Authors: Al-Flehawee Maher , Al-Mayyahi Auday
Published: March 2022

Hybrid electric vehicles have received considerable attention because of their ability to improve fuel consumption compared to conventional vehicles. In this paper, a series-parallel hybrid electric vehicle is used because they combine the advantages of the other two configurations. In this paper, the control unit for a series-parallel hybrid electric vehicle is implemented using a Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) strategy. The NMPC strategy needs to create a vehicle energy management optimization problem, which consists of the cost function and its constraints. The cost function describes the required control objectives, which are to improve fuel consumption and obtain a good dynamic response to the required speed while maintaining a stable value of the state of charge (SOC) for batteries. While the cost function is subject to the physical constraints and the mathematical prediction model that evaluate the vehicle’s behavior based on the current vehicle measurements. The optimization problem is solved at each sampling step using the (SQP) algorithm to obtain the optimum operating points of the vehicle’s energy converters, which are represented by the torque of the vehicle components.

Forecasting systems play an important role in business and economics. In the planning of drug production at PT. Pratapa Nirmala is still semi-computerized, which is limited to recording using the Microsoft Excel program and has not used definite methods or tools, thus allowing for human errors and significant differences between forecasting and actual sales which will affect stock out and over-stock drug supplies. Forecasting is a calculation analysis technique that is carried out with qualitative and quantitative approaches to predict future events using data from the past. The method used is observation, interview, and research, and the type of research used is quantitative and qualitative with descriptive analysis. This system uses an object-oriented design method with UML (Unified Modeling Language). The programming language used is the PHP programming language with MySQL database and the forecasting method used is Single Exponential Smoothing by considering the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) value. After the calculation, obtained with an alpha value of 0.9, where the value of the Mean Absolute Percentage Error generated is 16%. and the form of the forecasting equation model is Ft = Ft-1 + a (At-1 – Ft-1). So this forecast is feasible and can be applied.

Potential market-stealing effect of FDI on state-owned enterprises: an empirical examination of the case of Vietnam
Authors: Tang Nghia Van , Cao Vinh Thi Hong , Nguyen Duy Hung , Schrader Paul
Published: March 2022

Despite significant contributions of foreign direct investment to the economies of host countries, market-stealing effect on the domestic enterprises could appear as international capital flow rises. Market-stealing effect could be negative to the domestic firms, including the state-owned enterprises (SOEs). For Vietnam, both foreign invested firms and SOEs are of interest to the government. Hence, the question whether the market-stealing effect on SOEs appears as FDI increases needs to be answered. This study provides insights into the market-stealing effect from the market share and labor productivity perspectives with the application of the random effects methods utilizing panel data of more than 4,000 observations of SOEs in Vietnam. The market-stealing effect on SOEs in Vietnam in both perspectives of market share and labor productivity is not found as FDI increases. The market-stealing effect from the aspect of market share is revealed in two important industries, which are agriculture, forestry and fishing, and manufacturing. From the aspect of labor productivity, there is no evidence of this effect for all five industries. As the types of SOEs are taken into consideration, the market-stealing effect regarding market size is higher for the SOEs with 100% of state capital than those with less state capital. From the labor productivity perspective, that effect does not exist.

