Authors: Oliveira Ana Beatriz Bortolozo de , Ribeiro Aline Rimoldi , Madeira Fernanda Fernandez , Cesaretto Natália Regina , da Rosa João Aristeu , Azeredo-Oliveira Maria Tercília Vilela de , Alevi Kaio Cesar Chaboli
Published: July 2019

Chagas disease is a public health problem caused by the Trypanosoma cruzi, and the T. cruzi I (TcI) and T. cruzi II (TcII) groups are considered important genotypes from the clinical point of view. Currently, the groups need to be molecularly analyzed for their identification; thus, we cytogenetically analyzed these groups with the objective of developing more accessible techniques for the characterization of these parasites. TcI and TcII groups were differentiated by nucleus characterization with lacto-acetic orcein (TcI—nucleus with positive heteropycnosis and TcII—nucleus with negative heteropycnosis), emphasizing the importance of the application of this technique for epidemiological and clinical studies of Chagas disease.
Recommended Practice for Pass-Thru Vehicle Programming
Authors:   Vehicle E E System Diagnostic Standards Committee
Published: July 2019

This SAE Recommended Practice provides the framework to allow reprogramming software applications from all vehicle manufacturers the flexibility to work with multiple vehicle data link interface tools from multiple tool suppliers. This system enables each vehicle manufacturer to control the programming sequence for electronic control units (ECU’s) in their vehicles, but allows a single set of programming hardware and vehicle interface to be used to program modules for all vehicle manufacturers.

This document does not limit the hardware possibilities for the connection between the PC used for the software application and the tool (e.g., RS-232, RS-485, USB, Ethernet…). Tool suppliers are free to choose the hardware interface appropriate for their tool. The goal of this document is to ensure that reprogramming software from any vehicle manufacturer is compatible with hardware supplied by any tool manufacturer.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (ARB) have proposed requirements for reprogramming vehicles for all manufacturers by the aftermarket repair industry. This document is intended to meet those proposed requirements for 2004 model year vehicles. Additional requirements for the 2005 model year may require revision of this document, most notably the inclusion of SAE J1939 for some heavy-duty vehicles. This document will be reviewed for possible revision after those regulations are finalized and requirements are better understood. Possible revisions include SAE J1939 specific software and an alternate vehicle connector, but the basic hardware of an SAE J2534 interface device is expected to remain unchanged.
Retrieving Linguistic Information from a Corpus on the Example of Negation in Chinese
Authors: GAJDOŠ Ľuboš
Published: July 2019

The paper deals with corpus analysis of negation in Chinese, namely the negatives bù 不 and méi/ méiyǒu没/没有. The adverbs BU and MEI are two of the most frequent negatives in Chinese. The aim of this study is to present statistical data together with linguistics analysis. The results provide empirical evidence of discrepancy between “authentic” language data versus linguistic prescription with practical implications for second-language acquisition. The findings inter alia suggest a new approach to verb categorisation.
Korean Orthography of Loanwords and spelling problems with proper nouns from Slovenia
Authors: CHANG Minyoung , SHIGEMORI BUČAR Chikako
Published: July 2019

This paper firstly introduces The Korean Orthography of Loanwords and its history. Recently with more cultural and economic exchanges between Korea and Slovenia, the Korean Orthography guidelines for Slovene words are needed to guide words of Slovene origin when settling in Korean. Although Serbo-Croatian is not an official language of Slovenia, some Slovene words are currently written in Korean according to the guidelines for Serbo-Croatian in KOL. Therefore, we exam the current Korean orthography examples of Slovene words and suggest amendments based on the origin pronunciation. In order to avoid further confusion and to provide the foundation of Korean Orthography of Slovene words, we firstly demonstrated a comparison table of Slovene alphabet (abeceda) and Korean alphabet (Hangeul) supported with examples of Slovene words, and then suggested detailed guidelines on how to write Slovene words in Hangeul.
Empty category in Persian relative clauses
Authors: MOBARAKI Mahmoud , MOSAFFA JAHROM Abolfazl
Published: July 2019

Empty categories are one of the fundamental parts of generativist’s view towards language. Empty operators, the so-called null elements, which are syntactically active in relative clauses and possibly move into [spec, CP], have reportedly been found in different languages. However, there is no solid evidence for the existence of empty operators in Persian relative clauses. Despite this, syntactic evidences such as theta theory, argument structure and subjacency condition provide satisfactory provable tests in favor of their role in Persian grammar. Namely, Persian relative clauses contain resumptive pronouns which may be covert. Their movement into [spec, CP] can precisely account for subjacency effect in relative clauses. Resumptive pronouns can occupy the subject as well as the object position. This articles attempts to introduce empty operators to Persian syntax, and shows that in such a way it is possible to account for the peculiar behavior of the Persian complementizer “ke” and its obligatory nature.

