Résumé :

Thesis advisor: Kathleen Bailey
Clans are often viewed anachronistically in a world characterized by globalization. Yet, recent research highlights that clans not only determine how societies function, but play a central political role in many parts of the Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia. My analysis focuses on exploring clan alliances and their affect on the international system through the case of Uzbekistan. Clans and Democracy: A Mismatch? explores the presence of clans in Uzbekistan, deciphers to what extent they remain involved in politics, and determines how clan politics affects Uzbekistan's future prospects for democratization. I conclude that clans continue to influence the political decision-making of the state and ultimately hinder democracy formation. In closing, I explore predications for the future stability and democracy of Uzbekistan, as well as suggest policy prescriptions for the United States vis-à-vis Uzbekistan and other clan-based states

Résumé :

Highland history of the middle ages continues to be regarded generally as separate from the history of the Lowlands, as well as the political history of Scotland. To a large extent, the perception of two distinct societies within Scotland during this period has been swept aside, but few moves have been made to integrate fully the history of clanship into that of Scotland as a whole. This case study of the Mackintoshes and Clan Chattan seeks to examine clanship from a sociological as well as a historical perspective. Kinship was a fundamental characteristic of clan society, but these relationships were not limited to blood relatives. The creation of Active kinship through ties of customary obligation within a clan reinforced clan solidarity and cohesion, a vital factor for the geographically disparate Clan Chattan confederation. Within the locality, Active kinship was established by the contraction of more formal alliances which had social, political and economic objectives. The creation of these relationships enabled the clan to survive and expand. For central Highland clans like the Mackintoshes and Clan Chattan who lived in close geographic proximity to Lowland society, the extension of fictive kinship facilitated easy assimilation across the perceived divide in Scottish society. The realisation on the part of clan chiefs that cordial relations with the crown would be beneficial to the clan as a whole saw a movement throughout the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries towards closer integration with Lowland society. This examination of clanship places the history of the Highlands into a wider political and social context. While clanship was a unique phenomenon within Scotland, it should not be examined in isolation, but rather as an integral part of Scottish political life.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

At the core of this thesis is a puzzle concerning processes of political and institutional change in Mindanao since the peace agreement in 1996: why did politico-military actors who enjoyed widespread legitimacy during decades of conflict fail to maintain legitimacy and sustain their political authority after gaining access to sub-national state power? The establishment of separatist insurgents in the "autonomous" government created in Muslim Mindanao failed to realise the promise of lasting peace or developmental progress. The problem in understanding what happened in Mindanao can be traced to prevailing notions of political legitimacy that are often bereft of political economy foundations. The thesis argues that explanations, which understand legitimacy purely in terms of democratic institutions, are inadequate because they ignore the local institutional foundations from which legitimacy evolves. Drawing upon 18 months of fieldwork in Mindanao, and using a combination of life histories, case studies, archival material and descriptive statistics, the thesis examines the multiple institutions that shaped political legitimacy, revealing how clan institutions trumped other institutional sources of legitimacy. Insurgents who surrendered their anns in exchange for formal authority could not compete with powerful clans who delivered basic security; relied on increasing amounts of internal revenue allotments (IRA) under a regime of devolution; and, enabled the spread of a shadow economy that boosted their incomes and allowed local citizens to secure their livelihoods with little taxation by the state. Political authority was achieved through a bargaining process where rulers transacted mutually beneficial arrangements with elite groups and embedded these within a larger social contract with citizens that addressed their demand for security and the basic conditions for economic survival. The insights from the case of Mindanao may be relevant to wider debates about the sources of political legitimacy and to understanding similar experiences of autonomous self-government in Southeast Asia.

Résumé :

Pour mieux decrire l'histoire du peuplement de la region rwandaise, cette etude s'attache a resoudre l'epineuse enigme des clans rwandais. Il demeurait difficile, en effet, de comprendre comment les bahutu, les batutsi et les batwa, qui composent la population rwandaise, sont presentes comme appartenant a des "ethnies" differentes alors qu'ils se retrouvent tous inconditionnellement au sein des memes clans patrilineaires et sont dissemines sur un meme espace territorial. Apres une remise en question de l'historiographie rwandaise a ce sujet, le travail retrace, avec illustrations cartographiques a l'appui, les trajets migratoires des vingt-sept clans identifies, analyse les structures et les caracteristiques internes de ces clans grace aux differents lignages qui les composent, et montre comment les specialisations coutumieres auxquelles ils etaient traditionnellement rattaches, ne presentaient aucun exclusivisme particulier. Suite a une description spatiale exhaustive de ces clans qui depasse le rwanda proprement dit, il est ainsi formellement etabli que les identifications ethniques rwandaises, realites sociologiques mouvantes dans le temps comme dans l'espace, sont nees sur le sol rwandais meme, au sein des identifications claniques qui leur sont, de loin, historiquement anterieures ; ce qui explique pourquoi tous les rwandais aujourd'hui, hutu, tutsi et twa, au-dela de leurs clivages et de leurs conflits, partagent non seulement la meme culture, la meme langue, le meme territoire, mais aussi les memes entites parentales, en l'occurrence les clans et les lignages
For the best comprehension of the rwandese people's history, the objective of this study is to propose solution to the delicate and critical question of the rwandese clans. It has been always difficult, indeed, to comprehend how the bahutu, batutsi and batwa, which compose the rwandese population, are looked upon as different ethnic groups while they all belong to the same patrilinear clans and occupy same territory. After doubts on the reality of ancient rwandese historiography, this work retraces, with map illustrations in support, migratory influx of twenty-seven clans identified, analyses structures and internal caracteristics of these clans grace to different lineages they are composed of, and demonstrates how the traditional specialisations had not any particular exclusivity. Following a spatial exhaustive description of these clans which by-passed rwanda properly said, its here in after formally established that rwandese ethnical identifications, sociological moving realities with time and space, were born in rwandese territory itself, in the heart of clanic identifications which historically existed since a long time ago ; the thing which explains why all rwandese today, hutu, tutsi and twa, despite cleavages and conflicts, share not only the same culture, same language, same territory, but also the same paternal entities, likewise clans and lineages

