Structuration du territoire bourguignon : de l'île à l'isthme
2006
Three principles govern the structuration of the burgundian territory. Its internal organization, with the peripheral location of its most active areas, is similar to the organization of an island. Its situation within national and European space makes it an area of multiple transitions, an unsettled organization, submissive to strong centrifugal forces which can threaten its unity. Lastly, it has always been crossed by numerous links, it is an intermediate space between nodes, strongly marked with networks and exogenous traffic which criss-cross its territory.
Słownik Jana Józefa Baranowskiego w świetle jego korespondencji: między teorią a praktyką
2018
This paper looks at the rich, and largely unexplored, correspondence of Jan Józef Baranowski, an insurgent in the November Uprising, a refugee in France and England, an accomplished inventor and the author of a two-volume bilingual dictionary (Anglo-Polish lexicon, 1883; Słownik polsko-angielski, 1884). Baranowski’s letters, primarily those addressed to Leonard Niedźwiedzki, allow one to investigate both his lexicographic conceptions and working methods. As it has turned out, the design of his dictionary was innovative, but Baranowski had experience neither in lexicography nor foreign language teaching. It is thus unsurprising that, despite his efforts to promote the endeavour in the immigr…
Graphic Medicine as a Didactic Tool for Training Medical Translators: a comparative analysis in French and Spanish
2021
The use of comics to communicate health-related topics has aroused growing interest in their translation from English, as well as from other languagessuch as French. Acknowledging the twofold challenge posed by a medium and a language combination that have seldom been explored in medical translation training, we will compare and contrast the Spanish translation of the French comic L’incroyable histoire de la médecine to make a didactic contribution to the training of medical translators. We will study the iconographic and textual codes present in the comic before presenting a proposal for its use in educational settings.
Asymmetric effects of monetary policy shocks across US states
2019
This paper provides new empirical evidence of the asymmetric effects of monetary policy shocks across regions. Using a measure of unanticipated changes in the Fed's policy rates over the period 1969Q3–2008Q4 and a local projection method extended to account for spatial effects, we find that monetary policy tightening leads to a long-lasting decrease in states' real personal income, with asymmetric effects across states that are amplified by spatial spillovers. The paper then investigates the role played by several transmission channels finding larger contractionary effects of monetary policy tightening in states with higher manufacturing share, smaller firms, smaller banks and higher house …
Transnational ties: Resource or stressor on Peruvian migrants' well‐being?
2020
This paper explores the role of types and the intensity of transnational ties for migrants' well‐being from a global perspective. Based on a literature review, two competing hypotheses are formulated—transnational resources versus transnational stress—according to which transnational ties have either a positive or a negative effect on migrants' well‐being. Drawing on data from a large‐scale survey of Peruvian migrants worldwide, this paper examines the strength and direction of the relationship between Peruvian migrants' transnational ties and poor well‐being, the latter measured as depression/loneliness as a principal concern. While the multivariate regression results do not support the tr…
To vote or not to vote? Migrant electoral (dis)engagement in an enlarged Europe

External voting by nonresident citizens has become an important feature of contemporary democratic politics. However, compared to the average voter in domestic elections, we still know significantly less about migrants’ motivations to vote or not. Whereas analyses of external voting patterns offer insights into the results of external voting compared to origin populations, there is a lacuna of knowledge about why migran…
LCA of Different Construction Choices for a Double-Track Railway Line for Sustainability Evaluations
2023
The international commitment to achieve carbon neutrality in the next few decades has oriented human activities towards the preservation of natural and non-renewable resources. In this context, a great research effort has been devoted to the search for sustainable solutions for the infrastructure construction sector, based on a thorough assessment of the environmental impact (EI). In this regards, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is considered one of the main components of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and, for a comprehensive analysis, all the costs incurred by stakeholders during the useful life of the infrastructure should also be taken into account, applying the Life Cycle Cost (LCC)…
Système de transport urbain : caractérisation de l'offre et estimation de la demande
2010
Comment rendre la ville plus accessible, l'ouvrir au plus grand nombre afin de favoriser les interactions fonctionnelles ? Les besoins de mobilité évoluent en permanence et confèrent toute son importance à cet enjeu de société. Au traditionnel "droit au transport" des années 1970, s'est progressivement substitué un "droit aux mobilités", y compris individuelles, qui est devenu l'une des clés de voûte de la gestion des espaces urbains. Dans ce contexte mouvant, l'analyse des systèmes de transport urbain doit progresser aussi bien du côté de la caractérisation de l'offre que du point de vue de l'estimation de la demande. L'information géographique et, de manière plus générale, les méthodes et…
