Resistance to Change in the Corporate Elite
2017
In this empirical study, we investigate the variation in firms’ response to institutional pressure for gender-balanced boards, focusing specifically on the preservation of prevailing practices of director selection and its impact on the representation of women on the board of directors. Using 8 years of data from publicly listed Nordic corporations, we show societal pressure to be one of the determinants of female directorship. Moreover, in some corporations, the director selection process may work to maintain “a traditional type of board”. In such boards, demographic diversity among male members appears to be associated with a lower share of female directors, although we cannot establish w…
Les inspections primaires de l'éducation nationale : dotations, pratiques et effets sur le fonctionnement des écoles et les acquis des élèves
1997
This article analyses first the variety in the characteristics of local school inspectorates both in the quantitative (number of teachers) and in the qualitative (social background and geographic dispersion) dimensions. In relation to these, the article examines tne level of endowment (staffing and material) of the inpectorates and concludes to the lack of relationship between the resources mobilized and the needs at the local level. Then the practises of the inspectors and of their teams are described and here again a wide variety does exist across the different inspectorates in the administrative, relational and pedagogical dimensions of their activity (this variety in practices shows no …
Les rapports d'inspection du 1er degré, contenus et finalités : un exemple à La Réunion
2000
Azzedine Si Moussa - The primary education inspection reports, contents and objectives : an exemple in La Reunion. From a sample of primary education inspection reports of the Reunion academy, we aim to show how these reports could reflect the accuracy of pedagogical activities and the needs in teacher training. The logistic procedures also highlight that, for example, the probability for obtaining a bad remark about the application of a differential pedagogical approach is more significant among male teachers, at the CP level and in particular districts. The results provide some questions about the issues and the relevance of the current way of making inspection.
Méthodes pédagogiques et interactions verbales dans la classe : quel impact sur les élèves de CP ?
1990
Cet article vise à déterminer, de façon empirique, l'influence des méthodes pédagogiques et des interactions verbales sur les performances des élèves, en fonction de la classe dans laquelle ils sont scolarisés. L'étude concerne les élèves de cours préparatoire, et elle montre que l'impact propre de la classe sur leurs acquisitions est relativement important. L'article souligne la nécessité de retenir une structure analytique englobant les caractéristiques socio-démographiques des élèves ainsi que leur niveau à l'entrée au CP, et également d'employer des méthodes statistiques permettant de contrôler l'impact de chacun de ces éléments. Les résultats révèlent que les méthodes pédagogiques ne r…
Value-Feeling and Moral Education: Pedagogical Remarks on Dietrich Von Hildebrand’s Phenomenology
2021
The paper orbits around the pedagogical relevance of value-feeling in Dietrich von Hildebrand’s ethical perspective. In particular, his early works—namely, his PhD Thesis and Habilitationsschrift, entitled Die Idee der sittlichen Handlung and Sittlichkeit und ethische Werterkenntnis respectively—will be considered insofar as they include an account of the intentional act of value-feeling (Wertfühlen). This recalls the main claims on emotions shared by the members of the Munich and Gottingen Circle: i.e., the stratification of emotional life, the intentionality of emotion and feeling, and, most of all, their moral dimension. After briefly portraying von Hildebrand’s early life, his debt towa…
Keep Your Piece of Cake, We’ll Squat the Bakery! Autonomy Meets Repression and Institutionalisation
2017
Squatting is usually subject to institutionalisation, co-optation and repression. Legalisation of the squats is also a controversial issue among activists. This chapter provides an overview of these topics in Central-Northern European cities (Berlin, Copenhagen and Paris) and Southern European cities (Madrid, Barcelona and Rome). The authors explore how local authorities respond to squatting in different protest cycles and the consequences of those responses. Resistance to negotiations and legalisation are eventually considered within the framework of the anti-capitalist orientation of most squatters’ movements. Furthermore, the authors’ comparison across cities takes into account local con…

Varieties of agencies during working life changes
2020
The aim of this study is to shed light on the varieties of workers´ agencies in working life change situations, which is an under-researched topic in the literature of workplace learning and in working life studies. The research questions are what kinds of agencies there are to be found when workers encounter changes and how the different kinds of agencies are connected together. The understanding of agency is grounded on the subject-centered socio-cultural approach, whereas the methodological approach is based on applying life-course perspective on research material consisting of 48 working life narratives written by Finnish adults. The narratives are analyzed by abductive content analysis…
In a World Where You can be Anyone: An Investigation into the Gendered Social Practices of Pakistani Facebook Users
2021
AbstractThis article investigates the construction of gender identities of Pakistani men and women Facebook users given that Facebook has emerged as the prime social media platform through which Pakistani users interact. By employing thematic analysis and taking insights from theory of performativity and intersectionality, the findings of the interview data suggest that the formation, negotiation, and expression of gender identities on Facebook occurs through complex interplay between the discourses of religion, class, culture, and tradition. In some cases, Facebook highlighted the reproduction of the prevalent cultural models of masculinity and femininity while in other cases; there was re…
Thomas MacGreevy and Samuel Beckett. Affinity and Controversy
2012
Acquainted with Beckett in (1928) Parisian Ecole Normale, Thomas MacGreevy soon became his confidant and a literary mentor introducing him to James Joyce and Richard Aldington. Their artistic interests took form, among others, of the common declaration “Manifesto. Poetry is Vertical” (1932), signed by them and several other poets associated with Jolas’s transition. However, the intellectual attraction between the two was, at the same time, disturbed, or, so to say, spiced, by the tension between Beckett’s agnosticism and MacGreevy’s Catholicism. Sean Kennedy’s illuminating article (“Beckett Reviewing MacGreevy: A Reconsideration,” in; The Irish University Review, September 2005, pp. 273–288…
