Published: November 2022

Breast tumour could be benign or malignant in nature, thus early detection is of the essence for good management outcome. Associated morbidity and mortality in relation to breast cancer, in particular, are of great concern. Among the different challenges in the management of breast cancer, cytopenia is commonly reported, while, associated blood transfusion dependence has received little attention. This study, therefore, looked into the features of breast cancer patients particularly with regards to disease staging and average blood transfusion needs. This cross-sectional descriptive study enrolled 46 female patients accessing medical care for breast tumour in Southern Nigeria. Bio-data and information on clinical assessment were obtained from patients’ case files. Blood sample was collected from each enrolled subject for assessment of carcinoembryonic antigen level by immunochromatographic assay method. Breast tumour was observed to be prevalent among women of reproductive age with a peak at the age range of 36-45 years. Majority of the cases (82.6 %) turned out to be malignant, while 17.4% were benign conditions. Advanced stage 4 cases accounted for 47.4% of the studied group. Increasing prevalence of mortality during therapy was recorded alongside advancement in age as well as stage of the cancer. The carcinoembryonic antigen level varied significantly across the various breast cancer stages. Stage 4 breast cancer showed significantly elevated mean value compared to both stages 1 and 2. There is prevailing late detection of breast cancer in the Nigerian population contributing to high mortality rate and more demands on blood transfusion.
In Utero Intervention for Isolated Fetal Pleural Effusion: A Case Report
Authors: Kurdi Wesam , Ibrahim Lina
Published: November 2022

Fetal pleural effusion is a rare condition easily diagnosed by antenatal ultrasound. It can be classified into two categories: primary and secondary. Primary pleural effusion is mainly attributed to defective lymphatic drainage in the fetus. Secondary pleural effusion can be caused by conditions that affect the fetal cardiac function, fetal anemia, fetal infections, chromosomal aberrations, genetic diseases, or congenital malformations that disrupt the lungs and mediastinal architecture. The clinical course is variable depending on the severity, underlying cause, gestational age at diagnosis, and the presence or absence of other congenital abnormalities. We present a case of isolated fetal pleural effusion where in utero therapy included thoracocentesis followed by the insertion of a thoracoamniotic shunt.

«ECONOMICS OF SUPERSTARS»: OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS FOR FIELD OF EDUCATION
Authors: NESTORENKO Tetyana
Published: November 2022

Introduction. The development of technology leads to a change in the structure of markets and to the formation of the «economics of superstars». This fully applies to the market of educational services, when the introduction of distance formal education can lead to the emergence of superstar teachers and the reformatting of this market.
The purpose of the article is to identify opportunities and threats to the formation of the «economics of superstars» in the field of formal education due to the influence of modern technologies and changes that have been introduced through quarantine measures in the educational process in educational institutions.
Results. The formation process of the «economics of superstars» is described as a result of the introduction of new technologies. The influence of the online learning introduction for pupils and students on the formation process of teachers-superstars is determined in the results of the introduction of quarantine measures in Ukraine. After the end of quarantine, the state can maintain this form of the educational process organization, providing access to quality educational services to pupils and students regardless of their place of residence. In turn, this will reduce the demand for teachers and the separation of superstar teachers from teachers of the second and third ranks. The proliferation of online educational resources in the formal education system will lead to the disqualification of most teachers, to creation of superstar teachers and the education system of the winners. Qualified teachers can take advantage of their comparative advantage only if other teachers supplement these face-to-face lectures. This complementarity will increase the number and quality of face-to-face teaching services, potentially increasing the marginal product and salaries of lower-skilled teachers.
Conclusions. It is proved that the use of technologies in the field of educational services can lead to the formation of the «economics of superstars» in Ukraine. The results show that teachers who have online lessons for pupils and students all over Ukraine and become superstars during quarantine events have every chance of maintaining this status after quarantine. Further research is needed to determine the difference in the trends of superstars in the markets of mixed goods with different characteristics: in the markets of goods that are non-competitive and excluded, and in the markets of goods that are competitive and non-excluded.

