Authors:   Russian State Social University, Moscow, Russia., Evreeva* O.A. , Bedareva N.I. ,   Russian State Social University, Moscow, Russia.
Published: October 2019

The article’s goal is to study the idea of collegiality in order to find out whether or not it can be used as a possible cultural principle for the dialogue of cultures. The culture of the dialogue of cultures as the main term of possible dialogue has many options. One of them can be the idea of collegiality, which was developed by Russian religious philosophers since the value of a theory does not depend on the time of its creation. This implies the possibility of reconstructing previous concepts in theory and actualizing them creatively in the modern social context.

Introduction: Improving the legal literacy and legal awareness of citizens is an integral part of building a democratic state. One of the ways to this improvement is the development of legal culture as an integrated nationwide program, covering all segments of the population, especially youth and students of all education levels. Methods: In the new conditions of the Russian Federation’s state system, the foreground task is to form a general legal culture, as well as to develop practical skills of students in vocational education institutions. Legal culture is a universal, basic component of professional training in any field. Results: Legal education and training are intended to solve the problem of forming a legal culture of students. The content of legal culture should not only be reflected in the Law course and other educational subjects comprising elements of legislation studies, but it should also develop opinions and attitudes of students to the law implementation in general. In the process of legal education in vocational education institutions, consideration of age and individual characteristics requires not just passive adaptation of the material and methods to the characteristics of students, but their active development in accordance with the general goal of forming legal awareness. Discussion: To be involved in efficient legal education, students must know the requirements of civil society for every individual and their own capacities, see their negative and positive traits, objectively evaluate them, avoid underestimating or overestimating their abilities and capacities, level of aspirations. Conclusion: The development of vocational education in modern conditions provides opportunities for increasing the importance and relevance of legal culture. The high level of legal culture has a positive influence on the development of personality and professional activities of graduates and on the harmonization of interrelations in society.

In the Construction sector the need of cement is expanding step by step for fulfilling the need of improvement of foundation developments. The creation of Ordinary Portland concrete emanates the enormous amount of CO2 into the climate. Hence, it is basic to discover choices to make the solid eco - neighborly. Low calcium fly ash based geopolymer cement is a substitute choice for bond based cement. It is an inorganic alumina-silicate compound, blended from fly ash remains. The exploratory work on Geopolymer cement is to assess the impact of different parameters influencing its compressive quality and usefulness of cement so as to improve its general execution was extended. Basic arrangement utilized for present examination is mix of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate. By applying the Nano Technology, expansion of Nano silica is to improve the quality of cement. The essential distinction between geo-polymer cement and Portland bond cement is the binding property. The silicon and aluminum oxides in the low-calcium fly slag responds with the soluble fluid to frame the geo-polymer concrete that ties the free coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, and other un-responded materials together to shape the geo-polymer concrete. As on account of Portland bond concrete, the coarse and fine totals possess around 75 to 80% of the mass of geo-polymer concrete. The impact of totals, for example, reviewing, precision and quality, are viewed as equivalent to on account of Portland bond concrete. Along these lines, this segment of geo-polymer solid blends can be structured utilizing the instruments as of now accessible bond for Portland concrete. The principle goal of this exploration work is to break down the carbon dioxide free cementitious material with its quality, functionality properties and their impacts on Geopolymer concrete for maintainable improvement.

Resource allocation is the method of providing various available resources to the users in a network. Optical network is the method of the transmission of data through established equipment of optical fiber cables. Optical fibre cable used by different cable industries for communication between digital signal, telecommunication and data cable signals. Because of the low interfering, optical fibre cable has wide variety of applications over copper cable. The previously used techniques, described the distribution of the resource issue over the network for the three kinds of the stations and solution algorithms were proposed to solve the problem. First approach is representing the quantum key distribution that enables two parties to share a random key over the network .Also, different security phases have been demonstrated by updating multiple keys. Proposed algorithm decrease the rate of loss of data during the communication in optical networks. An approach is implemented namely route wavelength and time period arrangement (RWTA) algorithm to assign properties for three kinds of the stations and examine the results based on various structures. The proposed approach is based on two security mechanisms, which are in terms of the quantum key distributions and OSTBC encoding process, to improve the authentication in the network. In addition, quantum key distribution and OSTBC encoding is processed to evaluate the performance of the Quality service channel (QSC) and time division channels (TDC). Finally, it was determined that there is low probability of blocked data and less chances of the key failure in the network.

