EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF ENERGY PARAMETERS OF BULK VIBROSEPARATION OF BULK PRODUCTS
Authors: Omelyanov Oleg
Published: June 2022

The article presents the results of experiments to evaluate vibration parameters when using spatial oscillation excitation drive. Among the main directions of the intensification of the vibration technological action during separation of bulk agricultural products, not only the adjustment of amplitude-frequency characteristics can be noted, but also the improvement of the geometric and structural parameters of the drive mechanisms. Currently, in the processes of separation or classification of bulk masses by the method of siting separation, fixed sieves are displaced by sieves receiving an additional power pulse in order to intensify this processing process. The developed scheme of the drained vibration process involves the oblique location of the working body, which allows to implement the creation of spatial oscillations of the sieve surface. The developed experimental model of the spatial oscillation screen and the studies carried out to obtain graphic dependence of the energy consumption on the process of treating crushed grain material from changes in mass, geometric and structural parameters of the oscillating system. When choosing a rational mode of vibration cutting of bulk products as the evaluation criteria used the eccentricity of the drive shaft, the angle of the tilt surface, the value of the energy consumption and the pattern of its change in the conditions of variation of the power pulse when the eccentricity of the drive shaft, the trajectory of the movement of the sieve elements and the, bulk mass by changing the angle the inclination of the working container, the measurability of the oscillatory movement from the flat to the spatial parameters of the developed vibro-industry, corresponding to the configuration of the structural parameters. Experimental studies have shown the effectiveness of the use of spatial oscillations of the sieve surface during separation of bulk masses, made it possible to substantiate the structural parameters of the vibratory screen.
INVESTIGATION OF PULSE VIBRATION OF THE PERIODICALLY WORKING INJECTOR OF THE MILKING WASHING SYSTEM
Authors: Babyn Ihor
Published: June 2022

As a result of the analysis of technical and technological support of washing of milking installations it is established that the most effective are circulating systems of washing with regulated formation of a stopper mode with use of air injectors on the basis of automatic control. The consequences of periodic operation of the injector is the phenomenon of hydraulic shock, which is caused by a sudden change in the phase distribution of the flow of two-phase washing solution. This leads to a sudden change in the momentum of the two-phase washing solution, causing a pressure wave moving through the system. This pressure wave can lead to the destruction of milk deposits on the walls of the milk line, as well as to possible damage to the equipment of the milk system. The aim of the study is to increase the efficiency of the milking system flushing system by using pulsed vibration of a periodically operating injector. As a result of numerical simulation of the process of washing the milk line of the milking parlor using an injector in the software package STAR-CCM + was determined by the dynamics of changes in vacuum pressure at a distance from the injector (p (0 m), p (1 m), p (2 m), p ( 3 m), p (4 m), p (5 m)) and the dynamics of changes in the content of components of the multiphase medium (washing solution αf, air αg, milk αm) for four options: the injector is constantly closed, the injector is constantly open and the injector is periodically opened (1 s and 9 s) and closes (1 s and 9 s). It is established that the use of a periodic injector allows to reduce the milk content in the milk line faster and by a larger value, which indicates a better washing process. The addition of the physical-mathematical apparatus of the hydraulic shock phenomenon for a periodically operating air injector of the flushing system allowed to establish that the rate of pressure change depends on the velocities and concentrations of phases of two-phase washing solution, ie its flow regime and shock wave propagation velocity. Therefore, the rate of pressure change Δp / Δt is chosen as a criterion for the action of hydraulic shock.

Published: June 2022

Tras 50 años de investigación y estudio en el ámbito de la variación lingüística, el profesor Juan Andrés Villena Ponsoda se retira oficialmente de la actividad laboral. Su contribución al desarrollo de la sociolingüística variacionista en el escenario internacional es significativa y ha estado centrada principalmente -ya sea desde perspectivas empíricas o teóricas- en la variación sociofonológica. Juan Villena puede ser considerado uno de los investigadores más influyentes en la sociolingüística hispánica de las últimas décadas; no en vano, es el responsable de introducir y desarrollar el análisis de mesonivel (redes sociales) en la dialectología social en España.