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This paper analyzes the influence of Russian elite clans on Russian foreign policy-making. The goal of this paper is to discover the missing link that connects the changes in the International System to the formation of Russian foreign policy, more specifically the Russo-Georgian War, the occupation of Crimea, and the intervention in Syria. Therefore, the theory of neo-classical realism is applied to a systematic process analysis in order to trace the chain of causal relations in which the struggle of elite clans influences foreign policy-making. The combination of neo-realism and state capacity analysis complements the approach of neo-classical realism. This paper argues that the beliefs of the elite clans play an important role in shaping Russia’s foreign policy. The elite clans struggle to establish themselves and consolidate their power within the Russian government structures, which affected the shift from pragmatism and a multipolar approach to a transimperialist approach in Russian foreign policy.

Pollock, Natalie. « The incidence of cross-linked actin networks (CLANs)in the trabecular meshwork of the ageing eye ». Thesis, University of Liverpool, 2013. http://livrepository.liverpool.ac.uk/14235/.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Cross-linked Actin Networks (CLANs) were first identified in bovine trabecular meshwork (BTM) cells in response to steroid treatment. Since then, work within our group has identified CLANs in human TM (HTM) cells and human tissue ex vivo. An alteration in the cytoskeleton of TM cells has been associated with changes in outflow facility and is a promising therapeutic target in glaucoma research. CLANs which are believed to make TM cells more rigid, were found in increase numbers in tissue from glaucomatous donors, but were also present in tissue from non-glaucomatous donors. This would indicate that CLAN formation is not merely a steroid response but may be triggered by changes within the outflow system. The current work set out to identify CLAN inducing agents present within the normal outflow system and questioned whether age-related changes within the anterior chamber could influence CLAN number in a similar manner to glaucoma. Investigating the influence of aqueous humor (AH) and some of its constituent growth factors on CLAN formation in both BTM and HTM cells revealed that AH itself was capable of inducing CLANs and that the main CLAN inducing agent present was TGF-β2. Conversely mitogenic growth factors (FGF and HGF) did not increase CLAN incidence and implicated that CLAN incidence was linked to cell shape change linked and therefore to function. In vitro analysis of CLANs in reference to donor age revealed that TGF-β2 could induce a higher percentage of CLANs in HTM cells from older donors compared to HTM cells derived from younger donors. Ex vivo analysis run in parallel demonstrated that CLAN incidence increased with increasing donor age. In order to identify how age-related stress within the TM environment influenced CLAN incidence cells were treated with hydrogen peroxide. In BTM cells pre-treatment for 1 hour was sufficient to significantly increase CLAN incidence. In further experiments it would seem that CLANs are not associated with apoptotic cells nor with senescent cells. The findings of this study indicate that CLANs can form when no glaucomatous pathology is detected and that changes in the extracellular environment can influence their formation. This is especial evident in older tissue.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This study aims to investigate how the mechanisms of discrimination, othering, prejudice and enemy imaging work in conflict and non-conflict zones. The study further explored if the informants stories differ when in conflict zones. Enemy images theories were used as the theoretical base to investigate how the Somali majorities construct the enemy image of the Somali minorities (The Somali Bantusand the occupational groups). The aim and research questions are answered through a comparative case study that focuses on interviewing two Somali minority groups (occupational groups and the Bantu Somalis) who have the experience and lived both in Somalia (conflict context) and Somaliland (non conflict context). The result sof the study show that the majority of Somali clans use the delimitation between “them and us” a set of values that separate the two groups and characterize the minority groups as slaves and people of low social, economic, and political status. The majority groups perceive the minority groups as a threat to their assets and corevalues. This is what has been described as "our" and "their" essence, and the final aim, which is to legitimize violence, is clear in the data. While on the other hand, the majority groups referred to themselves as superior. The results indicated that there were no differences and only similarities in the narratives of the minority groups living in both conflict and non-conflict zones. This was an interesting discovery which was against the known and expected ideal. This thesis also suggests other ways of looking at the concept of enemy images suggesting further areas of research where deemed necessary.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This thesis stems from 12 months fieldwork among the Kel Antessar and other Tuareg clans in the District of Goundam (Region of Timbuktu) in north-west Mali. The Kel Antessar are an anomalous clan compared to other Tuareg. Their maraboutic status has catalysed their social and spatial mobility and given them a special mediatory role throughout past and present history. Although the research was initially focused on repatriated refugees following the end of the 1990s Tuareg rebellion, my data show that it is not analytically useful to isolate the refugee category from other forms of mobility in northern Mali. Kin-based networks and various forms of mobility structure social, economic and political relations which are of central importance in the allocation, distribution and use of human and natural resources in a society which is in a constant state of flux. The Kel Antessar’s elite has also played a particularly important role in brokering aid in the context of the decentralised administrative system in this region.

