Communication sur la sécurité des vaccins: Lignes directrices pour aider le personnel de santé à communiquer avec les parents, les soignants et les patients. Pan American Health Organization, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.37774/9789275222829.

Abstract (sommario):
Les vaccins sauvent entre 2 et 3 millions de vies chaque année et protègent l’ensemble de la population contre plus d’une douzaine de maladies potentiellement mortelles. Grâce à la vaccination, la variole a été éradiquée en 1980 et nous sommes sur la bonne voie pour éradiquer la polio. Cependant, malgré de grands progrès dans la lutte contre la rougeole, l’une des maladies les plus contagieuses connues, une augmentation des cas a été malheureusement observée ces dernières années. Raison pour laquelle une couverture vaccinale élevée (95 % ou plus) est nécessaire en dépit du défi technique et de communication majeur que cette couverture pose au personnel de santé. Des études montrent que le fait d’informer les personnes sur la qualité, la sécurité, l’efficacité et la disponibilité des vaccins ne suffit pas à modifier les comportements en matière de vaccination et, en général, n’augmente pas la couverture vaccinale. Pour cette raison, nous devons comprendre les raisons pour lesquelles les personnes choisissent de ne pas se faire vacciner ou de ne pas faire vacciner leurs enfants, afin d’entamer un dialogue respectueux à l’aide de messages le mieux adaptés et les plus efficaces. Dans ce contexte, le principal objectif de ces lignes directrices est de fournir des outils au personnel qui travaille dans le domaine de la vaccination afin de favoriser une communication efficace entre le personnel de santé et la population, de manière à renforcer, maintenir ou rétablir la confiance dans les vaccins et les programmes de vaccination dans la Région des Amériques.

Abstract (sommario):
What befalls economies that descend into violence? This chapter suggests that the splintered trade networks described in Chapter 2 effectively forced firms in Liberia to localize many of their inputs and to internalize many of the functions that would otherwise be external—imitating the effects of import-substitution and state-led industrialization policies. Specifically, the war economy in Liberia mimicked import tariffs, localized the staffs of many companies, raised local content in products, and even spurred technical learning and knowledge accumulation. In calling attention to ways in which violence localized supply chains, this chapter suggests that the interplay between violent predation is itself a reaction to the structure of global value chains.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Ce livre s’inscrit dans le débat contemporain sur l’actualité de la philosophie des Lumières discutant en particulier, par le biais des images de Spinoza au XVIIIe siècle, des grands thèmes de l’athéisme vertueux, de la liberté de conscience, du conflit entre esprit de système et esprit systématique. En contre-tendance, mais aussi en dialogue avec l’interprétation des « Lumières radicales » par Jonathan Israel, Diego Donna expose les résistances, les métamorphoses théoriques et les ambiguïtés de compréhension que les Lumières réservent à la pensée de Spinoza. Autant de marques de la liberté de la philosophie du « siècle de la philosophie », qui refuse tout système et toute autorité au nom d’une nouvelle « raison éclairée ».

Abstract (sommario):
The US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq led to more than a million people being killed, displaced five million from their homes and shattered countless more lives. It was a colossal, premeditated war crime. Leaders of governments in the countries responsible for this enormity seek to minimise and forget about it: to ‘move on’. We must not let them, because they want to retain the option of making the same political decisions, condemning more innocent people to death, somewhere else in the future. Contributors to this book are united in saying: never again. They examine how and why this unmitigated disaster for humanity was allowed to happen, and how we can prevent it being repeated. And they imagine more peaceful ways to engage with conflicts and crises in times to come. It raises a question: what will you do to help end war and build peace?