En este monográfico hemos querido reunir, como muestra de merecido homenaje, trabajos inéditos de colegas de profesión que han mantenido vínculos académicos con el profesor Villena que, no obstante, trascienden lo puramente profesional y se trasladan al ámbito personal. Porque de entre las múltiples virtudes que atesora Juan, es su humanidad la que más destaca. Por esta razón, más allá del posible valor divulgativo que pueda atribuírsele a este monográfico, con él hemos querido celebrar la enorme dicha de haber conocido y aprendido de su generosa sabiduría.
La percepción social del seseo sevillano y sus implicaciones para la norma sevillana
Authors: Regan Brendan
Published: June 2022

Este estudio analiza las evaluaciones sociales del seseo y la distinción en el habla sevillana. Con este objetivo se ha llevado a cabo un experimento de pares falsos (matched‐guise) en el que el habla espontánea de cuatro hablantes sevillanos se ha manipulado digitalmente para que las frases solo variaran en las realizaciones de las fricativas coronales, creando guises del seseo y de la distinción. Los resultados, basados en las respuestas de 98 oyentes sevillanos, indican que, en términos globales, los dos patrones de pronunciación evaluados (distinción y seseo) no se valoran de manera diferente, es decir, en general no se podría considerar que uno presente más prestigio que el otro; sin embargo, cuando se tiene en cuenta el nivel educativo de los evaluadores, se observa que aquellos que presentan un nivel menor de educación formal no percibieron ninguna diferencia en cuanto al estatus, la formalidad y el prestigio ocupacional del hablante según la variante, mientras que los oyentes con un mayor nivel de educación formal asociaron un estatus social más elevado, más formalidad y una ocupación más prestigiosa a los guises de la distinción que a los del seseo. Esto indica que la norma sevillana ha perdido su influencia entre los hablantes con niveles educacionales más altos, pero sigue actuando como norma de prestigio regional entre los hablantes con menos instrucción formal.
El español de los Estados Unidos: la velarización de la nasal alveolar final en el español isleño de Luisiana
Authors: Varela García Fabiola
Published: June 2022

Se ha debatido si la velarización de la nasal final existe en español isleño o si, por el contrario, es su ausencia el único rasgo privativo de esta variedad lingüística. Usando datos de grabaciones sociolingüísticas, nuestro estudio identifica 11.6% de velarización final total, con mayor frecuencia de velares que de alveolares en posición final prepausal, en sílaba tónica, después de vocal baja [a] y antes de vocal alta [u], dental oclusiva [d] y de nasal alveolar [n].
La percepción de las variedades cultas del español por parte de los madrileños. Un estudio de dialectología perceptiva a partir del PRECAVES XXI
Authors: Cestero Mancera Ana María , Paredes García Florentino
Published: June 2022

Este artículo se plantea el estudio del modo en que los madrileños perciben las ocho variedades cultas del español estudiadas en el Proyecto para el estudio de las creencias y actitudes hacia las variedades del español en el siglo XXI (PRECAVES XXI). El trabajo se estructura en torno a tres preguntas de investigación: 1) ¿los hablantes madrileños identifican o reconocen diferentes variedades cultas del español?, ¿en qué grado lo hacen?, 2) ¿cuál es la percepción que tienen los hablantes madrileños de proximidad o lejanía de las variedades cultas del español con respecto a la propia, la castellana?, y 3) ¿existe alguna variedad del español que pueda considerarse mejor o más prestigiosa para los madrileños? En la respuesta a estas cuestiones se aportan datos sobre la percepción que tienen los madrileños de la variación geolectal del español en el siglo XXI, que llevan a concluir que, aunque las diferencias percibidas entre las variedades cultas no son muy grandes —es decir, opera el modelo pluricéntrico del español—, sigue consolidada la idea de un español más prestigioso, que los madrileños asocian al de propia variedad, la variedad castellana.
Posibilidades de investigación en el ámbito de la variación léxica
Authors: Escoriza Morera Luis
Published: June 2022

