Les enjeux de la régulation sectorielle
Authors: Chagny Odile
Published: March 2020

Les plateformes numériques ont contribué, au travers de solutions technologiques nouvelles, à bouleverser les conditions de concurrence dans le transport individuel de personnes en milieu urbain. Après avoir rappelé les fondements théoriques et le contexte historique de la régulation de ce secteur, l’article examine les principales caractéristiques de cette régulation sectorielle dans les pays étudiés avant l’arrivée des plateformes, puis les stratégies déployées par ces dernières pour pénétrer le marché. Il met ensuite en évidence le spectre des réponses apportées par chaque pays en matière de régulation sectorielle, qui va de la dérégulation à un pôle à la résistance de la régulation à l’autre pôle. Il s’attache enfin à en tirer des éléments de conclusion à destination des acteurs sociaux.
Le modèle d’affaires d’Uber : un avenir incertain
Authors: Sauviat Catherine
Published: March 2020

Le modèle d’affaires d’Uber repose sur des fondamentaux économiques défaillants, la plateforme de VTC ne dégageant pas un chiffre d’affaires suffisant pour couvrir ses coûts d’exploitation, sur des effets de réseaux limités et sur le risque de voir requalifier ses chauffeurs, de travailleurs indépendants en salariés. Son développement rapide n’a été possible que grâce au soutien d’investisseurs financiers, un soutien qui n’est cependant pas infaillible et durable éternellement.
La déréglementation du secteur des taxis au Québec : une négociation entre l’État et Uber
Authors: Coiquaud Urwana , Morissette Lucie
Published: March 2020

Comment, à la suite de l’arrivée d’Uber, le secteur du transport de personnes par taxi au Québec, autrefois largement encadré par la loi, a-t-il été déréglementé en 2019 ? Voici la question à laquelle répond cet article qui expose les acteurs et les mécanismes impliqués, dont le recours à l’expérimentation réglementaire.
Uber et Cabify, opérateurs de plateformes numériques ou entreprises de transport avec chauffeur ?
Authors: Trillo Francisco
Published: March 2020

L’Espagne, à la suite des conflits entre taxis et VTC provoqués par le lancement d’UberPop en 2014, est le pays qui a rendu possible l’arrêt prononcé par la Cour de justice de l’Union européenne en décembre 2017, statuant que l’activité d’Uber relevait d’une prestation de service de transport et non d’intermédiation ou d’information. La question de la nature de la relation contractuelle avec ses chauffeurs, qui lui est intimement liée, n’a en revanche pas été tranchée même si la probabilité est forte pour que les tribunaux se prononcent en faveur de l’existence d’un lien de subordination.
À l’origine des plateformes de VTC, à la pointe de la protection des chauffeurs
Authors: Kesselman Donna , Casagrande Cássio Luís
Published: March 2020

Uber, créé en 2009 à San Francisco, y a lancé son activité en 2010. Les autorités locales ont réagi diversement à l’entrée du nouvel acteur, qui s’est heurtée à la réglementation du secteur du transport individuel de personnes en milieu urbain. Le recours à des chauffeurs de VTC ayant le statut de travailleur indépendant a par ailleurs été à l’origine de l’adoption, fin 2019 en Californie, d’une loi visant à affronter la question des salariés déguisés. Différentes stratégies sont à l’œuvre pour aborder cette nouvelle figure des chauffeurs de VTC. Elles se trouvent au cœur du débat sur le renouveau syndical aux États-Unis.
Le rôle central des autorités publiques et des tribunaux dans la régulation des VTC
Authors: Adams Zoe
Published: March 2020

Cet article dresse une perspective historique de la régulation des VTC et des taxis au Royaume-Uni. Il insiste sur le fait que, si les pratiques commerciales des « nouvelles » entreprises de VTC, comme Uber, sont éminemment critiquables, notamment en matière de protection des travailleurs, le gouvernement et les tribunaux les ont activement autorisées et encouragées. En effet, ce sont eux, en dernier ressort, qui ont la capacité d’intervenir pour garantir que le secteur n’agisse pas seulement dans l’intérêt des grandes entreprises, mais aussi, plus fondamentalement, dans celui des travailleurs, des consommateurs et du grand public.
The effectiveness of language in corruption campaign
Authors: Syed Jaafar Sharifah Raihan , Mohd Zainol Rosmiza , Zaki Zaim
Published: March 2020

Cette recherche a pour but d’interpréter l’efficacité du langage dans les campagnes sur les corruptions. Cette recherche est une étude qualitative en recourant aux deux méthodes pour le recueil des données, à savoir les entrevues et les questionnaires. Afin de recueillir les données, une campagne d’anti-corruption avait été organisée pour s’être déroulée à Kampung Sungai Buloh, Dengkil, en collaboration avec l’Agence Anti-Corruption de Malaisie (MACC). Le résultat démontre que les habitants du village n’ont pas de difficulté à comprendre les messages diffusés par l’agent de MACC pendant la campagne. Le langage utilisé par l’agent de MACC fait preuve que l’éducation contre les corruptions devrait être appropriée au groupe cible.
Problems of the Second Metatarsophalangeal Joint
Authors: Thompson Francesca M , Hamilton William G
Published: March 2020

ABSTRACT: Diagnosis and treatment of second metatarsophalangeal joint problems are discussed. A new staging for Freiberg's disease is presented with differential treatment for each stage.

