L’aide à la procréation en dehors du cadre légal et médical français : quels enjeux aujourd’hui ?
Authors: Rozée Virginie , de La Rochebrochard Élise
Published: October 2021

La loi de bioéthique a été révisée en 2021 pour tenir compte des avancées sociétales et médicales, notamment en matière d’aide médicale à la procréation (AMP). Un des objectifs était de limiter les recours à l’AMP qui se font en dehors du cadre légal et médical français. Comparativement à d’autres pays européens, la législation française reste néanmoins restrictive et ces recours pourraient perdurer. Pour mieux comprendre la situation et anticiper les évolutions, l’Ined lance l’enquête AMP-sans-frontières pour étudier la diversité des expériences et pratiques de l’aide à la procréation.
Les méthodes mixtes pour la science politique
Authors: Aguilera Thomas , Chevalier Tom
Published: October 2021

Les méthodes mixtes, c’est-à-dire l’articulation d’une méthode quantitative et d’une méthode qualitative dans une même recherche, sont particulièrement mises en avant depuis quelques années. En France, bien que plusieurs recherches empiriques les mobilisent, les travaux de science politique ignorent largement les avancées méthodologiques en la matière, et notamment la littérature en langue anglaise sur les «  mixed methods  ». Dans cet article, nous retraçons l’émergence de cette riche littérature pour en montrer les apports et les limites pour la science politique. Nous proposons ainsi une typologie des stratégies de méthodes mixtes visant à expliciter les fonctions attribuées à chaque mode d’articulation, composée de huit stratégies : contextualisation, systématisation, généralisation, confirmation, enrichissement, complexification, triangulation et complémentarité.
L’apport des méthodes mixtes à l’évaluation
Authors: Pin Clément , Barone Carlo
Published: October 2021

L’article présente l’apport des méthodes mixtes à partir d’une recherche qui avait un double but : concevoir un programme d’action promouvant la lecture parentale en étant adapté au cas de familles défavorisées ; prouver l’existence d’un lien causal entre la mise en œuvre de ce programme et l’amélioration du vocabulaire des enfants. Tout en recourant à un essai aléatoire contrôlé, généralement associé aux méthodes quantitatives, la recherche intègre une composante qualitative à double titre, en amont et en aval. Il s’agit en amont d’affiner les connaissances relatives aux conditions de mise en œuvre et de réception du programme par l’usage d’un « qualitatif instrumentalisé » (stratégie de « systématisation »). L’enquête ethnographique permet en aval d’améliorer la compréhension des processus ayant abouti aux impacts mesurés par l’usage d’un « qualitatif autonomisé » (stratégie d’« enrichissement »). Après avoir présenté la stratégie de recherche adoptée en référence à l’approche dite réaliste de l’évaluation, l’article précise l’apport des méthodes mixtes en soulignant les deux types d’apports de l’enquête de terrain à l’expérimentation randomisée.
Du préjugé de couleur au préjugé de race, le cas des Antilles françaises
Authors: Régent Frédéric
Published: October 2021

Alors qu’en mars 1685, le principe d’égalité entre tous les libres de naissance et les affranchis est proclamé, le préjugé de couleur s’est progressivement développé dans les sociétés des colonies françaises au xviii e siècle. Ce processus souhaité par le secrétariat d’État à la Marine et aux Colonies a mis en place trois « couleurs-statut » et un système de ségrégation juridique entre réputés blancs, gens de couleurs libres et esclaves. Aux xvii e et xviii e siècles, le mot race est peu employé par les religieux, les habitants ou les administrateurs des colonies. Toutefois, lorsqu’il est mobilisé, c’est dans sa conception biblique, nobiliaire ou généalogique. Au xix e siècle, dans les anciennes colonies esclavagistes, le mot race est davantage utilisé et tend à se substituer à couleur, tout en décrivant des groupes qui s’inscrivent dans l’héritage de la « couleur-statut ».
Biopolitique et fabrique de la race pendant les Lumières
Authors: Max Nelson William
Published: October 2021

