This book was released on 2023-10-22 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette publication est certainement la toute premiere grande syntese tematique et critique sur la condition des personnes socialement vulnérables (PSV) en Afrique.

Les differentes contributions sont assorties des recommandations fortes qui interpellent, pour leur application les détenteurs d'enjeu dans une démarche de co-construction pour une citovennete de transtormation active C'est un document de plaidoyer/réquisitoire et de lobbying en faveur de l'aménagement, de la protection et de l'amélioration des conditions sociales des personnes âgées et des personnes handicapées en Afrique autant en matière de santé, d'alimentation, de logement. denvironnement, de protection sociale. que de maintien de revenu. d emplo et denseignement. eu egard a raugmentation croissante de leurs effectts en valeu relative et absolue. a question des personnes socialement vulnerables est ainsi mist en avant-garde des préoccunations politico-sociales et scientifiques importantes voir permanentes. tlle tait robiet d'investigations et de réflexions récurrentes au sein d mecanisme soecia de Union Africaine au est le groupe de raval sur les personnes agee! et les personnes handicapées de la Commission Africaine des Droits de l'Homme et des Peuples. L'assignation matinale et originaire étant de construire des véhicules juridiques psychologiques, socio-antropologiques et portiques afin a amorcer un changement positit et une protection durable des oS. ainsi que des protocoles coutumiers pour leu valorisation dans les cultures et traditions atricaines This publication is certainly the first major thematic and critical synthesis on the condition of socially vulnerable persons (PSV) in Africa. An excellent line-up of 40 experts and institutions from different countries of the continent is making an effort to understand this phenomenon, which has become worrying, through a complex, retrospective, factual, current, quantified, punctual, prospective and relatively exhaustive analytical inventory. The various contributions are accompanied by strong recommendations that challenge the holders of issues for their application in a process of co-construction for an active citizenship of transformation. It is a document of advocacy/indictment and lobbying in favor of the development, protection and improvement of the social conditions of the elderly and persons with disabilities in Africa in terms of health, food, housing, environment, social protection, income maintenance, employment and education, given their increasing numbers in relative and absolute terms. The issue of socially vulnerable people is thus brought to the forefront of important, if not permanent, political-social and scientific concerns. It is the subject of recurrent investigations and reflections within the special mechanism of the African Union, the Working Group on Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities of the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights. The initial assignment is to build legal, psychological, socio-anthropological and political vehicles in order to initiate positive change and sustainable protection of VHPs, as well as customary protocols for their valorization in African cultures and traditions.

Book Avanc  es en ophtalmologie   apport de la conqu  te spatiale

Download or read book Avanc es en ophtalmologie apport de la conqu te spatiale written by CORBÉ Christian and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’aventure spatiale a imposé une connaissance approfondie des mécanismes d’interface entre l’homme et un environnement hostile. Elle a mis en évidence la complexité du système visuel, son intégration avec les autres sens et la place essentielle des facteurs que sont l’attention, la cognition et la représentation mentale. La vision est donc apparue non seulement comme une fonction dédiée à un organe particulier, mais surtout comme une des fonctions nécessaires à la survie d’un organisme entier. Fruit d’une approche pluridisciplinaire, Avancées en ophtalmologie – Apport de la conquête spatiale montre comment la recherche en neurosciences liée aux vols spatiaux habités a permis des progrès remarquables dans le domaine des spécialités de la vision. Cet ouvrage relate également une aventure médicale et précise les bases physio-pathogéniques qui ont contribué à la structuration médicalisée du concept de malvoyance, puis à sa prise en charge et à son enseignement. Il s’adresse non seulement à l’ensemble des professionnels de la vision, mais aussi aux ergothérapeutes, psychomotriciens, instructeurs en locomotion, psychologues, gériatres, chercheurs, médecins généralistes, etc...

Book The D  j   vu and the Authentic

Download or read book The D j vu and the Authentic written by Jean-Jacques Chardin and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-25 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The correlated concepts of the déjà-vu and the authentic suggest that all cultural productions are per se palimpsests whose construction is the result of such processes as reprise, recycling, and recuperating. Reprise is approached as various forms of citation, reference and intertextuality; recycling is defined as commodification and intellectual impoverishment; while recuperating implies the ideological process that makes reappropriation possible. By covering a wide spectrum of research interests, from literature to music, art and the cinema, the seventeen contributions in English or in French explore the political and ethical implications inherent in the creation of culture.

Book Guide Pratique de la Consultation En G  riatrie

Download or read book Guide Pratique de la Consultation En G riatrie written by Laurence Hugonot-Diener and published by Elsevier Masson. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le vieillissement de la population confronte de plus en plus le praticien aux patients particuliers que sont les sujets âgés. Outre l'examen clinique traditionnel, l'évaluation gérontologique standardisée (EGS) doit rentrer dans la pratique courante de tout généraliste. Cet examen permet d'évaluer l'ensemble des fonctions cognitives, sociales, et l'autonomie fonctionnelle d'un patient. À l'aide des nombreux tests courts et pratiques de diagnostic, cet ouvrage permet au praticien de suivre l'évolution physique et psychique des personnes âgées. Il propose tout d'abord un examen clinique spécifique (évaluation cognitive, thymique, nutritionnelle, de l'équilibre et de la marche, évaluation fonctionnelle et de l'autonomie), puis un état des lieux des pathologies gériatriques, des pathologies neurodégénératives et des troubles du comportement. Cette nouvelle édition présente notamment les outils opposables à PATHOS (outil d'évaluation des états pathologiques en EHPAD) et propose des tests plus spécifiques à l'attention des sujets fragiles afin de dépister suffisamment tôt cette fragilité et un certain nombre de déficits pour mettre en place des attitudes de prévention, de traitement et de prises en charge efficaces. Ce guide s'intègre parfaitement dans la pratique des médecins généralistes, des médecins coordonnateurs en EHPAD et de tous les praticiens dans le suivi de leurs patients âgés.