LEAN PRODUCTION AS ONE OF THE ASPECTS OF FORMING THE COMPETITIVENESS OF MILK PROCESSING ENTERPRISES OF UKRAINE
Authors: SENYK Yurii
Published: November 2022

Introduction. The increase in imports of dairy products from European countries leads to increased economic pressure on dairy enterprises in our country. To maintain its own market share, as well as to expand it, it is necessary to improve the quality of its own products and, accordingly, reduce its cost, i.e., to strengthen its competitiveness. Today, one of the most common management decisions is the introduction of lean production at the enterprise.
The purpose of the article is to analyze the key elements of lean production and their possible practical use in dairy enterprises.
Results. The article describes the general characteristics of the concept of "lean production", the main task of which is to provide tools to reduce losses of actions that do not create value. Theoretical aspects of eight key losses in Toyota's philosophy are analyzed: 1. Overproduction is untimely or excessive production compared to the order. 2. Losses during transportation – excessive transportation of materials, semi-finished products, finished products. 3. Unnecessary movements are any movements (movements) of people, tools or equipment that do not add value to the final product. 4. Expectations – breaks in work associated with the expectation of human resources (labor), materials, equipment or information. 5. Additional or redundant processing – additional effort that does not add value to the consumer. 6. Excess stocks – excessive supply of raw materials or other materials used in the production process. 7. Defective product – products that require inspection, sorting, disposal, downgrading, replacement or repair. 8. People – incomplete use of human mental, creative abilities and experience. In addition, specific examples of these losses are given on the basis of the work of dairy enterprises and their causality is established. General recommendations for the implementation of the Lean system in production are given.
Conclusions. When moving towards innovative development and strengthening the company's competitiveness, it is necessary to take into account the modern world experience of innovative activity, including the experience of creating lean production. Although, of course, one cannot blindly adopt experience, it must be adapted to the peculiarities of both the domestic economy and the mentality of its employees.

Authors: PATLATIUK Serhii
Published: November 2022

Introduction. Making optimal strategic decisions becomes an important task that requires the improvement of existing planning methods in a complex, rapidly changing, often unpredictable environment in which agricultural enterprises currently operate. In this regard, strategic planning of agricultural enterprises is of great importance in order to anticipate possible changes in the functioning of the organization and develop measures to increase the overall stability of operating systems of enterprises through their flexibility and adaptation to change.
The purpose of the article is to substantiate the methodological principles of strategic planning at the micro level and to develop an information and organizational model of strategic planning of the operating system of an agricultural enterprise.
Results. A comparative description of the main types of planning and planning systems is presented. The reasons that hinder the formation of a system of strategic planning in agricultural enterprises are identified. The main factors influencing the content, structure and horizon of the strategic plan are identified. The organizational structure of agricultural enterprises in the context of introduction of the chosen model of strategic planning is specified.
Conclusions. An information and organizational model of strategic planning of the operating system of an agricultural enterprise has been developed, which provides for partial transformation of the organizational management structure with the allocation of a working group responsible for strategic planning, and includes a diagram of information flows between units of the agricultural enterprise. It is proposed to use the form of a staff unit within the organizational structure of the enterprise, in which the coordination of work is carried out by a special employee – the coordinator of the working group on strategic planning.

The article identifies the main development directions of innovation infrastructure of agricultural businesses, proves the inadequacy of innovative development in modern conditions. The structure of innovative development strategic potential in the agricultural sector of the economy is considered. The importance of such an element in the innovative development strategic potential as the infrastructure component is proved. It is determined that the activity of innovative development in the agricultural sector of the economy is influenced by the formation of its infrastructure, especially the scientific component, which is determined by the scientific potential of the state and implemented through the interaction of scientific, financial, industrial, consulting, marketing, information and communication, legal, educational technologies, etc. The formation of the scientific environment as a set of scientific elements performs a stimulating function of conducting new research for innovative development and plays the role of the growth indicator for productive forces of society and improving relations in production, exchange and distribution. It is outlined that the development of innovation infrastructure should be ensured primarily by the creation of innovative enterprises (innovation centers, technology parks, innovation business incubators, etc.) and the formation of clusters, interconnected systems necessary for effective implementation of the entire cycle of innovation from idea generation to innovation. Financing the innovation infrastructure of agricultural enterprises is a key condition for the susceptibility of the technical and technological system to structural transformations, innovation capacity, information receptivity, use of natural resources and is crucial for the formation of demand for innovation in the agricultural sector for the growth of economic development and overcoming disparities in sectoral development.