Quanto à eficiência do processo de avaliação as respostas apresentaram dispersão mediana em relação ao conjunto de 16 questões do PMC, se assemelhando a pesquisas anteriores. Concluiu-se pela necessidade de melhoria no alinhamento estratégico dessas entidades, uma vez que os respondentes conhecem o planejamento estratégico, mas há lacunas importantes no desenvolvimento e controle de sua implementação.
Downslope windstorms in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec during Tehuantepecer events: a numerical study with WRF high-resolution simulations
Authors: Prósper Miguel A. , Sosa Tinoco Ian , Otero-Casal Carlos , Miguez-Macho Gonzalo
Published: July 2019

Abstract. Tehuantepecers or Tehuanos are extreme winds produced in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, blowing south through Chivela Pass, the mountain gap across the isthmus, from the Gulf of Mexico into the Pacific Ocean. They are the result of the complex interaction between large-scale meteorological conditions and local orographic forcings around Chivela Pass, and occur mainly in winter months due to cold air damming in the wake of cold fronts that reach as far south as the Bay of Campeche. Even though the name refers mostly to the intense mountain gap outflow, Tehuantepecer episodes can also generate other localized extreme wind conditions across the region, such as downslope windstorms and hydraulic jumps, which are strong turbulent flows that have a direct effect on the Pacific side of the isthmus and the Gulf of Tehuantepec. This study focuses on investigating these phenomena using high horizontal and vertical resolution WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) model simulations. In particular, we employ a 4-nested grid configuration with up to 444 m horizontal spacing in the innermost domain and 70 hybrid-sigma vertical levels, 8 of which lie within the first 200 m above ground. We select one 36 h period in December 2013, when favorable conditions for a strong gap wind situation were observed. The high-resolution WRF experiment reveals a significant fine-scale structure in the strong Tehuano wind flow, beyond the well known gap jet. Depending on the Froude number upstream of the topographic barrier, different downslope windstorm conditions and hydraulic jumps with rotor circulations develop simultaneously at different locations east of Chivela Pass with varied crest height. A comparison with observations suggests that the model accurately represents the spatially heterogeneous intense downslope windstorm and the formation of mountain wave clouds for several hours, with low errors in wind speed, wind direction and temperature.

Undergraduate Internships: Conflicting Interests
Authors: Greene David
Published: July 2019

Internships are becoming an important component in undergraduate programs across a wide range of disciplines. Escalating financial and scheduling conflicts have been found to force students to make difficult decisions regarding participation. This mixed methods case study was conducted in a human services undergraduate program that requires a 450-clock hour internship. It was hypothesized that a majority of students would recommend either a shorter internship, or elimination of the requirement entirely. The opposite was found. A significant majority (X2 [2, n = 86] = 47.53, p < .001) believed that the 450-clock hour internship was the appropriate length. This was consistent for females and non-traditional students, two at-risk groups for financial and scheduling conflicts. Qualitative responses suggested that students found successful ways to address the financial and scheduling concerns. This study provides support that students believe in the benefits of internship, even when facing financial and scheduling conflicts.

The Call to Get More Men Tested for HIV: A Perspective on What Policy Makers Need to Know for Implementing and Scaling up HIV Self-Testing in Rwanda
Authors: Dzinamarira Tafadzwa
Published: July 2019