Écrivant sur Saint-Domingue (aujourd’hui Haïti) en 1776, deux hommes liés à l’administration coloniale française, l’ancien gouverneur général Gabriel de Bory et un avocat nommé Michel-René Hilliard d’Auberteuil, ont appelé à une politique d’élevage systématique sélectionnant les personnes selon le critère premier de la couleur de peau et établissant un lien entre les caractères de la race et le statut civique. C’est, nous semble-t-il, la première fois qu’est suggéré de mettre en place des politiques d’élevage sélectif sur les hommes à grande échelle, dans un lieu et à une époque qui existent réellement, contrairement au non-lieu fictionnel de l’utopie, dans le but de faire advenir une nouvelle hiérarchie raciale. Il semble que la période entre 1750 et 1780, en France et dans les colonies atlantiques françaises, constitue un moment de transformations conceptuelles capitales des idées de race et de biopolitique. Une nouvelle compréhension de la malléabilité radicale du corps humain, ainsi que certaines idées sur la reproduction humaine que cette compréhension rend possible, semblent avoir joué un rôle important dans le développement du concept moderne de race. Les propositions de Bory et d’Hilliard d’Auberteuil aident à mettre en lumière cette transformation. En analysant leurs propositions, je souhaite démontrer ici que, au moment même où les conceptions modernes de la race viennent au jour, les deux versants de la dialectique de la race sont déjà présents. Il existe en effet d’emblée une tension fondamentale entre, d’un côté, ceux qui cherchent à augmenter la diversité humaine et « améliorer » les races grâce au métissage, et, de l’autre, ceux qui souhaitent redéfinir la ségrégation reproductive et créer de nouvelles catégories de différentiation.
De la race aux races dans l’Amérique hispanique républicaine (1770-1900)
Authors: Thibaud Clément
Published: October 2021

Lors des révolutions de l’indépendance de l’Amérique espagnole (1810-1825), les nouvelles constitutions libérales et républicaines ont voulu marquer la rupture avec la monarchie et le « système colonial » en récusant la transmission de la dignité (noblesse, offices et charges) et de l’indignité (statuts racialisés) à travers les générations. Elles cherchaient ainsi à détruire juridiquement les fondements généalogiques d’un ancien régime qui avait, en outre-mer, une forte dimension raciale. Les émancipations insistèrent cependant sur la dimension naturelle, supposément raciale, de la citoyenneté. Comment expliquer la contradiction apparente entre élision juridique et recomposition politique de la racialisation ? Le premier temps de l’argumentaire s’attache au polymorphisme des processus de racialisation à la fin de la période coloniale, associés à la « pureté de sang », à la « classe » en tant que catégorie émique ou aux savoirs des Lumières. Le deuxième montre comment la naturalisation des rapports sociaux fut bouleversée par la dynamique révolutionnaire. La conjoncture ouvre de nouveaux espaces pour repenser la racialisation dans un cadre devenu libéral et républicain, comme l’atteste la pensée de Bolívar. La dernière partie cherche à mesure ces transformations postrévolutionnaires des pratiques de racialisation en s’attachant à la mention du statut racialisé ( pardo , negro , indio ) dans les registres de baptême. Du Mexique à l’Uruguay en passant par la Bolivie, on constate la résistance des catégories coloniales et leurs transformations au xix e siècle.
Du monde proto-urbain aux villes mésopotamiennes
Authors: Butterlin Pascal
Published: October 2021

Le propos de cet article est de présenter quelques réflexions synthétiques sur les développements récents des recherches sur l’urbanisation et le développement des villes mésopotamiennes du IV e au I er millénaire avant notre ère. On y envisage tout d’abord les problèmes nouveaux que pose l’identification, au cours des dernières décennies, d’une longue période proto-urbaine, de maturation du phénomène urbain. La deuxième question tient aux problèmes d’échelle et de morphologie des cités mésopotamiennes, beaucoup mieux connus maintenant grâce aux nouvelles techniques de prospection. Enfin, la dimension temporelle du développement urbain est envisagée : la Mésopotamie offre en effet un cadre idéal pour étudier des cycles d’urbanisation entrecoupés de phases catastrophiques de destruction et d’abandon, et la question de la résilience des cités dans la longue durée est posée.
Quelle urbanisation au Levant Nord durant le 3 e millénaire ?
Authors: Nicolle Christophe
Published: October 2021

La fouille des sites du Levant Nord révèle d’importants changements dans l’organisation territoriale et la nature des agglomérations durant le 3 e millénaire. Les villages jusqu’alors cantonnés près des ressources en eau sont remplacés par des agglomérations urbaines fortifiées qui contrôlent et exploitent leurs territoires par l’intermédiaire d’un réseau hiérarchisé d’agglomérations. Les détails de ce mouvement d’urbanisation nous échappent encore. On constate cependant une appropriation des espaces urbains au profit de nouvelles élites. Cette urbanisation se double d’un vaste mouvement de conquête territoriale et du développement de nouveaux modes de production agropastoraux. Cette concomitance des faits résulte de l’émergence d’une aristocratie foncière. Urbanisation et développement agricole sont ici intégrés dans un même processus de transformation.
Les villes de l’Âge du Fer en Syrie : entre traditions et renouveaux
Authors: Dibo Suzanne
Published: October 2021