Nowadays there is an increase in environmental knowledge and its effects on the environment, the disposal of waste products from industries are being big deal to manage. Such waste materials cannot be dumped on any lands, due to this reason it is difficult to manage waste materials. After so many investigations finally conclude that waste material can be utilized in the construction as additives, such materials can reduce the cost of construction and gives more strength compared to conventional concrete. These products can be utilized to partial replacement of cement. In this investigation, we are using Silica fume/ Micro silica as a partial replacement of cement. From this combination, we can improve the strength, workability and resist cracks in concrete. To reduce water content PAR PLAST SPL super plasticizer is used. The present investigation is to determine the strength behavior of Silica fume/Micro silica and fibres in Rigid pavement. The concrete mix design is as per IRC 44 2009, and it is proportioned to set target mean strength as 40 Mpa. The water-cement ratio as per mix design is 0.38. Specimens was casted and cured for various percentages that are 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%. With this constant percentage of fibres was added that is 1% Polypropylene fibre and 0.5% Glass fibre. This specimen tested for 3, 7, 28 days for cubes and 7, 28 days for beams and cylinders. From this investigation, Cement can be replaced with Micro silica to improve strength properties like bending and tensile strength. The Silica fume/ micro silica found at 7.5% optimum dosage, up to this percentage cement can be replaced.

Traffic management has been and remains a significant issue, particularly in urban regions with elevated vehicle density. Adoption of an intelligent transport system (ITS) has extensively experimented to curb the traffic threat with blended experiences as a result. By communicating with other vehicles traveling on the same road in the form of clusters, an ad hoc vehicle network (VANET) forms and ITS that can allow vehicles with less human input to cooperate. By considering the elevated mobility nature of cars in VANET, this article provides a solution to the primary threat of VANET clustering by embracing the flexibility of fuzzy logics for cluster formation on a multilane urban high way. It also demonstrates that cluster stability is enhanced by performing the cluster head (CH) selection process based on a mixture of fuzzy logic, lane weighting, and utility function with the fuzzy membership function adjusted to boost cluster stability.

A política externa do México durante o Estado neoliberal (1982-2012)
Authors: Ives Diogo
Published: October 2019

O artigo analisa a política externa mexicana no período de 30 anos entre as presidências de Miguel de La Madrid (1982-88) e Felipe Calderón (2006-12) tendo como base teórica os paradigmas de Estado de Amado Cervo. O objetivo é avaliar os impactos que o surgimento do Estado neoliberal a partir do governo de La Madrid teve sobre o comportamento do país no sistema internacional. Observa-se que o aprofundamento do programa neoliberal nas décadas seguintes levou a uma aproximação crescente com os Estados Unidos, devido à dependência econômica, bem como com a América Central, devido a preocupações securitárias. No entanto, gerou um afastamento em relação à América do Sul. Diante da crise econômica de 2009, o governo de Calderón buscou ampliar a presença no espaço sul-americano, a fim de contrabalancear a vulnerabilidade sentida em relação aos Estados Unidos, por meio de iniciativas como a CELAC e a Aliança do Pacífico.

Palavras-chave: Política Externa do México; Paradigmas de Estado.

 

 

Abstract: This paper analyzes the Mexican foreign policy in the 30-year period between the presidencies of Miguel de La Madrid (1982-88) and Felipe Calderón (2006-12) according to the theory of State paradigms by Amado Cervo. The objective is to evaluate the impact that the emergence of the neoliberal State during La Madrid’s government had over the country's behavior in the international system. It concludes that the deepening of the neoliberal program in the following decades led to a growing rapprochement with the United States, due to economic dependency, as well as with Central America, due to security concerns. However, it generated a detachment from South America. In the face of the economic crisis of 2009, the Calderon government sought to expand its presence in the South American space through initiatives such as CELAC and the Pacific Alliance in order to offset the vulnerability felt toward the United States.

As Políticas de Transferência de Armas e a Evolução da Sociedade Internacional: Continuidade e Mudança na Cooperação Brasileiro-Francesa
Authors: Domínguez Carlos
Published: October 2019

O artigo explora a relevância das políticas de transferência de armas sob a perspectiva da segurança internacional e da evolução da sociedade internacional. Entende-se que as transferências de armas são essencialmente atos políticos, mesmo que existam outros incentivos – econômicos. Elas atingem as relações bilaterais e multilaterais entre Estados fornecedores, receptores – e eventualmente também de atores não-estatais, bem como das vítimas e dos contribuintes de impostos. O Brasil e a França são países que apresentam um longo histórico de cooperação no campo da segurança internacional. Em consequência, torna-se necessário avaliar a recomposição das suas respectivas políticas de transferências.

