An integrated RFID–UWB method for indoor localization of materials in construction
Authors: Bardareh Hassan , Moselhi Osama
Published: July 2022

A considerable body of literature exists on automated object localization and tracking of construction operations. While GPS-based solutions have been widely investigated in many studies for outdoor tracking of these operations, indoor tracking proved to be more challenging. This paper focuses on indoor material localization and investigates the use of two remote sensing technologies—ultra-wideband and radio frequency identification—and the integrated use of these technologies to leverage the benefits of each for a cost-effective and practical solution for location identification of materials on site. The developed method is based on an experimental study conducted in two phases. In the first phase, experiments are designed and performed to evaluate the accuracy of ultra-wideband for localization, as well as to determine the optimal output power for a hand-held radio frequency identification reader. The optimal power is identified by evaluating the range measurement accuracy and maximum reading range of the hand-held radio frequency identification reader. In the second phase, the integrated use of radio frequency identification device and ultra-wideband for object localization is studied, and an improved trilateration technique is developed. The results of the experiments show an absolute error of 0.52 m and 1.15 m for 2D and 3D localization, respectively. Accordingly, the integration of these two technologies eliminates the need for using a large number of radio frequency identification reference tags on site for indoor material localization. The method is expected to enhance automated material tracking on construction sites by improving the localization accuracy and providing a straightforward data acquisition protocol. The analysis of experimental data captured in a lab setting is also presented, demonstrating the advantages of the proposed method.

Published: July 2022

Much research is conducted on the importance of success factors. This study contributes to the body of knowledge by using artificial intelligence (AI), specifically machine learning (ML), to analyse success factors through data from construction projects. Previously conducted studies have explored the use of AI to predict project success and identify important success factors in projects; however, to the extent of the authors’ knowledge, no studies have implemented the same method as this study. This study conducts quantitative analysis on a sample of 160 Norwegian construction projects, with data obtained from a detailed questionnaire delivered to relevant project team members. The method utilises ML through a Random Forest Classifier (RFC). The findings obtained from the analysis show that it is possible to use AI and ML on a limited dataset. Furthermore, the findings show that it is possible to identify the most important success factors for the projects in question with the developed model. The findings suggest that a group of selected processes is more important than others to achieve success. The identified success factors support the theoretically acknowledged importance of thorough and early planning and analysis, complexity throughout the project, leadership involvement, and processes supporting project success.
The Dynamics of Foreign Portfolio Investment and Exchange Rates: An Interconnection Approach in ASEAN
Authors: Syarifuddin Ferry
Published: July 2022

This paper examines the spatial dependence of foreign portfolio investment (FPI) inflows among ASEAN countries in 2002Q1-2018Q4 utilizing the spatial econometric approach. This paper adds clarity to the identification of the true nature of portfolio investment performances. I show a competitive relationship among ASEAN countries, indicating crowding out of FPI in the host country is most likely to occur when the neighboring country is experiencing a crowding out. I also show that exchange rate volatility and changes, both in the host country and neighboring country, do not significantly affect FPI in the host country. Furthermore, I find that, aside from macroeconomic factors of the host country, foreign investors also consider the macroeconomic conditions in the neighboring country, suggesting the existence of spatial dependency. Robustness checks are conducted to confirm the main findings of this study.
Invisibility cloaks, prisons, and a pandemic: Did COVID-19 render the prison invisibility cloak ineffective?
Authors:   , Weger Jennifer
Published: July 2022

This thesis acknowledges the importance of examining news media representation of prisons, and more specifically, news media representation of Canadian prisons during the COVID-19 pandemic. A thematic qualitative and quantitative content analysis of news coverage of prison before and during the COVID-19 pandemic was undertaken to analyze how news media organizations communicate meanings and messages about punishment and prison to the general public. Utilizing a social constructionist approach, I examined how the news media frames coverage of correctional institutions, consequently shaping public understanding of punishment and prison which may impact correctional policy. This thesis addressed the following questions: 1) Was there an increase in news media coverage of prison during the COVID-19 pandemic? Has coverage during the COVID-19 pandemic made the prison more visible? 2) Does the news media coverage of correctional institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic reinforce traditional myths and stereotypes surrounding punishment and prison? Or challenge them? 3) Is the news media representation of correctional institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic consistent with coverage of traditional prison newsworthy items which focus on discrete incidents? Or does the coverage reflect newer, broader systemic newsworthy issues, namely, reform? The findings demonstrate that the COVID-19 pandemic did not quantitatively bring more visibility to prisons as assessed by the amount of news items, however, qualitatively it appears COVID-19 brought more visibility to prison issues. While some traditional prison stereotypes are still present in the news media and were reinforced during the pandemic, other myths and stereotypes were challenged, or were rare. Lastly, the results demonstrate that although traditional prison newsworthy items were still often reported in the news, discussions of prison reform were prevalent in the sample.
Business portfolio Optimization as a Guarantee Of The Company’s Competitiveness
Authors: Ramaz Margishvili Ramaz Margishvili
Published: July 2022

