugal during the Second World War had always been studied in a larger picture – often the XX century - or mixed in the history of the War. Today, comparing and contrasting these histories can help us to understand certain events. As we can see in this thesis there were differencies from the begining of this regimes, but also with nazi - Germany. Anticomunism, the importance of religion, national ambitions and the ambitions of theirs leaders for their countries ans themselves are some elements that explain the decisions and events during and after the war for all these authoritarian regimes. This is the history of the latin Europe from 1940 to 1942, the similitaries and the differencies between these nations as well as the role and they position they wanted to have in post-war Europe

Texte intégralRésumé :
Confronté à la construction européenne, le Portugal s'est vu dans l'obligation d'intégrer l'AELE, au grand regret des plus hautes instances de Lisbonne, convaincues que l'avenir du pays se trouvait dans un rapprochement plus étroit de ses colonies africaines. Par crainte d'un isolement économique désastreux et poussé à cette extrémité par l'attitude plus qu'équivoque de son alliée britannique, le Portugal n'a eu d'autre choix que poursuivre cette implication dans les affaires européennes quand se posa la question de rejoindre ou non la CEE. Après la candidature officielle d'association au Marché Commun de mai 1962, l'administration nationale entama l'élaboration d'un projet européen qui ralliait les sympathies des libéraux. Les circonstances aidant, les conservateurs parvinrent néanmoins à maintenir le pays hors de cette zone économique. Le répit fut cependant éphémère car dès 1968 et la chute de Salazar, le gouvernement réformateur, incité une nouvelle fois par Londres, mit sur pied une stratégie visant à un rapprochement économique entre le Portugal et la Communauté européenne. Contrairement à l'action précédente, cette dernière fut couronnée de succès puisque, malgré les résistances de certains pays du continent, Lisbonne parvint à rejoindre la CEE par un accord d'association commerciale. Cette victoire fut de courte durée car le retour aux affaires des conservateurs, en 1972, sonna le glas de l'espoir européen, jusqu'à ce que la gauche le relance après la Révolution des Oeillets

Texte intégralRésumé :
Television d'etat, television publique, television de service public, trois expressions qui recouvrent trois types de television distincts. L'histoire recente montre d'ailleurs que certains pays europeens sont passes d'un stade a un autre en une poignee d'annees seulement. Telle semble etre la situation de l'espagne, de la grece et du portugal qui, au cours de la decennie 70, sont sortis en meme temps d'un regime dictatorial. L'un des chantiers prioritaires de ces nouvelles democrades a alors consiste a essayer de mettre en place un reel service public audiovisuel pour que la television ne soit plus la << voix du maitre >>, totalement sous le controle des pouvoirs autoritaires, mais qu'elle devienne, au contraire, une television de tous les citoyens en reference aux principes du service public. Impossible a edifier au cur d'une dictature, nous avons emis le postulat que seul un contexte democratique, fut-il tout recent, pouvait etre de nature a favoriser la mise en place d'un tel media, au service de tous. La volonte d'instaurer une nouvelle television a ete reelle dans ces trois pays, a la fin des dictatures. Les statuts de chacune de ces televisions mentionnent d'ailleurs tres clairement les nouveaux objectifs retenus qui s'inspirent alors de la trilogie propre au service public : instruire, informer, divertir. Dans les faits, des evolutions signifivatives ont d'ailleurs vu le jour vers une plus grande independance de ce media par rapport au pouvoir politique notamment. Mais, a cote de cela, le poids des habitudes et la rigidite des comportements ont ete tels que ces nouvelles democraties n'ont pas reussi a mettre sur pied un veritable service public audiovisuel qu'elles appelaient de leurs vux. Elles ont meme fait apparaitre, involontairement et indirectement de nouveaux pieges, tout aussi dangereux que ceux de la dictature mais beaucoup plus subtils, ceux que l'on resume aujourd'hui sous le vocable de mediacratie. Ayant quitte leur fonctionnement de television d'etat, elles sont devenues au fil des ans et des reformes, des televisions publiques mais sans jamais atteindre le statut, pourtant convoite, de televisions de service public. Malgre les bonnes intentions, elles n'ont eu ni le temps, ni les moyens de franchir l'ultime etape. C'est pourquoi, on peut parler a leur egard, de televisions publiques generalistes commerciales.