Palavras-chave: Brasil; França; Segurança Internacional; Indústria de Defesa; Transferência de Armas.

 

 

Abstract: This article discusses arms trade policies from an international security perspective. Arms transfers are widely treated as political issues even when economic incentives exist. They affect bilateral and multilateral relations among suppliers, countries receiving the arms, non-state actors, taxpayers, and victims. Brazil and France have historical links in international security matters. This, in turn, calls for a review and compare of both arms transfer policies.

Hedley Bull e a Sociedade Internacional: a persistência da dimensão interestatal
Authors: Mariutti Eduardo Barros
Published: October 2019

A despeito de toda a retórica, o pilar fundamental da perspectiva de Hedley Bull e de seus prognósticos sobre a política mundial repousa na defesa intransigente da soberania estatal como o alicerce básico da ordem mundial contemporânea. No entanto, pela erudição, versatilidade e abrangência de sua obra, trata-se de um autor de relevância fundamental para as Relações Internacionais. O objetivo básico deste artigo, no entanto, é destacar um aspecto que nem sempre se ressalta: a peculiar incursão de Hedley Bull pela antropologia social, particularmente no que diz respeito à análise da anarquia como elemento ordenador das (mal) chamadas “sociedades sem Estado”.

Palavras chave: realismo, Hedley Bull, Teoria das Relações Internacionais.

 

 

Abstract: The main argument of this paper is that, despite all rhetoric, the fundamental pillar of Hedley Bull's perspective rests on the intransigent defense of state sovereignty as the basic foundation of the contemporary world order. However, by the erudition, versatility and scope of his work, he is an author of fundamental relevance. The basic aim of this paper, however, is to highlight one aspect that is not always emphasized: Hedley Bull's peculiar incursion into social anthropology, particularly with regard to the analysis of anarchy as an organizational principle in “primitive” anarchical systems.

The Concept of Power in Hannah Arendt and Michel Foucault: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Jacon Ayres Pinto Danielle , Maieron Pereira Cecília
Published: October 2019

The concept of power has been the focus of discussion of many thinkers that attempted to understand who are their agents, how it is created and what are its main goals. In this scenario, Michel Foucault and Hannah Arendt have its respective and relevant conceptions of power and how it is expressed in our contemporary society. For the first thinker, power is everywhere and it is exercised in everyday life. For the german philosopher, power is expressed collectivelly. Therefore, the main goal of this essay is to analyse and compare their respective conceptions of power, especially how they understand resistance and violence. In this sense, by using bibliographic resources, this essay is a descriptive and comparative study about the conceptions of power for Hannah Arendt and for Michel Foucault. By a hypothetical-deductive approach, it is understood that the two conceptions are complementary since the French philosopher has a broader concept and Hannah Arendt offers more tools to analyse the possibility of resistance to power. In fact, the two thinkers offer us tools to comprehend power as a positive, criative and fluid factor.

Keywords: Power; Michel Foucault; Hannah Arendt.

 

 

Resumo: O conceito de poder tem sido foco de discussão de muitos pensadores que tentam entender seus agentes, como é criado e quais são seus objetivos. Neste cenário, Michel Foucault e Hannah Arendt possuem suas respectivas e relevantes contribuições sobre o que é poder e como ele é expresso na nossa sociedade contemporânea. Para o primeiro pensador, o poder está em todos os lugares e é exercício cotidianamente. Para a pensadora alemã, o poder é expressado por uma coletividade. O objetivo deste artigo, portanto, é analisar e comparar suas visões sobre poder, sobretudo sobre como entendem resistência e violência. Dessa forma, partindo de fontes bibliográficas, realiza-se um estudo descritivo e comparado das visões de poder para Hannah Arendt e Michel Foucault. Com abordagem hipotética-dedutiva, compreende-se que as duas concepções podem ser consideradas como complementares uma vez que o filósofo francês possui um conceito mais amplo que Hannah Arendt e esta contribui melhor para se analisar a possibilidade de resistência ao poder. De fato, estes dois autores nos possibilitam compreender o poder enquanto fator positivo, criador e fluído.

