Gotz, Adela. "Open federalism and the 2006 federal election in Quebec: Did Quebecers accept the olive branch?" Thesis, McGill University, 2010. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=86760.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to establish whether or not Open Federalism contributed to the rise in the Conservative party's vote share in Quebec in the 2006 Canadian federal election. Open Federalism represented a fresh, constructive approach to Quebec-Ottawa relations, which had soured considerably since the 1960s. Given the importance of national unity and intergovernmental relations in Quebec politics, there is reason to believe that this campaign proposal motivated many Quebecers to support the Conservatives in 2006. Using data from the Canadian Election Study and the Observatory on Media and Public Policy, this study provides empirical tests of the effects of Open Federalism on voting behaviour in Quebec. It is demonstrated that the proposal did in fact contribute to the Conservative vote share among Quebecers, even once other relevant factors such as the sponsorship scandal, conservative values, and strategic voting are taken into account.L'objectif de cette étude est de déterminer si le fédéralisme d'ouverture a contribué à l'augmentation des appuis obtenus par le parti Conservateur à l'élection fédérale canadienne de 2006. Le fédéralisme d'ouverture symbolisait une approche nouvelle et constructive du rapport entre Québec et Ottawa, qui a dégénéré de manière notable depuis les années soixante. Étant donné l'importance des enjeux de l'unité nationale et des relations intergouvernementales en politique québécoise, il est raisonnable de croire que cette promesse électorale à poussé un certain nombre de Québécois à appuyer le parti Conservateur en 2006. En utilisant les données de l'Étude électorale canadienne et de l'Observatoire sur les médias et les politiques publiques, il est démontré que la proposition de fédéralisme d'ouverture a influencé le vote des Québécois en faveur du parti Conservateur, par-delà l'effet d'autres facteurs importants tel que le scandale des commandites, les valeurs conservatrices et le vote stratégique.

Bougie, Evelyne. "The cultural narrative of francophone and anglophone Quebecers and their perceptions of temporal relative deprivation : links with esteem and well-being." Thesis, McGill University, 2005. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=85888.
Full textAbstract:
The thesis describes a program of research that investigated the over-riding hypothesis that a clear cultural identity is associated with positive personal and collective self-esteem, and positive personal well-being. The testing of this novel hypothesis required first and foremost that a reliable measure of cultural identity generally, and the clarity of a person's cultural identity in particular, be developed. To meet this goal Study 1 introduced an innovative method in a story-telling form, the "Cultural Narrative". The Cultural Narrative method is built on McAdams' (1996, 2001) Life Story Model for assessing personal identity. In order to verify its generalizability, this novel methodology was applied to two natural cultural groups: Francophone and Anglophone Quebecers. Results showed that for Francophones, a clear cultural narrative was associated with positive personal self-esteem and personal well-being, in support of the hypothesis. Unexpectedly, however, results showed that for Anglophones, a clear cultural narrative was associated with negative collective self-esteem, in complete opposition to the hypothesis. In order to theoretically refine the nature of the relationship between cultural identity clarity and individuals' esteem and well-being, Study 2 explored the historical changes in the relative ingroup status of Francophone and Anglophone Quebecers. Results indicate that when temporal relative deprivation patterns are such that the status of one's ingroup is perceived to be on the rise, cultural identity clarity is associated with positive personal well-being. In contrast, when one's ingroup trajectory is perceived to be on the downturn, cultural identity clarity is associated with a lack of personal well-being.

Full textAbstract:
What is the nature of Quebec literature these days? Will we soon be speaking yet again of a national literature? Will we possess as much breadth of literature as do ethnic groups? These are some of the questions asked by one of the protagonists of Monique LaRue in L'arpenteur et le navigateur, a work which has provoked an outcry from the literary community.Quebec literature, like Quebec society, has reached a crossroads; it is now in the process of redefining itself.
Is Marco Micone, an immigrant of Italian origin, considered a Quebec author? In this paper, we will attempt to answer that question by delving into his fiction, by examining his contemplative essays and by evaluating his position within the mainstream. We will also observe the way in which the concept of a culture immigree (transplanted culture), expounded by Micone, played a major role in the issue of ecritures migrantes (ethnic writing).

Bailey, Miriam. "The status of strategic planning in Quebec's CEGEPS /." Thesis, McGill University, 1992. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=70282.
Full textAbstract:
The study examined how cegeps, Quebec's public postsecondary (nondegree) colleges, plan strategically and perceive their ability to accomplish their individual mission.The study's conceptual base included both the process and focus of strategic planning as outlined respectively in Keller's (1983) process framework and Burns' (1986) theoretical model based on the focus of strategic planning. All Directors General, the chief executive officers of the cegeps, were surveyed.
The data indicated that the majority of cegeps employ the components of Keller's strategic planning process. The large urban cegeps are more inclined to implement strategic planning than are the small, less centrally situated colleges; the latter, however, are the more likely to focus resources in line with local requirements.
The majority of Directors General reported that their institution fulfils its mission. To enable the cegep to be a more effective community resource, they suggested that the Government undertake the following: expand the cegep mandate to include both applied research and a separate structure for adult and community training; make the provincially-based funding formulae more reflective of the cegeps' differing characteristics; grant the cegeps more autonomy over resource distribution; and increase the external community representation on the Board of Governors.

Full textAbstract:
Le français représente une langue dominante au Québec et aux Antilles. Cependant, il n'arrive pas toujours à exprimer les réalités de ces peuples. Alors, pour rendre compte des valeurs chères aux populations locales, les auteurs québécois et antillais ont recours à l'intégration du joual et du créole dans leurs textes respectifs. Etant donné que ces langues sont plus souvent utilisées par les couches défavorisées, les milieux populaires offrent, du coup, un cadre idéal pour un tel procédé. Il s'agit, dans cette étude, de procéder par une analyse sociolinguistique, sociohistorique et socioculturelle du joual et du créole, en partant des espaces choisis, en l'occurrence le Québec et les Antilles. Lesdits espaces partagent des réalités semblables quant à l'utilisation de la langue comme moyen de défense et de revendication culturelle et identitaire. En outre, étant donné que le joual et le créole sont deux langues orales, il se pose la question de la transcription de l'oral à l'écrit, ses mécanismes et ses fondements. Entendu que les écrivains Québécois et Antillais ont un rapport étroit avec la langue, comment l'utilisent-ils pour affirmer leur identité ? Devant les nombreux défis à relever, notamment la préservation du français au Québec et l'affirmation d'une identité communautaire, ainsi que la créolisation des Antilles, les écrivains ont recours à des techniques particulières qu'il convient de découvrir, dans un contexte de diversité et d'affirmation identitaire. Aujourd'hui, l'évolution des pratiques langagières amène les auteurs et leurs lecteurs à parler l'anglais et le créole car désormais, la mixité des langues est un facteur à considérer dans l'affirmation de l'identité des Québécois et des Antillais.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose. To explore the experiences of healthcare managers at a reformed CSSS (Centres de sante et de services sociaux) in Montreal, Quebec and to document the provincial reforms. The objective is to understand the managers' experiences during a period of transition.Method. This study consists of two methods: a document review of relevant policies and reforms of Quebec's health and social services. Secondly, qualitative interview methods were used to explore the experiences of seven managers within a CSSS and their attitudes towards the reform.
Results. Managers described the following: a new window of opportunity, importance of leadership in the reform process, distorted communication, environment of trust, and culture of the organisation.
Conclusion. Quebec's health and social services is an ongoing discourse. Distorted communication creates an atmosphere of uncertainty which hinders the reform process. Implications include the need for further research in understanding healthcare professionals and other actors in the reform process.

