    Description: Global warming is imposing tremendous challenges upon human and otherwise biotic life on Earth. A warmer atmosphere holds more moisture. The consensus is that the moisture transport by the atmospheric circulation strengthens and makes already wet areas of moisture convergence wetter and already dry areas of moisture divergence drier. Therefore, the tropics and mid-to-high latitudes will get wetter and the subtropics will get drier. Without any change in the interannual variability of hydroclimate, the change in the mean hydroclimate would equally increase drought risk in some places and flood risk in others. Moreover, global warming will cause the interannual variability of the hydroclimate to intensify, which will induce more droughts and floods. Furthermore, the changing atmospheric circulation interaction with the land surface may cause storm track alterations and may play an important role in shaping moisture redistribution. The author's contributions have documented the precipitation trends in southeast of the US, the Nile River Basin Ethiopia, Iraq, the Huai River Basin of northern China, and the Qilian Mountains of western China. The precipitation predictability on both global and regional scales are also studied. The interaction among climate systems in southeast Asia is also explicitly documented.

    Description: La théorie de Darwin aussi bien que sa réception scientifique, littéraire et politique en France continuent d’être matière à débat. Les controverses qu’elle a suscitées à partir de la première traduction française de L’Origine des espèces en 1862 n’ont pas été le seul fait des naturalistes, des géologues ou des paléontologues. De nombreux autres savants se sont préoccupés de l’impact du darwinisme sur leur discipline, notamment en philologie, dans les mathématiques, la linguistique, la psychologie comparée, l’histoire ou la philosophie. Les auteurs des textes réunis dans Darwin au Collège de France montrent que le Collège de France constitue un point de référence idéal pour étudier les idées de Darwin et leur réception ainsi que la manière dont elles ont pu jouer sur la formation des disciplines du milieu du xixe siècle jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Parmi les défenseurs ou les adversaires français du darwinisme, on compte en effet plusieurs de ses professeurs, à commencer par Pierre Flourens, dont l’Examen du livre de M. Darwin (1864) a été l’un des premiers comptes rendus hostiles de L’Origine des espèces. D’autres figurent encore dans la liste : Ernest Renan, Edgar Quinet, Théodule Ribot, Jean-Charles Lévêque, Étienne-Jules Marey, Jean-François Nourrisson, Michel Bréal, Gabriel Tarde, Henri Bergson, Étienne Gilson. À cette liste s’ajoutent les professeurs de biologie, de médecine, de paléontologie, de neurosciences, ou d’économie politique. Le colloque, dont les contributions sur quelques-uns des savants mentionnés ci-dessus sont réunies dans le deuxième volume de la collection « Passage des disciplines », a été organisé par Alain Prochiantz et Antoine Compagnon dans le cadre du projet « Passage des disciplines : Histoire globale du Collège de France, xixe siècle - xxe siècle », qui s’intéresse à l’évolution des matières enseignées aussi bien que celles qui ont n’y ont pas été admises et qui forment un « Collège virtuel », depuis la fin du xviiie siècle jusqu’aux années 1960. Il est dirigé par Antoine Compagnon, avec la collaboration de Céline Surprenant et le soutien financier de PSL (2016-2019), et de la Fondation Hugot.

    Description: Anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are dramatically influencing the environment, and research is strongly committed to proposing alternatives, mainly based on renewable energy sources. Low GHG electricity production from renewables is well established but issues of grid balancing are limiting their application. Energy storage is a key topic for the further deployment of renewable energy production. Besides batteries and other types of electrical storage, electrofuels and bioderived fuels may offer suitable alternatives in some specific scenarios. This Special Issue includes contributions on the energy conversion technologies and use, energy storage, technologies integration, e-fuels, and pilot and large-scale applications.

    Description: Si c’est « malgré tout » qu’il faut défendre la sociologie, c’est malgré ce qu’elle est devenue. Bien loin de ses grandes espérances initiales et des splendeurs que nous ont léguées les Durkheim, Weber, Simmel, Mead, Elias, Mauss, etc. Ce que l’on appelle sociologie s’est peu à peu recroquevillé jusqu’à apparaître comme la « science (ou la pseudo science) des restes », la science de ce dont ne parlent ni les philosophes, ni les économistes, ni les historiens, ni les anthropologues, ni les théoriciens de la littérature, etc. Éclatée en de multiples chapelles théoriques ou idéologiques, privée de colonne vertébrale paradigmatique et institutionnelle, elle ne croit plus pouvoir trouver son unité que dans une référence de plus en plus incantatoire au « terrain » et à l’empirisme, et dans ses querelles infinies sur ce qui fait la bonne méthode ou le bon terrain. La sociologie classique, celle qu’il nous faut faire revivre et actualiser, se présentait tout autrement. Elle revendiquait hautement une approche empirique de la réalité et le souci d’établir des faits, elle aussi, mais elle n’imaginait pas que ce puisse être accompli hors-théorie et sans enjeux normatifs, c’est-à- dire éthiques et politiques... Dit autrement, elle se vivait comme le lieu et le moment généraliste de la science sociale générale. C’est cette sociologie là, autrement dit la science sociale générale, qui nous fait désormais défaut et qu’on appelle ici à renaître de ses cendres.

    Description: En 2011, une association sur cinq a une activité culturelle. Sur ces 267 000 associations culturelles, 35 100 emploient au moins un salarié, l’activité de toutes les autres reposant exclusivement sur la participation bénévole. Il y a 169 000 salariés employés par des associations culturelles, soit 9,4 % de l’emploi salarié associatif. Comme pour les entreprises, les salariés des associations culturelles sont plus fréquemment en contrat court et ont un niveau de formation plus élevé que les salariés des autres secteurs. On compte en moyenne cinq salariés par association culturelle employeuse, deux fois moins que la moyenne. Les associations s’appuient également sur des bénévoles, qui donnent donc de leur temps sans être rémunérés. Les associations culturelles emploient de manière bénévole l’équivalent de 189 000 emplois à temps plein. Le nombre de bénévoles présents dans une association culturelle est d’environ 18. Chaque bénévole travaille en moyenne 63 heures par an dans une association sans salariés, et 86 heures par an dans une association employeuse de salariés. En 2011, le budget cumulé de l’ensemble des associations culturelles est estimé à 8,3 milliards d’euros. En termes monétaires, les associations culturelles pèsent à peu près autant qu’en termes d’emplois au sein de l’économie associative : 9,7 %. Une association culturelle dispose d’un budget moyen de 31 000 euros, deux fois moins que la moyenne d’un budget associatif, du fait de leur taille plus réduite. Les associations culturelles sont moins dépendantes des financements publics (40 %) que la moyenne (49 %). En particulier, elles ont moins accès aux commandes publiques et se financent plutôt par le biais de subventions. Les communes sont, plus que dans les autres secteurs associatifs, à l’origine d’une grande part des subventions, notamment pour les associations qui n’emploient aucun salarié. La moitié des associations culturelles réalise de façon principale ou secondaire une activité d’organisation ou d’accueil de spectacle vivant. Elles ont en moyenne moins de salariés que celles des autres activités culturelles, des budgets plus réduits et ont davantage recours au bénévolat.

