Dissertations / Theses on the topic 'Pauline model'

Doctor of Philosophy
Dingo Media examines the development of media events using as a case study one of Australia’s most widely known criminal investigations, the disappearance of Azaria Chamberlain at “Ayers Rock”. Considering the case as a blueprint for the way mass media events develop and evolve in the late capitalist era, this thesis suggests that the event marks a turning point in negotiation of the public sphere and Australian national identity. Using an original model, I trace from the 1980s five phases through which news stories pass in their evolution as modern media events by comparing the Chamberlain saga to contemporary cases involving “controversial” women, Schapelle Corby, Joanne Lees and Pauline Hanson. The first phase examines the emerging practice of news workers focusing on personalities rather than events; the second phase analyses both the formation of counter-publics protesting the conviction, and the development of a dialogic connection between media and publics; the third phase investigates the rise of a modern celebrity industry promoting “ordinary” individuals into subjects of media discourse; the fourth phase considers the process of mythic production surrounding the Chamberlain case as related to processes of nation-building in the late 1980s; finally, the fifth phase critiques the prevalent view that, through continual retelling, the event has suffered a loss of meaning. Axiomatic to this study will be the politics of representation, how the media records, organises and mythologises information, as well as the interaction between texts and audiences.

The research conducted was done on the basis of providing an initial platform or starting point for insight and discussion into what a strategic transcultural model of leadership might look like which was relevant to the early 21st Century Christian context in the cities of Southern Africa. A strategic transcultural leader is essentially a transformational leader who exhibits an ability beyond the norm in being able to cross socio-political barriers and thus inspiring the multicultural dynamic, while also honouring the individual cultures represented. In order to study strategic transcultural leadership models a strong leadership angle was taken, which employed investigating six leaders, three political and three Christian as to the structures, styles, values, transcultural abilities and Christian/political beliefs and/or philosophies they employed. The thesis poses the problem of urban unrest in the cities of Southern Africa. The problem of an influx into the cities, of the many different ethnicities and tribes from throughout Southern Africa and the pressures this has caused is briefly alluded to. This problem has been further exacerbated in South Africa by the arrival of many peoples from throughout Africa, south of the Sahara seeking their fortune without having to leave the African Subcontinent, and in Zimbabwe by the political policies of the Zimbabwean government, over land and in clearing away her unapproved urban high-density housing, and her informal business and white farming sectors of the economy. With these issues in mind, there is a need for strategic transcultural leadership to address these and other issues of unrest. The examples of Mandela and De Klerk as transformational leaders, inspire hope, that the vacuum of strategic transcultural leadership seen in Africa at large and specifically in relation to Southern Africa can be met, as is noted by the progress made in recent years in the arena of transformational leadership which the Group of eight and the United Nations and others allude to. While this is true, there are still problems in relation to the political decision-making within South African, as seen by Mbeki’s stance in the past on HIV-AIDS, and Zimbabwe’s woes. The stage is set from a missiological and historical perspective by looking at multicultural models of leadership in the Early Church with specific reference to Paul and the Antiochan model he used as a prototype. The Jerusalem Church is mentioned as a bi-cultural model, which has significant use outside of large urban environs. However it was the Pauline-Antiochan model that provided a platform, in the later use of a synthetic-semiotic model, to deduce or synthesis a transcultural model. Paul’s model of leadership was analysed specifically in relation to the five elements already noted (structures, styles, etc.) and is particularly useful as a model as Paul himself provides firstly an insight into a man of bi-cultural heritage yet someone who was empire-conscious. Paul was able to uphold both the cultural distinctive or uniqueness of both the Greek and Jew (noting Paul’s use of both Hebraic and Hellenistic styles of the diatribe for example) as well as the universal, in that he was empire-conscious which played into his Kingdom perspective. Secondly he provides a reasonable grounds for understanding that if the belief system of the individual is changed on one of its most fundamental levels – allegiance – then given time the macro-cultural identity of a nation, even empire can be significantly altered. He was able to do this primarily because the Graeco-Roman Empire had a common linguafranca in Greek, and the Christian community – as the followers of the Way became known as – had an ethos of reconciliation, enhancing the multicultural and one also of inclusivity (for example a worship style that encompasses both Jewish and local expressions) enhancing the particular. In declaring the One God of Israel and Jesus Christ – Messiah, as the only true Kyrios, Paul replaced the Emperor and the whole Greek pantheon of the Gods with the one true God and Father of us all, and his one and only Son.< /p> The three political leaders – Moshoeshoe, Smuts and Mandela – and the three Christian leaders – Mutendi, Cassidy and Tutu – are investigated in terms of the five elements (structures, styles, values etc.) that comprise the model of leadership. Each of these leaders in turn made a lasting contribution to national and/or tribal change. After looking at the six leadership models an initial conceptual framework for a multicultural model of leadership is outlined. However, in order to bring significant current postmodern/neo-African/tribal/multicultural paradigms of thought and the associated socio-political forces and philosophies of the day, to bear on the evolving model, these were specifically highlighted and brought into the process of synthesizing a model. Lastly once all these inputs are brought together in a tabulated framework, and the evolving multicultural model is screened against three known working scenarios, and further synthesized such that the refined model was then called a strategic transcultural model of leadership. Before this can be achieved however, various North American multicultural models posited were looked at in a literary review, which served to reinforce the understanding of the need to balance the universal and the particular aspects of culture. In refining a strategic transcultural model, the thesis next attempted to address the problem of developing a national macro-cultural identity. A strict delineation in a postmodern era between Church and State was considered to be not only unnecessary but a modern myth, also noting that the State mirrors the Church in many of the problems of community and identity. Thus the meso-level of the Church provided key insights into the macro-level of the State. An argument all along was posed for not just orchestrating a macro-culture based on multiculturalism, nor in just upholding the micro-cultural individual identities at the expense of participation in a national framework and beyond this the global village, but an argument was made for a both/and scenario. In doing this the thesis sought to address both the macro-cultural and individual cultural identities at every level and in every element of the model of leadership. The plausibility of the argument for today was based on the prevalence of a language of choice – in most cases English – and an ethos of reconciliation and inclusivity for which Madiba and Tutu among others have set the standard. A final picture of a community based on both was posited for reflection, a picture that John paints where the great heavenly host (mirroring the macro-level of the Kingdom) is contrasted with the micro-level of a people made up “from every tribe and language and people and nation” (Rev 5:9).

