Sinema üzerine filozofik görüşleri olan Rudolf Arnheim, düşünmenin görme ile ilk anda oluştuğunu yazar. Arnheim’in görme ile düşünmeye dair bu görüşünde “görmek” kavramını metaforik olarak kullanmadığını özellikle hatırlatmak gerekiyor. Görmek ve düşünmek arasındaki ilişki, sözcüğün tam da duyu organımız olan gözlerimizle yaptığımız görme üzerine kurulur. Filmlerdeki görsel imajların niçin sadece eğlence olarak değerlendirilemeyeceğini temellendiren bu tür görüşler sadece Arnheim’de değil, Béla Balâzs’da, Jean Epstein’de, Sergei Eisenstein’de ve son yıllarda Gilles Deleuze, Alain Badiou, Jacques Ranciere gibi filozoflarda da görülebilir. Düşünmek, görmek ile başlar.

THE AIRCRAFT ENGINE PROPELLER MAIN CHARACTERISTICS DETERMINATION IMPROVED METHOD
Authors: Bezpalyy V. , Pushilin O.
Published: July 2024

An improved method of the fixed and variable pitch propeller aerodynamic characteristics determining that based on the vortex theory is presented. It is shown that the design of propellers has it`s peculiarities, it does not take into account a number of factors that affect the propeller operation to one or another degree. This actualized the special purpose unmanned aerial vehicles engines propellers aerodynamic characteristics calculating methodology improvement. Since the use of the propeller profiles performances in the design requires the air compressibility correction introduction already after the selection of the propeller, that complicates the design, therefore the mathematical model of the variable-pitch propeller working process has been improved based on the profile model with the correct consideration of the Mach and Reynolds numbers influence on the aerodynamic characteristics of the air screw. This advantage of the developed airfoil model allows the design and verification of a subsonic propeller for ground and flight operations. Methods of design and verification calculations of propeller blades are presented. Verification of the improved methodology was carried out by comparing calculated data with known experimental data. The reliability of the improved aircraft engine propeller main performances determination methodology is substantiated by the correct application of the numerical and experimental methods of aerodynamics, the consistency of theoretical provisions with experimental data. The satisfactory coincidence of the calculated data obtained by the improved method of the engine propeller main performances determination allowed us to draw a conclusion concerning its efficiency. The improved technique for the main performances of an aircraft engine propeller determination does not require knowledge on the propeller profiles aerodynamic characteristics from which the blade is drawn, since these characteristics are calculated based on known geometric data, taking into account the Mach and Reynolds numbers. This allows you to design and build a subsonic propeller of both fixed pitch and variable pitch.
THE ECHELONED MINE BARRIERS BREACHING PROPOSALS BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE OF THE RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN WAR
Authors: Koshka V. , Lukianenko S. , Krivtsov D.
Published: July 2024

The echeloned mine barriers system of the russian occupying forces became a real challenge for the Ukrainian military. The first days of the Ukrainian offensive in the Zaporozhye direction revealed that the russians had created very dense minefields on their defense lines. The occupiers used continuous mining of the area, that is several times higher than the normative values for laying mines.
The solution to this problem can be found in the application of non-standard technical solutions and tactical techniques that will allow to break through the echeloned mine barriers system of the russian occupying forces.
Regarding the technical aspect of this issue solving, there was an interesting technical solution in the history of weapons and military equipment. We are talking about a hovercraft, that is supported above a supporting surface (land or water) on a compressed air layer (cushion) created by ship fans (superchargers). This principle of movement allows them to overcome underwater engineering structures and to break through mine barriers, to move on ice and swampy terrain, to go to the shore equipped in the anti-landing position, to overcome ditches and trenches. These tactical properties of hovercraft can be taken as a basis for the creation of a new generation of armored vehicles based on new principles of movement.
In theory, the combat use of a whole series of armored vehicles on an air cushion (tanks, combat vehicles, armored personnel carriers, mortars, demining machines, evacuation vehicles, etc.) will expand the capabilities of mechanized units, will allow to improve existing methods and techniques for breaking through the echeloned mine barriers, forcing water obstacles, swampy and desert terrain.
The issue of creating armored vehicles on an air cushion to break the mine barrier requires further research.