Authors: LEBID Olesia , ZUIEVA Oleksandra
Published: November 2022

Introduction. The dynamics of environmental factors in the current processes of reformatting the global economic space highlights the need to adjust the methodological framework and tools of enterprise management.
The purpose of the article is defined as the implementation of a scientific revision of existing concepts of strategic management, development based on a combination of historical and logical methods of strategic management paradigm, adapted to modern business conditions.
Results. The study was based on the hypothesis that referring to the history of strategic management theory would identify the most relevant aspects of management in relation to the realities and features of the market mechanism at different stages of its evolution as a complex system that is nonlinear.
The search for sources of elements of this paradigm led to the consideration of the processes of origin and development of scientific interest in the category of "strategy". The essence of the rational approach in the theory of strategic management, and also directions of its criticism on personalities are outlined. The conditions of shifting the emphasis from meaningful understanding of strategy in a realistic approach to procedural, the feature of which is the approach to strategy formation based on traditional skills, dedication, improvement through the development of details, based on existing practical experience. The stages of evolution of strategic management theories, such as the school of competitive advantage, resource-oriented approach, entrepreneurial, cognitive, school of learning, school of power, cultural, environmental and school of configuration are considered.
Conclusions. Retrospective analysis led to the conclusion that the evolution of the vision of strategy went from simple to complex, from predictable to unpredictable, from clear algorithms to creative approaches. It is noted that despite the heredity of schools or complete abandonment of experience gained in the formation of strategy, it is advisable to rely on all the baggage of experience, using the best tools, organized in their own methodological approach.

У сучасних умовах енергетична ефективність сприяє підвищенню конкурентоздатності на внутрішньому і міжнародному ринках транспортних послуг. Для України ефективне використання паливно-енергетичних ресурсів є однією із найважливіших задач, що забезпечує енергетичну безпеку і енергонезалежність країни.   Специфіка умов експлуатації рухомого складу на міських маршрутах автобусних перевезень У теплу пору року з кондиціонером визначає ряд вимог до конструктивних параметрів самого транспортного засобу і до систем, які забезпечують належний мікроклімат при виконанні транспортного процесу. Характерною особливістю мікроклімату в салонах міських автобусів є нестабільність його параметрів, оскільки температура повітря і облицювальних конструкцій протягом дня може змінюватись до 10˚С і більше. У роботі представлено рішення по перевірці теплової інерції повітря салону міського автобуса для визначення доцільності перегляду використання кондиціонера певної потужності як фактору зниженню енергоємності. При виборі системи управління температурою у салоні слід враховувати реальну теплову інерційність повітряного потоку, який проганяється  через салон автобуса кондиціонером.  З метою підвищення енергоефективності громадського транспорту у теплу пору року, при роботі з кондиціонером,  розглянуто метод економії енергії шляхом перегляду  конструкції  інтер’єру салону та передбачувану швидкість його охолодження.  Отримано результати  проведених експлуатаційних випробовувань мікроклімату в громадському транспорті на міських маршрутах при температурі навколишнього середовища від +25 до 34˚С. Встановлено, що поглинання сонячної енергії та теплопровідність є домінуючими факторами конструкцій автобуса, а теплова інерція повітря важливим параметром комфорту та сприяє зменшенню навантаження при нагріванні та охолодженні.

Published: November 2022

The article is devoted to the preconditions for improving the efficiency of introduction and further use of e-commerce tools by agricultural enterprises. Based on international statistics, it is noted that the involvement of the enterprises in e-commerce can increase sales and competitiveness in the transition from the traditional model of business processes to the market. The analysis of the theoretical basis allowed to identify two main models of the market development in the application of information technology: vertical and horizontal. The results of the study allowed us to conditionally divide the information technology used to ensure the effective functioning of the e-commerce system into two major classes: communication and those that provide the required level of security of transactions. The analysis of electronic data exchange technology (EDI) as one of the main technologies that support the interaction of business with consumers is conducted. The existing methodological approaches to assessing the effectiveness of e-commerce tools are studied and ways to increase the effectiveness of their implementation in agricultural enterprises are proposed. Based on the results, it was found that the effectiveness of e-commerce systems determines the degree of compliance with the commercial needs of its subjects, technologies, approaches, models and rules. The indicators of the methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of Internet projects are considered, with the help of which the values of the selected indicators are compared with the each other or with a certain norm. The existing approaches to the choice of the system of e-commerce efficiency indicators are studied. Mathematical models used in e-commerce are also considered. It is offered strict adherence to the principles and requirements for the organization of business processes using e-commerce methods and resources, the use of mathematical models to improve the efficiency of e-commerce by agricultural enterprises.
Digital Almost Nets