Published: March 2022

BACKGROUND: Older toddlers period (children aged 6–23 months) is often referred to as the “golden age,” “critical period.” The World Bank (2006) refers to it as the “window of opportunity” because it is one of the periods of dealing with stunted and severe stunted the most effective. The immediate cause of stunting is a lack of food intake and infectious diseases. Therefore, maternal knowledge about nutrition influences behavior and attitudes in choosing food. Ignorance of foods with good nutrition will cause the selection of the wrong food, and poor nutrition will cause the child’s nutritional status to be poor and lacking. AIM: This study aimed to determine the relationship of nutritional knowledge to the nutritional status of the height/age index in older toddlers in Sumbang District, Banyumas Regency, Central Java. METHODS: This descriptive-analytic study was taken from secondary data using a cross-sectional design conducted on 736 mothers who have older toddlers in Sumbang District, Banyumas Regency, Central Java. RESULTS: There is no relationship between the nutritional status of children under 2 years old (H/A) with maternal age (p = 0.441), mother’s education (p = 0.232), and mother’s occupation (p = 0.284). There is a relationship between the nutritional status of children under 2 years (H/A) and mother’s knowledge (p = 0.002). CONCLUSION: This study aimed to determine the relationship of nutritional knowledge to the nutritional status of the height/age index in older toddlers in Sumbang District, Banyumas Regency, Central Java. There is no relationship between the nutritional status of children under 2 years old (H/A) with maternal age (p = 0.441), mother’s education (p = 0.232), and mother’s occupation (p = 0.284). There is a relationship between the nutritional status of children under 2 years (H/A) and mother’s knowledge (p = 0.002).

Published: March 2022

Introduction:
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on the dentistry industry from the initial lockdown in March 2020 to the present day, nearly one year later with dentists unable to practice during the initial lockdown, that is when revenue took the biggest hit.
The study aims to examine the impact of COVID-19 on dental practices during the pandemic in Bulgaria.
Material and methods: A specially developed questionnaire was distributed electronically among 138 dentists from all regions of Bulgaria. The collected primary statistical information was entered and processed with the statistical package SPSS Statistics 19.0
Results: Statistical analyzes of the questionnaire show that (62,32%±4,12) of dentists say COVID-19 made no impact on their decision to retire or continue practicing; 43% of respondents predict revenue or costs will be the biggest challenge facing their practice in 2021. Part of dentists (34.78 % ± 4,05) believe that COVID-19 allowed them to learn more about infection control. Most of the respondents (87.68% ± 2.79) agree their income was lower in April to September of 2020 compared to 2019. More than half of dentists (61.59 % ± 4.14) believe Covid 19 has not impacted the products or services they offer. The majority of the participants (84.78 % ± 3.05) did not perform non-emergency procedures during the pandemic.
Conclusion: Despite the numerous disadvantages caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, our survey shows dentists have found ways to adapt and succeed.

Behavioral Determinants of Healthy Aging: Good News for the Baby Boomer Generation
Authors: Hartman-Stein Paula , Potkanowicz Edward
Published: March 2022

The first of the Baby Boomer generation will officially enter the beginning of old age in 2011 by turning 65. Recent research findings suggest that if the members of this cohort group engage in certain healthy behaviors and thought patterns in their middle years, they will experience a vital, satisfying life in their 70s and beyond. This article reviews the existing literature, including the results of longitudinal studies showing variables that predicted successful aging. Focusing on a lifespan psychology perspective of aging, the authors provide behavioral recommendations for middle age individuals that are likely to prevent disease-related disability, cognitive impairment, and late life depression. These include regular physical exercise, engaging in cognitively stimulating activities, maintaining an optimistic mental outlook, and finding meaning in life. The good news for the Baby Boomers is that there is increasing evidence that their behavior at age 50 will impact how they feel at age 80.
Portrait de la professionnalisation en contextes francophones

L’alternance en formation constitue une configuration éducative et pédagogique dont le succès d’estime ne se dément pas, année après année. L’alternance en formation suscite l’espoir de trouver une pédagogie susceptible de renforcer les liens entre la formation et l’emploi. Mais elle peine à dessiner ses caractéristiques pédagogiques. Autrement dit, peu de recherches sont en mesure de démontrer la valeur ajoutée éducative de ce modèle de formation. Les différents protagonistes des formations par alternance expriment des difficultés à se saisir de cette configuration pédagogique pour accompagner les étudiants dans leurs apprentissages professionnels. Certes, des formations de formateurs et de tuteurs se mettent en place progressivement dans les universités. Mais quelles sont les finalités de ces formations ? Quels contenus et quelles compétences sont privilégiés et valorisés dans ces formations de formateurs et de tuteurs ? À partir d’une méta-analyse de publications issues de recherche sur la formation des acteurs de l’alternance, le présent chapitre propose de mettre en évidence les principales problématiques rencontrées par les formateurs et les tuteurs dans le pilotage des formations par alternance.