Published: July 2024

The article examines the essence of the defense resources financial management, institutional and legal support, as well as the practice of its modernization in the leading countries of the world and Ukraine under the conditions of a full-scale war. According to the theoretical and institutional aspects analysis results, the concepts of " defense resources financial management" and "defense resources financial management system" were clarified, and the main principles and elements of the mechanism of its implementation were outlined. An assessment of the modern world practice of defense resources financial management was carried out on the example of the US Armed Forces in terms of institutional infrastructure, regulations, standards and tools. The main determinants of the US Armed Forces financial management are established: combat capability, human capital and environmental protection according to ESG principles and Sustainable Development Goals. The components of improving the system of financial management of Ukraine’s defense resources in accordance with the implementation of NATO financial management standards and regulations have been identified. A thorough analysis of the distribution of expenditures and the credits granting under budget programs in accordance with the goals of state policy in 2020-2023 and projected for 2024-2025, of individual defense budget expenditures of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine in accordance with the budget request for 2024-2026 raised questions about the impact of budget defense expenditures for the development of Ukraine's economy. The existence of the specified positive influence was proved by means of correlation-regression analysis based on the data of budget expenditures in the time horizon of 2014-2023, with the period before the full-scale invasion of the aggressor country being singled out. However, the scientific hypothesis has not been confirmed for the US economy, that is, military spending is not characterized by a significant impact on the US GDP.
COVID-19 Impact on Infectious Disease Training and Residents’ Satisfaction in the Republic of Croatia
Authors: Kusulja Marija , Valenčak-Ignjatić Ivana , Prtorić Laura
Published: July 2024

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant changes in healthcare. Infectious disease (ID) physicians were among the most affected, yet comparisons are scarce on training implementation and the levels of residents’ satisfaction between the pre-pandemic and the pandemic era. Methods: We conducted a nationwide cross-sectional survey among Croatian ID residents between May and July 2021. The survey included 34 Likert-scale and multiple-choice questions pertaining to training rotation interruptions, educational opportunities, work hours, symptoms of burnout and overall satisfaction. Results: The survey was completed by 52 (67.5%) ID trainees in Croatia. The curriculum-defined rotations were not met in real life before the pandemic (56.8%), and 63.5% of participants reported working exclusively with COVID-19 patients more than a year into the pandemic. The pre-pandemic educational opportunities included regular lectures for 61.4%, extra-curricular training for 59.1%, congress and symposia attendances for 52.3% and peer lectures for 27.3%. As many as 11.4% had never had a meeting with their mentor, while 59.1% only met in passing. Overtime work affected 90.9% of residents before and 96.1% during the pandemic. All burnout symptoms have increased from the pre-pandemic to the pandemic era. Overall satisfaction with specialty training has dropped from an average of 3.1 (SD 0.9) before the pandemic to 1.9 (SD 0.9) during the pandemic. Conclusions: Our survey among Croatian ID residents indicated problems with educational opportunities and disruption of the planned training rotations before the pandemic. These problems were aggravated during the pandemic, thus causing a plunge in resident satisfaction levels. A closer monitoring of adherence to the training curriculum is mandated, as well as improvements in mentorship programs and burnout detection and reduction activities.

