'It's like a Sentence before the Sentence' - Exploring the Pains and Possibilities of Waiting for Imprisonment
2020
This article explores the implications of the ‘imprisonment queue’ in Norway. Based on interview data (N = 200), we show that while interviewees waiting to serve their sentences enjoy certain benefits such as being able to prepare for or negotiate the terms of their imprisonment, they also suffer from uncertainty and powerlessness. The suspension of their lives while they wait hinders them in pursuing their ground projects, things that really matter to them. This peculiar phenomenon has not received attention from prison scholars generally, as well as scholars writing on Nordic Exceptionalism specifically. This article addresses that gap and poses questions about the relative mildness of th…
Akbarian Scepticism in Islam : Qūnawī's Sceptical Arguments from Relativity and Disagreement
2021
This study deals with the sceptical arguments by one of the most important figures in the philosophical Sufi tradition (the Akbarian school) and the foremost disciple of Ibn ʿArabī, Ṣadr al‐Dīn al‐Qūnawī. Though not a sceptic in the strict sense, Qūnawī employs sceptical arguments from relativity of rational knowledge and disagreement among philosophers to prove inefficacy of reason and rational procedures of knowledge in terms of achieving certain knowledge of metaphysical matters, namely of God and the ultimate principles of things. The paper questions Qūnawī's implicit assumption that, if there is disagreement on a proposition p, then p is relative and thus cannot provide certain knowled…
Religijne budowanie pokoju (religious peacebuilding): rola religii w rozwiązywaniu konfliktów
2016
In relation to the evolving nature of armed conflicts, the so-called „soft aspects” of peacebuilding have been gaining significance in the last few decades. The hitherto dominant perspective based on solid features of structural and institutional development is being extended in the direction of appreciation of one’s viewpoint, manner of perception by individuals and interpersonal relations. In this approach, subjects remaining in conflict (perceived both individually and as a group) are regarded as means and goals that make achievement of permanent peace possible. It is assumed that efficient peacebuilding is only possible through understanding the way of thinking and feeling by conflictin…

Mettre le développement du « pouvoir d’agir » au centre de l’intervention : une autre voie de prévention des risques psychosociaux ?
2015
Placing the “power to act” at the center of interventions : Another prevention of psychosocial risks ?A category of personnel highly exposed to psychosocial risks is the employees who have contact with the public. To ward off such risks, organizations have often adopted prevention plans. A recent survey conducted in a prefecture has shed light on the deviant effects of such plans, which do not necessarily make sense to employees and tend, ultimately, to deprive them of a sense of responsibility. As this survey shows, front-office employees and their supervisors are not passive. They cultivate the “psychological and social resources” needed to cope with difficult situations at work. These re…
Ruch pokojowy w RFN (Friedensbewegung) w pierwszej połowie lat osiemdziesiątych XX wieku
2017
W latach 80. XX wieku ruch pokojowy mobilizujący setki tysięcy osób w protestach przeciwko podwójnej uchwale NATO z grudnia 1979 r. był istotnym elementem zachodnioniemieckiej sceny politycznej. Wpływał na układ sił i konflikty wewnętrzne w socjaldemokracji niemieckiej (SPD), będąc największym oponentem polityki prowadzonej przez rząd kanclerza Helmuta Schmidta, przyczynił się do powstania Partii Zielonych, a jego działania doprowadziły do zaistnienia polemiki w związkach zawodowych i były bodźcem do dyskusji etycznych i religijnych w Kościele katolickim i protestanckim w RFN. Stał się również przedmiotem wielu kontrowersji oraz symbolem aktywności i siły społecznej.
Sleepless in Carver Country: Insomnia and Existential Crisis in Raymond Carver’s Short Fiction
2020
Chez Raymond Carver, la nuit n’est jamais uniquement une toile de fond réaliste. Dans ses nouvelles se déroulant après la tombée de la nuit, Carver joue à déconstruire les clichés généralement associés au confort de l’intimité nocturne et du lit conjugal. L’insomnie qui frappe certains de ses personnages les renvoie au contraire à leur complète solitude et à leur condition de mortels. Cet article cherche donc à voir comment la nuit blanche carvérienne est utilisée métaphoriquement pour exprimer l’angoisse de personnages souvent peu expansifs, qui veulent leur part du Rêve américain mais se retrouvent pris au piège d’un cauchemar existentiel. In Raymond Carver’s short fiction, the night is n…
: " Si tu veux la paix, prépare la guerre " ou " si tu veux la paix, prépare la paix " ?
2012
International audience; A la fin du IVe siècle dans son Traité de l'art militaire (De re militari), le chrétien Végèce a écrit : " qui désire la paix, se prépare donc à la guerre ". Son ouvrage, utilisé comme manuel de moralisation du guerrier par l'Eglise catholique, est encore qualifié au début du XIXe siècle par des stratèges militaires de " Livre d'or " des règles de la guerre. Mais cet adage toujours présent dans l'esprit de nos contemporains a été dénoncé en 1841 par le saint-simonien Barthélemy Prosper Enfantin qui a écrit : " si tu veux la paix, prépare la paix ". Le mouvement pacifiste qui s'est développé depuis les conflits napoléoniens peine à reprendre son souffle à la fin de la…
Sports teams as complex adaptive systems: manipulating player numbers shapes behaviours during football small-sided games
2016
Small-sided and conditioned games (SSCGs) in sport have been modelled as complex adaptive systems. Research has shown that the relative space per player (RSP) formulated in SSCGs can impact on emergent tactical behaviours. In this study we adopted a systems orientation to analyse how different RSP values, obtained through manipulations of player numbers, influenced four measures of interpersonal coordination observed during performance in SSCGs. For this purpose we calculated positional data (GPS 15 Hz) from ten U-15 football players performing in three SSCGs varying in player numbers (3v3, 4v4 and 5v5). Key measures of SSCG system behaviours included values of (1) players’ dispersion, (2) …
