Повний текст джерелаDuring the XXth century, the viru-gallinazo term first refers to ceramic’s style and after it distinguishes a culture. Today, the archaeological consensus includes the viru-gallinazo remains as a"cultural phenomenon" and seeks to define it. But the epistemology shows the fragmented aspect on which are based those interpretations.This thesis proposes then a more complex approach of the viru-gallinazo "cultural phenomenon". It is based on the following ideas: art does not reflect the entirety of cultural events. Finally the meaning of an object may vary according to the context in which it is located. For that reason, this study sets out a crossed contextual analysis of the different categories of remains

Повний текст джерелаSe si considera una disciplina come un prodotto storico delle dinamiche che intercorrono tra istituzioni, comunità scientifiche e le loro pratiche (Danziger, 1995), la produzione scientifica, quale prodotto di queste dinamiche, può essere considerata cruciale per delinearne la storia. Studiare la storia di una disciplina a partire dalla sua produzione scientifica significa cogliere come questa viene costruita attorno a una determinata comunità , dal momento che ne contiene teorie, metodi e ambiti applicativi (Trevisani & Tuzzi, 2015; 2018). L'obiettivo della presente dissertazione è offrire una rappresentazione della storia della psicologia sociale in due comunità o centri (cfr. Danziger, 1996), europeo e nord-americano, storicamente legati e fulcro di questioni dibattute. Per farlo si è partiti dallo studio dell'evoluzione temporale dei contenuti di due riviste centrali nei rispettivi contesti: European Journal of Social Psychology e Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. In particolare si intende: 1) offrire una riflessione sul contributo dei metodi usati nel tracciare la storia di una disciplina, 2) individuare la direzione delle pubblicazioni tra prospettive e metodi egemoni e marginali e 3) contribuire a una riflessione sulla disciplina stessa. Dal momento che veicolano attraverso parole chiave i contenuti degli articoli, sono stati raccolti tutti i titoli e gli abstract delle due riviste dalla loro fondazione (rispettivamente 1971 e 1965) fino all'ultimo numero del 2016. Per mezzo dell'analisi delle corrispondenze lessicali (software SPAD), è stata esplorata la presenza di un andamento temporale latente nelle occorrenze delle parole chiave. È stata così proposta una panoramica dei contenuti principali che hanno caratterizzato ogni anno in ciascun corpus al fine di osservare e confrontare temi, processi e metodi discussi e trattati dalle due riviste. Inoltre, sono stati individuati e confrontati i principali argomenti (intesi come gruppi di parole a cui sottostà un significato comune) trattati dalle riviste e le loro traiettorie temporali per mezzo del metodo Reinert (1986) (software IRaMuTeQ e R) e Latent Dirichlet Allocation (Blei, Ng, & Jordan, 2003) (implementata in ambiente R). In seguito sono state tracciate le singole traiettorie delle parole chiave e sono state accomunate in cluster in base al loro andamento temporale (Functional Data Analysis e Curve Clustering) al fine di individuarne il "ciclo di vita" (Trevisani & Tuzzi, 2015; 2018). Infine sono state svolte alcune interviste a psicologi sociali per discutere con loro alcuni dei risultati delle analisi delle riviste e mettere in luce metodi e prospettive che potrebbero rimanere marginali nel campo e discutere sulla storia e lo sviluppo della disciplina. I risultati, nel complesso, sono stati discussi a) ponendo in essere un confronto tra le riviste e con la letteratura, b) riflettendo sui metodi utilizzati e c) a partire da alcuni questioni poste in principio - o emerse in corso d'opera - come salienti.

Повний текст джерелаDébitage of pressure microblades appeared in the archaeological record about 20,000 years ago in Northeast Asia, followed by their diffusion toward Central Asia as well as toward Siberia, Alaska, and British Columbia. This research analyzes the spread of these microblade industries from the Asian Far East to North America, utilizing many archaeological collections from Primorye, Siberia, and northwest North America as the basis of a meticulous typo-technological study. The easy recognition of microblade-bearing sites allows studying the evolution, on a wide geographical and chronological scale, of the technoeconomic system during the initial peopling of the New World, while retaining technologically comparable backgrounds. The singularity of this work lies not only in the chosen subject but also in the chosen methodology, i.e., the application of lithic technology as developed by the French school to the study of Palaeolithic industries with microblade components, as well as to some issues concerning the first peopling of the New World. Many questions will be discussed, including: What is the geographical and chronological origin of the first pressure microblade industries? Can we highlight some factors that stimulated such an invention? How were microblades used? What elements can explain the variability of the débitage-producing methods? Is the progression of microblade industries the result of a technological diffusion or a human migration? Can any preferential migratory routes be identified? Is the associated toolkit highly variable or is it relatively constant? How does the analysis of lithic technology allow the assessment of interactions between groups? The new approach developed here addresses the issues from a different angle and leads to new visions, proposals, and results that are noticeably different from those that have been suggested to date