Subluxation of the second metatarsophalangeal joint occurs commonly but is often unrecognized. A simple test in physical examination, the "positive Lachman" of the metatarsophalangeal joint is illustrated and explained.

Although controversial, the etiology of synovitis of the second metatarsophalangeal joint is probably diverse; it can occur idiopathically or because of mechanical instabilities relating to malalignment of the first ray or disproportionate length of the second ray. When conservative treatment fails, surgical debridement of the joint is indicated.

The second metatarsophalangeal is the most common chronically dislocated joint in the foot. The surgical goal is a reduced metatarsophalangeal joint and a stable toe. Surgical correction detailed by the authors involves a stepwise approach depending on the severity of the contracture, bony overlap, and deformity.
The Effectiveness of Standardized Patients as a Teaching Method for Nursing Fundamentals
Authors: Yoo Moon Sook , Yoo Il Young
Published: March 2020

ABSTRACT

This study compared two teaching methods and examined their effects on student nurses' clinical competence. A nonequivalent control group was used for this quasiexperimental research, and a posttest design was used to compare the effects on clinical competence. A protocol was developed to include critical behaviors and was used as a checklist for evaluation.

The results showed that the standardized patient (SP) method was more effective than the traditional method in helping students:

* Identify patient needs.

* Perform mouth care, back care, position change, nelaton catheterization, and glycerine enema.

* Use more effective communication skills.

The authors believe use of the SP method should be expanded to more areas of the fundamentals of nursing course, and its effectiveness and efficiency evaluated. Also, the SP method should be used to evaluate the clinical competence of both students and graduate nurses.
The swarm that we already are: artificially intelligent (AI) swarming ‘insect drones’, targeting and international humanitarian law in a posthuman ecology
Authors: Arvidsson Matilda
Published: March 2020

Over the last fifty-odd years the US Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) has launched programs aiming at emulating and incorporating insect technologies in military technology. The US Army Unmanned Aircrafts Systems Roadmap 2010–2035 has specified insect swarming as a field of development for Unmanned Aviation Systems. While legal scholarship has paid substantial attention to drones, autonomous weapons systems and artificial intelligence (AI), developments based on insect swarming technologies have been largely ignored. This article takes emerging AI swarming technologies in military warfare systems as its starting point and asks about the significance of the swarming insect in and through contemporary International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and warfare. Taking up Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's notions of ‘the swarm’ and the ‘war machine’, and drawing on critical environmental legal scholarship, the article argues that rather than dispersing the human from its central position in the ‘targeting loop’, the increased interest in insects for commercial and warfare purposes is an intensification of transhumanist desires and an acceleration of late capitalism. As a counter-move, and as a contribution to a posthumanist turn in IHL, the article calls for becoming-insect, swarm and minoritarian as an epistemological practice and ontological shift in IHL and its critical scholarship, resulting in a posthumanitarian legal ordering of becoming.
O mundo do trabalho carioca: chapeleiras e chapeleiros na Fábrica de Chapéus Mangueira (1920-1940)
Authors: Santos Lyndon De Araújo
Published: March 2020

O artigo objetiva analisar o mundo do trabalho carioca e chapeleiro tal como se configurou na experiência da Fábrica de Chapéus Mangueira, nas três décadas seguintes após a morte do seu fundador, inserido no contexto das transformações políticas, econômicas e sociais, da “Era Vargas”. Utilizamos como fontes as listagens de empregados da FCM entre 1931 e 1954, impressos, jornais, inventários, testamentos, e um livro de instrução para mestres, publicado pela fábrica em 1947, além de fotografias e de depoimentos orais. Com base nesse acervo documental, intento compreender as suas vivências mais concretas no ambiente do cotidiano da fábrica, onde se reproduziram complexas relações sociais, étnicas, de poder e de gênero. Chapeleiras e chapeleiros foram, a seu modo, protagonistas de um processo que lhes fora avassalador em termos de exigências, cobranças, ameaças e lutas pela conquista, garantia e preservação dos seus direitos.
A blusa e a urna: metamorfoses do associativismo de trabalhadores em Pernambuco entre o Império e a República
Authors: Souza Felipe Azevedo
Published: March 2020

