Abstract

Pallier la pénurie d'entrepreneurs 2017 est la quatrième édition d'une série de publications qui examinent la manière dont les politiques publiques à l'échelon national, régional et local peuvent soutenir la création d'emplois en encourageant la création d'entreprises et le travail indépendant auprès des personnes issues de groupes sociaux défavorisés ou sous-représentés. Ce rapport montre que la lutte contre le chômage et la stimulation de l'inclusion sociale pourraient être considérablement renforcées en promouvant l'entrepreneuriat au sein de pans de la population telles que les femmes, les jeunes, les seniors, les chômeurs et les migrants, si les problèmes spécifiques auxquels ces parts de la population sont confrontées sont traités et si les politiques en faveur de l'entrepreneuriat sont ouvertes à tous. Cette édition contient des chapitres de discussion thématiques sur la qualité du travail indépendant, y compris sur ses nouvelles formes, telles que le travail indépendant dépendant et le faux travail indépendant, ainsi que sur le potentiel du travail indépendant en tant que mécanisme d'ajustement dans la restructuration des grandes entreprises. Chaque chapitre thématique traite des enjeux et défis politiques actuels et formule des recommandations à l'intention des décideurs politiques. Enfin, les profils nationaux mettent en évidence les tendances récentes observées en matière d'entrepreneuriat au sein des groupes sociaux cibles, les principaux défis politiques et les mesures politiques récentes dans chacun des 28 États membres de l'UE.

Abstract

"Capital punishment, serial killings, war, terrorism, abortion, honour killings, euthanasia, suicide bombings, war, and genocide: all involve the taking of life. Put most simply, all involve killing other people. However, cultural context influences heavily how people perceive these, and most people reading this paragraph will likely disagree on the extent to which these 'count' as killing. For such an evolved species, humans can be violent far beyond the point of humanity. Why We Kill examines this violence in its many forms, exploring how culture plays a role in people's understanding and definition of violent action. From the first chapter, which examines 'conventional' homicide to the final chapter's bone-chilling account of the Rwandan genocide, this fascinating book makes compelling reading"--

Abstract

The role and value of science within sport increases with ever greater professionalization and commercialization. Scientific and technological innovations are devised to increase performance, ensure greater accuracy of measurement and officiating, reduce risks of harm, enhance spectatorship, and raise revenues. However, such innovations inevitably come up against epistemological and metaphysical problems related to the nature of sport and physical competition. This Special Issue identifies and explores key and contemporary philosophical issues in relation to the science of sport and exercise. It is divided into three sections: 1. Scientific evidence, causation, and sport; 2. Science technology and sport officiating; and 3. Scientific influences on the construction of sport.It brings together scholars working on philosophical problems in sport to examine issues related to the values and assumptions behind sport and exercise science and key problems resulting from these and to provide recommendations for improving its practice.

Abstract

"The Paradox of Transgression in Games looks at transgressive games as an aesthetic experience, tackling how players respond to game content that shocks, disturbs, and distresses, and how contemporary video games can evoke intense emotional reactions. The book delves into the commercial success of many controversial videogames: although such games may appear shocking for the observing bystander, playing them is experienced as deeply rewarding for the player. Drawing on qualitative player studies and approaches from media aesthetics theory, the book challenges the perception of games as innocent entertainment, and examines the range of emotional, moral, and intellectual experiences of players. As they explore what players consider transgressive, the authors ask whether there is something about the gameplay situation that works to mitigate the sense of transgression, stressing gameplay as an aesthetic experience. Anchoring the aesthetic game experience both in play studies as well as in aesthetic theory, this book will be an essential resource for scholars and students of game studies, aesthetics, media studies, philosophy of art, and emotions"--

Abstract

Je suis chirurgien digestif. Une maladie psychiatrique, contre toute attente, a sérieusement entaché le cours de mon existence. Celui de mon entourage aussi. L'anorexie-boulimie, maladie honteuse, a failli tout foutre en l'air. Moi, le dictateur. Ceux que j'aimais, mes victimes. Elle n'a préservé que ceux que je soignais. Ces derniers m'ont maintenue à flot. Dans un moment de profond désarroi, j'ai retrouvé un texte commencé il y a une quinzaine d'années. Un texte simple, cru et violent sur une maladie qui avait déjà anéanti ce qui aurait dû être les plus belles années de ma vie. Un texte écrit dans l'urgence. J'ai tenu à le terminer, aujourd'hui, quinze ans après, avec une approche et surtout un regard très différents, puisque, dans l'intervalle, j'ai réussi à quitter l'obscurité de la maladie. Je voulais donner un message d'espoir à toutes celles et ceux atteints de ce trouble du comportement alimentaire dévastateur. Après lui, il y a la vie. [4e de couv.].

Abstract

"This innovative text bridges media theory, psychology, and interpersonal communication by describing how our relationships with media emulate the relationships we develop with friends and romantic partners through their ability to replicate intimacy, regularity, and reciprocity. In research-rich, conversational chapters, the author applies psychological principles to understand how nine influential media technologies - theatrical film, recorded music, consumer market cameras, radio, network and cable television, tape cassettes, video gaming, and dialup internet service providers - irreversibly changed the communication environment, culture, and psychological expectations that we then apply to future media technologies. With special attention to mediums absent from the traditional literature, including recorded music, cable television, and magnetic tape, this book encourages readers to critically reflect on their own past relationships with media and consider the present environment and the future of media given their own personal habits. 20th Century Media and the American Psyche is ideal for media studies, communication, and psychology students, scholars, and industry professionals, as well as anyone interested in a greater understanding of the psychological significance of media technology, usage, and adoption across the past 150 years"--

Abstract

"This chapter provides a critical review of the cross-modal lexical priming (CMLP) paradigm and its variants as used in the bilingual lexical access literature. We first discuss methodological concerns related to task processing demands and the specific requirements (e.g., ecological validity, online vs. offline) required to appropriately assess bilingual exhaustive activation. We then go on to discuss the functionality and reliability of the CMLP and its implementations in bilingual cross-language priming, bilingual figurative language processing (e.g., idioms and metaphors), and word type effects (e.g., homophones, homographs). We underscore the CMLP's capability and flexibility to probe for bilingual multiple lexical activation at multiple points throughout the spoken sentence, and provide early and late measures of language processing. Task selection is crucial in the investigation of bilingual lexical access. Such statement, in the words of Swinney (1982), would seem so self-evident as to be nearly tautologous (p. 152); the question of whether bilingual lexical access is selective (i.e., activation only of contextually relevant language) or nonselective (i.e., simultaneous activation of both languages regardless of contextually-relevant [language] information; Gerard & Scarborough, 1989) would be more appropriately resolved taking into consideration the processing demands imposed by the experimental paradigm (Craik & Lockart, 1972; Morris, Bransford, & Franks, 1977). In addition to the cognitive processes being measured by the orienting task (e.g., semantic vs. shallow), Craik and Lockhart underscore the importance of incidental tasks in which participants are not aware of or told explicitly that they are participating in a memory experiment, for example (see also McLaughlin, 1965)"--