Повний текст джерелаThe idea of theatricality appeared in the context of avant-garde theater at the beginning of the XXth century, was theorised in the 1960s, and has recently been a subject of renewed interest for numerous contemporary artists. The notion was originally created by theater practitioners and theorists to distinguish it as an autonomous art form, different from literature or film. Currently, it is in the field of visual art that theatricality is most vital, explored either as a positive reference to theater or a more negative "theatrophobic" stance. These allusions, whether thematic or structural, illustrate that theatricality can no longer be strictly confined to the field of theater. Taking into account the notion's historical applications and elaborating a panorama of its manifestations, this study examines how several non-theatrical contemporary art practices have become another stage for the theater. It is as if certain artists found in this archaic and unique "non-art" a paradigm or an anti-paradigm, stimulating new approaches vis à vis their own mediums, representational modalities and the spectator's position. This study challenges discourses that ignore each art's defining characteristics and that claim the (incessant) death of theater by illustrating the continual appearance of the later in other artistic domains. Pure theatrical form is not necessarily questioned in these works; however, theater provides a solid model. This "famous" theatricality is as mutational as it is fundamental and establishes - through an interesting play between the different practices that engage it - a key field for reflecting the contemporaneity of theater

Повний текст джерелаThe museological relations developed between France and North America have been explored by researchers in museology but these have hardly exploited the wealth of information contained in the French collections of North American objects. The history of the making of the Fayolle Collection, which gave birth to the Cabinet of Sérent at Versailles has been studied over a period starting with New-France and going as far as our present days, in order to gather material that could be of help to future research by art historians and French curators. The private origin of this collection dating 1767 has been explored at length to favour a more objective writing of the history of the museums in France, among which that of the short-lived Versailles National Museum. This collection has proved to be a case study of the development and culture of French museology in contact with a North American material culture, exceptionally preserved in the space of French museums. Its collecting practices have been approached not only from the point of view of a French institutional history but also considering it as a North American museographical heritage. An actual history of the places, but also a descriptive work of the actors of this heritage has been written using archives and documents either rediscovered or mostly unpublished. The major role played by individual and social interactions within museum environments in the interpretation of French collecting in American territories has been reaffirmed. The analysis going as far as 2007 of the exhibition of the objects of this cabinet as a patrimonial element of French museography has testified to the existence of a cultural continuum between France and North America. Over the period of time under study a French-American praxis of museology has been revealed through the diversification of professional and academic circles of French museology. Moreover museum logics specific to spaces devoted to North American collections in France have appeared. Those conclusions characterize the Fayolle collection, a witness to a shared theorization of the field that is Museology