Digital nets (in base 2) are the subsets of [0,1]d that contain exactly the expected number of points in every not-too-small dyadic box. We construct finite sets, which we call "almost nets", such that every such dyadic box contains almost the expected number of points from the set, but whose size is exponentially smaller than the one of nets. We also establish a lower bound on the size of such almost nets.

luta pela terra e as transformações de um campesinato do Baixo Acará, em Acará-PA
Authors: C. Silva de Jesus Edenilze , Torres Maurício Gonsalves
Published: November 2022

O presente artigo analisa as transformações no uso da terra de uma comunidade tradicional camponesa chamada Centro Alegre, localizada na região do Baixo Acará, em Acará/PA, que no início dos anos 2000 teve o seu território atravessado por uma rodovia estadual, a PA-483, conhecida como “Alça Viária”. O episódio descortinou uma série de questões não evidenciadas antes, a exemplo da instabilidade fundiária das terras onde havia sido construída a comunidade. De forma específica, ali tinha se consolidado há anos um campesinato de uso comum, porém, em terras que eram privadas. E concomitante com o advento da rodovia, esse campesinato de uso comum foi bruscamente transformando em um campesinato parcelar. O que, não sem embargo, levou a inúmeras mudanças locais, sendo uma delas, transformações relativas às formas de uso da terra. A pesquisa revelou que essa transmutação provocou impactos significativos nas formas de sobrevivência da comunidade. Como exemplo, cita-se a significativa diminuição do território da comunidade, provocado principalmente pelo aquecimento do mercado de terras e respectiva intensificação de venda das terras dos camponeses. Com isso, muitas famílias vivem, hoje, em um contexto de fortes limitações de recursos naturais em seus lotes, chegando ao ponto de a maioria delas não ter mais roçados e não desenvolverem as atividades agrícolas que antes desenvolviam.

В настоящее время лиофилизация (сублимация) широко применяется в медицинской, ветеринарной практике и пищевой промышленности для длительного сохранения бактерий, вирусов, грибов, диагностических и лечебных биопрепаратов. Для хлебопекарной промышленности получение лиофилизатов промышленноценных штаммов дрожжей видов S. cerevisiae и C. milleri для выведения ржаных и пшеничных заквасок по разводочному циклу является актуальной задачей. Известно, что из всех групп микроорганизмов лучше переносят лиофилизацию бактериальные формы, а культуры дрожжей отличаются меньшей устойчивостью. В процессе лиофилизации клетки подвергаются действию многих повреждающих физико-химических факторов (низкая температура, кристаллизация воды, обезвоживание, осмотический стресс). Процесс лиофилизации дрожжей, связанный с возможным повреждением клеток или даже их гибелью, требует оптимизации и подбора параметров сушки, защитных сред, условий хранения, учета видовых и штаммовых особенностей культур дрожжей с целью обеспечения высокой выживаемости клеток после сушки и в процессе хранения. Проведенный обзор научной литературы свидетельствует о сохранении высокого количества жизнеспособных клеток дрожжей вида S. cerevisiae после лиофилизации и в процессе хранения при правильном подборе защитной среды и режимов сушки и хранения. Дрожжи рода Candida являются более чувствительными к сублимационной сушке, чем дрожжи вида S. cerevisiae. Показано, что применение поликомпонентных протекторов обеспечивает значительно более высокую жизнеспособность штаммов дрожжей рода Candida как сразу после сушки, так и в процессе хранения по сравнению с моносоединениями.

