Une justice plus commerciale qu'industrielle ? Comparaison des attentes d'une « bonne justice » en Suisse
Le but de cet article est triple. D'abord, nous identifions les qualités d'une bonne justice en Suisse, telles que défi nies par les différents acteurs qui forment le tribunal au sens large (juges, gestionnaires de tribunaux, avocats, journalistes, politiciens). Deuxièmement, nous vérifions si ces qualités peuvent coexister avec les valeurs véhiculées par le monde managérial (NGP). Enfin, nous évaluons la manière dont elles cohabitent (hybridation, dominance des unes sur les autres, etc.). Pour ce faire, nous avons analysé une série d'entretiens (56) semi-structurés menés dans des tribunaux
de première et seconde instance dans des cours civiles, administratives et criminelles, dans les trois régions linguistiques du pays. Les résultats montrent que les groupes d'acteurs interviewés ont des attentes relativement similaires et qu'elles ne semblent pas être incompatibles avec celles de l'univers managérial. Cependant, lorsqu'ils décrivent la bonne justice, les participants font plus souvent appel à des notions liées au monde commercial qu'au monde industriel contrairement à d'autres études menées auprès d'employés du secteur public suisse, mais dans la lignée de ceux du Québec. L'article ouvre la voie à des recherches ultérieures dont l'objectif sera de tester ces conclusions.
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, we identify the qualities of good justice in Switzerland, as defi ned by the various actors who form the tribunal in a broad sense (judges, court managers, lawyers, journalists, politicians). Second, we verify if these qualities are compatible with the values conveyed by the managerial universe (NPM). Finally, we evaluate how they coexist (hybridization, dominance over each other, etc.). To do this, we analysed a series of semi-structured interviews (56) conducted in tribunals of fi rst and second instance in civil, administrative,and criminal courts in the three linguistic regions of the country. The results show that the groups of actors interviewed have relatively similar expectations that do not seem to be incompatible with those of the managerial world. However, when describing good justice, the participants refer more frequently to concepts related to the commercial than the industrial world, contrary to other Swiss public servants but in line with those of Quebec, as uncovered by former studies. The article opens up the path to further research whose objective will be to test those conclusions

Coordination defects in a-Si and a-Si:H : a characterization from first principles calculations
We study by means of first-principles pseudopotential method the coordination
defects in a-Si and a-Si:H, also in their formation and their evolution upon
hydrogen interaction. An accurate analysis of the valence charge distribution
and of the ``electron localization function'' (ELF) allows to resolve possible
ambiguities in the bonding configuration, and in particular to identify clearly
three-fold (T_3) and five-fold (T_5) coordinated defects. We found that
electronic states in the gap can be associated to both kind of defects, and
that in both cases the interaction with hydrogen can reduce the density of
states in the gap.Comment: To appear in Philos. Ma

What Kind of Justice Today ? Expectations Of 'Good Justice', Convergences And Divergences Between Managerial And Judicial Actors And How They Fit Within Management-Oriented Values
This research aims toward a better understanding of the organizational culture(s) of the judiciary in Switzerland by analysing what 'good justice' means nowadays in this country. It seeks to clarify whether, and to what extent, expectations of 'good justice' of judicial actors (judges without managerial experience) and of managerial actors (court managers) are similar and to describe possible managerial implications that may result from this. As judges are at the heart of the judicial organization and exert a strong influence on other groups of actors (Sullivan, Warren et al. 1994), the congruence of their expectations with those of court managers will be at the centre of the analysis. Additionally, referring to the conceptual worlds of Boltanski and Thévenaut (1991), we analyze how closely these expectations are to management-oriented values. We found that almost half of expectations are common to the two groups examined and the main quoted ones are compatible to new public management (NPM) concepts. On the other hand, those expectations shared exclusively by judges relate to the human side of justice, whereas those specific to court managers focus on the way justice functions