Various reports by the World Health Organization and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS have indicated that, in 2017, only 75% of individuals who were living with HIV across the globe were aware of their HIV status. This calls for targeted interventions to ensure that more people get tested. To this end, different measures should be adopted to increase the uptake of HIV testing services, especially for populations with limited access, as well as those who are at higher risk and would otherwise not get tested, such as men. While HIV self-testing (HIVST) is a highly effective tool that can be used to increase the uptake of testing among men, various challenges are still being faced. The perspective herein examines the challenges being faced in Rwanda and recommends some key measures that can be put in place to ensure that these challenges are addressed effectively and efficiently. In this perspective, the author proposes several notable strategies that policy makers in Rwanda should consider for the effective implementation of HIVST programs: developing health education programs that aim to increase awareness among men; improving the usability of HIVST kits; establishing strategic distribution points for HIVST kits, such as distribution in communities and at voluntary male medical circumcision sites, as well as online purchasing options; and ensuring that there is a highly supportive climate that is conducive to successful implementation.
An Investigation of Kagera River Basin Land Cover Dynamics for Sustainability of Lake Victoria Water Regime
Authors: Hagai M.
Published: July 2019

This paper is reporting on an investigation done to assess land cover dynamics in KRB(Kagera River Basin) (KRB) over a period of 21 years i.e.1990-2011 using Remote Sensing, Hydrology and GIS techniques as a basis for initiating policy interventions for sustainability of Lake Victoria water regime.The extent of land cover changes in the KRB have not been quantified with the view of assessing the extent of exploitation of the natural resources.The assessment is important firstly for identification of causative factors and secondly as a mechanism for formulating necessary policies and remedial measures to that effect.Specifically, Landsat 5, Landsat 7 and ETM+ (2000) satellite images were used.Eight Land Cover classes were identified namely, Forests, Woodland, Bushland, Cultivated Land, Swamps, Grassland, Bareland and Urban areas.Hydrographical data were used to assess changes in quantity of water flowing from the KRB into Lake Victoria and relating it with land cover changes in KRB at in the period of study. Spatial data processing, analysis and interpretation were carried out in ERDAS Imagine and ArcGIS software environments; while water quantity data and other non spatial data were processed and analyzed in Microsoft Excel application 2007.

The study revealed a significant decline of vegetation cover and water quantity discharged from Kagera River to Lake Victoria over the study period. This contravenes the global efforts of ecological sustainability, which urge avoidance of depletion of natural resources for maintenance for ecological balance. These results are in early warning to the Management of Lake Victoria for its potential failure towards achieving the Millennium Development Goal on responsible consumption and protection of natural resources in proximity with Lake Victoria. The Management of Lake Victoria in collaboration with other relevant authorities should thus, take remedial measures to control further depletion of vegetation cover in KRB for sustainability of Lake Victoria and its ecosystem.

Academic English Proficiency Assessment Using a Computerized Adaptive Test
Authors: Cúri Mariana , Silva Vanessa
Published: July 2019

This paper describes the steps to convert a paper-and-pencil English proficiency test for academic purposes, consisting of multiple choice items administered following the Admissible Probability Measurement Procedure [24], adopted by the graduate program at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Sciences at the University of São Paulo (ICMC-USP), Brazil, to a computerized adaptive test (CAT) based on an Item Response Theory Model (IRT). Despite the fact that the program accepts various internationally recognized tests that attest non-native speakers English proficiency, such as the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) and the Cambridge English: Proficiency (CPE), for instance, its requirement is incoherent in public universities in Brazil due to the cost, which ranges from US$ 200.00 to US$ 300.00 per exam. The TAI-PI software (Computerized Adaptive Test for English Proficiency), which was developed in Java language and SQLite, started to be used to assess the English pro?ciency of students on the program from October, 2013. The statistical methodology used was defined considering the history and aims of the test and adopted Samejima's Graded Response Model [21], the Kullback-Leibler information criterion for item selection, the a posteriori estimation method for latent trait [2] and the Shadow Test approach [29] to impose restrictions (content and test length) on the test composition of each individual. A description of the test design, the statistical methods used, and the results of a real application of TAI-PI for graduate students are presented in this paper, as well as the validation studies of the new methodology for pass or fail classification, showing the good quality of the new evaluation system and examination of improvement using the IRT and CAT methods.
The RES-Induced Switching Effect Across Fossil Fuels: An Analysis of Day-Ahead and Balancing Prices
Authors: Gianfreda Angelica , Parisio Lucia , Pelagatti Matteo
Published: July 2019

