The Urban Exposome during Pregnancy and Its Socioeconomic Determinants
2018
Background: The urban exposome is the set of environmental factors that are experienced in the outdoor urban environment and that may influence child development. Objective: The authors’ goal was to describe the urban exposome among European pregnant women and understand its socioeconomic determinants. Methods: Using geographic information systems, remote sensing and spatio-temporal modeling we estimated exposure during pregnancy to 28 environmental indicators in almost 30,000 women from six population-based birth cohorts, in nine urban areas from across Europe. Exposures included meteorological factors, air pollutants, traffic noise, traffic indicators, natural space, the built environment…
The relevance of the French rural policy by the yardstick of the theories of justice
2010
The relevance of the French rural policy by the yardstick of the theories of justice How to evaluate the relevance of the French rural policy ? When the question is to what extent the objectives of the policy are reached owing to public interventions, the method is relatively well known. However, when the question is to what extent these objectives are relevant, an important problem is faced : the referential of this evaluation is indefinite. In this article, we propose to define this referential on the basis of moral and political philosophy : The objectives are relevant if they are derived from a conception of justice that is itself relevant. From this viewpoint, the relevance of the curr…
Individuals Across the Sciences
2015
International audience; What are individuals? How can they be identified? These are crucial questions for philosophers and scientists alike. Criteria of individuality seem to differ markedly between metaphysics and the empirical sciences - and this might well explain why no work has hitherto attempted to relate the contributions of metaphysics, physics and biology on this question. This timely volume brings together various strands of research into 'individuality', examining how different sciences handle the issue, and reflecting on how this scientific work relates to metaphysical concerns. The collection makes a major contribution to clarifying and overcoming obstacles to the construction …
Roman Women e Public History: la creatività del Web
2018
Partendo dal dibattito sviluppatosi negli USA alla metà degli Anni Settanta sulla condizione femminile nel mondo antico, l’articolo sottolinea che ha contribuito a dare una lettura articolata dell’immagine delle donne romane. Ciò ha inciso non solo sulla storiografia posteriore, bensì oltre, come si ricava da alcuni recenti video YouTube sulle Roman Women, rinvenibili in rete. Essi mostrano la creatività dei loro autori, i loro diversi livelli di conoscenza e capacità tecniche. D’altro lato, proiettano lo spettatore nella vita quotidiana delle donne dell’antica Roma. In tal senso, questo genere di produzione può essere considerato un ottimo esempio di Public History applicata e risultare ef…
La spiritualité des officiers royaux au début du XVIe siècle : Antoine Robert, bourgeois de Paris et secrétaire du roi de Louis XI à François Ier
1977
Antoine Robert, clerk of the high judicial court in Paris during the reign of Francis 1st, was one of the oldest royal secretaries when he died in 1521, on September. He is known to have given all his personnal assets and properties to the benedictin convent of the Blancs-Manteaux in Paris. His religious behaviour can be studied through three documents relating to his will, foundation and inheritance. So Antoine Robert, rather a rich and well educated laic seems to corroborate the weight of ideas which were brought from Flanders into France by the " Frères de la vie commune " and developped during the Reformation. The biblical and ancient authors' quotations contained in his will show that …
Utopie, égalité et liberté : l'impossible idéal
2012
The purpose of this article is to derive the logical but unexpected consequences in terms of social justice, of the presuppositions on utopian constructions. In the conditions generally in effect in urban utopias which lay claim to a certain amount of social justice combining equality, fairness and liberty in different ways, equality is likely to interfere with liberty, even create inequalities, and liberty can adapt to inequalities, perhaps even create losses of liberty. Thus, the illusory perfection of Utopia is exposed. Analysis of the mechanisms and operating conditions of urban utopias, which have appeared recurringly especially since the Renaissance, makes it possible to show how the …
Les établissements français de l'Inde et l'Algérie (fin XIXe-XXe siècle) : acculturation juridique, déculturation ou assimilation ?
2008
International audience; La politique coloniale française, à partir de la IIe République, est axée autour d'une volonté assimilationniste dont le corollaire est l'acculturation juridique. Cependant, le maintien des statuts personnels et les résistances des Français d'origine métropolitaine, la limitent au profit d'une association sélective. Ce n'est que lorsque les velléités indépendantistes prennent de l'ampleur que l'assimilation est à nouveau mise en avant, afin de tenter de maintenir les populations locales sous le giron français et de les convaincre des bienfaits de la conception hexagonale du droit. Si la Révolution française a une conception ouverte de la nation, les régimes suivants …
Martinus Garatus Laudensis on Treaties
2004
Introduction Martinus Garatus Laudensis' De confaederatione, pace et conventionibus principum is widely acknowledged as one of the first monographic works on the law of treaties. Whatever the merits of such a characterisation, there is a risk that it may obfuscate some of that work's essential features in its proper legal-historical context. Before considering the substance of the work, it is therefore necessary to consider some of its formal features, if only as a general methodological caveat. Martinus Garatus on the prince and the law Before the second half of the seventeenth century, legal monographs on treaties are scarce. That, of course, does not mean that the rich civil and canon la…

¿Latinoamérica : un desvío necesario? Baltasar Garzón, de Pinochet a Franco
2011
Este artículo nace ante la evidencia de un símil –el reciente movimiento de exhumación de cuerpos de fosas comunes en España se asemeja a la búsqueda de los desaparecidos en Argentina y Chile- y de una « transferencia » a la inversa -España, después de representar un modelo de transición para las naciones del Cono Sur, aprende hoy la lección que le han dejado sus « hijas » americanas y vuelve sobre el consenso silencioso que fundó la reconciliación nacional en los años 1970-1980, como lo demu...