Meijers, Tim. Justice Between Generations. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acrefore/9780190228637.013.233.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
A wide range of issues in moral, political, and legal philosophy fall under the heading of “intergenerational justice,” such as questions of justice between the young and the old, obligations to more-or-less distant past and future generations, generational sovereignty, and the boundaries of democratic decision-making.These issues deserve our attention first because they are of great social importance. Solving the challenges raised by aging, stable pension funding, and increasing healthcare costs, for example, requires a view on what justice between age groups demands. Climate change, resource depletion, environmental degradation, population growth, and the like, raise serious concerns about the conditions under which future people will have to live. What kind of world should we bequest to future generations?Second, this debate has theoretical significance. Questions of intergenerational justice force reconsideration of the fundamental commitments (on scope, pattern, site, and currency) of existing moral and political theories. The age-group debate has led to fundamental questions about the pattern of distributive justice: Should we care about people’s lives considered as whole being equally good? This has implausible implications. Can existing accounts be modified to avoid such problematic consequences?Justice between nonoverlapping generations raises a different set of questions. One important worry is about the pattern of intergenerational justice—are future generations owed equality, or should intergenerational justice be cast in terms of sufficiency? Another issue is the currency of intergenerational justice: what kind of goods should be transferred? Perhaps the most puzzling worry resulting from this debate translates into a worry about scope: do obligations of justice extend to future people? Most conventional views on the scope of justice—those that focus on shared coercive institutions, a common culture, a cooperative scheme for mutual advantage—cannot easily be extended to include future generations. Even humanity-based views, which seem most hospitable to the inclusion of future generations, are confronted with what Parfit called the nonidentity problem, which results from the fact that future people are mostly possible people: because of the lack of a fixed identity of future people, it is often impossible to harm them in the comparative sense.

Abstract (sommario):
This book aims to analyze four crossdressers narratives who have been imprisoned for different periods of time in order to raise debates on resistance ways carried out by each one of them. The crossdressers interviewed here were reached by different connections such as friends in common, social media or phone calls, which did not represent a closed and narrowed field but one that it is open and flexible. The issues raised here tried to sketch the crossdresser category through the words by crossdressers writers along with the concepts about themselves and self- determinations, therefore shaping a kind of autobiography even if it is led by a semi- structured script. The existing connections among them, beyond the crossdresser category, lie at first in their access to the prison system and later in finding ways to make it possible to go through life imprisonment. These articulated methods are tactics thought in the space and time web, that is, on a daily basis. This is also one of the book investigation focuses, once it matters to understand not the crossdressers heroic actions, but the ordinary ones, the usual ones, articulated according to educational backgrounds thought as being a less important education.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Les épidémies liées aux maladies contagieuses et infectieuses accompagnent le développement humain depuis la nuit des temps, sans oublier les épidémies de maladies nouvelles comme le VIH ou la Covid-19. La croissance démographique, l’augmentation de la densification des espaces, l’essor des mobilités tous azimuts dans le cadre de la mondialisation des échanges en ont encore accéléré la diffusion planétaire comme l’illustre de manière spectaculaire l’épidémie liée au virus SARS-CoV-2, à l’origine de la maladie nouvelle de la Covid-19. Malgré son impact considérable, la mortalité engendrée par cette dernière (au moins 6,4 millions de morts mi-2022) reste cependant bien en deçà des hécatombes de la grippe espagnole (environ 50 millions de morts entre 1918 et 1919) ou encore de la peste noire qui a décimé entre 30 et 50 % des Européens en cinq années seulement au Moyen Âge (1347-1352). Au-delà des inquiétudes purement sanitaires, les épidémies constituent un objet de recherche, qui peut être interrogé par toutes les disciplines des sciences humaines et sociales, en articulation plus ou moins étroite avec les approches épidémiologiques, sanitaires et écologiques. Inscrit au croisement fructueux de l’interdisciplinarité portée par la Maison des Sciences Humaines et Sociales (SHS) de l’Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne (URCA), ce colloque a eu pour ambition d’appréhender la diversité des dimensions des crises épidémiques contemporaines et passées, en partageant les interrogations, les analyses, les savoirs et les outils des différentes disciplines : histoire, géographie, géopolitique, sociologie, sciences politiques, droit, lettres, économie-gestion, psychologie, sciences de l’éducation et de la formation, etc. Réapparu en raison de l’épidémie de la Covid-19, l’intérêt pour l’étude de la complexité des phénomènes épidémiologiques a pris un tour résolument nouveau, surtout face aux défis multiples et énormes qu’ils soulèvent dans un monde déjà largement gagné par les incertitudes vis-à-vis du futur. Ces actes s’appuient sur le passé et la malheureuse expérience récente pour envisager l’avenir avec une diversité d’approches complémentaires.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Lorsque l’on évoque le « théâtre mythologique », on pense d’emblée au théâtre de l’Antiquité (Eschyle, Sophocle et Euripide...). Parler de théâtre mythologique, c’est aussi l’époque classique (Jean Racine, Pierre Corneille...) ou des pièces de théâtre plus récentes comme La Guerre de Troie n’aura pas lieu de Jean Giraudoux. Cependant, ce panorama centré sur le théâtre antique, ou à l’antique, exclut inéluctablement un certain nombre de pièces de théâtre qui se réfèrent par exemple à la mythologie chrétienne ou dont l’action a pour cadre la mythologie d’autres aires culturelles telles que celles des mondes germanique, asiatique ou encore amérindien. De même où devrait-on classer des œuvres qui mettent en scène le destin de certains individus historiques ou personnages devenus emblématiques, voire mythiques, pour certaines sociétés, comme Don Juan, Faust ou encore La Malinche ? Quelles en seraient les caractéristiques et pour quelles raisons continue-t-il à susciter autant d’intérêt et tellement d’engouement auprès des auteurs, des artistes et du public ? C’est à ces interrogations que prétend répondre l’ouvrage collectif intitulé Théâtre mythologique : origines, manifestations et résurgences réunissant les contributions de dix-huit spécialistes de la question, pour la plupart chercheurs en Arts de la scène de tous les continents et praticiens de théâtre.

