A few considerations concerning the presence of Hussite‑style war wagons as part of John Hunyadi’s army
Authors: Todika Raul‑Alexandru ,   ‘Babeş-Bolyai’ University, Cluj-Napoca
Published: October 2021

The main objective of this paper is to bring forward a subject that was long neglected by the Romanian historiography and Slavic studies: the military importance of the contingents of Bohemian mercenaries within the army of John Hunyadi, and the extensive usage of the Wagenburg and the Hussite war wagons as part of the improvements of the armed forces in the Medieval Kingdom of Hungary. These changes were made by John Hunyadi during the first half of the fifteenth century, in relation to the tactical and strategic necessities imposed by the wars fought against the Turks. My approach of the topic sheds light on the ability of John Hunyadi to use the offensive, defensive, and logistical potential of this rudimentary but extremely versatile and efficient war machine, and points out at the fact that the Kingdom of Hungary was, at that time, up to date with the fourteenth- and fifteenth-century military technologies. In addition, this paper explores a variety of Christian and Ottoman sources and compares these narratives in regard to the subject. The current Romanian historiography has failed to provide a comprehensive analysis of the Hussite-style war wagons, and thus the relevance of this paper is linked to broadening the perspective on the matter.
Data on the Egyptian Collection of the National Museum of Transylvanian History. The contribution of Baron Balázs Orbán to the creation of the Egyptian Collection of the Cluj History Museum
Authors: Mitu Melinda ,   National Museum of Transylvanian History
Published: October 2021

"This paper aims to highlight the contribution of the famous Hungarian historian and ethnographer of Szekler origin Balázs Orbán, born in the village of Polonița, near Odorheiu Secuiesc, to the establishment of the Egyptian Collection of the Cluj History Museum, in the second half of the nineteenth century. Baron Balázs Orbán is best known for his main work, A Székelyföld leírása, published between 1868 and 1873. Its six volumes represent a genuine encyclopedia of the region. Balázs Orbán was a prominent intellectual of the era in which he lived – he was a writer, historian, ethnographer, a corresponding member of the Hungarian Academy (since 1887), politician in the Independent Party, and a participant in the 1848 revolution. He had an adventurous life, reminiscent of the romantic novels of Mór Jókai or Victor Hugo. To the latter Balázs Orbán was linked by a beautiful friendship, largely due to their shared belief in the liberal and democratic ideas of the era in which they lived. This paper aims to present the years spent by Balázs Orbán in the Orient, as well as the cultural fruits of this period. In his youth, at the age of only 19, the future Hungarian scholar made a trip for several months to the Near East. On this occasion, he acquired a series of valuable Oriental artifacts, which he later donated to the Transylvanian Museum Society, the prestigious Transylvanian cultural institution founded by Count Imre Mikó in 1859, whose collections are preserved today in the heritage of the National Museum of Transylvanian History in Cluj‑Napoca."
Cultural and legal aspects of migration in Hungary in the new millennium
Authors: Zah Maria-Minerva ,   ‘Babeș‑Bolyai’ University, Cluj‑Napoca
Published: October 2021

The article analyses the anti-immigration campaign of the Hungarian government as an element of the securitization of migration, both at the level of political discourse and at that of political legislative instruments. The securitization of migration is seen as a filter through which all migrants are passed, in order to select those who have the same cultural background and, therefore, could adapt to the house country’s national culture and do not represent a threat to the national security. In the case of Hungary, the securitization of migration unfolds on two levels. At the discursive level the migrants are presented as a threat to Hungarian culture, endangering the nation-building process. The migrants are also identified as a threat to the Hungarian economy, since they are allegedly going to take up jobs that otherwise, Hungarians would have been able to access, and to the whole of Europe, creating a connection between the presence of immigrants and the incidence of terrorist acts. The second level is of an institutional kind, involving the adoption of public policies and the creation of security agencies that exercise control over migration through a certain set of practices, such as the bureaucratic ones. The Hungarian anti-immigration policy seems to serve the Kremlin’s objectives, being directed against the European Union.
Repaired lacunae and reconstructed parts of a Bronze Age ceramic urn from the 1970s embodied in a new restoration process
Authors: Rotariu Cornelia ,   National Museum of Transylvanian History
Published: October 2021

This is an object which was restored in the 1970s by the restorers of that time. A fragment representing the bottom of the vessel was found inside the vessel, which was kept in the storage facilities of the National Museum of Transylvanian History. The vessel had white plaster reconstructed parts, reintegrating the original fragments existing at the time of restoration. The missing fragment, subsequently found, was thus integrated into the body of the vessel.