Published: November 2022

Advanced nanoscale antimicrobials, originated from the combination of noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) with conventional antimicrobial drugs, are considered the next generation of antimicrobial agents. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for rapid, eco-friendly, and relatively inexpensive synthetic approaches for the preparation of nontoxic metallic nanostructures endowed with unique physicochemical properties. Recently, we have proposed a straightforward synthetic strategy that exploits the properties of polymeric β-cyclodextrin (PolyCD) to act as both the reducing and stabilizing agent to produce monodispersed and stable gold-based NPs either as monometallic (nanoG) structures or core–shell bimetallic (nanoGS) architectures with an external silver layer. Here, we describe the preparation of a supramolecular assembly between nanoGS and pentamidine, an antileishmanial drug endowed with a wide range of therapeutic properties (i.e., antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer). The physicochemical characterization of the supramolecular assembly (nanoGSP) in terms of size and colloidal stability was investigated by complementary spectroscopic techniques, such as UV–vis, ζ-potential, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Furthermore, the role of PolyCD during the reduction/stabilization of metal NPs was investigated for the first time by NMR spectroscopy.

APPLICATIONS OF THE MOORA AND TOPSIS METHODS FOR DECISION OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TECHNOLOGY
Authors: Hamurcu Mustafa , Eren Tamer
Published: November 2022

The technological development of buses among the new alternative concepts is evaluated in this paper. Bus transportation is an important system in the public transportation, which is cheap, flexible and, in many cases, in terms of capacity and speed. But increasing car traffic in the city centre and increasing the emission such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the air are some of the dangerous problems for urban life. Therefore, it is needed the public transportation to stop increasing car traffic and needed the cleaner technology for air and environmental quality. Electric Buses (EBs) can play an important role for resident’s life quality with improving the urban air quality. However, planners and managers have difficulty in decision-making due to diversified EBs together with the developing technology. Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods that are analytic decision processes, prepare a good solution for this problem. In this study, 5 EBs are assessed under the special criteria with Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Multi‐Objective Optimization on the basis of the Ratio Analysis (MOORA) methods. These 2 methods are MCDM methods that are used to aim of ranking of alternatives in the complex decision problem. These methods are applied to select the best EB under the 6 criteria. Finally, E5-Bus is selected as the best option that rank of the 1st at all the 3 methods. Besides, MOORA and TOPSIS methods were compared. The results are shown alongside the best bus selection for public transportation that MOORA method is also a strong tool for solving vehicle selection problems in transportation. The proposed model has been validated using existing real applications. The proposed multi-criteria analysis can be used for advising decision-makers in their decision-making process for Electric Vehicles (EVs) in the area of clean transportation.

We present the analysis of ∼100 pc scale compact radio continuum sources detected in 63 local (ultra)luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs; L
IR ≥ 1011

⊙), using FWHM ≲ 0.″1–0.″2 resolution 15 and 33 GHz observations with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array. We identify a total of 133 compact radio sources with effective radii of 8–170 pc, which are classified into four main categories—“AGN” (active galactic nuclei), “AGN/SBnuc” (AGN-starburst composite nucleus), “SBnuc” (starburst nucleus), and “SF” (star-forming clumps)—based on ancillary data sets and the literature. We find that “AGN” and “AGN/SBnuc” more frequently occur in late-stage mergers and have up to 3 dex higher 33 GHz luminosities and surface densities compared with “SBnuc” and “SF,” which may be attributed to extreme nuclear starburst and/or AGN activity in the former. Star formation rates (SFRs) and surface densities (ΣSFR) are measured for “SF” and “SBnuc” using both the total 33 GHz continuum emission (SFR ∼ 0.14–13 M
⊙ yr−1, ΣSFR ∼ 13–1600 M

The latter also have a much flatter median 15–33 GHz spectral index (∼−0.08) compared with “SBnuc” and “SF” (∼−0.46), which may reflect higher nonthermal contribution from supernovae and/or interstellar medium densities in local U/LIRGs that directly result from and/or lead to their extreme star-forming activities on 100 pc scales.
Impact of Rastall Gravity on Mass, Radius, and Sound Speed of the Pulsar PSR J0740+6620
Authors: El Hanafy Waleed
Published: November 2022