Resumo: O município de Paulínia - SP possui um parque industrial expressivo e constitui um pólo atrativo para expansão industrial, apresentando sinais importantes de degradação ambiental em vários aspectos. No entanto, poucos estudos têm sido realizados no sentido de avaliar a situação atual de poluição do ar na região, visando desenvolver uma base de conhecimento para subsidiar o Estado na definição de políticas públicas e mesmo os empreendedores na decisão de novos investimentos na região. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo fazer um estudo sobre poluição do ar na região, estimando-se a qualidade do ar em todo domínio considerado, para identificar as regiões mais atingidas pelos efeitos da dispersão dos poluentes, bem como, para auxiliar no planejamento da etapa subseqüente do trabalho desenvolvido na Unicamp que é a monitorização da qualidade do ar empregando um laboratório móvel. A estimativa da qualidade do ar na região está baseada num minucioso inventário de emissões de poluentes do ar, em dados meteorológicos de três anos e no uso de um modelo matemático aceito por diversos órgãos ambientais nacionais e internacionais. São realizadas comparações entre os dados medidos por uma estação de monitorização da Cetesb e os dados no estudo, obtendo uma razoável coerência entre os resultados. Da análise das curvas de isoconcentração para os diversos poluentes estudados é possível identificar as regiões críticas quanto à alteração da qualidade do ar, servindo como base para o planejamento dos estudos de campo com a estação móvel de monitorização de qualidade do ar
Abstract: The municipal district of Paulínia-SP possesses an expressive industrial park and it constitutes an attractive pole for industrial expansion, presents important signs of environmental degradation in several aspects. However, few studies have been accomplished in the sense of evaluating the current situation of air pollution in the area, seeking to develop a knowledge base to subsidize the state in the definition of public politics and even the entrepreneurs in the decision of new investments in the area. The present work has as objective to do a study about air pollution in this area, being made estimates about air quality in whole considered domain, to identify the areas more reached by the effects of pollutants dispersion, as well as, to aid in the planning of the subsequent stage of the work developed in Unicamp that is the air quality monitoring, by means of a mobile laboratory. Estimate of air quality in the area is based on a meticulous air pollutants emission inventory, in three-year meteorological data and in the use of a mathematical model accepted by national and international environmental agencies. Comparisons are accomplished among data measured by an monitoring station of Cetesb (State Environmental Agency - São Paulo) and the data estimated in the study, obtaining a reasonable coherence among the results. From analysis of isoconcentration curves for the several pollutants studied it is possible to identify the critical areas with relationship to air quality alteration, being good as base for planning field measures with the air quality monitoring mobile station