    Description: Wildfire risk can be perceived as the combination of wildfire hazards (often described by likelihood and intensity) with the susceptibility of people, property, or other valued resources to that hazard. Reflecting the seriousness of wildfire risk to communities around the world, substantial resources are devoted to assessing wildfire hazards and risks. Wildfire hazard and risk assessments are conducted at a wide range of scales, from localized to nationwide, and are often intended to communicate and support decision making about risks, including the prioritization of scarce resources. Improvements in the underlying science of wildfire hazard and risk assessment and in the development, communication, and application of these assessments support effective decisions made on all aspects of societal adaptations to wildfire, including decisions about the prevention, mitigation, and suppression of wildfire risks. To support such efforts, this Special Issue of the journal Fire compiles articles on the understanding, modeling, and addressing of wildfire risks to homes, water resources, firefighters, and landscapes.

    Description: Dans le sport, l'innovation s'impose de façon non équivoque, au moins en comparaison avec d'autres domaines de la vie sociale. La maîtrise de l'innovation - qu'elle soit ou non technique - et l'obligation de maintenir la recherche de solutions nouvelles sont bien des facteurs d'accès indispensables à la réussite sportive. Des chercheurs en sociologie, histoire économique, management et gestion des entreprises, sciences du sport et communication, ont confronté leurs travaux sur l'évolution de sports aussi divers que l'aviron à ses débuts, le rugby amateur ou professionnel, le football, la voile de compétition, le surf et les sports de glisse en Aquitaine, avec un grand crochet par la Martinique pour les compétitions de yoles martiniquaises… Ils examinent les conditions d'émergence et les multiples configurations que peut prendre l'innovation. Ils dégagent la morphologie des processus d'innovation également étudiés sous l'angle des politiques publiques territoriales et au sein d'associations sportives ou de clubs omnisports marqués depuis peu par des phénomènes de professionnalisation.

    Description: The purpose of this Special Issue was to collect and present research results and experiences on energy supply in the Visegrad Group countries. This research considers both macroeconomic and microeconomic aspects. It was important to determine how the V4 countries deal with energy management, how they have undergone or are undergoing energy transformation and in what direction they are heading. The articles concerned aspects of the energy balance in the V4 countries compared to the EU, including the production of renewable energy, as well as changes in its individual sectors (transport and food production). The energy efficiency of low-emission vehicles in public transport and goods deliveries are also discussed, as well as the energy efficiency of farms and energy storage facilities and the impact of the energy sector on the quality of the environment.

    Description: Depuis quelques années, le Brésil occupe une place de plus en plus importante sur la scène internationale en conséquence de grands changements socio-économiques – et plus particulièrement d’une réduction significative de la pauvreté et de l’inégalité des revenus. Cet ouvrage vise à présenter au public francophone, y compris au lecteur profane en matière de politique sociale brésilienne, la mise en place et l’évolution des différents programmes d’allocations sociales, dont le plus connu est la Bourse-Famille. L’analyse porte sur les caractéristiques de base de ces programmes, leurs formats, les changements conceptuels intervenus au cours du temps, le ciblage des bénéficiaires, les effets des allocations sur la composition du revenu des ménages ainsi que sur le déclin de la pauvreté et de l’inégalité. Enfin, l’accent est mis sur les défis à relever pour perfectionner cette politique des allocations afin de mieux protéger les enfants pauvres, la population la plus vulnérable actuellement.

    Description: Mises en place en 1981, les zones d'éducation prioritaires (ZEP) font désormais partie du paysage éducatif français. Pourtant, on connaît encore mal les évolutions et les effets d'une politique fondée sur la prise en charge collective et décentralisée des problèmes éducatifs. L'analyse sociologique telle qu'elle est menée ici conduit à mettre 1 accent sur les conditions locales qui favorisent ou qui freinent 1 investissement scolaire des parents, des enseignants et de nouveaux acteurs du champ éducatif : élus, animateurs, bénévoles... A travers une approche ethnographique comparative - une zone rurale et une zone urbaine sont étudiées parallèlement - qui se nourrit des apports des travaux anglo-saxons, l'auteur présente une réflexion nouvelle sur le rôle des dynamiques locales dans la reproduction et dans la transformation du système éducatif.

    Description: “Familles lyonnaises”, “haute société de Lyon”, “personnalités marquantes de la ville” : le Tout- Lyon Annuaire hésite lui-même au fil de ses éditions successives, entre ces différentes manières de qualifier les quelques milliers de personnes qui figurent dans sa liste mondaine. Le sociologue et l’historien parleront-ils plutôt d’élites, de couches dominantes, de bourgeoisie ? Quelles continuités, quelles évolutions peut-on observer dans les professions exercées, dans le jeu des alliances, dans les lieux de résidence, et aussi dans le recrutement des nouveaux inscrits ? C'est à ces questions que l’ouvrage tente de répondre en faisant à son tour les comptes d’un annuaire qui donne régulièrement à ces familles du “Tout-Lyon”, depuis le début de notre siècle, les moyens de se repérer et de se compter.

    Description: La recherche et l'aménagement du territoire des années 1960 nous ont légué l'image persistante de réseaux urbains régionaux et nationaux, construits sur la base de rapports hiérarchiques entre des villes de stature et de rayonnement inégaux. Comment ces positions, assignées par la puissance objective des agglomérations, mais aussi par la représentation et par la volonté aménagistes ont-elles évolué depuis près de trente ans ? Pour répondre à cette question, nous avons choisi de partir du cas spécifique de Pau, promue sous-capitale régionale par le schéma d'armature urbaine de l'Aquitaine (1965), mais soucieuse aussi, dès cette époque, d'affirmer son leadership sur l'aire quelque peu mythique des Pays de l'Adour, concurremment à Tarbes et surtout à Bayonne. Pour tenter d'éclairer, aujourd'hui, l'actualité des hiérarchies, des concurrences et des complémentarités entre cités, s'exprimant dans le cadre de l'Aquitaine (et au-delà lorsque les frontières administratives ne correspondent plus à l'articulation des réseaux), nous avons privilégié une approche des rapports urbains qui passe par l'étude de l'économie, de la géographie, mais aussi de la sociologie des services marchands aux entreprises. La poussée de ces activités de pointe illustre en effet l'expansion rapide d'un secteur tertiaire supérieur très expressif de l'Influence réelle qu'exercent les villes sur l'espace géographique ; très démonstratif de leur capacité, en somme, à forger des régions.

    Description: The high importance of free radical chemistry for a variety of biological events, including ageing and inflammation, has attracted considerable interest in understanding the related mechanistic steps at the molecular level. Modelling the free radical chemical reactivity of biological systems is an important research area. When studying free-radical-based chemical mechanisms, biomimetic chemistry and the design of established biomimetic models come into play to perform experiments in a controlled environment, suitably designed to be a similar as possible to cellular conditions. This Special Issue provides readers with a wide overview of biomimetic radical chemistry, where molecular mechanisms have been defined and molecular libraries of products are developed to be used as traces for the discoveries of some relevant biological processes. Several subjects are presented, with five articles and five reviews written by specialists in the fields of DNA, proteins, lipids, biotechnological applications and bioinspired synthesis, with “free radicals” as the common denominator.

    Description: This report published by ISPI and the Brookings Institution analyzes the challenges to international order posed by the ongoing race for technological superiority. From artificial intelligence and quantum computing to hypersonic weapons and new forms of cyber and electronic warfare, advances in technology have threatened to make the international security environment more unpredictable and volatile – yet the international community remains unprepared to assess and manage that risk. What is needed is a mature understanding of how technology has emerged as a key enabler of sovereignty in the XXI century, how the ongoing race for technological supremacy is disrupting the balance of power globally, and what the attendant strategic and security implications of those transformations will be. This report is an effort to that end.