Au premier millénaire av. J-C., l’histoire de la Syrie est marquée par l’arrivée au pouvoir des nouvelles dynasties Araméennes. Un programme inédit de fondations et de réorganisation des villes préexistantes est amorcé, impliquant certains changements dans le paysage urbain des périodes précédentes. Il est évident que ces traditions urbanistiques sont héritées des villes de l’Âge du Bronze, mais de nouvelles pratiques architecturales révèlent la spécificité des royaumes de l’Âge de Fer. L’objectif de cet article est de revenir sur la morphologie de ces fondations, afin d’en dégager le plan d’urbanisme, son origine et les éléments novateurs qu’il comporte.
Les pièges du plan parcellaire Vasserot
Authors: Fernandez Mathieu , Gribaudi Maurizio
Published: October 2021

Cet article s’interroge sur la nature du « plan parcellaire par îlots » produit à Paris de 1810 à 1836 par Philibert Vasserot et sur son statut en tant que source pour une analyse détaillée des structures morphologiques du Paris pré-haussmannien. Nous simulons grâce aux outils des systèmes d’information géographique les opérations techniques opérées par Vasserot et ses équipes pour l’assemblage des plans d’immeubles dans les limites des îlots, levés par Edme Verniquet (1784-1791) et mis à jour entre 1807 et 1821 par les services du fisc. Nous pouvons alors mesurer les décalages et différences des objets représentés par rapport aux plans d’expropriations produits à partir de la fin des années 1840, très précis et aisément raccordables au cadastre contemporain. Les résultats montrent que plusieurs types d’écueils techniques liés au travail de Vasserot limitent fortement son utilisation pour une reconstitution précise de l’évolution morphologique du bâti parisien. L’article suggère enfin que l’utilisation croisée de plusieurs sources et de méthodes cartographiques adaptées à leur mode de production permettraient d’opérer une lecture riche et précise des plans cadastraux et des tableaux fiscaux qui leur sont reliés.
La réception du concile Vatican II entre théologie et histoire
Authors: Pelletier Denis
Published: October 2021

La controverse nouée en 2005 entre théologiens et historiens, autour de l’analyse du concile Vatican II comme événement ou comme texte du genre littéraire « constitutionnel », relève d’une histoire intellectuelle. Mais elle participe aussi d’une histoire du catholicisme contemporain marquée par les débats qui se succèdent sur la façon de mettre en œuvre l’ aggiornamento . Si la majorité des protagonistes a le souci de donner toute sa validité à un concile vécu comme « de transition » et « pastoral », les uns en font une lecture conservatrice, l’inscrivant dans le prolongement de Vatican I et d’un catholicisme intransigeant, critique de la modernité ; les autres soulignent son caractère radicalement innovateur, tout en relisant à partir des textes conciliaires l’ensemble de l’histoire de la révélation à travers la notion de « signes des temps ». La réception conciliaire devient ainsi un observatoire privilégié pour comprendre l’histoire d’un catholicisme qui se mondialise, dans le contexte d’un écart qui s’approfondit entre le magistère romain et l’évolution des mœurs.
Histoire et religion, entre pratique historiographique, principes épistémologiques et enjeux de sociétés
Authors: Mazel Florian
Published: October 2021

Cet article s’efforce de préciser les défis lancés à l’historien confronté à l’étude des religions ou de faits définis comme religieux. Après une interrogation sur les difficultés posées par un tel objet, il envisage les limites de la notion d’histoire religieuse et expose les principaux fondements épistémologiques et méthodologiques propres à la connaissance historique, qui guident la production d’une vérité spécifique, distincte des autres savoirs sur le religieux comme des passions religieuses de la société.
Histoire et théologie : du conflit au multilatéralisme
Authors: Souletie Jean-Louis
Published: October 2021

Le rapport histoire et théologie qui s’est noué dans la crise moderniste a trouvé une issue momentanée avec la catégorie de la tradition créatrice conçue par M. Blondel. Il a évolué vers une pensée herméneutique qui a influencé l’exégèse critique de la Bible et l’histoire des dogmes sans être encore aujourd’hui totalement reçue. Une situation nouvelle a découlé d’une culture marquée par subjectivation des individus et leur détraditionnalisation. Leur présent est en crise car la recherche de fondement rencontre les sociétés liquides. Une phénoménologie relisant Heidegger sous la forme d’une apocalypse de la vérité reconduirait jusqu’à Paul de Tarse pour réhabiliter le danger comme une puissance d’imagination créatrice nouvelle. À sa suite, l’article suggère que l’anamnèse chrétienne, chez le même Paul, pourrait fournir aux modernes un recours mieux averti à l’histoire.
La disparition de l’histoire ?
Authors: Hartog François
Published: October 2021