O acordo Druzhba-Dosti entre Rússia e Índia e as implicações para a segurança nuclear da região
Authors: Morales David , Mortari Piaceteli Camila
Published: October 2019

Desde a independência da Índia e do Paquistão, em 1947, perante a colonização britânica, as relações entre ambos países têm sido marcadas por disputas territoriais e corridas nucleares, contribuindo para a propagação de desconfianças, inseguranças e constantes percepções de ameaças, que perduram até a segunda década do século XXI. Nesse sentido, cada um dos dois países buscou realizar parcerias com potências nucleares: o Paquistão tradicionalmente com a China, e a Índia, por sua vez, aprofundou sua parceria com a Rússia em diversos âmbitos – com destaque para Defesa e Energia, através do acordo materializado em 2014 pela Declaração Conjunta de Druzhba-Dosti. Consequentemente, este estudo analisa a parceria russo-indiana, suas motivações e suas repercussões regionais, no que tange às relações indo-paquistanesas, à construção de projetos pacifistas na região e ao envolvimento de atores regionais – com destaque especial para Rússia e China.  Tanto Índia quanto Paquistão deverão, por conseguinte, agindo como atores racionais e em consequência do acordo russo-indiano, manter seus programas nucleares, buscando, nesse sentido, fortalecerem-se através de parcerias estratégicas com outros players regionais e globais, dissuadindo um ao outro e almejando, cada um, a construção de uma hegemonia artificial, a priori no subcontinente indiano e posteriormente em âmbito macrorregional.

Abstract: Since the independence of India and Pakistan in 1947, in the face of British colonization, relations between both countries have been marked by territorial and nuclear race disputes, contributing to the spread of mistrust, insecurity and constant perceptions of threats that persist until the second decade of the twenty-first century. In this sense, each of the two countries sought to form partnerships with nuclear weapon states: Pakistan traditionally with China, and India, in turn, deepened its partnership with Russia in various areas – especially Defense and Energy, through the treaty materialized in 2014 by the Joint Declaration of Druzhba-Dosti. Consequently, this study analyzes the Russian-Indian partnership, their motivations and their regional repercussions, with regard to the Indo-Pakistani relations, the construction of peace projects in the region and the participation of regional actors – with special highlight to Russia and China. Both India and Pakistan should therefore act as rational actors and as a result of the Russian-Indian agreement, maintain their nuclear programs, seeking, in this sense, to strengthen themselves through strategic partnerships with other regional and global players, deterring each other and longing, each one, the building of an artificial hegemony, a priori in the Indian subcontinent and next in macro-regional context.

Procurou-se através de um estudo predominantemente bibliográfico a correlação entre institutos da interculturalidade e da diplomacia cultural. O objetivo primordial do presente artigo é apresentar esta última como um instrumento de promoção do diálogo intercultural entre os países. A determinação do tema adveio da necessidade de promoção e da proteção das especificidades culturais de cada Estado e também o que cada um deles entende por direitos humanos. Busca-se, então, superar a polêmica acerca da dicotomia “universalismo x relativismo cultural”, propondo-se a interculturalidade como solução. Como a cultura não deve ser entendida como uma imposição de valores de um grupo sobre o outro, também não deve ser vista como um empecilho à preponderância dos direitos humanos. Dessa forma, a diplomacia cultural representa um instrumento ideal para a efetivação desse diálogo intercultural a fim de se alcançar uma confluência de chegada, e não de partida. A diplomacia cultural, por sua vez, é capaz de promover um diálogo sobre direitos humanos pautado no respeito e, sobretudo, na diversidade cultural. Defende-se aqui que a interculturalidade, entendida sob a perspectiva da hermenêutica diatópica.

Abstract: It was sought through a predominantly bibliographic study the correlation between the institutes interculturality and cultural diplomacy. The primary objective of this article is to present the last as an instrument to promote intercultural dialogue among countries. The determination of the theme came from the need to promote and protect the cultural specificities of each State and also what each one understands by human rights. It seeks, then, to overcome the polemic about the dichotomy "universalism vs. cultural relativism", proposing interculturality as a solution. Since culture should not be understood as an imposition of values from one group to another, it should not be seen either as a hindrance to the preponderance of human rights. In this way, cultural diplomacy is an ideal instrument for the realization of this intercultural dialogue in order to reach a confluence of arrival, not departure. Cultural diplomacy is capable of promoting a dialogue on human rights based on respect and, above all, on cultural diversity. It is argued here that interculturality, understood from the perspective of diatopic hermeneutics.