    Description: Suivre l’itinéraire universitaire et politique de Guy Rocher, c’est littéralement refaire l’histoire du Québec de la dernière moitié du siècle dernier. Qu’on ne s’étonne donc pas que cet ouvrage aborde tout autant l’œuvre du sociologue que, plus largement, les boule­ver­sements d’une société confrontée aux défis incessants de sa modernisation. Si les témoignages nous font pénétrer dans l’intimité de l’homme et du citoyen, les analyses signées par des professeurs de renom nous dévoilent, sous un jour neuf, le paysage social, politique et scientifique du Québec. Écrits à partir de perspectives disciplinaires les plus diverses (science politique, droit, sociologie, histoire, etc.), les textes qui composent cet ouvrage nous permettent de mieux comprendre, non seulement l’évolution globale de la société québécoise, mais les enjeux bien contemporains que l’histoire a légués en héritage à la génération présente. Guy Rocher est né à Berthierville en 1924. Ses études classiques terminées, il joint les rangs de la Jeunesse étudiante catholique. Il fait par la suite ses études en sciences sociales à l’Université Laval avec le père Georges-Henri Lévesque et son doctorat en sociologie à l’Université Harvard sous la direction de Talcott Parsons. À son retour, il enseigne la sociologie d’abord à l’Université Laval puis, en 1960, il accepte le poste de directeur du Département de sociologie à l’Université de Montréal, dont il est toujours membre du corps professoral. Depuis 1983, il est aussi chercheur au Centre de recherche en droit public de cette même université. Il a été membre de la commission Parent (1961-1966), sous-ministre au Développement culturel (1977-1979) et au ministère du Développement social (1981-1983) du Gouvernement du Québec. Il est récipiendaire de plusieurs prix académiques, dont le prix Marcel-Vincent, le prix Léon-Gérin, le prix Molson, et le prix William Davidson de la Société royale du Canada, dont il est membre depuis 1974. Son ouvrage Introduction à la sociologie générale (1968) a été traduit en plusieurs langues et est encore aujourd’hui un livre de référence majeur pour l’enseignement de la sociologie.

    Description: Le contrôle du paludisme requiert plusieurs moyens de lutte associés au sein de stratégies adaptées au contexte environnemental et épidémiologique. Les moustiquaires imprégnées de pyréthrinoïdes constituent l’un des outils préventifs dans cette lutte : leur utilisation est simple et permet une protection individuelle et collective durable et accessible à tous. Cependant, depuis plus de dix ans, Anopheles gambiae, le principal vecteur du paludisme en Afrique, est devenu résistant à de nombreux insecticides. Cette résistance pose des questions d’ordre fondamental et opérationnel : le comportement des moustiques s’en trouve-t-il modifié ? Cette résistance s'accompagne-t-elle d'une réduction significative de l'efficacité des moustiquaires imprégnées ? À travers la synthèse de travaux de recherche réalisés tant en laboratoire que sur le terrain, cet ouvrage révèle pourquoi les moustiquaires imprégnées d'insecticides resteront, pendant longtemps encore, une arme indispensable dans la lutte contre le paludisme.

    Description: The World Health Organization recommends the consumption of plant foods instead of animal-origin foods due to their high levels of saturated fat and cholesterol. Consumption of plant products has led to research on the beneficial properties of their components beyond basic nutrients. Vegetable-derived peptides have shown multifunctional effects related to chronic diseases, attracting interest from the food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries. This reprint highlights studies on various vegetable extracts, such as chestnut, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, and Protium heptaphyllum gum resin, which have demonstrated antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and cholesterol-regulating properties. Specific compounds derived from plants, such as methyl p-coumarate and lupin protein hydrolysate, have shown effectiveness in reducing inflammation and anxiety, respectively. A vegetable extract of rosemary has been studied for its potential to treat osteogenesis imperfecta. Moreover, this repprint reviews Lycium barbarum berries, essential oils from Annonaceae species, antioxidant compounds, phytosterols, and natural compounds for the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis was discussed. Overall, these studies suggest that vegetable-derived bioactive compounds could serve as new nutraceuticals to prevent and treat a wide range of chronic diseases.

    Description: Nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDT&E) is one of the most important techniques for determining the quality and safety of materials, components, devices, and structures. NDT&E technologies include ultrasonic testing (UT), magnetic particle testing (MT), magnetic flux leakage testing (MFLT), eddy current testing (ECT), radiation testing (RT), penetrant testing (PT), and visual testing (VT), and these are widely used throughout the modern industry. However, some NDT processes, such as those for cleaning specimens and removing paint, cause environmental pollution and must only be considered in limited environments (time, space, and sensor selection). Thus, NDT&E is classified as a typical 3D (dirty, dangerous, and difficult) job. In addition, NDT operators judge the presence of damage based on experience and subjective judgment, so in some cases, a flaw may not be detected during the test. Therefore, to obtain clearer test results, a means for the operator to determine flaws more easily should be provided. In addition, the test results should be organized systemically in order to identify the cause of the abnormality in the test specimen and to identify the progress of the damage quantitatively.

    Description: L'image est un média, peut-être le premier, le plus ancien. Depuis Lascaux, les individus, les groupes, les pouvoirs politiques et religieux en ont fait un allié ou un péril. Tout au long du xxe siècle, les images se sont immiscées partout. Acheminées par le cinéma, la télévision ou la presse écrite, véhiculées par Internet, elles s'installent au cœur du public comme du privé. Avec l'émergence des médias de masse, l'image et la politique ont renforcé leurs liens, forgeant une relation où les deux champs s'interpellent et se nourrissent intensément. L'étude du champ politique doit donc se saisir de ce corpus toujours plus foisonnant. Elle doit s'y atteler sans se fixer de limites a priori sur une définition des images politiques et sans se contenter d'étudier leur contenu (politique). Réunissant une trentaine de contributions dans une perspective internationale et interdisciplinaire, cet ouvrage croise les supports, les espaces socioculturels et les temporalités afin de mettre au jour les invariants et les ruptures, qu'il s'agisse du choix des thèmes ou des modes de mise en scène de la politique à chaque époque ou selon chaque régime. Couvrant les xxe et xxie siècles, l'ouvrage permet de relier différentes « époques médiatiques » et de voir les continuités, les filiations, les apports, les recompositions et les complémentarités entre des médias dits traditionnels (cinéma, télévision, photographie, presse écrite) et les nouveaux médias à l'âge du numérique (Internet, téléphones portables, jeux vidéo) dans leur façon de s'emparer ou d'être saisis par la politique.

    Description: The first experiments on electron scattering were completed before the “official” discovery of this particle by J. J. Thomson. In spite of this, our knowledge of cross sections is still far from complete.More recent experiments had some unexpected results, like selective fragmentation of DNA constituents by low-energy electrons, or “reverse” phenomena, i.e., synthesis of simple amino acids from inorganic precursors, triggered by slow electrons. The most recent need for cross sections comes from modeling plasmas for industrial and thermonuclear applications, and atmospheres of solar and extra-solar planets.Both fundamental research (experiments, theory, reviews) and applications of electron-scattering cross sections in various processes are welcome.

