Authors: Zhovtonog Olga , Ryzhova Kateryna , Zubko Anastasia
Published: December 2021

The development of an integrated state policy for the restoration of the irrigation and the implementation of appropriate institutional changes and the introduction of new financial and economic mechanisms for its sustainable operation. Institutional changes in irrigation management are becoming the main condition for attracting investment in restoration and modernisation of irrigation infrastructure. Existing developments in the transformation of irrigation management in Ukraine require assessment and alignment with the realities of existing agriculture practice and the state of formation of the general water policy of Ukraine in recent years and also taking into account other reforms, such as land reform and decentralization in rural management. The aim of the research was to adapt the methodological principles of irrigation management transformation to modern conditions of agricultural production and directions of reforming water resources management and water infrastructure (the main state water management and reclamation infrastructure and on – farm irrigation systems). To select a sustainable model of institutional reform in the management of irrigated systems in Ukraine, systems analysis and the method of scenario planning and indicative comprehensive assessment of scenarios is proposed. Based on the use of PEST and SWOT-analysis of general socio-economic and political conditions, the state of modern agricultural production and the use of irrigation, three most probable scenarios of irrigation reform are proposed and an analysis of benefits and risks for each of them were conducted. A method of comparative indicative assessment of different scenarios for the implementation of institutional reform has been developed, which characterizes the efficiency of water use and irrigated agriculture in the creation of new institutions and risks to ensure quality services for water users.

Masson’s Tumor-Case Report
Authors: Burguêz Daniela
Published: December 2021

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia or Masson’s tumor is a rare benign vascular pathology. It mainly affects the lower limbs and is not related to the gender or age of the patients. Evaluation by clinical history and imaging exams can be confused with other soft tissue tumors. The purpose of this article is to describe a case attended at a university hospital in Porto Alegre, Brazil. In the present study, the authors report a case of a 54-year-old male patient with the presence of nodulation on the back of the right foot. After inconclusive biopsy, the treatment of choice was surgical resection of the tumor with free margins. Anatomopathological study of the surgical specimen was compatible with Masson’s tumor. A 6-month follow-up did not show any recurrence of the lesion. With this case, the authors wish to highlight this pathology among the differential diagnoses for soft tissue tumors.

Biografía del Prof Dr. Ramachandran
Authors: Losana Alejandro
Published: December 2021

En la actualidad, Vilawanur S.Ramachandran, es un neurólogo destacado en los campos de la conducta y de la psicofísica, es profesor adjunto de biología en el instituto Salk de Estudios Biológicos, profesor en el departamento de psicología y neurociencias en la Universidad de California y director del “Center for Brain and Cognition”. 

Ramachandran, empezó sus primeros trabajos  sobre la percepción de la visión, pero realmente es conocido por sus experimentos en neurología de la conducta, los cuales, a pesar de su aparente “poca complejidad”, han causado mucho impacto y han trascendido cambiando nuestra forma de entender el cerebro.

Fue nombrado por la revista Newsweek miembro de "El Club del Siglo", refiriéndose a que es una de las "100 personas más destacadas a las que seguir" en el siglo 21. Ha sido galardonado por múltiples  instituciones, entre ellas destaca la medalla de Ariens Kappers, de la Real Academia de Artes y Ciencias de los Países Bajos.

Ramachandran se ha volcado en el estudio de la percepción visual y en el campo de la neurología, específicamente dirigido a explicar síndromes neurológicos. Lleva publicados hasta la fecha aproximadamente 180 artículos científicos, y es el autor del conocido libro “Fantasmas en el Cerebro”. 

Usando equipos de muy baja tecnología, ha sido capaz de dar respuestas a cuestiones fundamentales sobre funciones cerebrales. Al comienzo de la década de los 90, Ramachandran se volcó en su proyecto más conocido, denominado la caja espejo. Cuando un brazo es amputado, y pese a no existir ya el miembro, sigue habiendo dolor (dolor del miembro fantasma), el problema no está en el brazo, sino en la representatividad de éste que tenemos en la corteza cerebral. Con ayuda de la caja espejo, Ramachandran fue capaz de influir directamente en dicha área que se comporta de forma disfuncional.