La recherche sur l’évaluation des stages en enseignement met en évidence un certain nombre de difficultés, et ce depuis de nombreuses années (André, 2013). Ces difficultés pouvant avoir un impact certain sur la professionnalisation des futurs enseignants, nous avons cherché à en contourner certaines par la mise en place d’échelles descriptives comme instrument de l’évaluation. La formulation et la mise en place de ces échelles ont mobilisé chercheurs, formateurs et formateurs de terrain (appelés ailleurs mentor, formateurs en établissement, praticiens formateurs ou enseignants associés). Cette contribution vise à décrire le chemin parcouru, dresser un bilan du processus entamé et mettre en discussion le processus en regard de la professionnalisation des enseignants, et pour laquelle la professionnalisation des formateurs de terrain nous paraît importante.

Ce chapitre présente les résultats d’une recherche menée en 2016 dans six pays francophones du Sud. Les entretiens individuels et de groupe conduits auprès de plus de 60 enseignants et cadres de l’enseignement primaire ont permis d’établir les besoins spécifiques de formation continue pour professionnaliser davantage la pratique de l’enseignement dans les prochaines années, au profit de la réussite scolaire et du progrès social. L’analyse des données a été faite plus spécifiquement à partir du concept de jugement professionnel. Les conditions favorables au développement de ce jugement ont pu être identifiées, notamment le besoin d’autonomie des enseignants, l’importance de l’accompagnement de leur réflexion sur leur action et l’amélioration des conditions matérielles d’enseignement et de formation en emploi. Ces résultats représentent une étape significative, commune aux pays partenaires, en route vers le développement d’une capacité d’autoformation des enseignants qui serait garante de leur développement continu et de l’évolution constante de leurs pratiques.
Celan, Rezzori, „Tschernopol“. Ein Dialog, der nie zustande kommen konnte
Authors: Corbea-Hoisie Andrei
Published: March 2022

On se propose dans cet article de reconstituer les circonstances de la rencontre virtuelle entre deux poètes originaires de Czernowitz, Paul Celan et Gregor von Rezzori, en prenant pour point de départ leur commune présence dans la revue Botteghe Oscure . Cette prise de connaissance réciproque fut suivie de l’exaspération que suscita chez Celan l’attribution du Prix Fontane à Rezzori pour son roman Ein Hermelin in Tschernopol . Ce faisant, on s’efforce de répondre aux questions qui, par delà les impressions initiales de Celan, se posent en relation avec les visions du monde différentes des deux hommes. On analyse surtout leur perception profondément différente de la « catastrophe historique » dont le poids sur leurs destins respectifs, bien que dissemblable, fut au même degré dévastateur. L’accent porte tout spécialement sur la prétendue incapacité de Rezzori à saisir dans toute son ampleur la conception celanienne de la Shoah comme churban .
Littératures en langues africaines
Authors: Tourneux Henry
Published: March 2022

Lorsque l’on parle de littérature – orale ou non – et de développement, on pense généralement à l’utilisation pragmatique que l’on pourrait en faire dans un contexte de pays « en développement ». Le pédagogue pense aux analyses de textes qu’il pourra faire porter sur des contes ; le grammairien pense aux exercices qu’il pourra rédiger à partir d’énoncés pris dans des textes. Le professeur de morale pense au parti qu’il pourra tirer des proverbes et des morales associées à certains contes, etc. Si tous ces usages sont légitimes, il ne faut cependant pas en rester là, au risque même de dégoûter les élèves de leur patrimoine. Cette littérature est un des lieux privilégiés de l’expression culturelle et elle doit être considérée à ce titre non pas comme une auxiliaire du développement, mais comme l’un de ses soubassements. Si la littérature orale est en train de disparaître sous sa forme classique, elle a pourtant été en partie sauvegardée par écrit et sur des bandes magnétiques. Cependant, elle n’est souvent pas accessible localement. D’où la nécessité de la mettre à disposition massivement sur des supports divers (livre classique, livre numérique au format e-pub pour tablettes et smartphones, format audio pour la radio, et audio-vidéo pour la télévision). Le Cameroun, comme la majeure partie de l’Afrique, est un pays multilingue. Il est donc important, lorsque l’on met en valeur un patrimoine particulier, de penser également à ceux qui n’y ont pas accès par la langue originale. Pour cela, le format éditorial adapté est indiscutablement le format langue africaine / français ou anglais. On pourrait aussi envisager de traduire des textes d’une langue africaine dans une autre langue africaine, cependant, on n’en a guère d’exemples à ce jour.