The empirical literature on electricity markets has highlighted a strong cointegrating relationship governing the dynamics of electricity and fuel prices. More recently the massive introduction of RES in electricity generation, fostered by generous supporting schemes, has influenced the shape and position of the supply function and consequently the equilibrium prices. We believe that the new competitive scenario may have influenced the fuel-electricity nexus with a different impact in day-ahead and balancing markets. Empirical evidence of the evolving fuels-electricity nexus is shown looking at one Italian zone across two samples characterized by a significant change in the level of RES penetration. We conduct the analysis taking into account both day-ahead and, for the first time, balancing market sessions. Results indicate that fuel prices are much less relevant in determining the dynamics of electricity prices in recent years characterized by high RES penetration. On the contrary, taking into account flexible thermal sources, we show that in the second sample balancing and fuel prices (especially gas) are in a long run equilibrium.
How Do Oil Shocks Impact Energy Consumption? A Disaggregated Analysis for the U.S.
Authors: Van Hoang Thi Hong , Hussain Shahzad Syed Jawad , Czudaj Robert L. , Bhat Javed Ahmad
Published: July 2019

This paper investigates the interaction between energy consumption and oil shocks in the U.S. from 1974 to 2018 using monthly data. Its contributions rely on the double disaggregation of energy consumption and oil shocks in a time-varying context. Oil shocks are disaggregated into oil supply, oil demand and aggregated demand shocks following the method of Kilian (2009). Energy consumption is disaggregated according to the production source in distinguishing between renewable and non-renewable energy consumption (hydropower, geothermal, wood, waste, coal, natural gas and petroleum). The impulse response function results show that renewable energy consumption responds the most to aggregate demand and oil supply shocks while for non-renewable energy consumption, it is oil demand shocks. The dynamic connectedness results show that oil supply and demand shocks spillover the most to hydropower consumption while aggregate demand shocks spillover the less. However, these relationships change over time and recommend the flexibility of energy policies.

Making young professionals resilient in the field of safety and security

In this exploratory contribution, the central question is what will happen to students when they leave school and start looking for a job in security care. Three developments are addressed in this context: firstly, there are organizational changes: the municipal level has become increasingly important; in the second place, the complexity of the casuistry with which professionals are confronted is highlighted, and in the third place attention is paid to undesirable behavior with which professionals may be confronted while performing their work. What do these aspects mean for the resilience of the upcoming professional and the preparation for working life during training?

Authors: Wheeler John J. , Carter Stacy L. , Smith Samuel E.
Published: July 2019

Evidence-based practices in the field of special education within the United States has been well defined in the literature yet challenges persist with the widespread implementation of these practices within school settings. There are many factors that can negatively influence the portability of these practices in classroom settings that remain unaddressed in the literature. The results of a qualitative evaluation aimed at determining teacher’s perspectives on barriers to implementing evidence-based procedures in the area of positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) are described. Data analysis revealed several highly pertinent barriers that teachers face in their attempts to implement evidence-based practices in the classroom. Recommendations for minimizing these implementation barriers are discussed.
The importance of self-help groups in the life of people with intellectual disability of employed and ready for work
Authors: Skura Monika
Published: July 2019

Persons with intellectual disabilities experience various difficulties in fulfilling social roles, including vocational ones. Even vocational special schools, various career training courses often do not match demands. Therefore,an important aspect of the professional activation of this group of people is the presence of specialists who will help in defining the career path and areas of activ¬ity that are consistent with their competences and capabilities. At the same time, it is necessary to support self-help groups, which above all motivate to face new challenges.
The aim of this article is to attempt to show what role support groups play in the lives of adults with intellectual disability. The obtained data in the focus interviews show that people with various difficulties need the presence of other people with similar experiences. It is for them a community that helps to meet social and professional obligations.
Availability of public theaters for persons with disabilities
Authors: Mazurek Aleksandra
Published: July 2019

Accessibility is a prerequisite for participation in social life. The possibilities of a person with disability and environmental barriers determine the level of accessibility in various areas of cultural life. The degree of infrastructure adaptations and less visible symbolic interactions have a significant impact on the possibility of social participation and access to cultural artifacts by people from groups at risk of social exclusion. Theater is an area of art, an inseparable element of which is a meeting, and thus openness to what is different, conditions for establishing dialogue and performative interaction. In the Polish theater of recent years, the context of disability is more and more often perceived as a subject of artistic creation. The article discusses institutional theaters constituting significant culture-forming centers in individual regions and taking part in international festivals. The formal infrastructural availability of theatrical spaces to the needs of people with disabilities and the adaptation of the cultural offer to perceptive capabilities of people with different disabilities were analyzed. Other activities related to the social phenomenon of disability were also indicated, if it was possible.