BALANCING IN UNIPOLARITY
Authors: Dall'Agnol Augusto César
Published: October 2019

This article aims to analyze, through a critical bias, the implications of unipolarity to balancing behavior. In order to do so, it discusses the dynamics of balance of power theory, assumed to be inoperative in the post-Cold War period by the main academic debates over unipolarity: i) unipolar stability; ii) balance of threats; iii) soft balancing; iv) liberal institutionalism. What is argued is that, including the unipolar illusion view, tied to the balance of power theory, these approaches overestimated the effects of the unipolarity to the balancing behavior of other states. In this sense, it is assumed here that the issues related to the unipolar moment are directly connected to the hegemonic interregnum discussions. By concluding that the dynamics of balance of power, especially those of hard balancing, are still observed in the post-Cold War era, the two main ponderations of the literature become inverted: i) that balancing became inoperative and; ii) that the only available strategies to other states would be soft balancing and bandwagoning. In sum, this conclusion has directly implication to the available strategies both to the United States and its main peer competitors.

Argentina e Brasil: Lições de uma Transição Hegemônica Sul-Americana
Authors: Schenoni Luis Leandro
Published: October 2019

Quatro décadas se passaram desde que o equilíbrio do poder argentino-brasileiro no Cone Sul deu lugar a uma indiscutível primazia do Brasil. A natureza pacífica e cooperativa dessa transição de poder regional representa um enigma interessante para as teorias estruturalistas atuais que preveem as crescentes tensões entre os Estados Unidos e a China Por que alguns países aceitam seu declínio de uma forma mais branda, como a Argentina fez nesse momento? Neste artigo, ofereço um modelo formal e uso a técnica de rastreamento de processos para demonstrar que a principal reviravolta cooperativa nessa relação ocorreu entre o final da década de 1970 e o início da década de 1990. Minhas conclusões sugerem, ao contrário da narrativa predominante, que a cooperação entre a Argentina e o Brasil não foi produto da democratização. Em contraste, o caso sul-americano sugere que as transições pacíficas de poder ocorrem quando os custos do confronto são altos e as coalizões de política externa são redefinidas no estado em declínio.

 

 

Abstract: Almost four decades have passed since the Argentina-Brazil balance of power gave way to a Brazilian uncontested primacy in the Southern Cone. The peaceful and cooperative nature of this regional power transition poses an interesting puzzle for structural theories and those concerned with the US-China transition. Why do certain countries accept accommodation more leniently, like Argentina did? I offer an explanatory model and use process tracing to show that key cooperative turns in this bilateral relationship—during the late 1970s and early 1990s—required concurrent structural changes, both at the international and domestic levels. My conclusions suggest, against the prevalent narrative, that cooperation between Argentina and Brazil was not a product of democracy. Instead, peaceful power transitions take place when the costs of confrontation are high and social coalitions are largely redefined in the declining state.

Se argumenta que las negociaciones comerciales internacionales tienen un valor estratégico como instrumento de política internacional frente al  cambio en el escenario global. Se identifican cuatro tendencias para las negociaciones comerciales internacionales y se propone una tipología para las mismas, en función de los ejes cooperación-confrontación y cambio de reglas de juego – preservación del status quo. Se trata de un estudio de casos múltiples, aunque no comparado, de base cualitativa, con énfasis en el análisis documental.

 

 

 

Abstract: In the context of the hegemonic dispute, this paper analyzes how the transformation of the American foreign trade policy since the assumption of Trump’s administration have impacted in the scenarios of international trade negotiations. It is argued that international trade negotiations have a strategic value as an instrument of international policy in the face of the change of the global scenario. Four trends for international trade negotiations are identified and a typology, based on the axes of cooperation-confrontation and change of rules of the game- preservation of the status quo, is proposed. It is a multiple case study, although not compared, with a qualitative basis, and with emphasis on documentary analysis.

Keywords: international trade negotiations; international negotiation strategies; globalization crisis; Trump.