« L’histoire » a-t-elle disparu ou bien « une » histoire a disparu ? Celle qui, portée par le temps moderne, a prétendu donner le sens du déploiement de l’expérience des hommes en société dans le temps. Après avoir envisagé les successives mises en question du concept moderne d’histoire, après avoir posé un diagnostic, ce texte cherche à cerner ce que pourrait être une nouvelle condition historique et donc un possible nouveau concept d’histoire, alors même qu’avec l’entrée dans l’anthropocène l’humanité se trouve directement confrontée à des temporalités inédites. Mais rien n’est acquis : à l’évidence, effort continué de lucidité et travail sont à l’ordre du jour.
Les gestes de l’enseignant d’EPS pour réguler l’activité des élèves en classe : analyse et perspectives pour l’intervention en milieu scolaire
Authors: Mayeko Teddy
Published: October 2021

Située au carrefour des approches didactique et clinique, cette recherche s’intéresse aux gestes de régulation mobilisés par un enseignant d’éducation physique et sportive au cours d’une première séquence d’enseignement en tennis de table avec des élèves de collège. Elle a principalement pour but de comprendre les manières dont l’enseignant guide les élèves dans les apprentissages. Les résultats montrent que ce dernier automatise certaines procédures de régulation au fil de ses expériences en classe. Il inscrit son intervention dans une triple logique de diversification (des gestes), de stabilisation (des modalités de régulation jugées efficaces) et de différenciation (des contenus d’enseignement et des formes d’interaction). Ces divers éléments sont constitutifs de son activité, se chevauchent dans le temps et témoignent surtout de sa capacité à réorienter l’activité des élèves en tennis de table. Au-delà, les résultats engagent une discussion sur les conditions de régulation des apprentissages et de différenciation en EPS.

Published: October 2021

This paper deals with the sixth-order Boussinesq equation with fourth-order dispersion term and nonlinear source. By using some ordinary differential inequalities, the conditions on finite time blow-up of solutions are given with suitable assumptions on initial values. Moreover, the upper and lower bounds of the blow-up time are also investigated.
Anisotropic singular double phase Dirichlet problems
Authors: Papageorgiou Nikolaos S. , Rǎdulescu Vicenţiu D. , Zhang Youpei
Published: October 2021

We consider an anisotropic double phase problem with a reaction in which we have the competing effects of a parametric singular term and a superlinear perturbation. We prove a bifurcation-type result describing the changes in the set of positive solutions as the parameter varies on \begin{document}$ \mathring{\mathbb{R}}_+ = (0, +\infty) $\end{document}. Our approach uses variational tools together with truncation and comparison techniques as well as several general results of independent interest about anisotropic equations, which are proved in the Appendix.
Global existence and blowup in infinite time for a fourth order wave equation with damping and logarithmic strain terms
Authors: Pang Yue , Wang Xingchang , Wu Furong
Published: October 2021

We consider the well-posedness of solution of the initial boundary value problem to the fourth order wave equation with the strong and weak damping terms, and the logarithmic strain term, which was introduced to describe many complex physical processes. The local solution is obtained with the help of the Galerkin method and the contraction mapping principle. The global solution and the blowup solution in infinite time under sub-critical initial energy are also established, and then these results are extended in parallel to the critical initial energy. Finally, the infinite time blowup of solution is proved at the arbitrary positive initial energy.

The beta regression model has become a popular tool for assessing the relationships among chemical characteristics. In the BRM, when the explanatory variables are highly correlated, then the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) does not provide reliable results. So, in this study, we propose a new modified beta ridge-type (MBRT) estimator for the BRM to reduce the effect of multicollinearity and improve the estimation. Initially, we show analytically that the new estimator outperforms the MLE as well as the other two well-known biased estimators i.e., beta ridge regression estimator (BRRE) and beta Liu estimator (BLE) using the matrix mean squared error (MMSE) and mean squared error (MSE) criteria. The performance of the MBRT estimator is assessed using a simulation study and an empirical application. Findings demonstrate that our proposed MBRT estimator outperforms the MLE, BRRE and BLE in fitting the BRM with correlated explanatory variables.
Least squares type estimations for discretely observed nonergodic Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes of the second kind

Published: October 2021

We consider the nonergodic Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes of the second kind defined by $ dX_t = \theta X_tdt+dY_t^{(1)}, t\geq 0, X_0 = 0 $ with an unknown parameter $ \theta > 0, $ where $ dY_t^{(1)} = e^{-t}dG_{a_{t}} $ and $ \{G_t, t\geq 0\} $ is a mean zero Gaussian process with the self-similar index $ \gamma\in (\frac{1}{2}, 1) $ and $ a_t = \gamma e^{\frac{t}{\gamma}} $. Based on the discrete observations $ \{X_{t_i}:t_i = i\Delta_n, i = 0, 1, \cdots, n\} $, two least squares type estimators $ \hat{\theta}_n $ and $ \tilde{\theta}_n $ of $ \theta $ are constructed and proved to be strongly consistent and rate consistent. We apply our results to the cases such as fractional Brownian motion, sub-fractional Brownian motion, bifractional Brownian motion and sub-bifractional Brownian motion. Moreover, the numerical simulations confirm the theoretical results.
Branch prioritization motifs in biochemical networks with sharp activation
Authors: Edwards Roderick ,   Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Victoria, P.O. Box 1700 STN CSC, Victoria, BC, V8W 2Y2, Canada, Wood Michelle
Published: October 2021