El estudio sociolingüístico de la variación ha alcanzado en el nivel fonético un desarrollo mucho mayor que en otros niveles de análisis lingüístico como el léxico, a pesar de la clara utilidad de indagar sobre los condicionantes geográficos, sociales y contextuales en el uso de alternativas léxicas en el discurso. Es evidente la necesidad de continuar desarrollando proyectos coordinados y de explorar herramientas metodológicas basadas en las nuevas tecnologías, ya que la descripción sociolingüística del léxico reforzaría diferentes disciplinas lingüísticas, tanto aquellas con mayor tradición como la lexicografía o la enseñanza de lenguas, como otras más recientes como la lingüística clínica o la lingüística forense.
Raeding with the fingres: Towards a universal model of letter position coding
Authors: Baciero Ana , Gomez Pablo , Duñabeitia Jon Andoni , Perea Manuel
Published: June 2022

Letter position coding in word recognition has been widely investigated in the visual modality (e.g., labotarory is confusable with laboratory), but not as much in the tactile modality using braille, leading to an incomplete understanding of whether this process is modality-dependent. Unlike sighted readers, braille readers do not show a transposed-letter similarity effect with nonadjacent transpositions (e.g., labotarory = labodanory; Perea et al., 2012). While this latter finding was taken to suggest that the flexibility in letter position coding was due to visual factors (e.g., perceptual uncertainty in the location of visual objects (letters)), it is necessary to test whether transposed-letter effects occur with adjacent letters to reach firm conclusions. Indeed, in the auditory modality (i.e., another serial modality), a transposed-phoneme effect occurs for adjacent but not for nonadjacent transpositions. In a lexical decision task, we examined whether pseudowords created by transposing two adjacent letters of a word (e.g., laboartory) are more confusable with their base word (laboratory) than pseudowords created by replacing those letters (laboestory) in braille. Results showed that transposed-letter pseudowords produced more errors and slower responses than the orthographic controls. Thus, these findings suggest that the mechanism of serial order, while universal, can be shaped by the sensory modality at play.
DDQ in mechanochemical C–N coupling reactions
Authors: Bera Shyamal Kanti , Bhanja Rosalin , Mal Prasenjit
Published: June 2022

2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) is a commonly known oxidant. Herein, we report that DDQ can be used to synthesize 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles and quinazolin-4(3H)-ones via the intra- and intermolecular C–N coupling reaction under solvent-free mechanochemical (ball milling) conditions. In the presence of DDQ, the intramolecular C(sp2)–H amidation of N-(2-(arylideneamino)phenyl)-p-toluenesulfonamides leads to 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles and the one-pot coupling of 2-aminobenzamides with aryl/alkyl aldehydes resulted in substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives in high yields.

Perpetual Motion Wind Turbine Generator for Novelty Energy Harvesting System; Conceptual Design Approach
Authors: Alowaid Alotaibi  , Mohd Khairul Hafiz Muda  , Faizal Mustapha  , Izhal Abdul Halin  , Noorfaizal Yidris
Published: June 2022

This paper deals with optimal design of energy harvesting system with perpetual motion. This design gives flexibility in promoting new sources of generation of electrical energy. The demand of electrical energy is increasing exponentially day by day so it is necessary to find alternative ways of energy generation at low cost. Additionally, by considering the fossil fuels are going to be replenished so the sources should be other than fossil fuels. The substitute of fossil fuels is the renewable energy source. Wind energy is one of major sources of renewable energy. The perpetual motion in this system is another new innovation. The whole system can be used for generating electrical energy without any harm to nature. With this system, the dependency on the continuous natural wind energy source can be eliminated at all. The perpetual motion system will produce the wind to energy harvesting system so that the wind turbine generator can be operated and then generate the electricity. The system also can be run continuously without depending on the current condition of the weather. The energy generated by perpetual motion machines (PMM) are usually discounted by the scientific community since they are considered impossible at industrial level but for small operations PMM can become very efficient.

Propuestas de mejoramiento de la regla fiscal de Chile
Authors: Fuentes Rodrigo , Schmidt-Hebbel Klaus , Soto Raimundo
Published: June 2022

