Divorce: le rôle de l'éducatrice de l'enfance
Le divorce est un thème d’actualité qui peut toucher les enfants qui viennent dans les structures d’accueil. Mais quel est le rôle d’une éducatrice de l’enfance lorsque les parents d’un enfant divorcent ? Ce travail de recherche tente de répondre à cette question. Tout d’abord en cherchant des informations dans la littérature, pour comprendre le processus du divorce, les effets qu’il peut avoir sur l’enfant de 3 à 5 ans, les facteurs favorisants ou non l’adaptation de l’enfant ainsi que la construction d’une coparentalité. Puis, en rencontrant différentes professionnelles qui interviennent auprès des enfants lors d’un divorce. Ce travail arrive à la conclusion que les éducatrices de l’enfance peuvent avoir un rôle dans l’accompagnement de l’enfant et de ses parents dans cette situation, en faisant attention de ne pas les stigmatiser et en travaillant en partenariat avec eux. Elles peuvent aussi avoir une place dans le réseau qui se forme autour de la famille qui vit cette épreuve

The Ontology of Knowledge, logic, arithmetic, sets theory and geometry (issue 20210304)
In Issue 20210304 the paragraph "intuition of space" is reworded/improved.
At ordinary scales, the ontological model proposed by Ontology of Knowledge (OK) does not call into question the representation of the world elaborated by common sense or science.
This is not the world such as it appears to us and as science describes it that is challenged by the OK but the way it appears to the knowing subject and science.
In spite of the efforts made to separate scientific reasoning and metaphysical considerations, in spite of the rigorous construction of mathematics, these are not, in their very foundations, independent of modalities, of laws of representation of the world.
The OK shows that logical facts Exist neither more nor less than the facts of the World which are Facts of Knowledge. The mathematical facts are facts of representation.
Indeed : by the experimental proof, only the laws of the representation are proved persistent/consistent, because what science foresees and verifies with precision, it is not the facts of the world but the facts of the representation of the world. Beyond the laws of representation, nothing proves to us that there are laws of the world.
Remember, however, that mathematics « are worth themselves » and can not be called into question « for themselves » by an ontology. The only question is the process of creating meaning that provides mathematics with their intuitions a priori.
The first objective of this article will therefore be to identify and clarify what ruptures proposed by the OK could affect intuitions a priori which found mathematics but also could explain the remarkable ability of mathematics to represent the world.
For this, three major intuitions of form will be analyzed, namely : the intuition of the One, the intuition of time and the intuition of space.
Then considering mathematics in two major classes : {logic, arithmetic, set theory ...} on the one hand and geometry on the other hand, we will ask the questions :
- How does the OK affect their premises and rules of inference ?
- In case of incompatibility, under what conditions can such a mathematical theory be made compatible with the OK?
- Can we deduce a possible extension of the theory
Central Management of Local Performance: A Comparison of England and Korea
The author analyses performance measurement in the public sector and empirically tests the validity, legitimacy and functionality of Comprehensive Performance Assessment in England and Joint Performance Assessment in Korea on the basis of comparative methodology.Since the 1980s, New Public Management (NPM) has deeply influenced the public sector across the world, and thus measuring or managing performance has become a principal element of government reform. In terms of borrowing models and techniques from the private sector, performance measurement has been significantly extended into government, but differences between the two sectors have led to difficulties and criticism of this practice with a wide inconsistent variety of different theoretical explanations about it. In this context, this thesis investigates the effectiveness of performance measurement and theoretical explanations of conditions for its success in the public sector. It focuses through a comparative methodology on Comprehensive Performance Assessment and Joint Performance Assessment that have recently been introduced between the levels of government in England and Korea for the improvement of local government performance and accountability.
Extensive analysis of literature and case studies have allowed the thesis to find firstly, that the introduction of such unique assessment systems, by which the centre assesses localities, was deeply affected by the environmental commonalities of both countries such as centralisation in inter-governmental relations and enthusiasm for NPM. Second, the empirical evaluation of both tools shows that they have in practice been valid for accurate assessment, and directly functional for improvement and indirectly for accountability to the public. Their high validity and functionality proved to be mainly attributable to two characteristics. One was institutionally that both frameworks were based on a balanced approach to performance and the disclosure of assessment results to the public for facilitating competition between localities. The other was that both had impacted on internal management of local government which led to change in organisational culture with more focus on performance. However, it identified a necessity for local authorities to participate in the development process of those tools to ensure legitimacy of central management of local performance since they enjoy their own electorally based political support. The research has also found the importance of assessors’ expertise for accurate assessment and a possibility that performance measurement can contribute to the resolution of political tension and cooperation between central and local government when it focuses more on outcomes than input and process. A deeper theoretical and practical understanding of these successful experiences and important policy elements in contemporary public management contributes significantly to knowledge in the three settings of evaluation of policy instruments, comparison between countries and central-local relations. Finally, the study assists each country and others to draw lessons from each other