Повний текст джерелаThe Cherokee Indians, an ancient matrilineal North American tribe, once occupied the vast Southern Appalachian region of the United States. After De Soto's arrivai in 1540, Europeans and their Euro-American successors colonized in the name of Manifest Destiny the abundant Cherokee homelands. Epidemics repeatedly struck, and after discovery of gold on Cherokee land, President Andrew Jackson and the U. S. Congress ordered the removal of some 17,000 Cherokees who were forced to march over 1,200 miles to Oklahoma in 1838-39. On the "Trail of Tears," around 4,000 Cherokees died, and many more perished the next year. Early-on, the European and American patriarchies also attempted to remove the powerful Cherokee women from tribal governance. Boarding schools were then created to destroy their tenacious culture, and Cherokee children were taken to be Christianized and assimilated into mainstream American society. In spite of broken treaties, Removal, and assimilation pressures now spanning centuries, the matrilineal clan system has survived. Guided by Selu, the Corn Mother, Cherokee women have remained the guardians of the tribe's social, political, and religious consciousness, and they continue to be influenced by the paradigm of the sacred, consonant circle central to their worldview. The ethnohistorical approach of this cultural biography of Cherokee women reveals their tragedies and triumphs
Dumont, Agathe. "Pour une exploration du geste virtuose en danse, passage XXe-XXIe siècles. Danseurs, "breakers", acrobates au travail." Thesis, Paris 3, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA030165.
Повний текст джерелаThis doctoral thesis in performing arts offers an approach to practice, discourse and representations around the notion of virtuosity in dancing. It looks into forms currently mutating on today’s choreographic and interdisciplinary stage, focusing on the way various performers incorporate virtuosic movement into their interpretation, at the juncture between the 20th and the 21st centuries. Observing the transfers taking place between disciplines, this research is built on a corpus of twelve performers: dancers, breakers and acrobats. The first stage of the approach was to make them describe the path they had followed, their working habits, their perception of a virtuosic move, and to make observations about the shows they take part in. This analysis is based on a corpus of productions (contemporary dance, contemporary circus, breakdance) and interviews presented in the appendix. Virtuosity is thus investigated from the point of view of the performer, considered inside a complex system and presented as a form of indiscipline. Based on a number of observations and methodologies specific to movement analysis and aesthetic analysis, this research proposes an exploration of the virtuosic movement with respect to certain transdisciplinary migrations and examines the questions of the presence and significance of new forms of virtuosity on the contemporary stage, in an attempt to redefine its terms and practices

Повний текст джерелаSince the 1970s, performance artists have been inspired by feminism. This pioneering decade is well documented, but what about the three following decades? “Feminism in the lives and work of performance artists in Europe and Northern America between 1980 and 2010” will study twenty-five artists in seventeen countries to review second and third wave feminism through their work. The aim of this research is to shine some light on these performance artists and their work with regard to feminist issues. Three aspects will be discussed : the first steps in the artists’careers, the various sources and shapes of the influence of feminism and the place this influence had in their works.The research is about the following artists : Lorraine O’Grady, Esther Ferrer, Mierle Laderman Ukeles, Kirsten Justesen, Marina Abramović, Maria Klonaris et Katerina Thomadaki, Pauline Cummins, Anne Bean, Ody Saban, Annie Abrahams, Vlasta Delimar, Verena Kyselka, Nieves Correa, Katarzyna Kozyra, Annika Ström, Iris Selke, Malin Arnell, Victoria Stanton, Carole Douillard, Eivind Reierstad, Mariuccia Pisani, Sands-Murray Wassink, Marijs Boulogne and Mara Maglione

Повний текст джерелаThis dissertation examines those works of fiction and travel writing by Herman Melville in which the author constructs regional imaginaries of a Latin-American identity. The research starts with an analysis of the novels Typee and Omoo, which take place in ‘uncivilized’ islands, and contrast their depictions with those of three texts that deal with Latin America: The Encantadas, Benito Cereno, and Moby-Dick, as well as with other shorter texts such as “The Piazza”, always focusing on Peruvian or Ecuadorian themes. All three longer pieces display the motives of Melville’s vision of Latin America as a land that epitomizes the exoticism of the Indian Chroniclers, and whose depiction is also permeated by the scientific and naturalist inquiries of the 18th and 19th centuries. The region is presented as seeking its own identity after achieving its independence from the Spanish empire, while being closely haunted by the expansionist interests of another consolidating power in the nineteenth-century geopolitical map: the United States. This is especially the case in Melville’s presentation of the Galápagos islands. The dissertation also provides an analysis of the Melville’s Latin-American characters that are presented as a globalizing connection of the U.S. with its southern neighbors, and which include figures such as the ‘tapada’ from Lima, the chola widow, the hermit Oberlus, the Cuban creole, etc. The study also analyzes aspects such as the modes of address in the region, the system of whitening, and the use of Spanish in Anglophone contexts. Finally, the thesis provides a case study of a specific feature: the Ecuadorian gold doubloon in the context of the whale industry, offering an account of the real history of the coin and of how it connects Moby-Dick with Ecuador, the United States, Old Spain, and Latin America within the history of the nineteenth century.

