Patlak, David Julian. "Evaluation of wet-vacuum technique versus traditional methods for collection of biological crime scene samples." Thesis, Boston University, 2013. https://hdl.handle.net/2144/21234.
Full textGenerally, biological samples are collected from crime scenes using swabbing, cutting, or taping techniques. However, these methods are limited in their abilities to recover diluted, masked, or otherwise invisible stains. Additionally, their targeted nature allows only a small portion of a larger stain to be collected at one time. In this study, a sterile wet-vacuum collection system was evaluated in its ability to collect small volume bloodstains from various substrates. Vacuuming was compared to swabbing and taping methods currently used in forensic analysis. Samples were collected from porous and nonporous surfaces; the efficacy of each collection method was evaluated with a colorimetric presumptive blood test. To evaluate each collection method, dilutions containing from 0.25 nl to 25 μl human blood were spotted on common substrate materials, allowed to dry, and recovered. For comparison to the novel method, single-swabbing and tape-lifting techniques were performed in this study to collect samples for presumptive testing. During wet vacuum collection, stains were saturated with sterile buffer and suction was applied to the surrounding area, accumulating buffer in a collection bottle. Collected buffer was then filtered through membranes to capture cellular material, which were then presumptively tested for the presence of blood. Testing was performed with Kastle-Meyer (phenolphthalein) reagents. Each sample was photographed under consistent conditions in order to determine signal intensity. It was shown that the wet-vacuuming technique is able to recover sufficient amounts of blood for presumptive testing from multiple substrates. This method was able to detect similar dilutions of blood as traditional techniques in samples collected from porous surfaces, but was less effective on a nonporous substrate. Presumptive test image analysis shows increased relative intensity in collections from textiles, such as denim, when using the wet-vacuum system. Considering the results of a contemporaneous DNA quantification study, it was shown that in instances where a very weak presumptive result is found, the wet-vacuum technique may be better able to collect genetic material for downstream processing than the traditional methods evaluated. This study demonstrates the potential of wet-vacuuming as a suitable alternative technique to collect adhered cellular material from substrates in forensic investigations.

Full textThis thesis is meant to study a work often considered as minor in relation to the most famous, shocking novels by sade. Choosing les crimes de l'amour comes from the desire to fight against that apriorism, and to show that the collection of the tragic short stories published in 1800 remarkably highlights sade's imagination and his extraordinary art of writing, the originality of which is brought out behind the compromise with the moral and aesthetic conventions. First, i shall study the relationships between les crimes de l'amour and the convention of tragic short stories and that of literary critics defending the fictional art. Thus, "l'idee sur les romans", the preface to les crimes de l'amour, follows that literary tradition giving a definition and the historical background of a genre often questioned by the moral authorities. It also gives a new portrayal of the novelist. I shall also study the links with the world of the baroque short stories, with the legacy of historical short stories and i shall see how sade manages to transfigure the evildoer, an omnipresent character in his precursors' fiction. Second, basing myself on the comparison of the 1787-1788 manuscript with the 1800 edition, i shall cast light on the text's genesis and underline the unflagging effort to improve his style associated with the need to compromise with the reader : by working cleverly without ever renouncing his beliefs, sade beautifully enhances the virtue of suffering. Third, i shall show that this collection of short stories is firmly attached to the esoteric writing. I shall see how the narrative is handled, for instance the role of the embedded narrative, and i shall deal with women's destiny and the libertine character. Literary history, genetic criticism and thematic approach shall be dealt with to have a better understanding of sade

Full textThis PhD dissertation is the first attempt to empirically examine three different aspects related to the shadow banking system. We generally aim at providing a better understanding of the shadow banking topic.Chapter 1 focuses on the correlation between the shadow banking system and other regular financial institutions mainly banks, insurance companies, and pension funds. The results suggest that shadow banking system is acting as a complement and not a substitute to other regular financial systems.Chapter 2 examines the determinants of shadow banking loans. This study investigates how regulations and other factors impact the role of the shadow banking system in supplying credit. This chapter’s results indicate that shadow banking system is not an answer to high and severe regulations.Chapter 3 shows that there is a positive impact of the increased share of shadow banking system on banking stability and profitability. However, these results are inversed during crisis periods. These results indicate that shadow banking system makes good times better and bad time worse