Full textAbstract:
The Quebec of the Quiet Revolution invites a fascinating sociocultural study, and this analysis provides an overview of major changes there during the 1960s and 1970s. The author analyzes how artistic, literary, and musical contributions of the era reflected the public's sentiments toward this metamorphosis. References to political cartoons, plays, poetry, songs, and non-fiction works such as essays and manifestos illustrate attitudes toward the shifting role of the Catholic Church, the arrival of a Liberal government following an ultra-conservative administration, the feminist movement, economic and education reform, and the transformation of Quebec's identity through fierce debates over the status of French and English in the province. Policies enacted by Quebec Prime Ministers, especially Maurice Duplessis, Jean Lesage, and René Lévesque were pivotal to the emerging society. Events such as Vatican II, the publication of the Encyclical letter Humanae Vitae, and the efforts of Catholic Action revealed two concurrent strains of Catholicism present in Quebec and the extent to which the Church had become disconnected from society. This study examines major feminist aims within the historical and literary context and considers how collective efforts were critical to advancing their agenda. Ambitious economic measures enabled Quebec's francophone population to catch up to their anglophone counterparts and promoted the long-term prosperity of the entire province. The study features perspectives informed by recent interviews conducted with Quebecois people who witnessed, participated in, and reflected on these dramatic events.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the political communications strategies of the Scottish National Party and the Bloc Quebecois during the 1997 national elections in the UK and Canada and how these two political parties have promoted their nationalist message, as well as their relationship with the journalists who deliver it. It challenges the consensus that the quality of a party's political communication is the main determinant of its electoral success, and looks at the role of other factors, such as historical, political, cultural and social conditions, and how such factors influence the role of journalists in promulgating nationalism. This is done through an examination of nationalism and cultural identity as well as political journalism in Britain, Scotland, Canada and Quebec; an analysis of the histories of the Scottish National Party and the Bloc Quebecois; data from interviews with journalists and party strategists; an analysis of the political communications strategies of the two parties before 1997; and case studies of the SNP and the Bloc during the 1997 elections in Canada and the UK, which include data from media coverage and party political documents. The author concludes that it is these other factors that have had more of an influence on the electoral outcomes of the Scottish National Party and the Bloc Quebecois rather than their political communication, and which have also determined the sometimes adversarial nature of the relationship that political journalists in Scotland and Quebec have had with these nationalist parties.

Barr, Jane E. "The origins and emergence of Quebec's environmental movement : 1970-1985." Thesis, McGill University, 1995. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=22560.
Full textAbstract:
This qualitatively-oriented thesis explores, describes, and interprets the emergence of Quebec's environmental movement, placing it in its proper historical and socio-political setting. The environmental movement was one of the myriad of new social movements that arose in the 1960s and '70's in western nations. Although it transcended national boundaries, development of environmental movements in Europe and North America differed, just as they did at more regional levels, depending on cultural distinctions, the structures of opportunity, and the amount of available resources, among other things. With its Quiet Revolution, Quebec society gained a new pluralism, secularism, and liberalism that gave the rising middle class and the large proportion of educated youth a greater say in decisions and fostered the development of public interest groups, such as environmental groups. These were aided by government grants that became available after the October Crisis in 1970. Between 1970 and 1980, environmentalism in Quebec became a legitimate societal concern as various associations and individuals began working separately and together on urban air and water pollution problems, recycling projects, and transportation and energy issues, among others. The impetus to act on behalf of the province's environment was due in part to the severity and distribution of pollution problems and to the moral and ideological convictions of group leaders and core members of environmental groups. Informal social and communication networks, such as the counterculture, the antinuclear movement, and health-food coops provided the burgeoning environmental movement with ideologies, members, and solidarity. Unlike its parallel in the United States, Quebec's movement had few historical or ideological links with efforts to preserve wilderness and it developed social- rather than nature-protection principles.

Dans la version du monde que presentent les six poetes congolais et quebecois, roland giguere, gaston miron, maxime ndebeka, yves prefontaine, jean-baptiste tati-loutard, tchicaya u tam'si, l'enfermement est une structure en cercles concentriques. Le premier cercle devoile un enfermement socio-culturel sous les oripeaux d'une realite sociale integree et anesthesiante. En se revoltant contre cette reification collective, le poete ou son heros franchit le second cercle, celui de l'enfermement physique. Mais le prisonnier politique, bien que seul entre les murs, continue a penser pour la communaute opprimee.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to illustrate, through a case-study, the sociohistorical and ideological constraints to which the activity of translation is subject. Underlying the source text that was chosen--Dario Fo's Mistero buffo--there is one particular ideologeme which can be summed up as follows: 'the people have always been exploited'. In Michel Tremblay's 1973 translation, this ideologeme is converted into a different ideologeme: 'the Quebecois have always been exploited'. In order to shed light on this radical transformation, both plays are first situated in their sociocultural contexts and then analysed in terms of the social discourse that prevailed at the time of their reception in Italian and Quebecois society respectively. In this descriptive study the concept of 'pertinence'--as opposed to the translation's aesthetic merit per se--is employed as the chief criterion for interpreting translational shifts; the pattern of these shifts indicates that they are motivated principally by Tremblay's desire to make Mistero buffo correspond to the target audience's horizon of expectations.