Résumé :

The eighteenth century witnessed the proliferation of voluntary associations throughout the British-Atlantic world. These voluntary associations consisted of groups of men with common interests, backgrounds, or beliefs that were willing to pool their resources in order to achieve a common goal. Enlightenment Scotland was home to large numbers of clubs ranging from small social clubs to large national institutions. The records of these societies suggest that most, if not all, of the men who formed them believed that defining and performing Scottish identity was important to preserving the social and cultural traditions of Scottishness in the absence of state institutions. These patriotic associations followed Scots across the Atlantic and provided the model for similar clubs in the American colonies. This thesis examines the construction and performance of Scottish identity by Scottish clubs in Scotland and America from c.1750-1832. It, in contrast to the existing historiography of Scottish identity, asserts that associations were vehicles through which Scottish identity was constructed, expressed, and performed on both sides of the Atlantic. It demonstrates that clubs provided Scots with the tools to manufacture identities that were malleable enough to adapt within a wide variety of political and cultural environments. This was particularly important in a period that witnessed major political disruption in the shape of the American and French Revolutions. By directly comparing Scottish societies in both Scotland and America, the thesis also reassesses and revises common attitudes about the relationship between Scottish identities at home and in the wider diaspora. Often seen as distinct entities, this thesis emphasises the similarities in the construction of Scottish identity, even in divergent national contexts. Drawing on a variety of sources ranging from rulebooks, minute books, and published transactions to memoirs, newspaper articles, letters, and even material goods, this thesis reveals that the Scottish identity constructed and performed by associations in America was no less ‘Scottish’ than that formulated in Scotland, indeed it paralleled and built upon the practices and attitudes developed in the home country. It rested on the same foundation, yet followed a different political trajectory as a result of the differing environment in which it was expressed and the different communities of Scots that expressed it. Indeed, the comparison between Scottish clubs in Scotland and America demonstrates that modern Scottish identity is the creation of a diasporic, transnational Scottish experience.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

La société irlandaise du haut moyen âge a été considérée comme tribale, archai͏̈que et immuable. Force est de reconnaître en effet qu'avant le VIIIe siècle, politique et parenté étaient encore intimement liées. Cependant l'organisation sociale connaissait déjà de profonds changements. L'ancien tuath, le petit royaume tribal seul reconnu par la tradition et les lois, n'était plus la structure politique dominante au Xe siècle. Une saga comme le Cogadh Gaedh re Gallaibh " la guerre des Irlandais contre les étrangers " ) montre que la structure clanique traditionnelle était une réalité du passé au XIe siècle et au XIIe siècle. A partir de cette époque, le roi provincial était devenu le véritable roi et son pouvoir était suffisamment grand pour s'imposer aux nombreux seigneurs de son propre territoire, même s'il avait à étendre son pouvoir par la force. Le but de cette thèse est de proposer une étude de cette société en mutation, évoluant entre société tribale et structure monarchique.

Résumé :

La mitochondrie fournit l'énergie nécessaire au fonctionnement cellulaire, grâce au mécanisme de phosphorylation oxydative. Cette fonction nécessite une expression coordonnée des génomes nucléaires et mitochondriaux assurée par la famille de coactivateurs transcriptionnels PGC-I (Peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor V Coactivator-l), sensibles aux signaux endogènes et/ou environnementaux. Une régulatioh plus fine de la phosphorylation oxydative par des miRNAs est maintenant soupçonnée. Afin de préciser ces différents modes de régulation dans des modèles cellulaires de carcinomes thyroïdiens, nous avons exploré la voie PRC-dépendante (PGC-related coactivator) et les miRNAs spécifiquement exprimés dans ces modèles présentant une richesse en mitochondries et des niveaux de PRC et de PGC-Ia différents. Ce travail a permis de mettre en évidence miR-218 comme marqueur clé de régulation de la fonction mitochondriale. Au-delà de la régulation de l'expression génique, une fourniture énergétique adéquate nécessite également une répartition optimale des mitochondries au sein de la cellule, grâce à d'étroites connexions entre le cytosquelette et la mitochondrie. Des peptides issus de la sous-unité légère des neurofilaments, dont le NFL-TBS. 40-63, sont capables d'entrer spécifiquement dans les cellules de glioblastomes humains et d'y déstabiliser le réseau microtubulaire, conduisant à la mort cellulaire par apoptose. Pour étudier I'impact de ce peptide sur le réseau de mitochondries et leurs fonctions, nous avons traité le modèle cellulaire de glioblastomes humains T98G, par différentes concentrations de NFL-TBS. 40-63. Ce travail révèle une perturbation du réseau de mitochondries et une diminution de la respiration mitochondriale dans les cellules exposées. L'ensemble de ces travaux doit permettre le développement de traitements ciblés de la fonction mitochondriale
Mitochondrion provides energy for cell metabolism through the mechanism of oxidative phosphorylation. This function requires a coordinated expression of nuclear and mitochondrial genomes provided by the family of transcriptional coactivators PGC -1 (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor V Coactivator -1), responding to endogenous and/or environmental signals. A fine regulation of the oxidative phosphorylation by miRNAs is now suspected. To specify these regulatory pathways in cellular models of human follicular thyroid carcinomas, we have explored the PRC-related (PGC- related coactivator) pathway and specific microRNAs, in models presenting various mitochondrial abundance and differences in PRC and PGC- la expression levels. We have highlighted the role of miR-218 as a key regulatory factor of mitochondrial functions. An adequate energy supply also requires close connections between cytoskeleton and mitochondria to ensure an optimal distribution of mitochondria within the cell. Peptides derived from the light neurofilament subunit, as NFL - TBS. 40 -63, are able to specifically enter into human glioblastoma cells and destabilize the microtubule network, leading to cell death by apoptosis. To study the impact of this peptide on mitochondrial network and oxidative phosphorylation, we have treated the T98G human glioblastoma cells by different concentrations of NFL- TBS. 40 -63. Our work showed disturbance in mitochondrial network and reduction in mitochondrial respiration rate in the treated cells. All these results should allow the development of therapy targeting the mitochondrial function