Published: July 2024

Objective: As HIV becomes a more manageable chronic condition, with increasing life expectancy and an ageing population, kidney disease due to HIV or antiretroviral therapy (ART) have become more prominent. Moreover, the nephrotoxic potential of some frontline antiretroviral drugs has become established. The study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors for renal dysfunction among HIV-infected patients commencing ART at a southern Nigerian tertiary hospital.
Methods: A cross-sectional prospective study involving 263 HIV-infected treatment-naïve patients commencing ART at the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Port Harcourt. Blood and urine samples were taken from randomly recruited patients for appropriate laboratory analysis. The MDRD formulae were used for evaluating renal function while renal dysfunction was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤ 60mls/min/1.73m2 and /or proteinuria.
Results: The average age of enrolled patients was 36.3±10.15 with 59.3% women. 33.8% had proteinuria and 6.5% had eGFR<60mls/min/1.73m2. The prevalence of renal dysfunction was 37.6%. Age > 50 years, anaemia and use of Traditional medicine were independent predictors of renal dysfunction.
Conclusion: In this cohort of treatment naïve HIV patients, a high prevalence of renal dysfunction exists. Older age, anaemia and traditional medicine use were predictors of renal dysfunction. There is a need for clinicians to monitor these variables, especially the use of Traditional medicine which is easily overlooked in practice.

Objective: This study assessed the utilization and perceived spousal involvement in contraceptive use among female employees of child-bearing age in a private university in Nigeria.
Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study of 270 women who were selected using a purposive sampling method. A structured interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to elicit data. Contraceptive utilization was assessed as ever or never utilized. Perception of male involvement was graded as good or poor using items on the questionnaire. Data analysis was done using IBM SPSS version 22 and presented as tables. P< 0.05 was taken as statistically significant.
Results: Participants' mean age was 35.3± 5.9 years. Most 236 (87.4%) of them had tertiary education. Four-fifths- 219 (81.1%) had ever been counselled on family planning or utilized contraceptives 216 (80.0%). The majority 232 (85.9%) of the women had good perceived spousal involvement scores, while 38 (14.1%) of the women had poor perceived spousal involvement scores. There were statistically significant associations between receiving family planning counselling, spouse involvement in contraceptive choices, fear of side effects, and spousal refusal with the utilization of contraceptives and perception of spousal involvement (p<0.001 in all instances)
Conclusion: Receiving family planning counselling and spousal support positively influenced the utilization of contraceptives and the perception of male involvement, while the fear of contraceptive side effects had negative effects on both outcomes. There is a need to improve male engagement and female counselling in contraceptive use. Health education should also focus on debunking exaggerations of contraceptive side effects.

TRANSFORMING MEDELLÍN: ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN DESIGN AS AGENTS OF SOCIAL CHANGE
Authors: Meninato Pablo , Marinic Gregory
Published: July 2024

This article examines the transformative impact of Sergio Fajardo’s mayoral administration (2003–2007) in Medellín, Colombia, focusing on architecture and urban design projects that have promoted equity. Central to this urban renaissance was the Proyecto Urbano Integral (PUI) Nororiental, which revitalized informal settlements in the city’s northeastern zone. The initiative leveraged financing from Empresas Públicas de Medellín (EPM), a city-owned utility company, ensuring sustainable investment in public works without reliance on international loans. This financial model enabled the redistribution of funds to Medellín’s poorest neighborhoods, fostering transparency and combating corruption. Key to this urban strategy was the involvement of the Empresa de Desarrollo Urbano (EDU) which implemented the PUI with an intersectional planning approach combining public transit, education, culture, recreation, health, and safety initiatives. The PUI emphasized community participation through “Imaginary Workshops” promoting ownership and engagement among residents. The PUI Nororiental, enhanced by the Metrocable transit system and associated public spaces, has successfully integrated isolated neighborhoods while reducing violence and fostering social cohesion. Despite critiques of high costs, this article argues that quality public spaces and civic buildings promote community pride and destigmatization. Medellín’s “social urbanism” serves as a model for addressing inequity in Latin America and the broader Global South, demonstrating how architecture and urban design can drive social change.