Full textAbstract:
Acute otitis media ( AOM) is one of the most common indications for antibiotic use in children. We used the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec databases to better understand the prescribing patterns of physicians and to assess the effectiveness of different antibiotics in the treatment of AOM. We selected a cohort of 60,513 children aged < 6 years with a first episode of AOM between June 1999 and June 2002. Failure was defined as either a new dispensation of antibiotic or a hospitalization or outpatient visit for complications related to AOM in the following 30 days. The antibiotic most widely used was amoxicillin (42.8%). Failure occurred in 12,693 (21%) children. Overall, azithromycin was the only antibiotic that was less associated with failure when compared to amoxicillin (odds ratio 0.88; 95% confidence interval 0.82, 0.94). In the first 3 days of treatment, a 50% increased risk of failure was seen when macrolides were initially given. However, azithromycin was associated with a 20% decrease in the risk of failure occurring > 14 days after the beginning of treatment. Other risk factors associated with treatment failure were age < 24 months, antibiotics or hospitalization in the preceding month, and otitis-prone conditions. Considering the results of the effectiveness study, the importance of macrolides resistance among pneumococci, and because there is no single factor or combination of factors that predict with certainty which child will develop early or late failure, amoxicillin should remain the first-line drug of choice.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic, relatively uncommon autoimmune disease that has a relapsing-remitting course, with clinical manifestations in various organ systems (cutaneous, renal, and other). To control disease, immunosuppressive drugs are often required. Health administrative databases are useful for studying SLE because of their wide population coverage, and could potentially be used to study SLE incidence, prevalence, clinical manifestations, and medication use. However, because the diagnoses in these administrative databases are not necessarily clinically confirmed, SLE case ascertainment is a methodological challenge. First, some of the methodological issues were examined in this thesis. Second, clinical manifestations and the association between early antimalarial drug use and future renal manifestations were examined in a cohort of SLE patients. Methods: The initial SLE case definition was a previously-used algorithm that identified subjects as having SLE if they met one of the following criteria: one SLE hospital discharge code, one rheumatologist SLE claim and/or two SLE non-rheumatologist claims at least eight weeks apart but within two years. Alternative algorithms were formed by modifying one or more of the initial algorithm's parameters. Incidence and prevalence estimates were determined using each alternative algorithm and compared to the initial estimates. The effect of using different data period lengths for detecting patients was also examined. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) analyses were performed to assess documentation of clinical SLE manifestations and use of selected immunosuppressant medications, within an incident SLE cohort identified by the initial algorithm (described above). The observation interval began four years prior to SLE diagnosis and continued up to eight years after SLE diagnosis. Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used to examine the association between early antimalarial drug use and renal manifestations. Results: With the initial algorithm, the 1998 yearly incidence was 6.0 cases per 100,000 (95% confidence interval (CI), 5.5–6.6). When parameters from the initial algorithm were changed, the 1998 incidence varied to between 4.4 and 7.4/100,000. The prevalence also changed from 65.5/100,000 (95% CI: 63.7–67.4) with the initial algorithm, to between 47.8–79.1/100,000 with the alternate algorithms. When the length of the data period changed from fifteen years to five years, the 2001 yearly incidence was overestimated by 38.3% (5.7/100,000 initially and 7.9/100,000 with only five years of data) and the prevalence was underestimated by 29.9% (the new estimate being 46.0/100,000, 95% CI: 44.4–47.5).Over-all, 66.2% (95%CI: 63.4–68.9%) of incident patients (within the SLE cohort assembled using the initial algorithm) had evidence of at least one SLE manifestation within the period under examination. The most common manifestation was cutaneous involvement, present in 30.0%. Within the sub-cohort of incident SLE patients covered by RAMQ drug insurance, 87.2% (95% CI: 84.2–90.3%) had received at least one of the medications under study, by the end of the study interval. No association was found between early antimalarial drug use and subsequent renal manifestations.Conclusion: Varying the case definition and data period can change incidence and prevalence estimates considerably, so all features, including the time period in which the data spans, should be selected carefully and explicitly stated. The majority of incident SLE patients had evidence of SLE manifestations or used medications which would provide possible confirmation of SLE case status. This additional information can be used in future health services administrative database research to understand SLE, and help compensate for the databases' lack of clinical confirming data.Contexte : Le lupus érythémateux disséminé (LED) est une maladie auto-immune chronique relativement peu commune. L'évolution de cette maladie est décrite en phases de poussées et de rémissions et ses manifestations cliniques touchent plusieurs organes. L'utilisation de médicaments immunosuppresseurs est souvent nécessaire pour contrôler le LED. Les banques de données administratives du domaine de la santé s'avèrent utiles pour étudier le LED, car elles pourraient être utilisées pour étudier l'incidence, la prévalence et les manifestations cliniques. Toutefois, comme les diagnostics présents dans ces bases de données administratives n'ont pas nécessairement de confirmation clinique, la détermination des cas de LED représente un défi d'ordre méthodologique et certains de ces problèmes méthodologiques font l'objet de la présente thèse.Méthodologie : L'algorithme initial de définition de cas de LED a déjà été utilisé pour identifier des sujets atteints de LED s'ils répondaient aux critères suivants : un code de congé d'hôpital de LED, une réclamation d'un rhumatologue pour le LED et/ou deux réclamations par un médecin autre qu'un rhumatologue pour le LED séparées d'au moins huit semaines, mais dans un intervalle de deux ans. D'autres algorithmes ont été créés en modifiant un paramètre ou plus de l'algorithme initial. Des estimations d'incidence et de prévalence ont été obtenues grâce à chaque algorithme créé et ces valeurs ont été comparées aux estimations initiales. L'effet de l'utilisation de périodes de données de différentes longueurs sur la détection des patients a également été examiné. Des analyses Kaplan-Meier (K-M) ont été faites pour évaluer la documentation des manifestations cliniques du LED et l'utilisation de médicaments immunosuppresseurs spécifiques au sein d'une cohorte incidente de patients atteints de LED identifiés par l'algorithme initial (décrit plus haut). L'intervalle d'observation a débuté quatre ans avant le diagnostic de LED et s'est poursuivi jusqu'à huit ans après le diagnostic. Des analyses utilisant le modèle de régression à risques proportionnels de Cox ont servi à examiner l'association entre l'utilisation précoce d'antipaludiques et les manifestations rénales. Résultats : Avec l'algorithme initial, l'incidence annuelle de LED en 1998 était de 6,0 cas pour 100 000 habitants (95 % d'intervalle de confiance (CI), 5,5-6,6). En changeant les paramètres de l'algorithme initial, l'incidence en 1998 a varié entre 4,4 et 7,4 pour 100 000. La prévalence a passé de 65,5 pour 100 000 (95 % CI : 63,7–67,4) avec l'algorithme initial à entre 47,8–79,1 pour 100 000 avec les autres algorithmes. En modifiant la longueur des périodes de données de quinze à cinq ans, l'incidence annuelle en 2001 était surestimée par 38,3 %.Dans l'ensemble, 66,2 % (95 % CI : 63,4–68,9 %) des patients incidents au sein de la cohorte de patients atteints de LED assemblée grâce à l'algorithme initial montraient au moins une manifestation de LED au cours de la période évaluée. Au sein d'une sous-cohorte de patients incidents atteints de LED couverts par la RAMQ, 87,2 % (95 % CI : 84,2–90,3 %) ont reçu au moins un médicament à l'étude avant la fin de l'intervalle étudié. Aucune association n'a été trouvée entre l'utilisation précoce d'antipaludiques et les manifestations rénales subséquentes. Conclusion : La variation de la définition de cas et de la période de données peut modifier considérablement les estimations d'incidence et de prévalence. Ainsi, tous les paramètres, y compris la période de temps pour laquelle les données sont recueillies, devraient être choisis avec précaution. La majorité des patients incidents atteints de LED montrent des manifestations de LED qui pourraient offrir une confirmation potentielle des cas de LED. Ces informations supplémentaires pourront être utilisées pour des études futures sur les bases de données des services de soins de santé afin de mieux comprendre le LED.

Full textAbstract:
The central purpose of my thesis is to review Quebec's most recent legislation on bullying, Bill 56, in order to guide schools on how to meet its requirements to reduce cyberbullying. To do so, I review the content and highlight the common themes in 40 briefs submitted by various stakeholders to the Committee on Culture and Education suggesting amendments to Bill 56. I then analyze whether these suggestions were responded to by the government in its amendments to the Bill, which was assented in June 2012. To critique the assented version of Bill 56, I outline several themes in scholarly literature about bullying and cyberbullying prevention. This serves to highlight the existent gaps between Bill 56 and best practices of cyberbullying prevention. I also critique the new legislation by pinpointing knowledge gaps and challenges of Bill 56 that were not included in the 40 briefs submitted to the Committee on Culture and Education. Finally, I conclude by introducing a best practices model to guide schools on how to implement Bill 56 in order to sustainably address cyberbullying.Le but central de ma mémoire de maîtrise est d'examiner la plus récente législation contre l'intimidation au Québec, la loi 56, pour guider les écoles sur la façon de répondre à l'exigence de réduire des cas de cyberintimidation. Afin de le faire, j'analyse le contenu et je relève les thèmes communs des 40 mémoires déposés à la Commission de la culture et de l'éducation par des différents intervenants suggérant des amendements au projet de loi 56. Ensuite, j'évalue si les suggestions avaient étés incorporés dans la loi 56, qui avait été sanctionnée en juin 2012. Pour critiquer la version sanctionnée de la loi 56, je fais ressortir quelques thèmes retrouvés dans les ouvrages académiques portant sur la prévention de l'intimidation et de la cyberintimidation. Ceux-ci servent à identifier les manquements et les défis de la loi 56 qui n'avaient pas étés inclus dans les mémoires déposées à la Commission de la culture et de l'éducation.