Résumé :

Le diabète est une pathologie dont l'incidence est en constante augmentation ces dix dernières années. Le traitement de base actuel repose sur l'insulinothérapie pour la régulation de la glycémie, et sur plusieurs molécules de référence du système cardiovasculaire pour ses complications. Pourtant la pathologie est toujours en progression et une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes impliqués dans son développement est nécessaire afin d'améliorer la prise en charge des patients diabétiques. C'est dans ce contexte que se place notre étude, où nous avons clarifié le rôle du récepteur de type 2 à l'angiotensine Il (AT2R) dans le développement et les complications liées à la pathologie diabétique. En effet, le système rénine-angiotensine occupe une place centrale dans la physiopathologie du diabète et n'est aujourd'hui ciblé que par des antagonistes du récepteur de type 1 à l'angiotensine Il (ATI R) ou des inhibiteurs de l'enzyme de conversion. Nous montrons ici à l'aide de deux modèles de diabète (de type 1 et de type 2) et d'un modèle de souris déficientes en AT2R qu'il possède de façon intéressante deux rôles opposés dans cette pathologie : un rôle protecteur dans l'induction et le développement du diabète, et un rôle perturbateur au niveau vasculaire. En effet il prévient l'augmentation de la glycémie mais renforce la dysfonction endothéliale et le remodelage vasculaire associés au diabète. Ces résultats ouvrent sur de nombreuses perspectives thérapeutiques quant à la modulation pharmacologique d'AT2R dans le diabète
Diabetes is a constantly progressing pathology described by a high blood-glucose levels. Its treatment is currently based on insulin therapy to regulate glycaemia levels, and several drugs standards for cardiovascular diseases. However, a better understanding of mecanisms involved in its physiopathology remain needed to improve patients care. Thus, we studied here the role of angiotensin Il type 2 receptor (AT2R) in development and cardiovascular complications of diabetes mellitus. Indeed renin-angiontensin system is a key regulator of diabetes physiopathology but is targeted mostly by angiotensin Il type 1 receptor antagonists and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. By using two models of diabetes mellitus (type 1 and type 2) and a AT2R knock-out mouse model that AT2R interestingly possesses two opposite roles in diabetic pathology : it protects from diabetes induction and development but improve vascular complications associated with diabetes as endothelial dysfunction and vascular remodeling. Our results show that AT2R could be a new therapeutic target in diabetes

Résumé :

Cette these etudie la carriere politique de paul ngei, politicien kenyan, entre 1945 et 1990. En reprenant le paradigme du politicien entrepreneur et de la gestion des ressources politiques, elle montre qu'il est necessaire de saisir les interactions entre trois arenes pour analyser la competition politique au kenya : les terroirs, les districts et l'arene nationale. Dans la premiere partie, l'analyse se porte sur la naissance d'une entreprise politique (1945-1961), issue de l'opportunite historique d'un leader et de la fractures sociale qui s'est developpee dans un terroir au lendemain de la seconde guerre mondiale. La deuxieme partie est centree sur les annees de croissance de l'entreprise politique de paul ngei (1961-1969) au cours desquelles celui-ci deploie ses premieres strategies de conquete du pouvoir et apprend, a ses depens, les contraintes normatives posees des le lendemain de l'independance pour encadrer les strategies de legitimation et la gestion des ressources politiques. La troisieme partie est consacrees aux deux ages de la maturite de cette entreprise politique (1969-1990). Le premier, celui de l'epanouissement, voit l'homme politique kamba gerer efficacement ses ressources locales et nationales pour se faire coopter aux plus hauts sommets de l'etat (1969-1978). Le second, celui du declin, illustre a la fois le changement des regles normatives de la competition pour le pouvoir au kenya et celui du rapport de representation entre l'homme politique et un terroir, transforme par des mutations socio-economiques rapides. Au cours de cette etude, trois ressources politiques sont analysees en detail : les reseaux de mobilisation electorale que sont les associations de clans et les groupes de femmes et la pratique du serment, le "kithitu"
This thesis analyses the political career of paul ngei, a kenyan politician, from 1945 to 1990. Using the theoretical framework of political entrepreneurship and ressources management, it shows that it is necessary to consider the interactions between three arenas to analyse properly political competition in kenya : the constituency, district and national levels. In the first section, the birth of a political career is analysed (1945-1961), showing how an historic opportunity was given to paul ngei in parallel to the social fracture which developped in his constituency; kangundo, after the second world war. The second section focuses on the debut of paul ngei's political career (1961-1969). During those years ngei puts his first attempts to conquer positions of power and learns the hard way the normative constraints limiting the use of his political ressources. The third section is devoted the mature years of his political carreer (1969-1990). In the seventies ngei manages to use his local and national political resources to access the highest spheres of political power, becoming a member of "the royal family". But in eighties, ngei has to face both the change of the normative rules guiding political competition in kenya and the transformation taking place in his rural constituency. Throughout this study a special emphasis is given to the analysis of three political resources : the networks of mobilisation organised around women groups and clan associations and the use of the kithitu oath