In the article - "Business Portfolio Optimization as a Guarantee of the Company's Competitiveness" – it is defined the company's business portfolio as a set of business cases that the company has decided to implement, and the list of which is even included in its articles of association.
The company's business portfolio can be single-profile or multi-profile. The single-profile company carries out only one business, while a multi-profile, is a diversified, multi-business case. The company can be diversified in the same field as well as in other fields. The example of a single-profile company in the field of healthcare is the clinic "Akhali Mzera", and an example of a multi-profile company is the clinic – “Aversi.”
According to the number of business cases, a single-profile business portfolio is called a "scarce" portfolio, while a multi-profile business portfolio is called a "rich" business portfolio. The author of the article warns companies not to waste their portfolio enrichment. If necessary, diversify only in related fields, and that too, after diligent and objective study of their capabilities.
Keywords: Business portfolio; "Scarce" business portfolio; "Rich" business portfolio; Single-profile company; Multi-profile company.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the determinants of bank soundness on stock prices and determine the position of the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR), whether it functions as a mediator in the influence of bank soundness on stock prices or not. The determinants of bank soundness which are independent variables in this study are Loan To Deposit Ratio (LDR), Return On Assets (ROA), and Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR). Meanwhile, Stock Price is the dependent variable and the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) is the intervening variable. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach. The type of data used is secondary data in the form of financial statements of banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The population in this research were 46 banking companies with a sampling method using purposive sampling, in order to obtain a sample of 11 banking companies. This research was analyzed using the Eviews 9.0 . programThe results of this research indicate that partially and simultaneously Loan To Deposit Ratio (LDR), Return On Assets (ROA), and Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) have no significant effect on the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR). In contrast to the effect on stock prices, partially Return On Assets (ROA), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), and Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) have a significant effect except Loan To Deposit Ratio (LDR). Simultaneously, all independent variables have a significant effect on stock prices. Based on the results of this research, the results of path analysis are obtained, that the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) is not a mediator in the influence of determinants of bank soundness on stock prices.

Published: July 2022

Musculoskeletal disorders are one of the most frequent causes of disability, handicap and demand for medical attention. Knowledge of musculoskeletal medicine (MSM) should be essential for most specialties. Unfortunately, many medical interns (MIR) admit to a lack of confidence and competence in this area. The aim of this paper is to perform a narrative review of the level of knowledge and skills acquired in musculoskeletal pathology of medical graduates in different countries. The data show that the teaching of MSM is deficient during the academic period. It’s essential to plan training actions that lead to an increase in knowledge and skills in this pathology in medical students. Optimisation of pregraduate teaching in MME will help to improve healthcare, make the system more agile, and allow better screening of specialised referrals.

Published: July 2022

A fatigue fracture, also known as a stress fracture of the femoral neck, is an uncommon type of fracture that happens when a patient engages in strenuous physical activity or overuse. This case involves a 31-year-old woman who consults the hospital on several occasions with creeping pain in her groin and inner thigh. Following normal X-rays and the
absence of clinical improvement, an MRI and a fresh X-ray were conducted, revealing a loss of continuity of the cortical bone of the femur's neck, which was classified as a stress fracture. The most common consequence of this type of fracture is femoral head necrosis due to delayed diagnosis. As a result, it's critical to get a diagnosis as soon as possible.