Full textAbstract:
Tant en france qu'au quebec, des regles ont ete elaborees afin d'assujettir l'administration publique a un regime de responsabilite et ainsi accorder une protection aux administres. En france, ces regles sont le fruit de la jurisprudence du conseil d'etat, auquel s'est joint le legislateur pour en restreindre ou en elargir le domaine d'application. Au quebec, seul ce dernier avait le pouvoir de les edicter et il a choisi d'assujettir l'etat aux regles du droit civil. L'etude et la comparaison de ces regles demontrent que, bien que les deux systemes juridiques etudies comportent de nombreuses similitudes, le droit francais s'avere neanmoins plus protecteur pour les administres, tant en matiere de responsabilite pour faute que sans faute. Toutefois, cette protection accrue est contrebalancee par une indemnisation moins genereuse. En effet, malgre des regles generales d'indemnisation ne comportant pas de differences fondamentales entre les deux systemes, les indemnites accordees par les tribunaux francais, du moins pour les prejudices moraux presentant un caractere plus subjectif, sont nettement inferieures a celles accordees par les tribunaux quebecois. Cette disparite de traitement entre les citoyens quebecois et francais est le resultat de l'orientation prise au depart dans la reconnaissance de cette responsabilite : de principe en france, d'exception au quebec; et du choix de considerer, ou non, les pouvoirs exerces par l'etat dans leur specificite et de proteger les citoyens en tentant de concilier les interets et droits en causeIn both france and quebec, many rules have been elaborated to subject the public administration at a liability regime and hence to grant a protection to citizens. In france, these rules are the result of the conseil d'etat decisions, in wich the legislator has limited or widen theirs application. In quebec, only the latter was able to adopt these rules and has chosen to subject the state at civil law rules. The study and the comparison of these rules show us that, though both legal systems studied present many similarities, the french system proves nevertheless the most protective for people, so much in matter of liability for fault as without fault. However, this better protection is level-headed by a less generous indemnisation. Indeed, in spite of general rules without fundamental difference between this two systems, the indemnities granted by french courts, at least for moral loss looking a more subjective caracter, was clearly lower than those grant by the quebec courts. This inequality of treatment between french and quebec citizens is the result of the first orientation in the recognition of this liability : from principle in france, exceptionnal in quebec; also on the choice to consider, or not, the specific powers of the state and to protect the citizens in trying to reconcile the concerned interests and rights

Full textAbstract:
In order to accommodate the needs and abilities of all students, many high schools have designed programs for those students who are unable to cope within regular high school streams. These alternative programs have included vocational education, work experience education, various forms of tracking, and within Quebec, the Individualized Paths for Learning Program (IPL). Individualized Paths for Learning was developed to allow "at risk" students to work towards their high school diploma at a more individualised pace, and to ease their transition into the work force through job skills training and work site experience. As this case study of an Individualized Paths for Learning program suggests however, IPL in practice provides very limited work and academic preparation for the students involved. Through interviews with students and staff, and participant observation within the classroom the limitations of the program become apparent. Yet paradoxically both students and staff were committed to the program and continued to subscribe to the importance of education which is fostered both socially and by the IPL program itself. Within this case study, the students' impressions of the IPL program were of special interest. It is their words, as those most involved and affected by it, that are used in analysis. While this study is specific to its setting it hopefully will provide insight into work education programs following similar principles.

Abstract : Manufacturing companies in developed countries face a digital transformation that is meant to improve their productivity, but also produces a large volume of data. This data will go to waste if it is not valorized by using it to gain actionable insights, for example with business intelligence and analytics. This master’s thesis presents a systematic literature review and a multiple case-study on the subject of Business Intelligence in manufacturing companies. The first article, “Business Intelligence in Industry 4.0: Research opportunities”, present a literature review. Results show a lack of studies on the impacts of business intelligence activities on manufacturing small and medium enterprises. The strategic impacts should be studied, since they are often neglected in favor of the operational impacts such as quality improvement and operating costs reductions. The second article, “Business intelligence value creation: A multiple case study in manufacturing SMEs”, presents an exploration of the factors influencing strategic and operational business values of business intelligence. Results show the limit of the traditional models based on the Resource-Based View of the firm, which overlooks organizational factors that might be more important in smaller organizations. Contingency factors, such as organisational learning, leadership style, and the role of the owner, should be included when studying small and medium enterprises, as in these smaller organizations the lack of resources and the simpler structure affect business value of business intelligence and analytics systems differently than in larger firms. There is an interesting potential for the model suggested in this master’s thesis to understand the factors linked to business value creation in smaller organization, which should be empirically tested with a larger and more diverse sample in a future study.Ce mémoire présente les travaux réalisés dans le cadre de ma maîtrise en Stratégie de l’intelligence d’affaires, de l’École de Gestion de l’Université de Sherbrooke.

Full textAbstract:
Les expressions figées ont été longtemps considérées comme un aspect marginal de la langue. Il en résulte un traitement très fragmentaire et anarchique dans les dictionnaires, monolingues et bilingues, qui leur ont toujours accordé et continuent de leur accorder une petite place. Les expressions figées comportent, en outre, des difficultés de compréhension et de traduction dans la langue étrangère car elles possèdent des structures syntaxiques particulières qui n’ont pas toujours d’équivalents analogues dans d’autres langues. C’est pourquoi notre travail se donne pour objectif d’évaluer la traduction en italien et, pour quelques ouvrages aussi en espagnol, des québécismes phraséologiques, c’est-à-dire des expressions figées appartenant à la variété québécoise du français. Notre mémoire se divise en quatre chapitres. Le premier chapitre présentera les théories linguistiques élaborées au cours des deux derniers siècles, selon les différentes approches que les linguistes ont adoptées pour définir et classifier les expressions figées. Dans le deuxième chapitre, nous analyserons le traitement des expressions figées à l’intérieur des dictionnaires bilingues français-italien et français-espagnol, afin de déterminer dans quelle mesure ces outils peuvent satisfaire les exigences des traducteurs. Pour finir, nous expliquerons les problèmes liés à la traduction des expressions figées et les stratégies que les traducteurs adoptent pour résoudre ces problèmes.Dans le troisième chapitre nous nous concentrerons sur la variété diatopique du français du Québec et sur les particularités que les expressions figées québécoises présentent par rapport aux expressions figées du français de référence. Dans le quatrième et dernier chapitre, nous procèderons à l’analyse intralinguistique et contrastive des citations. L’analyse intralinguistique a été possible grâce à la consultation de plusieurs dictionnaires francophones, qui servent pour étudier le sens des québécismes et pour comprendre leur originalité par rapport au FrR. L’analyse contrastive permettra d’évaluer la traduction en italien et en espagnol des expressions figées québécoises.