The paper presents the results of research on milestones (significant events, critical points, crystallizing experiments) in the course of life of outstanding mathematicians and mathematically talented adolescents. The work covers the period of approximately last 80 years. Four distinct group of mathematicians had received their education and pursed their scientific careers at that time: late, distinguished professors of mathematics, distinguished professors of mathematics who are still alive, PhD students and doctors of mathematical faculties, laureates of mathematical olympiads.
The author’s intention was to indicate milestones – key events and moments in their history determined by the author (or those indicated by the interested) to reach the highest position and recognition in the field of mathematics. Those are, for example, important experiences in a person’s life that played a huge role in choosing mathematics as a direction for further development or reasserted that mathematics is the right choice. The considerations were based on a holistic, humanistic approach and a biographical approach from the perspective of Charlotte Bühler The course of human life. The techniques that have been used include document analysis and narrative interviews. According to the recommendations of Buhler’s results were presented graphically on the timelines.

The Hidden Dimension of Happy Cultural Cooperation
Authors: Sauvage Emmanuelle
Published: July 2019

Cross-cultural management research usually postulates that mutual expectations must be clearly assessed and that it is necessary for people from different cultural areas to share a common vision in order to efficiently collaborate. This research examines the link between intercultural understanding and relational efficiency by studying a “happy” and successful Franco-Latino-American case. It challenges the above-mentioned postulate and reveals that relational efficiency relies upon compatible positive understandings of a same situation rather than upon similar understandings, hence the notion ofproductive misunderstandings.
Distance psychique : une revue de la littérature sur les relations export (2007-2016)
Authors: Obadia Claude , Vida Irena
Published: July 2019

Cette étude reprend le cadre d’analyse de Prime et al. (2009) pour analyser les dix dernières années de la littérature export (2007-2016) sur la distance psychique de façon à voir si les problèmes soulevés à l’époque ont été résolus. L’étude examine quatre facettes du construit de la distance psychique : sa conceptualisation, son opérationnalisation, sa mesure et son réseau nomologique. Les problèmes rencontrés dans la littérature sont analysés et des solutions sont proposées. Enfin, la métaphore de la friction est présentée comme une alternative à la métaphore de la distance pour appréhender l’extranéité (foreignness, dans la littérature anglophone) dans les études sur les relations export et plus généralement en management international.

Published: July 2019

L’objectif de cet article est de comprendre les effets des pratiques de développement des compétences sur la performance adaptative, à travers la satisfaction des besoins fondamentaux. La technique des Partial Least Squares (PLS) a été appliquée aux données collectées lors d’une étude menée en 2015 auprès d’un échantillon de 161 salariés roumains de l’industrie automobile. Nos résultats montrent que le développement des compétences est positivement corrélé à la performance adaptative, avec une médiation partielle de la satisfaction des besoins fondamentaux. Le développement sur un poste de travail disposerait ainsi le salarié à mieux assumer des rôles inhabituels induits par la gestion d’un changement organisationnel.

Published: July 2019

Cet article s’intéresse au rôle des individus lorsqu’ils répondent à la complexité institutionnelle au quotidien. S’appuyant sur étude qualitative de la gestion de la multiplicité des normes en systèmes d’information, les résultats montrent que les individus s’engagent dans trois activités. (1) Le sensemaking consiste à traduire une logique dans le langage organisationnel et à la formaliser. (2) Les individus procèdent ensuite à une interprétation de la centralité et de l’incompatibilité entre logiques et les comparent entre elles. (3) Enfin, l’implémentation des logiques assure leur mise en action. Dotés de créativité, les individus peuvent alors bricoler et modifier les pratiques organisationnelles.

European universities traditionally embedded in the institutional logics of academic professionalism as well as democratization and regulation face the emergence of a new managerial logic generating conflicting demands and triggering hybrid organizational responses. This article investigates hybridization processes by analyzing how multiple institutional logics play out among organizational attributes (strategic positioning, organizational design, governance systems and identity) over long periods. The longitudinal cross-case analysis reveals different hybrid responses made of various forms of segmentation and blending. Furthermore, it informs the debate on the stability of hybrid responses by tracking various hybrid response paths.
Numérique et handicap au coeur de la réinvention des bibliothèques
Authors: Maumet Luc
Published: July 2019