    Description: La 26e Université Sportive d'Été organisée conjointement par l'Union Nationale des Clubs Universitaires et l'Union des Journalistes de Sport en France s'est déroulée du 4 au 6 septembre 2008 sur le thème suivant : Sport et Santé, sortir des contradictions, apporter des solutions. Organisée à Strasbourg, avec le soutien efficace du Strasbourg Université Club, elle a largement profité du rayonnement international de la Cité, en étant accueillie au Centre Européen de la Jeunesse et en ouvrant ses séquences d'analyse, de présentation d'expériences novatrices et de débats à des compétences européennes de premier plan. « Le sport, c'est la santé » : ce type d'adage à la vie opère comme un écran de fumée par rapport à la réflexion et à la valorisation d'une action cohérente, d'autant que les termes de sport et de santé recouvrent chacun des notions différentes et pas toujours complémentaires. Comment renouer avec l'éducation sportive - chez l'athlète assidu comme chez des pratiquants ayant une simple activité d'entretien physique - sinon en remettant à l'ordre du jour l'examen des interactions dynamiques entre sport et santé ? « Sport et santé » composent une question majeure posée à et par une société plus que jamais marquée par la sédentarité, le vieillissement de la population et des inégalités socio-économiques persistantes. A l'occasion de cette USE, chercheurs universitaires, enseignants d'EPS, éducateurs et dirigeants sportifs, élus politiques et acteurs administratifs, journalistes, porteurs de projets ont pu se montrer à la hauteur des enjeux en ébauchant des orientations pertinentes.

    Description: Le fleuve Niger constitue un véritable poumon humide pour l’Afrique de l’Ouest et plus spécialement pour la république du Mali. Dans ce pays, la gestion du fleuve constitue un enjeu majeur car on y trouve à la fois de remarquables systèmes de production traditionnels associés au phénomène naturel de crue – sources de moyens d’existence pour des centaines de milliers de personnes – mais aussi de grandes réalisations et promesses en matière d’aménagements modernes, hydroélectriques et hydroagricoles. À l’heure où de nouveaux projets d’équipement arrivent à concrétisation et où d’autres sont annoncés, il est important de faire le point sur l’état de santé de ce fleuve et de peser ce qu’il représente pour ses multiples usagers. Cette expertise collégiale, conduite par l’IRD et l’IER et réalisée avec le soutien de plusieurs institutions d’aide au développement et de défense de l’environnement, traite de ces différents aspects avec pour objectif, d’une part, la clarification des cadres institutionnels et des options de politiques publiques et, d’autre part, le renforcement des outils de suivi et d’aide à la décision.

    Description: It is our pleasure to present this Special Issue of Molecules entitled “Food Processing and Its Impact on Phenolic and other Bioactive Constituents in Food”. Bioactive compounds including phenolic ingredients have long been used as important constituents of a healthy diet. As a result, consumer awareness about the important role of high-quality products rich in bioactive compounds—especially phenolic compounds—in human nutrition, health, and prevention against diseases has increased. Additionally, methods for food processing, regardless of the technology used, have a huge impact on the quality of the final products. Therefore, the big challenges for scientists lie in the monitoring of changes during food processing and the optimization of technology to achieve the minimal degradation of nutrients (including phenolic compounds). Thus, for this Special Issue, I encourage you to read some interesting papers aimed at bringing the latest scientific news, insights, and advances in the field of food processing and its impact on bioactive constituents in food, especially phenolic compounds. The information presented will certainly arouse considerable interest among a large group of our readers from different disciplines and research fields.

    Description: The eradication of vector-borne diseases is threatened by the limited range of available insecticides, leading, inevitably, to the development of resistance. This is particularly concerning for malaria control, which relies heavily on insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual sprays (IRS). New chemistries are being developed, and innovative deployment of insecticides may play a role in overcoming resistance, either through new types of tools or new means of distribution. A variety of novel product types and vector control strategies are under development and evaluation, which is to be celebrated, but a strong evidence base is needed to guide effective operational deployment decisions. Novel approaches should be supported by robust data collected using appropriate and validated methods to monitor efficacy, durability, and any emerging resistance. This reprint presents original research into developing and characterizing new vector control products, as well as understanding and monitoring insecticide resistance. Review articles explore the impact of insecticide resistance and offer guidance on insecticide choice in the face of pyrethroid resistance. Consensus methodologies are presented, in the form of standard operating procedures (SOPs) designed to be adopted and used to generate reproducible data that can be compared and interpreted across and between studies. It is hoped that this collection of articles offers inspiration and guidance on how consistent data can be generated to inform more effective development, evaluation, and use of new and existing vector control tools.

    Description: Connected intelligent sensing reshapes our society by empowering people with increasing new ways of mutual interactions. As integration technologies keep their scaling roadmap, the horizon of sensory applications is rapidly widening, thanks to myriad light-weight low-power or, in same cases even self-powered, smart devices with high-connectivity capabilities. CMOS integrated circuits technology is the best candidate to supply the required smartness and to pioneer these emerging sensory systems. As a result, new challenges are arising around the design of these integrated circuits and systems for sensory applications in terms of low-power edge computing, power management strategies, low-range wireless communications, integration with sensing devices. In this Special Issue recent advances in application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC) and systems for smart sensory applications in the following five emerging topics: (I) dedicated short-range communications transceivers; (II) digital smart sensors, (III) implantable neural interfaces, (IV) Power Management Strategies in wireless sensor nodes and (V) neuromorphic hardware.

    Description: Les migrations internationales sont devenues l'un des enjeux majeurs des rapports entre les États. Dans ce cadre, les mouvements de réfugiés et de déplacés liés aux conflits politiques, identitaires ou territoriaux témoignent de la fragilité de constructions nationales encore si souvent contestées. Les principales modalités d'accueil des réfugiés montrent bien les obstacles à l'intégration comme les limites d'une assistance humanitaire dont l'action reste plus curative que préventive. Mais la paix revenue, le retour et la réintégration des réfugiés dans leur pays d'origine se heurtent encore à des difficultés politiques, juridiques et économiques qui sont autant de freins à la reconstruction nationale et qui, par là même, dessinent les migrations internationales du futur. Tels sont quelques-uns des grands thèmes évoqués dans les différentes contributions de cet ouvrage, dont certaines, comme celles sur les camps palestiniens du Liban, sur la revendication territoriale des Sahraouis ou encore sur le difficile retour des réfugiés cambodgiens, sont d'une actualité toujours brûlante.

    Description: Today, the flow of electricity is bidirectional, and not all electricity is centrally produced in large power plants. With the growing emergence of prosumers and microgrids, the amount of electricity produced by sources other than large, traditional power plants is ever-increasing. These alternative sources include photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine (WT), geothermal, and biomass renewable generation plants. Some renewable energy resources (solar PV and wind turbine generation) are highly dependent on natural processes and parameters (wind speed, wind direction, temperature, solar irradiation, humidity, etc.). Thus, the outputs are so stochastic in nature. New data-science-inspired real-time solutions are needed in order to co-develop digital twins of large intermittent renewable plants whose services can be globally delivered.

    Description: This volume commemorates the 40th anniversary of the University of Ottawa’s Department of Criminology, founded in 1968. It relates the history of the department from its origins to today, focusing on the theoretical debates that have influenced its critical and self reflexive approach to criminology. The contributions to this volume continue in that vein by questioning the traditional perspective of criminology on a variety of topics including police studies, mental health, political violence, suicide, and crime prevention. Rights and Voices reveals the significant role that the University of Ottawa has played in redefining criminology to advocate activism, social justice, and compassion.

Nous lui attribuons une interdisciplinarité située, territorialisée, mise en tension par les logiques contradictoires entre ancrage local et mondialisation, temps courts et temps longs, perspectives normatives et/ou descriptives, dynamiques créatives... Cadrées par des approches culturelles différentes, les propositions rassemblées dans cet ouvrage rendent compte d'une dynamique collective à l'œuvre. Un réseau scientifique en construction met aujourd'hui en relation la géographie de la musique avec l'urbanisme, la sociologie, les sciences politiques, l'anthropologie, la philosophie ou encore les sciences de la communication. Ensemble, ces disciplines nous invitent à considérer la musique dans les espaces, lieux et territoires qu'elle produit et consomme. Invitation au dialogue, cet ouvrage tente également de relier les productions francophones et anglophones. Il espère ainsi participer à une vision collective et ouverte des recherches sur le phénomène musical.