The problems of heating and acceleration of solar wind particles are of significant and enduring interest in astrophysics. The interactions between waves and particles are crucial in determining the distributions of proton and alpha particles, resulting in non-Maxwellian characteristics, including temperature anisotropies and particle beams. These processes can be better understood as long as the beam can be separated from the core for the two major components of the solar wind. We utilized an alternative numerical approach that leverages the clustering technique employed in machine learning to differentiate the primary populations within the velocity distribution rather than employing the conventional bi-Maxwellian fitting method. Separation of the core and beam revealed new features for protons and alphas. We estimated that the total temperature of the two beams was slightly higher than that of their respective cores, and the temperature anisotropy for the cores and beams was larger than 1. We concluded that the temperature ratio between alphas and protons largely over 4 is due to the presence of a massive alpha beam, which is approximately 50% of the alpha core. We provided evidence that the alpha core and beam populations are sensitive to Alfvénic fluctuations and the surfing effect found in the literature can be recovered only when considering the core and beam as a single population. Several similarities between proton and alpha beams would suggest a common and local generation mechanism not shared with the alpha core, which may not have necessarily been accelerated and heated locally.
GRB 231115A: A Nearby Magnetar Giant Flare or a Cosmic Short Gamma-Ray Burst?
Authors: Wang Yun , Wei Yu-Jia , Zhou Hao , Ren Jia , Xia Zi-Qing , Jin Zhi-Ping
Published: July 2024

There are two classes of gamma-ray transients with a duration shorter than 2 s. One consists of cosmic short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) taking place in the deep Universe via the neutron star mergers, and the other is the magnetar giant flares (GFs) with energies of ∼1044 − 1046 erg from “nearby” galaxies. Though the magnetar GFs and the short GRBs have rather similar temporal and spectral properties, their energies (E

γ,iso) are different by quite a few orders of magnitude and hence can be distinguished supposing the host galaxies have been robustly identified. The newly observed GRB 231115A has been widely discussed as a new GF event for its high probability of being associated with M82. Here we conduct a detailed analysis of its prompt emission observed by Fermi-GBM and compare the parameters with existing observations. The prompt gamma-ray emission properties of GRB 231115A, if associated with M82, nicely follow the E
p,z–E

γ,iso relation of the GFs, where E
p,z is the peak energy of the gamma-ray spectrum after the redshift (z) correction. To be a short GRB, the redshift needs to be ∼1. Though such a chance is low, the available X-ray/GeV observation upper limits are not stringent enough to further rule out this possibility. We have also discussed the prospect of convincingly establishing the magnetar origin of GRB 231115A-like events in the future.

SN 2023ixf, recently reported in the nearby galaxy M101 at a distance of 6.85 Mpc, was one of the closest and brightest core-collapse supernovae in the last decade. In this work, we present multiwavelength photometric observation of SN 2023ixf with the Multi-channel Photometric Survey Telescope (Mephisto) in the uvgr bands and with the twin 50 cm telescopes in the griz bands. We find that the bolometric luminosity reached the maximum value of 3 × 1043 erg s−1 at 3.9 days after the explosion and fully settled onto the radioactive tail at ∼90 days. The effective temperature decreased from 3.2 × 104 K at the first observation and approached a constant of ∼(3000–4000) K after the first 2 months. The evolution of the photospheric radius is consistent with a homologous expansion with a velocity of 8700 km s−1 in the first 2 months, and it shrunk subsequently. Based on the radioactive tail, the initial nickel mass is about M
Ni ∼ 0.098 M
⊙. The explosion energy and the ejecta mass are estimated to be E ≃ (1.0–5.7) × 1051 erg and M

From Seeds to Supermassive Black Holes: Capture, Growth, Migration, and Pairing in Dense Protobulge Environments
Authors: Shi Yanlong , Kremer Kyle , Hopkins Philip F.
Published: July 2024