Résumé :

The reality today is that we are all interdependent and have to co-exist on this small planet therefore, the only sensible and intelligent way of resolving differences and clashes of interests, whether between individuals or nations, is through dialogue --the Dalai Lama Nomadic pastoralist communities all over the world depend on the keeping livestock for their livelihood, and are characterized by constant migration, in search of pasture and water, or what others may call “search for greener pastures”. Most often as the case such as in Northern Kenya these communities or clans are in conflict with each other mainly over the same scarce resources- water and pasture. This particular treatise explores the role of local NGOs in managing such inter-clan conflict. As aptly put by Lewis (1981: 10-13), when grazing land is abundant, settlement patterns of the pastoral communities may include many non patrilineal kin, or other clans, the true patrilineal kin is honored when pressure arises in the form of diminishing water and pasture, in such instances those who are not one‟s clan become undesirable aliens, thus it is was not a surprise to witness, in the course of conducting the study the many sprouting settlements in Wajir County consisting of entirely agnatic kin, meant to protect “clan‟s” ideals at any costs. Intra-clan and inter-clan conflicts are thus common in the entire Northern Kenya; this study explores the management of inter-clan conflict in Wajir County, North Eastern Province of Kenya. In particular, this research offers an exploration and discussion of the sources of inter-clan conflict, the role of the local NGOs and the perceptions of the local communities, politicians, provincial administration and the local peace committees in the processes of the managing inter-clan conflicts by the local NGOs. With reference to relevant research and literature, as well as the researcher‟s good background understanding on the interventions of the local NGOs in Wajir County, this treatise will provide a series of recommendations to respond to the recurrent inter-clan conflict in the Wajir County, which to some extent could also be applicable to communities with similar settings in Africa and beyond.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

La présente thèse est un essai de compréhension de la transgression récurrente du cadre de « bonne gouvernance », imposé par la Banque Mondiale, face au constat des mauvais résultats des entreprises publiques béninoises (ancien Dahomey). Elle tente donc de répondre à une question : pourquoi les mécanismes, procédures et règles établis sont-ils en permanence transgressés dans le secteur public ? Répondre à cette question permet de saisir les causes de l’éloignement des entreprises de la performance mobilisée, dans ce contexte, sous le prisme de l’efficacité socio-économique, de la satisfaction des clients-usagers et de la rationalisation des ressources. Cette recherche se fonde sur l’idée que les méthodes de gestion doivent s’inscrire dans le cadre socioculturel et mobilise la notion de clan comme servant de base à la formation du contrat psychologique des fournisseurs et des employés des entreprises publiques dans les commandes publiques d’une part et les relations d’emploi d’autre part. Ce contrat psychologique favorise les transgressions du cadre de « bonne gouvernance ». Il a été question d’explorer, à la SBEE et au CNCB, si les logiques claniques fondent ou non les contrats psychologiques, propices aux transgressions, ce qui éloigne ces entreprises de la performance. Des interviews conduites auprès des parties prenantes des achats publics (fournisseurs, organes de passation internes à l’entreprise) et de l’emploi (personnels, dirigeants), de l’exploitation des documents collectés et de la narration des faits observés, il ressort que l’entreprise publique est perçue comme un clan. Aussi, cohabitent les clans politique, ethnique et familial de même que le « paternalisme adoptif » dont les logiques d’action comportent les transgressions entraînant la mauvaise utilisation des ressources publiques et l’insatisfaction des clients-usagers. Toutefois, le phénomène du clan n’est pas exclusif. La perception des entreprises publiques par les différents acteurs de même que la bonne foi de gens, désireux d’apporter leur expertise en vue de sortir du chômage, sont aussi parfois la base des contrats psychologiques. Il arrive, en général, que le contrat psychologique fasse l’objet de rupture, ce qui est à l’origine de grandes déceptions. Cette situation peut ne pas être définitive. A force de lutte, d’espoir ou à l’avènement d’un nouveau directeur, leurs anciennes attentes/promesses peuvent être restaurées, ce qui correspond à une reprise du contrat psychologique. La performance des entreprises publiques est, en premier lieu, clanique en sus de la recherche de la satisfaction de besoins physiologiques par du travail honnête, ce que l’environnement peut corrompre. L’éloignement des entreprises publiques de la performance est donc favorisé par un ensemble de facteurs convergents dont le clan, la représentation de l’entreprise comme « une manne à se distribuer » puis la recherche de la sécurité d’emploi dans un contexte marqué par le chômage. Quelles sont les solutions aux transgressions ? - En premier lieu, le recul effectif du pouvoir politique des entreprises publiques par l’intégration des administrateurs extérieurs, bien que ne participant pas au capital est une solution. - Permettre au conseil d’administration de jouer son plein rôle. - Il est impossible d’exclure les clans et leurs logiques. Toutefois, ils ne devraient pas exister au détriment des intérêts de la collectivité nationale. Ainsi, est-il utile de remettre le travail, l’équité la contribution individuelle et collective au cœur de l’éducation nationale. - Les règles d’organisation existantes pourraient être évaluées, de nouvelles règles élaborées suivant le principe de l’« inclusiveness » puis mises en œuvre. - Assurer leur bonne diffusion/internalisation et la surveillance collective de leur mise en œuvre. - Les objectifs communs de performance devront être définis et atteints ensembles
This thesis is an understanding of the recurring transgression of testing the framework of "good governance" imposed by the World Bank, opposite the finding of bad results Beninese public enterprises (former Dahomey). So it tries to answer a question: why are the mechanisms established, procedures and rules constantly violated in the public sector? Answering this question captures the causes of the remoteness of used performance businesses, in this context, from the perspective of socio-economic efficiency, user-customers satisfaction and good use of resources. This research is based on the idea that management practices must be part of the socio-cultural context and mobilizes the notion of clan as providing the basis for the formation of the suppliers and employees psychological contract of public companies in public procurement on the one hand, and employment relationships on the other. This promotes the context of transgressions of "good governance". There has been talk of exploring, SBEE and CNCB, if the clan logic based or not psychological contracts, prone transgressions, what separates these companies from performance.From Interviews conducted with stakeholders in public procurement (suppliers, internal organs award to the company) and employment relations (personal, leaders), operation of the documents collected within companies and narration of observed facts, it appears that the public company is represented as a clan. Also coexist political, ethnic and family clans as the "adoptive paternalism" whose action logics include transgressions involving the misuse of public resources and the dissatisfaction of the users-customers. However, the clan is not exclusive. The perception of public enterprises by the various stakeholders as well as the good faith of people, eager to bring their expertise to get out of unemployment, determine the psychological contracts. It happens, in general, that the psychological contract is subject to rupture, which is the source of great disappointment. This may not be definitive. With a fight of strength, hope or the advent of a new director, their former expectations / promises can be restored, corresponding to a recovery of the psychological contract. The performance of public enterprises is first of all, clanic. But, looking for the satisfaction of physiological needs by honest work is poorly exploited. The remoteness of public enterprises performance is enhanced by a set of converging factors including the clan, company representation as "a godsend to distribute" then search for job security in an unemployment context and particularly the fear of unemployment. On the factors listed above, what are the solutions to the transgressions? - First, the decline of the state of governance of public enterprises through the integration of outside directors, although not participating in their capital. - It is impossible to exclude the clan logic. However, the organizational rules must be implemented and the common goals of performance must be set and achieved together. - Develop the new rules on the principle of inclusiveness, ensure their proper dissemination / internalization and collective monitoring of their implementation. - Focus on work values and contribution to the nation. As perspective, research on the performance of public enterprises is based on the reality of the clan and representations help to better define the objectives to make them feasible