Millisecond pulsars are perfect laboratories to test possible matter–geometry coupling and its physical implications in light of recent Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) observations. We apply Rastall field equations of gravity, where matter and geometry are nonminimally coupled, to Krori–Barua interior spacetime whereas the matter source is assumed to be anisotropic fluid. We show that all physical quantities inside the star can be expressed in terms of Rastall, ϵ, and compactness, C = 2GM/Rc
2, parameters. Using NICER and X-ray Multi-Mirror Newton X-ray-observational constraints on the mass and radius of the pulsar PSR J0740+6620, we determine the Rastall parameter to be at most ϵ = 0.041 in the positive range. The obtained solution provides a stable compact object; in addition the squared sound speed does not violate the conjectured sound speed

unlike the general relativistic treatment. We note that no equations of state are assumed; the model however fits well with linear patterns with bag constants. In general, for ϵ > 0, the theory predicts a slightly larger-size star in comparison to general relativity for the same mass. This has been explained as an additional force, due to matter–geometry coupling, in the hydrodynamic equilibrium equation, which contributes to partially diminishing the gravitational force effect. Consequently, we calculate the maximal compactness as allowed by the strong energy condition to be C = 0.735, which is ∼2% higher than general relativity prediction. Moreover, for the surface density at saturation nuclear density ρ
nuc = 2.7 × 1014 g cm−3, we estimate the maximum mass M = 4M

Some dwarf galaxies are within the Mondian regime at all radii, i.e., the gravitational acceleration provided by the observed baryons is always below the threshold of g
† ≃ 1.2 × 10−10 m s−2. These dwarf galaxies often show cores, in the sense that, assuming Newton’s gravity to explain their rotation curves, the total density profile ρ(r) presents a central plateau or core (

« Le machamba, c’est pour la vie ». Les contradictions de la paysannerie au Mozambique, dans un contexte de précarité
Authors: Castel-Branco Ruth , Pons-Vignon Nicolas , Tinel Bruno
Published: November 2022

Les dynamiques de classe du changement agraire en Afrique ont fait l’objet de débats importants. Dans son ouvrage de référence, Femmes, greniers et capitaux , Meillassoux prédisait en 1975 la cannibalisation de la paysannerie, avec la domination croissante des relations capitalistes dans les campagnes. Pourtant, près d’un demi-siècle plus tard, la paysannerie reste une construction sociale, économique et politique pertinente. En s’appuyant sur le cas du Mozambique, cet article explore les significations contradictoires de la paysannerie dans le capitalisme contemporain. La première section retrace la création du paysan-prolétaire en Afrique australe, en s’appuyant sur les travaux de Meillassoux sur la « communauté domestique ». La deuxième partie explore les différentes manières dont les camponeses improvisent leur subsistance à travers trois cas. L’article conclut que la paysannerie incarne un ensemble contradictoire de significations qui reflètent les processus de production de marchandises plutôt qu’un passé précapitaliste.
Économie du développement : la revanche d’Albert Hirschman
Authors: Tinel Bruno
Published: November 2022

Alors que l’économie politique du développement a été proclamée morte et enterrée il y a trente ans, notamment par Paul Krugman, la parution récente de l’ouvrage de Cramer, Sender et Oqubay montre qu’il n’en est rien. Après avoir retracé les termes du reflux relatif de l’économie politique du développement, initiée par Hirschman, au profit du mainstream porté par le consensus de Washington durant les années 1980, ce texte souligne la richesse, tant en termes de contenu que de méthode, d’une approche qui privilégie le pluralisme méthodologique, l’historicité et une vision systémique des questions de développement. Il analyse de manière critique la façon dont l’État est vu comme l’agent clé de la stratégie de développement, et présente le cadre analytique qui permet à une politique industrielle de prétendre à la transformation structurelle. La question de l’insertion dans la division internationale du travail est au cœur des débats car la voie est étroite entre, d’une part, une adaptation passive en fonction des dotations factorielles et, d’autre part, une volonté de déconnexion qui ne permet pas d’acquérir une véritable autonomie productive.
Les nouveaux visages de Marx après la Marx-Engels-Gesammtausgabe (MEGA 2 )
Authors: Musto Marcello , Fondu Guillaume
Published: November 2022

Marcello Musto examine les dernières publications de la Marx-Engels-Gesammtausgabe (MEGA 2 ), tâche de faire un bilan des documents et informations qu’elle fournit, et s’interroge sur la manière dont l’avancée de cette grande entreprise éditoriale modifie notre image de Marx. L’article s’arrête d’abord sur la formation de la conception matérialiste de l’histoire dans les années 1840, puis sur la longue et tortueuse genèse du Capital, sur l’activité politique commune de Marx et Engels au sein de l’AIT, et enfin sur les travaux – importants et originaux, longtemps mal connus, qui occupèrent les deux hommes dans leurs dernières années.
Des études de laboratoire à l’Anthropocène. Comment Bruno Latour a finalement presque accepté (un concept de) la nature
Authors: Frølund Sune , Dahl Rendtorff Jacob , Albert Nicole G.
Published: November 2022