Повний текст джерелаThe global demand for food and energy is constantly increasing. As access to spare arable land is limited, growers will have to produce about 70% more per hectare by 2050. Optimization and rationalization of the agricultural production systems is then critical to ensure food security under sustainable conditions. The agricultural community would be in a position to optimize crop performance by better understanding the cropping systems, especially regarding potential production and limiting factors. In this context, the ability to characterize crop growing conditions in regards to their impacts on potential yield and yield gap is important in order to identify margins of progress and propose improved farming systems.An approach is proposed to characterize the crop environment of large geographical areas taking into consideration the impact on crop performance of the key resources for plant development (temperature, solar radiation, water and nitrogen). The level of availability of each resource was estimated by using crop modeling approaches integrating weather data and soil characteristics as inputs. The efficiency of use of the available resources was characterized by crop practices, grower strategy and grower technical environment. A generic integration procedure was established and used to describe corn production for grain in North America from 1991 to 2013. The resulting dataset covers 84% of the total corn planted area, deciphered in 1,558 elementary spatial units, for a total of 28,303 independent scenarios. Such a method combines and harmonizes, at scale, yield observations from agricultural statistics with a large set of relevant descriptors of growing conditions.A subset of 21 main limiting factors was identified through variable-selection analysis to explain 66% of the observed yield-gap variability. The relaxed lasso method resulted in an interesting compromise between interpretability and prediction ability. The selected descriptors highlighted the contribution of crop management in yield-gap variability, especially regarding levels of crop intensification and the technical environment of growers. The third main factor is water availability and resulting drought. The integration of knowledge in crop physiology into descriptor design significantly improved the interpretability of the proposal and the confidence of end-users in the approach.Yield-gap patterns were used to identify the set of most frequent Environment Types. Two approaches were proposed: one focused on crop physiology drivers and another also considered market-size homogeneity among Environment Types. This resulted in 11 Environment Types based on crop physiology drivers and 8 Environment Types when combining crop physiology drivers and market constraints. Crop-physiology Environment Types are very informative on the historical evolution of cultural practices and the changes in grower strategies over the studied period. Such categorization of growing conditions demonstrated the ability to reproduce field expertise and support genotype evaluation. Three business Use Cases were used to illustrate the interest of the approach in (i) describing the environmental history of a market, (ii) defining relevant Target Population Environments (TPE) and (iii) evaluating the environmental sampling relevance of Multi-Environment Trials (MET)

Повний текст джерелаCoastal ecosystems are exposed to global climate change leading to modifications of their structure and functioning. However, little is known about their environmental variability before 1950. The hard parts of long-lived marine biota hold the potential to extend instrumentally derived observations, at different temporal and spatial resolutions, in order to enhance our understanding of past environmental processes. This PhD dissertation takes place on Saint-Pierre & Miquelon (SPM), a small archipelago at the confluence of major oceanic currents marking the boundary between the North Atlantic Ocean subtropical and subpolar gyres. In addition to its global key position, a local phenomenon, leads, during the stratified period, to the largest (up to 12°C amplitude) daily (25.8 h) temperature oscillations ever observed-at any frequency-on a stratified mid latitude continental shelf. This work is based on calcified structures of local marine organism analyses, to gain insights about past environmental variability at these two scales. The relationships observed between the sclerochronological records from these different marine biota and several environmental dataset, allowed us to highlight the relevant position of SPM for studying multiple scale oceanographic variability, biological responses of different benthic species and the dynamics of coastal ecosystems, at different time scales (from the tide to the last 165 years) and space scales (from SPM archipelago to North Atlantic Ocean)

Повний текст джерелаTo create a channel of communication for those who are in most need, to learn to work and live together. Here are a few themes that reoccur once we(one)engage(s) in discussion with those working in Social Circus scene. I will summarize the two reasons that pushed me to make this research. Firstly, the desire to understand the function and evolution of the work of construction or reconstruction of social ties between children and adolescents in challenging life situations- particularly those from certain obvious minorities - and the rest of normal society. Secondly, the need to understand and to take note of how an artistic medium like that of the circus often considered archaic, old-fashioned and marginalized can have the tools necessary to aid minorities and be capable of helping them to develop their potential, build their self-esteem, enrich their lives, prevent social dysfunctions, solve problems and provoke social change on a personal level as well as a global level. The locations chosen for this research are: certain parts of North America and Brazil, particularly the state of Rio de Janeiro .Furthermore this study is intended to raise questions about what can be considered a discordance: the fact that those who would be most able to benefit from these programs are the least likely to be offered access to such an opportunity. I would also like to draw attention to the fact that African-Americans are still drastically underrepresented in the world of Circus Arts.How do we comprehend the implications of these programs ? How can strong, positive, social behaviors evolve inside of these places but also outside of their walls ? Precisely what role do these “Social Circuses” play when their aim is not primarily focused on training professional circus artists ?

