Les dispositifs d’éducation à l’image en France : comment résister à l’institutionnalisation pour repenser la démocratie culturelle

L’action culturelle est un secteur où le souci de la réflexion théorique, de la formation et du débat critique se manifeste de longue date, et où l’on se préoccupe aussi de réévaluer les politiques menées et les méthodes utilisées. Cela ne veut pas dire que le secteur échappe aux idées toutes faites, aux conformismes, aux routines, voire aux tentations « réactionnaires ». Les vives réticences d’une partie de la profession aux tentatives de placer les cultures vidéoludiques et multimédiatiques..

Pratiques numériques de chercheurs : reflet de la discipline, l’exemple des sciences de l’éducation

Inspiré de ma thèse intitulée Information scientifique pour la recherche en éducation : analyse comparée de l’offre et des usages entre la France et le Royaume-Uni, cet article aborde la question de l’influence de la discipline sur les pratiques numériques des chercheurs en éducation. L’objectif de notre analyse des usages était d’identifier les facteurs favorisant ou décourageant l’usage de l’information numérique. Des enquêtes nous ont ainsi permis de vérifier que la nature de l’offre ainsi..

Radicalization's Core

Is radicalization inherently conducive to terrorism? This paper addresses this fault-line within discourses on radicalization by analyzing the political awakening and mobilization of British Muslims operating in environments targeted by violent-extremists. The results show that despite undergoing the ‘root causes’ and ‘triggers’ associated with radicalization, and even having direct contact with violent-extremists, research participants still rejected terrorism. This paper analyzes why participants’ radicalism promoted resilience to political violence rather than propel them towards it. It challenges the selection bias within terrorism and radicalization studies which constrain our ability to understand this phenomenon by focusing on the rare cases of people who support terrorism while ignoring its more common trajectories of non-terror related activism (or apathy). In correcting this bias, this paper proposes a more holistic definition of radicalization grounded in the lived realities of people undergoing that process and concludes with a discussion on what the findings mean for the assumptions underpinning academic discourses on this matter and state counterterrorism policies

Les déterminants de la communication volontaire des informations financières : revue de littérature

The purpose of this work is to highlight the motivations or determinants that encourage companies to go beyond regulatory obligations by disclosing their financial information voluntarily. This issue will remain relevant as long as mandatory communication is restricted. Indeed, regulatory communication obliges companies to communicate a certain amount of information, except that this is often considered insufficient since the information communicated does not always reflect the real situation of the company with full transparency. Our article will present a comparison between different studies carried out on a multitude of samples of companies around the world, in order to have a more global vision between the different types of companies that have chosen to disclose more information as well as the various reasons behind this choice. By comparing the results of different studies, companies will be able to choose between moving towards voluntary disclosure, or simply communicating what is strictly necessary. Bankruptcy or financial distress may motivate executives to disclose more information in their annual reports, but not only, but the choice of corporate information dissemination strategy is also just as important. The comparison of the strong and weak points of the various studies moreover by accentuating on the circumstances in which information becomes voluntary, will allow a more obvious choice of communication strategy on the part of the leaders.     JEL Classification : G 30 Paper type: Theoretical Research   L’objet de ce travail est de souligner les motivations ou les déterminants qui incitent les entreprises à aller au-delà des obligations réglementaires en divulguant ses informations financières volontairement. Cette problématique restera toujours d’actualité tant que la communication obligatoire est restreinte. En effet, la communication réglementaire oblige les entreprises à communiquer un certain nombre d’informations, sauf que cela est souvent jugé insuffisant étant donné que les informations communiquées ne reflètent pas toujours la situation réelle de l’entreprise avec une transparence totale. Notre article présentera une comparaison entre différentes études réalisées sur une multitude d’échantillons d’entreprises à travers le monde, afin d’avoir une vision plus globale entre les différents types de sociétés qui ont choisi de divulguer davantage d’informations ainsi que les diverses raisons derrière ce choix. En comparant les résultats des différentes études, les entreprises pourront choisir entre se diriger vers une communication volontaire, ou de se contenter de communiquer le strict nécessaire. La faillite ou la détresse financière peuvent motiver les dirigeants à divulguer encore plus d’informations dans leur rapport annuel, mais pas que le choix de stratégie de diffusion d’information des entreprises est tout aussi important. La comparaison des points forts et faibles des différentes études ainsi que la mise en accent sur les circonstances par lesquelles les informations deviennent volontaires permettront un choix de stratégie de communication plus évident de la part des dirigeants.     Classification JEL : G 30 Type de l’article : Article théorique

Prevent-ing dissent: How the UK’s counterterrorism strategy is eroding democracy

This report reveals that, in the United Kingdom, fundamental rights and equality within social justice movements are being eroded by Prevent - the country’s strategy that aims to stop people from embracing forms of ‘extremism’ that the government claims could lead to terrorism. The fundamental rights being eroded include the freedoms of thought and belief, freedom of association and the rights to speak out and protest peacefully against state policies. Our findings suggest that, while the government’s use of the strategy continues to disproportionately impact Muslim communities, the targeting of so-called ‘nonviolent extremism’ is producing a climate in which people from non-Muslim backgrounds are also losing their ability to engage in nonviolent protest and civic action. These findings are based on interviews we conducted with people in the UK from across a range of social movements, including environmental and anti-racism movements; international solidarity campaign groups; and members of civil society groups from Muslim and non-Muslim backgrounds. We also interviewed educational professionals to understand how their officially designated role of nurturing students into becoming socially aware and politically active citizens is affected by their legal duty under Prevent to monitor and report students for signs of ‘extremism’