Thesis, Stockholm University, Department of Baltic Languages, Finnish and German, 2010. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:su:diva-40853.
Full textIn my study I analyse Reijo Mäki’s four books Pimeyden tango (1997), Pahan suudelma (1998), Keltainen leski (1999) and Black Jack (2003). I’m interested whether Mäki as a writer belongs to traditional Finnish prose which started from Aleksis Kivi than genre of crime literature.
After Kai Laitinen humour, nature and democracy are typical to Finnish literature tradition. Mäki’s milieu descriptions are closer to the Finnish literary tradition. Through nature the characters mirror their emotions, feelings and events. The environment is not only seen, but it is also smelled, touched and heard. Through the marks of the nature characters give right as well as misleading clues. It is particularly characteristic to the Finnish literary tradition to describe division of life, social status and the freedom and lack of it through weather, which is not typical to the crime literature. Also Mäki’s characters are democratic and everyday and strongly individualistic and anti-social despite of person’s social standing. Laitinen’s point of view is that in the Finnish literary tradition equality is only between men. In Mäki’s fiction women characters are narrow and they are only seen how they look.
Mäki represents the modern criminal literature in which are characteristics of puzzle, hard-boiled and police novels. Unlike hardboiled detective stories his books are full of verbal descriptions. In conclusion Mäki’s books clearly represent the Finnish literary tradition.
Widmaier, Carole. "Tradition et modernité chez Léo Strauss et Hannah Arendt." Paris, EPHE, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008EPHE5014.
Full textThroughout XXth century, totalitarianism and liberal democraties’powerlessness lead many thinkers to diagnose a crisis: crisis in politic and crisis in rationality. The major two of them are Leo Strauss and Hannah Arendt, who endeavour to analyse the project of modernity. Our purpose is to compare their respective approach to the problem, considering: how the fact of crisis is stated, how they determine the relationship between modernity and tradition, and how each of them refers to the history of thought. In spite of their similar approach to the problem, those philosophers express different designs. Strauss defines modern crisis as a crisis of rationality; therefore he advocates a return to classical philosophy and to a philosophical way of life which should hold the gap between reason and political facts. On the other side, Arendt thinks this is a political crisis; we must urgently analyse it from the point view of the world, by working out a process of understanding which should radically differ from the usual quest of philosophical truth. Whereas Strauss, versus the project of modernity, proposes to bring back into favour the classical idea of human nature, with its highest goals, Arendt proves that we’d better give up the idea of human nature, so as to think properly the human condition – that is to say the forms of living in connexion with their basic conditions. Thus, this work tackles with the problem of establishing which one of those two political thoughts would be the best to help us analyse our modern situation and find out a solution to crisis
Souquet, Sophie. "Le bardisme de Taliesin a Taldir : crise du chant et métamorphose du texte." Rennes 2, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005REN20010.
Full textAs a term designating the poetic art and the doctrine of bards, bardism refers to medieval as well as contemporary Celtic literatures. The specificity of the figure of the bard and of bardic poetics will be highlighted by means of a historical panomara in the present study, which bears on the transition between the Celtic tradition and a literary tradition in France and in the British Isles on the one hand, and on the transition between an oral and a written tradition at a time of social, political crises, and therefore wavering identities on the other hand. The intertextual links connecting bardic texts to each other constitute very much a fundamental identity principle. From the songs and poems of Welsh bards in the early Middle Ages to the modern era communal mystifications (such as Macpherson’s), poems and traditional material have constantly interacted throughout the entire history of bardism. Bardic texts follow the ever-changing and permeable patterns of the art of singing. This very poetics pervades the bardic literary school created in Brittany in the year 1900 – a school which takes oral tradition and clichés to be its main composition principles