Published: October 2021

"An outstanding opportunity for the investigation of the ruined medieval church emerged through the cooperation between the Haaz Rezső Museum and the Canadian company ArchaeoTek, who backed the archaeological excavation in support of academic training. As a result, anthropology students take part in the excavation, after which they analyze and interpret the discovered bones. During six seasons of work we finished the excavation of the entire church, and also we documented 661 graves. Excavation and analysis at the Papdomb site follow American bioarchaeological methods and interpretive strategies. Over the last forty years, bioarchaeology has developed into a sophisticated and collaborative enterprise that draws from a range of people and skillsets to answer social questions using biological data. Areas of expertise and analysis being applied at the Papdomb site include: skeletal excavation methods; the development of biological profiles; radiocarbon dating; diet analysis through isotope testing; and, sex and biological relationship investigation through ancient DNA. The overarching goal in using the bioarchaeological approach is to add valuable insight and complement what historians and other experts of Szekler history already know. Furthermore, work at the Papdomb site stands out for its international and multi‑scalar collaborative approach. An international team of experts works with the descendant community to preserve and study the site and the human remains. Finally, the excavation and materials produced are a valuable teaching tool for aspiring bioarchaeologists and forensic anthropologists because human remains excavation and large human skeletal collections are not common in the United States or are not available for training."
Romanian Funds and Foundations in Transylvania that supported the Phenomenon of Peregrinatio Accademica (The Second Half of the Nineteenth and the Early Twentieth Centuries)
Authors: Bodale Horațiu ,   Muzeul Național de Istorie a Transilvaniei
Published: October 2021

In the second half of the nineteenth and early twentieth century, many young Romanians from Transylvania went to the universities of the Habsburg Empire, but also to universities in France, Germany, Switzerland, or Italy. For material academic support, they resorted to the foundations and funds established by the Greek‑Catholic Church and the Orthodox Metropolitanate of Transylvania, as well as by banking institutions or private individuals. The amount of scholarships varied depending on the number of years of study and the city where the young scholars were studying. After graduation, most of these youth returned to Transylvania, where they either practiced liberal professions such as medicine or law, or became teachers in Romanian high schools. These young people, trained at prestigious European universities, later formed the Romanian political and intellectual elite in Transylvania.
United Nations Peacekeeping Missions and the Intervention in the Yemeni Civil War (1963-1964)
Authors: Zvîncă Gabriel ,   Facultatea de Istorie și Filosofie, Universitatea Babeș-Bolyai, Cluj-Napoca
Published: October 2021

"The tumultuous 1960s brought a multitude of inter- and intrastatal conflicts in international relations. Some of them derived from extinguished disputes as a subsequent effect of the decolonisation, while others were motivated by the aggressive intentions of states to conquer other states. An example was the Yemeni Civil War (1962–1970) which came in the spotlight of the international community because two neighbours countries, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Republic involved in the internal fight. The external involvement motivated and set the scene for the United Nations Organization to intervene and mobilise a peacekeeping operation which had to observe the withdrawal of the third parties and eventually facilitate the peace process. The study aims to analyze the UN peacekeeping mechanism, which is seen as a compromise created by the bipolarization of the international system that prevented the organization from fulfilling its task of keeping the international peace. Through the case study on the Yemeni peacekeeping operation which operated from 1963 to 1964, one could learn about how UN functioned during the Cold War years, what were the underlining processes supporting the authorization process of such an operation, about the contribution of the Secretary General to the functioning of the peacekeeping mechanism and lastly how the events in Yemen underlined the impact that the interests of involved actors had on the fulfillment of the given mandate of the UN operations."
Challenges in Displaying Archaeological and Historic Vestments from the Collections of the National Museum of Transylvanian History