Résumé :

Bakgrund: Forskningen kring projekt har under senare år ökat i omfattning. En anledning är att projektorganiseringen utgör ett sätt att samla ett antal specialister för att få dem att samverka mot ett gemensamt mål. Utöver de interna relationer som uppstår i projekt förekommer det även involvering av interorganisatoriska partners i samarbetet vilket är speciellt vanligt i byggprojekt som karaktäriseras av en hög grad av interorganisatorisk specialisering. Problemformuleringar: Den utpräglade specialiseringen inom byggprojekt fordrar som all annan typ av specialisering, samordning och koordinering av resurser med den skillnaden att det här handlar om samordning över de organisatoriska gränserna. Det som denna studie behandlar är därför de relationer byggföretag har till sina underentreprenörer i samband medbyggprojekt. Fokus ligger på hur företag kan samverka vertikalt i förädlingskedjan för att på detta sätt uppnå konkurrensfördelar.

Syfte: Syftet med denna magisteruppsats är att utforska styrning och kontraktering av interorganisatoriska relationer för projektbaserad byggverksamhet. Utöver detta är syftet att specificera en optimala relationen mellan byggherre och underentreprenör för de fall som studien omfattar.

Avgränsningar: Studien har avgränsats till att endast innefatta relationen mellan byggherre och underentreprenör.

Genomförande: Studien har genomförts med grund i kontraktsansatsen genom intervjuer på två byggföretag med olika strategi, storlek och geografisk placering.

Resultat: Resultatet visar att en optimal relation mellan byggherre och underentreprenör är avhängigt av i vilken grad samverkan kan ledan till utveckling hos de båda parterna. Alltför omfattande outsourcing av tjänster kan vara negativt precis som alltför täta relationer. Därför är situationen helt avgörande. Ger även stöd åt- samt utvecklar Alvesson&Lindkvists teori om ekonomisk kooperativa klaner.

Background: Business research focusing on different aspects of project work has recently increased. One reason is that project teams can be used as an effec- tive means of getting specialists from different parts of a business to work to- wards a common goal. In addition to the internal project relations that charac- terize project work, some businesses have also shown evidence of involving ex- ternal parties in projects. This is particularly common for construction projects where a large number of firms enter a project in order to achieve a high degree of interorganizational specialisation.

Purpose: The high extent of specialization within the construction industry in- creases the need for coordination of resources among participating firms. This thesis relates to this coordination with special regard to the relation between contractor and sub-contractor and the involvement of subcontractorsin the verti-cal dimension of the supply chain. Hence, the purpose of this study is to explore the procurement phases related to the involvement of subcontractors in con-struction projects. Further, the study aims at specifying the optimal relations between main- and sub contractor for the construction firms researched. D

elimitation: This thesis is solely focusing on the relations between main con- tractor and sub-contractor and is not dealing with other parties involved in con-struction projects.

Realization: The research material for this thesis has been obtained through in- terviews with employees of two Swedish construction firms that differ in strat- egy, size and geographical location.