Full textInterdisciplinary war trauma research suggests wars involving ethnic cleansing have debilitating and serious impacts on the physical and mental health of survivors. There has been a lack of focus on female-specific victimization, although female-driven cultural practices are altered as a result of traumatization. The South Slavic female survivors of the Balkan War partake in extensive cultural practices that have been shaped by their experiences of trauma. The current study used a qualitative approach to understand how women's traumatic experiences are manifested in and ameliorated by their oral memory traditions, or the cultural practice of sharing transgenerational information. Specifically, data from psychosomatic clinical sessions spanning a ten-year period were analyzed to identify how the somatic practice of the Kolo, or the round dance or sharing of information in a circle, has provided the women an outlet for their cultural expression and healing. Results are discussed in terms of psychosomatic themes that help us understand the effects of trauma.

Full textThis dissertation aims at: (i) presenting a facsimile and semidiplomatic edition of a criminal proceeding which took place in the city of Campinas in the 19th century; and (ii) analyzing the macrostructure of the manuscript document. The reading and the editing of the document were based on the assumption of Philology and Historical Linguistics. The analysis of the macrostructure was based on the Discoursive Traditions Model proposed by Koch & Osterreicher (1990) and Kabatek (2006). Furthermore, we considered the linguisticdiscoursive aspects suggested by Simões e Kewitz (2006, 2009). Overall, there are 37 folios recto and verso that concern the crime of witchcraft and homicide occurred in 1871, which represent a rich source of historical, socioeconomic and, primarily, linguistic data. This research privided important information about some of the discoursive traditions that helps reconstruct Brazilian Portuguese registered in texts of legal environment

Full textThis thesis contributes to the redefinition of the concept of tradition in literature through a comparative study of three important poets working at the turn of the century. Strictly reserved to the religious sphere during the classical period, the notion of tradition was applied to literature around the middle of the 19th century. This coincided, on the one hand, with the birth of the concept of modernity, but more importantly, with the realization of the conventional nature of language: language was an inherited system. In this context, Hofmannsthal, Valéry and Rilke are united by their radical questioning of the capacity of language to express adequately the singularity of the self and the diversity of the world. Their work represents three ways of overcoming the crisis of confidence arising from the idea of language as an inherited concept, and the result is a threefold redefinition of firstly, the position of the subject in the creative act, secondly, the position of the artist in society, and thirdly, the position of the poetic word in relation to the world. Hofmannsthal, who described himself as an inheritor, rejected the primacy of aesthetic values, which in his youth threatened the world order and coherence of the self, putting in its place the ethical aspect of the creative act. Hofmannsthal's "passive" narcissism can be compared to Valéry's "active" narcissism; Valéry gave up poetry in order to devote himself to an in-depth examination of the issue of inheritance in his cahiers. But he returned to it in La Jeune Parque. Where he developed a concept of "the art of verse" freed from the illusions and constraints of tradition. Rilke, who from the beginning of his career felt he was lacking in literary culture, worked to create his own tradition and to consolidate a fragile self, and ended up by resolving the crisis at the end of the Duino elegies by restoring the right of the poet to name the world, and indeed, the initiatory role of poetry
Guidée, Raphaëlle. "Mémoires de l'oubli : revenance et crise de la tradition dans les oeuvres de William Faulkner, Joseph Roth, Claude Simon, Georges Perec et W.G. Sebald." Poitiers, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008POIT5018.
Full textArising in the wake of the major historical disasters of the XXth century, the works of William Faulkner, Joseph Roth, Claude Simon, Georges Perec and W. G. Sebald question the paradoxical inheritance of a vanishing tradition. When the ghosts of history return to haunt the present, this is because their own universe has disappeared, and with it the traditional ways of transmission which ensured the survival of the ancestral world, as well as its representation. Rather than demonstrating the living presence of the past, this haunting presence thus seems to escort the certainty of an unredeemable death, a loss which no literary or artistic monument could make up for. Whereas Romantic representations of the dead associated writing with a form of grave-digging, capable both of resurrecting the dead and making up for their loss, the memory of the departed, in these narratives, is and remains fundamentally melancholic, insofar as it constantly marks the limits of literary resurrection and the fragility of narrative attempts in themselves threatened by the destructive power of Time. However, this departure from the model of the scriptural grave by no means stifles the call for justice accompanying such spectral apparitions. By answering the call of that which is irretrievably lost, these works bear the imprint of a process of memory and oblivion which attempts to recall the memory of the departed, but most of all to keep a trace of their loss. The double ethical pursuit of works such as these, built on the full recognition of the reality of unredeemable death, is to record what can possibly be recorded, and to mark the empty place of that which is beyond recall