Les géologues ont suggéré de nommer l’époque actuelle « Anthropocène » pour indiquer que les activités humaines ont atteint un impact sur l’environnement qui rivalise avec celui d’événements naturels comme l’érosion des sols, les orbites lunaires, la tectonique des plaques, etc. Il semble évident que le terme n’a de sens que s’il est possible de distinguer les événements anthropiques des événements naturels, c’est-à-dire les êtres humains de la nature. La grande influence de Bruno Latour sur le débat international autour des questions environnementales est indiscutable, mais surprenante si l’on considère qu’il s’est efforcé, au fil des ans, dans ses livres, articles et interviews, de contester le sens même du terme « nature ». Par conséquent, il a minimisé la pertinence du concept pour aborder la situation désastreuse actuelle concernant l’Anthropocène. Dans cet article, l’auteur tente de reconstituer les prises de position changeantes de Latour sur le concept de nature, en s’appuyant sur une sélection de ses œuvres jusqu’à la publication de Où atterrir ? Comment s’orienter en politique . Il s’avère que Latour a, dans une certaine mesure, abandonné sa première interprétation constructiviste de la nature comme « fabriquée » et a timidement commencé à accepter l’existence de la nature. Cependant, il n’a jamais défini un concept cohérent de la nature et, par conséquent, n’a pas non plus atteint une position stable sur les questions écologiques fondamentales.
Réflexothérapie occipito-podale et pathologie articulaire des membres
Authors: Boitout Guy , Vadala Jean-Pierre
Published: November 2022

La médecine distingue la réflexologie des réflexothérapies, apanage des professionnels de santé. La réflexothérapie occipito-podale est une podo-réflexothérapie de type topique. Ses bases scientifiques sont celles de la médecine. Ses indications sont la médecine du sport et l’arthrose. La représentation en 3D du corps dans le pied est une originalité de cette thérapie manuelle. Le traitement est envisagé avec une vision globale où tous les systèmes concourent à la restauration articulaire.
Segmenter les perceptions de la marque employeur chez des recrutés : quel(s) apport(s) RH ?
Authors: Grouille Romuald
Published: November 2022

Cet article étudie la segmentation (différencier les individus sur la base de critères afin d’atteindre un objectif) des perceptions d’une marque employeur (ME) sur une période peu étudiée : l’entrée dans l’organisation, moment clé pour comprendre les mécanismes liant ME et fidélité car marquant le passage d’une perception externe à interne de la marque, dont l’(in)adéquation vaut (ir)respect du contrat psychologique. Nos résultats attestent d’un intérêt à segmenter la ME selon des cibles RH, tant en termes d’antécédents, de contenu ou de ses conséquences sur la fidélité. Une telle segmentation revêt une dimension stratégique car permettant une gestion de la ME spécifiquement tournée vers des profils en tension.
Quelles implications doctrinales d’un conflit de « haute intensité » en Europe ?
Authors: Yché André
Published: November 2022

Après des décennies dédiées aux Opex, les armées françaises pourraient se retrouver face à un conflit de haute intensité en Europe, conséquence possible de la guerre en Ukraine. Il importe donc de réfléchir aux implications d’une telle mutation de la conflictualité et d’en tirer les enseignements notamment doctrinaux.
Cuba 1962, crise nucléaire
Authors: Wodka-Gallien Philippe
Published: November 2022

Il y a juste 60 ans, la crise de Cuba posait la question de l’emploi de l’arme nucléaire et de la dissuasion. Le sang froid de J. F. Kennedy permit d’éviter l’escalade sans pour autant humilier l’URSS. À l’heure de la guerre en Ukraine, réétudier cet épisode de tension reste indispensable pour comprendre la grammaire nucléaire.
Fuir la Pologne et survivre à la Shoah en Union soviétique
Authors: Chopard Thomas
Published: November 2022