Повний текст джерелаBased on six fieldworks conducted in several regions of Senegal (Petite Côte, Saloum, Saint-Louis, Oriental Senegal and Dakar), this thesis explores the social mechanisms which articulate class and race issues in different contexts of mobility and migration from Europe and North America. The trajectories, practices and ways of socializing investigated are related to seaside and cultural tourism, individual entrepreneurship in post-tourist contexts, study abroad programs and professional flows of voluntary service and expatriation. These social and globalized settings, often addressed in distinct fields of research, underlie a cross analysis of the constructions of two ethnicity – whiteness and africaness – considered as emic and etic notions. The social identities they produce respond to one another and reveal recurring patterns in social hierarchy and racial confrontation throughout individual interactions and collective dynamics. They also echo logics of social stratification and selection within the Senegalese society, which are combined with culturalist and ethnic representations, beyond color markers. The contexts of mobility and migration investigated are embedded into specific socio-historical backgrounds, transnational asymmetry of class and process of identification based on religion, phenotype and gender. They all reflect the heuristic value of whiteness and its production of identity in social, racialized and ethnicized categorization, regarding multiple meanings of africaness. Analyzing these mechanisms of social distinction in an African society such as Senegal leads to face postcolonial thinking with the ambiguities of social spheres. It also questions the positionality of researchers through ethnography and in the production of knowledge about Africa

Повний текст джерелаEsta tesis doctoral analiza el caso de "Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land (1876)" , un poema universalista de Herman Melville, que analiza la necesidad, el potencial politico, y los desafíos de la intersubjetividad para el desarrollo de relaciones humanas más democráticas fuera de los muros del individualismo y de comunidades tradicionales organizadas sobre nociones como estado-nación, “raza”, cultura, afiliación religiosa, o identidades sexuales. Mi argumento es que, en Clarel, Melville concibe lo que he llamado “universalismo intersubjetivo” como un proceso eticopolítico sujeto al potencial y a las limitaciones de aquellos que pueden tanto desarrollarlo como neutralizarlo: seres humanos condicionados por sus miedos, comportamientos egocéntricos y, últimamente, por su imperfecta y limitada naturaleza humana. En este sentido, mi tesis argumenta que Clarel da continuidad a la exploración recurrente de Melville de los peligros, las bellezas, y las interconexiones de las (im)posibilidades de la intersubjetividad, el universalismo, y la democracia. Estas exploraciones están divididas entre el potencial democratizador que el autor situaba en las relaciones interpersonales y en la triste conciencia de que los seres humanos quizás nunca materializarían tal proyecto democrático. Mi tesis se divide en dos capítulos, que corresponden a los dos ejes principales de mi estudio: la defensa y la articulación del universalismo intersubjetivo que concibo en el poema de Melville Clarel desde un punto de vista teórico, por un lado, y mi interpretación de Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land como poema universalista, representativo del proyecto político literario de Herman Melville, por otro lado. Con tal de justificar mi defensa de Clarel como poema universalista, esta tesis doctoral incorpora los puntos de vista de teóricos contemporáneos como Hannah Arendt, Etienne Balibar, Zygmunt Bauman, Martin Buber, Judith Butler, Jacques Derrida, Ernesto Laclau, Emmanuel Levinas, Jean-Luc Nancy, Martha Nussbaum, y Linda Zerilli, entre otros, cuyos análisis sobre comunidad, intersubjectividad, relaciones interpersonales, ética global, y universalismo, desde las perspectivas del postestructuralismo, la sociología, la filosofía, y la política, fundamentan mi propio trabajo.