The origins and mergers of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) remain a mystery. We describe a scenario from a novel multiphysics simulation featuring rapid (≲1 Myr) hyper-Eddington gas capture by a ∼1000 M
⊙ “seed” black hole (BH) up to supermassive (≳106
M
⊙) masses in a massive, dense molecular cloud complex typical of high-redshift starbursts. Due to the high cloud density, stellar feedback is inefficient, and most of the gas turns into stars in star clusters that rapidly merge hierarchically, creating deep potential wells. Relatively low-mass BH seeds at random positions can be “captured” by merging subclusters and migrate to the center in ∼1 freefall time (vastly faster than dynamical friction). This also efficiently produces a paired BH binary with ∼0.1 pc separation. The centrally concentrated stellar density profile (akin to a “protobulge”) allows the cluster as a whole to capture and retain gas and build up a large (parsec-scale) circumbinary accretion disk with gas coherently funneled to the central BH (even when the BH radius of influence is small). The disk is “hypermagnetized” and “flux-frozen”: dominated by a toroidal magnetic field with plasma β ∼ 10−3, with the fields amplified by flux-freezing. This drives hyper-Eddington inflow rates ≳1 M
⊙ yr−1, which also drive the two BHs to nearly equal masses. The late-stage system appears remarkably similar to recently observed high-redshift “little red dots.” This scenario can provide an explanation for rapid SMBH formation, growth, and mergers in high-redshift galaxies.

Presbytis chrysomelas cruciger or also known as the Tricolour langur—is rare, endemic to Sarawak and Kalimantan in Borneo and classified as a critically endangered subspecies. The current P. c. cruciger population size is uncertain because the numbers are continuously decreasing. At present, there is no comprehensive scientific report on P. c. cruciger in Sarawak, although this subspecies is known to inhabit Maludam area. Recent first sighting of P. c. cruciger in Jemoreng Sarawak presents a research opportunity to study its feeding from a molecular ecology perspective. Herein, we report the first findings on the dietary intake of P. c. cruciger using a high-throughput DNA metabarcoding approach. We emphasise the diet intake of P. c. cruciger from Jemoreng Protected Forest in Sarawak using DNA metabarcoding of the trnL region. Preliminary findings revealed 11 amplicon sequence variants (ASV) classified into one phylum, four classes, four orders, four families, three genera and three plant species. Fibraurea tinctoria (akar kuning; Family Menispermaceae), Poikilospermum suaveolens (akar jangkang; Family Urticaceae) and Litchi chinensis (lychee; Family Sapindaceae) were the three main plant species that were consumed by P. c. cruciger. Understanding the dietary intake of P. c. cruciger is of paramount importance for their conservation and management of the habitat areas where their population resides.
DNA barcoding reveals a taxonomic fraud: Note on validity of Propomacrus muramotoae (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae)

Until the early 2000s, the genus Propomacrus was known to comprise two species, occurring in the Eastern Mediterranean and Southeast China. The discovery of Propomacrus muramotoae Fujioka in Tibet and subsequently in Bhutan and Nepal, might play a crucial role in bridging the geographical distribution gap of the Euchirini tribe between the Mediterranean and Central China, offering profound insights into its evolution and biogeography. However, all specimens, including the holotype specimen, were sourced from a single insect vendor, with no further specimens found or catalogued in museum collections thereafter. During our examination of a P. muramotoae specimen from a private collection in South Korea, we found its COI gene sequence to be identical to that of P. bimucronatus (Pallas) from Turkey, a species known for its wide distribution and genetic variability across regional populations. This overlap in genetic identity raised significant doubts, further compounded by our detection of deliberate modifications in essential diagnostic features during morphological examination. All three specimens we examined showed crude modifications, including staining and artificial grinding. Despite our inability to access the P. muramotoae type specimens for direct examination—a challenge we attempted to overcome through various means—it is evident that significant fraudulent tampering has occurred with the P. muramotoae specimens. Therefore, a new synonymy is proposed: Propomacrus bimucronatus Pallas, 1781 = P. muramotoae Fujioka, 2007 (syn. nov.). We also advocate for a straightforward verification of the type specimen through molecular analysis of the COI barcode region and morphological re-examination under a microscope for those who have access to the type specimens.
A new glassfrog of the genus Centrolene (Amphibia, Centrolenidae) from the Subandean Kutukú Cordillera, eastern Ecuador