The Precursor Shutoff Valve (PSV) has been proposed as a motif in biochemical networks, active for example in prioritization of primary over secondary metabolism in plants in low-input conditions. Another branch prioritization mechanism in a biochemical network is a difference in thresholds for activation of the two pathways from the branch point. It has been shown by Adams and colleagues that both mechanisms can play a part in a model of plant metabolism involving Michaelis-Menten kinetics [1]. Here we investigate the potential role of these two mechanisms in systems with steeper activation functions, such as those involving highly cooperative reactions, by considering the limit of infinitely steep activation functions, as is done in Glass networks as models of gene regulation. We find that the Threshold Separation mechanism is completely effective in pathway prioritization in such a model framework, while the PSV adds no additional benefit, and is ineffective on its own. This makes clear that the PSV uses the gradual nature of activation functions to help shut off one branch at low input levels, and has no effect if activation is sharp. The analysis also serves as a case study in assessing behaviour of sharply-switching open systems without degradation of species.

Circulation and Contacts in Sixteenth Century New Cartography: Spain, Portugal and Italy
Authors: Moreno Madrid José María
Published: October 2021

Cartographic information was highly coveted in sixteenth century Europe, especially when it came from Portugal or Spain. Maps and nautical charts produced in the Iberian Peninsula were loaded with sensitive information about the new lands discovered, which made them the object of desire of rival or curious powers. Faced with this, the Spanish and Portuguese institutions tried to limit the excessive dispersion of cartographic material, using several legislative instruments. In theory, the circulation of cartographic information beyond Iberian imperial boundaries was strictly controlled, so the possibility of leakages or exchanges seemed very unlikely. In practice, both leaks and contact occurred constantly. The objective of this article is to illustrate this idea from the identification and analysis of concrete historical events in which the circulation of cartographic information took place. The chronological framework chosen is the sixteenth century, with Spain, Portugal and Italy as the main sites.
Cartography in dispute: the frontiers of Brazil in Abbé Raynal’s Histoire des Deux Indes
Authors: Ferreira Furtado Junia
Published: October 2021

This article analyzes the frontier line(s) of Brazil proposed by the Portuguese ambassadors (D. Vicente de Sousa Coutinho, D. Rodrigo de Sousa Coutinho, and Luís de Sousa Coutinho, the Viscount of Balsemão), drawn on maps and documents sent to Abbé Raynal when he was preparing the 1780 edition of his famous Histoire des Deux Indes. This was accompanied by an Atlas de Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre, produced by the French geographer Rigobert Bonne. The objective is, in light of the Treaty of Santo Ildefonso, to compare the lines defended by the ambassadors and those which Raynal and Bonne drew on the map of South America in the Atlas, analyzing the geopolitical impacts.
The Schoolwide Enrichment Model
Authors: Reis Sally M. , Renzulli Joseph S.
Published: October 2021

The Schoolwide Enrichment Model is widely implemented as a both an enrichment program used with academically gifted and talented students and as a magnet theme/enrichment approach for all students. The theme of the SEM is to develop the strengths and talents of all students. The SEM provides enriched learning experiences and higher learning standards for all children through three goals: developing talents in all children, providing a broad range of advanced-level enrichment experiences for all students, and providing advanced follow-up opportunities for young people based on their strengths and interests. The SEM focuses on enrichment for all students through high levels of engagement and the use of enjoyable and challenging learning experiences that are constructed around students' interests, and preferred modes of expression.
Constructing Culturally-Authentic Differentiated Access Points Using the Content Imperatives
Authors: Manzone Jessica A. , Nyberg Julia L.
Published: October 2021

The need to create culturally authentic and specific learning experiences is a call to action that all teachers must answer. Current definitions of differentiation either avoid or exclude topics of culture and race. These definitions are incomplete and must be expanded if the needs, interests, abilities, and cultural assets of gifted learners are to be addressed in a classroom. Under this expanded definition, differentiation strategies must be culturally authentic and purposefully integrated into the opportunities provided to gifted learners. It is incumbent upon teachers to reorient differentiation strategies they employ with gifted and advanced learners, so they become culturally authentic and contextually relevant. This chapter provides the reorientation of one differentiation strategy: the content imperatives. This chapter (1) defines the content imperatives, (2) demonstrates how they can be used as the catalyst for honoring the funds of knowledge that students bring into any learning experience, and (3) creates culturally-authentic access points into content for all learners.
Social-Emotional Learning Iterations to Strengthen Programs in India for Gifted Students in Poverty
Authors: Jensen Anabel L. , Leet Cherilyn Gain
Published: October 2021