Full textAbstract:
Graduate students are an important part of the academic workforce. However, little is known on their overall contribution to science. Using the participation in Web of Science indexed peer-reviewed publications of the complete population of doctoral students in Quebec over the 2000-2007 period (N=27,393), this thesis achieves three main contributions to the advancement of knowledge in the fields of information science, sociology of the scientific community and sociology of higher education.The first contribution is a technical one and involves the creation of an algorithm that allows the automatic attribution of a large proportion of individual researchers' papers. Indeed, using the patterns found in Quebec university researchers' use of keywords, cited references and discipline of publication, the algorithm automatically attributes or rejects at least one scientific paper to 88% of doctoral students.
The second contribution is to provide a large-scale analysis of doctoral students' socialization to research, using the percentage of doctoral students who have published at least one paper during their program as an indicator. It shows that this integration varies greatly among disciplines, with students in the natural and medical sciences being more integrated into research than their colleagues of the social sciences and humanities. Collaboration is an important component of this socialization: disciplines in which student-faculty collaboration are higher are also those in which doctoral students are the most integrated into research. Access to research funds also influences doctoral students participation in peer-reviewed papers, as specialties where professors receive greater research funds are also those where students are the most likely to publish. Although the papers to which doctoral students contribute are most often written in collaboration, they are less likely to be the result of international collaboration. Such socialization to research is also positively linked with students' degree completion and the likelihood of a subsequent career in research.
Finally, the third contribution of this thesis is to measure the percentage of the research output of the research system produced by doctoral students. It provides evidence that, for all disciplines combined, PhD students account for 33% of the publication output of the province, a percentage that is considerably higher than that of Quebec hospital researchers taken together and more than 5 times higher than that of federal and industrial researchers of the province. In terms of scientific impact, papers to which doctoral students have contributed obtain significantly lower citation rates than other Quebec papers to which they have not contributed, although the average impact factor of the journals in which they publish is significantly higher. This suggests that the scientific impact of doctoral students' papers may suffer from a Matthew Effect, the sociological phenomenon observed by which recognition for discoveries is more easily attributed to well known scientists than to others less known.
Overall, this interdisciplinary thesis provides a significant insight into the extent, the context and the effect of socialization to research in the PhD curriculum, as well as a better understanding of the importance of doctoral students' scientific contributions within Quebec's research system. These findings should be of great interest to university administrators as well as for research councils and the science policy community in general.
Les étudiants gradués comptent pour une part importante de la main d'uvre académique. Toutefois, nous ne savons que très peu de choses sur leur contribution globale à l'avancement des connaissances. À partir des articles publiés dans des revues à comités de pairs et indexés dans le Web of Science par la population complète des étudiants au doctorat au Québec entre et 2000 et 2007 (N=27,393), cette thèse effectue trois contributions principales à l'avancement des connaissances en sciences de l'information et en sociologie de la communauté scientifique et de l'enseignement supérieur.
La première contribution est de nature technique et consiste en la création d'un algorithme qui permet l'attribution automatique à un chercheur d'un pourcentage important de ses articles scientifiques. En effet, en utilisant les régularités trouvées dans les mots-clés, références citées et la discipline de publication des chercheurs universitaires québécois, cet algorithme permet l'attribution ou le rejet automatique d'au moins un article à 88% des étudiants de doctorat.
La seconde contribution est l'analyse à grande échelle de la socialisation des doctorants à la recherche, en utilisant comme indicateur le pourcentage d'étudiants au doctorat qui ont publié au moins un papier au cours de leur programme. Les données montrent que cette intégration varie considérablement entre les disciplines : les étudiants des sciences naturelles et médicales étant plus intégrés à la recherche que leurs collègues des sciences sociales et humaines. La collaboration est un élément important de cette socialisation: les disciplines dans lesquelles la collaboration doctorant-professeur est la plus élevée étant celles où les doctorants sont les plus intégrés dans la recherche. L'accès à des fonds de recherche influence également la participation des étudiants à des publications; les spécialités où les professeurs reçoivent davantage de fonds étant également celles où les étudiants sont plus susceptibles de publier. Bien que les documents auxquels ont contribués les doctorants soient pratiquement tous écrits en collaboration, ils sont moins souvent le résultat d'une collaboration internationale. Cette socialisation à la recherche est également liée de façon positive avec l'obtention du diplôme et la poursuite d'une carrière en recherche.
Enfin, la troisième contribution de cette thèse est la mesure de l'importance, dans l'ensemble de la recherche québécoise, des résultats de recherche auxquels des étudiants de doctorat ont contribué. On y constate que, toutes disciplines confondues, les doctorants ont participé à 33% de la production scientifique de la province, un pourcentage considérablement plus élevé que celui des chercheurs en milieu hospitalier de la province combinés et plus de 5 fois supérieur à celui des chercheurs du gouvernement fédéral et du secteur industriel. En termes d'impact scientifique, les articles auxquels les doctorants ont contribué obtiennent un nombre moyen de citations significativement plus faible celui des autres papiers québécois auxquels ils n'ont pas contribué, même si le facteur d'impact moyen de revues dans lesquelles ils publient est, au contraire, significativement plus élevé. Cela suggère que les articles des doctorants souffrent de l'effet St-Matthieu, phénomène selon lequel la paternité d'une découverte sera plus aisément attribuée à un chercheur reconnu qu'à un autre l'étant moins.
Dans l'ensemble, cette thèse interdisciplinaire fournit une mesure unique de la prévalence, du contexte et de l'effet de la socialisation à la recherche dans les programmes de doctorat ainsi qu'une une meilleure compréhension de l'importance des doctorants au sein de la communauté scientifique québécoise. Ces résultats devraient être d'un grand intérêt pour les administrateurs d'université, les conseils subventionnaires ainsi que les chercheurs dans le domaine des politiques scientifiques.

Full textAbstract:
In 1998 the Supreme Court of Canada was asked by the federal government to gives it opinion on a matter that goes to the very heart of the Canadian constitution. In short: does Quebec have the right, both in terms of international and domestic law, to secede from Canada? The answer would have implications not only for the Canadian constitution but international law as well.
In the event that these questions were resolved by a sovereigntist government in Quebec and that government assumed a mandate to pursue secession from the rest of Canada, to what extent under international law is the question of secession now regulated by international legal norms? In the process of researching this thesis, I came across the work of jurists who vehemently dispute the Supreme Court's contention that the legitimacy of the process of secession is a pre-condition for international recognition nor is it an established norm of international law, as was suggested by the court in its judgment. They maintain that there are a number of cases that contradict the Court. Whether these cases are relevant to the Canadian question of secession, is open to debate. However, it seems clear that, far from being well-established international law, these issues continue to be extremely problematic. But it does seem clear that the question of secession and recognition in the international system are now, to some extent, subject to certain legal criteria, some of which (e.g. self-determination) are raised by the court in the context of the Reference and must now be regarded as applying to the case of Quebec at least.

Full textAbstract:
Voici un exemple de parataxe enonciative : ". . . Alors je travaillais dans mon. . . Merde, t'as vu la bagnole ?" dans la situation particuliere d'interview que j'etudie, un enonciateur a va interrompre son co-enonciateur b et construire l'ancrage d'une nouvelle notion ou theme meme si l'enonciation anterieure n'est pas close. Ce theme est tire, non pas de la realite referentielle comme dans l'exemple ci-dessus mais bien d'un valideur c'est-a-dire d'un questionnaire contenant des sujets a propos desquels a et b ont convenu de discourir. Mon etude debute avec le debut de la parataxe. Un certain nombre de problemes d'interaction et de referenciation vont se poser. Du point de vue interactionnel, les deux enonciateurs vont s'efforcer d'etablir la stabilisation de la notion linguistique ("de quoi allons-nous parler maintenant ?"). A, tient plus ou moins les commandes dans cette partie de l'interaction mais la participation de b se caracterise par une certaine resistance. Du point de vue referentiel, les deux enonciateurs vont s'efforcer de construire une predication reliee a la nouvelle notion ("qu'est-ce que c'est ?" "que se passe-t-il a son sujet ?") b tient alors les commandes et a ecoute. . . Plus ou moins. Je suis le deroulement de cette parataxe enonciative en m'efforcant de demontrer qu'il s'agit d'un processus dialectique. De fait, ce travail est aussi un essai ou je cherche a prendre mes distances par rapport a la principale "philosophie spontanee" de la linguistique actuelle : le positivisme. En me basant sur la theorie des reperages enonciatifs de a. Culioli et la logique naturelle de j. B. Grize, j'essaie de travailler dans le sens du materialisme dialectique, pour une linguistique dialectique. La langue etudiee est le vernaculaire quebecois, un vernaculaire du francais parle par la majorite de la population du quebec (amerique du nord). Un certain nombre de formes linguistiques comme ah, ben, disons, mettons, justement, comme etc. Sont etudiees. Tous les exemples paraphrastiques sont tires d'un corpus sociolinguistique de langue oraleThis is an example of enonciative paratax : ". . . Then ! was working out in my. . . Chit ! have you seen that car !". In the very pecular interview situation i study, an enonciator a will interrupt his co-enonciator b and build the anchoring of a new notion or topic even if the precedent enonciation is not over. This topic is taken out not from the referantial reality as in the uppoer example but from a validor i. E. A questionnaire containing matters a and b agreed together to speak about. My study begins with the beginning of the paratax. A certain number of problems of interaction and referenciation will occur. From the interactive point of view, both of the enonciators will behave to establish the stabilisation of the linguistic notion ("what are we going to talk about now ?". A is, more or less, the leader in this part of the interaction but the membership of b is characterized by a certain resistance. From the referential point of view, both of the enonciators will behave to build a predication linked to the new notion ("what is it ?" "what is going on about it ?". B is now the leader and a listen. . . More or less i follow the spreading out of this enonciativ paratax, trying to make the demonstration of the fact that it is a dialectial processus. As a matter of fact, this work is also an essay where try to take some distance from the main "spontaneous philosophy" in linguistic today : positivism. Basing muself on a. Culioli's enonciativ reperages theory and j. B. Grize natural logic, i try to work in the direction of dialectic materialism, for a dialectial linguistic. The language studied is the quebecois vernacular, a french dialect spoken by the majority of population of quebec (north america). A certain number of linguistics forms as ah, ben, disons, mettons, justement, comme, etc are studied. All the paraphrastic examples are coming from a sociolinguistical oral corpus