A Liga Operária foi a primeira organização de Pernambuco a disputar eleições com uma pauta programática voltada aos interesses dos trabalhadores e seus candidatos eram representantes da classe operária. Isso ocorreu já no primeiro ano republicano. O acompanhamento da trajetória da Liga abarca um momento de transição na atuação política dos trabalhadores urbanos organizados. O novo regime, a abolição da escravidão e a difusão de ideais socialistas tangenciaram considerável renovação de símbolos (o orgulho em trajar a blusa proletária) e estratégias de ação política (a disputa pelas urnas) daquele grupo de trabalhadores. Para dimensionar os limites e possibilidades deste cenário, o presente artigo busca colocar em perspectiva a atuação pregressa dos membros da Liga pelo universo associativo da capital pernambucana – através de mutualistas, irmandades e sociedades abolicionistas. E, em um segundo momento, analisar a trajetória eleitoral do grupo.
Alternative Comedy
Authors: Double Oliver
Published: March 2020

In the late 1970s, the alternative comedy scene exploded into life in Britain and completely changed the style, subject matter and politics of British stand-up. Contemporary critics talked about it as ‘anti-matter comedy’ that ‘makes you laugh while actually rearranging large chunks of your brain’. This book draws on a wealth of archive material – including unpublished recordings of early performances – and new interviews with key figures such as Alexei Sayle, Andy de la Tour and Jim Barclay, to provide a detailed history of the early scene and an examination of the distinctive modes of performance style which developed.

Beginning with its origins, the volume traces the influence of American stand-up, and in particular the significance of Mort Sahl and Lenny Bruce as the originators of a style of stand-up that influenced the British pioneers of alternative comedy. It shows how the opening of the Comedy Store in 1979 provided a catalyst for a new movement, which grew outward from there with the foundation of the group Alternative Cabaret and the opening of the Comic Strip. But it also looks at smaller venues and less celebrated acts that have not been as well remembered, including ranting poets and street performers. Finally, it looks at alternative comedy’s legacy, showing how it was the starting point for the UK’s thriving and varied live scene, which encompasses anything from small pub gigs to huge arena tours.
Childhood in Contemporary Performance of Shakespeare
Authors: Miller Gemma
Published: March 2020

Child characters feature more numerously and prominently in the Shakespearean canon than in that of any other early modern playwright. Focusing on stage and film productions from the past four decades, this study addresses how Shakespeare’s child characters are reflected, refracted and reinterpreted in performance. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates close reading, semiotics, childhood studies, queer theory and performance studies, Gemma Miller explores how a close analysis of Shakespeare’s child characters, both in the text and in performance, can reveal often uncomfortable truths about contemporary ideas of childhood, as well as offer fresh insights into the plays.

Among the works and productions analysed are stage productions of Richard III by Sean Holmes and Thomas Ostermeier; Jamie Lloyd’s and Michael Boyd’s stage productions of Macbeth and the films of Roman Polanski and Justin Kurzel; Deborah Warner’s stage production of Titus Andronicus and filmed adaptations by Jane Howell and Julie Taymor; and stage productions of The Winter’s Tale by Nicholas Hytner, and by Kenneth Branagh and Rob Ashford, and the ballet adaptation by Christopher Wheeldon.
Dark Sound
Authors: Ferrett D.
Published: March 2020

Dark Sound carries the dense cultural weight of darkness; it is the undertow of music that embodies melancholy, desire, grief, violence, rage, pain, loss and longing. Compelling and unnerving, dark sound immerses bodies in the darkest moments and delves into the depths of our hidden inner selves. There is a strangely perverse appeal about music that conjures intense affective states and about sound that can move its listeners to the very edge of the sayable.

Through a series of case studies that include Moor Mother, Anna Calvi, Björk, Chelsea Wolfe and Diamanda Galás, D Ferrett argues that the extreme limits and transgressions of dark sound not only imply the limits of language, but are moreover tied to a cultural and historical association between darkness and the feminine within music and music discourse. Whilst the oppressive and violent associations between darkness and femininity are acknowledged, the author challenges their value to misogynistic, racist, capitalist and patriarchal power, showing how dark sound is charged with social, creative and political momentum.
Judy Garland's Judy at Carnegie Hall
Authors: Betancourt Manuel
Published: March 2020

On the night of Sunday April 23, 1961 Judy Garland made history. That’s no hyperbole. Surrounded by a throng of ecstatic fans (3,165 to be exact), the legendary performer delivered a concert in Carnegie Hall whose live recording became, upon release, an unlikely pop cultural phenomenon. Judy at Carnegie Hall, the two-disc set that captured all 25 numbers she performed that night, went on to spend more than 70 weeks on the Billboard charts, win four Grammy Awards—including Album of the Year (making it the first live music album and the first album by a female performer to win the category)—and become in the process the fastest-selling 2-disc set in history.

