Populism as a pathological form of politics of recognition
2018
This article combines the neo-Hegelian theory of recognition with an analysis of social pathologies to show how the populist formulations of political goals in struggles for recognition are – despite their potential positive motivating force – socially pathological. The concept of recognition, combined with the idea of social pathologies, can thus be used to introduce normative considerations into the populism analysis. In this article it is argued that, although populism is useful in the sense that it aims to ameliorate real experienced lack of recognition through fostering political movements, it is also harmful. The simplified populist representations of collective identities are often g…
Etude des déterminants de la prime d'acquisition d'un bloc de contrôle : le cas français
2005
Dans ce travail, nous vérifions si la prime payée lors de l'acquisition d'un bloc de contrôle dépend de la taille de ce dernier et de la détention préalable d'actions de l'entreprise par l'acquéreur du bloc. Nous testons nos hypothèses sur un échantillon de 80 opérations réalisées en France entre 1996 et 2002. Nos résultats montrent que la taille du bloc acquis a une incidence sur la prime payée par les acquéreurs. Par ailleurs, nous constatons qu'il y a lieu d'étudier séparément les opérations effectuées par les actionnaires possédant déjà une fraction des actions de l'entreprise et celles effectuées par de nouveaux actionnaires
A scoping review exploration of the intended and unintended consequences of eHeath on older people : a health equity impact assessment
2018
eHealth is one perceived mechanism to extend the range and reach of limited health-care resources for older adults. A decade-scoping review (2007–2017) was conducted to systematically search and synthesize evidence to understand the intended and unintended consequences of eHealth initiatives, informed by a health equity impact assessment framework. Scoping review sources included international academic and grey literature on eHealth initiatives (e.g., eHealth records, telemedicine/telecare, and mobile eHealth application) focused on the varying needs of older adults (aged 60+), particularly individuals experiencing sociocultural and economic difficulties. Findings suggest that eHealth has s…
Long-Term Breastfeeding: The Embodied Experiences of Finnish Mothers
2019
Mothers’ experiences constitute a central and widely discussed issue within feminist breastfeeding research. Less is said however, about long-term breastfeeding in relation to embodiment. This article analyses the embodied experiences of Finnish mothers who have breastfed for over a year. Through a feminist lens, and an inductive qualitative content analysis, the written accounts of 39 long-term breastfeeding mothers were analysed, to show how mothers reflect on embodiment while breastfeeding long-term. Mothers described their embodied experiences in relation to four themes: functionality of the body; tiredness; beauty norms; and pleasure. The study reveals their accounts of bodily changes …

The designers and managers of theme parks seek first of allto encourage the visitor's immersion in the heart of an ex-traordinary experience. Nevertheless, access to this type ofconsumption experience is not systematic and the visitor'simmersion does not seem permanent. In this article, we of-fer a better understanding of the park experience. Buildingon the analysis of 41 introspective diaries of theme parkvisitors, we identify states of immersion but also other ex-perienced states (submersion, emersion, reject). On a ma-nagerial plan, this approach offers understanding keys toparks managers and more globally to managers of touristsites offering extraordinary experiences.

Effect of Fibrin Sealant on Seroma Formation Post-Incisional Hernia Repair
2020
Background: Development of seroma after incisional hernia repair is a common complication. Our study aims to compare the outcomes of sublay incisional hernia repairs with or without spray instillation of fibrin glue. Methods: We enrolled fifty patients undergoing incisional hernia repair. In all patients a suction drain was placed in the subcutaneous space. In one group (FG) 4 ml fibrin glue was instilled in the subcutaneous space. In the control group (C) patients did not receive any prevention measure. Wounds fluids were collected on post-operative day 1 (POD) and once daily until drain removal. All patients were followed up by ultrasound on POD 15, 20, 40, 60. Results: Drain fluid produc…

Understanding space in ephemeral organizations: contributions of commented walksThis article examines a particular type of ephemeral organization in which institutional and secular actors are connected resting upon on a strong territorial basis. Their fleeting quality is however compatible with a certain degree of permanency. The authors question the sources and resources of such permanency and insist on the role of space in coordinating collective action, and in this case, in preventing urban incivilities. They call on an unusual method, called Commented Walks, to capture the relation between such organizations and space.
Finnish reform of the funding and provision of special education : the views of principals and municipal education administrators
2015
This study examines the current state of special education provision and resources in Finland after the extensive reform of the government transfer system and Basic Education Act implemented in 2010–2011. Data were collected from a survey of compulsory school principals and from interviews with the highest-ranking officials in municipal education administration. The results show that participants viewed the Basic Education Act as having a more significant impact on the provision of special education than the reform of the government transfer system. Partly due to the reforms, local authorities have targeted the resources of special education differently and used resources more effectively. …