    Description: En Aquitaine, première région vitivinicole française, la vigne est présente sur la majeure partie des territoires, et la filière, avec ses exploitations en Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée, ses caves coopératives et ses maisons de négoce, constitue une forte composante de l'économie régionale. Les grands crus sont les principaux référents pour l'image des vins aquitains et tirent vers le haut l'ensemble du vignoble, et cependant les vins de Bordeaux occultent la diversité et la richesse des vins aquitains, ce qui nuit à une image de l'Aquitaine comme pays du vin. Vignobles et vins en Aquitaine s'attache à étudier ce paradoxe. La première partie, dans une synthèse de nombreux écrits de recherche, explique comment les histoires agraire, économique et humaine de la région ont fait du vin une spécificité aquitaine, inscrite dans les paysages et les sociétés, et évalue le rôle de la « place de Bordeaux ». La seconde partie propose des éclairages plus circonstanciés, regroupés en deux thèmes : les facteurs et marqueurs de la construction des territoires viticoles constituent un premier axe d'étude, suivi par les représentations et la défense de l'image qui forment un second champ. Les territoires viticoles aquitains sont des constructions sociales complexes, génératrices d'une identité forte et porteuse. Cet ouvrage a été réalisé par la collaboration d'historiens, géographes, économistes ou œnologues au sein de la MSHA et dans le cadre de programmes pluridisciplinaires du CERVIN (composante de l'UMR ADES). Il soulève des problématiques telles que l'articulation entre société et terroir, les effets déformants du système AOC ou les logiques territoriales « de clocher » qui ont perturbé la création d'une identité régionale. Les recherches de ces différents auteurs nous permettent de comprendre comment les viticulteurs aquitains ont été en mesure de maintenir une production que le monde entier envie encore malgré la crise.

    Description: L’urbanisation à l’échelle planétaire et la conscience croissante des problèmes écologiques font de l’« urbain » un objet privilégié pour l’action publique et la recherche. C’est en effet grâce à la perspective urbaine que nous parvenons aujourd’hui à une meilleure compréhension des sociétés contemporaines et des milieux de vie. En articulant les dimensions sociales, écologiques, politiques et matérielles, les recherches actuelles apportent de nouvelles connaissances sur les théories et définitions de l’urbain, les populations urbaines et la production de leur cadre de vie. Les enjeux sont de taille. Ils touchent à la qualité de vie des citadins et à la forme de nos sociétés : diversification des populations, accroissement des inégalités, recompositions des flux, des échelles et des pouvoirs urbains, changements de l’environnement planétaire, etc. Le présent ouvrage, qui repose sur un important travail collectif sur les villes des Nords et des Suds, propose un panorama engagé de ces enjeux présents et, surtout, à venir pour la recherche urbaine.

    Description: Le trachome, la maladie des « cils qui poussent à l’intérieur », est la deuxième cause de cécité dans le monde. Bien qu’elle soit susceptible d’être prévenue et traitée, elle frappe encore près de 80 millions de personnes, en particulier dans le sud du Sahara. Quelles sont les causes de cette maladie ? Comment y faire face ? Comment évaluer le succès des actions préventives ou curatives déjà entreprises ? Où en est la lutte contre cette infection et quelles sont les recommandations nécessaires à son éradication ? Cette expertise collégiale menée par l’IRD, réalisée par une quinzaine de chercheurs à la demande du ministère de la Santé du Mali et de l’Institut d’ophtalmologie tropicale d’Afrique (Mali), s’attache à décrire l’état actuel de la lutte contre cette conjonctivite cécitante d’origine infectieuse. En dressant le bilan des stratégies déjà à l’œuvre, notamment celle du programme CHANCE de l’OMS, cette expertise cherche à définir les conditions et les perspectives de cette maladie.

    Description: This book is relevant to architects, urban designers, planners, and policy makers concerned with enhancing climate-sensitive urban form and planning. It discusses building and neighborhood design: layout and design features that maximize energy efficiency and thermal comfort without compromising the ability of other buildings to enjoy similar benefits; the use of interstitial spaces (piazzas, streets, and parks) to improve the microclimate at the neighbourhood-level; design intervention case studies; innovative uses of interstitial spaces to improve the local climate at the neighborhood level; and urban radiative cooling solutions to mitigate the unintended climate consequences of urban growth and suggestions for ways forward.

    Description: The recent successes of machine learning, especially regarding systems based on deep neural networks, have encouraged further research activities and raised a new set of challenges in understanding and designing complex machine learning algorithms. New applications require learning algorithms to be distributed, have transferable learning results, use computation resources efficiently, convergence quickly on online settings, have performance guarantees, satisfy fairness or privacy constraints, incorporate domain knowledge on model structures, etc. A new wave of developments in statistical learning theory and information theory has set out to address these challenges. This Special Issue, "Machine Learning and Information Theory", aims to collect recent results in this direction reflecting a diverse spectrum of visions and efforts to extend conventional theories and develop analysis tools for these complex machine learning systems.

    Description: Les grands corps de l’État n’ont pas toujours bonne presse, mais, en même temps, ils fascinent. Créé au XVIIIe siècle, le corps des Mines n’a cessé de contribuer à la construction économique du pays. Passés par l’École polytechnique et l’École des mines, les ingénieurs du corps ont surveillé et, souvent, directement encadré les secteurs de l’industrie et de l’énergie. Ils ont également joué un rôle éminent dans le domaine scientifique, leurs contributions allant des sciences « dures » (mathématiques et physique, avec Henri Poincaré, chimie avec Henry Le Chatelier) à l’économie, avec Maurice Allais, le seul Français ayant reçu le prix Nobel d’économie, et aussi la sociologie, avec Frédéric Le Play, considéré comme l’un des précurseurs de cette discipline. Industriel dans son essence, industrialiste dans son esprit, ce corps de fonctionnaires a souvent adopté des approches libérales, mais, a contrario, il a souvent impulsé un patriotisme économique de bon aloi dans le cadre de « grands programmes » d’État. Il restait à la richesse de cette expérience, à la fois technique, scientifique et administrative, à se constituer en histoire, à se « conscientiser ». Telle était l’ambition du colloque dont les actes sont présentés dans ce volume. Organisé dans le cadre de la célébration du deux centième anniversaire du décret du 18 novembre 1810 qui a organisé le « Corps impérial des Ingénieurs des Mines », ce colloque historique s’est attaché à mettre en lumière le rôle joué au service de la France par ces hauts fonctionnaires à formation scientifique et technique.