Alors que les conditions d’accès à l’écrit des personnes en situation de handicap restent très difficiles en France, l’action des bibliothèques en direction de ces publics tient aujourd’hui, par bien des aspects, une place centrale. La prise en compte des besoins de ces 18 % de Français en situation de handicap amène à revoir l’organisation de l’ensemble des services sous le jour de l’accessibilité universelle, mais aussi à promouvoir des offres spécialisées. La révolution numérique ouvre de nouvelles perspectives tant pour les personnes empêchées de lire que pour les autres publics. Ces évolutions constituent une opportunité historique et une possibilité de renouvellement sans précédent pour les bibliothèques qui peuvent y trouver une légitimation concrète de leur utilité à l’ère du numérique.
La nouvelle carte du monde : bienvenue au XXIe siècle1

« Notre monde est en plein travail d’enfantement », disait Virginia Woolf. Dans les institutions culturelles, les bibliothèques, les musées, et plus généralement dans tout temple de la connaissance, le changement opère, force multiforme qui transforme et modèle nos habitudes de travail, nos pratiques et les rapports que nous entretenons avec nos usagers. Comment évaluer et valoriser la place que nous occupons dans la société dite du savoir ? Comment concilier le changement avec des notions aussi capitales que la vérité, la solidarité culturelle et sociale, ainsi que l’échange, ce puissant catalyseur de la dignité humaine ?

Apprivoiser les flux de données pour rendre ces dernières fiables et intègres, s’approprier les nouvelles technologies afin de bâtir une offre de qualité libre et ouverte, autant de chantiers à relever pour celles et ceux dont la mission première est de constituer un thésaurus du savoir, véritable agora à la disposition de tous, accessible, sincère et altruiste.

Le changement que nous observons est issu de quatre mutations majeures dans l’histoire humaine : la transformation de la carte financière, économique et commerciale du monde ; le déploiement de l’ère numérique qui change à tout jamais les rapports de l’être humain à la connaissance ; l’expansion démographique sur les continents asiatique et africain, qui bouleversera bientôt la répartition actuelle de la population mondiale ; enfin, les immenses défis environnementaux dont nos sociétés doivent se saisir sans plus tarder.

Des premières avancées de la société québécoise jusqu’à la création d’un laboratoire de renommée internationale en intelligence artificielle, l’histoire se tisse grâce à l’information que l’esprit humain expérimente comme matière première, et à laquelle il insuffle une énergie vitale. Le changement doit se poursuivre avec le partage de l’information sous toutes ses formes et auprès de tous, ce qui nécessite notamment de mettre fin à ce très vieux scandale qu’est l’illettrisme dans nos sociétés savantes et connectées. Cela demande aussi d’accélérer le passage à la civilisation numérique, par la mise en place du dépôt légal numérique, la numérisation des collections patrimoniales, la création de bibliothèques d’avant-garde qui font la part belle aux laboratoires d’innovation et de création, telle la future bibliothèque Saint-Sulpice.

Il nous faudra enfin porter notre réflexion sur l’avenir de la création : à l’âge de la robotique, des algorithmes, de l’intelligence artificielle et des données de masse, quel est donc l’avenir de la mémoire, de la production et du partage de la connaissance ?
Changer vers une nouvelle dimension ? La bibliothèque puzzle
Authors: de Miribel Marielle
Published: July 2019

Face à Internet et à toutes les facilités accessibles de chez soi, la bibliothèque doit se repositionner dans la société et dans les services qu’elle propose. Pour s’adapter à cette évolution permanente du métier, il est important de privilégier la fonction d’accueil et de service public, pour permettre à la bibliothèque de fidéliser ses publics et d’assurer sa pérennité. De ce fait, cette nouvelle dimension, qui modifie profondément les relations des bibliothécaires avec ses usagers, remet souvent en question leur rôle et leur personnalité. Comment faire face du mieux possible à ces nouveaux publics, ces nouveaux usages, ces nouvelles attentes, qui dépassent de loin les services traditionnels des bibliothèques ?
L’implantation des systèmes de gestion intégrée des documents (SGID) : une véritable gestion du changement à adopter, une variété d’acteurs en jeu
Authors: Alaoui Siham
Published: July 2019