"The focus of this paper is represented by the display of female and male clothing pieces as well as luxurious ornaments, from the premodern and modern collections of The National History Museum of Transylvania, as exhibited in the temporary exhibition Cornucopia. Luxury in Transylvanian noble world.1 The aim is to underline the challenges the conservators had in mounting the items of dress, while considering the conservation restrictions (the mounting would not damage the object) as well as display requirements (an appropriate arranging of historic clothing). In order to properly display the dresses’ relationship with the human silhouette and due to the fact that some of the objects required prior restoration, the mounting itself proved to be extremely challenging. Since the exhibition’s curators had to work with a tight budget, that also meant that the costumes had to be mounted on standard sized, commercially available dress stands, as opposed to acquiring ‘museum mannequins,’ specifically designed to dress every individual object. Therefore, modern dress stands were adapted to fit the historical and archaeological garments: they were carved, cut‑down, padded, while under‑structures were created using horizontal and vertical tubes of cotton filled with puffed wadding sewn onto the inside of an underskirt‑like structure; as a result, the mounted mannequins, captured the body‑dress relationship the curators wanted, while, at the same time, considering the conservation and display requirements."

La deconjugación de las cadenas de glutamatos en los folatos se realizó mediante una columna de afinidad a folatos. La cantidad promedio de folatos fue de 1.2 μM/100 gramos de peso fresco. La composición de las principales estructuras de folatos presentes en Physalis correspondió a 5-metil- tetrahidrofolato, tetrahidrofolato y 5-formil-tetrahidrofolato. La valoración de estos importantes metabolitos dentro de la dieta se ha soslayado debido a la dificultad implícita en su análi- sis. Es evidente que la falta de esta vitamina está implicada en el riesgo de defectos del tubo neural y anencefalia, princi- palmente en embarazos no deseados, donde no se consume una dieta adecuada de suplementos antes de la concepción. Este problema puede ser disminuido con la ingesta de fuen- tes de folatos en la dieta como Physalis ixocarpa.

In the current system of making a street parking payment in Malaysia, citizens are using a manually paper-based parking coupon that still lacks in terms of the payment process, thus making it difficult for Malaysians to pay for their parking. Therefore, the CouponCar application is proposed to help citizens in Malaysia to pay for their parking with ease. Citizens do not need to buy a parking coupon at the city council or any agents that sell the parking coupon. Instead, the manual system will be replaced by using an android based application where they just need to install the application inside their smartphone, tablet, or any suitable device. This system will also help the officer to check many cars within a short time, whereas they can easily scan the QR code on every car's dashboard. The system was developed using a structured approach and based on activities in the system prototyping model. Overall, this system can facilitate the citizen to make a street parking payment in Malaysia.

Cloud computing provides various types of services to users. The goal of virtual machine placement (VMP) is to map the best physical machine to a virtual machine. With the help of Virtual Machine Placement, we can reduce cost, maximize resource utilization, reduced energy consumption of data centers in cloud environments. The focus of Virtual Machine Placement is to saving of power, quality of service. In this paper, we have reviewed various placements techniques used in cloud computing. At last, we have also studied various challenges for virtual machine placement in cloud computing. The main motive of various types of Virtual Machine Placement algorithms have to reduced energy consumption and minimize cost by maximizing utilization of various resources in the cloud platform. For further study, the researcher should focus on these challenges for the best virtual machine placement in a cloud environment. In this paper, we critically examine the techniques, challenges, and research gaps in virtual placements in cotext with Cloud Computing. Cloud computing, placement of virtual machines becomes major problems. For finding the solution to the problem we can use the various virtual machine placement algorithms. The main motive is to reduce consumption of energy, maximum resource utilization, minimizing cost factors used for virtual to the physical machine mapping in the cloud environment. For selecting the best algorithm various optimization methods are used. With these different optimization methods, we can analyze different algorithms. There is a great scope of improvement in existing systems of virtual placements to make them more energy-efficient, more reliable, and fault-tolerant. Redundancy in cloud downloading can be made more intelligent and minimized for duplicate data while downloading and uploading.
Trust Aware Moth Flame Optimization based Secure Clustering for Wireless Sensor Networks
Authors:   King Faisal University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Sait Abdul Rahaman Wahab
Published: October 2021