Uma visão geral da política externa chinesa contemporânea: estratégias, atores e instrumentos
Authors: Montenegro Renan Holanda
Published: October 2019

Nos últimos anos, houve uma proliferação de livros e artigos sobre aspectos diversos da atuação internacional da China, como relações comerciais, investimentos, participação em novos fóruns multilaterais, questões de defesa, etc. Por outro lado, existe uma relativa ausência de textos introdutórios resumidos sobre a política externa do país, principalmente em língua portuguesa. O presente trabalho busca preencher essa lacuna por meio de uma análise de três aspectos centrais para se compreender a China na contemporaneidade sob lentes macro: 1) a existência de uma grande estratégia; 2) o desenho administrativo interno e os principais atores de política externa; e 3) os instrumentos à disposição para se perseguir os objetivos internacionais do país. Estudantes de graduação de Relações Internacionais – e de Ciências Sociais em geral – em estágio inicial de contato com temas sobre a China são o público-alvo, além de outros possíveis interessados no assunto.

 

 

Abstract: Over the last years there has been a proliferation of books and articles on various aspects of China's international performance, such as trade relations, investment, participation in new multilateral arenas, defense issues, etc. On the other hand, there is a relative lack of summary introductory texts on the country's foreign policy, mainly in Portuguese. This paper seeks to fill this gap by analyzing three central aspects to understand China in the contemporary world under macro lens: 1) the existence of a great strategy; 2) the internal administrative division and the main foreign policy actors; and 3) the instruments available to pursue the country's international objectives. International Relations undergraduate students – and those of Social Sciences in general – in the initial stage of contact with topics related to China are the target audience, in addition to other people interested in the subject.

Keywords: China. State and Government. Foreign Policy. International Relations.

ASSESSMENT OF RECENT GOCE-BASED GLOBAL GEOPOTENTIAL MODELS AND EGM2008 IN NIGER REPUBLIC
Authors: Ibrahim Yahaya Salissou , El Azzab Driss
Published: October 2019

In this study, we assessed recent GOCE-based Global Geopotential Models (GGMs) and EGM2008 in Niger. The combined GGMs EIGEN_6C4, GECO and EGM2008 were evaluated up to their maximum degree and order (d/o) 2,190 to select the one for gravity database densification. The following pure satellite GGMs were assessed for the modelling of the long and medium wavelengths in geoid computation: GGM05G, ITU_GGC16, EIGEN_6S4v2 and the fifth releases from direct (DIR5), space-wise (SPW5) and time-wise (TIM5) approaches. The GGMs are compared to terrestrial gravity data and geoid heights from GNSS/Levelling points before and after applying spectral enhancement method (SEM) by residual terrain model (RTM) for combined models and by RTM and the coefficients of selected combined GGM for pure satellite models. The agreements of combined GGMs with terrestrial gravity data and GNSS/Levelling points, in terms of root mean square (RMS) are about 4.88 to 5.02 mGal and 0.14 to 0.16 m, respectively. EIGEN_6C4 was selected as it showed the best performance in terms of geoid height differences and the probability of 3-sigma rule for gravity anomaly differences. At d/o 200, DIR5 showed a good agreement with terrestrial gravity data (5.04 mGal) and GNSS/Levelling points (0.15 m) after applying SEM, it was then retained. All GOCE-based models exhibited a good performance in long and medium wavelengths confirming the good recovery of the gravity field by the spatial gravity mission in these spectral bands.
L’interprétation comme émergence
Authors: Squverer Amos
Published: October 2019

Nous devons à Lacan une élaboration théorique poussée de l’équivoque comme acte interprétatif. Cet article propose de faire usage du texte freudien comme caisse de résonance à la question de l’équivoque dans l’interprétation. En restituant la structure même du rêve, nous montrons en quoi l’interprétation est structurée comme un rêve. Elle vient faire résonner plusieurs séries hétérogènes et permet de les nouer. Nous proposons de saisir cette logique de l’interprétation avec le concept de l’émergence emprunté au champ de la complexité.
Désir d’analyste, devenir analyste, deux logiques différentes ?
Authors: Landman Patrick
Published: October 2019

Le désir d’analyste et le devenir analyste désignent a priori deux perspectives différentes : l’une essentiellement éthique, l’autre technique. En résumé, le devenir analyste implique l’acquisition d’un certain savoir-faire et le désir d’analyste implique, lui, de tenter de poursuivre sur la voie de l’invention de Freud. Mais les recoupements sont possibles car le savoir-faire de l’analyste n’est pas seulement technique, il ne saurait être dépourvu d’une dimension éthique, et le désir de l’analyste n’est pas seulement de nature éthique car il s’adosse à une expérience qui n’est pas sans règles techniques.
Faut le temps
Authors: Pickmann Claude-Noële
Published: October 2019