La adopción de una regla fiscal ha sido una piedra angular en la construcción de un marco institucional moderno para la política fiscal en Chile en los últimos treinta años. A la luz de la evolución de las finanzas públicas en los últimos doce años, sin embargo, es posible concluir que, siendo en general exitosa, la actual institucionalidad fiscal falla en cinco dimensiones: la regla no garantiza la sustentabilidad fiscal al excluir una meta para la deuda pública, la inexistencia de cláusulas de escape no facilita el cumplimiento de la regla, el cálculo del balance fiscal tiene sesgos importantes, el rol asesor y fiscalizador del consejo fiscal está incompleto, y se ignoran los potenciales efectos adversos de la regla fiscal sobre la inversión pública. Para enfrentar los enormes desafíos fiscales de Chile proponemos varias reformas a las instituciones fiscales existentes, incluyendo complementar la actual regla de balance con una regla de límite a la deuda del Estado y con reglas de escape claras para situaciones extraordinarias; mejorar la transparencia y rendición de cuentas del marco institucional; considerar una planificación de horizonte plurianual de las finanzas públicas (incluyendo planes de inversión, gestión de activos y pasivos del Estado), y expandir significativamente las tareas y responsabilidades del Consejo Fiscal Autónomo.

BUILDING A CULTURE FOR EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
Authors: Kahle-Piaseck Lisai , Hyslop David
Published: June 2022

Employee engagement, frequently defined as the willingness of an employee to give one’s best work, can be a key indicator in organizational effectiveness. Many organizations routinely measure the level of employee engagement because of its relationship to organizational performance. Reflecting on current trends indicating low levels of employee engagement, there is a need to identify best practices used by organizations that have achieved high levels of employee engagement over an extended period. This qualitative case study of organizations in Northwest Ohio, which were voted as a top workplace by employees, aimed at identifying the key cultural and leadership elements necessary to achieve optimum employee engagement. Results of the study showed leaders were deeply committed to the employees of the organizations and employees had a high degree of confidence in their leaders. The commitment and confidence by both leaders and employees resulted in a workplace culture of trust, openness, respect and ongoing collaboration between leaders and employees, and employees with each other.

This study aims to analyze and find new things about the influence of internal and external corporate governance mechanisms, namely the proportion of independent commissioners, audit committee educational background, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and KAP size on financial distress in shipping sector companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Indonesia. In addition, this study also aims to determine whether liquidity can be used as a mediation in the model. This research is quantitative research with correlational method. The research population is shipping companies as many as 26 companies. Researched for 5 years period 2016-2020. The sample technique used is purposive sampling and the number of samples is 9 companies experiencing financial distress. The data processing and analysis technique used in this research is panel data regression using the E-views 10 application. The results of this study indicate that the internal and external mechanisms of corporate governance affect financial distress partially and simultaneously. Liquidity is a mediating variable for the relationship between the proportion of independent commissioners, managerial ownership and KAP size on financial distress. However, liquidity is not a mediating variable for the relationship between audit committee educational background and institutional ownership on financial distress.
BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN WEB-BASED IDEA MANAGEMENT AND ORGANISATIONAL COMPETENCES BY SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW AND FOUR CASE STUDIES
Authors: Mikelsone Elina , Segers Jean-Pierre , Frisfelds Janis
Published: June 2022

Web-based idea management systems are directly connected to the creativity process, driving innovation, and challenging “conventional” way of idea management. To fully utilise web-based idea management systems, it is important to research what competences organisations should reward and boost to improve idea management results using web-based idea management systems. This investigation identifies the academic trends and their interaction between overlapping scientific fields, such as idea management, idea management systems and the basic and techno-logical organisational competences using bibliometric and network publication analysis. To verify the results and gain additional practical insights, four practical case studies of idea management practises of different organisations and industries are included. The data is collected through systematic and scientific podcast interviews with different or-ganisation representatives. To achieve the purpose of this research and to support the interview process, the scientific publications and their citations on idea management, idea management systems and competences are systematically analysed. The findings of this study provide important conclusions of the current state of research and serve as the basis for further empirical research on the organisational competences relevant for web-based idea management systems and their applications. This research is the first step to answer the question: which competences do organisations need to establish or improve, so that open innovation technologies will “boost” not “kill” creativity? The results are presented in a critical review form to establish a framework for the body of knowledge gathered in this research. The study highlights what kind of competences should be stimulated to successfully apply web-based idea management systems. Organisations should stimulate overall organisational competences and technology management competences. From overall organisational competences this includes – analytical, communicative, social, and monitoring competences. From technology management perspective this includes – process competences, project, systems competences, opera-tions systems competences.