What the recording highlights, and what’s made it an enduring classic on a class of its own, is the palpable connection between the songstress and her fans. “Indeed,” the New York Times reported in its review of the evening’s proceedings, “what actually was to have been a concert—and was—also turned into something not too remote from a revival meeting.” By looking at her song choices, her stage banter, the album’s cultural impact, and her place in the gay pantheon, this book argues that Judy’s palpable connection with her fans is precisely what her Capitol Records’ 2-disc album captured.
SME: Apparently Small But of Great Derivative Value! Literature Review of Tourism SMEs to Create Employment and Access to Finance
Authors: Nure Gazmend , Bazini Evelina , Madani Filloreta
Published: March 2020

Contributions from various tourism SMEs to improve socio-economic development in developed countries include employment creation, improved living standards and increased family income. Despite this, you have great deals on the direct link between job creation, but there is also some controversy over who creates jobs and how they do it. Various documents say that Tourism SMEs play an important role in training young people, covering the labour deficit and generating benefits to the efficiency of the economy, innovation and overall growth. Therefore, this study will help us build the evidence needed to create Tourism SME policies and understand the core operational values of SMEs that maximize results in terms of achieving basic objectives such as job creation, increasing employee productivity and what are the financial challenges facing tourism SMEs. Policy initiatives to encourage the financial sector to be more proactive in securing tourism financing SMEs can also be envisaged, including taking steps to improve the knowledge and understanding of the tourism sector.
Posts, Pillars, and Poles: Charles d'Orléans's Allegorical English Circles
Authors: Barbaccia Holly
Published: March 2020

Charles d'Orléans's final English narrative poem describes a circular chasing-game he calls “post and pillar.” As he plays, “Charles” meets his new English beloved; their conversation leads him to write her a ballade sequence. Scholars understand the post-and-pillar game as a literary symbol for courtly life and love. This article also interprets it as an allegory of Charles's collaborative English writing, of “making feet” with others. Several symbolic textiles in the poem (“kerchiefs of plesaunce”) indicate self-reflexively the veil of allegory, and the final of these “kerchiefs” lifts in the post-and-pillar scene, inviting us to seek extratextual referents. When we do, “post and pillar” suggests the de la Poles and their circle, William de la Pole, his wife Alice (née Chaucer), and the friends and writers associated with them. Charles allegorizes the de la Pole circle as a literary community where his creative life renews itself in competitive play.
A Forgotten Muhlenberg School: Trinity Hall in Washington, Pennsylvania
Authors: Richards Samuel J.
Published: March 2020

Trinity High School is an unusual name for a public school. Located in Washington County, Pennsylvania, it is a lasting reminder of Trinity Hall, a largely forgotten Episcopalian boys' school that operated between 1879 and 1906. Today Trinity Hall tends to be overlooked by scholars studying Philadelphia-born priest educator William Augustus Muhlenberg. Instead, examinations of Muhlenberg's influence tend to focus on the five New England schools known collectively as St. Grottlesex. Rediscovering Trinity Hall offers historians an opportunity to correct errors in local tradition, examine ways Muhlenberg's approach was adapted over time, and evaluate ways Trinity Hall helped southwestern Pennsylvanians, like Carnegie and Heinz, move from regional to cosmopolitan elite. Finally, it provides a second church school example from the Allegheny Mountains to complement studies of St. James School near Hagerstown, Maryland.
Teacher Induction Pathway of Physical and Health Education: A Case Study
Authors: Rivard Marie-Claude , Grenier Johanne , Leroux Mylène , Turcotte Sylvain , Morency Linda , Bordeleau Claude
Published: March 2020

This article aims to describe teacher induction (TI) with reference to two physical and health education (PHE) teachers based on three variables: 1) self-efficacy, 2) motivation and 3) satisfaction. Our case study relies on individual telephone interviews conducted during each teacher’s first five years of teaching and allows for describing the perceptions of these two teachers who persevered in the profession. The findings reveal that self-efficacy relates above all to harmonious relations with students and teaching colleagues, an experienced teacher in particular, and evolves over the course of TI through a process of introspection undertaken by the new teacher. A surprising observation is that, despite the difficult conditions of substitute teaching during TI, teachers maintain that it offers diverse contexts and opportunities for learning about the profession; thus, substitute teaching appears to positively impact self-efficacy. The relatively high motivation fluctuates over time, based on whether it is approached positively in terms of professional relations, or negatively in terms of job insecurity. The same holds true for satisfaction, which alters over the years, either upwards if based on positive contact with students or downwards if based on difficult hiring conditions. During the induction process, satisfaction evolves towards the quest for academic freedom and an awareness of the teacher’s impact on his or her students. The conclusion explains how a strong feeling of self-efficacy can contribute to perseverance in the profession during the TI phase, even in the presence of difficult job conditions.
Constitutionalism and the understanding of law
Authors: Minich Dobrochna
Published: March 2020