Si, pour Lacan, la fin d’une analyse implique la passe, celle-ci n’est pas pour autant son terme. Elle ouvre un nouveau temps de l’analyse, un temps issu de ce moment fugitif qui a conjoint la faille dans l’Autre avec l’apparition de l’objet et que Lacan appelle « le temps qu’il faut pour se faire à être » selon sa formulation de 1970 dans « Radiophonie ».
La Lettre volée , moments de l’histoire de la psychanalyse : Poe, Borges, Lacan, Derrida, Johnson, Irwin, etc.
Authors: Prado de Oliveira Luiz Eduardo
Published: October 2019

Nos mémoires sont faites de traces et puis de lettres. Nous souvenons-nous déjà de ce que furent les aventures de « La lettre volée » ? Nous avons cru qu’elles commençaient avec Lacan et se poursuivaient jusqu’à Derrida. Les plus avertis savaient que Marie Bonaparte était à l’origine de l’intérêt que Lacan leur consacra et que Jean-Claude Milner avait été attentif aux rapports entre ses personnages. Mais connaissait-on le parcours de cette lettre aux États-Unis ? Cet article fait le récit de la mémoire des lettres et de leurs traces.
Le gouvernement Mauroy face à la désindustrialisation : de la crise économique à la crise sociale et politique
Authors: Tracol Matthieu
Published: October 2019

En 1983 et 1984, le gouvernement Mauroy, qui vient de confirmer son choix d’une politique économique de rigueur, doit faire face à une grave crise de l’industrie française. À travers l’étude de deux cas concrets (les licenciements au sein de PSA et la genèse du plan de restructuration de l’industrie publique de 1984), cet article montre l’impuissance du gouvernement. Celui-ci veut promouvoir la négociation sociale, mais subit un lourd échec face à la direction de Peugeot. Il veut éviter un conflit social dans le secteur public, mais n’empêche pas qu’une forte contestation s’exprime dans la sidérurgie lorraine. Cette crise industrielle attise les divisions à l’intérieur de la gauche, sans conduire cependant à une clarification idéologique.
Moderniser, convertir... désindustrialiser ?
Authors: Fontaine Marion
Published: October 2019

Alors que la France entre dans une période de haute croissance industrielle, au cours des années 1950, certains secteurs éprouvent au contraire de plus en plus de difficultés. C’est en particulier le cas pour l’industrie minière. Mais, si la disparition de cette industrie apparaît a posteriori comme inéluctable, le processus est loin d’être aussi évident pour les contemporains : s’agit-il d’une crise temporaire, d’une modernisation ou encore d’une disparition ? Ce type d’interrogations a une portée qui dépasse le cas des mines. Celles-ci reflètent en effet les questionnements concernant les transformations qui affectent la société industrielle durant les « Trente Glorieuses », en particulier autour du débat stabilité/instabilité, sécurité/précarité. Cet article cherche donc à explorer ces questionnements en se penchant sur l’expérience minière, envisagée non pas à l’échelle d’un seul bassin, mais sur le plan national, en insistant en même temps sur la diversité des situations locales. Il s’intéresse aussi à la manière dont les mineurs eux-mêmes appréhendent cette crise ou cette modernisation, notamment à travers le cas du conflit social de Decazeville (1961-1962).
Des vies brisées : désindustrialisation, santé et bien-être dans la région de Clydeside
Authors: McIvor Arthur , Mak Ariane
Published: October 2019

À partir du cas de la région de Clydeside autour de Glasgow et par un large recours aux sources orales, l’article envisage les manières dont la désindustrialisation affecte de façon ambivalente le bien-être des ouvriers. Les sources examinées suggèrent que la désindustrialisation est l’un des principaux facteurs des taux de morbidité et de mortalité importants que connaît la région de Clydeside par rapport à la moyenne écossaise. L’analyse de témoignages d’ouvriers affectés par la désindustrialisation montre qu’aux côtés d’un récit dominant de perte et de dégradation de la santé, coexiste de manière plus ténue mais néanmoins manifeste l’histoire d’une libération, véritable émancipation vis-à-vis d’emplois industriels dangereux et nocifs.