First made available online : 14 January 2015.
Portugal is a very good illustration of the current identity quests that are pursued by communities of all shapes and sizes – local, national, supranational, international, civilizational – in response to old urges and new threats posed in a globalised, but also “glocalised”, world. Torn between its European body and its atlantic/lusophone “soul”, Portugal tries to strike a balance between the two dimensions of its identity as a polity and, in the process, claims a special role as mediator between north and south, Europe and the African continent. Although fully committed to the European immigration policy, with its restrictive dimensions and its focus on integration, Portugal purports to articulate the European demands with the special solidarity bonds that exist with the Portuguese speaking countries. It has been so for a number of years, but the recent developments in both the Portuguese nationality and immigration laws show that the fears expressed by many that Schengen would surpass the lusophone ties were well founded and that, no matter how well intended the Portuguese policies are in these matters, the result will be detrimental to the so-called lusophone citizens. They do enjoy a special status – encompassing voting rights and access to public office that is generally forbidden to all foreigners (a status unparalleled in the two other European countries under scrutiny, France and the United Kingdom) – but their access to the Portuguese territory has been curtailed. Even more than Portugal, which until recently was the last of the European “nation states” and only now faces visible cultural diversity in its society, the European Union and the Community of the Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP) struggle with the definition of their respective identities and sense of purpose, seeking to win the hearts and minds of their peoples. Commonly considered a natural spontaneous community, due to the existence of a common language, the CPLP faces the difficulties posed by mutual distrust and old grudges and the fear, by many, that it is only an expression of imperial nostalgia on the part of Portugal. Its member states show only a mild commitment, engaged as they all are in other regional communities of their own, as can be seen in the discussions on citizenship and free movement within the lusophone area. There are many similarities between the legal systems of the CPLP member states, which can be explained by the cooperation between lawyers and academics specially in Africa and East Timor, but some of those similarities are merely formal, with little correspondence in the law in action, and coexist with relevant differences due mostly to different levels of socio-economic development and political will. For the European Union the purpose of fostering a feeling of belonging and solidarity between the peoples of Europe is an ongoing struggle for legitimacy which has suffered major setbacks in recent years. After the constitutional momentum, the Union has adopted a more modest stance, but has by no means given up winning the support of the European citizens. One of the fields in which its intervention is demanded is directly linked with the identity quest in progress – border definition and control, policies towards illegal and legal aliens. Stressing the need to integrate the third country nationals who are legal residents and adopting the mantra of intercultural dialogue, the EU presents itself as a guardian for human rights and a fighter against racism, at the same time as it tries to keep Europe for the Europeans as much as possible. Its member states are willing, for European or domestic reasons, to go along and easily drop old preferences for extra-community bonds of solidarity. Portugal may again be the last of the empires, keeping a special status for the foreigners of lusophone origin, but it nevertheless keeps with the times when it comes to admission to its territory.