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) encompass numerous sensor nodes deployed in the physical environment to sense parameters and transmit to the base station (BS). Since the nodes in WSN communicate via a wireless channel, security remains a significant issue that needs to be resolved. The choice of cluster heads (CHs) is critical to achieving secure data transmission in WSN. In this aspect, this article presents a novel trust-aware mothflame optimization-based secure clustering (TAMFO-SC) technique for WSN. The goal of the TAMFO-SC technique is to determine the trust level of the nodes and determine the secure CHs. The proposed TAMFO-SC technique initially determines the nodes' trust level, and the node with maximum trust factor can be chosen as CHs. In addition, the TAMFO-SC technique derives a fitness function using two parameters, namely residual energy and trust level. The inclusion of trust level in the CH selection process helps to accomplish security in WSN. A comprehensive experimental analysis exhibits the promising performance of the TAMFO-SC technique over the other compared methods.
CAPTURA, ESTERILIZAÇÃO E DEVOLUÇÃO DE CANINOS E FELINOS DOMÉSTICOS COMO ALIADO A SAÚDE ÚNICA: A IMPORTÂNCIA DO RECONHECIMENTO LEGISLATIVO NO BRASIL
Authors: Hildegard Marques de Melo Evelynne , Castanha Barreto Tenório Nunes Annelise , Ribeiro Câmara Diogo
Published: October 2021

O método internacional Captura, Esterilização e Devolução (CED) originalmente iniciado para controle ético de felinos domésticos ferais, atualmente contempla os caninos e felinos, ferais e comunitários e está amplamente apoiado pelos legislativos em vários países. Este método contribui ao bem-estar animal e à saúde única, pois evita confinamento dos animais, permite a manutenção de cães e gatos estéreis em áreas verdes ou urbanas, reduz predação de fauna silvestre pelos felinos em territórios insulares e reduz incidência de zoonoses como a raiva, sobretudo para os felinos que são predadores de morcegos. Apesar dos benefícios, as etapas de marcação, por corte na orelha dos gatos, e a devolução, apontam para uma adequação legislativa no Brasil devido a atual sanção da lei de crimes de maus tratos contra cães e gatos. O objetivo deste trabalho é demonstrar a necessidade do reconhecimento legislativo para o método CED, perante a Lei Federal brasileira nº 14.064/2020, para dirimir divergências éticas e legislativas e para contribuir com uma sugestão legislativa. Através do Portal CAPES, realizou-se levantamento de estudos científicos nacional e internacionais sobre o método CED. Para conhecer as iniciativas legislativas sobre o tema, realizou-se revisão de literatura legislativa nas bases digitais oficiais do Brasil: Câmara dos Deputados, Assembleias Legislativas e CFMVConselho Federal de Medicina Veterinária. A literatura cientifica internacional documenta numerosos benefícios do método CED com felinos e caninos domésticos para a saúde única. No Brasil, apesar da escassez de trabalhos sobre CED, há bons relatos no Maranhão, Pernambuco, Minas Gerais e Alagoas. Das 27 unidades federativas do país, 14 possuem Legislação reconhecendo a castração e devolução de caninos e felinos aos ambientes, livres e comunitários. Não há legislação federal definida sobre o CED. A RESOLUÇÃO Nº 962, DE 27 DE 2010 do CFMV sobre programas de castração, ainda não menciona a metodologia CED. Considerando a recente atualização punitiva contra maus tratos aos caninos e felinos domésticos no Brasil, a ausência de menção metodológica pelo CFMV sobre o método CED e a ausência do reconhecimento legislativo sobre este método no âmbito federal, tal como há em outros países, observa-se que um reconhecimento legislativo fixando normalidade técnica sobre as etapas de marcação da orelha de felinos por corte cirúrgico e a de devolução ao ambiente imediatamente após a cirurgia de castração, conforme diretriz internacional, é importante com vistas a evitar divergências interpretativas nos quesitos abuso e abandono. Os autores direcionaram ao CFMV e a via parlamentar sugestão para normatizar e reconhecer o método CED no Brasil e assim fortalecer atividades de apoio à saúde única.