Digital transformation led to the development of novel business models and enabled the establishment of the digital business platforms ecosystem. Research on this interdisciplinary topic is wide but lacks cohesion. This paper aims at disclosing trends in the assessment of the scientific literature about the ecosystem of digital business platforms by using bibliometric methods such as citation analysis and co-word analysis. A dataset of 649 papers extracted from Web of Science database was used. VOSviewer was used to create maps based on the generated bibliographic data, including authors’ names, journals, and keywords. Our results show that the most influential authors in the field are Venkatraman, N. Venkat (815 citations), Bharadwaj, Anandhi (755 citations), and El Sawy, Omar (755 citations); the most influential journal is MIS Quarterly: Management Information Systems (2178 citations); and the main keywords are digital platform(s), digitalization, digital transformation, platforms, and business model – they are the tenets of the conceptual structure of the topic. This article contributes to a better understanding and profiling of the research biblio-metrics in value co-creation in the ecosystem of digital business models.
STYLISTIC DEVIATION AND PAKISTANI IDIOM: CREATIVE USE OF ENGLISH IN MONI MOHSIN’S DUTY FREE
Authors: Riaz Mehvish
Published: June 2022

The study highlights the creative use of deviation as a stylistic device for presenting linguistic innovations in the novel Duty Free (originally published in 2011) written in English by a Pakistani writer Moni Mohsin. It has been explored how and to what extent the eight types of deviation, such as lexical, grammatical, semantic, phonological, graphological, dialectal, deviation of register, and deviation of historical period suggested by Geoffrey N. Leech have been employed by Moni Mohsin in her novel. By identifying how morphological, compound, and idiomatic neologisms have been created, words from native languages have been borrowed, and innovative similes, metaphors, and tautologies rooted in Pakistani culture have been employed, the study helps in understanding the extent to which novel uses of English language create unique stylistic effects, add to the richness and vitality of English, and cause variation simultaneously. Deviation of historical period and certain subcategories of phonological deviation have not been found. The study has implications for Pakistani English, lexicology, stylistic foregrounding, and creative writing in English.
IMPACT OF MAJOR EVENTS ON HOUSING PRICES IN HANGZHOU BASED ON REGRESSION DISCONTINUITY
Authors: Zhang Ling , Zhu Lifei , Yang Linzun
Published: June 2022

Based on the regression discontinuity method, housing transaction price data of Hangzhou at the community level were used to assess the impacts of a serious of major events on housing prices in Hangzhou. The results show that the 2008 financial crisis had the strongest negative impact on housing prices, with prices decreasing by about 20%. Winning the right to host the G20 summit did not significantly impact housing prices, while holding the summit caused an increase in prices (about 10%). The first implementation of the home purchase restriction (HPR) caused a decreasing discontinuity of housing prices. Cancellation of the HPR did not cause a discontinuity effect, but the trend changed from negative to positive, and resumption of the HPR for local residents yielded the largest drop in housing prices, resulting in a 10% downward cut-point. However, the impact time was relatively short and did not change the rapid rising trend of housing prices.
An Improved GPU-based Ray-shooting Code for Gravitational Microlensing
Authors: Zheng Wenwen , Chen Xuechun , Li Guoliang , Chen Hou-Zun
Published: June 2022

We present an improved inverse-ray-shooting code based on graphics processing units (GPUs) to generate microlensing magnification maps. In addition to introducing GPUs to accelerate the calculations, we also invest effort into two aspects: (i) A standard circular lens plane is replaced by a rectangular one to reduce the number of unnecessary lenses as a result of an extremely prolate rectangular image plane. (ii) An interpolation method is applied in our implementation, achieving significant acceleration when dealing with the large number of lenses and light rays required by high-resolution maps. With these applications, we have greatly reduced the running time while maintaining high accuracy: The speed was increased by about 100 times compared with an ordinary GPU-based inverse-ray-shooting code and a GPU-D code when handling a large number of lenses. If a high-resolution situation with up to 10,0002 pixels, resulting in almost 1011 light rays, is encountered, the running time can also be reduced by two orders of magnitude.
The Effects of Circumstellar Dust Scattering on the Light Curves and Polarizations of Type Ia Supernovae*
Authors: Hu Maokai , Wang Lifan , Wang Xiaofeng
Published: June 2022