We wondered how United States could go back in Indonesian political and security games through a common cause, maritime security.. After considering indonesian maritime history and the rise of threats to maritime domain, we concluded that the securitisation of maritime realm appears as a security leitmotiv for both Washington and Jakarta. Facing with the vagaries of regional cooperation and with difficulties related to the archipelagic geography of the country and the lack of capacity, securising indonesian maritime domain requires the involvement of an external actor. By succeeding in persuading their counterparts in Jakarta of the necessity of securing the maritime domain, men and women of the U.S. Department of Defense, State Department and other agencies have allowed Washington to be back into Indonesia’s security game through an all-out cooperation

O presente trabalho se propõe a pensar a crise das referências como um pressuposto por onde se localiza uma problemática contemporânea de fundamentação ética. Tendo por base a reflexão sobre o niilismo, o que se pretende é entender como se deu o processo de enfraquecimento da tradição de pensamento moral na visão ocidental, diagnosticada pelo pensador Friedrich Nietzsche, como desvalorização dos valores supremos. Este trabalho contemplará diretamente o pensamento do filósofo alemão; contudo, manter-se-á numa leitura construída sob a ótica do filosofo jesuíta francês Paul Valadier, cujas obras nos convidam a compreender o problema do niilismo, tendo como perspectiva central uma avaliação que se desdobra em uma análise a respeito da crise valores e suas consequências para o mundo contemporâneo. Para o autor francês, a partir dos avanços da racionalidade científica com o advento da era moderna, as tradições foram postas em causa, interrogadas ou mesmo recusadas. Com isso, instala-se a impossibilidade de respostas às questões morais que se apresentam, uma vez que o ser humano passa a ser o responsável por definir seu agir e seu pensar no mundo. O resultado disso é o surgimento do relativismo moral que se instala como consequência do processo de anarquia dos valores, na condição de ausência do princípio de ordenação e hierarquização destes, originários da concepção de sentido e de mundo ordenado, antes provenientes das tradições. Por isso, faz-se perceber a importância de Nietzsche. Para Valadier, não há dúvida de que o filósofo alemão contribuiu mais do que muitos para este abalo moral. Daí que o diagnóstico nietzschiano seja tomado neste trabalho considerando-se sua relevância por vários aspectos: tanto no que concerne à crítica dos valores, à moral cristã, quando pela importância dada ao método genealógico pelo qual se torna possível compreender os fatores que levaram a tradição perder sua força de atuação, quando é revelado o seu sentido niilista escondido sob os valores considerados mais supremos.
This paper proposes to think the crisis of references as an assumption by where is a contemporary issue of ethical reasoning. Based on the reflection on nihilism, the aim is to understand how was the weakening of the moral tradition of thought in Western view, previously diagnosed from the thinker Friedrich Nietzsche, as devaluation of the highest values. This work directly contemplate the thought of German philosopher; however, will remain in a reading built from the perspective of the French Jesuit philosopher Paul Valadier, whose works invite us to understand the nihilism of the problem, with the central perspective an assessment that unfolds in an analysis about the crisis and its values consequences for the contemporary world. The French author, from the advances of scientific rationality with the advent of the modern era, the traditions have been challenged, questioned, or even rejected. With this, install the impossibility of answers to moral questions that arise, since the human being becomes responsible for defining their actions and their thinking in the world. The result is the emergence of moral relativism that develops as a consequence of the process of anarchy of values, provided that the absence of the ordering principle and ranking of these originating in design sense, orderly world, but from the traditions. In this sense, is made to realize the importance of Nietzsche. To Valadier, there is no doubt that the German philosopher contributed more than many for this moral shock. Hence Nietzsche's diagnosis is taken in this work considering their relevance for various aspects: both as regards the criticism of values, Christian morality, when the importance given to genealogical method by which it becomes possible to understand the factors that led to tradition lose its force of action, when it is revealed its nihilistic sense hidden under the values considered most supreme.
Yssouf, Rozette. "Les jeunes Mahorais : entre doute et peur, le choix de la sublimation contre l'effondrement psychique." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020STRAG008.
