This book was released on 2024-08-05 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embrassant le défi de la compréhension de l'islam en contexte autour de l'altérité et des normes, l'ouvrage est original à trois égards. Tout d'abord, par son approche trans-historique, où passés et présents sont intimement inter-reliés, éclairant des phénomènes contemporains à travers leurs enracinement et genèse historiques et en mettant en évidence des phénomènes passés dans la perspective, voire la prospective, d'enjeux contemporains. Ensuite, par son approche trans-religieuse et trans-civilisationnelle (en l'occurrence islamo-chrétienne) dans plusieurs chapitres, pour aborder l'islam, dans ses rapports avec les minorités et en tant que minorité lui-même en contexte européen, et, de manière comparée, avec le christianisme: une approche permettant par « expérience-miroir » de contextualiser l'islam, souvent prisonnier de prismes essentialisants. Enfin, l'ouvrage apporte, dans une perspective pluri- et inter-disciplinaire, un état des lieux de l'apport des diverses disciplines qui l'embrassent, à la pointe des connaissances des sciences humaines et sociales de 21e siècle.
Download or read book Humanities and Organizations in Dialogue written by Ghislain Deslandes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-09-20 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Administrative practice and science are currently undergoing a profound reassessment. The terms "stress", "burn-out", or "meaningless jobs" give us an idea of the reasons why the commitment to work is at half-mast today, which is rather worrying for the economic development itself. Faced with the added complexity of various technological, environmental, and geopolitical disruptions, managers are ultimately called upon to completely reinvent the way they work and think. In an attempt to transform our conception of management, the method proposed in Humanities and Organizations in Dialogue: Hermeneutic Inquiries is based on the study of contemporary humanities. Consequently, Ghislain Deslandes comments on numerous essays to provide managers with a unique way of understanding what is happening. The approach reintroduces a measure of philosophical reflexivity into a world where it is all too often absent, in order to understand business administration with new perspectives and new tools, especially in terms of language. It also seeks to better understand how managers should respond, with subtlety and tact, to the socio-economic and environmental challenges facing organizations.
Download or read book Telepresence in Training written by Jean-Luc Rinaudo and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The different forms of telepresence in education, in distance learning, in student support, in the use of learning environments or even at the heart of robot systems, are developed in universities and higher education facilities specializing in professional training. They constitute opportunities to reform arguments and give rise to important questions: how should we think about the hierarchy of presence and absence in these techniques in order to make possible “the presence of the absent”? What is the effect on mediation processes? On the perception of the body and on identity? How does it transform collaborative work? Telepresence in Training brings together research that attempts to answer these questions by using studies and practical supports from higher education, with regards to teacher training and telepresence robots in France, Belgium, Switzerland and Quebec.
Download or read book Interfaces Between the Oral and the Written written by Flora Veit-Wild and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2005 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the African context, there exists the 'myth' that orality means tradition. Written and oral verbal art are often regarded as dichotomies, one excluding the other. While orature is confused with 'tradition', literature is ascribed to modernity. Furthermore, local languages are ignored and literature is equated with writing in foreign languages. The contributions in this volume take issue with such preconceptions and explore the multiple ways in which literary and oral forms interrelate and subvert each other, giving birth to new forms of artistic expression. They emphasize the local agency of the African poet and writer, which resists the global commodification of literature through the international bestseller lists of the cultural industry. The first section traces the movement from oral to written texts, which in many cases coincides with a switch from African to European languages. But as the essays in the section on "New Literary Languages" make clear, in other cases a true philological work is accomplished in the African language to create a new written and literary medium. Through the mixing of languages in the cities, such as the Sheng spoken in Kenya or the bilinguality of a writer such as Cheik Aliou Ndao (Senegal), new idioms for literary expressions evolve. The use of new media, technology or music stimulate the emergence of new genres, such as Taarab in East Africa, radio poetry in Yoruba and Hausa, or Rap in the Senegal, as is shown in the section on "Forms of New Orality." It is a great achievement of this second volume of Versions and Subversions in African Literatures that it assembles contributions by scholars from the anglophone and the francophone world and that it covers literary production in a broad spectrum of languages: English, French, Hausa, Sheng, Sotho, Spanish, Swahili, Wolof and Yoruba. Some of the authors and cultural practitioners treated in detail are: Mobolaij Adenubi, Birago Diop, Boubacar Boris Diop, David Maillu, Thomas Mofolo, Cheik Aliou Ndao, Donato Ndongo-Bidyogo, Hubert Ogunde, Shaaban Robert, Wole Soyinka, Ibrahim YaroYahaya, and Sénouvo Agbota Zinsou.