Seismic design of NPP structures taking into account foundation slab compliance
Authors: Korotkov V. A. , Yugai T. Z.
Published: December 2021

The present article proposes a mathematical method for factoring in the compliance of foundation slabs in NPP structures under dynamic loading. In many cases, such an approach allows the analysis results to be significantly improved, whereas sometimes it is simply a necessary part of the procedure, i.e., when structures having “detached” exterior walls are exposed to an air shock wave generated by an aircraft crash.

The presented method applies soil springs and dampers as per ASCE 4-16, specially distributed along the foundation slab bottom of a building.

The conclusion presents the results of calculating the integral characteristics of soil springs and dampers according to the realistic (saddle-shaped) law of their distribution along the foundation slab bottom of a typical building.

Authors: Sánchez Pons Mercedes , Sanesi Bigagli Duccio
Published: December 2021

La importancia de diferenciar los tipos de pinturas que utilizan silicatos como aglutinantes es una necesidad cada vez más evidente en el ámbito de la conservación. Frente al amplio estudio de estos materiales en sus usos industriales, llama la atención la escasez de investigaciones sobre la caracterización y evolución de su uso en el campo artístico, tanto de los productos comerciales, como de las recetas de particulares, así como la ausencia de patrones de análisis que permitan tanto su identificación, como la evaluación de proceso de envejecimiento e interacción con los demás materiales que constituyen el mural. Con este estudio se dan los primeros pasos para el reconocimiento tipológico, en relación a la época de ejecución y con la evaluación de las opciones que ofrece el análisis estratigráfico y la espectrometría infrarroja FT-IR ATR, tanto en muestras de laboratorio como en pinturas murales procedentes del área valenciana.

Factor analysis of cargo river transportation recovery on the Unified deep-water system of Russia
Authors: Zheleznov Sergey V. , Lipatov Igor V. , Lisin Alexander A. , Urtmintsev Yuriy N.
Published: December 2021

In the second half of the XX century, Russian river transport was actively developing, and by 1990 the volume of cargo transportation reached 580 million tons. Now in the 20s of the XXI century, the volume of river traffic has decreased almost fivefold. There has been a redistribution of transportation between modes of transport: the shares of rail and river modes of transport have decreased, the shares of road and pipeline have increased. From the point of view of public interests, the existing distribution of traffic between modes of transport is not rational. The volume of production in the economy of the Russian Federation has fully recovered, but the growth of river traffic does not occur due to the redistribution of traffic between other modes of transport. The article discusses the reasons for a significant decrease in the share of river transport in the total volume of transport services and suggests measures to restore the position of inland waterway transport.

The Ceiling cleaning process is one of the tedious tasks ever which involves removing algae, mold, lichen, dust, and moss from the surface. Cleaning of the roof becomes very difficult when the height of the roof is very high also an excess human effort is required which also makes the labor feel discomfort, in addition to muscle pain. By considering all the above-discussed difficulties, we have developed a concept of a semi-automatic ceiling cleaning machine that is capable of cleaning dirt, grime, algae, etc. on the ceiling. Enabling the machine in accessing hard-to-reach areas on the ceilingsand at higher altitudes. To make the controlling of the machine user-friendly an electric drive is incorporated, such that a person with less technical knowledge can access it with high accuracy. The power source for the entire operation is provided with the help of a battery which is internally installed in the setup. As an added advantage, the multi-head system is implanted, using this our setup can be used as a traditional brush head, and by changing the vacuum head, the setup is capable of performing dust collection operations using vacuum pressure. To make a machine which will take care of the safety of persons, save time and also shouldn't damage false ceiling structure. This method of ceiling cleaning can be used in hotels, offices, etc. which will give a more appealing look. This method is suitable for small, medium as well as large-scale applications.