L'augmentation récente du nombre des demandes d'asile pose un grave problème aux démocraties industrialisées. L'engorgement des instances chargées de la reconnaissance du statut de réfugié a souvent suscite des pratiques répressives soutenues par une opinion publique mal informée. Ces pratiques sont étudiées pour dégager les principes qui devraient guider l'action des pouvoirs publics. En introduction, la problématique actuelle des demandeurs d'asile est exposée, suivie d'une présentation de l'effort du Canada et de la France envers les réfugiés. En première partie, un historique de l'asile et du concept juridique moderne de refugié permet de cerner les éléments d'une définition de l'asile. En deuxième partie, les règles d'entrée et de séjour du demandeur d'asile dans le pays d'accueil sont exposées et comparées. En troisième partie, le condition sociale du demandeur d'asile est étudiée dans les deux pays, de même que les règles protectrices qui régissent la procédure de reconnaissance du statut de réfugié. En conclusion, les principes dégages sont synthétisés, développés puis rapprochés de la protection de la dignité de tout être humainThe recent increase in the number of asylum-seekers in industrialized states has given headaches to public administrations. The overburdening of refugee status determination systems has given rise to restrictive pratices approved by a badly informed public opinion. These practices are studied in view of defining the principles that should guide polices in the field. In the introduction, the present situation of asylum-seekers is described and followed by a presentation of the French and Canadian efforts towards refugees. In the first part, a short history of asylum and of the contemporary concept of refugee allows to apprehend the elements of a definition of asylum. In the second part, the rules of entry and sojourn of the asylum-seeker in the country of asylum are described and compared. In the third part, the social condition of the asylum-seeker is studied in both countries, as well as the protective rules of the refugee status determination system. In the conclusion, the principles defines are synthetized, developped and gathered under the umbrella of the protection of the human dignity

Full textAbstract:
We are witness today, within a context of an increasingly integrated European Union, to the making of a new common legal order which is that of the European Community. This new ius commune Europaeum will have to be based on legal foundations that can be adhered to by all member states. In this perspective, it is indispensable to investigate whether domestic legal systems of the member states are able to adopt legal concepts of other member states without undermining their cohesive natures. Only then will it be possible to build the emerging ius commune on a conceptual legal framework, which is not to be perceived as a Fremdkorper in the participating states. The present thesis analyzes how Quebec's civilian jurisdiction adopted the common law concepts of the trust and unconscionability, in order to answer the question whether, and if so how, European civil law jurisdictions may adopt common legal concepts and yet remain cohesive.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis aims to analyse the influence the media have on the political evolution of a particular society. Quebec is still a society in the making within Canada, a country that is itself changing radically. Studying how identity is formed in Quebec in relation to Canada reveals how much identity is a question of perception diversely constituted and still unstable. After discussing MacLuhan's media theory we outline a theoretical framework on the role media play in ideological debates which leads us to examine the different forces at play in the process of newsmaking. We examine the place public broadcasting, especially the television of Radio-Canada, holds in the political and constitutional debate. The independence of the institution conflicts with a structural duality - reflecting Canadian unity while addressing mainly Quebec viewers. Radio-Canada's position in the referendum campaign and the dialogue between television and the press reveal some fundamental mechanisms that produce long-term trends in opinion movement. Criticisms of referendum campaign coverage allow us to define generally the place the media hold in society and the influence they have. The media are not an independent force. They are an integral part of the political system and if they exercise a strong influence they are the prime object of intense competition between different forces. The alliance between the political world and major economic interests is certainly a powerful and determinant tool allowing the elite to maintain their leadership over society, but evidence shows that civil society gains autonomy and becomes an increasingly influential actor. The tactic of holding referenda to obtain Quebec's independence from Canada has failed as much as the attempt to make Canada a nation-state because Quebec civil society managed to bypass the establishment's agenda and to express its unease about an alternative that was largely incompatible with the nature of its identity.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis expands Signitzer and Coombs' (1992) seminal study on the conceptual convergence of public diplomacy and public relations. Similar to international public relations, public diplomacy serves to transmit infolination, promote influence, create understanding and build relationships. However, a review of the existing academic literature reveals that the public diplomacy/public relations nexus has received insufficient attention from scholars. The purpose of the study is to determine whether there exists a strong enough similarity between the two domains to actively theorize public diplomacy from a communications (public relations) perspective.
The research systematically applies the Signitzer and Coombs comparative model to interpret evidence of conceptual convergence in five areas of Quebec's public diplomacy (academic and cultural relations, investment and tourism promotion, and sports diplomacy). It is demonstrated that public diplomacy and public relations are both premised on the concept of symmetry, but also share asymmetrical tendencies. The findings suggest that the two disciplines are experiencing a process of convergence and support the value of exploring public diplomacy with public relations-based theories and models. However, public diplomacy practitioners are generally unwilling to recognize the relationship between public diplomacy and public relations. The development of shared concepts is therefore encouraged to overcome these perceptual gaps. Future research centred on common functions, such as reputation management and relationship building, is proposed and the thesis concludes that interdisciplinary cooperation is necessary to advance the public diplomacy scholarship.