    Description: L'épistémologie sociale est une analyse de la dimension sociale de la connaissance. Son point de départ est le constat que bien des phénomènes ne nous sont connus que par l'intermédiaire des autres et donc que la connaissance a non seulement des sources directes, celles auxquelles le sujet a lui-même accès, mais aussi des sources indirectes reposant sur la confiance ou sur l'autorité accordée à autrui. Elle s'intéresse donc aux conditions de la transmission de l'information venant d'autrui, et aux relations de confiance et d'autorité épistémiques, notamment dans le domaine des sciences. Mais ses préoccupations sont plus larges et concernent tout ce qui a trait à la dimension sociale de la connaissance: la construction, au cours d'interactions, de justifications recevables ou acceptables; les modes ordinaires de pensée et de raisonnement; ou encore les relations de coopération et de collaboration dans une « communauté épistémique ». De plus elle reprend des questions qui étaient au cœur de la théorie durkeimienne de la connaissance, celle par exemple des croyances collectives, ou l'idée d'un sujet collectif du savoir. Par là elle se rapproche des social studies of science, tout en s'en distinguant par l'adoption d'un point de vue normatif et par le refus du relativisme. Ce volume présente un ensemble de recherches représentatives de ces différentes préoccupations. Elles ont en commun de reconnaître la spécificité de l'idée de normes de la connaissance, et, s'agissant de concevoir la dimension sociale de celle-ci, de se garder des formes radicales de holisme, pour lesquelles les groupes sociaux sont des entités sui generis.

    Description: The gas phase direct hydroxylation of benzene into phenol with hydrogen and oxygen, as initially described by Niwa in 2002, was realized in a newly developed double-membrane reactor. In the concept described by Niwa, a dense Pd membrane is used for the (safe) dosage of dissociated hydrogen species into the tubular reaction zone, where it reacts with gas phase oxygen to form surface species capable of directly converting benzene into phenol in a single-step process.

    Description: Dans son acception classique, dite républicaine, l'espace public traverse une crise dont beaucoup pensent qu'il ne s'en remettra pas. Menacé aussi dans ses manifestations matérielles par la violence, l'Insécurité et les divers communautarismes ou replis sur soi, l'espace public ne semble plus pouvoir répondre aux attentes dont il avait fait l'objet par l'intermédiaire de l'aménagement. Cet ouvrage prend le contre-pied de ces Interprétations, en montrant que, loin d'avoir perdu de sa pertinence, la préoccupation pour l'espace public demeure essentielle pour affronter les défis posés par la société contemporaine, dans la mesure où la réflexion est constamment ramenée à la spatialité qui en fonde l'Intérêt et la portée. Une approche renouvelée de l'espace public est Ici proposée, qui se déploie en associant étroitement trois composantes : la matérialité, la politique, l'action, car nos analyses ne peuvent plus faire l'économie de les considérer séparément. Sa mise à l'épreuve de grands enjeux contemporains montre que l'on peut parler tout autant de régressions que d'émergences.

    Description: C’est sur un espace utilisé depuis la fin du ixe siècle, occupé aux environs de l’an mil par une étonnante construction de bois à sol de béton et à vocation funéraire, que s’implante au xiie siècle la nouvelle cuisine de l’abbaye Saint-Philibert de Tournus. Lié au réfectoire voisin, le bâtiment empiète à l’époque sur des niveaux de circulation extérieure. Sa conception architecturale est ambitieuse, avec un plan centré sur un octogone entouré de vastes cheminées à contrecœur semi-circulaire qui évoque des modèles de l’ouest de la France - disparus pour la plupart, à l’exception ou presque de la cuisine de Fontevraud en Anjou. Toutefois, au contraire de ces exemples connus uniquement pour leur architecture, c’est la conservation en place des dépôts d’utilisation intérieurs, compressés à force d’accumulation et de piétinements, qui fait la richesse du spécimen tournusien, illustrant de façon saisissante le quotidien de cette cuisine jusqu’au milieu du xvie siècle. Pendant quatre siècles, c’est autour de grandes langues de cendres témoignant d’une cuisson dans la braise, étalées depuis les quatre foyers jusqu’au milieu de la pièce, que se concentre l’essentiel de l’activité. Les postes de préparation sont trahis par autant de tas de déchets spécialisés : coquilles d’œufs, fragments d’os, écailles de poisson… Une conduite d’eau et un drain de pierres traversent la pièce, portiques ou paravents de bois sont déplacés sans cesse. La permanence de déchets de consommation carnée sur le même site depuis la fin du ixe siècle, l’abondance des restes de poisson dans la cuisine, permettent de retracer l’évolution de l’approvisionnement et de l’alimentation des moines et de leurs familiers laïcs. Quant aux nombreux fragments de poteries, également présents depuis les premiers niveaux, ils offrent sur huit siècles, avec d’autres sites tournusiens, un référentiel de productions en usage dans la région. À cela s’ajoutent quelques restes d’ustensiles en métal, verre ou pierre, tels cette probable tête de robinet des xiie/xiiie siècles ou ce mortier décoré du xive, retrouvé cassé au fond d’une cheminée : ils éclairent, plus ponctuellement, d’autres aspects de la préparation culinaire ou du service de la table. De tout point de vue, en plein contexte monastique, le matériel recueilli trahit les usages d’une population aristocratique. Tels sont les apports d’une fouille minutieuse à l’emplacement de cet édifice crucial de l’abbaye médiévale, un peu oublié à Tournus depuis sa destruction au xviie siècle, mais ressuscité par cet ouvrage finement documenté.

    Description: Les vecteurs des agents du paludisme ou de la leishmaniose, rencontrés lors de voyages dans les régions à climat chaud, s'ajoutant à la transmission par le moustique tigre (Aedes albopictus) des virus chikungunya et de la dengue dans le sud de la France, ont montré l'intérêt d'une réflexion approfondie sur la protection personnelle antivectorielle. En cas d'épidémie, nos concitoyens se protègent individuellement en se procurant sur le marché tout un arsenal de moyens où le meilleur côtoie le pire. Pour donner à chacun des informations sur l'efficacité et l'innocuité de ces moyens de protection, la Société de médecine des voyages et la Société française de parasitologie ont initié cette étude qui a pris la forme de « Recommandations de bonne pratique », en suivant le schéma élaboré par la Haute Autorité de santé. Cet ouvrage rassemble ainsi toutes les données pertinentes, validées et mises en forme pour être utilisées non seulement par les personnels de santé (médecins, pharmaciens, infirmiers), mais aussi par les agents touristiques ainsi que par les particuliers pour se protéger des nuisances et des maladies à vecteurs qui constituent de préoccupants problèmes de santé publique.

    Description: Les hauts-plateaux méridionaux du Viêt Nam et du Cambodge connaissent depuis le milieu des années 2000 une forte augmentation des superficies plantées en hévéa. Les booms de l’hévéaculture diffèrent significativement de part et d’autre de la frontière, mais ils sont également étroitement liés dans le contexte d’une intégration régionale des filières et des territoires qui se renforce. Cette transformation est impulsée par le jeu des marchés globalisés et de puissants acteurs étrangers tels que la Chine et la Malaisie, mais les gouvernements nationaux jouent également un rôle important en matière d’accès et d’usage des terres agricoles. L’or blanc et les nouveaux eldorados ne sont pas qu’un enjeu économique ; sont également en jeu les influences et les rapports de force entre les pays de la sous-région du Grand Mékong, à l’image des importantes transactions foncières transnationales. Pour mieux comprendre la transition agraire actuelle impulsée par le boom de l’hévéa, les auteurs de cet ouvrage ont tenu à revenir sur l’histoire, l’époque de la colonisation européenne et les expériences socialistes.