Kapsayıcı Büyümenin Bir Unsuru Olarak “Üretken İstihdam” Kavramı ve Türkiye Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme
Authors: ÖZGÜN Fergül
Published: December 2021

Büyümenin sürdürülebilir ve kapsayıcı olması gerektiği, kalkınma politikalarının vurguladığı temel noktalardan biri haline gelmiştir. Sosyal, kurumsal ve çevresel faktörleri de dikkate alan bir büyüme sürecine ihtiyaç vardır. Bu ihtiyaç doğrultusunda kapsayıcı büyüme hedefi ön plana çıkmış ve politika yapıcıların öncelikli hedeflerinden biri olmuştur. Kapsayıcı büyüme anlayışına göre büyüme, sadece mal ve hizmet üretimindeki artışa odaklanarak ekonomik çerçeve ile sınırlı kalmamalıdır. Kapsayıcı büyüme, çok sayıda unsuru içinde barındıran geniş bir kavramdır. Çalışmanın temel amacı, söz konusu unsurlardan biri olan üretken istihdam üzerine odaklanarak üretken istihdamın hangi göstergeler yardımıyla ele alınabileceğini ve bu göstergelerin Türkiye’de zaman içerisinde nasıl değiştiğini açıklamaktır. Literatürdeki çalışmalar doğrultusunda belirlenen ve üretken istihdamı yansıtan bazı temel göstergelerin seyri incelendiğinde, Türkiye’de özellikle bilgi yoğun faaliyetlerdeki istihdam düzeyinin, iş gücü verimliliğindeki artış oranının ve çalışılan saat başına düşen GSYİH oranının yetersiz olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca çalışan yoksulluğu ile mücadeleye daha fazla önem verilerek çalışan yoksulların oranı azaltılmalıdır.
Principles of monetary system reform in Russia in the XIX century. (To the 150th anniversary of the memory of N. I. Turgenev)
Authors: Nazarova Irina
Published: December 2021

The purpose of the study is to characterize the Russian model of monetary circulation during the transition from pre-capitalist forms of economy to a relatively developed capitalism in the late XIX century. The paper provides the analysis of theoretical ideas on the specifics of metal, paper and credit instruments of circulation. The key principles of the Russian model of monetary circulation are formulated in the programs of statesmen (M. M. Speransky, E. F. Kankrin, S. Yu. Witte), in the works of economists who presented alternative concepts of money, the theoretical provisions of which formed the conceptual «core» of the new monetary system. The article reveals the features of quantitative approach of N. I. Turgenev, who was the first to analyze the factors of inflation development associated with issue of banknotes, and
possible scenarios of monetary reform aimed at its mitigation. The author identifies fundamental differences in the methods of reforming Russia’s monetary system in 1839-1843 and 1895-1897, considers the characteristic features of the new system of «state credit money», the concept introduced by M. M. Speransky, and the criteria for its stabilization. He then shows that the concept of «state credit money» arose at the intersection of the interests of market and state economy and reveals the role of state and commercial institutions in forming a new model of monetary circulation. The paper reveals the specifics of the domestic monetary system during the transition to capitalist production. The study contributes to the development of the theory of money, as it shows the relationship between the evolution of national economic system, the model of monetary circulation and the instruments of state regulation of the market situation. The author concludes that the changes that occurred in the theories of money are a reflection of changes in the monetary system itself and state monetary policy during the periods of economic transformation.
On the tradition of teaching basic economic theory at Moscow University: past, present, future
Authors: Antipina Olga , Miklashevskaya Nina
Published: December 2021