Abstract (sommario):
Pietro d’Abano (c. 1257-1315) est l’un des principaux commentateurs des Problemata aristotéliciens (c. 250 avant J.-Chr.) dont la section XIX traite de divers aspects du son et de la musique vocale et instrumentale. Rédigé autour de 1300 et largement diffusé aux XIVe et XVe siècles, le commentaire des 50 problèmes de cette section développe un discours novateur sur la perception du chant et de la musique instrumentale et leurs effets. Partagé entre raison et sensibilité, il est dominé par une approche physique et psycho-physiologique du phénomène sonore et de sa perception qui rompt avec le discours philosophico-mathématique hérité de Boèce. Le texte de base de la présente édition est celui de l’édition de Venise (1519). Il a été révisé à la lumière d’un ensemble de sources manuscrites, dont les plus anciennes.

Abstract (sommario):
En juin 2020 cela faisait déjà presque 6 mois que nos vies se voyaient bouleversées par l’apparition du coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. En raison de la pandémie de Covid-19, la totalité des enseignements universitaires en France se faisait à distance depuis trois mois, y compris l’ensemble de nos cours de langues étrangères à l’Inalco. Dans cette situation de confinement et de (dis)continuité pédagogique, la mise en place de classes virtuelles et l’appropriation de nouveaux outils ont constitué un défi particulièrement délicat tant pour les professeurs que pour les étudiants et les établissements d’enseignement. Le présent volume réunit une trentaine des textes de ces journées. Il s’agit des témoignages d’enseignants-chercheurs français et étrangers, spécialistes de langues diverses et exerçant leur métier dans des contextes variés. Face au choc de la mise en quarantaine et soucieux de maintenir leurs enseignements, ils sont tous passés d’un «tout présentiel (ou d’un ‘présentiel dominant’)» à un «tout distanciel» en un laps de temps très court.

Abstract (sommario):
Bonobos and chimpanzees are two closely relates species of the genus Pan, yet they exhibit marked differences in anatomy, behaviour and cognition. For this reason, comparative studies on social behaviour, cognition and brain organization between these two species provide important insights into evolutionary models of human origins. This chapter summarizes studies on socio-communicative competencies and social cognition in chimpanzees and bonobos from the authors’ laboratory in comparison to previous reports. Additionally, recent data on species differences and similarities in brain organization in grey matter volume and distribution is presented. Some preliminary findings on microstructural brain organization such as neuropil space and cellular distribution in key neurotransmitters and neuropeptides involved in social behaviour and cognition is presented. Though these studies are in their infancy, the findings point to potentially important differences in brain organization that may underlie bonobo and chimpanzees’ differences in social behaviour, communication and cognition. Les bonobos et les chimpanzés sont deux espèces du genus Pan prochement liées, néanmoins ils montrent des différences anatomiques, comportementales et cognitives marquées. Pour cette raison, les études comparatives sur le comportement social, la cognition et l’organisation corticale entre ces deux espèces fournissent des idées sur les modèles évolutionnaires des origines humaines. Dans ce chapitre, nous résumons des études sur les compétences socio-communicatives et la cognition sociale chez les chimpanzés et les bonobos de notre laboratoire en comparaison avec des rapports précédents. En plus, nous présentons des données récentes sur les différences et similarités d’organisation corticale du volume et distribution de la matière grise entre espèces. Nous présentons plus de résultats préliminaires sur l’organisation corticale microstructurale comme l’espace neuropile et la division cellulaire dans des neurotransmetteurs clés et les neuropeptides impliqués dans le comportement social et la cognition. Bien que ces études sont dans leur enfance, les résultats montrent des différences d’organisation corticale importantes qui sont à la base des différences de comportement social, la communication et la cognition entre les bonobos et les chimpanzés.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
They were the deadliest ships of World War II--nine German commerce raiders disguised as peaceful cargo ships, flying the flags of neutral and allied nations. In reality, these heavily armed warships roamed the world's oceans at will, like 20th-century pirates. They struck unsuspecting freighters and tankers out of the darkness of night or from behind a curtain of fog and mist. For almost three years they led the Royal Navy on a deadly chase from sea to sea, seeding Allied ports with hundreds of mines and, on one occasion, even bombarding a shore installation. Masquerading as unarmed merchantmen, the raiders carried an awesome array of weapons cleverly hidden behind false structures and concealed inside empty packing crates on their decks. Seaplanes and motorboats helped them seek out their victims on the vast seas. They then fed off of these unsuspecting targets, pumping fuel from their prey into their own tanks and taking food from captured pantries to feed their own crews and the thousands of prisoners that they picked up along the way. These secret ships also acted as supply ships for U-boats, helping their fellow hunters remain at large for longer periods. At sea for months--or even years--those raider sailors lucky enough to survive were hailed as heroes when they returned home.