    Description: Retraites des salariés intermittents des spectacles : plus de bénéficiaires pour des pensions moins importantes au fil des générations Près de 14 000 retraités des spectacles perçoivent aujourd’hui une pension de retraite au terme d’un parcours professionnel marqué par l’intermittence. Depuis 1989, le nombre de retraités des spectacles a fortement progressé, suivant en cela l’évolution des effectifs intermittents au cours des trente dernières années. Les intermittents des spectacles dépendent du régime général pour leur retraite de base et disposent d’une retraite complémentaire, servie par Audiens. Les retraités des spectacles prennent en moyenne leur retraite à 62 ans, et l’immense majorité d’entre eux (93 %) bénéficient d’une pension de retraite générale à taux plein. En 2009, le montant annuel moyen de la pension totale versée aux anciens salariés intermittents des spectacles est de 18 180 euros, soit 1 520 euros mensuels. Le montant moyen des pensions totales diminue, du fait de l’érosion des retraites de base et complémentaires dont le montant baisse à mesure que les flux d’entrée en jouissance de la retraite se succèdent. Un nouveau retraité de 2009 touche ainsi une pension inférieure de 10 % à celle d’un nouveau retraité de 1999. La baisse de la pension de base s’explique essentiellement par la diminution du salaire annuel de référence servant de base au calcul de son montant. Les retraites complémentaires, gérées par des institutions différentes selon la catégorie professionnelle (Agirc pour les cadres, Arcco pour les artistes et non cadres) évoluent de façon plus contrastée. Si elles diminuent globalement, elles s’améliorent pour certaines catégories comme les artistes, jouant ainsi un effet compensateur de la baisse de la pension de base. Enfin, l’évolution des retraites sur vingt ans révèle de profondes inégalités non seulement intergénérationnelles mais aussi interprofessionnelles et de genre : les retraites totales des artistes et des non-cadres ayant pris leur retraite en 2009 sont inférieures de près de 13 000 euros annuels à celles des cadres. En outre, les femmes intermittentes des spectacles partent généralement à la retraite un peu plus tard que les hommes et touchent des pensions d’un montant inférieur, ce qui reflète des différences de carrières salariales défavorables aux femmes. On relève toutefois une réduction des inégalités de genre à la retraite, liées davantage à une dégradation des pensions des hommes qu’à une amélioration de celles des femmes.

    Description: Très souvent méconnue ou mésestimée dans ses effets les plus graves, la transphobie regroupe de nombreuses discriminations dont sont victimes les transidentités, qu'elles se définissent comme transgenres, transsexuelles ou en tant qu'identités alternatives. Les données recueillies lors d'un travail d'enquêtes et d'entretiens laissent entrevoir que l'acte transphobe peut aussi bien être le fait de la personne lambda que des institutions censées protéger les personnes. Quels sont les mécanismes à l'œuvre ? Quelle est la part du social, du politique voire du culturel dans ce qui concoure à la disqualification de l'autre et de la différence ? Cet ouvrage propose un état des lieux de la question en France et des pistes de réflexion à la lumière des Sciences Humaines et Sociales, tout en relayant et en analysant les témoignages sans ambiguïtés du quotidien des personnes concernées. Une sociologie de la transphobie est un travail de recherche qui pose des questions et propose des pistes de réflexions comme autant de réponses possibles aux processus de discriminations.

    Description: Ce livre part d’un double constat : les chercheurs en sciences sociales comme les créateurs peinent de plus en plus à saisir et à déchiffrer le monde contemporain dans sa globalité. Le renouvellement de leurs concepts, de leurs méthodes et de leurs pratiques ne suffit plus à assurer leur pérennité. Face à cette impasse, Boris Grésillon propose une piste originale : et si la rencontre, l’entrelacement voire l’hybridation des sciences sociales et des arts leur permettaient de dépasser leurs limites et d’échafauder ensemble de nouveaux protocoles de travail, d’imaginer d’autres problématiques, d’inventer un langage commun ? Et si le pas de deux des arts et des sciences s’avérait scientifiquement fécond ? L’auteur explore cette hypothèse et la soumet à un examen théorique, pratique et opérationnel. Il en ressort un essai foisonnant, basé sur un corpus renouvelé autant que sur des récits concrets de rencontres fructueuses entre artistes et chercheurs.

    Description: Dans le cadre d’une réflexion plus large, menée depuis quelques années, sur le statut et la fonction des sites d’habitat hallstattiens du Nord-Est de la France, il a paru indispensable d’accéder à une meilleure approche comparative de la chronologie des sites, en même temps qu’à une meilleure caractérisation de leur niveau économique et de leurs activités, par le biais de la catégorie de mobilier archéologique la plus largement commune à tous les sites d’habitat protohistoriques : la céramique. Du fait des disparités constatées dans le niveau d’étude de la céramique de chaque site, la comparaison s’avérait a priori difficile, et il a donc fallu mettre au point un système descriptif et analytique normalisé, dans lequel puissent s’intégrer, malgré leur diversité, les données relatives aux corpus céramiques de tous nos gisements. Le choix s’est porté, pour chaque région, sur les corpus les mieux documentés ou les plus représentatifs pour chacune des phases. Les sites retenus correspondent presque tous à des fouilles récentes et ont été explorés pour la plupart dans le cadre d’opérations préventives. Un peu moins de quarante sites ont ainsi été recensés. Même s’il n’a pas l’ambition de se constituer comme un répertoire intégral du matériel céramique du premier Âge du Fer en Alsace et Lorraine, l’ouvrage que nous présentons doit permettre un accès rapide et facile à l’évolution morphologique et technique du mobilier et à la datation des sites. Nous proposons donc dans un premier temps une analyse des tendances évolutives, forme par forme, ainsi qu’une étude de l’évolution des décors. Nous tentons ensuite un bilan par grandes phases chronologiques (BF IIIb, Ha C, Ha D1, Ha D2-D3, LT A) et par régions, qui s’achève par un commentaire raisonné sur l’évolution de la céramique, ses grandes innovations, ses grandes césures, ainsi que sur la possibilité de mieux caractériser des faciès culturels régionaux.

    Description: Eating Disorders have traditionally been considered apart from public health concerns about increasing obesity. It is evident that these problems are, however, related in important ways. Comorbid obesity and eating disorder is increasing at a faster rate than either obesity or eating disorders alone and one in five people with obesity also presents with an Eating Disorder, commonly but not limited to Binge Eating Disorder. New disorders have emerged such as normal weight or Atypical Anorexia Nervosa. However research and practice too often occurs in parallel with a failure to understand the weight disorder spectrum and consequences of co-morbidity that then contributes to poorer outcomes for people living with a larger size and an Eating Disorder. Urgently needed are trials that will inform more effective assessment, treatment and care where body size and eating disorder symptoms are both key to the research question.

    Description: Epilepsy is one of the most prevalent neurological disorders and is characterized by recurrent seizures resulting from abnormal neuronal excitability in the central nervous system. Despite the availability of thirty-six antiseizure medications, about one-third of patients with epilepsy do not respond to the pharmacological treatment and develop a so-called “pharmaco-resistant epilepsy” or “refractory epilepsy.” Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel, effective therapies based on novel mechanisms underlying neuronal excitability that leads to seizures. This reprint’s original research papers and review articles highlight unknown mechanisms underlying pharmaco-resistant resistant epilepsy, epileptogenesis, and seizure suppression.

    Description: Many people are increasingly concerned about economic inequality within their own nations, or between wealthy nations and poor ones. But is today's vast economic inequality best addressed by appeals to ethics, by altering social structures such as taxes and laws, or some combination of the two approaches? This volume brings together leading scholars from across the disciplines who believe today's extreme economic inequality threatens human flourishing and who are determined to address it using their own disciplinary tools. The broadly interdisciplinary volume incorporates contributions from fields as varied as theology, philosophy, economics, education, social work, sociology and law. Our work together illustrates how incorporating a variety of perspectives in a conversation enriches religious and ethical reflection on a significant social ill, and how quantitative and secular fields can help offer practical solutions to contemporary ethical problems.