The Cult and Images of Saint Rose of Lima in Lithuania
Authors: Janonienė Rūta
Published: July 2022

Isabel Flores de Oliva (1586–1617), generally known as Saint Rose of Mary or Saint Rose of Lima, became the first and, until today, the most venerated Catholic saint of Latin America. Almost immediately after her death, this Dominican of the Third Order, who died young and won fame for her highly ascetic life, various virtues and immovable faith, developed a cult following in Peru. Soon enough the cult had spread across South America and Europe. The topic of Saint Rose of Lima has been addressed in a great many publications that appeared in various (primarily Spanish-speaking) countries, but in Lithuania, the devotion to and images of this saint have not received specific research attention. By referring to the published sources and manuscripts, as well as the surviving ecclesiastical artworks, the author of this paper aims to discuss in more detail how information about the life and personality of Saint Rose of Lima was disseminated in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, what information about Latin America, its culture and people was conveyed in these sources, whether it was reflected in the icono- graphy of the saint, and if so, how.
Modeling a multiple-chain emeraldine gas sensor for NH3 and NO2 detection
Authors: Sustkova Hana , Voves Jan
Published: July 2022

This paper describes atomistic device models of a multiple-chain polyaniline (PANI) gas sensing component, utilizing the non-equilibrium Green’s functions formalism. The numerical results are compared with experimental data of ammonia and nitrogen dioxide detection. Multiple molecules of PANI in the form of emeraldine salt were studied with more than one absorbed molecule of ammonia or nitrogen dioxide. From the I–V characteristics of the system with and without adsorbed gas molecules for gas concentrations of 3, 6, 9, and 12 ppm, the effective resistance changes, (R − R0)/R0, were obtained and compared with experimental results. A good agreement with the measured values was obtained. In summary, PANI as emeraldine salt was numerically modeled for several adsorbed gas concentrations, several gas configurations, and different PANI molecule positions, including carrier hopping between them. The results are comparable to the experiment and show good properties for the application as gas sensor device for NH3 detection and rather good properties for NO2 detection.
Liber Hrabani De computo. Die komputistische Schrift von Rabanus Maurus über die Osterfestberechnung. Eine didaktische Einführung in die mittelalterliche Osterfestberechnung ins Deutsche übersetzt und eingeleitet von Franziska Geis
Authors: Geis Franziska
Published: July 2022

Die Komputistik als Wissenschaft der Bestimmung des Ostersonntags im Kalenderjahr war eines der zentralen Gebiete der Mathematik im christlichen Mittelalter. Das Konzil von Nicäa legte im Jahr 325 n. Chr. fest, dass das Osterfest immer am ersten Sonntag nach dem ersten Vollmond nach der am 21. März stattfindenden Frühlings-Tag-Nacht-Gleiche gefeiert werden soll. Die kanonischen Grundlagen der Komputistik lieferten vor allem Dionysius Exiguus (470-540) und Beda Venerabilis (672-735). Rabanus Maurus (780-856), gebürtiger Mainzer und späterer Erzbischof, verfasste 820 in seiner Zeit an der Klosterschule Fulda die komputistische Schrift De computo. Die Forschung behandelte das Werk lange Zeit als Abschrieb des bekannten De temporum ratione von Beda Venerabilis aus dem Jahre 725. Anders als seine Vorgänger erschuf Rabanus Maurus ein didaktisch durchkomponiertes Werk in Form eines fiktiven Schüler-Lehrer-Dialogs, an den er seine Erklärungen anschloss. Damit ermöglicht er unabhängig vom bisherigen Kenntnisstand die finale rechnerische Bestimmung des Ostersonntages. Er durchschreitet hierfür die Gebiete der Arithmetik, der Zeit und ihrer Einteilung, des Julianischen Kalenders sowie der Astronomie, ehe abschließend die Osterfestberechnung auf Grundlage der behandelten Themen im Detail erläutert wird, sodass keine Fragen mehr offenbleiben. Das vorliegende Buch liefert erstmals eine vollständige deutsche Übersetzung sowie eine ausführliche Analyse der behandelten Themen von De computo. Neben der Analyse der Schrift und der deutschen Übersetzung ermöglicht es eine Einbettung der Komputistik in die moderne Algebra inklusive Programmierung des Rabanischen Vorgehens in Python sowie einen Exkurs zur Gaußschen Osterformel aus dem Jahr 1800.
Four- and eight-membered structures with a rhombus in the center in the geometric ornaments of Podillya embroidery
Authors: Prychepii Yevhen
Published: July 2022