Abstract (sommario):
This chapter examines the role of the transnational in the Cold War. It suggests that Cold War transnationalism must be considered as a highly specific political and ideological formation, and analyzes transnational projects such as those reflected in the memorialization film of actor Bruce Lee and Congolese political leader Patrice Lumumba. The chapter contends that attention to transnational movements and formations raises fundamental questions about who should tell the story of the Cold War and comments on Kamila Shamsie's critically acclaimed 2009 book Burnt Shadows. It also shows that interconnectedness of the Cold War with national and transnational histories that predated the particular policies/crises of the Cold War.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Bonobos and chimpanzees are closely related, yet they exhibit important differences in their wild socio-ecology. Whereas bonobos live in environments with less seasonal variation and more access to fallback foods, chimpanzees face more competition over spatially distributed, variable resources. This chapter argues that bonobo and chimpanzee cognition show psychological signatures of their divergent wild ecology. Current evidence shows that despite strong commonalities in many cognitive domains, apes express targeted differences in specific cognitive skills critical for wild foraging behaviours. In particular, bonobos exhibit less accurate spatial memory, reduced levels of patience and greater risk aversion than do chimpanzees. These results have implications for understanding the evolution of human cognition, as studies of apes are a critical tool for modelling the last common ancestor of humans with nonhuman apes. Linking comparative cognition to species’ natural foraging behaviour can begin to address the ultimate reason for why differences in cognition emerge across species. Les bonobos et les chimpanzés sont prochement liés, pourtant ils montrent d’importantes différences dans leur sociologie naturelle. Alors que les bonobos vivent dans des environnements avec peu de diversité de climat entre saisons et plus d’accès à des ressources de nourriture alternatives, les chimpanzés ménagent une compétition étalée spatialement et des ressources plus variées. Je soutiens que la cognition des chimpanzés et bonobos montre les signatures psychologiques de leur écologie naturelle divergente. Les témoignages courants montrent que, malgré les forts points communs dans en cognition, les grands singes expriment des différences au niveau de compétences cognitives importantes au butinage. En particulier, les bonobos démontrent une mémoire spatial moin précise, moin de patience, et plus d’aversion de risques que les chimpanzés. Ces résultats fournissent des signes dans l’étude de l’évolution de la cognition humaine. Les études des grands singe sont un outil d’importance majeure dans la modélisation du dernier ancêtre commun des humains et grands singes non-humains. Faire des liens cognitives comparatives entre le butinage des différentes espèces peut commencer à dévoiler les raisons pour les différences de cognition entre espèces.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Les intellectuels de gauche s’intéresse à l’engagement des intellectuels progressistes dans la vie politique suisse, de la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale au fameux cycle de contestation de 1968, une période souvent délaissée par la recherche historique. Revenant sur l’action politique de personnalités, parfois oubliées, qui ont préparé le terrain à la contestation des années 1970, ce livre permet aussi de mieux comprendre le conservatisme helvétique de l’époque de la guerre froide et la manière dont l’establishment a marginalisé, voire réprimé, des personnalités jugées trop critiques. Alors que la recherche historique en Suisse est souvent fragmentée, en raison du plurilinguisme et du fédéralisme, ce livre propose une véritable histoire nationale, impliquant aussi bien la partie alémanique que francophone du pays, sur une période couvrant un quart de siècle, tout en replaçant la vie politique et intellectuelle helvétique en perspective européenne et internationale. Il restitue enfin dans toute leur complexité la diversité des courants et sensibilités au sein de la gauche et leur évolution.

