Utilisation de systèmes à base de folksonomies dans un processus de veille : propositions pour l'organisation et l'exploitation des informations coll…
2009
L'utilisation de folksonomies dans le cadre d'un processus de veille est un phénomène qui peu à peu est intégré aux pratiques de la veille sur l'Internet. Les folksonomies lorsqu'elles sont considérées comme sources d'information présentent un grand intérêt dans la mesure où elles permettent d'identifier et de surveiller l'émergence de nouveaux concepts ainsi que leurs représentations. Leur dimension collaborative et sociale facilite l'identification de cibles et d'experts. La diversité des ressources décrites au moyen de folksonomies permet d'élargir le champ des recherches d'information à des domaines parfois mal couverts par les outils plus traditionnels que sont les moteurs de recherche…
Governance of Projects: Generating value by linking projects with their permanent organisation
2019
Abstract There exists little research into how value is effectively generated by temporary projects from the wider perspective of a permanent organisation. This paper investigates empirically how ‘Governance of Projects’ – the way in which a single, permanent organisation identifies, creates, and subsequently harvests value through multiple projects – occurs in four private-sector case companies. Data were collected from in-depth interviews with a wide range of employees and from internal operational documents. These data were codified and analysed as evidence of the types and intensity of links between organisational elements. The results illuminate the complex interplay of links that are …
How representative are referendums? Evidence from 20 years of Swiss referendums
2017
Direct democracy allows citizens to reverse decisions made by legislatures and even initiate new laws which parliaments are unwilling to pass, thereby, as its proponents argue, leading to more representative policies than would have obtained under a purely representative democracy. Yet, turnout in referendums is usually lower than in parliamentary elections and tends to be skewed towards citizens of high socio-economic status. Consequently, critics of direct democracy argue that referendum outcomes may not be representative of the preferences of the population at large. We test this assertion using a compilation of post-referendum surveys encompassing 148 national referendums held in Switze…
Psychosocial Safety Climate as a Factor in Organisational Resilience: Implications for Worker Psychological Health, Resilience, and Engagement
2019
Organisations are undergoing unprecedented changes in order to survive in a global and fiercely competitive capitalist market. Resilience is the capacity to endure challenges and is an attribute highly sought after in organisations, but is a construct typically theorised at the individual level. We argue that the notion of resilience can be applied at a systems level to the organisational context, and that organisational resilience presages individual resilience. Organisational resilience is defined as the capacity of the organization to cope with challenges through flexible, adaptable, humane, and interactive systems, whilst maintaining the health, individual resilience, and engagement of …
La scolarisation à Djibouti
2011
La recherche présentée, menée à Djibouti, interroge les enjeux actuels de l'école de base sous ses principales déclinaisons. Situant historiquement l'école primaire (publique et privée catholique) d'inspiration occidentale face à son héritage de la colonisation, elle la confronte anthropologiquement à l'éducation traditionnelle d'une part et la renvoie au contexte de scolarisation orientale (école coranique et madrasa) coexistant d'autre part. Une fois établie la typologie scolaire, l'étude éclaire les enjeux philosophique, pédagogique et socio-professionnel inhérent ou résultant du choix de scolarisation.

The dimensions of mobilities: The spatial relationships between corporeal and digital mobilities
2013
Abstract The aim of this article is to study how the corporeal and digital mobilities are spatially organised in relation to each other in everyday life. The dimensions of mobilities are modelled by using survey data (N = 612) collected from Finland in 2011, Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) and Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA). The results show that the combined use of corporeal and digital means of mobility affect the spatial organisation of mobilities only little. The results indicate that young people and students are more likely to benefit from their mobility in networking activities as they are equipped with a larger variety of mobility means than older people and pensioners. L…
Long-term resource utilisation and associated costs of exercise during (neo)adjuvant oncological treatment: the Phys-Can project
2022
Background Exercise during oncological treatment is beneficial to patient health and can counteract the side effects of treatment. Knowledge of the societal costs associated with an exercise intervention, however, is limited. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the long-term resource utilisation and societal costs of an exercise intervention conducted during (neo)adjuvant oncological treatment in a randomised control trial (RCT) versus usual care (UC), and to compare high-intensity (HI) versus low-to-moderate intensity (LMI) exercise in the RCT. Methods We used data from the Physical Training and Cancer (Phys-Can) project. In the RCT, 577 participants were randomised to HI or to …
EDUCATION SUPPLY WITHIN UNIVERSITIES: AN ORGANIZATIONAL ARCHITECTURE THEORY ANALYSIS
2006
We analyzed through this thesis the decisional process within universities that drives to the educational supply. In order to do so, we used a stakeholder view. Whereas value distribution process has an effect on the production process, the organizational context emphasises a peculiar dimension. The integration of various stakeholders allows to measure individual contributions on the value creation process, through the decisional process. We sought to justify the existence of the mechanisms of control within the universities starting from the study of the decisional rights and from their alienability. Those concepts allow to define organizational architecture through three dimensions: the d…
Les vies étudiantes : tendances et inégalités
2016
National audience; On recense aujourd'hui plus de 2,4 millions d'étudiants en France. Une population dont les effectifs ne cessent de croître et qui se révèle être de plus en plus diversifiée. Se référer à « l'étudiant moyen » n'a donc pas plus de sens aujourd'hui qu'il n'en avait lors de la mise en place de la première enquête Conditions de vie des étudiants en 1994. Il en est de même de la vie étudiante qu'il est difficile de réduire à quelques clichés. Le seul fait d'être étudiant est loin d'homogénéiser les conditions de vie d'un public aux caractéristiques, aux expériences et aux attentes de plus en plus diversifiées. Le sexe, l'âge, la formation suivie, le parcours antérieur, la situa…