Computer Vision : Identifikasi Umur Ikan Koi Berbasis Android
Authors: Hasan Yasir
Published: October 2021

Koi fish have a long life of more than 200 years, but in general Koi fish are currently around 50 to 70 years, this is due to inadequate facilities and lack of knowledge in Koi fish care. The age of koi fish can be known in several ways, such as knowing by looking at the annual signs or called Annulus and a daily called Circulus. This method is done by observing certain body parts in Koi fish. However, this method is not appropriate at this time and only people who have special expertise can know the age of koi fish. Utilization of computer technology can be used to determine the age of koi fish. The right technology that can be used is computer vision by utilizing a camera on a handheld computer device. In addition, the method that can be used is to process knowledge data on koi fish in the form of long frequencies or size distances. Better size distance in image processing is the Euclidean Distance method. Utilization of this applied technology to determine the age of koi fish is done by measuring the distance of the points specified on the koi fish object as the length of the koi fish. Of course, to do this the system must be equipped with knowledge about the size of koi fish in real terms.

The tobacco caterpillar, Spodoptera litura, a major pest of soybean in India is under surveillance in all soybean growing areas in Maharashtra in order to issue alerts to farmers and prevent economic losses. In this context, two linear models were fitted to developmental data of S. litura life stages reared on soybean at five constant temperatures viz. 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35°C through laboratory experiments. Optimum temperature for development (Topt) and upper temperature threshold (Tmax) were estimated from three nonlinear models by additionally including developmental response at >35°C. Topt estimates for the total immature development were 34.5°C (Lactin-2), 33.7°C (Briere-1) and 33.2°C (Simplified Beta type function) while Tmax estimates were in the range of 38 to 40°C. Application of a thermodynamic non-linear model (Optim SSI) gave estimate ofintrinsic optimum temperature (Tφ) for development of egg (28.3°C), larva (27.5°C) and pupal stage (30.3°C). The phenology model of S. litura on soybean based on estimated developmental threshold temperatures and thermal constants was validated using available field surveillance data to facilitate informed pest management decisions.

Drought is a natural disaster due to less precipitation than the normal that can occur irrespective of climate regimes. Impact assessment of drought and monitoring are the most important mitigation stratregies to combat the drought effects. As the single index cannot assess all the drought conditions, in the present study multi-variate indices approach has been used to assess and monitor drought. Five indices were assessed using precipitation data such as deciles index (DI), percent normal (PN), China-Z index (CZI), Z-Score index (ZSI) and standardized precipitation index (SPI). Monthly total precipitation data was used to calculate drought events occurred during the period 1967–2017 in different talukas of Chitradurga district of Karnataka, India. The assessment revealed that SPI, CZI and ZSI performance was similar in identifying drought. PN was very much responsive for the rainfall events that occurred during the particular year however, it exhibited variations in dry conditions. DI was not that much satisfactory in identifying drought conditions. Among the five indices assessed, SPI seems to be the best indicator to predict the drought onset than the other four drought indices. Therefore SPI can be recommended for assessing and monitoring the drought in Chitradurga district of Karnataka, India.
Improving communication for children with ASD using AAC
Authors: Jang Soojin
Published: October 2021

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental condition that involves persistent challenges in social interaction, speech and nonverbal communication, and restricted/repetitive behaviors. The effects of ASD and the severity of symptoms are different in each person. Autism differs from person to person in severity and combinations of symptoms. There is a great range of abilities and characteristics of children with autism spectrum disorder — no two children appear or behave the same way. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and often change over time .
Experience of Ultrasound-Guided Vacuum-Assisted Excision of a Phyllodes Tumor Arising From Ectopic Axillary Breast Tissue: A Case Report
Authors: Yang Go Eun , Kim Soo Jin
Published: October 2021

: An axillary breast is a common condition, which can cause various diseases arising from the breast tissue. Among these diseases, phyllodes tumors are very rare fibroepithelial tumors, which resemble fibroadenomas. Surgical removal is the treatment of choice for phyllodes tumors to prevent recurrence. Inpatient treatment and general anesthesia are required for surgical removal, and fibrosis, skin scarring, and neurological symptoms may occur after surgery. Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted excision, because of its advantages, is an alternative to surgical excision for clinically benign breast masses. Therefore, in cases of clinically benign or concordant benign lesions, following a core needle biopsy, ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted excision can be considered with sufficient preoperative measures and close follow-up of the ectopic axillary breast.