Dissertation presented as the partial requirement for obtaining a Master's degree in Information Management, specialization in Knowledge Management and Business IntelligenceIn an increasingly global world and interconnected economies, understanding the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) is of utmost importance. The existence of many data sources, with different data details, pose a challenge to the analysis of FDI in its various dimensions. The main contribution of this study is to apply the network analysis methodology, to construct a presentation of the European Network FDI, identifying patterns, establishing trends and describing the relations between different countries over time. The position of Portugal in this EU network is also assessed. The results are presented by using specific visualisation tools that graphically illustrate the interlinkages between the economies.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Orientação: José Filipe PintoCabo Verde e Portugal possuem relações históricas e culturais que vêm desde a época dos descobrimentos portugueses e que perduram até hoje, adquirindo, após a independência do arquipélago, uma dimensão também política. Cabo Verde é um país pequeno, com poucos recursos e muito dependente do exterior, por isso, o país procura estabelecer e estreitar relações diplomáticas e económicas, com Estados e Organizações Internacionais para sobreviver num mundo globalizado e complexo. A desburocratização do aparelho estatal e a credibilidade externa criam, obviamente, um ambiente favorável ao investimento estrangeiro no arquipélago. A estratégia diplomática, como componente da sua política externa, constitui pedra basilar para a viabilidade, presente e futura, do arquipélago. As relações político-diplomática entre Cabo Verde e Portugal são uma questão de grande relevância para a compreensão da evolução da vida política do arquipélago. Com esse trabalho procura-se analisar de que forma o processo de colonização não impediu, posteriormente, que os dois países se relacionassem política e diplomaticamente, ultrapassando com celeridade a relação colonial. Para tal, procede-se ao estudo dos objetivos de Cabo Verde e de Portugal nas suas relações diplomáticas e da forma como os governos têm vindo a trabalhar para promover e estreitar essas relações. Será, ainda, lançado um olhar sobre essas relações político-diplomáticas na atualidade como forma de traçar um cenário prospetivo das mesmas.
Cape Verde and Portugal have historical and cultural links that come from the time of the Portuguese discoveries and remain untiltoday, acquiring, after the independence of the archipelago, also a political dimension. Cape Verde is a small country with few resources and too dependent on the outside, and therefore, the country seeks to establish and strengthen diplomatic and economic relations with States and International Organizations to survive in a globalized and complex world. The bureaucracy of the State apparatus and the external credibility create, obviously, a favorable environment for foreign investment in the archipelago. The diplomatic strategy, as a component of its foreign policy, is the cornerstone for the viability, present and future, of the archipelago. The political and diplomatic relations between Cape Verde and Portugal are a matter of great importance for understanding the evolution of the archipelago's political life. This study aims to examine how the process of colonization did not prevent that, in asubsequent phase,the two countries become politically and diplomatically engaged, quickly surpassing the colonial relationship. In order to do this, the these proceeds to the study of Cape Verde and Portugal goals in their diplomatic relations, and how governments have been working to promote and strengthen these relationships. It will also cast a glance over these political and diplomatic relations nowadays as a way to draw a prospective view of them.

Texte intégralRésumé :
A revolução de 25 de abril de 1974 marca a queda de um período ditatorial de quarenta e oito anos em
Portugal e o início de um processo de democratização social e política.
A consolidação da democracia portuguesa acontece, em 1976, no I Governo Constitucional com o
pedido de adesão ao Conselho da Europa e consequentemente com o pedido de adesão à Comunidade
Económica Europeia (CEE), em 1977.
Mário Soares, Secretário-geral do PS e Primeiro-ministro do I Governo Constitucional é a figura de
primeiro plano em todo o processo negocial, desde o pedido de adesão em 28 de março de 1977 até à
assinatura do Tratado de Adesão em 12 de junho de 1985, contando com o apoio do PS, PSD e CDS e
a oposição do PCP.
Para Portugal poder integrar a CEE, houve a necessidade de preparar o País, social, económica e
politicamente para um novo paradigma, direcionado para uma Europa democrática, desenvolvida nos
princípios da liberdade, da solidariedade.
Apesar das dificuldades políticas e económicas da conjuntura internacional, Portugal assina o tratado
de adesão em 12 junho de 1985, no pressuposto que o desafio, em termos de política externa, iria ser
complexo.