Full textThis research in clinical psychology focuses on the young people of Mayotte with the aim of getting to know them better, to better understand their psychological functioning in relation to their socio-cultural context. It is the result of a clinical observation made in Mayotte, first as a clinical psychologist and then as a doctoral student in psychology at youth associations and at the Mamoudzou hospital. Mayotte is the French island of the Comoros archipelago, which became the 101st French department in 2011 under the presidency of Nicolas Sarkozy. It is one of those French overseas territories where the confrontation between tradition and modernity as well as the issues of loss of reference points and identity crisis are still topical. In this thesis, we looked at the mental health of the youth of Mahoras and tried to understand the organization of the island's societal functioning as well as the factors that promote sublimation among young people. Indeed, these young people are many to question themselves in a Mahoran society where self-unveiling remains taboo and emotions, more precisely psychic difficulties are stifled. It is not customary to talk about what is wrong, what hurts, about the violence that one undergoes, nor about its psychological impact. These evils passed under silence are sometimes and often trivialized and create unimaginable psychic sufferings. In this particular context, the question has been raised as to how young Mahorais organise themselves to overcome their psychological difficulties and suffering. And this has led us to raise several questions. What defence mechanisms do they use to deal with their unbearable reality ? What strategies do they use to adapt to their reality? What means do they deploy to avoid psychological collapse ? In an attempt to answer all these questions, we conducted surveys among young people aged 18 to 35 years, interviewed in clinical interviews, to whom we submitted online questionnaires, psychological evaluation scales and a personality test (MMPI-2-RF) in order to gather as much information as possible. A large number of young Mahorais participated in our surveys, both students and young graduates and employees. We selected ten young men and women to illustrate our case studies.The results of this doctoral research tell us a lot about how Mahoran society functions today and especially about the mental health of its young people. We learn, for example, that matrilineality is a specific feature of Mayotte and the role played by women, especially mothers, in the education of their children is very important in the process of their psychological development. Indeed, the mother contributes to the emotional and psychological stability of the young people met and who participated in this research. This observation inevitably raises the question of the place and role of the father in the lives of young Mahorais. It also questions the effects of this absence of the paternal figure and its repercussions on the construction of identity of young Mahorais.Torn between tradition and modernity, suffering from a loss of identity and cultural references, some young Mahorais still manage to sublimate themselves, while others collapse and develop psychiatric disorders which can, in extreme cases, lead to the act of acting. This thesis proposes to reflect on and analyse the processes that lead to such different paths
Matignon, Emilie. "La justice en transition. Le cas du Burundi." Thesis, Pau, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PAUU2015.
Full textAs an answer to cycles of mass violence in Burundi, a transitional justice process has been opened. The Burundian case study presents some particularities among this kind of process. Whereas the Arusha peace and reconciliation agreement for Burundi in 2000 decided setting up two transitional justice instruments, a special court and a Truth Reconciliation Commission, the transitional justice process has not begun yet. Only National Consultations were organized in 2009. The negotiations and the mediation occurred during the ongoing war. There were no winners and no losers but just armed men who decided to discuss in order to conquer the power and then to keep it. That may explain why negotiations were so longer and staggered. A sort of consociativisme system was set up in Burundi as the model organization of power-sharing. Inside the politic game of power-sharing the peace-justice dilemma appears through instrumentalization of retributive justice which is assimilated to justice and the truth and pardon which claim referring to peace. Another particularity is found regarding numerous judicial and legal reforms relatively to children rights, lands conflict, electoral law or Criminal Code. On the eve of the implementation of the Truth Reconciliation Commission, the global nature of the transitional justice process is obvious. The Burundian context appears as an illustration of the extensive meaning of transitional justice which represents a justice in transition. The global nature of the matter is emerging through its temporal and disciplinary versatility. On one hand, transitional justice seems to be past justice, currently justice and future justice at the same time and on the other hand it may take several forms out of the official one, initially predicted. In a legalist and normative view, global nature of justice in transition might cause deadlock regarding the case of Burundi. In a systemic and multidisciplinary perspective, global nature of justice in transition reveals change capacities according to the case of Burundi. What really matter in such transitional justice process is relieving victims and perpetrators’sufferings which are undeniably linked and bringing answers to each protagonist of the crime as to the society with the permanent and ambitious aim of reconciliation