The article examines the tradition of teaching economic theory at Moscow University since the late 19th to the early 21st century through basic textbooks, which reflect the specificity, theoretical and practical problems of the corresponding historical periods. The narrative proposed shows the emergence of innovative textbooks that embody the breakthroughs in both the subject and method of economic theory and the methodology for its teaching. Apprehension of students and recognition of colleagues have become well-deserved attributes of manuals by A.I. Chuprov, N.A. Tsagolov and Yu.N. Cheremnykh. As well as many others, they absorbed, developed, and passed on from generation to generation the experience of teaching fundamental economic disciplines. Drawing on the «pendulum principle» widely used in the research of various intellectual thoughts, the authors show the main features of the new generation of textbooks that will be in demand by students and teachers shortly. While maintaining consistency in reflecting economic reality, the new manuals should meet the requirements of digital economy, such as fundamental and, at the same time, practical orientation of students. According to the authors, basic courses and textbooks on economic theory will be more interactive while their content expansion will occur due to behavioral aspects at both micro- and macrolevels. That will allow students to learn the principles of mainstream and alternative theoretical approaches to solving urgent practical problems.
Possibilities and limitations of the use of bankruptcy prediction models for insolvency prevention
Authors: Lvova Olga
Published: December 2021

The paper provides the solution to the problem of an integrated classification of existing bankruptcy prediction based on the content analysis of 270 relevant foreign and Russian publications issued within a period of 1910-2020. The author identifies two main groups of models– normative and positive, with the latter categorized into expert, mixed and objective including traditional statistical models and artificial intelligent techniques; and considers the specific features of certain predicting models, their advantages and disadvantages. He then reveals the economic content of such models and the set of ratios applied for identifying company’s financial distress with the following conclusions: approaches to the variables selection are rarely justified, indicators are usually borrowed from previous models or generated automatically by the database configuration; the accounting approach to bankruptcy forecasting based on financial ratios prevails and has serious limitations for Russian companies; the most significant market, value and qualitative variables indicating a decline in the business financial stability are highlighted. Significant limitations of the general use of bankruptcy prediction models for making decisions aimed at insolvency prevention are identified: the inability to anticipate the impact of informal factors that are irregular, unable to extrapolate, and affect companies in different ways; the need to take into account the economic conditions of the national economy, financial reporting standards, and the level of availability of diverse data; the impossibility of creating a universal indicative basis to identify decline of sustainability of any business due to the high volatility of operating conditions in Russia. Bayesian methods and nowcasting, as well as the development of forecasting models for certain industries, are promising areas for the development of modern approaches to bankruptcy prediction, but the fundamental activity for preventing insolvency is not forecasting by models, but the implementation of continuous monitoring of the overall business performance in relation to influencing market, operational, investment, financial, managerial and organizational factors, taking into account significant qualitative variables.
Cluster policy and the innovative activity of industrial enterprises
Authors: Fedorov Sergey
Published: December 2021

The purpose of the article is to assess the possibility of using cluster policy in Russia’s industry as an instrument for developing dynamic competition (encouraging innovation activity). Drawing on the results of a detailed systematic review of the cluster theory, the author identifies the reason for its weak operationality: an implicit premise on entrepreneur’s passive role in the innovation process. He then attempts to remove this premise by explaining the motives of company's behavior through a modified product variety model which is tested on empirical data from the U.S. and Russia. The results of testing show that at similar level of economic activity the geographical concentration of industrial enterprises in a cluster contributes to the intensification of innovation processes. A relatively more competitive behavior of firms in a cluster is explained through the theory of industrial markets and new institutional economic theory. The analysis concludes with valuable recommendations for economic policy.

Authors: Koshanov Amanjol , Chulanova Zaure
Published: December 2021

The efficiency of economic development in the context of globalization and international integration is largely determined by the human capital accumulated and realized in the country. Modern science-intensive technologies require highly skilled specialists, engineers, and workers of technical professions. This becomes possible when using human capital of a new qualitative level, which makes it necessary to solve a number of methodological problems in terms of qualitative changes in the process of its formation. The aim of the study is to analyze the main approaches to the assessment of human capital and to develop proposals for its most objective assessment at various levels of manifestation — individual, micro- and macroeconomic. The article discusses the main methods for evaluating human capital: retrospective (based on the costs of its production) and perspective (based on income derived from the use of this capital). The proposed indicators of the qualitative state of human capital are aimed at its assessment from a new perspective, taking into consideration current global trends in the formation of innovative economy and digitalization.