Las empresas de hoy en día priorizan la calidad del servicio que ofrecen, teniendo como principal objetivo lograr la satisfacción del cliente, siendo este uno de los principales indicadores de la calidad del servicio. La presente tesis tuvo como finalidad evaluar la calidad del servicio del restaurante turístico “Mi Paulita”, de la ciudad de Monsefú, debido a que dicho restaurante carece de las condiciones mínimas para ofrecer un buen servicio; según MINCETUR LAMBAYEQUE (Decreto Supremo N° 025- 2004), nos dice que; aquellas condiciones son: ubicación especial, muestras culturales, gastronomía típica del Perú y de la región, espectáculos folclóricos; así mismo poder satisfacer las necesidades de los clientes; información obtenida por fuentes secundarias internas. Para lograr el objetivo se utilizó el Modelo validado SERVQUAL, que es una metodología factible para medir la calidad de servicio muy utilizada en el mundo de servicios y que poco a poco se está aplicando en el Perú. En la investigación se utilizó una muestra de 123 comensales a los cuales se les aplicó encuestas. Los resultados obtenidos demostraron que existe un bajo nivel en la calidad de servicio ofrecida a los clientes por parte de la empresa ya que las brechas entre las cinco dimensiones del modelo son significativas: elementos tangibles, fiabilidad, capacidad de respuesta, seguridad y empatía.
Tesis

De nombreux noyaux atomiques et hypernoyaux se modélisent comme des structures à trois corps. C'est le cas, par exemple, de noyaux à halo, comme 6He, ou de noyaux stables, comme 12C et 9Be.

En effet, 6He se caractérise comme un système à trois corps, formé d'un coeur (une particule alpha) et de deux neutrons de valence faiblement liés. Le noyau de 12C peut s'étudier comme un système lié formé de trois particules alphas, tandis que 9Be peut être décrit comme la liaison de deux particules alphas et d'un neutron.

Dans les exemples précédents, les particules alphas sont des amas de nucléons. Elles possèdent donc une structure interne dont il faut tenir compte en raison du principe de Pauli.

Les modèles les plus réalistes pour décrire les structures à trois corps sont les modèles "microscopiques". Ces modèles prennent en compte explicitement tous les nucléons et respectent exactement le principe d'antisymétrisation de Pauli. Cependant, l'application de ces modèles est fortement limitée en pratique, car ils exigent de trop nombreux et trop longs calculs.

Par conséquent, pour simplifier considérablement les calculs et permettre l'étude des structures à trois corps, des modèles moins détaillés, de type "semi-microscopiques", sont également développés. Dans ces modèles, on représente les amas de nucléons comme de simples particules ponctuelles. Dans ce cas, la modélisation consiste à construire les potentiels effectifs entre les amas, puis à les employer dans les modèles à trois corps.