A nonresidential gifted program for economically disadvantaged students in India (Grades 6 through 12) uses a continuum of services for social emotional learning (SEL) support to prepare students for college admission. The program stands in contrast to the residential gifted schools in India, which have minimal SEL considerations. SEL is deeply integrated with the Sitare Foundation program's design and evaluation by using emotional intelligence assessments and action plans to customize support for its students and staff. During the coronavirus pandemic, SEL training and mentoring of the city coordinators provided resilience models to encourage continued commitment to the program, especially for female gifted students. Three specific examples (student, leader, and coordinators) are presented as illustrations of growth and transformation. Continuous gathering of both qualitative and quantitative SEL data, combined with traditional academic records, is recommended for effective program iterations.
Bridging Academic and Industry Skills via Digital Collaboration
Authors: Madden-Dent Tara
Published: October 2021

As culturally responsive, social-emotional learning (SEL) competencies continue being essential skills in a 21st century workforce, both university and industry will continue placing greater focus on effective training for students and employees to strengthen workforce readiness. The following chapter introduces one example of how Polish Fulbright scholars prepared for a U.S. assignment through a digital training program, taken before participants departed their home country, as a way to support post arrival integration, safety, and success in the U.S. Compared to the control group, research findings from this phenomenological research study indicated that the four-week training program supported increases in self-awareness and self-management skills, social skills and cultural awareness, English communication skills, academic and professional readiness skills, and responsible decision-making skills in the treatment group. This study contributes one new strategy to strengthen internationalization efforts, global leadership skills, and cross-cultural relations.
Digital Transformation Process in Selection and Implementation of an Electronic Document Management System
Authors: Özgür Polat Leyla
Published: October 2021

An electronic document management system (e-DMS) is an information system that allows creating, distributing, filing, storing, searching, destroying, and archiving documents concerning certain criteria and standards as a critical part of every digital transformation. It is known that correspondence processes in public institutions such as universities are time-consuming activities that increase workload and bureaucracy. Therefore, it is a critical issue to select and implement the suitable e-DMS software which systematically supports institutions in managing the documents they produce in their work processes. This chapter provides decision support to the institutional managers for selecting proper software, the preparation process before the application, transformation stages, and the environmental benefits after the implementation of the system are shown with their workflows through an actual application in a university. Digital transformation of the system provides both environmental and social benefits for institutions beside its material benefits such as time and labour.
Vehicle License Plate Recognition With Deep Learning
Authors: Huang Chi-Hsuan , Sun Yu , Fuh Chiou-Shana
Published: October 2021

In this chapter, an AI (artificial intelligence) solution for LPR (license plate recognition) on moving vehicles is proposed. The license plates in images captured with cameras on moving vehicles have unpredictable distortion and various illumination which make traditional machine vision algorithms unable to recognize the numbers correctly. Therefore, deep learning is leveraged to recognize license plate in such challenging conditions for better recognition accuracy. Additionally, lightweight neural networks are chosen since the power supply of scooter is quite limited. A two-stage method is presented to recognize license plate. First, the license plates in captured images are detected using CNN (convolutional neural network) model and the rotation of the detected license plates are corrected. Subsequently, the characters are recognized as upper-case format (A-Z) and digits (0-9) with second CNN model. Experimental results show that the system achieves 95.7% precision and 95% recall at high speed during the daytime.
Factors Affecting Customer Intentions Toward AI-Made Music
Authors: Nghiêm-Phú Bình
Published: October 2021

The purpose of this chapter was to develop and verify a theoretical model to understand the ways that potential customers perceive and act toward AI-made products. The author began the chapter with a review of the existing literature to extract the most fundamental elements, both internal and external to the customers, which can affect their perceptions and behaviours. From there, the author proposed and tested a theoretical model that can explain customer attitudes toward a new type of music: AI-made music. Using data gathered from a young customer sample (n = 219) in Japan, the author found that perceived product/service attributes and customers' personal characteristics had significant impacts on customer purchase intentions, while perceived seller attributes and environment characteristics had not. These findings helped expand the literature on customer attitudes by introducing and investigating an aggregated model on the one hand. They also provided practical support for the commercialization of the AI-made products industry in the future on the other.