Sau khi phẫu thuật cắt u được làm xét nghiệm mô bệnh học, nhuộm hóa mô miễn dịch TFE3(+), CD10(+), CK7(-) chẩn đoán: UTBM tế bào thận có đột biến TFE3/Xp11.2. Bệnh nhân ổn định, ra viện sau 2 tuần. Tái khám sau hai tháng không phát hiện u tái phát hay di căn.

ABSTRACT

RENAL CELL CARCINOMA ASSOCIATED WITH XP11.2 TRANSLOCATION FACTORE3 GENE FUSION: A CHILD CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIEW

Renal cell carcinoma is a rare malignancy, accounting for only 2 - 6% of renal malignancies in children. Renal cell carcinoma associated with Xp11.2 translocation/TFE3 gene fusion is a subgroup of renal cell carcinoma, often with a more severe prognosis than other groups of renal cell carcinoma. We report on a 10 - year - old child was admitted to the hospital because of abdominal painand a left kidney tumor. After tumor resection, histopathological examination, immunohistochemical staining was positive for TFE3, CD10, negative for CK7, diagnosis renal cell carcinoma associated with Xp11.2 translocation factor E3 gene fusion. Two weeks after surgery, the patient was stable and discharged from the hospital. Re - examination after two months did not detect tumor recurrence or metastasis.

Key word: Renal cell carcinoma, TFE3, Xp11.2 translocation.

Published: December 2021

Background: Brain natriuretic peptide is a cardiac hormone secreted from the left ventricular myocardium due to ventricular expansion and volume overload. A recent study shows that small VSD will have risk of ventricular dysfunction in adulthood. Another complications such as endocarditis, congestive heart failure, aortic regurgitation, arrhythmia also we should be aware. Evaluations of the plasma B-type natriuretic peptide level (NT pro BNP) are currently being considered as methods to identify the possible presence of ventricular dilation in small VSD.
Objective: To evaluate the change in plasma B-type natriuretic peptide after transcatheter closure of VSD.
Methods: A pretest-posttest design was conducted on VSD patients before and after transcatheter closure. Plasma B-type natriuretic peptide level were measured before and 30 days after the transcatheter closure of VSD.
Result: A total of 32 peri membranous VSD patients were included in this study with 62.5 % female patients (n=20) and 37.5 % male patients (n=12). A significant decrease was observed in the median NT pro BNP level when the level before closure of 1.08 (0.74 – 3.47) ng/ml was compared to the level after closure of 0.91 (0.68 – 2.07) ng/ml (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Significant decreases in NT pro BNP level are seen in small VSD patients 30 days after transcatheter closure. Patients with small peri membranous VSD are generally considered to need occlusion for their childhood defect.

BACKGROUND: Primary data regarding sepsis patients in Indonesia, especially in Denpasar, are still limited in number in reporting. The lack of information about sepsis made the authors interested in conducting this study.

AIM: The aim of the study was to obtain more in-depth information about the profile of sepsis patients treated in Sanglah Hospital, Denpasar.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a cross-sectional descriptive research. Target population in this study are data on patient registers that are included in the inclusion criteria from June 1, 2019 to June 30, 2021, at intensive care unit Sanglah Hospital, Denpasar. The variables in this study included: Demographic conditions such as age, gender, and address, qSOFA score, comorbidities, ventilator, and patient’s outcome (survival or non-survival).