Reproduire le succès politique de la présidence française de la COP21 : la confiance comme phénomène fonctionnel et relationnel
Authors: Walker Hayley , Lambin Billie
Published: March 2022

Cet article possède deux objectifs. Premièrement, il entend expliquer le succès politique de la COP21. Ici, le succès politique est défini comme le fait de réaliser et d’atteindre, au sein d’un cycle de négociation, des objectifs fixés, et de le faire d'une manière qui dépasse les attentes politiques. Deuxièmement, après une analyse de l'interaction entre de multiples facteurs causaux au sein des négociations multilatérales, l'article se concentre sur une seule pièce du puzzle explicatif - la confiance des délégués dans la présidence française -, et présente ses effets majeurs. Cette recherche démontre que les présidences devraient non seulement prendre en compte les principes de légitimité procédurale (la transparence ou encore l'inclusivité) qui garantissent une participation équitable de tous les États, mais aussi les effets du travail quotidien des individus représentant ces États sur le processus de négociation. Les délégués font notamment davantage confiance à la présidence lorsqu'ils ont le sentiment que leurs points de vue ont été écoutés de manière sincère et respectueuse ; a contrario, la confiance est perdue lorsque les délégués sont pris par surprise et/ou lorsque la présidence force la progression du processus.
Le leadership éthique, une nécessité pour lutter contre la corruption
Authors: Bashir Mohsin , Hassan Shahidul
Published: March 2022

Dans le présent article, nous évaluons empiriquement le rôle du leadership éthique dans la réduction de la corruption. Nous vérifions également si l’efficacité du leadership éthique dans la maîtrise de la corruption dépend de la qualité du système de récompenses en place dans les organisations publiques. Nous nous intéressons en particulier à deux composantes connexes du système de récompenses : l’utilisation de récompenses fondées sur la performance et l’impartialité. À l’aide de données recueillies dans le cadre d’une enquête menée au Pakistan auprès de 741 employés en poste dans 154 organisations publiques et organisations à but non lucratif, nous constatons une corrélation négative entre le leadership éthique des managers et le signalement de la corruption. Nous observons également que l’utilisation de récompenses fondées sur la performance est associée à une incidence plus faible de la corruption et que la corrélation négative entre leadership éthique et corruption est plus importante lorsque les employés font état du faible niveau d’impartialité. Nous examinons les implications de ces résultats pour la recherche sur la lutte contre la corruption dans les organisations publiques ainsi que pour les stratégies y afférentes. Remarques à l’intention des praticiens Le leadership éthique des managers peut réduire la corruption dans les organisations publiques des pays en développement. Il s’avère particulièrement nécessaire dans les organisations qui n’ont pas encore mis en place un système de récompenses équitable. De plus, afin de diminuer les cas de comportement contraire à l’éthique et d’encourager le comportement éthique, les responsables des organisations publiques des pays en développement devraient diffuser des règles d’éthique bien précises, inciter leurs collaborateurs à prendre des décisions conformes à l’éthique et les tenir pour responsables des comportements contraires à l’éthique.
L’implication du personnel dans le secteur public administratif : exploration des leviers de la mobilisation au Cameroun
Authors: Tioumagneng André , Njifen Issofou
Published: March 2022