The subject of research is the structure of geometric ornaments, in the center of which there is a rhombus, and on the periphery there are eight or four symbols. (figure 7, 8, 14). It is stated in this article that these structures symbolise the Cosmos of the ancient people: rhombus in the centre of structure denotes the dungeon and four (eight) symbols on the periphery denote a certain sphere of life.
Structures with four symbols on the periphery, which are more common in ornaments, denote the four goddesses. The principles of constitution of these goddesses are considered. Their images are formed from two rhombuses-a common rhombus, which denotes the dungeon (or vulva of the goddess), and a separate rhombus-head. The rhombus and rhombuses are connected by symbols, which are popularly called "ram horns" and "hearts". The author identifies them as the "hands" of the goddess and believes that they are used to form the "poses" of the goddesses.
Three ornamental types of goddesses with different poses have been identified: the goddess in the "hands on hips" pose, the goddess in the "oranta" pose, and the goddess with hands in the shape of a "heart". The samples of ornaments, which are inherent in these poses, are considered. The heart-shaped goddess is identified as the vulva goddess, the hands-on-hips goddess as the head goddess, and the oranta goddess as the Great Goddess. It is argued that the study of the "poses" (hand shapes) of conventional figurines of goddesses can open up a new perspective in understanding the semantics of ornaments.

Thethree sources of strength for sustainability are the environment, economy, andsociety, all of which must be altered in the identical path. Individuals forgotto give priority to the environment throughout monetary development andprogress, resulting in global temperature change and climatic change all overthe world. While debating, environmental issues is not the main topic ofdiscussion at the moment, making progress toward environmental friendliness andobtaining ecosystem-friendly practices in all areas is critical. Green Bankingwas born out of the banking industry's concern for the environment. GreenBanking operations have been carried out by banks in India with the goal ofpromoting environmental sustainability and protecting the environment forfuture generations. Like a coin, everything has two sides, and this researchtries to uncover the two sides of the Green Banking idea among bank clients.The hazy side of Green Banking must be identified at the appropriate moment sothat Green Banking practices benefit the three sources of strength for sustainability.

Exact Analytical Solutions in Inhomogeneous Magnetic Fields for Linear Asteroseismic Waves
Authors: Tripathi B. , Mitra Dhrubaditya
Published: July 2022

We solve for waves in an isothermal, stratified medium with a magnetic field that points along a direction perpendicular to that of gravity and varies exponentially in the direction of gravity. We find exact analytical solutions for two different cases: (a) waves propagating along the direction of the magnetic field and (b) waves propagating along the direction of the gravity. In each case, we find solutions in terms of either the hypergeometric functions or their confluent cousins. We solve the resultant transcendental dispersion relation numerically. The eigenfrequencies decrease with increasing degree of the spatial inhomogeneity of the magnetic field. Further, the nodes of the eigenfunctions leak toward regions of lower Alfvén wave speed due to softened wave-reflection in such regions. Such changes in the dispersion relation and the mode structures may allow the detection of magnetic fields buried in the stellar interior.
New report and range extension of smallmouth flounder, Etropus microstomus (Actinopterygii: Carangiformes: Cyclopsettidae), in the Gulf of Mexico
Authors: Vega-Cendejas M. Eugenia , Hernández de Santillana J. Mirella , Chi-Espínola Ariel A.
Published: July 2022

The smallmouth flounder, Etropus microstomus (Gill, 1864), is a species of benthic habits, associated with soft sandy bottoms, and distributed from Canada to the New Orleans coasts, and with specific reports in Corpus Christi, TX, USA. No records have been available from the Mexican coast, however. In the presently reported study, the first finding of this species, in three proximate localities, is described from the Mexican coast. This record constitutes a considerable expansion range in the Gulf of Mexico. Ten specimens were identified through traditional taxonomic characters, together with a CO1 genetic sequence. The presence of this species in the Mexican coastal zone may be due to the dissemination of ichthyoplankton in the ballast water of commercial ships or to the ocean currents along the coasts of the Gulf of Mexico.