RESULTS: A total samples were 173 patients. The average age of patients in this study was 54 years old with 56.6% male and 32.9% lived in Denpasar. Patients suspected of having early sepsis had a qSOFA 0 score of 35.3%, qSOFA 1 was 33.5%, qSOFA 2 was 23.7%, and qSOFA 3 was 7.5%. Patients with sepsis and suspected sepsis with comorbidities were 96% and 79.8% of patients were on a ventilator. The mortality rate in this study was 67.1%.

CONCLUSION: These primary data hopefully become references for the future research.

Authors: Lahey Zachary , Talamas Elijah , Masner Lubomir , Johnson Norman F.
Published: December 2021

The genus Alfredella Masner & Huggert is revised. Alfredella tasmanica Masner & Huggert is redescribed, Al. teres (Buhl), comb. nov. is transferred to Alfredella from Amitus Haldeman, and Al. auriel Lahey, sp. nov. (New South Wales, Tasmania) and Al. mephisto Lahey, sp. nov. (Western Australia) are described as new. The genus Masnerium Polaszek, syn. nov. is treated as a junior synonym of Amitus, and its type species, M. wellsae Polaszek, is transferred to Amitus as Am. wellsae (Polaszek), comb. nov. The relationship between Alfredella and morphologically similar genera is discussed, and a key is provided to distinguish between Aleyroctonus Masner & Huggert, Alfredella, and Amitus.
La grossesse, un commencement effacé
Authors: Allain-Dupré Brigitte
Published: December 2021

L’auteur développe une réflexion sur l’irreprésentable de la grossesse dans la peinture de la Renaissance en interrogeant ce qui aujourd’hui pourrait en être les séquelles. Les interdits liés au concile de Trente seraient toujours d’une certaine actualité, mais les travaux actuels sur la vie psychique de la femme enceinte à travers la PMA permettent de mettre au jour les problématiques mortifères liées paradoxalement au fait de donner la vie.
À l’article de la mort
Authors: Dallot Christine
Published: December 2021

L’auteure explore l’élaboration de Michel de M’Uzan concernant les mouvements psychiques des abords de la mort, notamment celui de la figure du « jumeau paraphrénique » qu’elle discute au regard de sa propre clinique et de ses références au motif du double que Jung a examiné. Elle interroge ce qui, au cœur du mourir, relève de la manifestation des différentes facettes de l’archétype du soi, expérience qui apparaît telle la tentative d’une ultime mise au monde de soi-même.
Malaise dans la sociologie globale
Authors: Roudometof Victor , Albert Nicole G.
Published: December 2021

La sociologie est née parallèlement à la modernisation occidentale ; ses principales positions héritées de l’ère classique portent sur la modernité et son impact sur les sociétés nationales. Après la décolonisation, la modernisation du « Tiers-Monde » a ouvert la voie à la notion de globalisation. La sociologie de la globalisation est une spécialité actuelle au sein des associations américaines et européennes de sociologie. La promesse d’une sociologie globale est à l’ordre du jour de l’Association internationale de sociologie depuis au moins 1990. À un niveau plus profond, la sociologie globale exige de ne pas penser le rôle de concepts fondamentaux tels que la modernité, la religion ou la société par rapport à leurs origines occidentales. Les études globales et la sociologie postcoloniale, deux des domaines de recherche les plus connus qui revendiquent une visée globale, sont examinées afin de déterminer si elles fournissent des ressources conceptuelles adéquates pour la sociologie globale. Si les programmes de recherche de ces deux disciplines offrent des perspectives prometteuses, l’enquête suggère que toutes deux souffrent d’importants inconvénients. La tradition sociologique se trouve aujourd’hui dans une impasse ; la fragmentation peut persister, mais d’autres possibilités existent également. Aucune solution de grande ampleur n’est peut-être possible. Une sociologie véritablement mondiale pourrait finalement émerger des interprétations originales qui se développent à partir de parcours historiques non occidentaux.
Disséquer les liens entre le global et le local : l’exemple des Philippines, État-nation néolibéral
Authors: Lindio-McGovern Ligaya , Albert Nicole G.
Published: December 2021

