How Consumer Information Curtails Market Power in the Funeral Industry
Auteurs : Patrice Bougette,Thierry Blayac,Christian Montet
Revue : European Journal of Law and Economics
Éditeur : Springer Verlag
Année : 2014

Based on the French market\, the purpose of this article is to show that contrary to common opinion in France about the impossibility of having a deregulation of the business of funeral services without observing abuses of many locally dominant suppliers\, improvement in consumer information\, along with the entry of a special storing facility service ("chambre funéraire")\, imposes enough competitive pressure on the various suppliers\, especially the former monopolist. With a Discrete Choice Experiment implemented in Lyon\, France\, we find evidence that even in this very emotionally charged market\, consumer behavior has changed in favor of a better assessment of the different possibilities of services supplied and of their relative prices (e.g.\, high price elasticities). We also implement simulations in local markets and show that with good consumer information the market power of supposedly dominant firms is far less important than generally believed. Lastly\, simulations stress the procompetitive effects of any business setting up a new storing facility.
Le travail de la peau au Magdalénien moyen ancien. Analyse techno-fonctionnelle des grattoirs de la Marche (Lussac-les-Châteaux\, Vienne)

Revue : Bulletin de la Société préhistorique française
Éditeur : Société préhistorique française
Année : 2018

Les procédés techniques liés au travail des peaux sont variés et peuvent être complexes. Les référentiels ethnographiques montrent que ces procédés sont fortement influencés par le contexte culturel\, social et économique. Reconstituer ces procédés peut donc apporter de riches informations sur le milieu technique des sociétés préhistoriques. Le travail des peaux laissant peu de traces sur les sites archéologiques\, il faut donc raisonner à partir des outils en pierre. La présente étude se base sur l’industrie lithique de la Marche (Lussac-les-Châteaux\, Vienne)\, considérée comme un pôle au sein du Magdalénien moyen ancien à pointes de Lussac-Angles. Elle conjugue l’analyse technologique et fonctionnelle de l’industrie afin de lier les procédés d’utilisation des outils à leur dynamique de production. La méthode choisie permet de reconstituer les chaînes opératoires depuis la production jusqu’au rejet des outils et d’approcher au plus près certains éléments du système technique. Les résultats montrent que les activités les mieux représentées sur le site sont liées au travail de la peau. Les grattoirs constituent l’outil privilégié pour la préparation des peaux. À partir de la comparaison du fonctionnement des grattoirs avec des cas ethnographiques\, des gestes techniques utilisés par les magdaléniens de la Marche ont été reconstitués. Au moins trois gestes sont impliqués dans un ou plusieurs procédés de traitement de peaux de différentes épaisseurs ont été identifiés. Ces nouvelles données permettent d’approcher les savoir-faire et traditions techniques des magdaléniens. L’étude des gestes techniques constitue un outil puissant de connaissance des sociétés paléolithiques\, en particulier pour les faciès du Magdalénien moyen ancien\, qui restent surtout définis typologiquement dans le Centre-Ouest de la France.

The Stackelberg games of water extraction with myopic agents
Auteurs : Alain Jean-Marie,Mabel Tidball,Víctor Bucarey
Revue : International Game Theory Review
Éditeur : World Scientific Publishing
Année : 2021

We consider a discrete time\, infinite horizon dynamic game of groundwater extraction.A Water Agency charges an extraction cost to water users\, and controls the marginal extraction cost so that it depends\, not only on the level of groundwater\, but also ontotal water extraction (through a parameter n that represents the degree of strategic interactions between water users) and on rainfall (through parameter m). The water users are selfish and myopic\, and the goal of the agency is to give them incentives so as to improve their total discounted welfare. We look at this problem in several situations. In the first situation\, the parameters n and m are considered to be fixed over time. A first result shows that when the Water Agency is patient (the discount factor tends to 1) the optimal marginal extraction cost asks for strategic interactions between agents. The contrary holds for a discount factor near 0. In a second situation\, we look at the dynamic Stackelberg game where the Agency decides at each time what cost parameter they must announce. We study theoretically and numerically the solution of this problem. Simulations illustrate the possibility thatthreshold policies are good candidates for optimal policies.
Relations sociales et cartographie cognitive. Les points de référence comme noyau central des représentations spatiales
Auteurs : Pierre Dias,Thierry Ramadier
Revue : Les cahiers Internationaux de Psychologie Sociale
Éditeur : Éd. de l'Université de Liège
Année : 2017

This study explores the existence of a central nucleus in cognitive mapping through the approach of the anchoring and objectivation process of representations. Thus\, it is not the geographical object that contributes to qualify and organize the spatial representation but rather the socio-cognitive processes of categorization. The carrying out of analyzes of similarity on the basis of hierarchized associations of places makes it possible to describe five representations of the urban space in our sample. They are differentiated by their spatial reference points\, which are even closely related to the social position (capital) and trajectory (socialization) of individuals. Spatial cognition schemes are revealed as social provisions in a system of social relations and emphasize the importance of understanding cognitive mapping as true social representations.