Constitutionalism is an intellectual trend that was born in the Age of Enlightenment. The first written constitutions are the basis for its formation. The normative value of the constitution results from its supremacy in the legal system. Constitution defines a system of government, separation of powers and fundamental rights. The latter one set fundamental values that determine the change of the legal paradigm.
Problems of incapacitation in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights
Authors: Pudło Anna
Published: March 2020

Incapacitation is a significant limitation of human rights and personal freedoms. The most serious consequences of legal incapacitation consist in loss or limitation of legal capacity of a legally incapacitated person. The European Court of Human Rights has not yet ruled on the contradiction of the institution of incapacitation with the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. However, the use of incapacitation is only allowed in ECHR jurisprudence in exceptional situations. The ECtHR has pointed out the basic requirements that this institution must meet in order to comply with the convention standard.
The duty to employ the head and deputy head of Public Registry Office in light of the provisions of the new act of Public Registry Records Law of 28 November 2014
Authors: Gurdek Magdalena
Published: March 2020

In the new act of Public Registry Records Law of 28 November 2014, despite introducing a lot of changes, the legislator has maintained adherence to the principle according to which a borough leader is the head of Public Registry Office. What has also been kept is the duty to employ another person on the post of the head of Public Registry Office in the districts inhabited by more than 50 thousand people while the obligatory employment of the deputy head of Public Registry Office in those districts has been given up. However minor the change seems to be, it brings about the situation in which all the opinion discrepancies
that has existed for many years concerning the question whether a borough leader employing another person on the post of the head of Public Registry Office maintains the rights in the scope of registering the marital status or not. This is why the author makes a thorough analysis of new solutions looking for answers to the following questions: what guided the legislator in making those changes, what doubts can they raise and what results can they have in practice? Since activities in the scope of registering marital status are of
utmost legal importance, the author demands the legislator should finally regulate the issues so that they are explicit. Due to that fact she is not passive herself and suggests de lege ferenda bold legal solutions which would enable to eliminate them.

A Conferência de Puebla: contexto e papel da juventude e da educação
Authors: Silva Wellington Teodoro da , Baptista Paulo Agostinho Nogueira , Siqueira Giseli do Prado
Published: March 2020

Há 40 anos mais de 190 bispos latino-americanos, com a presença na sua abertura do recém-eleito Papa João Paulo II, estiveram reunidos para a III Conferência Geral do Episcopado Latino-americano, no México, em Puebla de Los Angeles, entre 27 de janeiro e 13 de fevereiro de 1979. O objetivo de se celebrar 10 anos de Medellín, para Paulo VI, era traduzir a sua Exortação Apostólica Evangelii Nuntiandi para a América Latina: da “evangelização no mundo contemporâneo” para a “evangelização no presente e no futuro da América Latina”. O contexto foi muito conturbado tanto pela realidade social, econômica, cultural e política quanto pela situação religiosa. Ditaduras, torturas, morte e desaparecimento de milhares de pessoas, guerrilhas de resistência, emergência do neoliberalismo, da direita e do neopentecostalismo, além da eleição de um papa que viveu sobre a perseguição comunista na Polônia, esse era o clima que afetou a Conferência. Nesse momento de celebração de quatro décadas desse importante evento, o objetivo do artigo é fazer memória do contexto sociopolítico e eclesial, além de recortar dois temas que se associam às pesquisas dos autores: juventude e educação. O método é definido como análise de conteúdo e documental, portanto, é de natureza bibliográfica. As conclusões mostram como a dinâmica do contexto atuou na redação do Documento. E que, apesar disso, foi possível avançar em alguns aspectos recortados - a juventude e a educação – que não deixaram também de apresentar suas limitações. Houve a definição de importante “opção preferencial pelos jovens”, uma das prioridades pastorais, e a educação foi definida como um dos meios para a comunhão e a participação.
O clamor dos pobres: uma interpelação à consciência religiosa e à fé cristã
Authors: Correia Júnior João Luiz , Silva Drance Elias da
Published: March 2020