Повний текст джерелаBackground: Diabetes is increasing globally,presenting a growing public health problem. The rapid rise of obesity, physical inactivity, and an increasinglyelderly populationcontribute to this epidemic. The increase in obesity and diabetes coincide with increased intake of sugary and artificially sweetened drinks. Aim: This study aimed to investigate whether the consumption of regularor diet soft drinks predicts the incidence of type2 diabetes. Method: We used data collected from the Adventist Health Study-2, a prospective cohort study. The data was based on a baseline questionnaire, as well as a follow-up form (i.e., hospital history form-3) distributed to previous respondents up to 6 years later. Both questionnaire and follow-upformasked about a possible diabetes diagnosis and date of diagnosis. Importantly, Adventist Health Study-2 excluded individiuals who presented with diabetes at baseline. Among 45,777 subjects, the study detected 1,277 new cases of diabetes. Analyses were conducted both with and without body mass index. Complementary log-log Cox analysis was used to calculate hazard ratios(HR)and corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Results: Adjusted for demographic variables, body mass index, type of diet, physical activity, and fiber and magnesiumintake, multvariateanalysis showed that consumptionof ≥1 can (355 ml) of diet soda/day was associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes (HR=1.46, 95% CI, 1.19 to 1.73;p<0.001). In comparison,consumptionof ≥ 1 can of regular soda/daydid not increaserisk of diabetes (HR = 1.20, 95% CI, 0.95 to 1.50). The associations were strengthened and statistically significant for both types of soda when not adjusted for BMI. Other risk factors for developing diabetes included age, male gender, non-white ethnicity, and body mass index. High intake of magnesiumandfiber, higher education,and a vegetarian diet were protective against the disease. Conclusion: Consumption of diet soda was significantly associated with the development of type 2 diabetes.

Повний текст джерелаThe recognition of the duties of controlling shareholders raises a preliminary issue with respect to the right to vote: is it a personal right which the shareholder may lawfully exercise in his own interest? Or should such right be exercised with a certain end in view, i. E. The general interest of the company? Now, it is admitted in France and in the United States, and to a lesser extent in England, that a controlling shareholder may not disregard the interest of the company. But the means used to apply such principle are different. French law relies on the concept of "abuse of majority" to cancel resolutions of shareholders meetings which are contrary to the general interest of the company and have been voted for the sole purpose of favoring the members of the majority at the expense of the members of the minority. English courts have construed the "fraud on the minority" concept in a restrictive way; but statutory provisions make various remedies available to minority shareholders and seek to deter certain misconducts of the majority. U. S. Law has long recognized that, when voting, controlling shareholders, like directors and officers, have fiduciary duties to the company and its minority shareholders. As for sales of control, U. S Law imposes certain duties on the seller of a controlling interest under certain circumstances. The French sale of control regulation only applies to sales of controlling blocks of stock on the stock exchange. English law contains only a few provisions in this respect

Повний текст джерелаMy research aims at studying the Nord-American short story in relation to a form to which it is inextricably linked, the short story cycle, which, halfway between history and novel, is set as a series of interconnected stories presenting some recurring elements (characters, place, themes). The reflection on the short story cycle will give priority to the analysis of Alice Munro's work placed in a comparative perspective, in relation and continuity, not only with the work of 'Canadian writers' masters' of the genre, but also with the tradition of the American short story cycle
Il presente lavoro si propone di analizzare la forma narrativa del ciclo di racconti, mettendone in luce le caratteristiche in relazione all’opera di Alice Munro. Il corpus narrativo di Munro, formato da quattordici raccolte in un arco temporale che copre più di quarant’anni (la prima raccolta, Dance of the Happy Shades esce ne 1968 e l’ultima, Dear Life nel 2012), ben si presta a questo tipo di studio. Nell’ arco della sua prolifica opera Munro ha esplorato le potenzialità della forma breve, rimodulando progressivamente i confini fra i generi, scomponendone le prospettive e gli esiti possibili ora nella direzione della novella modernista (cara a scrittrici come Katherine Mansfield ed Eudora Welty), ora nella creazione di cicli di storie o di serie di racconti interconnessi, destrutturando o risemantizzando la nozione di brevità e di genere letterario. Il lavoro, che si presenta come un case study, si propone un duplice obiettivo: quello di estendere la nozione di ciclo di racconti e di includerla in quella di “politesto” , (ossia quella categoria critica che concepisce l’opera letteraria, la raccolta di racconti ad esempio, come processo aggregativo mettendo in luce tutti quei legami intertestuali e intratestuali che i singoli testi intrattengono fra di loro) e quello di applicare questa categoria all’opera di Alice Munro, ovvero studiare, con gli strumenti della teoria della letteratura e della comparatistica, i rapporti tra i racconti, nella loro natura intra ed intertestuale, e tra le raccolte stesse analizzate sulla base della loro natura politestuale

Повний текст джерелаIn history, United States did not focus on North African issues. American leaders consider that this part of the world is under European influence, especially under French influence. The Second World War, decolonization in the 1950s and 1960s and the Western Sahara dispute in the 1980s are the periods during which American presence has been the most active. Yet, the Maghreb was not kept out the stakes and challenges facing the world in the 1990s. How did the Bush and Clinton Administrations consider the North African authoritarian regimes, socially weakened by endemic debts and unable to provide an alternative response to the popular call for Islamist parties ? In the making of American foreign policy, which actors are bound to the Maghreb region ? Which roles played the Congress, the media, the political parties as the Maghreb faced the booming of Islam as a political force ? Are there any interests of American parties or American political and economic clans in the Maghreb ? Are there any antagonist positions inside the Congress and the executive branch about the policy to conduct in the region ?