The length–weight (LWRs) and length–length (LLRs) relations were estimated for 16 fish species obtained from Jiaxing section of the Beijing–Hangzhou Grand Canal, China. One species represented Engraulidae: Coilia nasus Temminck et Schlegel, 1846; 11 species Cyprinidae: Hypophthalmichthys molitrix (Valenciennes, 1844); Hypophthalmichthys nobilis (Richardson, 1845); Chanodichthys erythropterus (Basilewsky, 1855); Chanodichthys mongolicus (Basilewsky, 1855); Culter alburnus Basilewsky, 1855; Chanodichthys dabryi (Bleeker, 1871); Pseudobrama simoni (Bleeker, 1864); Hemiculter leucisculus (Basilewsky, 1855); Megalobrama terminalis (Richardson, 1846); Carassius auratus (Linnaeus, 1758); Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus, 1758; one species Bagridae: Tachysurus fulvidraco (Richardson, 1846); two species Odontobutidae: Odontobutis potamophilus (Günther, 1861); Micropercops swinhonis (Günther, 1873); and one species Osphronemidae: Macropodus ocellatus Cantor, 1842. Fishes were collected using multipanel nylon gillnets with mesh sizes of 1–8 cm from November 2020 through August 2021. All fishes were measured for length (total length, TL; standard length, SL) to the nearest 0.1 cm and weight (W) to the nearest 0.1 g. The coefficients of determination R2 of LWRs and LLRs were all over 0.950, and the 16 values of LWR parameter b were estimated from 2.505 to 3.364. Our study provides new information on LWRs for 2 species and LLRs for 7 species, as well as a new maximum total length recorded for 3 species for FishBase. This study would allow for the convenience of the conversion of TL–W and SL–TL in fish stock assessment and is expected to provide a useful baseline for further studies of population parameters to improve management decisions.

At present, 45 Somoleptus species are known from the Neotropical region. Among these, 28 species are newly described here, whereas 18 were described in the past. The new species are: S. admirabilis spec. nov., S. andersoni spec. nov., S. ashei spec. nov., S. beniensis spec. nov., S. brevipennis spec. nov., S. breviusculus spec. nov., S. brooksi spec. nov., S. brunneus spec. nov., S. curtipennis spec. nov., S. curtulus spec. nov., S. elongatulus spec. nov., S. gigas spec. nov., S. grandiconus spec. nov., S. humicola spec. nov., S. longiceps spec. nov., S. loretensis spec. nov., S. maximus spec. nov., S. melanarius spec. nov., S. mexicanus spec. nov., S. montanus spec. nov., S. oculatus spec. nov., S. ovatus spec. nov., S. pecki spec. nov., S. peruanus spec. nov., S. recurvatus spec. nov., S. struyvei spec. nov., S. triangulus spec. nov., S. tschirnhausi spec. nov. Four species are transferred from the genus Lithocharodes. These are S. cavicola (Blackwelder, 1943) comb. nov., S. strigulata (Blackwelder 1943) comb. nov., S. longicollis (LeConte, 1863) comb. nov., and S. subtilis (Erichson, 1839) comb. nov. Somoleptus dichiformis Bernhauer, 1910 could not be assigned to either Lithocharodes or Somoleptus. Thus, this species must be treated as species incertae sedis. Two species groups could be differentiated due to the structure of the parameres and the aedeagal cones; one mainly occurs in South America, the second in Central America.

2. La théorie du chômage de Jacques Rueff. Traitement statistique et méthodologie scientifique
Authors: Daou Marie
Published: July 2022

Dans son ouvrage Des sciences physiques aux sciences morales (1922), Rueff préconise la méthode « scientifique » (empruntée à la science physique) et qui, appliquée à l’économie politique, permettrait de renforcer son caractère rationnel tout en accordant une place particulière à l’observation. Il faut attendre sa théorie du chômage pour en avoir l’illustration la plus significative où, à partir de séries statistiques, Rueff souligne l’existence, depuis 1921, d’un chômage permanent en Angleterre. De ce fait, il met en évidence l’existence d’une relation entre le taux de chômage et le taux de salaire réel, qu’il cherche alors à expliquer afin d’établir les causes et construire la théorie du phénomène.

