Book excerpt: Découvrez l'oeuvre révolutionnaire qui a transformé le monde du travail et de la gestion: Les Principes de l'organisation scientifique du travail de Frederick Winslow Taylor. Ce livre pionnier, publié pour la première fois en 1911, propose une approche méthodique et scientifique de la gestion des entreprises et de l'organisation du travail. Taylor, souvent considéré comme le père du management scientifique, dévoile des méthodes innovantes pour améliorer l'efficacité et la productivité, des concepts qui restent plus pertinents que jamais dans notre monde moderne. Taylor commence par exposer les problèmes fondamentaux du travail manuel et de la gestion inefficace, soulignant la nécessité d'une révolution industrielle qui repose non seulement sur la technologie, mais aussi sur une compréhension approfondie des processus de travail. Il propose une série de principes visant à optimiser chaque aspect de la production et à établir une relation harmonieuse entre les employés et la direction. Au coeur de sa théorie se trouve l'idée de remplacer les méthodes empiriques et improvisées par des techniques standardisées, fondées sur des études minutieuses de temps et de mouvements. Taylor démontre que, grâce à une planification rigoureuse, à la formation adéquate des travailleurs et à la décomposition des tâches en gestes simples et répétitifs, il est possible d'augmenter considérablement la productivité tout en réduisant la fatigue des employés. L'une des contributions majeures de Taylor est la division du travail et la spécialisation des tâches, permettant ainsi à chaque travailleur de devenir un expert dans son domaine spécifique. Cette spécialisation, associée à une supervision étroite et à des incitations financières, crée un environnement où l'efficacité est maximisée et les coûts minimisés. Taylor ne se contente pas de théoriser; il illustre ses principes par des études de cas et des exemples concrets tirés de son expérience pratique dans l'industrie. Des usines de fabrication aux ateliers de montage, ses méthodes ont été appliquées avec succès, prouvant leur valeur indéniable. Ces exemples montrent comment une gestion scientifique peut conduire à des améliorations spectaculaires de la production et de la rentabilité. Mais Les Principes de l'organisation scientifique du travail est bien plus qu'un manuel technique. C'est une réflexion profonde sur la nature du travail humain et sur la manière dont les entreprises peuvent créer un environnement de travail plus efficace et plus satisfaisant. Taylor plaide pour une coopération étroite entre la direction et les ouvriers, où chacun comprend et accepte son rôle dans le processus de production. Il propose également un système de rémunération basé sur la performance, incitant les travailleurs à atteindre des niveaux d'efficacité plus élevés.

Download or read book Capitalism Socialism Ecology written by André Gorz and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this major new book, Andre Gorz expands on the political implications of his prescient and influential Paths to Paradise and Critique of Economic Reason. Against the background of technological developments which have transformed the nature of work and the structure of the workforce, Gorz explores the new political agendas facing both left and right. Each is in disarray: the right, torn between the demands of capital and the 'traditional values' of its supporters, can only offer illusory solutions, while the left either capitulates to these or remains tempted by regressive, 'fundamentalist' projects inappropriate to complex modern societies. Identifying the grave risks posed by a dual society with a hyperactive minority of full-time workers confronting a silenced majority who are, at best, precariously employed, Gorz proposes a new definition of a key social conflict within Western societies in terms of the distribution of work and the form and content of non-working time. Taking into account changing cultural attitudes to work, he re-examines socialism's historical project-which, he contends, has always properly been to lay down the rules and limits within which economic raitonality may be permitted to function, not to create some statist, productivist countersystem. Above all, he offers a vital fresh perspective for the left, whose objective, in his view, must be to extend the sphere to autonomous human activity, and increase the possibilities for individual self-fulfilment.
Download or read book Vulnerable written by Colleen M. Flood and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, has infected people in 212 countries so far and on every continent except Antarctica. Vast changes to our home lives, social interactions, government functioning and relations between countries have swept the world in a few months and are difficult to hold in one’s mind at one time. That is why a collaborative effort such as this edited, multidisciplinary collection is needed. This book confronts the vulnerabilities and interconnectedness made visible by the pandemic and its consequences, along with the legal, ethical and policy responses. These include vulnerabilities for people who have been harmed or will be harmed by the virus directly and those harmed by measures taken to slow its relentless march; vulnerabilities exposed in our institutions, governance and legal structures; and vulnerabilities in other countries and at the global level where persistent injustices harm us all. Hopefully, COVID-19 will forces us to deeply reflect on how we govern and our policy priorities; to focus preparedness, precaution, and recovery to include all, not just some. Published in English with some chapters in French.

Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Download or read book Statistical Approaches to Measurement Invariance written by Roger E. Millsap and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the statistical procedures used to detect measurement bias. Measurement bias is examined from a general latent variable perspective so as to accommodate different forms of testing in a variety of contexts including cognitive or clinical variables, attitudes, personality dimensions, or emotional states. Measurement models that underlie psychometric practice are described, including their strengths and limitations. Practical strategies and examples for dealing with bias detection are provided throughout. The book begins with an introduction to the general topic, followed by a review of the measurement models used in psychometric theory. Emphasis is placed on latent variable models, with introductions to classical test theory, factor analysis, and item response theory, and the controversies associated with each, being provided. Measurement invariance and bias in the context of multiple populations is defined in chapter 3 followed by chapter 4 that describes the common factor model for continuous measures in multiple populations and its use in the investigation of factorial invariance. Identification problems in confirmatory factor analysis are examined along with estimation and fit evaluation and an example using WAIS-R data. The factor analysis model for discrete measures in multiple populations with an emphasis on the specification, identification, estimation, and fit evaluation issues is addressed in the next chapter. An MMPI item data example is provided. Chapter 6 reviews both dichotomous and polytomous item response scales emphasizing estimation methods and model fit evaluation. The use of models in item response theory in evaluating invariance across multiple populations is then described, including an example that uses data from a large-scale achievement test. Chapter 8 examines item bias evaluation methods that use observed scores to match individuals and provides an example that applies item response theory to data introduced earlier in the book. The book concludes with the implications of measurement bias for the use of tests in prediction in educational or employment settings. A valuable supplement for advanced courses on psychometrics, testing, measurement, assessment, latent variable modeling, and/or quantitative methods taught in departments of psychology and education, researchers faced with considering bias in measurement will also value this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the late 1970s and 1980s, "cancer" underwent a remarkable transformation. In one short decade, what had long been a set of heterogeneous diseases marked by uncontrolled cell growth became a disease of our genes. How this happened and what it means is the story Joan Fujimura tells in a rare inside look at the way science works and knowledge is created. A dramatic study of a new species of scientific revolution, this book combines a detailed ethnography of scientific thought, an in-depth account of science practiced and produced, a history of one branch of science as it entered the limelight, and a view of the impact of new genetic technologies on science and society. The scientific enterprise that Fujimura unfolds for us is proto-oncogene cancer research--the study of those segments of DNA now thought to make normal cells cancerous. Within this framework, she describes the processes of knowledge construction as a social enterprise, an endless series of negotiations in which theories, material technologies, and practices are co-constructed, incorporated, and refashioned. Along the way, Fujimura addresses long-standing questions in the history and philosophy of science, culture theory, and sociology of science: How do scientists create "good" problems, experiments, and solutions? What are the cultural, institutional, and material technologies that have to be in place for new truths and new practices to succeed? Portraying the development of knowledge as a multidimensional process conducted through multiple cultures, institutions, actors, objects, and practices, this book disrupts divisions among sociology, history, anthropology, and the philosophy of science, technology, and medicine.