Argonauts and Icaruses: Social networks and dynamics of nascent international entrepreneurs
Auteurs : François Goxe,Ulrike Mayrhofer,Olli Kuivalainen
Revue : International Business Review
Année : 2022

Drawing on Bourdieu’s theory of practice\, we consider internationalization as a process of field crossing and apply this framework to nascent international entrepreneurs. The analysis of 37 interviews with French entrepreneurs\, managers\, and support providers in China allows identifying two types of international entrepreneurs: (1) “Fallen Icaruses”\, unable to incorporate and exhibit a global habitus and who fall back to the home field\, and (2) “Global Argonauts”\, incorporating and exhibiting a global habitus and who proceed with internationalization. Our findings show that social networks can be hostile to newcomers and that incumbents in those networks first assess newcomers’ “compatibility”. We posit that the success of international initiatives by entrepreneurs depends on their ability to cross and fit into different “fields”\, and to develop various forms of social relationships in those fields.
How does distance affect market entry mode choice? Evidence from French companies
Auteurs : Emna Moalla,Ulrike Mayrhofer
Revue : European Management Journal
Éditeur : Elsevier
Année : 2020

The objective of this article is to examine the relevant dimensions of distance for foreign market entry mode choice. Based on a sample of 203 interfirm linkages formed by French multinationals with partners across the world\, we analyze the impact of four dimensions of distance on the choice between cooperative alliances and mergers-acquisitions. The findings indicate that administrative and economic distance have a significant influence on market entry mode choice\, whereas the impact of cultural and geographic distance is not significant. They further highlight the important role of the host country's government effectiveness for market entry mode decisions.
The impact of environmentally related taxes and productive capacities on climate change: Insights from european economic area countries

Année : 2023

In a world increasingly threatened by climate change and its associated risks\, there's an urgent need to actively seek solutions for environmental protection and sustainable economic development. Central to this effort is understanding the role of environmental taxes and productive capacities in shaping environmental outcomes. Focusing on countries within the European Economic Area (EEA)\, this research uses advanced second-generation econometric techniques to examine this relationship. The use of cross-sectional autoregressive distributive lag (CS-ARDL) and dynamic common correlated effects (DCCE) models allows for a robust examination of panel data and provides reliable results. The results reveal an inverted U-shaped relationship\, or Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC)\, between GDP growth and environmental degradation in the EEA economies. Furthermore\, while our data reveal a significant negative correlation between environmental taxes and CO2 emissions\, we find that productive capacities have a more significant impact on reducing these emissions. These findings call for further research into the effectiveness of policies to support productive capacities in achieving environmental protection goals in the EEA.
Higher Education Teachers e-skills and the Innovation Process
Auteurs : Adel Ben Youssef,Hamida Ben Youssef,Mounir Dahmani

Année : 2013

he purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between the use of ICT\, the accumulation of e-skills and innovation capacities of teachers. A Web questionnaire was designed in order to examine the e-skills and the daily practices of vocational high-school teachers in Tunisia. The results and findings are based upon 288 HET respondents. A structural Equation model was developed in order to understand the main determinants of innovative pedagogical uses of ICT by HET. Two unexpected results were found. First\, gender differences in matter of innovative uses are not found in Tunisia. Female HET seem to use more innovatively ICT than male ones. Secondly\, we did not find a relationship between tenure or research activities of HET and their pedagogical innovative uses. However our model shows that Computer and Internet Skills\, Effective use of ICT and Facilitations conditions play a prominent role in the innovative pedagogical use of ICT by HET in Tunisia. Findings imply that the e-learning competencies of teachers in Tunisia must be strengthened in order to reach optimal use.

Notre recherche vise à explorer l’aspect psychologique de l’héritage de l’esclavage aux Antilles\, à travers ses contours narcissiques et ses résonances émotionnelles. Pour ce faire\, nous avons utilisé la méthode qualitative des entretiens qui vise à recueillir les discours et les représentations des descendants d’esclaves. Les entretiens se sont déroulés sur quatre îles des Petites Antilles. La collecte des données a été menée dans des espaces publics sous la forme d’une enquête micro-trottoir. Elle révèle que l’appréhension de l’histoire mobilise chez les Antillais des mécanismes identificatoires\, dans une dynamique de sauvegarde narcissique. Aussi\, cette recherche dévoile des émergences émotionnelles qui peuvent s’avérer perturbantes\, et menaçantes pour le lien social. Elles en appellent à la décharge des affects\, ou entraînent la mise en place de défenses pour tourner le dos au douloureux passé. Notre étude révèle qu’un travail d’élaboration psychique est nécessaire pour s’affranchir des émotions négatives que suscite l’héritage traumatique des Antillais\, qui s’enracine dans un crime contre l’humanité.,Our research aims to explore the psychological aspect of the legacy of slavery in the West Indies\, through its narcissistic contours and emotional resonances. To do this\, we used the qualitative interview method\, which aims to gather the discourses and representations of the descendants of slaves. The interviews took place on four islands in the Lesser Antilles. Data was collected in public spaces in the form of a micro-trottoir survey. It reveals that the apprehension of history mobilizes identification mechanisms for the West Indians\, in a dynamic of narcissistic safeguarding. This research also reveals emotional outbursts that can be disruptive and threaten social bonds. They call for the release of affects\, or lead to the implementation of defenses to turn one's back on the painful past. Our study reveals the need for psychic elaboration to free oneself from the negative emotions aroused by the West Indians' traumatic heritage\, which is rooted in a crime against humanity.