Abstract (sommario):
The conversion of a considerable number of supporters of the Oxford Movement between 1845 and 1851 raised a chorus of condemnations, but also led to the publication of the individual reasons which had led the converts to Rome. In such writings, the converts insisted that the path they had taken was the result of mature consideration and of inescapable dictates of conscience: to remain in the Church of England, they claimed, would have endangered their souls. They maintained that those who remained in the Church of England did so at the cost of abandoning the very principles which had inspired the Movement; they took refuge in and looked for Anglican legitimacy under the banner of private judgement.

Abstract (sommario):
Roads, bridges, aqueducts and canals are amongst the physical infrastructures that allowed Roman dominance over the Empire, while meeting economic, social and strategic needs. Due to their structural role in the management and control of a territory, they must be examined in view of the “longue durée”, which necessarily raises the issue of their regular maintenance and occasional restoration. By studying the interactions between different political and administrative authorities, but also the involvement of private individuals, be they users or riverside occupants, the papers gathered in this volume highlight the rehabilitation procedures of road and hydraulic facilities, but also the prevention strategies against potentially irreversible damages. To understand the overall legal framework, along with the technical constraints and socio-political modalities of these interventions, a multidisciplinary approach was adopted to foster the dialogue between history, archaeology and Roman law.

Abstract (sommario):
This book explores Beckett’s representation of physical pain in his theatre plays in the long aftermath of World War II, emphasising how the issues raised by this staging of pain speak directly to matters lying at the heart of his work: the affective power of the human body, the doubtful capacity of language as a means of communication, the aesthetic and ethical functioning of the theatre medium, and the vexed question of intersubjective empathy. Alongside the wartime and post-war plays of fellow Francophone writers Albert Camus, Eugène Ionesco, Pablo Picasso, and Marguerite Duras, it resituates Beckett’s early plays in a new conceptualising of le théâtre du témoin or a ‘theatre of the witness’. These are plays concerned with the epistemological and ethical uncertainties of witnessing another’s pain, rather than with the sufferer’s own direct experience. They raise troubling questions about our capacity to comprehend and respond to another being’s pain. Drawing on an interdisciplinary framework of extant criticism, recorded historical audience response, theatre and affect theory, and medical understandings of bodily pain, this book argues that these plays do not offer any easily negotiable encounter with physical suffering, and instead push us to recognise the very ‘otherness’ of another being’s pain even as it invades our own affective sphere. In place of any comforting transcendence or redemption of endured pain, they offer a starkly sceptical, even pessimistic probing of what it is to witness another’s suffering.

Barash, Carol Isaacson. Just Genes. Praeger, 2007. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9798400675256.

Abstract (sommario):
Advances in genetics research, largely, though not entirely, spawned by the Human Genome Project, have led to a broad array of new technologies that promise to revolutionize life as we have known it. Medicine and agriculture are already starting to utilize new technologies to greatly improve disease prevention and treatment and food production. Yet, these improvements often raise ethical questions that are not easy to untangle. Some have gone as far to as to argue that certain applications, such as embryonic stem cell research, threaten the very fiber of our moral compass. While the application of scientific advances to better humankind has always raised thorny ethical issues, the ethical impact of genetic advances arguably reaches a new height because the applicability of advances is exceptionally broad, deep, and potentially irreversible. To utilize such technologies could mean saving thousands of lives, but where and how do we draw the line? Here, Barash sheds light on the actual ethical concerns surrounding various types of genetic technologies, introducing readers to the competing issues at stake in the arguments about the scientific application of the new technologies available and those on the horizon. She begins by illustrating the history of genetic advances, their societal applications, and the ethical issues that have arisen from those applications. Using case studies and examples throughout, she walks readers through the various considerations involved in a variety of areas related to the application of genetic technologies currently available and possible in the future. Covering topics ranging from stem cell research to genetically modified food, genetic mapping to cloning, this book offers a thoughtful approach to the complex issues at play in the various fields of genetic technologies.
