"Comparant les modalités et les logiques de distinction élitiste à l'échelle planétaire et à travers les âges, cet ouvrage constitue une somme absolument inédite. Celle-ci repose sur des décennies d'observation dans de nombreux pays, ainsi que sur la consultation de milliers d'études relevant d'une douzaine de disciplines. Au fil de chapitres thématiques, relatifs aussi bien aux attitudes corporelles révélatrices qu'à la distinction par l'intermédiaire des animaux, se voit souligné à quel point la symbolique de l'éminence peut revêtir des formes variées et parfois même diamétralement opposées. Après avoir publié deux ouvrages théoriques qui ont été salués comme renouvelant profondément l'analyse du sujet, Jean-Pascal Daloz nous offre ici une fascinante synthèse empirique, attachant toute l'importance qu'ils méritent aux clivages culturels entre les sociétés."

We investigate a nonlinear viscoelastic equation with interior time-varying delay and nonlinear dissipative boundary feedback. Under suitable assumptions on the relaxation function and time-varying delay effect together with nonlinear dissipative boundary feedback, we prove the global existence of weak solutions and asymptotic behavior of the energy by using the Faedo-Galerkin method and the perturbed energy method, respectively. This result improves earlier ones in the literature, such as Kirane and Said-Houari (2011) and Ammari et al. (2010). Moreover, we give an positive answer to the open problem given by Kirane and Said-Houari (2011).

"A denunciation of the credentialed elite class that serves capitalism while insisting on its own progressive heroism. Professional Managerial Class (PMC) elite workers labor in a world of performative identity and virtue signaling, publicizing an ability to do ordinary things in fundamentally superior ways. Author Catherine Liu shows how the PMC stands in the way of social justice and economic redistribution by promoting meritocracy, philanthropy, and other self-serving operations to abet an individualist path to a better world. Virtue Hoarders is an unapologetically polemical call to reject making a virtue out of taste and consumption habits. Forerunners: Ideas First is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital publications. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship." -- Publisher's description.