Late in the XIX century, the Spanish administration in the Philippines began a task of investing in infrastructures to develop a production model based on “produce to export”. To carry it out, expanded the port of Manila, giving it a structure that allow access of large tonnage ships, on the other hand, was connected with the railway, with a line crossing Luzon, and a way out for the production of the plantation sites. The U.S. administration continued the expansion of this line, and expanded also the road network and the urban tramways, with a continuous policy based on investment in infrastructures on the routes started and initially projected by the Spanish government.

Повний текст джерелаThe NE American margin represents one of the best studied margins in the world, it was the subject of several scientific programs. In comparison, the conjugate NW African margin remains fairly unknown, only two deep seismic cruises were acquired: the SISMAR cruise (2001) offshore the Meseta and the DAKHLA cruise (2002) offshore the Sahara. The deep structure of the Canadian margin is known due to the SMART wide-angle seismic profiles 1, 2 and 3. The first objective of the MIRROR project was to acquire combined wide-angle and deep reflection seismic data offshore a segment conjugate to the SMART-1 profile. The comparison between the homologous segments of these two margins aimed to better understand the opening mechanism of the Central Atlantic Ocean. A comparison between Sismar, Dakhla and Mirror models shows that the continental crust is thicker in the north and thins toward the south. The width of the transition zone is narrower south and Sismar profiles are located on a sedimentary basin placed on a very thinned continental crust. Comparing the Mirror profile with that of the Canadian conjugate margin (Smart 1) shows that the thickness, the structure of the continental crust and the thinning is very similar. However, zones of exhumed and serpentinized mantle were imaged along the Canadian profile that have no conjugate on the African margin. Moreover, the thickness of the oceanic crust is variable with 8 km on the African side and only 3-4 km on the Canadian margin. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain this difference (a) an age difference between the two types of crust (b) thickening associated with the passage of the Canary hotspot (c) an asymmetric accretion or (d) an accretion at slow to ultra-slow speading centers