L’implantation des dispositifs technologiques constitue de nos jours une réalité quotidienne dans les organisations publiques comme privées, ces dernières étant conscientes de l’apport indéniable que pourraient apporter ces technologies dans la création de valeur et dans l’optimisation de leurs processus d’affaires. Dans l’univers de la gestion documentaire, et notamment dans le secteur public, l’implantation des systèmes de gestion des documents vise à apporter une réponse forte aux enjeux du numérique quant à la constitution, la valorisation et la préservation de la mémoire organique et consignée, dont le caractère hybride la rend d’autant plus vulnérable. Ces systèmes de gestion visent à soutenir ces institutions dans leurs missions relatives à l’accès à l’information documentaire pour les citoyens. Afin d’assurer une meilleure intégration de ces systèmes dans le milieu organisationnel, il est vital d’instaurer une véritable gestion du changement. Le présent article traite de cette problématique, en exposant tout d’abord les particularités des systèmes de gestion intégrée des documents, puis en présentant la démarche à suivre pour la mise en place de ces dispositifs, et ce, en fonction d’un ensemble de propriétés organisationnelles et du rôle des acteurs organisationnels concernés.
Changer les comportements sans changer les modes de vie
Authors: Granier Benoit
Published: July 2019

Omniprésente dans les politiques publiques et les discours relatifs à l’énergie, la notion de transition énergétique a encore été assez peu problématisée par les sciences sociales. Dans la lignée des travaux récents consacrés en majorité à des cas européens, cet article propose une analyse originale portant sur la question du changement des comportements et des modes de vie dans la transition énergétique au Japon. L’archipel constitue un terrain d’étude fécond parce que la notion de transition y a suscité des traductions variées et des interprétations concurrentes depuis l’accident de Fukushima de mars 2011, mais aussi parce que la trajectoire japonaise partage de nombreux points communs avec celles de l’Allemagne et de la France notamment. En outre, comme dans bien d’autres pays, si la nécessité de changer les comportements et les modes de vie fait consensus, les conceptions de ce changement sont largement différentes selon les acteurs. Après avoir examiné les divergences en la matière, cet article montre que la transition énergétique conduite par l’État japonais se caractérise par un fort tropisme technologique, et par une vision peu ambitieuse du changement des comportements et des modes de vie. Par contraste avec les solutions de remplacement proposées par d’autres acteurs, le projet étatique se limite en effet à la réalisation d’économies d’énergie, à l’achat d’appareils efficients et d’autres dispositifs techniques, et à la participation des usagers à la gestion de l’énergie dans le cadre des réseaux électriques intelligents. En faisant l’impasse sur des changements plus ambitieux, ce choix repousse l’adoption de modes de vie plus sobres, perpétue de nombreuses pratiques énergivores et rend l’avenir du climat extrêmement dépendant des progrès technologiques.
Un territoire rural dans la transition énergétique : entre démarche participative et intérêts particuliers
Authors: Mazaud Caroline , Pierre Geneviève
Published: July 2019

Les espaces ruraux et périurbains constituent des réservoirs de ressources pour la production d’énergie renouvelable : foncier disponible dans des espaces éloignés des zones habitées, toits de bâtiments agricoles aménageables et biomasse mobilisable. Ils peuvent ainsi largement être exploités au bénéfice de la transition énergétique. L’étude de cas sur laquelle s’appuie cet article entend interroger la façon dont cette transition est pensée et mise en oeuvre sur un territoire souvent présenté comme exemplaire en matière de « dynamique énergétique ». L’enquête monographique menée sur le territoire rural des Mauges (région Pays de la Loire, France), labellisé « territoire à énergie positive pour la croissance verte », rend compte de la forte mobilisation d’acteurs locaux dans des projets de production d’énergie renouvelable : groupements d’achats de panneaux solaires photovoltaïques, filière bois-bocage-énergie, projet de construction d’unités de méthanisation et financement participatif d’un parc éolien. Unis par une conception entrepreneuriale de la transition énergétique, agriculteurs et particuliers tentent de se réapproprier les ressources locales, face à des investisseurs venant de l’extérieur du territoire. L’article analyse l’émergence et le montage de projets, en même temps que les motivations et profils des leaders. Derrière l’exemplarité du modèle affiché par ce territoire et le consensus qui semble unir la population locale autour de cette « dynamique énergétique », cet article explique en quoi les retombées économiques profitent avant tout à un petit groupe d’investisseurs dont beaucoup sont des agriculteurs qui cumulent responsabilités professionnelles et politiques locales.