The non-traditional security, under the new trend of globalization, has emerged an important subject. With different concerns, it focuses the extension and rising influences of the transnational crimes. The subject itself has attracted international concerns. Drug crime is taken seriously all over the world, and most countries spend time and money on preventing and defeating it. Drug crime, nevertheless, in terms of its ever-changing modes, strategies, purposes and deepening “transnational” phenomena, is re-emerging as the old wine in a new bottle. The present thesis, through a study of the influences of the transnational drug crime on the national security, scrutinizes how Taiwan, using a non-traditional security perspective, prevents the strategies employed by the transnational drug crime.

After Cold War, situations of breaking out large-scale wars are so slim, thereupon, traditional threat to national security is sharply diminishing. However, there do exist some other new kind of threats, for instance, drug trafficking, terrorism as well as transnational crime are considered to be the most important parts of security issues by some governments. If we take non-traditional threat inappropriately, it would endanger traditional threat to national security. Therefore, most of the nations face simutaniously traditional and non-tradituional threats to security. On the coming era of globalization, the more interdependent we are, the more risk society we will become. In the same dependent environment, non-traditional threat to security has the butterfly effect with the crossing border, region and the world. Non-traditional threat to security, like transnational crime, especially organized crime, drug trafficking, money laundering, were seriously concerned by most of the nations. The fraud and stowaway between both sides of Taiwan Strait are serious; it affected reputation of the governments. Taiwan can’t handle transnational crime alone; we must cooperate with other nations to tackle traditional and non-traditional threats to security.

Full textQuebec society, like all societies, has its own legendary crimes and criminals. Yet if these famous faits divers have been recently made into historiographical re-enactments, the cultural and historic manner in which they are transformed from local news reports into national myths – what we call mecanisms of “ légendarisation ” –, is practically unknown. It is this mutation that this thesis examines : drawing from four famous crimes of the 18th and 19th centuries (the Seigneur of Kamouraska’s murder [1839] as well as the crimes committed by “ La Corriveau ” [1763], by the “ docteur l’Indienne ” [1829] and by the “ brigands du Cap-Rouge ” [1834-1835]), our analysis recollects their two-hundred-year-long genealogy into collective memory. Through this collective memory, a complex discourse system arises for each crime : by intertwining newspaper reports and stories from oral and written traditions, social imagination manufactures great antagonist figures, incarnations of evil and avatars of the devil from ordinary criminal acts. This vast antagonizing process is in fact dependent on a whole epoch – the 19th century – where, in the western world, “ crime ” was suddenly placed at the heart of all social and political preoccupations. This era seemingly created a literary craze for crime, as well as a whole arsenal of specialized notions, ideas and technologies designed to understand, mesure and eliminate criminality. During the Lower Canada period, the phenomenon spreads across this side of the Atlantic. In the wake of this movement, the great criminals who impacted the collective mind are made to become especially rallying imaginary enemies : figures of a radical otherness, they become the foil against which Quebec society, from the 19th century onwards, instituted itself.

