2012
International audience; La creación de la Junta democrática como plataforma antifranquista se proponía romper con las instituciones del Régimen iniciando una lucha pacífica que debía permitir una democratización radical del estado. La ruptura con las instituciones del franquismo debía ser llevada a cabo gracias a un gobierno provisional representativo de todas las fuerzas de oposición. Las numerosas acciones y comunicaciones a los órganos de prensa internacionales de la Comisión Exterior de la Junta democrática de España, dirigida por José Vidal Beneyto, permitieron a la JDE darse a conocer a los países europeos siendo aún ilegal dentro del país. Los artículos del diario ABC de 1974-75 se h…
Bioactive Polyphenols from Grapes and Wine Emphasized with Resveratrol
2013
Grape polyphenols are abundant. They play essential roles in the plant's life, particularly in defence mechanisms. Moreover, the grape, fresh or dried, is a widely consumed fruit by humans, as are its by-products, grape juice and wine. They also contain vast and highly varied quantities of polyphenols. Like other phytophenols, grape and wine resveratrol is considered a protective micronutrient. Resveratrol is a well known antioxidant, for example, a protector of low-density lipoproteins against oxidation. Its applications are therefore highly varied. Research supports the idea that wine consumed regularly, without excess, is a natural biological product possesses preventive properties, and …
The Role of the Philosophy of Technology in French-Language Studies of Video Games
2018
This chapter analyzes the role played by the philosophies of technology in the development of French-language studies devoted to video games. This intellectual tradition is well represented within the field, in a variety of forms which are characteristic of the main trends in the French-language philosophy of technology. The field of games studies allows comparing and contrasting these different approaches to a single object. I analyze the specificities of the French-language field, its theoretical options, and the role played by the philosophy of technology in its points of divergence from the dominant trends in game studies. Four studies located at the intersection between philosophy of t…

A Comparative Analysis of Hospital Readmissions in France and the US
2015
International audience; Policymakers in the US and France are struggling to improve coordination among hospitals and other health care providers. A comparison of hospital readmission rates, and the factors that may explain them, can provide important insights about the French and US health care systems. In addition, it illustrates a methodological approach to comparative research: how an empirical inquiry along a single indicator can reveal broader issues about system-wide differences across health care systems and policy. Using data from three French regions, the article extends a previous national-level comparison indicating that rates of hospital readmission for the population aged 65+ a…
The citadel party : The French Communist Party in the Age of Political Marginalization
2022
Since the late 1970s, the French Communist Party (PCF) has been experiencing a long period of decline, affecting several elements (electoral collapse, decrease in memberships, disintegration of its action system…). Nowadays, it is a minor player in the French party system and becoming politically marginalized. However, despite this weakening over several decades, it is still present in the political landscape and even in some ways, demonstrates a resistant skill. How can we explain that a communist party still exists in a modern society like France ? This work is aimed to answer this question with the following hypothesis : the PCF has undergone a mutation which allows it to survive. This c…
