Décroître pour rebondir : le déclassement des villes moyennes, une opportunité pour repenser la ville
2019
International audience; La politique contemporaine d’aménagement du territoire en France comme dans de nombreux pays favorise l’affirmation des grandes entités urbaines. Sous l’impulsion de la mondialisation de l’économie, la concentration des moyens humains et matériels dans un nombre réduit de très grandes agglomérations a largement contribué à reléguer les villes moyennes dans l’ombre des métropoles. Les centres de ces villes moyennes sont eux-mêmes concurrencés par leur périphérie à dominante rurale qui offre des opportunités de logement individuel plus avantageuses pour les ménages. Appréhendée de manière conjoncturelle, cette situation conduit à qualifier nombre de villes moyennes com…

L’accession à la propriété après les séparations : pourquoi un tel écart entre hommes et femmes ?
2021
À partir de l’enquête SRCV (Statistiques sur les Ressources et les Conditions de Vie), cet article se propose de décrire comment les séparations conjugales viennent renforcer les inégalités d’accession à la propriété entre hommes et femmes. Avant la rupture, les femmes ont des carrières moins rémunératrices que leur conjoint. Ces inégalités se creusent après la séparation, d’autant plus que les femmes ont davantage la garde des enfants. Elles ont donc des niveaux de vie plus faibles et des situations professionnelles plus précaires, leur permettant moins souvent de rester propriétaires. Par ailleurs, à caractéristiques égales, les hommes font davantage le choix de la propriété que les femme…
"Travailler plus pour gagner plus". Análisis cultural de un lema de la campaña presidencial francesa del 2007
2019
“Travailler plus pour gagner plus” (“Work more to earn more”) was a slogan of right-wing candidate Nicolas Sarkozy during the 2007 French presidential election, which proposed exempting overtime working hours from taxation. In this article, I develop a cultural analysis of this political slogan. Its linguistic interest lies in its poetic and theatrical dimensions. The slogan is embedded in a rich cultural context: it refers to a doxa in right-wing discourse, according to which the “social model” should be replaced with a liberal model that also rescues the “value of work”. It responded to voter economic and social concerns, which were supported by the media. Through such strong slogans, Nic…
Practicing Ballot Secrecy : Postal Voting and the Witness Requirement at the 2019 Finnish Elections
2021
Electoral rights belong to the core of citizenship in democratic nation-states. Voting, then, represents an actualization of the relationship between the citizen and the political community. For citizens living outside the country in which they are eligible to vote, voting signifies a rare institutional connection to the country of origin. The aim of this article is to explore the introduction of the postal vote, a new form of voting for external voters at Finnish elections, from the grassroots perspective. The study focuses on how a central policy concern, safeguarding ballot secrecy, was resolved in the policy implementation by the witness requirement, and how the individual voters subseq…

The effect of balconies on energy efficiency of multi-unit residential buildings: A state of art review
2019
Multi-unit residential buildings (MURBs) has become common in urban areas in order to accommodate the demands of the increasing urban population and make use of limited urban land. These buildings are high consumers of energy and natural resources with significant carbon footprints. Efforts are hence needed to make new and existing MURBs more energy efficient and environmentally. Balconies in MURBs can help decrease operational energy in addition to providing a connection to the outdoor environment for the residents. If properly designed, MURBs balconies in cold climates can help in enhancing solar gains while in warm climates, they can be useful in providing a sub-space capable of cooling …
Clinical Changes of Respiratory Parameters in Institutionalized Older Adults after a Physiotherapy Program Combining Respiratory and Musculoskeletal …
2022
Nowadays pulmonary diseases are an increasingly important cause of morbidity and mortality. Diaphragmatic breathing is a controlled-breathing technique that aims to optimize thoracoabdominal movements. The aim of this study was to apply a respiratory and musculoskeletal physiotherapy program in institutionalized older adults and to assess the effects on their pulmonary function tests and oxygen saturation. A randomized double-blind clinical trial was conducted with thirty institutionalized older adults, randomly assigned to a control group (CG), who conducted musculoskeletal exercises; or an experimental group (EG) who, in addition, carried out diaphragmatic breathing, administered for eigh…