THE LEVEL OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THEIR PARENTS
Authors: Khasawneh Mohmmad
Published: October 2021

Emotional intelligence is an important factor in the well-being of students, whether regular students or students with learning disabilities. The category of students with LDs always face challenges to adapt and adjust in society and in the school environment. This study aimed at revealing the emotional intelligence of English language students with learning disabilities in Aseer region. The study sample consisted of (140) students with learning difficulties. To achieve the objectives of the study, the emotional intelligence questionnaire was developed and consisted of (45) items, divided into five areas: knowledge of emotions, emotional management, sympathy, empathy, and social competence. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire was ensured before application and data analysis. The results showed that the overall degree of emotional intelligence among students with learning disabilities was low. The results also found that regular students have higher emotional intelligence than students with LDs. The study recommended developing training programs to develop emotional intelligence for students with learning difficulties, and conducting a descriptive and experimental study dealing with other types of intelligence among students with learning disabilities and other special education categories and comparing them with regular students.
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) as an Alternative Market System: An Appreciation-Based Activist Order of Worth

In the context of constructivist market studies, this research aims to understand how value is calculated in alternative agrifood markets, more specifically in the community-supported agriculture (CSA) market system. Methodologically, this qualitative study was based on observation, document analysis and interviews, and the study subjects were actors from various Brazilian CSA communities. The results showed that the CSA system is based on an activist order of worth (Lindberg & Mossberg, 2019), which affects the value calculations performed by the agents. In addition to calculations present in conventional markets (quantitative, qualitative and collective - Cochoy, 2008), the CSA system fosters a new type of calculation, herein termed appreciation calculation, which considers various social and environmental benefits of the system. Thus, CSA members incorporate appreciation calculation into other calculation methods when making decisions on whether to join and remain in the community. The article contributes to market studies by presenting a peculiar system that challenges the prevailing logic, thereby improving our understanding of how ideological issues are incorporated into market practices.
Decolonial Reflections in Marketing: The Colonialities of Power, Knowledge and Being
Authors: Rodrigues Lais
Published: October 2021

Marketing studies have been focused on hegemonic narratives developed in the Global North. In the field of Marketing, there is a growing interest in the use of critical theories and historical perspectives. The decolonial perspective is presented by the author as a theory that could co-exist with pluralist critical historical studies in Marketing, particularly the Colonialities of Power, Knowledge and Being. The marketing field, particularly critical historical studies, should create an environment favorable to transdisciplinarity and transculturality, going beyond Eurocentric logics and Western paradigms, and establishing dialogues with silenced and marginalizes knowledges and perspectives.
Selvagens Diante do Espelho Eurocêntrico: Marketing como Dispositivo de (Re)Produção e Gestão da Matriz de Poder Colonial
Authors: Reale Getúlio Sangalli , Dalmoro Marlon
Published: October 2021

Apesar de a colonialidade que opera no episteme do marketing ter sido descrita por estudos prévios, é importante reconhecer que o marketing também opera como um dispositivo para (re)produção da própria colonialidade nas práticas cotidianas de gestores e consumidores. Assim, a partir do contexto empírico do futebol e orientado para práticas de gestão de marketing, buscamos compreender como o marketing se constitui como uma ferramenta da (re)produção e gestão da matriz de poder colonial. Para isso, esse artigo é elaborado a partir do diálogo entre a perspectiva dos estudos descoloniais latino-americano e uma experiência etnográfica junto ao Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense. Por meio de dispositivos produzidos pelos gestores, o marketing faz circular uma estética e o desejo por viver uma realidade parecida e distante da nossa própria subjetividade. Nesse processo o marketing trama narrativas e imagens, práticas de relação e arquiteturas que agem, mesmo que com resultados incertos, para construção do consumidor tomador de decisões racionais, com corpos modelados para a fruição pacífica de uma estética europeia de espetáculo de futebol, criando subjetividades colonizadas. Por fim, refletimos como podemos superar a imagem distorcida de selvagens que enxergamos diante do espelho eurocêntrico para construir imagens a partir de uma subjetividade autônoma.
Chamamento às Margens: Propostas Decoloniais na Produção Acadêmica Sobre Consumo, Mercado e Marketing
Authors: Couto Renata , Barros Denise , Hemais Marcus
Published: October 2021

O Fórum Decolonial surgiu a partir da preocupação com a superação de uma tóxica hierarquia de conhecimentos imposta aos pesquisadores e praticantes oriundos de geografias periféricas e da necessidade de criação de espaços onde conhecimentos e interesses periféricos, não hegemônicos e não eurocêntricos possam ser reconhecidos como válidos. Embora tal preocupação seja compartilhada por vários pesquisadores no campo, tínhamos a consciência da dificuldade de engajamento que as estruturas acadêmicas impõem. Em função disso, buscamos criar uma chamada para a comunidade brasileira, em um periódico brasileiro. O aceite da RIMAR em hospedar nosso Fórum foi fundamental porque entendemos que a revista se posiciona na vanguarda da produção de conhecimento ao hospedar análises que desvelam a normalização de questões sistêmicas associadas às colonialidades do poder, do saber e do ser (Quijano, 2007) e que também oferecem alternativas aos modelos tradicionais de se pensar Gestão e Marketing dentro da Academia.