Dans ce travail, nous avons développé les modèles "semi-microscopiques à trois corps". Les potentiels effectifs entre amas sont directement déduits des forces entre nucléons (selon la RGM à 2 corps). Ces potentiels sont "non-locaux", et dépendent des énergies des amas qui interagissent. Ils permettent de simuler le principe de Pauli et les échanges de nucléons entre les amas. La dépendance en l'énergie se révèle être un inconvénient dans les modèles à trois corps. Les potentiels effectifs sont par conséquent transformés en de nouveaux potentiels (non-locaux) indépendants de l'énergie, bien adaptés aux modèles à trois corps. Les modèles "semi-microscopiques" sont beaucoup plus simples et plus rapides que les modèles "microscopiques". Ils fournissent les fonctions d'onde des états liés à trois corps des noyaux légers et hypernoyaux. Cela permet d'une part de comprendre les propriétés spectroscopiques nucléaires, et d'autre part, cela ouvre la voie pour de futurs modèles de réactions nucléaires impliquant les structures à trois corps.

Several atomic nuclei and hypernuclei can be modelled as three-body structures: e.g. two-neutron halo nuclei, such as 6He, and other nuclei, such as 12C and 9Be.

Indeed 6He can be represented as a three-body system, made up of a core (an alpha particle) and two weakly bound valence neutrons. The 12C nucleus can be studied as a bound system formed by three alpha particles, while the 9Be nucleus can be described as the binding of two alpha particles and one neutron.

In these typical examples, the alpha particles are clusters of nucleons. They have an internal structure that must be taken into account because of the Pauli principle.

The most realistic models are the "microscopic models". In these models, all the nucleons are taken into account, and the Pauli antisymmetrisation principle is fully respected. However, the application of the "microscopic models" is limited in practice, because they require too many laborious calculations.

Therefore, in order to greatly simplify the calculations, "semi-microscopic models" are developed. In those models, the clusters of nucleons are treated as ("structureless") pointlike particles. The models then consist in determining the effective potentials between the clusters, and in using them in three-body models.

In the present work, we have developed "semi-microscopic models". The effective potentials between the clusters are directly obtained from the interactions between nucleons (according to the two-cluster RGM). These potentials are "nonlocal", and depend on the energy of the interacting clusters. The non-locality is a direct consequence of the Pauli principle and the exchanges of nucleons between the clusters. The energy-dependence of the potentials turns out to be a drawback in three-body models. Therefore, the effective potentials are transformed into energy-independent potentials, which can be used in three-body models. The "semi-microscopic models" are much simpler and faster than the "microscopic models". They provide the three-body bound-state wave functions (i.e. the spectroscopic properties and the structure) of light nuclei and hypernuclei. Such wave functions are also the basic ingredient that will be used in future reactions models.

Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt die Modellierung einer Quantenpunkt-LED und die Berechnung des elektrischen Stromes und der Lichtproduktion im Landauer-Büttiker-Formalismus. Die Elektron-Photon-Wechselwirkung kann im Landauer-Büttiker-Formalismus behandelt werden, indem wir annehmen, dass jedes Elektron mit einem separaten Photonenfeld interagiert. Dies erlaubt es uns, ein Elektron zusammen mit seinem Photonenfeld als „einzelnes, nicht wechselwirkendes Teilchen“ im Sinne des Landauer-Büttiker-Formalismusses zu betrachten. Wir entwickeln ein Modell einer QP-LED, dessen Elektron-Photon-Wechselwirkung auf dem Jaynes-Cummings-Modell basiert, das die Interaktion eines Quantenpunkts mit einer Mode des elektromagnetischen Feldes beschreibt. Um auch die Energieverteilung der emittierten Photonen analysieren zu können, schlagen wir ein auf einem Pauli-Fierz-Modell basiertes Modell vor. Anstelle einer einzelnen Mode modelliert es Photonen beliebiger Energie, allerdings beschränken wir uns auf den Unterraum mit maximal einem Photon. Wir beweisen eine abstrakte Landauer-Büttiker-Formel, die für alle relativ nuklearen Streusysteme gilt. Sie ist ähnlich zu dem Ergebnis von Aschbacher et al. (2007), unterscheidet sich aber in der Regularisierung des Stroms. Wir wenden das abstrakte Ergebnis auf die Jaynes-Cummings-QP-LED an. Als Startpunkt für die Berechnung der Streumatrix verallgemeinern wir die Darstellung der Streumatrix durch die Weyl-Funktion eines Randwert-Triplets von Behrndt et al. (2010) vom Fall für Störungen endlichen Ranges auf den Fall relativ nuklearer Störungen. Dies deckt insbesondere den Fall der Jaynes-Cummings-QP-LED ab. Die Resolventendifferenz der Pauli-Fierz-QP-LED ist nicht nuklear, weshalb wir eine verallgemeinerte Landauer-Büttiker-Formel für eine gewisse Klasse von Multiplikationsoperatoren beweisen, die in der Faser nuklear sind. Dieses abstrakte Resultat liefert uns auch für die Pauli-Fierz-QP-LED eine Landauer-Büttiker-Formel.
This thesis treats the modeling of a quantum dot LED and the calculation of the electric current and the light production in the Landauer-Büttiker framework. The electron-photon interaction is fitted into the Landauer-Büttiker framework by assuming that every electron interacts with a separate photon field. It allows us to consider an electron together with its photon field as a ''single non-interacting particle'' in the sense of the Landauer-Büttiker formalism. We develop a model of a QD-LED with an electron-photon interaction that is based on the Jaynes-Cummings model, which describes the interaction of a quantum dot with a single mode of the electromagnetic field. To be able to analyze the energy distribution of the emitted photons, we propose a second model of a QD-LED that is based on a one-dimensional Pauli-Fierz model. It models photons of arbitrary positive energy instead of just a single mode, but we restrict it to the subspace of at most one photon. We prove an abstract Landauer-Büttiker formula that applies to all relatively trace class interactions. It is similar to the result by Aschbacher et al. (2007), but differs in the regularization of the flux. We apply this formula to the Jaynes-Cummings QD-LED. Since knowing of the scattering matrix is essential for explicit calculations with the Landauer-Büttiker formula, we generalize a result by Behrndt et al. (2010) on a representation of the scattering matrix in terms of the Weyl function of a boundary triplet from the finite rank case to relatively trace class perturbations, which covers the case of the Jaynes-Cummings QD-LED. The resolvent difference of the Pauli-Fierz QD-LED is not trace class, whence we prove a generalized Landauer-Büttiker formula for a certain multiplication operators that are trace class in the fiber. This abstract result gives us a Landauer-Büttiker formula also for the Pauli-Fierz QD-LED.

Neste trabalho buscamos encontrar a teoria mais geral para partículas massivas de spin-2 via tensor simétrico. Começamos expondo o caminho que seguiremos para calcular a amplitude de dois pontos saturada por fontes e obter o conteúdo físico de uma dada teoria livre. Como primeira tentativa partimos de uma teoria semelhante a teoria de Fierz-Pauli, mas com termo de massa generalizado. Após isto exploramos uma densidade lagrangiana mais geral, com no máximo duas derivadas. Em ambos os casos retornamos a teoria de Fierz-Pauli como a única viável. Em busca de maior generalidade, posteriormente, propomos uma densidade lagrangiana com coeficientes arbitrários e com potência arbitrária nas derivadas, relacionamos os coeficientes desta teoria com os coeficientes da densidade lagrangiana encontrada anteriormente na literatura via imersão de Euler das equações de Fierz Pauli, o propósito foi verificar se existe uma teoria mais geral que esta última. Por último, a fim de complementar o assunto tratado neste trabalho, verificaremos as consequências de uma dada simetria local no conteúdo físico de uma teoria, de spin-2 massiva.
In this project we seek to find the most general theory for massive particles of spin-2 through symmetric tensor. We begin by the path we will follow to calculate the amplitude of two points, saturated by sources, and obtain physical contente of a free theory. As first attempt, we started with a theory similar to the Fierz-Pauli’s theory, but with a generalized mass term. After this we explored a more general Lagrangian density, with two derivatives in the most. In both cases we return to the Fierz-Pauli’s theory as the only viable one. In search of a greater generality, we later propoused a Lafrangian density with arbitrary coefficients and arbitrary power in the derivatives. We related the coefficients of this theory with the Lagrangian density’s coefficients found previously in the literature through imersão de Euler of the Fierz-Pauli’s equations. The purpose was to verify if there is a more general theory than this last one. Finally, in order to complemente the subject discussed in this paper, we will verify the consequences of a certain local symmetry on the physical contente of a massive spin-2 theory