Le projet de mondialisation néolibérale, qui consiste à étendre et à maintenir le capitalisme à l’échelle mondiale, nécessite la création d’États-nations néolibéraux qui intégreront son idéologie, ses pratiques et ses structures politiques. En ce sens, l’État-nation néolibéral constitue un site conceptuel approprié pour examiner le lien entre le local et le global dans la dynamique du capitalisme mondial. En prenant les Philippines comme exemple, l’article examine les différents facteurs ou dimensions qui ont fait des Philippines un État-nation néolibéral, depuis l’époque coloniale jusqu’aux structures supranationales qui exercent un contrôle externe sur l’économie politique philippine : le pouvoir mondial des sociétés transnationales, le FMI, l’impérialisme américain et chinois, y compris l’aide militaire américaine qui soutient la militarisation et la contre-insurrection contre les mouvements remettant en question le programme néolibéral des régimes passés et actuels. Enfin, l’article considère les répercussions que les mouvements antimondialisation peuvent avoir sur le changement d’orientation politique et sur les stratégies de résistance mondiale.
« Une nouvelle loi de la terre ». Cosmopolitisme, communauté d’adhésion et amor mundi
Authors: Muñoz Sánchez María Teresa , Rollet Brigitte
Published: December 2021

Dans cet article, je plaide en faveur d’une idée de l’humanité comme communauté d’adhésion enracinée dans la condition ontologique de la pluralité humaine et dans le sentiment d’amour du monde, ou amor mundi . Pour atteindre cet objectif, je m’appuie sur les catégories d’action politique et de monde-en-commun et revendique la proposition arendtienne de construction du monde pour penser notre identité en tant que membres d’une humanité respectant la pluralité. Dans un second temps, je présente la conception kantienne du jugement réfléchissant qui me permet de définir l’humanité comme une communauté d’adhésion liée par le sentiment d’amour pour le monde.
La race, quelle race ?
Authors: Rosental Paul-André
Published: December 2021

L’article analyse le commentaire du juriste Paul Esmein (1886-1966) sur le Code de la famille de 1939, en se centrant sur la place qu’il donne à des notions clés des années 1930 : la protection (ou la défense) de la race, mais aussi l’esprit français, le génie français, la communauté française et l’âme française. Elle décompose les acceptions hygiénistes, eugénistes et proprement raciales de ces expressions, en les rattachant à la sensibilité biopolitique de l’époque, travaillée notamment par les idéologies nataliste et familialiste, et par l’opposition entre ruraux et citadins. Sur cette base, l’article conclut sur la façon dont des élites conservatrices ont pu souscrire à la mise en place d’un droit du travail et d’un système d’assurances sociales puis, à la Libération, de Sécurité sociale.
Réalité et transformation des « pratiques de relations commerciales japonaises » : le cas de l’architecture modulaire
Authors: Shimizu Makiko , Serverin Simon , Takamura Gakuto
Published: December 2021

Il est couramment soutenu que les relations commerciales japonaises entre les entreprises et leurs fournisseurs diffèrent de celles des États-Unis et de l’Europe (relations maintenues sur le long terme, contrats formels peu détaillés, accords modifiés avec souplesse, litiges judiciaires évités). Contrairement à cette théorie conventionnelle, notre hypothèse est que cette pratique a changé depuis les années 1990. Mais ce changement n’est pas intervenu de la même manière dans toutes les industries. La variable principale réside dans le fait qu’elles sont passées ou non, ou plus ou moins, d’un produit conçu selon un modèle intégral à un produit conçu sous forme modulaire. Afin de tester cette hypothèse de modularisation, nous avons mené 17 entretiens avec des hommes d’affaires dans les industries automobiles, électriques et d’intégration de systèmes. Les résultats montrent que si l’hypothèse est validée dans une certaine mesure, elle ne peut pas clarifier complètement certains points.