O clamor dos pobres, tema deste trabalho, interpela a consciência humanitária das pessoas e é um forte questionamento à consciência religiosa e à fé cristã. Apesar disso, a opção preferencial pelos pobres, consagrada no Documento final da Conferência Episcopal realizada em Puebla de Los Angeles, é causa, até hoje, de muitas controvérsias dentro e fora da Igreja. Tendo presente esse contexto, o presente artigo tem como objetivo apresentar a ressonância do clamor dos pobres no contexto da Conferência de Puebla; demonstrar que esse clamor não é recente: está presente desde a Antiguidade, e foi contemplado nos primeiros textos sagrados, inclusive da cultura religiosa de Israel e da Religião Cristã; repercutir sobre esse clamor das multidões empobrecidas, na contemporaneidade. A pesquisa é bibliográfica, a partir do Documento Oficial das conclusões da Conferência de Puebla; de análises críticas feitas por teólogos latino-americanos, bem como de artigos e livros de autores do campo epistemológico das Ciências da Religião. Os resultados alcançados apontam sobre a atualidade do tema, uma vez que observa-se em toda parte uma crescente onda de empobrecimento e, ao mesmo tempo, um crescente descompromisso e intolerância para com o clamor das grandes massas excluídas.
Sibilas: a sobrevivência das profetisas pagãs no mundo cristão
Authors: Magnani Maria Cláudia Almeida Orlando
Published: March 2020

Os mitos antigos não estão mortos. A partir desta afirmação fundamentada nas obras de autores como Warburg, Jean Seznec, Erwin Panofsky e Fritz Saxl, este trabalho pretende apontar os caminhos históricos que legitimaram a sobrevivência do mito das sibilas no mundo cristão, em sua estreita relação com a astrologia. O paganismo não renasceu após o medievo, mas esteve sempre presente no cristianismo, não só como símbolos, mas como efetiva influência essencial sobre os homens e as suas vidas. Alguns momentos históricos em particular são privilegiados neste caminho, desde os padres apologistas do cristianismo primitivo até o nascimento da ciência moderna. Sibilas e astrologia, como testemunhos “de fora” são presença constante seja na teologia cristã, seja na literatura e na música, ou nas representações plásticas do mundo cristão, que aqui privilegiamos. A sua sobrevivência ou pós-vida (Naschleben) é ora afirmada também pela legitimação de grandes nomes da patrística e da escolástica, e ainda por meio da influência de Albumasar, teólogo muçulmano nascido no século VIII e que faz o elo entre sibilas, astrologia e a Virgem Maria. O que fazem as sibilas nos tetos das igrejas católicas? É esta a pergunta que o presente trabalho pretende, em grande medida, responder.
Arte e descolonização como um mecanismo de defesa na obra de Grada Kilomba
Authors: Lima Raisa Inocencio Ferreira
Published: March 2020

Apresentação da obra Memórias da Plantação: episódios de racismo cotidiano e da série audiovisual Illusions, especialmente, "Narcissus and Echo”, criados por Grada Kilomba. A artista, filósofa e psicanalista, ilustra as operações estético-sensíveis do seu corpus teórico, através de um testemunho crítico sobre a história e epistemologia do racismo − denominado racismo ontológico. Neste artigo, o trabalho subjetivo atua em diferentes campos, de forma interdisciplinar: na descolonização do conhecimento; na interseccionalidade entre questões de classe, gênero e raça; como também, no desejo de constituição de um sujeito da negritude. Sendo assim, este artigo pretende traçar um panorama argumentativo que destrinche o que é o racismo epistemológico e como ele afeta o cotidiano nas instituições e na psique social. Finalmente, através da obra e do pensamento de Grada Kilomba, perguntar como podemos operar novos meios de reparação histórica e criar novas sensibilidades, compondo assim um novo sujeito, ou ainda, uma existência além da redução ao silêncio, ilustrado pela máscara de Anastácia. São, portanto, temáticas diferentes que se entrecruzam para tentar dar conta da realidade social, que nos afeta no campo político, sensível e sentimental. Por isso, de antemão, a teoria se revela uma prática do pensamento ativista, como também, a arte se revela uma forma de pensar a vida e vice-versa, compondo uma ética que descoloniza o pensamento, a arte, a memória e que emancipa ao produzir outras maneiras de expressão do ser. Palavras-chave: Descolonização estética. Afrossensibilidade. Racismo epistemológico. Feminismo intersecciconal

Plaidoyer pour la prise en compte de la spécificité juridique du Québec dans la traduction de contrats
Authors: Tellier-Marcil Arnaud
Published: March 2020