Neste trabalho abordamos de forma introdutória o tratamento de sistemas singulares, em especial as teorias de Maxwell, Proca e Fierz-Pauli, e obtemos resultados originais para a família de modelos de spin-2 massivos do tipo não-Fierz-Pauli. Tendo como ferramenta principal o método de Dirac para sistemas vinculados, escrevemos a densidade de hamiltoniana primária do modelo LnF P , obtemos seus vínculos primários, secundários, terciários e quartenários, assim como os multiplicadores de Lagrange. Calculamos também o número de graus de liberdade independentes e mostramos a positividade da hamiltoniana reduzida.
In this work, we approach in an introductory way the treatment of singular systems, especially the theories of Maxwell, Proca and Fierz-Pauli, and obtain original results for the non-Fierz-Pauli family of massive spin-2 models. Having as main tool the Dirac method for constrained systems, we write the primary Hamiltonian density of the LnF P model, obtain their primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary constraints, as well as Lagrange multipliers. We calculate the number of independent degrees of freedom of the model and demonstrate the positivity of the reduced Hamiltonian.

Resumo: A região de Campinas - SP na qual está o município de Paulínia é geradora de 9% do Produto Interno Bruto Nacional (PIB), e é a terceira maior região industrial do País. Nesta região, Paulínia é o município com o maior número de indústrias químicas e petroquímicas e onde está instalada a maior refinaria de petróleo do País e por isto possui as distribuidoras de combustíveis e gás liqüefeito de petróleo. O município é uma das regiões industrializadas, cujo cenário ambiental apresenta um quadro evolutivo preocupante no que diz respeito ao esgotamento dos recursos naturais. Seu potencial de crescimento em função da capacidade industrial instalada, de sua localização e proximidade dos transportes rodoviários e ferroviários é muito grande. O presente trabalho tem objetivo estudar as possíveis alterações na qualidade do ar provenientes das emissões de poluentes atmosféricos em Paulínia em diversos cenários, bem como auxiliar na continuidade de um outro trabalho desenvolvido na Unicamp pelo Laboratório de Poluição do Ar, que é a monitorização da qualidade do ar na região com a utilização de um laboratório móvel. Estes cenários poderão ocorrer devido a disponibilidade do gás natural na região, desde 2.000, através do gasoduto Bolivia-Brasil, que poderá substituir o óleo combustível em muitas indústrias. Com o início do consumo do gás natural a estimativa das emissões para o Nox são de 15,45t/dia e para o S02 de 85,47t/dia. Esta estimativa da qualidade do ar está baseada num inventario de emissões das principais industrias da região, dados de projetos, um banco meteorológico e um modelo matemático, utilizado por vários órgãos ambientais do Brasil e de outros países. O modelo permite a simulação para diversas fontes de emissão de poluentes atmosféricos. Os resultados obtidos são curvas de isoconcentração dos poluentes na área de estudo. Sua análise permite a identificação das regiões mais críticas quanto aos efeitos da dispersão dos poluentes, a adequada localização de novas fontes de emissões e também o fornecimento de subsídios para decisões visando o crescimento industrial baseado na preservação da qualidade ambiental
Abstract: The region of Campinas - SP in which is the city of Paulínia is responsible by 9% of the National Gross Domestic Product (NGDP) and is the third bigger industrial region of the country. 1n this region, Paulínia is the city with the biggest number of chemical and petrochemical industries and where it is installed the biggest refinery of the country and for this also possesses fuel and liquefied gas deliverers. The city is one of the industrialized regions, whose environmental scenario presents a worrying evolution condition in aspect the exhaustion of the natural resources. 1ts potential of growth in function of the installed industrial capacity, of its location and highways and railroad so is expressive. The present work has as objective to study the possible alterations in air quality due to the emissions of atmospheric pollutants in Paulínia in the different scenarios, as well as assisting in the continuity of one another work developed in the Unicamp for the Laboratory of Pollution of the Air that is the air quality monitoring in the region of with the use of a mobile laboratory. These scenarios had become possible due to the availability of the natural gas in region, since 2.000, through the Bolivia-Brazil gas-line that will go to change the fuel oil in many industries. The beginning of the natural gas consumption gives an emissions estimation for NOx is of 15,45t/day and for SO2 of 85,47t/day. Air quality estimation is based on emission inventories of the main industries in the region, design data, meteorological data and a mathematical model, used for several environmental agencies of Brazil and other countries The results gotten are isoconcentration curves of pollutants for studied area The model allows the simulation for diverse emission sources of atmospheric pollutants. Its analysis allows the identification of the most critical regions and the effect of the pollutants dispersion, the adjusted location of new emissions sources and also supply subsidies in order to get an based decisions on industrial growth in the preservation of environmental quality