Dans nombre de pays en développement, la qualité des services dans la fonction publique demeure un idéal en dépit des efforts à implémenter la Nouvelle Gestion Publique. La démobilisation du personnel traverse les réflexions sur les causes du problème sans avoir pour autant, dans la plupart des contextes, des explications précises. L’article se propose d’identifier les leviers de mobilisation susceptibles d’assurer l’implication effective des agents chargés du service public administratif. Pour ce faire, une étude empirique est menée au Cameroun. L’analyse mobilise à la fois l’inférence statistique et l’analyse de contenu. Il en résulte que l’implication des agents publics est liée notamment à l’organisation du travail, aux pratiques de gestion des ressources humaines et à la reconnaissance du potentiel des agents par leur hiérarchie. Remarques à l’intention des praticiens La présente étude recèle des enjeux actuels importants. Pour tout praticien de la GRH, l’implication dans le métier est une arme compétitive et créatrice de valeur. Elle serait l’un des objectifs généraux que les pratiques de gestion du personnel doivent contribuer à atteindre. Pour un service public de qualité, l’implication du personnel mérite une attention particulière. L’étude révèle de nombreux leviers de mobilisation du personnel susceptibles de promouvoir la performance des administrations publiques, notamment dans les pays en développement.
House crickets (Othroptera: Gryllidae: Acheta domesticus) reared in small-scale laboratory conditions harbour limited viral flora
Authors: Cholleti H. , Vaga M. , Jansson A. , Blomström A.L. , Berg M.
Published: March 2022

Insects, such as crickets, are being used as a viable food source in many regions of the world, given their nutritional value for human and animal consumption. This study investigated the viral communities present in European house crickets and whether feed influences the composition of the crickets’ virome. The crickets were reared under environmentally controlled conditions and fed fresh red clover (fresh), red clover haylage (haylage), red clover hay (hay) or control feed. The viral metagenomic analysis of six replicates from each feed treatment showed that only a few reads were classified as viruses, mainly assigned to phages and insect-related viruses. A significant difference (P<0.001) was observed between the different treatments in regard to the number of viral reads. The highest number of viral reads was identified in the fresh treatment (2,568 reads), whereas the control treatment had the fewest viral reads (90). Phages were identified in all the treatments; however, they were clearly dominant in the fresh and hay feed treatments. A limited number of insect and plant viral reads from Xinmoviridae, Polydnaviridae, Metaviridae, unclassified and ‘other’ viruses were also found in all the feed treatments. The results from this study may indicate that the feed for the crickets determines the richness of the viral flora of crickets, but overall, very few viral reads were identified, making it hard to draw any conclusion regarding the impact of the feed on viral richness.

This research introduced small-scale chemistry practicum techniques on the concept of acid-base identification, determination of pH with indicators, and neutralization reactions with the concept of titration. This research aims to reveal teachers’ and students’ first experiences in small-scale chemistry practicum. This research is action research to introduce a small-scale practicum technique for the solution of minimizing chemical tools and materials, as well as the availability of space for school chemistry practicum. This study involved 26 teacher participants and 36 student participants. The data collected in the form of quantitative data related to teacher responses to small-scale chemistry practicum workshops and student responses to small-scale chemistry practicum in the pilot class. The instrument used is an activity response questionnaire. Qualitative data is collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The practicum involves qualitative observations and quantitative calculations. The qualitative aspect relates to the observation of color changes that occur in the mixture of solutions made from acid and alkaline solutions with a certain composition. Teachers got a lot of inspiration in terms of practicing chemistry with fewer material requirements, as well as modifying the tools used for laboratory activities. The tool and material box package illustrated to them that practicum activities do not have to be carried out in a laboratory room, but can also be practiced in conventional classrooms, even done independently by students at home. Students have a unique experience in the process of counting the number of droplets because it requires concentration and careful observation.
The Influence of Tattoos on Health Care Experiences
Authors: Kaufmann Lacee , Armstrong Myrna L.
Published: March 2022

Background

Tattoos are an artistic, visible reflection of an individual's personality and life. According to Goffman and subcultural identity theory, the population with tattoos wants to be different from mainstream society.

