Abstract

Le père fait-il symptôme aujourd'hui?? Louis Sciara revient sur les élaborations théoriques de Freud et de Lacan pour penser la clinique contemporaine et avancer de nouvelles hypothèses sur la fonction paternelle. À travers trois cas cliniques, il interroge ce qui résulte du « déclin social de l'imago paternelle » pour la fonction paternelle. L'évanescence progressive de l'autorité du père, voire sa disqualification, la dénonciation ou même la vindicte qu'il suscite parfois, contribuent-elles à modifier cette fonction?? Dans quelle mesure la fonction paternelle serait-elle menacée de désuétude et même d'obsolescence?? Ne serait-elle pas plutôt une fonction intemporelle, inhérente à notre condition humaine, celle qui fait de nous des parlêtres, des êtres qui énoncent la parole, qui sont assujettis aux lois du langage et structurés par le désir qui les interpelle, chacun le temps d'une vie?? La différenciation entre phénoménologie (variabilité des phénomènes) et structure (invariance de la structure subjective) s'avère précieuse pour répondre à ces questions. Elle sert de fil conducteur à l'ouvrage. L'auteur démontre que la fonction paternelle relève de ce qu'il appelle un « principe d'invariance », car elle s'appuie sur les conditions structurales qui régissent les lois du langage. Celles-ci sont pérennes, indépendantes des mutations sociales, culturelles, sociétales.

Abstract

Cooperative breeders are species in which individuals beyond a pair assist in the production of young in a single brood or litter. Although relatively rare, cooperative breeding is widespread taxonomically and continues to pose challenges to our understanding of the evolution of cooperation and altruistic behavior. Bringing together long-term studies of cooperatively breeding birds, mammals, and fishes, this volume provides a synthesis of current studies in the field. The chapters are organised by individual studies of particular species or (in the case of mole-rats) two closely related cooperatively breeding species. Each focuses not only on describing behavior and ecology but also on testing evolutionary hypotheses for the form and function of the diverse and extraordinary cooperative breeding lifestyles that have been discovered. This unique and comprehensive text will be of interest to graduate students and researchers of behavioral ecology and the evolution of cooperation.

Abstract

From Henry David Thoreau to Bill McKibben, critics and philosophers have long sought to demonstrate how a sufficient life-one without constant, environmentally damaging growth-might still be rich and satisfying. Yet one crucial episode in the history of sufficiency has been largely forgotten. Green Victorians tells the story of a circle of men and women in the English Lake District who attempted to create a new kind of economy, turning their backs on Victorian consumer society in order to live a life dependent not on material abundance and social prestige but on artful simplicity and the bonds of community. At the center of their social experiment was the charismatic art critic and political economist John Ruskin. Albritton and Albritton Jonsson show how Ruskin's followers turned his theory into practice in a series of ambitious local projects ranging from hand spinning and woodworking to gardening, archaeology, and pedagogy. This is a lively yet unsettling story, for there was a dark side to Ruskin's community as well-racist thinking, paternalism, and technophobia. Richly illustrated, Green Victorians breaks new ground, connecting the ideas and practices of Ruskin's utopian community with the problems of ethical consumption then and now.