Este estudo investiga a transversalidade/continuidade das políticas públicas voltadas aos estudantes que possuem altas habilidades/superdotação (AH/S). A finalidade foi identificar o fluxo das políticas inclusivas existentes na área de AH/S nas diferentes etapas/níveis de ensino. A metodologia utilizada se deu pela pesquisa documental, com análise descritiva analítica de documentos e de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Foram analisados documentos das políticas públicas dos seguintes níveis: curitibano, paranaense e nacional. Paralelamente, foram entrevistados 14 sujeitos de pesquisa, sendo que alguns deles trabalham com atendimento a superdotados e outros são estudantes com AH/S. Os dados de pesquisa demonstraram uma ruptura na continuidade do atendimento educacional especializado realizado com este público.

FORMAÇÃO CONTINUADA E RESULTADOS NO IDEB: O QUE DIZEM OS QUESTIONÁRIOS CONTEXTUAIS DE DIRETORES E PROFESSORES DO SAEB/2017
Authors: Gomes Francimarcos , Vidal Eloisa
Published: October 2021

O advento de programas e projetos de avaliação de larga escala e a perspectiva da escola como espaço de formação impulsionaram a ressignificação do papel dos profissionais da educação e como a atuação de cada um dos atores contribui para a implementação e melhoria dos indicadores educacionais. O estudo investiga, a partir dos questionários contextuais do Saeb 2017, iniciativas de formação continuada de diretores e professores. De caráter quantitativo, a pesquisa abrange 20 redes escolares municipais cearenses – dez com os maiores e dez com os menores resultados no Ideb Anos Iniciais em 2017. As referências teóricas, além da legislação, se apoiam em Gatti (1998, 2013, 2017), Pizarro; Lopes Junior (2017) e Sousa; Ferreira (2019). Os dados revelam diferenças na oferta entres os municípios de maiores e menores resultados, fragilidade das iniciativas de formação tanto para diretores quanto para professores, e carências de temas de interesse dos docentes.

Published: October 2021

A presença de alunos com deficiência nas classes comuns de ensino tem exigido dos professores formação específica em Tecnologia Assistiva (TA). De 2013 a 2016 a Universidade X, em parceria com o órgão responsável pela Educação Especial em uma cidade da região sudeste, desenvolveu uma pesquisa visando à formação continuada de docentes para atuar nas Salas de Recursos Multifuncionais (SRM). O objetivo do estudo foi descrever as concepções de professoras de SRM do município X acerca da formação continuada recebida em TA. O estudo que empregou metodologia qualitativa foi desenvolvido no X e em algumas SRM. Foram realizas entrevistas com as dezoito professoras de SRM participantes. Além do roteiro de entrevista semiestruturado, utilizou-se diário de campo, gravações de áudio e filmagens. Os resultados apontaram que a formação de professores para atuarem nas SRM com esse alunado é importante para que ocorra a implementação de recursos e serviços de TA.
The Microbial Composition of Penaeid Shrimps’ Hepatopancreas Is Modulated by Hemocyanin

Aquatic organisms have to produce proteins or factors that help maintain a stable relationship with microbiota and prevent colonization by pathogenic microorganisms. In crustaceans and other aquatic invertebrates, relatively few of these host factors have been characterized. In this study, we show that the respiratory glycoprotein hemocyanin is a crucial host factor that modulates microbial composition and diversity in the hepatopancreas of penaeid shrimp. Diseased penaeid shrimp (Penaeus vannamei), had an empty gastrointestinal tract with atrophied hepatopancreas, expressed low hemocyanin, and high total bacterial abundance, with Vibrio as the dominant bacteria. Similarly, shrimp depleted of hemocyanin had mitochondrial depolarization, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and dysregulation of several energy metabolism-related genes. Hemocyanin silencing together with ROS scavenger (N-acetylcysteine) treatment improved microbial diversity and decreased Vibrio dominance in the hepatopancreas. However, fecal microbiota transplantation after hemocyanin knockdown could not restore the microbial composition in the hepatopancreas. Collectively, our data provide, to our knowledge, new insight into the pivotal role of hemocyanin in modulating microbial composition in penaeid shrimp hepatopancreas via its effect on mitochondrial integrity, energy metabolism, and ROS production.