Il a été avancé que des apprenants expérimentés développeraient des niveaux élevés de conscience métalinguistique (MLA), ce qui leur faciliterait l'apprentissage de langues subséquentes (p.ex., Singleton & Aronin, 2007). De plus, des chercheurs dans le domaine de l'acquisition des langues tierces insistent sur les influences positives qu'exercent les langues précédemment apprises sur l'apprentissage formel d'une langue étrangère (p.ex., Cenoz & Gorter, 2015), et proposent de délaisser le regard traditionnel qui mettait l'accent sur l'interférence à l'origine des erreurs des apprenants pour opter pour une vision plus large et positive de l'interaction entre les langues. Il a été démontré que la similarité typologique ainsi que la compétence dans la langue source influence tous les types de transfert (p.ex., Ringbom, 1987, 2007). Cependant, le défi méthodologique de déterminer, à la fois l'usage pertinent d'une langue cible en tant que résultat d'une influence translinguistique (p.ex., Falk & Bardel, 2010) et d'établir le rôle crucial de la MLA dans l'activation consciente de mots ou de constructions reliés à travers différentes langues, demeure. La présente étude avait pour but de relever ce double défi en faisant appel à des protocoles oraux (TAPs) pour examiner le transfert positif de l'anglais (L2) vers l'allemand (L3) chez des Québécois francophones après cinq semaines d'enseignement formel de la L3. Les participants ont été soumis à une tâche de traduction développée aux fins de la présente étude. Les 42 items ont été sélectionnés sur la base de jugements de similarité et d'imagibilité ainsi que de fréquence des mots provenant d'une étude de cognats allemands-anglais (Friel & Kennison, 2001). Les participants devaient réfléchir à voix haute pendant qu'ils traduisaient des mots inconnus de l'allemand (L3) vers le français (L1). Le transfert positif a été opérationnalisé par des traductions correctes qui étaient basées sur un cognat anglais. La MLA a été mesurée par le biais du THAM (Test d'habiletés métalinguistiques) (Pinto & El Euch, 2015) ainsi que par l'analyse des TAPs. Les niveaux de compétence en anglais ont été établis sur la base du Michigan Test (Corrigan et al., 1979), tandis que les niveaux d'exposition ainsi que l'intérêt envers la langue et la culture allemandes ont été mesurés à l'aide d'un questionnaire. Une analyse fine des TAPs a révélé de la variabilité inter- et intra-individuelle dans l'activation consciente du vocabulaire en L2, tout en permettant l'identification de niveaux distincts de prise de conscience. Deux modèles indépendants de régressions logistiques ont permis d'identifier les deux dimensions de MLA comme prédicteurs de transfert positif. Le premier modèle, dans lequel le THAM était la mesure exclusive de MLA, a déterminé cette dimension réflexive comme principal prédicteur, suivie de la compétence en anglais, tandis qu'aucune des autres variables indépendantes pouvait prédire le transfert positif de l'anglais. Dans le second modèle, incluant le THAM ainsi que les TAPs comme mesures complémentaires de MLA, la dimension appliquée de MLA, telle que mesurée par les TAPs, était de loin le prédicteur principal, suivie de la dimension réflexive, telle que mesurée par le THAM, tandis que la compétence en anglais ne figurait plus parmi les facteurs ayant une influence significative sur la variable réponse. Bien que la verbalisation puisse avoir influencé la performance dans une certaine mesure, nos observations mettent en évidence la contribution précieuse de données introspectives comme complément aux résultats basés sur des caractéristiques purement linguistiques du transfert. Nos analyses soulignent la complexité des processus métalinguistiques et des stratégies individuelles, ce qui reflète une perspective dynamique du multilinguisme (p.ex., Jessner, 2008).It has been posited that experienced language learners develop higher levels of metalinguistic awareness (MLA), which, in turn, appears to facilitate the acquisition of subsequent languages (e.g., Singleton & Aronin, 2007). Moreover, researchers in the field of Third Language Acquisition (TLA) emphasize the positive influences of previously acquired languages in foreign language classrooms (e.g., Cenoz & Gorter, 2015), in contrast to the traditional focus on interference-based learner errors in the study of language transfer. Typological similarity and source language proficiency are known to influence transfer processes of any kind (e.g., Ringbom, 1987, 2007). However, it remains a methodological challenge both to identify the felicitous use of a target language feature as an effect of cross-linguistic influence (e.g., Falk & Bardel, 2010) and to clearly determine the role of MLA for the conscious activation of related words or constructions across languages. The present study aimed at meeting this double challenge by using think-aloud protocols (TAPs) to investigate positive lexical transfer from English (L2) to German (L3) by French-speaking Quebeckers (N = 66) after five weeks of formal L3 instruction. Participants completed a translation task consisting of 42 items selected on the basis of similarity and imageability ratings as well as word frequencies (Friel & Kennison, 2001). Participants were asked to think aloud while attempting to translate these largely unknown words from German (L3) into French (L1). Positive transfer was operationalized by correct translations that were related to an English cognate. Levels of MLA were measured by means of the THAM (Test d'habiletés métalinguistiques) (Pinto & El Euch, 2015) and complemented by the analysis of the TAPs. Proficiency levels in English were established by means of the Michigan Test (Corrigan et al., 1979), whereas exposure to the different languages as well as interest in the German language and culture were addressed in a background questionnaire. A fine-grained analysis of the TAPs revealed inter- and intra-individual variability in the conscious activation of related L2 vocabulary while allowing for an identification of distinct levels of awareness. Two independent models of logistic regressions revealed that both dimensions of MLA significantly predicted positive transfer. The first model, which featured the THAM as the exclusive measure of MLA, identified this reflexive dimension as the strongest predictor, followed by English language proficiency, whereas none of the other independent variables predicted positive transfer from English. In the second model, which included both the THAM and the TAPs as complementary measures of MLA, the applied dimension of MLA, as measured by the TAPs, was by far the strongest predictor, followed by the reflexive dimension, measured by the THAM, while English proficiency was no longer a significant predictor. Despite the fact that verbalization may have influenced overall performance to a certain extent, our observations point to the invaluable contribution of introspective data to complement findings based on language-inherent characteristics of crosslinguistic influence. Our analyses highlight the complexity of metalinguistic processes and individual strategies related to learner and context variables, in line with a dynamic view of multilingualism (e.g., Jessner, 2008a).

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the role of nostalgia in contemporary Quebec cinema through the analysis of two recent coming-of-age films set in the 1960s: Maman est chez le coiffeur (Léa Pool, 2008) and C'est pas moi, je le jure! (Philippe Falardeau, 2008). While the "nostalgia film" has been roundly criticized for promoting a superficial engagement with history, and a dangerous withdrawal from the present, I argue that in the context of Quebec, it should be understood as performing important critical work. Given the long and influential ties between the coming-of-age film, the family romance, and filmic nostalgia in Quebec to the national imaginary, I argue that these films reflect broader shifts in the state of cultural memory. Far from foreclosing a consideration of the future, films that creatively re-imagine the past enable new and empowering engagements with it. With these issues in mind, I go on to argue for a more measured consideration of the potential of nostalgia itself.Cette étude examine le rôle de la nostalgie dans le cinéma québécois contemporain à travers l'analyse de deux films de 2008 sur le passage à l'âge adulte, dont l'action se déroule dans les années soixante : Maman est chez le coiffeur (Léa Pool, 2008) et C'est pas moi, je le jure ! (Philippe Falardeau, 2008). Alors que les films nostalgiques et la nostalgie elle-même sont vivement critiqués pour prétendument favoriser un rapport superficiel à l'Histoire et un dangereux détachement vis-à-vis du présent, cette Thèse soutient que dans le contexte du Québec, les films traitant du passage à l'âge adulte et de la nostalgie entretiennent de longue date des liens influents avec l'imaginaire collectif et qu'ils doivent être considérés comme porteurs d'un important travail critique. En outre, ces films reflètent les changements profonds advenus dans la mémoire culturelle du Québec et, loin d'empêcher une prise en compte de son avenir, donnent plus de raisons encore de s'engager au regard de celui-ci. Sur la base de ces observations, cette Thèse développe une argumentation en faveur d'une plus juste appréciation du potentiel de la nostalgie elle-même.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis stems from a questioning of the instability of the state's discourse in the cultural domain. In effect, since the appearance in the Western world of the first explicit cultural policies, arguments justifying the state intervention in this domain have ceaselessly changed over time, appealing sometimes to notions such as that of 'democratisation of culture', 'cultural democracy', or to notions of 'cultural development', 'cultural economy', or 'cultural diversity'. The inconsistencies that characterise the state's rationales in this domain notably reflect a continuous quest for legitimacy that is worth analysing. Like elsewhere, the consensus over the legitimacy and the purpose of a cultural policy was not easily reached in the Canadian French province, Quebec. Several policy statements have indeed been formulated before the adoption, in 1992, of Quebec's official cultural policy. To understand the evolution of the justifications for state intervention in this field, we analyse three policy statements that were key in the history of Quebec's cultural policy: Pour une politique (1959); La politique quebecoise du developpement cultureI (1979); and La politique culturelle du Quebec: Notre culture, notre avenir (1992). In a first phase, we examine the politico-historical context from which these policy statements emerge. Secondly, we recount the origins of the most important ideas that we find at the core of these statements and which were rooted in the work of intellectuals (such as Edmond de Nevers, Edouard Montpetit, Marcel Rioux, Fernand Dumont) as well as in governmental reports that predated their elaboration. We then analyse the argumentation of each cultural policy statement as well as the critiques they raised at the moment of their publication. These critiques were formulated as much by journalists as by politicians, artists and other professionals working in the field of culture. The analysis of the argumentation is carried out with a theoretical model that has been developed by French sociologist Luc Boltanski and economist Laurent Thevenot, the Economies of Worth. We explore more particularly the concept of 'compromise' such as it was designed in the model. This concept enables us to understand why cultural policies have difficulty achieving consensus. The application of this model to cultural policy has not been attempted before, so this is one of the original aspects of this thesis.