Observational signatures of the circumstellar material (CSM) around Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide a unique perspective on their progenitor systems. The pre-supernova evolution of the SN progenitors may naturally eject CSM in most of the popular scenarios of SN Ia explosions. In this study, we investigate the influence of dust scattering on the light curves and polarizations of SNe Ia. A Monte Carlo method is constructed to numerically solve the process of radiative transfer through the CSM. Three types of geometric distributions of the CSM are considered: spherical shell, axisymmetric disk, and axisymmetric shell. We show that both the distance of the dust from the SN and the geometric distribution of the dust affect the light curve and color evolutions of SN. We found that the geometric location of the hypothetical circumstellar dust may not be reliably constrained based on photometric data alone, even for the best observed cases such as SN 2006X and SN 2014J, due to the degeneracy of CSM parameters. Our model results show that a time sequence of broadband polarimetry with appropriate time coverage from a month to about one year after explosion can provide unambiguous limits on the presence of circumstellar dust around SNe Ia.

An updated, illustrated inventory of the marine fishes of the US Virgin Islands
Authors: Robertson D. Ross , Estapé Carlos J. , Estapé Allison M. , Richter Lee , Peña Ernesto , Victor Benjamin
Published: June 2022

The US Virgin Islands (USVI) include St. John and St. Thomas on the Puerto Rican Platform (PRP) and St. Croix, isolated by 2000 m deep water 45 km south of that platform. Previous inventories of the marine fishes of these islands include a comprehensive 2014 checklist of the fishes of St. Croix and a list of the fishes of the PRP produced in 2000. The latter list noted the locations of many records of the plateau’s fishes, allowing the construction of a combined inventory for St. John and St. Thomas. Those two islands are treated here as a single faunal unit because they are only 3.5 km apart on a shared shallow shelf with various islets and reefs in between. Here we provide updated information on those two USVI (St. Croix and St. John-Thomas) marine fish faunas. The additions to the St. Croix and St. John-Thomas inventories presented here are based on a combination of information from the two sources indicated above, more recent publications dealing with those faunas, a review of location records on various online sources of biogeographic data, and voucher photographs taken of fishes in the field by authors of this paper and other citizen scientists. This assessment increased the known fauna of St. Croix by 7.5% to 585 species. The inventory for St. John-Thomas increased by 39.9% from 401 species on the 2000 PRP list to 561 with the inclusion of records from other sources. On-site mtDNA (COI) barcodes are available for approximately one-third of the species of the St. John-Thomas fauna, but for only one species collected at St. Croix. A set of underwater photographs of 372 species (34 of them representing the sole record of a species) from St. John-Thomas and of 11 shallow-water species added to the St. Croix fauna is included. These represent occurrence vouchers and also are intended to facilitate future work that builds on the present compendium.

L’utopie est un concept controversé. Il n’existe pas de définition analytique sur laquelle la littérature, les sciences humaines et sociales pourraient s’accorder. Karl Mannheim, qui a posé les premiers fondements sociologiques du concept d’utopie, a noté un changement dans la forme de la pensée utopique à l’époque moderne. Confronté à la multiplicité des interprétations et au changement de l’utopie sur le temps, Norbert Elias a proposé « d’ouvrir des brèches » pour rendre transparent le changement de formes de l’utopie. Cet article examine la transformation de l’utopie – en partant du principe d’Elias – en six étapes. Il esquisse la transformation (1) De l’utopie spatiale à l’utopie temporelle / (2) Du contre-monde imaginaire au projet anticipateur / (3) De l’anticipation à la réalisation consécutive de l’utopie / (4) De la désignation externe péjorative au type idéal /(5) De la science à l’utopie (6) De l’utopie du monde du travail à l’utopie de la société de communication. L’analyse s’achève par un dialogue fictif entre Jürgen Habermas et Karl Popper.
Les lieux des utopies. Petit catalogue commenté
Authors: Paquot Thierry
Published: June 2022