Tous les outils des politiques publiques destinées à favoriser la transition écologique présentent des effets distributifs, c’est-à-dire qu’ils ne touchent pas de la même manière les groupes sociaux, en particulier les riches et les pauvres. Cet article étudie les causes de ces effets distributifs. La distinction la plus pertinente n’est pas entre outils économiques et outils réglementaires mais entre ceux qui ciblent les biens et services nouvellement mis sur le marché et ceux qui ciblent l’ensemble des biens et services existants ; les seconds présentent un effet distributif nettement plus marqué. Neutraliser ces effets nécessite des études fines prenant en compte non seulement le revenu des ménages mais également tout un ensemble de caractéristiques socio-économiques.
Réduire les inégalités sociospatiales par une approche multisectorielle de la précarité énergétique dans l’action publique locale
Authors: Meillerand Marie-Clotilde , Nicolas Jean-Pierre
Published: July 2022

Pour illustrer le rôle des acteurs de l’urbanisme et de l’aménagement dans la réduction des inégalités sociospatiales liées à la transition énergétique, nous proposons d’explorer l’exemple de la double précarité énergétique croisant les enjeux de logement et de mobilité quotidienne. Depuis le début des années 2010, notamment à la suite du Grenelle de l’environnement, les politiques territoriales ont entamé des réflexions en termes de planification pour endiguer ce phénomène, et les acteurs des territoires ont expérimenté et testé des outils pour gérer l’urgence des situations des ménages les plus en difficulté, touchés par une spirale impliquant logement, santé, mobilité, accès à l’emploi et exclusion sociale. L’article prend appui sur une recherche menée dans six territoires de la Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.

Identifier les jeunes isolés étrangers depuis 1945
Authors: Long Julien
Published: July 2022

Loin d’être un phénomène nouveau, la migration des jeunes venus d’ailleurs sans leur famille fait depuis les années 1990 l’objet d’une politisation accrue. Cependant, l’analyse du processus de catégorisation des mineurs isolés étrangers depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale est révélatrice de l’emprise des logiques politiques, héritées de l’époque coloniale et de la guerre froide, qui sous-tendent aujourd’hui encore la compréhension de la migration juvénile par les institutions. S’observe ainsi une continuité dans les pratiques d’identification et de prise en charge de l’enfance en danger, entre logique de police et raison humanitaire.
En Italie, solidarité pour un passage à l’âge adulte
Authors: Granata Anna
Published: July 2022

Le soutien à l’autonomie des mineurs isolés étrangers constitue un angle mort du système d’accueil mis en place en Italie. La conception même de ce qu’est ou devrait être la protection de l’enfance étrangère en danger et les logiques d’assistanat et d’infantilisation qui la sous-tendent concourent à leur isolement, sinon à leur mise à l’écart. En Lombardie, une expérience originale d’accueil et d’accompagnement montre toute l’importance et les enjeux de l’émancipation de ces jeunes adultes en devenir.
MIE en Seine-Saint-Denis : histoire d’une catégorie
Authors: Protar Simon , Zougbédé Émeline
Published: July 2022

La prise en charge des personnes étrangères mineures et isolées en Seine-Saint-Denis, d’abord guidée par l’impératif de protection de l’enfance en danger, s’est réorganisée autour d’un traitement différentiel fondé sur l’extranéité. L’analyse des archives départementales des services de l’aide sociale, réalisée dans le cadre du projet MINA 93 1 , restitue ce processus interne. Opposé à ce tournant, qui s’imposera comme un modèle dans nombre de départements, le Gisti a souvent dénoncé la dégradation des pratiques du 93, en particulier lorsqu’en 2011 2 , son président a choisi de laisser pendant des mois des enfants à la rue pour obtenir une aide de l’État.
Les Roses d’Acier : précaires, stigmatisées et engagées
Authors: Le Bail Hélène
Published: July 2022

Réunissant des migrantes chinoises travailleuses du sexe, le collectif Les Roses d’Acier se mobilise depuis 2014 contre les arrestations policières, les lois de pénalisation de la prostitution et en faveur d’actions communautaires visant à réduire les risques de violence et d’isolement. À travers cette mobilisation, ces femmes s’entraident, affirment la complexité de leurs parcours de vie au-delà du seul travail du sexe et font entendre une voix qui leur est propre.
Vice-consuls et négociants à Alexandrette : enjeux stratégiques et identitaires (1860-1945)
Authors: Flateau Cosima
Published: July 2022