Method

A qualitative descriptive phenomenological research process was used.

Results

Twelve participants described deep personal identity connections to their large, visible tattoos. They experienced positive reactions (
n
= 2, 16%), no reaction/acknowledgment (
n
= 7, 58%), or negative reactions (
n
= 3, 25%) from health care providers.

Conclusion

Comments made by health care providers tend to be remembered regardless of the context and can contribute to health and care disparities. Participants who received negative reactions to their tattoos switched providers. Those who received no reactions could have felt insignificant. Ongoing culturally sensitive education is important. Tattoos can start meaningful conversations that allow health care providers to gain valuable insight.

Promoting Nurses' Self-Efficacy in Advanced Cardiac Life Support Through High-Fidelity Simulation
Authors: Al-Kalaldeh Mahmoud , Al-Olime Safa'a
Published: March 2022

Background

Self-efficacy in resuscitation is influenced by various educational models, including high-fidelity simulation (HFS).

Method

Sixty-two nurses who were enrolled in an Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) course using HFS were recruited for this pretest–posttest, quasi-experimental study. Self-efficacy was assessed three times—twice via the participants' self-report and once via the instructor's assessment—using the Resuscitation Self-Efficacy Scale (RSES).

Results

The four dimensions of self-efficacy—recognition, debriefing and recording, responding and rescuing, and reporting—improved after the HFS education (
t
= 4.89,
SE
= 1.84,
p
< .001, confidence interval [−12.7, −5.33]). The instructor's scoring was higher than the participants' scoring in two of the four dimensions. The score on the ACLS written examination was positively correlated with the posttest RSES score (
r
= 0.303,
p
= .017). Despite minimal variations between demographic subgroups, nurses who had never been involved in resuscitation exhibited a significant improvement in self-efficacy after the HFS ACLS education (
t
= 4.72,
SE
= 2.54,
p
< .001, confidence interval [−17.3, −6.7]).

Conclusion

Self-efficacy can be a core measurable outcome that gauges nurses' clinical competency concerning HFS education for ACLS.

Published: March 2022

In this work, we apply the reproducing kernel method to coupled system of second and fourth order boundary value problems. We construct a novel algorithm to acquire the numerical results of the nonlinear boundary-value problems. We also use the Legendre polynomials. Additionally, we discuss the convergence analysis and error estimates. We demonstrate the numerical simulations to prove the efficiency of the presented method.
Acyclic edge coloring of planar graphs
Authors: Bu Yuehua , Jia Qi , Zhu Hongguo , Zhu Junlei
Published: March 2022

An acyclic edge coloring of a graph $ G $ is a proper edge coloring such that no bichromatic cycles are produced. The acyclic chromatic index of $ G $, denoted by $ \chi^{'}_{a}(G) $, is the smallest integer $ k $ such that $ G $ is acyclically edge $ k $-colorable. In this paper, we consider the planar graphs without 3-cycles and intersecting 4-cycles, and prove that $ \chi^{'}_{a}(G)\leq\Delta(G)+1 $ if $ \Delta(G)\geq 8 $.
SGEResU-Net for brain tumor segmentation

Published: March 2022

The precise segmentation of tumor regions plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors. However, due to the variable location, size, and shape of brain tumors, the automatic segmentation of brain tumors is a relatively challenging application. Recently, U-Net related methods, which largely improve the segmentation accuracy of brain tumors, have become the mainstream of this task. Following merits of the 3D U-Net architecture, this work constructs a novel 3D U-Net model called SGEResU-Net to segment brain tumors. SGEResU-Net simultaneously embeds residual blocks and spatial group-wise enhance (SGE) attention blocks into a single 3D U-Net architecture, in which SGE attention blocks are employed to enhance the feature learning of semantic regions and reduce possible noise and interference with almost no extra parameters. Besides, the self-ensemble module is also utilized to improve the segmentation accuracy of brain tumors. Evaluation experiments on the Brain Tumor Segmentation (BraTS) Challenge 2020 and 2021 benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed SGEResU-Net for this medical application. Moreover, it achieves DSC values of 83.31, 91.64 and 86.85%, as well as Hausdorff distances (95%) of 19.278, 5.945 and 7.567 for the enhancing tumor, whole tumor, and tumor core on BraTS 2021 dataset, respectively.
Design of generalized fault diagnosis observer and active adaptive fault tolerant controller for aircraft control system
Authors: Sun Rong , Han Yuntao , Wang Yingying
Published: March 2022