L’utopie est un genre littéraire, né en Occident en 1516 avec la publication de l’ouvrage de Thomas More,  Utopia , qui va renouveler la pensée politique en proposant une alternative au système en place. À partir de cette « matrice » de nombreuses utopies vont être publiées ou expérimentées. Aussi, possédons-nous un large  corpus , tant écrit que vécu, qui nous permet de comprendre la place attribuée par ces utopies à l’architecture et à l’urbanisme. L’auteur entreprend ici un premier repérage panoramique de cette thématique, qui montre à quel point l’utopie est  plurielle  et que chacune possède sa conception territoriale et son expression bâtie. Une utopie architecturale, ou une utopie urbaine, n’existe pas sans une utopie politique, sociétale. Les Utopiens changent d’abord leurs manières de vivre afin de s’émanciper des contraintes imposées par le système qu’ils contestent (sexualité, éducation, travail, création, nature…) et ce n’est que dans un second moment qu’ils inventent de nouveaux logements et un autre environnement…
Utopie et histoire. Esquisse du cas de l’Islam
Authors: Maouhoub Mohamed
Published: June 2022

Cet article vise moins à définir les concepts d’histoire et d’utopie qu’à considérer la façon dont ils fonctionnent. Pour ce faire, nous nous appuyons sur ce que les historiens de l’Islam ont appelé « la constitution de Médine », qui définit la cohabitation pacifique entre plusieurs confessions – musulmane, juive, chrétienne, etc. Ce document de deux pages, qui a servi de cadre pour jeter les bases de la société islamique et de sa gouvernance, a été une source d’inspiration pour un ensemble de mouvements politiques réformistes tout au long de l’histoire musulmane. A travers lui, cet article explore le fonctionnement de l’utopie, dont chaque réalisation n’est qu’une idéologie en attente d’être supplantée par une idéologie plus radicale encore, démêlant ainsi les voies complexes qui ont présidé à l’histoire musulmane.
Auroville, archétype ou antonyme d’utopie ?
Authors: Obadia Lionel
Published: June 2022

Communauté à vocation spirituelle et universelle fondée il y a un peu plus d’un demi-siècle en Inde du Sud, Auroville incarne par excellence la complexité et les paradoxes des utopies du XX e  siècle. Inscrite dans une cité qui a traduit ses idéaux en réalisations architecturales et esthétiques concrètes, attachée à une volonté de poursuivre son « programme » malgré les difficultés rencontrées, Auroville cristallise les espoirs et déceptions de ceux et celles qui réfléchissent à la pertinence du concept en ce tournant de millénaires. Mais plus qu’une discussion sur la notion d’utopie elle-même, appliquée à ce projet spirituel original dans son contenu (un mélange d’hindouisme et de scientisme) et dans sa forme, cet article entend surtout, conformément à l’approche anthropologique qui est retenue, réévaluer le terme sur la base de l’usage qu’en font les principaux concernés : les Auroviliens.
L’Utopie du peuple ? Commentaire sur les propos autour de la démocratie dans la Chine contemporaine
Authors: Zhiqi Nie
Published: June 2022

Dans le monde de la recherche de la Chine contemporaine, il existe des points de vue représentatifs sur l’utopie du peuple. L’un est représenté par He Qing qui remet en question l’authenticité du concept de peuple en s’appuyant sur les opinions de certains chercheurs français, et le considère comme une utopie impossible, avant d’aller jusque dans la négation de la démocratie elle-même et l’approbation de l’idéal confucéen de gouverner pour le peuple. L’autre point de vue est incarné par Wang Shaoguang qui, dans une série d’ouvrages et d’articles, prône une imagination parfaite du peuple à partir de l’idéal démocratique de gouverner par le peuple, et ainsi critique sévèrement la démocratie représentative occidentale comme une fausse démocratie ou une électocratie qui rejette le gouvernement par le peuple. Paradoxalement, bien que Wang Shaoguang et He Qing aient des prises de position catégoriquement opposées sur la question de savoir s’il faut soutenir la démocratie ou non, Wang finit par avoir une conception élitiste de la politique. Notre article vise donc à dresser un bilan de ces deux points de vue et de les analyser, en soulignant que l’origine de leur rejet de l’idéal démocratique repose sur une fausse imagination de l’utopie du peuple, où le peuple est considéré à tort comme une entité définie. Sur cette base, nous soutenons que l’utopie du peuple doit être reconstruite dans la perspective de l’indéfini afin de défendre une véritable démocratie.
Rêver le vin : les potentialités utopiques du terroir
Authors: Dutton Jacqueline
Published: June 2022

