The Future We Want: a Learning Experience to Promote SDGs in Higher Education from the United Nations and University of Valencia
2021
This article shares the strategy for mainstreaming the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the University of Valencia (UV), which, although limited in its scale, may compel other Higher Education Institutions to think in technological and social progress aligned with the 2030 Agenda. It explicates a process driven by the UV, on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the United Nations (UN), and in collaboration with the Service for Geospatial, Information, and Telecommunications Technologies from the UN Support Base in Valencia (Spain) to prepare the online event: “The United Nations We Want”. It was the culmination of a collaborative project between students and faculties from differe…
Linked(In)g sport management education with the sport industry: A preliminary study
2021
Social media are one of the most valuable management tools used by sport managers in the fulfilment of their daily tasks. However, the studies that share and analyse the impact of educational experiences that incorporate social media into sport management education for professional purposes are scarce to date. Thus, this study presents an educational innovation piloted in a sport management course where LinkedIn—the social media most associated with the professional sphere—is introduced through an experiential learning methodology, as a driver of students’ career development and as a tool to keep up to date and interact with the sport industry. To assess the learning outcomes, a new scale w…
In search of a theoretical framework of factors influencing work and life balance
2021
Work and life balance (WLB) has gained noticeable attention amid the pandemic. Even before the outbreak of COVID-19, the increasing pace of life encouraged the investigation of individual and organisational aspects of WLB. Physically and mentally healthy people help society develop and grow. Health issues caused by work and life imbalance lead to dissatisfaction with both work and life, which, in turn, leads to higher stress and stress-related illnesses, for instance, burnout. From the organisational point of view, WLB is a factor in analysing the efficiency of an enterprise. The consequences of a work-life imbalance are intentional or unintentional absence, high employee turnover, low prod…
Les loisirs sportifs en milieu de grande industrie : sport, patronat et organisations ouvrières au Creusot et à Montceau-les-Mines (1879-1939).
2009
This study describes the origin and development of the sports phenomenon in the industrial cities of Le Creusot and Montceaules-Mines (Saône-et-Loire, Burgundy), from 1879 to 1939. Throughout this period, sports in Le Creusot were totally dominated by associations led and controlled by the manufacturers, whereas in Montceau-les-Mines, worker sports were the object of conflict between industrialists and labor organisations. Such a contrast signals the existence of tight connections at the local level between the history of a place and the way in which a sport develops there. At the same time, these observations suggest some conclusions about historical conditions necessary to the emergence o…
Le genre des bris de machines : violence et mécanisation à l’aube de l’ère industrielle (Angleterre-France, 1750-1850)
2013
Les bris de machines constituent un type de violence recurrent en Angleterre et en France au debut de l’ere industrielle. Ce type de violence contestataire a ete peint essentiellement sous les traits d’une pratique masculine, impliquant le triomphe d’une conception virile des rapports sociaux et des conflits du travail. Loin d’etre marginales ou invisibles, les femmes sont pourtant bien presentes dans ces conflits, a la fois comme auxiliaires des hommes mais aussi comme actrices de plein droit insurgees contre les machines qui portent atteinte a la production domestique et a leur mode de vie. En examinant le genre des bris de machines, il s’agit a la fois de suivre comment les machines requ…

Inscrire les contrats en alternance dans une logique de parcours sécurisé : rapport d'évaluation
2012
Document en ligne sur le site de l'IREDU; Les avantages de l'apprentissage ne doivent pas masquer la réalité de ce mode de formation et les difficultés des jeunes qui peuvent apparaître dès le début du choix de l'alternance, ou au cours de leur cursus, et entraîner un abandon. Une action de tutorat externe et neutre menée par trois Missions locales auprès des apprentis et des employeurs peut contribuer à la sécurisation des parcours d'apprentissage, comme le montre l'expérimentation réalisée durant près de deux ans en Côte-d'Or, une expérience randomisée sous certaines conditions. Les publics ciblés étaient les jeunes entrés dans la vie active par le biais d'un contrat d'apprentissage dans …

The Inclusion of Socially Irresponsible Companies in Sustainable Stock Indices
2019
Social rating agencies implement complex filters to identify the companies with the best sustainable and social performance and help investors select the companies for their sustainable portfolios. This study analysed whether companies that are defined as ethical, sustainable and socially responsible by those agencies actually deserve this label. More specifically, the inclusion in the prestigious Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) World of companies that have been involved in controversies according to the Thomson Reuters Eikon database was studied. The results show that the inclusion of irresponsible companies in the DJSI Index is a fact. This outcome is in line with previous studies t…