    Description: Que se passe-t-il lorsque des parents ne sont pas en mesure d'assurer des conditions adéquates au développement ou au bien-être de leur enfant ? Comment les autorités et services concernés agissent-ils ? Quels sont les difficultés, les obstacles ou les résistances - institutionnels ou privés ? Comment les différentes instances collaborent-elles dans ce domaine ? La protection de l'enfance doit faire face à diverses situations de mise en danger ; dans de telles circonstances, le code civil suisse oblige l'État à créer des conditions garantissant le bien-être de l'enfant. Or, cela ne se passe pas sans dilemme, sans hésitation ni doute. Une équipe de chercheurs issue du domaine travail social de la HES Lucerne et de la faculté de droit de l'Université de Genève s'est penchée sur ces questions dans le cadre du Programme National de Recherche (PNR-52), « L'enfance, la jeunesse et les relations entre générations dans une société en mutation ». Au moyen d'une étude sociologique, les auteurs comparent quatre dispositifs de mise en œuvre de la protection de l'enfance en Suisse alémanique et en Suisse romande. Ils mettent ainsi en lumière les effets des structures institutionnelles sur les procédures et sur la mise en place des mesures de protection. Chaque analyse est enrichie de regards critiques de praticiens de la protection de l'enfance. Combinant approches théorique et empirique, La protection de l'enfance : gestion de l'incertitude et du risque s'attache à analyser comment services sociaux et autorités de tutelles abordent les risques constitués par l'obligation d'agir dans une double incertitude : celle liée au développement de l'enfant et celle liée aux conséquences de l'intervention étatique dans la sphère familiale.

    Description: Les nécropoles de l’ancienne Kition (sous la ville moderne de Larnaca) ont fait l’objet de nombreuses fouilles depuis le xixe siècle : aux recherches d’antiquités ont succédé des fouilles d’urgence, sans qu’aucune exploration toutefois n’ait pu se faire de façon programmée, avec les méthodes de l’analyse stratigraphique et anthropologique. Entre 2012 et 2014, la mission archéologique de Kition a conduit des fouilles systématiques dans une des nécropoles de l’âge du Fer de la ville, au lieu-dit Pervolia. Programmée dans le cadre d’une étude générale de la topographie urbaine à l’âge du Fer, cette fouille a permis de conduire une étude exhaustive, à la fois à l’échelle du site (occupation diachronique de l’espace) et à celle de la tombe (architecture, cycle d’utilisation, pratiques funéraires). Les résultats de ces travaux occupent la majeure partie de ce volume, que complètent la publication du matériel de tombes découvertes lors de fouilles plus anciennes sur le même site et celle des fouilles d’urgence réalisées par le Département des Antiquités de Chypre en 2012 dans une autre nécropole de la ville, au lieu-dit Tourapi. Le volume est dirigé par Anna Cannavò, Sabine Fourrier et Alexandre Rabot, en collaboration avec Anna Satraki pour la publication des fouilles de Kition-Tourapi. Plusieurs spécialistes ont bien voulu apporter leur concours : Fabien Belhaoues, Rémi Corbineau, Nathalie Delhopital, Nathalia Denninger, Lluis Garcia Petit, Armelle Gardeisen, Anna Georgiadou, Evangéline Markou, Maria A. Socratous et Prisca Vareilles. Les archives scientifiques de la fouille de la mission à Kition-Pervolia sont consultables en libre accès sur le portail chypre.mom.fr, développé par Bruno Morandière (MOM).

    Description: With the announcement of the European Green Deal, which defines a set of policy initiatives aimed at achieving a 50–55% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and making Europe climate neutral in 2050, the challenge of energy transition becomes even more critical. The transformation of national energy systems towards sustainability is progressing throughout all Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries, yet the goals and results are different. Most EU Member States have made substantial progress towards meeting their long-term commitments of emissions reductions. However, some bloc members have struggled to meet their obligations. An effective energy transition requires the introduction of appropriately designed policy instruments and of robust economic analyses that ensure the best possible outcomes at the lowest costs for society. In this context, this Special Issue aims to bring into the discussion the challenges that CEE countries have to face and overcome while undergoing energy transition.

    Description: Animal production (e.g., milk, meat, and eggs) provides valuable protein production for human beings and animals. However, animal production is facing several challenges worldwide such as environmental impacts and animal welfare/health concerns. In animal farming operations, accurate and efficient monitoring of animal information and behavior can help analyze the health and welfare status of animals and identify sick or abnormal individuals at an early stage to reduce economic losses and protect animal welfare. In recent years, there has been growing interest in animal welfare. At present, sensors, big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence are used to improve management efficiency, reduce production costs, and enhance animal welfare. Although these technologies still have challenges and limitations, the application and exploration of these technologies in animal farms will greatly promote the intelligent management of farms. Therefore, this Special Issue will collect original papers with novel contributions based on technologies such as sensors, big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to study animal behavior monitoring and recognition, environmental monitoring, health evaluation, etc., to promote intelligent and accurate animal farm management.

    Description: This work presents two image-based inspection approaches for the quality evaluation of cylinder bore surfaces. In the first algorithm, metal folds on plateau-honed surfaces are inspected with scanning electron microscopy. An edge-aware structure tensor is proposed for feature extraction and localization of surface defects. The second algorithm uses a morphgraphical method for detecting graphite grains in optical micrographs. Based on the inspection results, quality parameters are proposed.

    Description: Du savon de Marseille emballé à l’ancienne aux vestes en tweed provenant de l’île Harris, en passant par les fromages au lait cru fabriqués dans une usine moderne, dix carrières d’objets nous entraînent ici au cœur des mécanismes subtils de l’innovation et de l’emprunt techniques. Ethnologues et sociologues nous montrent à travers ces exemples, parfois cocasses, les réseaux nécessaires à l’adaptation ou à la réactivation de ces objets. Ces « milieux techniques favorables » incluent ces passeurs et traducteurs que sont les inventeurs, les artistes, les élus, les aménageurs, les conservateurs et tous ceux auxquels la société confie le rôle de codifier, de promouvoir, de contrôler et d’authentifier processus et produits. Pour nous faire entrer de plain pied dans ces singulières histoires contemporaines, les chercheurs ont dû sortir de leurs rassurantes insularités disciplinaires et se confronter à cet apparent paradoxe de nos sociétés qui, en un même mouvement, revendiquent la tradition et promeuvent l’innovation. En prêtant une attention renouvelée aux usages et aux manipulations symboliques des objets, en les replaçant dans les contextes - mutations économiques et relances, emblématisation et patrimonialisation - qui leur donnent sens, les travaux présentés dans ce livre apportent une contribution originale au renouvellement d’une anthropologie de la culture matérielle d’aujourd’hui.

    Description: De nombreux organismes sont composés de parties répétées, identiques ou modifiées (segments de vers de terre, vertèbres, etc.). Ce mode d’organisation fait l’objet depuis la fin du XVIIIe siècle, de nombreuses interrogations de la part des biologistes : quelle est sa signification anatomique, comment se met-il en place lors de l’embryogenèse, que peut-on en déduire sur l’évolution des espèces, etc. ? Ce livre retrace l’histoire de ces questionnements, des théories et des concepts qu’ils ont suscités depuis deux siècles. Il montre que ce problème de la répétition des parties n’a cessé d’occuper une position centrale, au carrefour de plusieurs disciplines biologiques, et ce jusqu’à nos jours.