Повний текст джерелаThese main theses are developed throughout two main parts and five different chapters. Whereas Part I (chapters 1-2) tries to offer a general theoretical introduction to American studies of masculinities, in general, and to the analysis of white heterosexual masculinity, the focus of this study, in particular, Part II (chapters 3-5) applies an interdisciplinary corpus of masculinity studies (formed by sociology, psychology and psychoanalysis, anthropology, philosophy, history, literary theory and literature, etc.) to prove and analyze the influence of masculinity on the construction of emotions and violence in contemporary American culture and literature. These two topics have been selected considering their special relevance, as the thesis illustrates, to contemporary American culture, in general, and masculinity scholarship, in particular.
Trying to offer a theoretical introduction to masculinity studies in the United States, Chapter 1 begins exploring the origins and development of these studies. The chapter acknowledges as well the influence of feminism, which can and should be embraced by both women and men, on the study of masculinity, and concludes by pointing to the latest trends of masculinity studies in the United States.
Chapter 2 goes on to reconcile feminist politics with the deconstructive analysis of masculinity's internal contradictions. It posits that it is no longer clear that feminist theory should rely on notions of fixed identity in order to go on with politics. Instead, it explores the new political possibilities that might emerge from a radical critique of masculine identity.
Rethinking the subject of emotions, chapter 3 shows how the exclusive association of emotions with femininity is a socio-historical construction which might, therefore, be questioned and changed. Focus is thus given to the links between masculinity and emotion in American culture, in order to analyze the political potential of profeminist men's emotions to transform masculinities and gender relations. It is argued that emotion plays a central role in profeminist men's socio-political struggles against gender inequality, as their numerous campaigns against domestic violence or their increasing involvement in childcare, for example, are showing.
Chapter 4 demonstrates how cultural and literary representations of masculinity are particularly relevant to the analysis of the social and political construction of masculinities. Offering a general introduction to studies of American literary masculinities, the chapter explores the origins, development, and critical possibilities of this innovative research field. As is argued, revisiting American literature from a men's studies perspective might help question patriarchal notions of masculinities and look for new, alternative, non-oppressive patterns of manhood.
Most of these theoretical arguments about literary masculinities are developed and exemplified in chapter 5, which incorporates literature into the discussion of masculinity and violence in American culture. Crossing the divide between "reality" and "fiction," then, chapter 5 analyzes the social and literary construction of male violence. Even though the connection between masculinity and violence seems deeply ingrained in the cultural and literary history of the U.S., chapter 5 concludes that what was culturally constructed might, hopefully, be culturally de-constructed, too, and that American literature could play an important role in this de-construction.
Esta tesis intenta hacer el género visible a los hombres, teorizando las masculinidades en la cultura y literatura de los Estados Unidos. Se pretende demostrar que los hombres (blancos y heterosexuales), al igual que las mujeres, están dotados de un género específico; que están, por tanto, sometidos a procesos de adquisición de género social, cultural e históricamente específicos; y que, en la cultura estadounidense actual, dichos procesos de adquisición de género juegan un papel fundamental en las vidas cotidianas de los hombres así como sus representaciones literarias. Centrándose en la masculinidad como una construcción política y social específica, antes que una entidad universal e inmutable, el estudio procura, en última instancia, demostrar que lo que fue formado socialmente puede ser igualmente re-formado social y culturalmente.
Estas tesis generales son desarrolladas a lo largo de dos partes principales y cinco capítulos diferentes. Mientras que la primera parte (capítulos 1-2) intenta ofrecer una introducción general a los estudios estadounidenses sobre masculinidades, en general, y al análisis de la masculinidad blanca y heterosexual, el foco de este estudio, en particular, la segunda parte (capítulos 3-5) aplica un corpus interdisciplinario de estudios de las masculinidades (formado por la sociología, psicología y psicoanálisis, antropología, filosofía, historia, teoría literaria y literatura, etc.) al análisis de la influencia de la masculinidad en la construcción de las emociones y la violencia en la cultura y literatura estadounidenses contemporáneas. Estos dos temas han sido seleccionados considerando su especial relevancia, como la tesis ilustra, para la cultura americana contemporánea, en general, y los estudios de la masculinidad, en concreto.
Mientras que el capítulo 1 ofrece una visión panorámica de los estudios norteamericanos de las masculinidades, explorando sus orígenes y desarrollo, el capítulo 2 explora las nuevas tendencias de los estudios de la masculinidad, intentando reconciliar la política feminista con el análisis deconstructivista de las contradicciones internas de la masculinidad. El capítulo 3 procede a estudiar los vínculos entre la masculinidad y las emociones en la cultura americana, con el fin de analizar el potencial político de las emociones de los varones pro-feministas para transformar las masculinidades y las relaciones de género. Si el capítulo 4 proporciona una introducción teórica a los estudios de las masculinidades literarias estadounidenses, el capítulo 5 aplica los estudios de la masculinidad al análisis de la violencia masculina en la cultura y literatura de los Estados Unidos. Aunque la conexión entre masculinidad y violencia parece estar profundamente enraizada en la cultura norteamericana, el capítulo 5 concluye que lo que fue construido culturalmente puede ser también de-construido, y que la literatura norteamericana podría jugar un papel fundamental en dicha deconstrucción.

Повний текст джерелаThe evolution of the mexican economy over the last quarter-century can be summarised as follows: since 1970 the country has been plunged into a cyclical process of short-lived phases of economic growth followed by deep crises. These phases of growth-crisis result from the regime of capital accumulation and the way in which the mexican economy fits into the world market. This research is developed around these three aspects and covers the period from 1960 to 1995. It is intended in this work to differentiate between the endogenous causes of the mexican crisis and the external factors which have made it develop in a certain direction. This also makes it possible to understand better both the phenomenology of the crisis and its causes. In relation to both the exhaustion and the crisis of the capital accumulation regime based on import substitution as well as, more recently, the failure of the trade-liberalisation policy and the increased deregulation of the economy, the analysis is centred on the mechanisms through which capital accumulation is constituted and reproduced, that is to say on industrial production, forms of work organisation, profit distribution, state intervention, forms of intervention by finance capital and the way in which this sub-set fits into the world market