Conclusion: The concluding remarks of the study indicate that the optimal rela- tion between main- and sub contractor is highly dependent on in what ways the relations may lead to long-term development for the parties. A high extent of outsourcing from the main contractor as well as too extensive partnering rela- tions may lead to substantial disadvantages in development for both firms. Therefore the environment in which the main contractor is operating is of great importance to the decision on how to handle subcontractor relations. The study also gives insights into the clan literature and supports and extends the theory of economic cooperative clans, developed by Mats Alvesson&Lars Lindkvist.

Résumé :

Trois décennies ont passé depuis l’accord de paix entre les Libanais au terme de la guerre civile commencée en 1975. L’accord de Taëf a adopté l’application de la décentralisation administrative pour favoriser le développement local au Liban. Les conférences internationales de financement du Liban (Paris 3, CEDRE, …) qui ont généré des dons et des prêts conditionnés à des réformes structurelles dont une nécessaire gouvernance locale fait partie afin de renforcer la participation des municipalités et des habitants.Ce développement économique des territoires régionaux libanais dépend du pouvoir des familles claniques féodales. Depuis des siècles, ces anciennes familles détiennent les ressources de production et ont la mainmise sur la gouvernance territoriale. Ces familles se partagent le territoire du Liban et leurs tractations conditionnent les règles d’une démocratie consensuelle. Chaque famille gouverne son fief et joue le jeu des influences politiques et de la protection de sa communauté confessionnelle pour influencer les instances politiques nationales. La logique communautaire de la société libanaise avec sa mosaïque de 18 groupes confessionnels répartis sur un petit territoire est entretenue par les familles claniques qui se présentent comme les protectrices de leur communauté. Le clientélisme est leur moyen de leur maintien au pouvoir. Dans cette perspective, ce système de gouvernance est devenu pour les politiciens un leurre sociopolitique.Notre thèse contribue à une lecture socio-politico-économique de l’influence de ces grandes familles sur le développement économique du caza de Jezzine.Dans le cadre de cette recherche on étudie l’application des notions de gouvernance territoriale, de décentralisation, des autorités traditionnelles ainsi que celle du développement économique local. Après une analyse de la littérature existante sur ces thèmes, nous avons conduit une analyse en deux volets afin de construire un modèle avec les variables impliquées dans le développement à Jezzine : une étude qualitative exploratoire par l’analyse d’entretiens avec des représentants de la société jezzinoise et une étude quantitative confirmatoire par questionnaire. Cette thèse éclaire la dynamique sociopolitique territoriale des familles claniques féodales à Jezzine, mais aussi les liens avec la gouvernance nationale. Le modèle final obtenu comprend 20 variables indépendantes et montre que ces grandes familles claniques forment une variable médiatrice pour expliquer le développement économique local du caza de Jezzine. Ceci nous permettra d’élaborer des pistes sur l’impact d’une telle démarche de décentralisation appliquée au Liban
Three decades have passed since the peace agreement among the Lebanese at the end of the civil war, started in 1975. The Taef agreement adopted the administrative decentralization to promote local development in Lebanon. The international fundraising conferences for Lebanon (Paris 3, CEDRE, ...) that generated donations and conditioned loans linked to structural reforms such as a necessary local governance to strengthen the participation of municipalities and inhabitants.This economic development of Lebanese local territories depends on the power of feudal clan families. For centuries, these ancient families hold the means of production and have control over the local governance. The territory of Lebanon is controlled by these families, their alliances, and their political confessional practices called by them a “consensual democracy”. Each family gains its political influences over the national political authorities through its objective of “protecting its confessional community”. So, the community-based logic of Lebanese society with its mosaic of 18 sectarian groups spread over a small territory is maintained by the clan families who present themselves as the protectors of their community. Political patronage is their way of keeping them in power. In this perspective, this system of governance has become for Lebanese traditional politicians a socio-political decoy.Our thesis contributes to a socio-politico-economical reading of the influence of these large families on the economic development of the caza of Jezzine.We studied the implementation of the notions of territorial governance, decentralization, traditional authorities as well as local economic development. After an analysis of the existing literature on these topics, we conducted two-part analysis to build a model with the variables involved in the development in Jezzine: an exploratory qualitative study conducted through interviews with the representatives of Jezzine society, and a confirmatory quantitative questionnaire-based study. This thesis illuminates the socio-political territorial dynamics of the feudal clan families in Jezzine, and their interrelations with the national governance. The final model obtained includes 20 independent variables and shows that these large clan families form a mediating variable to explain the local economic development of the caza of Jezzine. This will allow us to elaborate on the impact of such a decentralization process applied to Lebanon

Résumé :

This is a thesis that deals with the norms and rules of players playing online games together. It is also a thesis about believability, the current capabilities of non-player characters (NPCs) and the attitudes amongst game developers towards dynamic and systemic games AI. The primary theme of this thesis considers which means of communication and coordination in terms of norms and rules are present in groups of players and particularly in guilds and clans playing Massively Multi Online Games (MMOGs) and First Person Shooters (FPSs) respectively. The presence of norms in these types of groups has been overlooked in previous research even though guilds have been addressed to some extent. When rules have been discussed in games research, the actual use, meaning and interpretation behind these rules from a player perspective has been omitted. In this thesis rules and norms are interpreted from a guild and clan perspective as important means for coordination, used in order to keep the group together. The implicit rules are further seen as implicit rules made explicit through guild and clan forums where these groups of players express how to preserve the shared game experience. The absence of rituals, norms and rules has also been studied in temporary groups of one MMOG, with the explanation that existing relations with other players are maintained in these game sessions, but new relations are usually seen as too costly to invest in. The second theme is directed at believability and the state of current NPCs, how immersion is influenced by NPCs that do not act in believable ways. The second theme is also influenced by the first theme, whereby rules and norms are seen as valuable tools for creating believability in NPCs, directly targeting the social layer, a slightly overlooked area of research. The last section is directed at applying the results from the first section, how players play by the rules and norms of the group, and how this could foster believability in NPCs.