L'article pose le problème de l'évolution de la diversité culturelle à partir de la question de l'innovation scientifique et technique. Dans ses formes les plus apparentes la mondialisation génère une dynamique extraordinaire dont les résultats sont prodigieux\, cependant\, au regard du temps de l'humanité\, elle masque des tendances plus inquiétantes\, car les technologies contribuent inéluctablement à l'uniformisation des processus d'innovation\, par la sélection des plus performantes d'entre-elles et par l'écrasement des autres alternatives possibles. La diversité des civilisations comme autant de berceaux indispensables à la découverte\, l'invention\, la création\, tend à s'effacer.,The article formulates the problem of the evolution of cultural diversity on the basis of the question of scientific and technical innovation. In its most obvious forms globalization generates an extraordinary dynamic\, the results of which are prodigious. However\, considering humanity's existence\, globalization conceals more disturbing tendencies as technologies contribute inescapably to the standardization of innovation proceedings by selecting the most efficient among them and by overrunning the other possible alternatives. The diversity of civilizations as an essential source of discovery\, invention and creation tends to fade away.

Technology package designed around a web platform\, a digital nature guide and the presence of a naturalist guide\, the écoBalade intends to be a training vector service for transmissions and discovery of the fauna and flora commons and remarkable in a given territory. With the help of is a tool of naturalistic observations or its smartphone\, the user has the possibility to identify a species\, to score an observation and sharing his discoveries within a user community. Each new application leads to measurable effects for most a fairly normal and an expected manner. However\, users feedback on this service have led us to identify other functions that the “only” knowledge management of local biodiversity. Indeed\, intergenerational transmission of technologic knowledge\, culinary\, patrimonial and natural knowledge has been raised by the eco-players. The intermediations and collective co-construction of the equipment écoBalade assumes that the project is primarily an experimentation of creation and then an usage innovation. But in what écoBalade is a tool of intergenerational and patrimonial transmissions? The observation will initially focus on the assessment and management constraints and assimilation by the eco-players. We will use interviews and questionnaires on the new use of this new technology. We will question the subjects in the control group on the functionality and openness of the service itself.
A new patent processing suite for academic and research purposes
Auteurs : David Reymond,Luc Quoniam
Revue : World Patent Information
Année : 2016

Patent databases are a counterpart of a technical encyclopedia providing a valuable informational source from patent documents. Patents apply to a wide variety of uses\, and this is expanding. The increasing kinds of users of patent documents result in a lack of educational programs regarding this matter. This paper describes Patent2Net (P2N) a patentinformatic suite whose purpose is to fill the lack in the academic world (education and research) of a tool to use with students (STEM\, Masters\, PhD)\, by valuation services and for defining corpuses for research in general patent analysis\, specifically on textual content. P2N is a free open-source modular\, scalable\, customizable and derivable tool\, written in the python language. We present here the main functions of the tool and the technical aspects after discussing the skills to be reached by students for state of the art patent analysis.

Abstract Aims: As we have been working for almost twenty years on territorial intelligence at different scales\, subjects\, contents\, responsibilities and with stakeholders in charge of\, we need to discuss how such research fields\, Territorial Intelligence (TI) & Artificial Intelligence (AI) in appearance so distinct\, even separated without any connections\, could meet with each others in order to imagine space for both applications and may be cooperation between them. Study design: This specific research\, based on precedent researches\, aimed identifying how Territorial Intelligence (TI) & Artificial Intelligence (AI) in appearance so distinct\, even separated without any connections\, could meet with each others in order to imagine space for both applications and may be cooperation between them. Place and Duration of Study: University of Toulon\, International Institute of Territorial Intelligence (3IT)\, SITIV Syndicate (France) and College for Teaching and Education (ESPE) from between 2010 and 2016. Methodology: We begin to examine our paste\, published works\, extract propositions (totally or partially) from artificial intelligence authors we think they are able to include calibrated information as we suggested\, in association with precise territorial intelligence assumptions and for the use on organizing such meeting. Results: For all spatial functionality we are considering for our purpose\, we are positioning\, their content\, Territorial Intelligence Process\, Artificial Intelligence\, high Focus/low Focus spectrum. Conclusion: Along the paper we are displaying figures to pave the way of our discussion and\, finally\, we suggested through a table for each spatial functionality studied\, functionality title\, description\, T.I.P (territorial intelligence assumptions)\, A.I Focus.