Book Oeil et Maladies syst  miques

Download or read book Oeil et Maladies syst miques written by SÈVE Pascal, KODJIKIAN Laurent and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les maladies systémiques regroupent un cadre hétérogène de maladies (connectivites, vascularites, granulomatoses…) dont la pathogénie est caractérisée par une atteinte de plusieurs organes. Bien qu’il s’agisse pour la plupart de maladies orphelines, ces pathologies sont susceptibles d’intéresser tous les médecins du fait de leur polymorphisme clinique. L’atteinte ophtalmologique est fréquente dans bon nombre de ces maladies, principalement en rapport avec une atteinte inflammatoire ou vasculaire. Elle constitue souvent une clé pour le diagnostic et peut mettre en jeu le pronostic fonctionnel en raison du risque de cécité. La sémiologie oculaire des maladies systémiques et les moyens d’explorations ophtalmologiques sont souvent mal connus des internistes ou des spécialistes d’organes. Inversement, les maladies systémiques sont l’objet de nombreuses interrogations de la part des ophtalmologistes. De ce constat est né Œil et Maladies systémiques qui présente, en 50 chapitres : • les principaux syndromes ophtalmologiques et les moyens d’explorations, destinés principalement aux non-ophtalmologistes • l’expression ophtalmologique des maladies systémiques (connectivites et vascularites, certaines maladies infectieuses et autres affections multiviscérales) ainsi que les aspects diagnostiques, pronostiques et thérapeutiques. Le professeur Pascal Sève, interniste, et le professeur Laurent Kodjikian, ophtalmologiste, tous deux rattachés à hôpital de la Croix-Rousse à Lyon, ont coordonné l’ouvrage dont les rédacteurs sont issus des diverses spécialités concernées : ophtalmologistes et internistes bien sûr, mais également spécialistes d’organes tels que dermatologues, néphrologues, neurologues, etc., tous référents reconnus dans leur domaine d’expertise. Ce livre apporte des réponses utiles et précises aux praticiens confrontés aux atteintes ophtalmologiques des maladies systémiques. Il intéressera donc les ophtalmologistes, internistes, rhumatologues, neurologues, pneumologues et autres spécialistes d’organes.

Download or read book The Language of Images written by Maria Giulia Dondero and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with two fundamental issues in the semiotics of the image. The first is the relationship between image and observer: how does one look at an image? To answer this question, this book sets out to transpose the theory of enunciation formulated in linguistics over to the visual field. It also aims to clarify the gains made in contemporary visual semiotics relative to the semiology of Roland Barthes and Emile Benveniste. The second issue addressed is the relation between the forces, forms and materiality of the images. How do different physical mediums (pictorial, photographic and digital) influence visual forms? How does materiality affect the generativity of forms? On the forces within the images, the book addresses the philosophical thought of Gilles Deleuze and René Thom as well as the experiment of Aby Warburg’s Atlas Mnemosyne. The theories discussed in the book are tested on a variety of corpora for analysis, including both paintings and photographs, taken from traditional as well as contemporary sources in a variety of social sectors (arts and sciences). Finally, semiotic methodology is contrasted with the computational analysis of large collections of images (Big Data), such as the “Media Visualization” analyses proposed by Lev Manovich and Cultural Analytics in the field of Computer Science to evaluate the impact of automatic analysis of visual forms on Digital Art History and more generally on the image sciences.

Book Event Or Incident

Download or read book Event Or Incident written by Antonius Bernardus Maria Naaijkens and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translations are crucial to the flow of themes, images, forms and ideas across boundaries. They constitute a special case of cultural dynamics as, in a sense, they are existing texts revived in a new form. The introduction of textual works in a target culture involves a high degree of strategy and control. These moments of control, selection and influence deserve special attention in cultural, receptional, and translation-historical studies. The essays in this yearbook address aspects of the central topic: the impact of translations on cultural-historical developments in Europe. First and foremost is the question which works were selected and why, and next which were neglected and why. In a wider scope: what - in the long-term processes of cultural transfer - were the «peaks» or key moments, and of which nature was the discourse accompanying the presence of a foreign-language culture in translation? Why did it all happen like this, and what was the precise impact of the introduction of new works, new ideas, new culture through the medium of translation? These are the questions to which the authors of this work attempt to provide answers. Les traductions ont une importance cruciale quant à la circulation des thèmes, des images, des formes et des idées au-delà des frontières. Elles représentent un cas particulier de dynamique culturelle, insufflant en un sens une nouvelle vie à des textes existant. L'introduction d'oeuvres écrites dans une culture cible suppose un déploiement important de stratégies visant à contrôler ces processus, qui font l'objet d'une attention toute particulière dans les études d'histoire culturelle, de réception, et d'histoire de la traduction. Les études contenues dans ce volume s'intéressent aux différents aspects du sujet principal : l'impact des traductions sur les développements historiques et culturels en Europe. Tout d'abord quelles sont les oeuvres retenues, pourquoi celles-ci et non pas d'autres ? Plus généralement, les auteurs s'intéressent aux moments où l'influence a atteint un apogée dans les processus à longue échéance des transferts culturels et à la nature du discours accompagnant la présence sous forme de traduction d'une culture en langue étrangère. Pourquoi tout cela est-il arrivé de la sorte et quel est l'impact précis de l'introduction d'oeuvres, d'idées, d'une culture nouvelles à travers le medium de la traduction ? Voilà dans tous les cas les questions clés auxquelles les auteurs de cet ouvrage entendent répondre.