Com este estudo, foi possível compreender a dificuldade de adaptação e integração numa nova
dinâmica da política externa, dadas as diferenças entre a realidade europeia e o contexto português.The Portuguese political system has changed with the revolution of April, 25th, 2014. After forty eight year’s dictatorship Portugal starts a path towards a democratic system. The consolidation of democracy starts with the Portuguese demand to become member of European Counseil (EC), in 1976 and European Economic Community (EEC) afterwards, in March, 1977. Mário Soares, general secretary of PS, prime-minister of the I Constitutional Government, assisted by the PS, PSD and CDS parties, was the most important person who was uncharged to deal all the procedures regarding integration of Portugal in the EEC. Due the several years of adjustment policies and Portuguese parliament discussions, the different governments have never had the agreement of PCP who was against to the Portuguese integration in EEC. In order to start de integration policies Portugal were needed to prepare social and politically the Portuguese environment towards a Standardized European System built in a democracy values, such as solidarity and freedom. Besides the political, economic and social international situation Portugal made a great strength to get the conditions to become a member of EEC and on June, 12th, 1985 the Treaty of Accession of Portugal to European Economic Community, was signed with the conviction that the near future would be very hard because the needed standard levels of foreign policy. With this work it was possible for me to understand how difficult it has been to adjust and to take part of a dynamic foreign policy, taking on consideration the differences between the European reality and the Portuguese context.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractTransitions into precariousness and labour market exclusion in late professional career need to be understood from the perspective of individual biographies unfolding in relation to historical developments, social structures and social changes.The generation born in the 1950’s in Europe, now nearing retirement, has lived through periods of economic affluence and welfare state expansion, but also of macro-economic shocks, deindustrialization, and neo-liberal slimming of public social structures. These changes were concurrent with accelerated digitalization and restructuring of work organizations.This chapter illustrates transitions into unemployment and precariousness among older men in the context of economic downturn and organizational restructuring in a sector particularly exposed to the effects of neo-liberal globalization- the metal industry. We go on to show how in two different organizational-institutional realities countries, such as Portugal and Sweden these workers are exposed to different mechanisms that paved the way out of secure employment into insecure employment and precarious positions in the labour market.

AbstractThis chapter shows how the teaching of multiplication is structured in national curriculum standards (programs) around the world. (The documents are distributed by national governments via the web. Those documents are written in different formats and depths. For understanding the descriptions of the standards, we also refer to national authorized textbooks for confirmation of meanings.) The countries chosen for comparison in this case are two countries in Asia, one in Europe, two in North America, and two in South America: Singapore, Japan, Portugal, the USA (where the Common Core State Standards (2010) are not national but are agreed on by most of the states), Mexico, Brazil, and Chile, from the viewpoint of their influences on Ibero-American countries. (The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards (published in 2000) and the Japanese and Singapore textbooks have been influential in Latin America. Additionally, Portugal was selected to be compared with Brazil). To distinguish between each country’s standard and the general standards described here, the national curriculum standards are just called the “program.” The comparison shows the differences in the programs for multiplication in these countries in relation to the sequence of the description and the way of explanation. The role of this chapter in Part I of this book is to provide the introductory questions that will be discussed in Chaps. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 to explain the features of the Japanese approach. (As is discussed in Chap. 1, the Japanese approach includes the Japanese curriculum, textbooks, and methods of teaching which can be used for designing classes, as has been explored in Chile (see (Estrella, Mena, Olfos, Lesson Study in Chile: a very promising but still uncertain path. In Quaresma, Winsløw, Clivaz, da Ponte, Ní Shúilleabháin, Takahashi (eds), Mathematics lesson study around the world: Theoretical and methodological issues. Cham: Springer, pp. 105–122, 2018). The comparison focuses on multiplication of whole numbers. In multiplication, all of these countries seem to have similar goals—namely, for their students to grasp the meaning of multiplication and develop fluency in calculation. However, are they the same? By using the newest editions of each country’s curriculum standards, comparisons are done on the basis of the manner of writing, with assigned grades for the range of numbers, meanings, expression, tables, and multidigit multiplication. The relationship with other specific content such as division, the use of calculators, the treatment of multiples, and mixed arithmetic operations are beyond the scope of this comparison. Those are mentioned only if there is a need to show diversity.