The aim of this study is to gain insight into the leadership processes and dynamics operative in the early Pauline churches. The study is based on Paul’s Early Letters (i.e. 1 & 2 Thessalonians, Galatians, 1 & 2 Corinthians, and Romans) and uses a combination of socio-historical and exegetical approaches. The idea that leadership in the early Pauline churches was determined by wealth, social status, and patronage is prominent in the literature, and is examined in detail. Recent research on the economic stratification of first-century Graeco-Roman society challenges the idea that leadership in the early Pauline churches was exercised by wealthy patrons. It can be observed in the Early Letters that Paul’s leadership role was the most prominent one, and that other leaders, both local and itinerant, were regarded as his coworkers. The study therefore examines Paul’s thinking about his own leadership role, especially his ministry aims and methods. Two aims stand out: (a) that believers appear blameless at the return of Christ; and (b) that the body of Christ be built up. Paul saw himself as an apostle and as God’s coworker; he was convinced that the gospel, as God’s power for salvation, received through faith, was the means by which these aims would be accomplished. Therefore his ministry was first and foremost a ministry of the gospel which aimed to establish people in faith. Passages relating to Paul’s coworkers show that they were ministers of the gospel in their own right, and that they shared in all aspects of Paul’s ministry except those pertaining specifically to his apostleship. Paul often refers to his ministry as a grace that he has received from God. The ministry of others is similarly understood in terms of grace (Rom 12:3-6). This observation leads to a study of divine equipping in the ministry of Paul and his coworkers. I conclude that, for Paul, the work of the Holy Spirit in empowering leaders and making their work effective was fundamental to authentic ministry/leadership. Finally, theoretical perspectives from leadership studies and social psychology are used to bring conceptual unity to the exegetical results. A definition of leadership is formulated and the wellknown power/interaction model of French and Raven is adapted and used to analyse leadership in the early Pauline churches. The aim is to understand both theological and socio-historical aspects of leadership and how they interacted in the early Pauline communities. I conclude that leadership in these communities entailed a social process in which the most important forms of influence were spiritual and empowering. A local leadership role had begun to develop, but was not yet formalized into an official structure. Overall, I conclude that the gospel of Jesus Christ, as God’s power for the salvation of all who believe, was the central dynamic of leadership in the early Pauline churches.

