Distributed pedagogical leadership and generative dialogue in educational nodes
2012
The article presents practices of distributed pedagogical leadership and generative dialogue as a tool with which management and personnel can better operate in the increasingly turbulent world of education. Distributed pedagogical leadership includes common characteristics of a professional learning community when the educational actors intentionally share a common mission. There, all stakeholders take collective responsibility for students' learning. Generative dialogue is a way to negotiate in this realm in generating new knowledge and understanding. To introduce this process in practice, the article describes two Finnish learning environments where the stakeholders define, first, the c…
Collective behavior ofMbosonic modes interacting with a single two-level atom
1988
The Hamiltonian describing, without the rotating-wave approximation (RWA), the linear interaction between M bosonic modes with an Einstein spectrum and a single two-level atom is exactly and canonically transformed introducing M suitable collective independent field modes, in such a way that only one among them is coupled to the atom. Some physical consequences of this fact are analyzed and, in particular, the existence of radiation-trapping phenomena together with the possibility of atomic absorption suppression is established. The applicability of the RWA to this system is discussed and the importance of the effective-field statistics for the time evolution of the system is pointed out.
The strike in private international law
2014
The development of the strike in the international order can appreciate richness and diversity of the collective expression of workers, it also increased competition from different national laws. The absence of a regulation reflects the difficulty of controlling the legal concept and it creates a conflict of laws and courts. The need for the adoption of rules of conflict, which determines the law and the competent court, has therefore become necessary to provide an answer to this conflict problem. The character of the fundamental right to strike, however, requires to be special protection when its value is questioned by an authority designated by the conflict rule foreign law. As such, the …
The Role of Searle's Constitutive Rules for the Rational Criticizability of Institutional Reality
2013
My hypothesis is that we can derive the normative conditions that institutions and institutional acts have to meet in order to be rationally acceptable/recognizable from the logical structure of institutional reality. Developing Searle's achievements on the constitutive role of speech acts in the construction of institutional reality and on their character of institutional acts, I'll show that the same types of constitutive rules underlying illocutionary acts also underlie institutional reality. I’ll then argue that we can derive a specific set of normative criteria for the rational criticizability of institutional acts from these constitutive rules in the same way that we can derive normat…
LA CONTRATTAZIONE COLLETTIVA NEGLI STATI UNITI DAL WAGNER ACT AI NOSTRI GIORNI
2016
LA CONTRATTAZIONE COLLETTIVA NEGLI STATI UNITI. DAL WAGNER ACT AI NOSTRI GIORNI. — Riassunto. Il presente lavoro analizza la legislazione statunitense in materia di contrattazione collettiva sin dall’emanazione del Wagner Act nel 1935. Al riguardo, vengono discusse le regole per il riconoscimento dei sindacati nei luoghi di lavoro e per la stipula degli accordi collettivi (principio di maggioranza e rappresentanza esclusiva, obbligo di negoziare secondo buona fede) e per la gestione del conflitto industriale (arbitrato e clausola di tregua): sulla scorta di un approccio storico-critico e dei leading case giurisprudenzialil’articolosottolineailcarattereprettamenteaziendaleeprivatisticodellere…
The Construction of Collective Memory: from Franco to Democracy
2004
Collective memory is neither spontaneous nor random, but the result of a series of selective practices. It establishes group identity and sets power relations between groups. The author considers the process of selection through a case study of the transformation of Franco’s regime in Spain into a democracy. Collective memory of the time is shown to be organized around an event (the Munich Coalition or contubernio) and around the democratic transition. The author traces two opposing notions, negationist (denying any importance to Munich) and the pro-democratic, and concludes that the memory of the transition is only the memory of those who won the civil war, who were also those who enginee…
L’expérience du Front populaire : renouvellement de la stratégie syndicale et des pratiques de la CGT (1936-1939)
2006
This study presents the trade-unionism strategy, during the Front populaire, and the role of the united CGT regarding the government social policy and professionnal relationships. In the way of dialog, its strategy is drive to keep first social reforms and bring on new trade-union practices.
La juridicisation de l’activité syndicale durant le Front populaire (CGT, CFTC, CSPF)
2014
National audience; Dans l’histoire du mouvement ouvrier, le Front populaire constitue un tournant puisque les syndicats tendent à s’affirmer en tant que véritables acteurs sociaux grâce à une représentativité nouvellement acquise dans le cadre d’une expérience unique d’un syndicalisme de masse. La signature des accords Matignon et les différentes dispositions juridiques qui suivent - loi sur la conciliation et l’arbitrage du 31 décembre 1936 et création de la Cour supérieure d’arbitrage en 1938 - ouvrent un chantier considérable en termes de droit du travail qui nécessite un investissement important des militants syndicaux désormais impliqués dans des procédures nouvelles (délégués-ouvriers…
Learning as Issue Framing in Agricultural Innovation Networks
2014
AbstractPurposeNetworks are increasingly viewed as entities of learning and innovation in agriculture. In this article we explore learning as issue framing in two agricultural innovation networks.Design/methodology/approachWe combine frame analysis and social learning theories to analyse the processes and factors contributing to frame convergence and hence improved practical collaborative outcomes in networks. Issue framing in the networks was followed during a two-year period with the help of multiple methods assembled under a transdisciplinary case study, action research and grounded methodology framework.FindingsOur research suggests that learning and collective action for more sustainab…
Connectivity Influences on Nonlinear Dynamics in Weakly-Synchronized Networks: Insights from Rössler Systems, Electronic Chaotic Oscillators, Model a…
2019
Natural and engineered networks, such as interconnected neurons, ecological and social networks, coupled oscillators, wireless terminals and power loads, are characterized by an appreciable heterogeneity in the local connectivity around each node. For instance, in both elementary structures such as stars and complex graphs having scale-free topology, a minority of elements are linked to the rest of the network disproportionately strongly. While the effect of the arrangement of structural connections on the emergent synchronization pattern has been studied extensively, considerably less is known about its influence on the temporal dynamics unfolding within each node. Here, we present a compr…