Le Québec est une société distincte au sein du Canada en raison de la langue, mais également par sa culture. On y trouve notamment une culture juridique unique. Concrètement, la common law est le régime applicable dans l’ensemble des provinces hormis le Québec, où c’est plutôt le droit civil qui régit les rapports d’ordre privé. La préservation de cette spécificité juridique ne relève pas seulement de la responsabilité des autorités publiques. Les traducteurs de contrats ont aussi un rôle important à jouer. Cependant, nombreux sont ceux qui n’en ont pas conscience et qui se contentent de franciser les termes de common law, une démarche littérale simplifiée par la normalisation de ce vocabulaire, en anglais comme en français. Un tel procédé de nature sourcière est susceptible d’entraîner des conséquences néfastes. D’un point de vue purement matériel, il pourrait s’avérer coûteux pour l’une des parties au contrat en cas de litige, puisqu’il est impossible de savoir comment le tribunal québécois saisi de l’affaire interprétera les termes de common law francisés, qui, dans bien des cas, revêtent un sens distinct ou sont inconnus en droit civil. D’un point de vue politique, les contrats traduits selon une logique sourcière contribuent au phénomène d’acculturation juridique du Québec. En effet, les termes de common law qui sont importés à tort dans les contrats destinés au Québec risquent de s’introduire tôt ou tard dans le langage courant, au détriment du vocabulaire du droit civil. Pour éviter de cautionner ainsi l’anéantissement du système juridique québécois, il suffit d’adopter une méthode cibliste. Plutôt que de se complaire dans la transposition littérale des notions de common law, le traducteur de contrats doit chercher un équivalent fonctionnel dans le lexique du droit civil québécois. La version française ne constituera certes pas un miroir formel de la version anglaise, mais il est normal qu’il en soit ainsi, puisque le système juridique n’est pas le même au Québec que dans les autres provinces canadiennes.

Falls are a serious consequence of declining physical function. Otago exercise is a strength and balance training program designed to prevent falls and enhance health status among the elderly. This study aimed to investigate the effect of a 12-week Otago exercise intended to reduce the risk of falls and health status among the elderly with chronic illness in the social elderly institution. This quasi-experimental study employed a pre- and post-test design using a control group. The study involved an intervention group (21 respondents) and a control group (21 respondents). The sample used in this study were elderly living in a social elderly institution. The sample was selected using simple random sampling. The data were analyzed using Mann–Whitney test, independent t-test, and Chi-square test. Otago exercise significantly reduced the respondents’ risk of falling and enhanced their health status. Significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of the risk of fall (p= 0.041) and health status (p= 0.011). Otago exercise significantly improves the health status and reduces the risk of falling among elderly with chronic illness. The exercise can be recommended for older adults with chronic illness in social elderly institutions and communities. Abstrak Efektivitas Latihan Otago terhadap Status Kesehatan dan Risiko Jatuh pada Lansia dengan Penyakit Kronik.

Germinal centres (GCs) are T follicular helper cell (Tfh)-dependent structures that form in response to vaccination, producing long-lived antibody secreting plasma cells and memory B cells that protect against subsequent infection. With advancing age the GC and Tfh cell response declines, resulting in impaired humoral immunity. We sought to discover what underpins the poor Tfh cell response in ageing and whether it is possible to correct it. Here, we demonstrate that older people and aged mice have impaired Tfh cell differentiation upon vaccination. This deficit is preceded by poor activation of conventional dendritic cells type 2 (cDC2) due to reduced type 1 interferon signalling. Importantly, the Tfh and cDC2 cell response can be boosted in aged mice by treatment with a TLR7 agonist. This demonstrates that age-associated defects in the cDC2 and Tfh cell response are not irreversible and can be enhanced to improve vaccine responses in older individuals.

Carbon catabolite repression 4 (CCR4) is a conserved mRNA deadenylase regulating posttranscriptional gene expression. However, regulation of CCR4 in virus infections is less understood. Here, we characterized a pro-viral role of CCR4 in replication of a plant cytorhabdovirus, Barley yellow striate mosaic virus (BYSMV). The barley (Hordeum vulgare) CCR4 protein (HvCCR4) was identified to interact with the BYSMV phosphoprotein (P). The BYSMV P protein recruited HvCCR4 from processing bodies (PBs) into viroplasm-like bodies. Overexpression of HvCCR4 promoted BYSMV replication in plants. Conversely, knockdown of the small brown planthopper CCR4 inhibited viral accumulation in the insect vector. Biochemistry experiments revealed that HvCCR4 was recruited into N–RNA complexes by the BYSMV P protein and triggered turnover of N-bound cellular mRNAs, thereby releasing RNA-free N protein to bind viral genomic RNA for optimal viral replication. Our results demonstrate that the co-opted CCR4-mediated RNA decay facilitates cytorhabdovirus replication in plants and insects.
Prediction signals in the cerebellum: Beyond supervised motor learning
Authors: Hull Court
Published: March 2020