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This chapter focuses on the cases of Spain and Portugal. After decades of authoritarianism, placing the Spanish military under civilian control proved to be a relatively straightforward and brief process. The transformation of Portuguese civil–military relations, on the other hand, was more contentious, took far longer, and did not succeed as completely as Spain's. Greece, the secondary case in this chapter, had a much shorter but more intense experience with praetorianism; its return to democracy and democratic civil–military relations was quick albeit not without some shortcomings. The chapter then assesses the influence of international organizations, particularly NATO, on the democratization of the three states and their defense establishments.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This chapter examines the accounts of several Central European travelers who visited the Iberian Peninsula in the second half of the fifteenth century and pays particular attention to their comments on slaves and slavery. First was the Swabian Georg von Ehingen who sought adventure in latter-day crusades and fought with the Portuguese in Morocco. The Bohemian Leon von Rozmital visited Iberia in 1465–1467. Two of his companions left accounts, his secretary Shashek and the patrician Tetzel wrote accounts of the tour. Nicholas von Popplau made a short visit to Santiago de Compostela in 1484. The German Hieronymus Münzer (or Monetarius) made an extensive tour of Portugal and Spain in 1494–1495. The German knight Arnold Von Harff visited Iberia at the very end of the fifteenth century. Each account provides significant observations and detailed descriptions of the traffic and sale of slaves. Taken as a whole, they provide a window on the relations between Central Europe and the western Mediterranean at the end of the Middle Ages.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Across European and Western liberal market democracies, China’s rise exposes friction between economic interests and political values and challenge common foreign and security policy in the European Union. From positions of economic weakness, Greece, Hungary, and Portugal have blocked or watered down common security, human rights, and economic positions in the regional body. Beijing’s formation of a formal group with Central and Eastern European countries, the so-called 17+1, is similarly seen in Brussels as a “divide and rule” tactic. Yet while European governments receive ample criticism for neglecting their political values in order to advance economic relations with China, the economic importance of China to the EU is rarely scrutinized. For large member states like Germany and France, and smaller ones such as Denmark and Norway, trade and investment with China does not produce a relationship of economic dependency for the EU as commonly perceived, particularly as China’s state capitalist system produces new competition for European companies. Beijing’s infringements on European democratic values and competitive economic pressures are changing the public discourse on China, but without a collective response, economic relations with China will only become more asymmetric than they are today.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The crisis that arose in Greece at the last quarter of 2009 affected the countries that have heavily government debt like Spain, Portugal, Italy and Ireland as soon as 2008 Global Financial Crisis originating from USA Mortgage Markets affect European Union (EU) countries under heavily debt burden. The effects of that crisis in the short run are demand shrinking and decrease in export. Turkey, which has important economic relations with EU countries in the last fifty years, is the primary country that can be negatively affected from demand shrinking in Europe. Turkey that indirectly experience 2008 global financial crisis because of the decrease in export volume in Europe also seem fatefully affected in this crisis. This article aims to determine the effects of the crisis to Turkey’s export ampirically in the EU countries that have the lion’s share in the Turkey’s export markets. As well, it is trying to explain whether this crisis affects over-all Europe or not.