Le vin et le terroir, tout comme l’utopie, sont des concepts ambigus, dynamiques, qui résistent aux définitions faciles ou fixes. Chacun revêt une signification différente selon le contexte, que ce soit lié aux traditions historiques, aux disciplines académiques, aux priorités socio-politiques, voire aux découvertes scientifiques. La richesse matérielle et sémiologique du vin, du terroir et de l’utopie fournit un champ propice à l’étude des pratiques, des valeurs et des idées fondatrices pour cerner leurs influences réciproques et leurs échanges révélateurs. Cet article cherche à offrir quelques pistes de réflexion sur l’utopie comme grille d’analyse pluridimensionnelle pour éclairer l’interpénétration des procédés pratiques et des projets utopiques dans l’élaboration du vin, en tant qu’objet de culture matérielle.
Utopie et capitalisme : un corps à corps
Authors: Labate Sergio , Rouillier Célie
Published: June 2022

Que se passe-t-il lorsque le capitalisme, compris comme science, ne réussit plus à rendre raison du réel ? Que se passe lorsque les lois fondamentales du capitalisme rencontrent une résistance dans la réalité sociale (la radicalisation des inégalités par exemple) ou dans la réalité naturelle (la crise écologique qui oblige à repenser radicalement le postulat capitaliste du développement permanent) ? Se manifeste alors une connexion essentielle et inquiétante entre capitalisme et utopie, qui caractérise le temps présent.
Sneaker design, production, and marketing in post-war Britain, West Germany, and the United States, 1940s-1979
Authors: Turner Thomas
Published: June 2022

Les baskets modernes (sneakers) sont liées aux sports athlétiques, à l’utilisation de matériaux synthétiques et à la visibilité des marques. Elles sont très utilisées comme chaussures de tous les jours depuis plus de quarante ans. Cet article adopte une approche comparative et porte sur les origines de cette catégorie de chaussures, à la fois objet manufacturé et segment de marché, en Grande-Bretagne, en Allemagne de l’Ouest et aux États-Unis au cours des trois décennies qui ont suivi la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Au cours de cette période, les marchés de masse pour les baskets ont émergé parallèlement à la popularité croissante du sport en tant qu’activité de loisir et aux initiatives des États pour promouvoir la condition physique. Les baskets étaient conçues comme des chaussures spécialisées pour le sport et l’entraînement, et étaient commercialisées comme des produits distincts de leurs précédents plus simples. Cependant, sur chaque marché, des différences subtiles sont apparues dans la manière dont les baskets se sont développées. En examinant trois contextes nationaux, cet article met en évidence les caractéristiques partagées par les économies occidentales au sortir de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il démontre que les changements de la nature des sports, le développement des technologies et matériaux, les rivalités entre les différents producteurs ainsi que les pressions du commerce international, ont contribué à façonner la conception et le marketing des baskets. En analysant les diverses forces en jeu dans la création des baskets modernes, l’article offre un nouvel éclairage sur l’histoire récente et les produits qui en sont issus, tout en montrant comment les produits manufacturés courants sont le résultat à la fois des forces historiques plus larges et des réalités prosaïques du commerce.

Les chrétiens d’Orient ont-ils encore un avenir ?
Authors: Yégavian Tigrane
Published: June 2022

Le nombre des chrétiens d’Orient est en diminution constante et leur avenir paraît menacé. Leur histoire montre pourtant des phases diverses, en particulier leur contribution à la renaissance arabe. L’islamisation a changé la donne, mais, comme le montrent quelques exemples, un renouveau peut venir des diasporas.
L’improbable transformation numérique de la santé
Authors: Létourneau Laura
Published: June 2022

«  Trop complexe, trop politique, trop fragmenté, intransformable… n’y va pas !  » dit-on à Laura Létourneau quand lui est proposée la responsabilité de la transformation numérique de la santé, en binôme avec le directeur d’une clinique privée. Pourtant, depuis, la feuille de route numérique coconstruite avec les parties prenantes, à partir des irritants recensés, s’est imposée à tous. Cette réussite est le fruit de la mise en tension de l’écosystème et d’engagements tenus les uns après les autres. N’est-ce pas la méthode des GAFAM ?