While classical views of cerebellar learning have suggested that this structure predominantly operates according to an error-based supervised learning rule to refine movements, emerging evidence suggests that the cerebellum may also harness a wider range of learning rules to contribute to a variety of behaviors, including cognitive processes. Together, such evidence points to a broad role for cerebellar circuits in generating and testing predictions about movement, reward, and other non-motor operations. However, this expanded view of cerebellar processing also raises many new questions about how such apparent diversity of function arises from a structure with striking homogeneity. Hence, this review will highlight both current evidence for predictive cerebellar circuit function that extends beyond the classical view of error-driven supervised learning, as well as open questions that must be addressed to unify our understanding cerebellar circuit function.
The Effect of Gender and Style Variables on Hedging Devices among Persian Speakers
Authors: Hassani Maryam , Razmdideh Pariya
Published: March 2020

Language as a social phenomenon is affected by different factors such as age, gender, social status, culture, etc. Hedge is also considered as a part of language and a pragmatic phenomenon, seeming to be under the influence of these factors. This paper aims at investigating the effect of gender (female and male) and style (informal and formal) on the use of hedging by Persian speakers which hasn’t been considered yet. To this ends, in informal style, 8 Persian films (2012-2018) lasting for 12 hours and 54 minutes, 7 telephone conversations, each lasted for 20 minutes among genders, and some recorded daily conversations in different contexts were selected randomly. In formal style, 10 MA theses from different majors written by 5 Persian male and 5 female students were examined based on hedge taxonomies by Salager-Meyer (1997), Clemen (1996), Skelton (1988), and Jalilifar (2006). In this study, a new hedging category was added to their taxonomies. Running Chi-square analyses, it was found that, firstly, there was no significant difference between genders considering the use of hedges and no difference in the number of hedges used by them. Secondly, the hedging devices were used more in informal style. Thirdly, the used hedging categories were found with significant difference in two genders and two styles.
Is Corrective Feedback in the ESL Classroom Really Effective? A Background Study
Authors: Bacquet Gaston
Published: March 2020

The use, range and efficacy of different types of corrective feedback in the ESL classroom have been widely researched, especially over the past 30 years. This paper attempts to dissect such research and to provide language teachers with an understanding of the background literature and theoretical views surrounding the subject. By summarizing different, often contrasting views on what corrective feedback is, how it works and how effective it is (or not), I strive to provide ESL teachers with a deeper understanding of the available literature and different perspectives that can hopefully better inform and shape our practice. The paper first provides definition of key terms related to corrective feedback, it proceeds to explore a range of theories and views and to look into the core studies regarding both written and spoken feedback and it ends with a short discussion on how these finding are relevant for ESL teachers.
Book Review: Ilse Depraetere and Chad Langford(2019edn). Advanced English grammar: A Linguistic Approach: London: Bloomsbury
Authors: Lewis Marilyn
Published: March 2020

As the number of English grammar books grows, so does the search for words to distinguish one from another. A quick look at titles shows that many labels have already been used: advanced, functional, practical, real, and even The, all of them descriptors which could apply equally well to this one. Potential buyers will have questions about a grammar book labelled “advanced” and “a linguistic approach”. How “advanced” is the content and for whom is it intended?
Peer Assessment in a Blended Translation Course: Students’ Perceptions, Motivation and their Self-perceived Translational Skill Development
Authors: Huynh Thi Lan , Thuy Nguyen Uyen Nu
Published: March 2020

Peer assessment (PA) has become as an influential educational tool in higher education for many years. However, there is little evidence about technology-facilitated PA in the field of Translation. Therefore, this study attempts to fill in the gap in the literature with an aim to scrutinize the students’ perceptions and motivation toward the adoption of a five-week online PA activity in a Translation course. The correlation between students’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and self-perceived skill enhancement is further explored.  In order to gather research data, thirty-six third-year students were asked to respond to two questionnaires about the perceptions and motivation of online PA in a five-point Likert-type scale. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were used to analyze the collected data. A number of findings have been revealed by the end of the study. Firstly, the students exhibited a highly positive perception and a high level of motivation in participating in this online task. Secondly, throughout the activity, the participants valued intrinsic motivational factors more importantly than extrinsic ones. Thirdly, the findings highlighted that intrinsic motivation stood out to be the significant predictor of self-perceived translation skill improvement, whereas no statistically significant relationship between extrinsic motivation and a sense of skill enhancement suggested a negligible impact of external factors perceived by students. Potential implications for translation pedagogy and research are also included in the study. The results of this pioneering study, consequently, add to the scarce literature in the local translation landscape by proposing a possible alternative to the face-to-face peer assessment format as well as paving the way for future peer assessment practice and research in blended learning courses.