We describe a new species of Centrolene from the Subandean Cordillera of Kutukú in southeastern Ecuador. The new species differs from all other glassfrogs by the combination of the following characters: presence of processes of vomers but without vomerine teeth; humeral spines in males; dorsum green with light green dots and without dark marks; dorsal skin with abundant tubercles; all visceral peritonea translucent (except for pericardium); and small body size (snout-vent length 21.5–21.9 mm in adult males). The new species is sister to Centrolene camposi from the Western Cordillera of the Andes of southwestern Ecuador, and together they form a clade with C. condor from the Subandean Cóndor Cordillera in southeastern Ecuador. Our time tree suggests that the new species originated at the end of the Pliocene. In addition, we present new information for C. zarza, expanding its geographic range across the southeastern Andes and the Kutukú and Cóndor cordilleras, amending its definition and diagnosis, and offering new information on its natural history and extinction risk. We also discuss the taxonomic status of Ecuadorian populations reported as C. huilensis and conclude that they are C. muelleri based on their close phylogenetic relationships and morphological similarity to samples of C. muelleri from Peru. Centrolene huilensis is a valid species and not closely related to C. muelleri.
Les conférences familiales entre professionnels : un outil de prise de décision collective
Authors: Sondaz Aline , Lombardot Esther
Published: July 2024

Soucieux de communiquer et développer les conférences familiales, une équipe de coordinatrices et porteurs de projet des conférences familiales en Ardèche, se lancent dans une nouvelle expérimentation : l’utilisation de la dynamique des conférences familiales comme prise de décision collective entre professionnels, au sein de la collectivité. Lors d’une journée particulière de sensibilisation aux conférences familiales, destinée aux cadres chargés de l’action médico-sociale sur le département, deux conférences familiales entre professionnels sont mises en place. Le processus des conférences familiales prend alors une autre dimension, il est utilisé comme un support méthodologique susceptible de pouvoir s’adapter au domaine professionnel au sein de la collectivité. Le cercle familial se constitue des professionnels répartis en deux familles, invités à mettre en œuvre leur propre pouvoir d’agir, sur la question du développement des conférences familiales, dans leur territoire. La mise en place de ces deux conférences familiales dans le respect du processus et à travers une certaine adaptation au cadre institutionnel permet de visualiser la portée décisionnelle et collective ainsi que les perspectives d’actions qui vont en découler. Sous forme de mise en scène et de témoignages, Aline Sondaz et Esther Lombardot, coordinatrices des deux conférences familiales entre professionnels, mettent en mots leur vécu expérientiel.
« He toa taumata rau » Le courage vient de différents aspects de la vie

L’article permet de percevoir une représentation mélanésienne de l’ancestralité. La nature, les personnes sont des vecteurs de la force ancestrale. Quelle perception des rapports humains et de ce qui pose problème, ont les personnes de la Grande Terre (Nouvelle Calédonie) ? Quel est le processus utilisé par les clans et tribus pour trouver des solutions aux aléas de la vie ? À travers une fenêtre clinique, je repère des éléments de ce processus, abordant les questions du partage des savoirs, de leur transmission, des modifications induites par le passage de chacun ? Je rencontre un mode de résolution des désordres, qui contrarient le bien-être de la personne. Je vis une expérience proche du processus « des conférences familiales ». J’enregistre et retranscris des échanges avec les mélanésiens qui m’ont acceptée, accueillie 8 ans au début des années 2000. Je vais à la rencontre des « savoirs magiques », les leurs, en oubliant les « savoir-faire », les nôtres.
Conférence familiale et processus clinique : quand une conférence familiale ne va pas jusqu’à son terme
Authors: Kawczak Déborah
Published: July 2024