This study aims to design a generalized fault diagnosis observer (GFDO) and an active fault tolerant control system (AFTCS) for external disturbances based on an aircraft control system and actuator faults. Unlike the traditional approach that assumes external disturbances are norm bounded, the Gronwall Lemma based on the external disturbances constraint condition is modelled to satisfy the system stability. Then, the GFDO is designed by two performance indices defined to simultaneously estimate system states and faults. In addition, the AFTCS is designed to obtain the desired performances in the fault case. When the fault is diagnosed by GFDO, the regular controller switches to AFTCS. Finally, an analysis of the performance of the proposed algorithm is discussed based on simulations of the F-18 aircraft control system, which illustrates the effectiveness and applicability of this method.
Études de philosophie « française »
Authors: Macherey Pierre
Published: March 2022

La philosophie française, sans guillemets, ça n’existe pas. Le présent ouvrage tente d’élucider les conditions dans lesquelles, dans la période post-révolutionnaire, l’investigation philosophique, directement investie dans les transformations de la société, a revêtu les formes singulières qui ont conduit à l’identifier comme « française ». Ce phénomène complexe est examiné à partir d’exemples empruntés aux principaux courants de pensée qui, de la Première République (Sieyès) à la Troisième (Barni), ont alimenté le débat d’idées au cours du xixe siècle, à savoir le conservatisme (Bonald, Maistre, Chateaubriand), le rationalisme (les Idéologues, Cousin, Renan) et le socialisme (l’école saint-simonienne, Proudhon). Mais en réfléchissant à la constitution de ces trois idéologies, on en vient à interroger la constitution du concept même d’« idéologie ». Et ce qui se découvre ainsi, c’est notre histoire, celle dont nous sommes d’autant plus tributaires que nous l’ignorons.
Spinoza après Bourdieu
Authors: Lantoine Jacques-Louis
Published: March 2022

Le paradoxe fondamental qui vient à la fois constituer et mettre en péril la politique, c’est qu’il n’y a pas d’autorité des institutions et des lois sans le soutien au moins tacite et spontané de la multitude, multitude dont il s’agit en même temps de reconnaître qu’elle est composée d’individus et de groupes sociaux qui désirent n’en faire qu’à leur tête. Ce paradoxe est souvent dénié par les philosophies politiques qui se contentent d’invoquer une légitimité idéale pour justifier une obéissance en droit. Les concepts de disposition et d’habitus, tels qu’ils sont théorisés par Pierre Bourdieu, permettent de comprendre à même la pratique comment s’établit, de fait, la domination d’un ordre.

Spinoza, tout en s’accordant sur des points fondamentaux avec le sociologue, insiste néanmoins sur la dimension passionnelle et donc inconstante des dispositions, et par là assume davantage encore le paradoxe. Un pouvoir n’est obéi que s’il sait se faire désirer, qu’il soit légitime ou non. C’est alors une conception de l’État et des institutions politiques tout à fait originale qu’élabore le Traité politique, où il s’agit moins de les fonder en légitimité que de les faire fonctionner malgré, et même par, les passions pourtant inconstantes et variées du vulgaire. Encore faut-il que cette domination s’exerce au profit de tous et de chacun : une Realpolitik, au sens de Pierre Bourdieu, est ainsi constituée par Spinoza, où le pouvoir n’est détenu par personne en particulier, mais dispose tous les citoyens à la concorde et à la paix, malgré eux mais, autant que possible, de bon gré.