Download or read book Marketing critique le consommateur collaborateur en question written by COVA and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage est consacré à l'approche dite de marketing critique qui propose un regard décalé sur les discours générés par le marketing et ses alliés tels la sociologie de la consommation, la psychologie du consommateur, etc. Son but est de mettre en lumière dans les discours marketing ce qui relève d'un biais idéologique et non d'une démarche scientifique. Cette approche critique est particulièrement appliquée à la nouvelle logique du marketing, la SDL (Service Dominant Logic) qui donne une place centrale au processus de co-création entre le fournisseur et le consommateur. Le lecteur trouvera dans Marketing critique une panoplie d'idées innovantes qui devrait nourrir une réflexion managériale sur les stratégies permettant aux intervenants de nos sociétés de trouver des solutions novatrices pour répondre à des demandes de services et à des besoins fondamentaux dont celui de l'accès à l'énergie.
Download or read book Adverbial Modification written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Cinquième Colloque de Linguistique Romane/Fifth Colloquium on Romance Linguistics, which was held at Groningen University in September 1998. The theme of the colloquium was ‘adverbial modification in Romance languages'. Therefore, adverbial modification is the common denominator of the works in this volume. However, and interestingly enough, the viewpoints taken by the Various authors differ considerably: some of the works deal with traditional adverbs (Ocampo, Kampers-Manhe, Bok-Bennema, Molendijk), others with elements such as mood (de Jonge, Quer) or negation (de Swart). Degree modification is discussed by Cover and Doetjes. Modifying clauses are the topic of Le Draoulec's article and modifying nominals play a central role in Schroten's contribution. A special type of modification is the pragmatic one, which is represented by Montolio's article. Also, various theoretical approaches are represented in this volume, such as the generative approach (e.g. Kampers-Manhe, Bok-Bennema), formal semantics (Molendijk, De Swart) and functional-cognitive linguistics (Ocampo, De Jonge), among other ones. Moreover, the languages dealt with are Catalan, French, Rumanian and Spanish. Thus, this volume offers a wide perspective on adverbial modification in Romance languages both from a theoretical point of view as from the point of view of the different languages involved.
Download or read book The Human as a Robot or a Biological Organism written by Marcienne Martin and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-09-29 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questioning the meaning and nature of the universe and the living world calls upon all existing fields of research. If the answers to these metaphysical questions have not been provided in a strict sense, their deciphering is constantly updated with the various discoveries that are gradually transforming humankind’s view of the surrounding environment. We are referring here to human consciousness, integrated into the world of reality and experienced as such, and not to consciousness whose normative filter, born of various beliefs, subtracts the most recent scientific advances. The relationship between the binary system and the quaternary system is at the origin of this book, which focuses on the questions: is any unit of living organisms only the result of a given programming? What then of the human being? Are they a robot participating in the living world or a consciousness inscribed in a biological habitat?
Download or read book Assassination of experience by painting Monory written by Jean-François Lyotard and published by Presses Universitaires de Louvain - UCL. This book was released on 2013 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lyotard met Jacques Monory in 1972, and the text on him published at that time was the first that Lyotard dedicated to contemporary art since Discourse, Figure. Lyotard's interest in the plastic arts thus fits fully within the setting of his political preoccupations. The artist-protagonist stages the recurring motifs that fascinate Lyotard: the scene of the crime, the revolver, the woman, the victim, glaciers, deserts, stars. The atmosphere of the essays on Monory is "Californian." Monory's imaginary repertoire goes well beyond the masters of modernity and is in line rather with a "modern contemporary surrealism." Both Lyotard and Monory live the "dilemma of Americanization," the America represented by cinema, fashion, novels, music. It is in this atmosphere that Lyotard and Monory will finally evoke their supreme experience of difference: desire and fear, exultation and a profound malaise. The plastic universe of Monory and the aesthetic meditations of Lyotard are in perfect symbiosis. Sarah Wilson's epilogue thoroughly outlines both the history of a friendship and, at the same time, the intellectual and artistic climate of the 1970s.
Download or read book PROMOTION DE LA SANTE ET AUTONOMISATION DANS LE CONTEXTE AFRICAIN written by David HouŽto and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.
Download or read book Bande Dessin e written by Laurence Grove and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The latest installment of Yale French Studies explores the history and development of bande dessinée, Franco-Belgian comics This special issue of Yale French Studies on bande dessinée is a multifaceted reflection on its newfound academic status. It goes beyond the question, settled long ago, of its artistic legitimacy but aims to think "outside the boxes," or cases, themselves in order to explore the mutually enriching relationship between BD and the wider francophone cultural and intellectual world. Contributions thus intersect with art history, literary theory, cinema studies, postcolonialism, semiotics, and political sociology. Articles are by mainstream interdisciplinary scholars applying themselves to BD, leading authorities on bande dessinée itself, BD artists, and key figures in contemporary French thought whose texts appear in English for the first time.