Le champ du travail social nous pousse à toujours plus de recherche et de créativité afin d’innover dans les réponses et les outils proposés aux personnes et à leur entourage. Il s’agit aujourd’hui d’accompagner chacun selon sa situation, aux plus près des besoins définis et des objectifs envisagés. Qui mieux que la personne au cœur de l’accompagnement peut faire cette évaluation et engager un processus de changement ? C’est dans cette perspective que le pouvoir d’agir est redonné à chacun et que les conférences familiales se développent sur notre territoire. Les bénéfices en sont multiples et inattendus, pas forcément là où nous les attendions. Cet article relate ainsi comment une conférence familiale a été proposée à une jeune fille et ses parents dans l’objectif explicite de travailler les relations familiales et a eu comme effet de travailler l’implicite souffrant. À travers le récit d’un exemple concret, nous observons comment la conférence familiale est avant tout un processus qui s’engage dès le départ et se développe pendant la phase de préparation. Le pouvoir d’agir est donné à la personne dès la proposition de la conférence familiale, puisque c’est elle qui décide ou non de s’engager, et agit ainsi avant tout à un niveau symbolique. Le message envoyé implicitement à l’inconscient est que la personne a concrètement le pouvoir de changer les choses, de manière sécurisée et accompagnée. Ici, l’espace transitionnel créé par la phase de préparation de la conférence a fourni les conditions d’une réflexion psychique opérante. Les processus psychiques sont alors à l’œuvre dans l’ombre tandis que le processus de changement engagé produit des résultats imprévus. Les enjeux psychiques inconscients ont été mis au travail de manière implicite.
Marraine de conférence, pionnière en son territoire
Authors: Popineau Élisabeth , Alföldi Francis
Published: July 2024

Le parrain, la marraine joue un rôle spécifique car l’idée première de la conférence familiale surgit dans son esprit. L’origine et la définition du terme font l’objet d’une discussion, entre l’influence du jargon professionnel et la recherche d’une proximité avec la culture populaire. Élisabeth, cadre dans un service de protection de l’enfance partage avec le lecteur son expérience en tant que marraine des premières conférences familiales réalisées par le Département du Lot-et-Garonne, en partenariat avec l’association des Citoyens coordinateurs de conférences familiales , et son coordinateur bénévole : Francis Alföldi. Élisabeth relate sa découverte des conférences familiales, son engagement dans la formation de coordinatrice et son implication en tant que marraine dans le lancement de l’expérimentation dans le département 47. Francis retrace ensuite la démarche qu’il a initiée en 2021 en vue d’implanter la pratique des conférences familiales en territoire lot-et-garonnais, un parcours complexe, semé d’obstacles et qui finit par produire ses fruits. Élisabeth évoque l’intérêt des conférences familiales dans le cas des enfants placés, elle retrace la capacité étonnante du premier enfant qui s’est engagé dans le processus, une appropriation puissante, immédiate et persistante, depuis le début au temps de la préparation, jusqu’à la réunion de suivi en fin de processus. L’article est clôturé par un dialogue entre la marraine et le coordinateur qui fait la synthèse de ce qui s’est avéré le plus marquant pour la marraine lors de cette expérience fondatrice.
L’honneur : un concept important pour l’éthique d’aujourd’hui
Authors: Lehmkühler Karsten
Published: July 2024

Nous observons actuellement un retour du concept d’honneur, en éthique philosophique comme en éthique théologique. L’article présente d’abord le concept de reconnaissance , en s’appuyant sur la recherche d’Axel Honneth, avant de s’intéresser à la spécificité de la notion d’honneur , notamment dans la pensée d’Anthony Cunningham. Finalement, la réflexion porte sur le rôle de la notion d’honneur en théologie . Cette notion exprime le désir profond de pouvoir se percevoir soi-même comme une personne intègre, et d’être reconnu et estimé comme une telle personne, de la part des autres. Cette quête d’honneur peut être comprise comme un des « droits de la vie naturelle » de l’être humain. Dans la justification, Dieu reconstitue l’honneur du pécheur, malgré les échecs de sa vie personnelle.