Full textOs media tradicionais foram os primeiros meios de informação que o mundo conheceu. Mas com o desenvolvimento das novas tecnologias e o seu enraizamento no quotidiano do cidadão-comum, os antigos media – imprensa escrita, rádio e televisão – foram obrigados a migrar para o ciberespaço. Como é o caso do jornal onde realizei o estágio, o PÚBLICO. Este fenómeno teve dois lados: um negativo e outro positivo. Nomeadamente, no caso da imprensa escrita foram mais as perdas do que os ganhos. Se por um lado o facto de a informação estar na Internet - acessível a todos a qualquer momento e lugar, sem custos - era uma mais-valia, por outro, fez com que o suporte físico perdesse seguidores, correndo o risco de desaparecer. Para não falar que a Web 2.0 permitiu a liberalização da publicação, através da qual o cidadão-comum passou de apenas leitor a também editor. E, como consequência, começaram a surgir muitos espaços informativos não regulados por quaisquer códigos éticos. Destes espaços, os blogues são, talvez, os meios de divulgação de informação que mais competiram com os media e geraram controvérsia. Por isso, na segunda parte deste relatório, figura um estudo de caso pioneiro sobre estes, intitulado: O papel dos blogues nacionais como meios de divulgação do cinema. O objectivo do estudo será perceber qual a relação entre estes espaços alternativos especializados e os respectivos meios de comunicação social, tendo em conta o período actual de crise dos media tradicionais.
The traditional media were the first means of information the world has known. But with the development of new technologies and their centrality in the everyday life of the common citizen, the old media — print, radio and television — were forced to migrate to the cyberspace. That is the case regarding PÚBLICO, the newspaper where I did my internship. This phenomenon had two sides: a positive and negative one. More specifically, concerning the written press, there were more setbacks than advantages. If on one hand information on the Internet is accessible to everyone, at anytime, anywhere, and without any costs, and was therefore considered an asset, on the other hand it caused the loss of followers of the physical media, and the risk of its extinction. Not to mention that Web 2.0 has enabled the liberalization of publication, through which the common citizen has become not only a reader, but also an editor. As a result, many informative spaces began to appear, spaces which are not regulated by any ethical codes. Of all these, the blogs are, perhaps, the means used to disseminate information which compete the most with the media, generating controversy. Therefore, the second part of this report figures a case study on the groundbreaking case of these, entitled: The role of national blogs as a means to publicize cinema. The purpose of this study is to understand the relation between these specialized alternative spaces and the corresponding means of social communication, given the current period of crisis in traditional media.

Full textMarket liberalisation and standardisation have rendered national economies unstable. The paradigmatic changes caused by the situation have remodeled the definition and role of political economy. They have also affected state institutions, may it be the welfare state and the labour market. This research paper brings forward interpretation and analyses differences according to different traditions of economic thought. Germany’s case becomes interesting since it has a specific tradition of economic thought with its more social perspectives and, according to the varieties of capitalism theory, a very distinct capitalist model compared to the usually more preferred Anglo-Saxon model. The German social economist Wolfgang Streeck arguments that capitalism is slowly separating itself from its democratic aspect whereas other researchers come to other conclusions. In this context of liberalisation and standardisation, should there not be a standardisation of analyses and economic school of thoughts, themselves defined by their political and social context? Is it possible to conclude that Streeck’s conclusions are defined by traditional German economic thought? The research paper links two approaches: the economic approach (how to produce more) and the political one (how to distribute). The discipline of political economy takes the social aspect of economy into consideration. The methodology consists of sketching a portrait of Streeck’s economic thought and situating him historically, nationally and internationally, in order to demonstrate that, even with globalisation, national economies and national economic thought are still highly relevant.