Cet article analyse la fuite et la survie pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale des Juifs de Pologne en Union soviétique, qui fut le principal lieu de survie des Juifs polonais. S’inscrivant dans le cadre du projet Lubartworld, l’article prend le parti d’une microhistoire transnationale en analysant simultanément les caractéristiques individuelles et les trajectoires des Juifs de la ville de Lubartów, près de Lublin. La population juive qui fuit la ville à l’automne 1939 devant l’avancée allemande, et plus encore celle qui survit en Union soviétique, se distingue par un certain nombre de traits : jeunesse, réseau familial, absence d’enfant, inclination avant-guerre à la mobilité, prédominance masculine. Articulant analyse des politiques soviétiques de gestion de ces populations étrangères et étude des trajectoires, l’article distingue ensuite les différentes formes de mobilité subies par les Juifs lubartowiens tout en soulignant l’entrelacement des expériences en territoire soviétique, marquées par la déportation dans l’univers du goulag, l’enrôlement par le travail, l’évacuation et la fuite.
Un premier tournant libéral dans les assurances ? La direction des Assurances et la personnalisation des primes de la responsabilité civile automobile (années 1960-1970)
Authors: Caranton Julien
Published: November 2022

Cette contribution propose de revenir sur la manière dont les hauts fonctionnaires de la direction des Assurances ont conçu le prix de la responsabilité civile automobile au cours des décennies 1960-1970. Au milieu des années 1960, ceux-ci affirment que la loi des grands nombres permet de distinguer de grandes catégories d’assurés en fonction du risque que ceux-ci représentent. Il existerait donc un juste prix de cette assurance pour chaque classe d’assurés. En revanche, parce qu’il y a des conducteurs irresponsables, il serait nécessaire, selon un principe de justice sociale, de tendre vers une personnalisation des primes à l’intérieur de ces classes d’équivalence. Nous montrons que ce cadre de pensée résulte de la rencontre, au début des années 1960, de deux arguments. Le premier est celui de justesse de calcul avancé par une poignée d’actuaires et statisticiens formés durant l’entre-deux-guerres aux statistiques mathématiques et à l’économétrie. Le second argument est celui de justice sociale défendu par des hauts fonctionnaires marqués par une forme spécifique de libéralisme. En revenant sur la genèse de cette conception puis sur la manière dont elle a été reçue par les acteurs de l’assurance, cet article souligne la nécessité de séquencer plus finement la période des Trente Glorieuses en identifiant les projets de réformes libérales qui se formalisent dans l’espace politico-administratif dès le milieu des années 1960.
Que peuvent apporter le numérique et les « big data » à la politique comparée ?
Authors: Boyadjian Julien
Published: November 2022

La révolution numérique et le phénomène des « big data » invitent les sciences sociales à questionner sous un jour nouveau leur rapport à la connaissance et au savoir. Cette note de recherche propose d’élargir ce débat au champ de la politique comparée, en discutant des apports épistémologiques de ces nouvelles approches numériques. L’article invite dans le même temps à questionner les enjeux et limites de ces nouveaux terrains et outils, en les réinscrivant dans certains débats scientifiques inhérents à la politique comparée.
Usages électoraux des big data . Un modèle américain ?
Authors: Theviot Anaïs
Published: November 2022

Depuis la victoire de B. Obama en 2008, la référence au « modèle » américain est récurrente chez les travailleurs de la donnée européens. Ce regard porté outre-Atlantique permet de vendre leurs prestations en big data électoral en faisant écho à l’imaginaire collectif qui associe le territoire américain – et sa fameuse Silicon Valley – à l’innovation numérique. L’ambition de cet article est de saisir et d’analyser les logiques de circulation : comment un « modèle » est-il construit dans le cadre américain ? Comment est-il importé et approprié dans un contexte très différent ? Comment l’importation de ce modèle et son adaptation est-il mis en scène par les professionnels du icro-ciblage électoral français ? Nous verrons que ce modèle n’est pourtant pas une reprise à l’identique dans la pratique, en raison de budgets, de cultures, de structuration partisane, et d’un cadre législatif – notamment en termes de protection des données personnelles – très différents. Notre enquête souligne un changement dans le discours des prestataires en big data électoral français : ils cherchent à présent à s’en démarquer – notamment suite à la victoire de D. Trump et au scandale de Cambridge Analytica – et à valoriser les particularités européennes pour vendre leurs services, censés être plus éthiques.