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Service innovation represents a challenge that has to be supported by specific actions of the higher education professionals. At European level, it was promoted by platforms developed under the Europe INNOVA and other initiatives, and it is now an important priority of the Europe 2020 strategy. Therefore, the academic environment should get aligned to this trend and prepare students for the complex character of the future service systems. This paper presents best practices and platforms to support an action program for getting aligned to the European trends in service innovation, undertaken within the ESF / POSDRU project INSEED (Strategic Program for promoting Innovation in Services by Open and Continuous Education). The program has five main objectives: A. Aligning university actions to the European strategy; B. Contributing to the activity of professional organizations and scientific communities at international level; C. Collaboration with European researchers on the topic of innovative services; D. Sustaining joint educational programs and curriculum in the domain of services, in correlation with European partners; E. Using the INSER@SPACE collaborative platform for promoting virtual educational resources and knowledge regarding the service science. Each objective is described by its specific actions and by a presentation of the applied practices, like: comprehending the strategies, programs and organisms related to the European Commission; analyzing the knowledge gaps; co-authoring articles with experts from European universities with common research interests; organizing scientific events in the domain of services; certifying undergraduate and postgraduate educational programs dedicated to sector services. An important example is the Service Engineering Master (SEM) from the Automation and Computer Science Faculty, University Politehnica of Bucharest, and its relation to other programs on service science, from Austria, Belgium, Portugal, Ireland, Germany and Czech Republic. The master is linked through a double degree agreement, with the Master in Service Engineering and Management (MESG) from the Faculty of Engineering -FEUP, University of Porto. The two programs complement each other, as SEM is IT-oriented and MESG is business-oriented. The paper compares them, based on their common elements and their particular contributions. As support for creating a global educational environment, we also present the INSER@SPACE collaborative platform developed by INSEED, with its three components: (i) a learning management system dedicated to educational courses concerning services; (ii) a semantic wiki on service science for creating an international community based on a clearly defined knowledge environment; (iii) educational resources provided as a service, with configurations dedicated to learning new technologies for service innovation.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Nel 2010, la base sottomarina di Saint-Nazaire è stata dichiarata «Patrimonio del XX secolo»
dal Ministère de la Culture et de la Communnication francese ed è divenuta il simbolo di un
nuovo approccio patrimoniale che riconosce il patrimonio materiale e immateriale in tutte le sue
forme, non limitandosi soltando al manufatto certificato come monumento. La memoria, i beni
materiali o i luoghi poco conosciuti hanno così contribuito a definire una nuova dimensione
urbana proiettata verso il futuro. Riferirsi esplicitamente al tema del rapporto tra waterfront e
patrimonio militare, attraverso l’esempio di Saint-Nazaire, ci porta a riflettere sul ruolo del
progetto urbano nella trasformazione della città contemporanea.
Gli stessi principi collegano tale caso di studio a molte altre operazioni di rigenerazione della
città europea e, in particolare, delle città portuali francesi. A partire dagli anni ‘80, per far fronte
alla crisi del settore industriale, alcune città portuali, tra cui Marsiglia, Le Havre, Saint-Nazaire e
Dunkerque, hanno elaborato numerosi studi e progetti sulle loro aree industriali obsolete o
abbandonate, al fine di potenziare le attività portuali e di destinare gli spazi resi liberi a nuove
attività. Il riconoscimento del valore di risorsa urbana e patrimoniale a tali aree portuali ha
consentito di riattivare dinamiche economiche, sociali e spaziali spesso interrotte o in disuso. In 2010 the submarine base in Saint-Nazaire was declared ‘Heritage of the XX century’ by the
French Ministère de la Culture et de la Communnication. Thereafter it became the symbol of a
new approach related to heritage that recognises the tangible and intangible heritage in all its
forms, not only restricted to the artifact acknowledged as a ‘monument’. Remembrance, the
material assets or the little known places have thus contributed to defining a new urban
dimension projected toward the future. The case of Saint-Nazare, relating clearly to the
relationship between waterfront and military heritage, encourages us to meditate on the role of
urban design in the transformation of the contemporary city. The same principles connect this case study to several other redevelopment operations in the
European city and, in particular, the French port cities. Starting from the '80s, in order to face
the crisis in the industrial sector, several port cities, including Marseille, Le Havre, Dunkirk and
Saint-Nazaire, produced diverse studies and projects regarding their obsolete or abandoned
industrial areas, in order to boost port activities and to allocate the vacant places to new
activities. Acknowledgment of the value of these port areas as urban resources (as well as
cultural heritage) has consented the regeneration of (often previously interrupted or abandoned)
economic, social and spatial activity.