Boucher, James. "Representations of the Amerindian in French literature and the Post-Imperialist literature of Québec." Diss., University of Iowa, 2016. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/2050.
Full textAbstract:
My research traces the evolution of the French vision of the Indigenous peoples of the Americas by establishing a genealogy of mythic paradigms which frame how French and Quebecois authors understand the Amerindian from 1534 to present. Myth informs French visions of the Amerindian from the earliest periods of contact until the present day. My research reveals the existence of a mythic representational genealogy in the history of French (and Quebecois) letters. Through the written word, reiterations of mythologies of the Native lead to the creation of a crystallized French cultural imaginary of the Amerindian which circumscribes possibilities for reciprocal understandings between French (European) and Native peoples. The Noble and Ignoble Savage, the Ecological Savage (which I also refer to as the nexus of Nature and Native), the Vanishing Indian, and Going Native are the mythologies and narrative technologies that have mediated (and continue to mediate) French thinking about the Indigenous peoples of the Americas. Not only have these mythic paradigms determined literary representation, but they have also inordinately influenced the articulation of scientific truth about the Amerindian and the concretization of Native ontological difference from a Eurocentric perspective. The inextricable link between representation and praxis, confirmed by my insights into the mythic origins of scientific discourses (Buffon, Durkheim, Lévi-Strauss), cannot be underemphasized.
The original myths in that genealogy are the Ignoble and Noble Savage. The Ignoble Savage myth presents the Amerindian as non-human, animal, or monster, in both moral and physical descriptions. The Noble Savage is an idealized portrait of the purity and innocence of Native peoples that Europeans connect to a simpler time and way of life, often seen as belonging to the past. Texts written by Michel de Montaigne and Jean-Jacques Rousseau are instrumental in the creation and propagation of this myth. An important consequence of the Noble and Ignoble Savage myths is an association of the Native with Nature in the French mind, what I refer to as the French cultural imaginary of the Amerindian. The link between the Indigenous peoples of the Americas and Nature is a recurring theme in French texts that represent the Amerindian. The mythologies of the Noble and Ignoble Savage, including the association of the Amerindian with the environment or world of the non-human animal, influence early modern philosophical, religious, scientific and literary images of the Amerindian in French.
In the nineteenth century, the mythic paradigm of the Vanishing Indian becomes the prevailing vision of the Amerindian. Originating in the Noble Savage, the myth of the Vanishing Indian presents the Native as extinct or nearing extinction; images are often characterized by nostalgia and guilt. The inevitability of the disappearance of the Amerindian is a logic that informs representations of the Native in Chateaubriand’s writing and in French Western novels.
In the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, French and Quebecois authors engage in the myth of Going Native. Following the metaphorical disappearance of the Amerindian according to the Vanishing Indian framework, French and French-Canadian characters undertake journeys of self-actualization that are catalyzed by contact with the (myths of the) Native. Through mythologized knowledge of the Native, non-Native characters are transformed into truer versions of themselves. Representations of androgynous and homosexual Native sexualities are significant elements in many narratives of Going Native, which I interpret through a queer critique.
In addition to literary forays, my dissertation focuses on how myths of the Native are presented in French texts that claim to produce scientific truth. In the eighteenth century, the field of natural history uses images of the Native that echo the logic of the Ignoble Savage myth. In the nineteenth century, one of the foundational texts of the discipline of sociology utilizes images of Amerindian gender ambiguity to formulate a distinction between primitive and modern peoples. In my conclusion, I examine how the mythologies traced throughout the study influence the father of structural anthropology in his text Tristes tropiques.

Full textAbstract:
In nationalism studies, there has been insignificant analysis of the politics of imagining nations. This thesis addresses this lacuna in an examination of the form and design of imagined nations in Scotland and Quebec. I argue that the Scottish National Party and the Parti Quebecois have, since their advent in the 1960s, created a political-civic image of the nation that breaks with previous cultural conceptions. However, cultural images of the nation, propagated by centralist institutions, remain entrenched in contemporary Scotland and Quebec. The juxtaposition of centralist cultural images and nationalist political images of the nation have led to a dualistic, or what I have termed a 'Jekyll and Hyde', national consciousness in both countries. This exercise indicates that images of the nation are subject to multitudinous interpretations and (re)construction by various actors in the competitive state-nation political arena.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to examine reproductive technologies and infertility from the perspective of Orthodox Jewish ethics, law and culture. Treating infertility is a complex process; individuals vary in their course of treatment, taking into account their medical situation, religious beliefs, prevailing cultural norms, reproductive policy in their jurisdiction, financial constraints, and their community context. For Orthodox and ultra-Orthodox Jews, this context includes a religious and cultural imperative to procreate, as well as religious law and social preference dictating the most preferred types of family. Judaism is a particularly pronatalist religion, and has a large body of halakhic text on reproductive technologies. Jewish people living in North America may also be influenced in their infertility experience by the policies and cultural norms of the society in which they live. This thesis examines the aspects of halakha (Jewish law), Quebec policy, Orthodox Jewish ethics, and ultra-Orthodox and Hasidic Jewish culture that are likely to influence the experience of infertility for Hasidic Jewish women in Quebec. Orthodox Judaism has a strong legacy of opinion defining the nature of family and the importance of genetics. This paper examines the aspects of Judaism and Hasidic culture that might strongly influence this experience, and also examines aspects of Quebec's history and current policy that may also influence this experience, albeit from a different angle.L'objectif de cette thèse est d'examiner les technologies de reproduction et de traitement de l'infertilité au point de vue de l'éthique, du droit et de la culture juive orthodoxe. Le traitement de l'infertilité est un processus complexe; les individus changent en cours de traitement. On doit tenir compte de leur dossier médical, de leur croyance religieuse, des normes culturelles en vigueur, de la politique de la reproduction dans leur juridiction, des contraintes financières et du contexte de leur communauté. Pour les juifs orthodoxes et ultraorthodoxes, ce contexte comprend un impératif religieux et culturel de procréer. Aussi, la loi religieuse et la préférence sociale dictent les types de familles les plus privilégiées. Le judaïsme est une religion prônant la natalité, et qui possède un grand corps de texte halakhique sur les technologies de reproduction. Les Juifs vivant en Amérique du Nord peuvent également être influencés dans leur expérience de l'infertilité par les politiques et les normes culturelles de la société dans laquelle ils vivent. Cette thèse examine les aspects de la Halakha (loi juive), la politique du Québec, l'éthique juive orthodoxe, et les cultures juives ultraorthodoxes et hassidiques qui sont susceptibles d'avoir une influence sur l'expérience de l'infertilité pour les femmes juives hassidiques au Québec. Le judaïsme orthodoxe possède un fort héritage quant à l'opinion qui définit la nature de la famille et l'importance de la génétique. Ce document examine les aspects du judaïsme hassidique et la culture qui pourraient influencer fortement cette expérience, et étudie également les aspects de l'histoire du Québec et de la politique actuelle qui peuvent aussi influer sur cette expérience, mais à partir d'un angle différent.