Alexandrette, petite échelle méditerranéenne de l’Empire ottoman, pourtant éclipsée par des rivales plus importantes (Smyrne, Le Caire, Istanbul), est, à la fin du xix e  siècle, une porte d’entrée et de sortie importante du commerce de l’Empire. Débouché des productions syriennes, irakiennes et anatoliennes vers l’Égypte, l’Europe et les États-Unis, elle est aussi une porte d’entrée majeure des produits manufacturés importés. Aussi Français, Britanniques, Italiens, Allemands se préoccupent-ils d’y intensifier leurs relations économiques en profitant du « décloisonnement du monde » qui s’opère par la voie maritime, et d’y défendre leurs nationaux et leurs protégés. Sur place, leurs intérêts sont incarnés et défendus par une communauté levantine composée de quelques familles d’origine européenne, qui détiennent les vice-consulats de la ville et ont un quasi-monopole sur l’activité de représentation maritime des grandes compagnies desservant le port. Grâce à leur identité à cheval sur l’Europe et l’Empire ottoman, ils défendent les intérêts des puissances européennes tout en n’oubliant jamais leurs propres affaires commerciales ou de famille. Leur histoire permet de saisir les intérêts stratégiques et identitaires que concentre Alexandrette pour les États de la fin du xix e  siècle à celle de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
Léopold II, roi des Belges et souverain du Congo : une figure historique confrontée aux mythes mémoriels
Authors: De Wilde d'Estmael Tanguy
Published: July 2022

Roi des Belges (1865-1909) et souverain de l’État indépendant du Congo (1885-1908), Léopold II a marqué la Belgique de son empreinte et forgé l’intérêt du pays pour l’Afrique centrale. Fondateur de l’assise territoriale de l’actuelle République démocratique du Congo, il a suscité après sa mort une controverse où s’entremêlent une légende dorée et une légende sombre, en raison de la violence qui a caractérisé l’entreprise coloniale. L’objectif de cet article est de resituer le personnage dans son contexte géopolitique du xix e  siècle et dans son action de double chef d’État, à la fois en Belgique et au Congo. Les représentations contemporaines dont Léopold II fait l’objet, notamment dans les arts, sont également passées en revue pour indiquer un écart grandissant entre l’Histoire et la mémoire.
Le bureau d’aide militaire à l’armée togolaise. Genèse, composition, missions, scandales
Authors: Cherbonnier Pauline
Published: July 2022

En 1960, quand le Togo accède à l’indépendance, il doit construire son pouvoir militaire. La France continue d’assurer la protection des frontières de la République togolaise, mais ne peut conserver le pouvoir régalien de la défense de l’ancien territoire qui était sous tutelle. Cependant, comme dans d’autres anciennes colonies africaines, elle cherche à conserver un pied dans son « pré-carré », et ne peut envisager de laisser ses anciens territoires construire seuls leur force militaire. Se met donc en place, au cas par cas, une politique d’assistance militaire technique au sein de celle, plus ample, de Coopération. Les bureaux d’aide militaire font pleinement partie de cette politique de soutien à la construction d’un pouvoir militaire national.
La Basse-Normandie et la Norvège : échecs et réussites d’une diplomatie régionale (1979-2015)
Authors: Rouffia Anna
Published: July 2022

La région normande a été créée en 911 par le traité de Saint-Clair-sur-Epte qui a donné au chef scandinave Rollon le vaste territoire entre la Seine et la mer du Nord. Depuis cette date, le passé nordique de la Normandie a été mythifié et célébré notamment par le mouvement régionaliste. À la fin des années 1970, les liens qui unissent la Normandie et la Scandinavie servent de prétexte à la mise en place de nouvelles formes de coopération, cette fois universitaires, puis culturelles et enfin économiques. La région de Basse-Normandie va alors essayer de mener une diplomatie régionale parfois avec l’appui du Quai d’Orsay, parfois contre sa volonté et sans son aide. Ce travail de recherche a pour but de savoir si, dans un État centralisé comme la France, une région, qui en principe ne dispose pas d’autonomie sur le plan diplomatique, peut néanmoins mettre en place avec succès de réelles pratiques en la matière.