The international wave energy community is in the process of setting up commercial scale wave energy conversion deployment sites of various sizes. At present there are at least five large scale wave energy test sites being planned, or under development in Europe, from Portugal in the South to Scotland in the North with further facilities internationally, for example, those proposed for Oregon and Hawaii. There are also a growing number of developers now reviewing their options for prototype and commercial development of their technologies around the world. The Wave Hub Project will develop a 20 MW, grid connected, infrastructure off the northern coast of Cornwall, UK for installation of pre-commercial devices in summer 2010. This paper briefly describes various aspects of the development of the Wave Hub infra-structure, but focuses on a unique aspect of this development — the establishment of an associated research institute, PRIMaRE (The Peninsula Research Institute for Marine Renewable Energy), to work in parallel with Wave Hub. The aims of the Institute are to (i) undertake relevant research in marine renewable systems; (ii) provide support to the Wave Hub project and the associated developers; (iii) support businesses in the region, to help develop their activity relating to the marine energy supply chain. The progress of the Wave Hub project is described and the research areas within PRIMaRE are also discussed with an emphasis on resource assessment and physical and environmental modeling and the development of major facilities. Finally, the integrated nature of the project and how it will act as a catalyst for local economic development is described — illustrating how infrastructure development, research collaboration and knowledge transfer may work together to create better opportunities for the development of new and existing businesses.

This paper approaches the main aspects of blended learning applied through the piloting sessions of INGA 3D project, Creative Transfer of Competence in 3D Footwear CAD to VET Professionals. The INGA 3D project is running within the framework of the Lifelong Learning Program - Transfer of Innovation. The aim of the project is to transfer innovative software solutions and 3D footwear CAD technologies, respectively Icad3d+ software, produced by Spain. The project is addressed to VET teachers, trainers, tutors who work with highly specialized footwear CAD technologies. The project partners are universities, research & training centres, and IT companies: 'Gheorghe Asachi' Technical University of Iasi (Romania), INESCOP (Spain), IED-European Institute of Design (Spain), University of Salford (United Kingdom), Virtual Campus (Portugal), RED 21(Spain). The e-learning tools developed include web-based and educational media like videos, assessment tasks and demonstrative resources with learning purposes that emphasize and enrich the lessons' content. The lessons are designed as tutorials which cover the 3D modelling steps and the necessary Icad3d+ tools for completing basic footwear models by: processing the lasts, designing the 3D model lines, transferring and controlling 3D lines with 2D drawings, creating pieces, adding texture, stitches and accessories, modelling the 3D shape of sole and heel, rendering. The piloting of two modules of INGA 3D program has been helpful in relation to further development of the e-learning resources. Overall, the participants achieved a lot in a little time. The evaluation was based on the answers and feedback of a questionnaire applied to 35 Romanian participants to the course. Apart from the necessary information for improvements of the training contents and e-learning tools, all piloting sessions bring positive comments.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Out of ~11.000.000 enslaved Africans disembarked in the Americas, ~ 46% were taken to Brazil, where transatlantic slave trade only ended in 1850 (official abolition of slavery in 1888). In the Brazilian inland «capitania» Minas Gerais, slave numbers exploded due to gold mining in the first half of 18th century from 30.000 to nearly 300.000 black inhabitants out of a total ~350.000 in 1786. Due to gender demographics, intimate relations between African women and European men were frequent during Antonio da Costa Peixoto’s lifetime. In 1731/1741, this country clerk in Minas Gerais’ colonial administration, originally from Northern Portugal, completed his 42-page manuscript «Obra Nova de Língua Geral de Mina» («New work on the general language of Mina») documenting a variety of Gbe (sub-group of Kwa), one of the many African languages thought to have quickly disappeared in oversea slaveholder colonies. Some of Peixoto’s dialogues show African women who – despite being black and female and therefore usually associated with double subaltern status (see Spivak 1994 «The subaltern cannot speak») – successfully renegotiate their power position in trade. Although Peixoto’s efforts to acquire, describe and promote the «Língua Geral de Mina» can be interpreted as a «white» colonist’s strategy to secure his position through successful control, his dialogues also stress the importance of winning trust and cultivating good relations with members of the local black community. Several dialogues testify a degree of agency by Africans that undermines conventional representations of colonial relations, including a woman who enforces her «no credit» policy for her services, as shown above. Historical research on African and Afro-descendant women in Minas Gerais documents that some did not only manage to free themselves from slavery but even acquired considerable wealth.