L’Église est encore désignée « corps du Christ », surtout dans les épîtres pauliniennes. Elle est pour ainsi dire analogue à un organisme vivant. Par conséquent, sa croissance devrait résulter naturellement de sa santé. Mais l’Église en Occident est confrontée à une stagnation numérique et même à une érosion démographique. Ce qui est fondamentalement en cause, c’est la vitalité ecclésiale et la capacité non seulement de garder les fidèles, mais aussi d’attirer de nouveaux membres. La question du ministère ecclésial, fort populaire en exégèse et en histoire du christianisme dans les décennies 1970 et 1980, est délaissée depuis 20 ans. Elle mérite d’être reprise pour des raisons qui ne sont pas uniquement conjoncturelles, mais bien d’ordre théologique et ecclésiologique. De nos jours, la pluralité ministérielle largement présente dans l’Église primitive est réduite à un monolithisme pastoral. La présente thèse entend remettre à l’avant-plan la question du ministère ecclésial par un angle nouveau inspiré à la fois de l’approche herméneutique et de la méthode d’analyse rhétorique. Dans le but d’offrir des pistes pour l’identification et la mise en valeur des mécanismes de la croissance intégrale de l’Église, nous avons repéré, à la lumière d’une analyse rhétorique de deux textes majeurs du corpus paulinien (1 Co 12–14 et Ép 4,1-16), les besoins fonctionnels vitaux du corps ecclésial et les principes fondamentaux qui s’incarnent dans l’édification des églises du Nouveau Testament et que les apôtres ont cautionnés eux-mêmes. Il ressort globalement de notre étude que : (1) l’Église est dotée d’une structure organique et que sa croissance résulte de la mise en œuvre efficace et efficiente des divers dons spirituels ; (2) l’Église est dotée d’un mécanisme d’édification fonctionnel par lequel les ministres de la Parole forment tous les croyants pour les mettre en état d’accomplir le ministère ecclésial et de contribuer à l’édification de l’ensemble de la communauté ecclésiale ; (3) l’édification ecclésiale se fait en professant continûment la vérité évangélique, en s’efforçant dans l’amour de garder l’unité et en faisant toutes choses pour l’édification de la communauté et pour la seule gloire du Christ Seigneur ; (4) l’édification ecclésiale passe par quatre objectifs de croissance : l’unité de la foi, l’unité de la connaissance du Fils de Dieu, l’état d’homme accompli, la mesure de la stature parfaite du Christ. Nous avons construit, à partir des intuitions repérées, un modèle paulinien de l’édification ecclésiale.
The Church is also referred to as “body of Christ”, especially in Pauline epistles. It is almost analogous to a living organism. Therefore, its growth should naturally result from its health. But the Church in the West is facing a numerical stagnation and even a demographic decrease. What is fundamentally at issue is the ecclesial vitality and the ability to keep followers, but also to attract new members. The question of ecclesial ministry, which was very popular in the domains of exegesis and history of the Christianity in the 1970s and 1980s, was abandoned for 20 years. This question deserves to be retaken for reasons that are not only cyclical, but theological and ecclesiological. Nowadays the widely present ministerial plurality in the early Church is reduced to a pastoral monolithic. This thesis intends to put the question of ecclesial ministry foreground with a new perspective inspired from the hermeneutic approach and the method of rhetorical analysis. In order to provide avenues for the identification and development of mechanisms for the integral growth of the Church, we spotted in the light of a rhetorical analysis of two major texts of the Pauline corpus (1 Cor 12-14 and Ep 4:1-16), the vital functional needs of the ecclesial body and the fundamental principles that are embodied in the edification of the New Testament churches and that the apostles endorsed themselves. The general conclusions from this study are: (1) the Church has an organic structure and its growth is due to the effective and efficient implementation of various spiritual gifts; (2) the Church has a functional edification mechanism by which the ministers of the Word equippe all believers to make them able to accomplish ecclesial ministry and to edify the entire ecclesial community; (3) the edification of the Church is doing by continuously professing the evangelical truth in love, endeavoring to keep the unity and doing all things for the edification of the community and for the sole glory of Christ the Lord; (4) the edification of the Church goes through four growth targets: the unity of the faith, the unity of the knowledge of the Son of God, the accomplished statesman, the measure of the fullness of Christ. We build, from the intuitions spotted, a Pauline model for Church edification.
