Coffins in Finland : the history of production, design and attitudes
2017
AbstractCoffins as death-related objects have changed in Finland during the past 150 years and the Finnish funeral industry has been created to answer the changing needs of customers. No longer do people build coffins in the household, or only buy a coffin and some other items from the funeral company: now professionals manage entire funerals. Coffin designs have become simpler and less socially discriminating and the colour formerly reserved for children and young people, white, has become the most popular colour for a coffin. Attitudes towards coffins have also changed, from mild dislike of having a coffin in the home to general demand of hiding coffins even in funeral companies’ premises…

La modernisation de la Justice au Sénégal : vers la recherche de la performance
2018
My thesis project focuses on the challenges of modernizing the justice system. The reason for this choice is that Senegal, after having originally set up a dual system of juridiction in 1960, made major reforms of its judicial organization in 1984,1992, 2008 and ultimately in 2015. Meanwhile,the country signed the Port Louis Treaty establishing the OHADA which set up a common Court of Justice and Arbitration, a Judicial Academy and led to adoption of 10 uniform acts that govern the business law in the 17 member states. Senegal was the first country sign the treaty of Rome establishing the International Crininal Court and after receiving a mandate from the African Union to try the former Pre…
What future for decommissioned historic irrigation canals? Crafting new identities in the Lower Ter (Spain)
2020
Historic irrigation canals are valuable socioecological systems capable of delivering several ecological and cultural services. However, ecological modernisation initiatives are leaving decommissioned ditches in limbo. A case study strategy is used to analyse the history of a decommissioned 700-year-old canal network in northeastern Spain and the unexpected intervention of several stakeholders who have attempted to redefine the former canals through new uses. The study relies on the analysis of documents and eight semistructured interviews with key stakeholders. We argue that this case reflects a policy failure in the application of multifunctionality, integrative planning and social partic…

An exploratory study to investigate emotion elicited by immersive ambiances
2011
Food behaviour is modulated by the eating situation and environment. In a previous study, we investigated drink choices according to the ambiance by developing an immersive approach based on the concept of “having a drink in a bar”. Two bars (Modern vs. Traditional ambiance) were settled with a few piece of furniture (counter, tables and bar stools) made in raw wood for the Traditional bar and in blue retro-lighted translucent plastic for the Modern bar. A video-clip was projected on one wall: Red moving shapes associated to a “far west” music in the Traditional bar, and Blue moving bubbles associated to an “electro” music in the Modern bar. In each bar, 100 participants were asked which be…

Zarządzanie funkcją środowiskową w rolnictwie - źródło nowych rent gospodarstw rolnych
2016
W Unii Europejskiej ekologizacja rolnictwa stanowi wstępny etap takiej jego transformacji, która umożliwi gospodarstwom rolnym, rozmieszczonym w różnych miejscach przestrzeni europejskiej, trwały udział w kreowaniu zielonego wzrostu. Praca jest próbą odpowiedzi na pytanie: Czy dzięki doskonaleniu zarządzania funkcją środowiskową towarowe gospodarstwa rolne regionu opolskiego mogą przygotować się do wyzwań związanych z gospodarką sieciową i zadań obecnego etapu ich modernizacji? W opracowaniu przedstawiono rolę polityki ekologicznej w definiowaniu obecnego etapu modernizacji gospodarstw rolnych, mechanizmy jej integracji z celami WPR do 2020 r. oraz strategią Europa 2020. Ustalenia te stanow…