At the time of the doctoral defense, the following papers were unpublished and had a status as follows: Paper 2: In press. Paper 5: In press. Paper 6: In press.

A anÃlise dos dados primÃrios e secundÃrios extraÃdos destas pesquisas serviu para estabelecer uma reflexÃo entre os conceitos definidos cientificamente e o arquÃtipo de idoso compreendido pelo senso comum das pessoas. A principal suposiÃÃo deste trabalho sustenta-se na idÃia de que o idoso de modo geral possui uma forte necessidade de socializaÃÃo, influenciando fortemente seu comportamento de consumo. Quando visto na perspectiva do poder de compra â mais precisamente o de baixa renda â esta necessidade de socializaÃÃo os estimulando a se reunirem em grupos para realizarem suas atividades de lazer. De outro modo, o trabalho tambÃm se propÃe a produzir um discurso de valorizaÃÃo para este segmento e revelar algumas oportunidades mercadolÃgicas a serem exploradas pelas empresas que investem em sustentabilidade e responsabilidade social.

Résumé :

Du fait de leur isolement, les lieux comme Grand-Galet et Ravine-Ango ont gardé des fonctionnements traditionnels où chaque membre de la famille a un rôle et une fonction complémentaires. L'évolution rapide de la société réunionnaise au cours des 50 dernières années a eu des incidences sur ces localités en fonction de leur isolement.(Résumé de l'auteur)

Texte intégral

Résumé :

La vie rurale de la Corée du sud se caractérise par le rôle structurant du village clanique dont la mise en place coincide avec le développement de la riziculture et la vulgarisation du néo-confucianisme. A cet égard, l'influence culturelle de la Chine centrale ( bassin du Yang Tze ) est patante. Mais il a fallu la volonté politique de la dynastie Li pour que se mette en place cette structure trilogique qui allait au fil des siècles modeler le paysage agraire coréen. Notre dessein est de camper le cadre physique et humain dans lequel s'est faite cette mise en place, puis d'en souligner les mutations les plus récentes dans le contexte de développement industriel du pays et de la modernisation de son agriculture. L'étude de trois villages considérés comme typiques du village clanique nous permettra d'illustrer notre propos.

Hayward, Janet M. « “We are white” : oral tradition, documented history and molecular biology of Xhosa clans descended from non-African forebears and their expression of this ancestry through the idiom of ancestor religion ». Thesis, Rhodes University, 2018. http://hdl.handle.net/10962/62939.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Xhosa clan membership is symbolised by a clan-name (isiduko) and passed along the male line from father to son. This social indicator has a biological counterpart in Y chromosome DNA that passes through successive generations in the patriline. Both relate specifically to a distant patrilineal forebear or apical ancestor. The present study has involved the collection and documentation of oral-historical information relating to the descent of certain Cape Nguni clans from non-African forebears and (where possible) a review of documented accounts of such origins. The research has also included collection of buccal cells from male research participants and analysis of their Y chromosome DNA. This method indicates whether a man’s patrilineal forebear lived in Africa. Otherwise, it indicates the broad geographical region from which he originated, hence providing an additional, independent source of information relating to ancestry that can confirm or challenge claims made based on oral history. Ethnographic research into the performance of distinctive ancestor rituals by clan members explores the continuing relevance of foreign ancestry in the contemporary context of rural communities in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. The study heeds calls for the decolonisation of scholarship in various ways: methodologically, through transdisciplinary research; ontologically, by questioning the utility of the nature: culture and related dichotomies; and epistemologically, because instead of relying entirely on the western academic tradition, it takes account of other modes of knowledge production. In rejection of the notion that only one side of history is true, it records multiple voices – those of the powerful but also the ordinary. The study deals with race and racial identification, but confirms the superficiality of these constructed differences by offering evidence of their submergence in the unifying power of kinship and descent.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Pour bien comprendre la realite politique corse, il convient d'en saisir les particularismes les plus etroits. La region du niolu - centre-nord-ouest de l'ile - en est la parfaite illustration, de part son caractere geographique marque, lequel a entraine pour sa population un cloisonnement pluriseculaire. A travers l'etude des comportements politiques d'une de ses communes -calacuccia-, c'est une approche microsociologique qui est proposee, apte a apporter un eclairage nouveau sur le role du clan, du "partitu" villageois, de la famille et de l'individu. Plus globalement, la problematique envisagee est celle-ci : la corse, en tant que cadre insulaire, produit-elle des sous-ensembles socio-politiques, veritables insularismes a l'interieur de l'ile? de ce point de vue, l'analyse des differents consultations electorales, sur trois decennies - 1919-1955-, mais avec un point d'ancrage comparatif sur les annees posterieures - 1958-1989-, de meme que celle des fondements du pouvoir local, permettent de mettre en lumiere deselements de reponse positifs a l'interrogation proposee. En conclusion, c'est par le biais de ce type d'investigation, a la fois theorique et empirique, faisant une part essentielle a l'enquete orale, que l'on peut le mieux apprehender de ce que les specialistes de la sociologie electorale considerent comme "un probleme insoluble".