Full textThis thesis analyses confession in Western legal traditions through a historical approach starting in antiquity. Through the study of English, French and Canadian law, it shows how the suspect’s statements have been apprehend by the accusatorial and inquisitorial systems of criminal justice, revealing that confession has always constituted and still constitutes to this day the cornerstone of truth and justice in criminal procedure. It also explains how confession, influenced and transformed by religion, has become an independent means of proof in both systems as a way to both identify and understand the guilty.

Full textThis study is an exploration of transitional justice mechanisms available to post conflict communities. It is a context sensitive and sustained interrogation of the effectiveness of endogenous transitional justice mechanisms in post-colonial Zimbabwe. The study utilised Ruti Teitel’s (1997: 2009-2080) realist/idealist theory as its theoretical framework. Using the case of Africa in general and Zimbabwe in particular, it analyses the application of imported idealist transitional justice mechanisms, mainly International Criminal Court (ICC) trials. It also debates the efficacy of realist transitional justice mechanisms, mainly the South African model of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC).The study explores the application of what it terms broad realist transitional justice mechanisms used mostly in rural areas of Zimbabwe to achieve peace building and reconciliation. These modes of everyday healing and reconciliation include the traditional institutions of ngozi (avenging spirit), botso (self-shaming), chenura (cleansing ceremonies), nhimbe (community working groups) and nyaradzo (memorials). The key finding of this exploration is that local realist transitional justice mechanisms are more efficacious in fostering peace building and reconciliation than imported idealist mechanisms such as the ICC trials and imported realist mechanisms such as the TRC. More value can be realised when imported realist mechanisms and local realist transitional justice mechanisms complement each other. The study contributes to the literature on transitional justice in general and bottom-up, victim-centred reconciliation in particular. It offers a different approach to the study of transitional justice in post conflict Zimbabwe by recasting the debate away from the liberal peace paradigm which critiques state centric top-down approaches such as trials, clemencies, amnesties and institutional reform. The study considers the agency of ‘ordinary’ people in resolving the after effects of politically motivated harm. It also lays the foundation for further research into other traditional transitional justice mechanisms used for peace building and reconciliation elsewhere in Africa

Full textIndigenous peoples in Canada and around the world are less healthy than their non-Indigenous counterparts. Traditional medicine, especially for Indigenous populations, offers an interesting avenue for improving their health and it can be implemented in public health programs. Through the notion of culture enshrined in traditional medicine, the latter can provide culturally appropriate care. Although many advantages are derived from such mixed care models, this combination has significant challenges. To date, it seems that health organizations have difficulty to properly engage these two-health approaches. The consideration of Indigenous knowledge and healing practices has begun, but it remains fragmented with discontinuous health services offered to the population. The general objective of this research is to understand and analyze the dynamics of interaction going among actors who involved in the implementation of a mixed care model of delivery of services that combines traditional and allopathic medicines. This multiple case qualitative research is conducted at two Indigenous communities in Quebec, Ilnu and Cree nations, with various characteristics. The data comes from individual interviews and knowledge transfer workshops with elders and healers, patients, health professionals and health administrators, as well as written documents and participant observations. The conceptual framework builds on the strategic analysis of Crozier and Friedberg (1977) and Abbott’s system of professions (1988). This research highlights the multiple dimensions that have an impact on a mixed care offer. These can, among other things, be related to culture such as the modes of transmission of knowledge, and to organizational, administrative, regulatory and even geographic contexts. In addition, understanding the challenges and strategies of the actors makes it possible to better understand both worlds. Our results show that, in the two cases under study, the combination of the two medicines is coordinated by the patient (patient coordinator model). But in one of the cases, the patient is more supported in his care trajectory. A better understanding of the dynamics of interaction between stakeholders makes it possible to have an impact on the delivery of mixed care improving the health of Indigenous people. This study has the potential to impact on the delivery of combined health care services, thereby improving prevention and health promotion for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. It supports the development of an alternative model of care, putting forward Indigenous traditional medicine. It encourages the reflection on the different factors involved in combining medicines.