Background: The neonatal period is one of the most sensitive stages of life, requiring proper understanding and attentive care. Objectives: Accordingly, this study was done to investigate the effectiveness of theory of planned behavior (TPB)-based educational intervention on newborn care in pregnant mothers. Methods: This study was conducted as quasi-experimental research on 100 pregnant mothers who were assigned randomly to two groups of intervention (N = 50) and control (N = 50). The data collection tool was a valid and reliable questionnaire based on TPB, which was completed by both groups before the intervention. Considering the effective constructs of this theory, the educational intervention was performed in the form of four 60-minute education sessions in one month for the intervention group. One month after delivery, the data were recollected from both groups and analyzed using statistical tests. Results: The mean and standard deviation of the mothers’ age in both intervention and control groups were 26.14 ± 4.7 and 26.10 ± 5.19 years, respectively (P = 0.48). Before the educational intervention, the behavioral intention of the intervention group was 3.33 (out of 5), which significantly increased to 4.54 after the educational intervention (P < 0.001). Also, the performance of mothers regarding neonatal care in the intervention group increased from 2.86 to 4.64 (P = 0.001) after the education. Conclusions: The TPB-based educational intervention, along with active follow-ups, led to better and more principled behavioral intention and care provided by pregnant mothers to their newborn infants. Therefore, providing TPB-based education in other healthcare centers is recommended.
La gentrification atypique de Québec entre 1971 et 2016 : portrait d’une ville polycentrique de taille moyenne
Authors: Beaudry Louis-Pierre
Published: October 2021

La gentrification à Québec a reçu, depuis les années 1980, une attention récurrente. L’analyse s’est toutefois principalement penchée sur le sort des quartiers pris isolément. Adoptant une perspective systémique, cet article présente un portrait statistique de la gentrification de la RMR de Québec entre 1971 et 2016. L’approche utilisée permet de caractériser l’évolution du phénomène en trois périodes historiques différentes, puis d’observer ses relations avec certains prédicteurs. L’analyse cartographique montre que la gentrification a atteint l’ensemble des quartiers centraux et quelques secteurs périphériques, mais qu’elle a évolué de manière discontinue et connu des stagnations et des reculs. L’analyse régressive confirme ses liens avec l’augmentation de la présence d’artistes, de jeunes ménages et de propriétaires. Toutefois, l’absence de relation claire avec le loyer moyen suscite des réflexions sur le rôle tampon du logement social et sur la dynamique segmentée du déplacement de ménages défavorisés vers les secteurs denses de première couronne.
L’action des promoteurs immobiliers dans le processus de gentrification du Sud-Ouest de Montréal

Published: October 2021

Cet article émet l’hypothèse que l’évolution des stratégies de promotion et de production résidentielles, particulièrement depuis les années 2000, a généré une transformation des processus de gentrification. L’article rend compte d’une recherche menée sur deux fronts. D’une part, nous avons quantifié l’évolution de la production résidentielle dans l’arrondissement du Sud-Ouest de Montréal et analysé ses dynamiques socio-territoriales. D’autre part, nous avons mené des entretiens auprès d’acteurs de l’industrie du développement résidentiel à Montréal pour mieux comprendre l’évolution de leurs pratiques. Ces données et analyses nous permettent finalement de montrer comment la croissance de la taille des projets, l’évolution des tâches et stratégies de financement des promoteurs, ainsi que la place croissante des fonds d’investissement dans les activités de promotion résidentielle participent d’une sophistication et d’une accélération de la production immobilière résidentielle. En conséquence, un modèle de gentrification intensive et planifiée répondant aux exigences des acteurs financiers tend à s’imposer.
Revitalisation et « bulles touristiques » : une gentrification instantanée par la touristification du quotidien?
Authors: Bélanger Hélène , Lapointe Dominic
Published: October 2021

De nombreux programmes et projets de revitalisation, à travers différentes actions, mettent en scène une authenticité « pasteurisée » et sécurisent les quartiers afin d’offrir une expérience. En s’intéressant aux transformations de l’environnement construit des quartiers centraux montréalais, à leur gentrification et à ses impacts sur les populations locales, nos travaux ont mis en lumière un nouveau phénomène dans les quartiers montréalais et plus spécifiquement dans le Quartier des spectacles : à la marchandisation du logement s’ajoute une « hypermarchandisation de la vie urbaine » visant les résidents potentiels comme s’ils étaient des touristes dans leur propre vie. L’analyse de discours promotionnels de nouveaux développements immobiliers montre que la bulle touristique s’étend vers les espaces quotidiens de l’habiter.
