Pesticides
The use of pesticides is a subject of intense public debate. Whether in media, legal, terminological or political terms, the subject is migrating from a strictly agricultural universe to a global, social problem. Given the complexity of current and future issues, Pesticides provides a forum for multidisciplinary dialogue and debate on plant protection products within the humanities and social sciences. It presents reflections on the discursive and argumentative activity of the various players and arenas in the debate, and on the development and testing of consensus through controversy and counter-discourse. This book examines the scientific and communication practices of economic and industrial players (influence and lobbying), agricultural practices in terms of pesticide exposure, and the legal proceedings and initiatives of local authorities and associations. It also seeks to shed light on the media coverage of health and environmental issues surrounding pesticides.
Manufacturing Government Communication on Covid-19
This book presents a comparative perspective on different government communication strategies to COVID-19 around the globe. Scholars from twenty parts of the world specialized in political and government communication analyze initiatives and methods of various governments' communicative responses to the pandemic. In their contributions to this volume, they examine a wide range of distinct attitudes and reactions facing the crisis. Today’s omnidirectional contact allowed by social media, with its load of contradictory rumors and fake news, often obliterates the citizens' ability to comprehend reality. The book frames a broad canvas on how government communication may deal with that and manage similar crises — bound to happen as climate changes and war menaces are generating more and more worries about the future of humanity. This makes this volume a must-read for scholars and students of political communication, health policies and communication, crisis marketing and communication. It will also be of utmost interest for practitioners and policy-makers from these fields willing to better understand government communication and its answer to global crises.
Maladies rares : l'apport des recherches en sciences humaines et sociales
Les maladies rares se caractérisent par une errance diagnostique, parfois prolongée, qui plonge les familles dans un très grand désespoir. Lorsque le diagnostic est confirmé, de nombreuses incertitudes demeurent, notamment concernant le pronostic et l’évolution de la maladie ainsi que le risque de transmission génétique à la descendance. Cet ouvrage veut contribuer à l’amélioration du parcours de vie et de soin des personnes concernées depuis la recherche de diagnostic jusqu’à la prise en charge et l’accompagnement au quotidien. Soutenues par la Fondation Maladies rares, les recherches présentées visent ainsi à mieux comprendre les conséquences individuelles, familia...

Applied Computer Sciences in Engineering
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Workshop on Engineering Applications, WEA 2021, held in Medellín, Colombia, in October 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held in a hybrid mode. The 33 revised full papers and 11 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 127 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: computational intelligence; bioengineering; Internet of Things (IoT); optimization and operations research; engineering applications.
Positivismos jurídicos (1800-1950).
Este libro expone, de forma general, las principales ideas y autores de los diferentes movimientos o escuelas del positivismo jurídico, en sentido amplio, entre el siglo XIX y la primera mitad del siglo XX. Para tal _n, no solo se acudió a la literatura iusfilosófica, sino que además se complementó con textos iushistóricos, como parte de la estrategia del autor de vincular la filosofía del derecho con la historia de la disciplina. Además, en ciertos casos, se recurrió a la historia política para explicarle al lector el contexto en el que surgieron algunos movimientos y escuelas, pues a _n de cuentas el derecho no es un entramado separado de la sociedad, la política, la economía, ...
American Eccentric Cinema
Since the late 1990s a new language has emerged in film scholarship and criticism in response to the popularity of American directors such as Wes Anderson, Charlie Kaufman, and David O. Russell. Increasingly, adjectives like 'quirky', 'cute', and 'smart' are used to describe these American films, with a focus on their ironic (and sometimes deliberately comical) stories, character situations and tones. Kim Wilkins argues that, beyond the seemingly superficial descriptions, 'American eccentric cinema' presents a formal and thematic eccentricity that is distinct to the American context. She distinguishes these films from mainstream Hollywood cinema as they exhibit irregularities in characterization, tone, and setting, and deviate from established generic conventions. Each chapter builds a case for this position through detailed film analyses and comparisons to earlier American traditions, such as the New Hollywood cinema of the 1960s and 1970s. American Eccentric Cinema promises to challenge the notion of irony in American contemporary cinema, and questions the relationship of irony to a complex national and individual identity.
Pesticides
L’usage des pesticides fait l’objet d’un intense débat public. Que ce soit sur le plan médiatique, juridique, terminologique ou politique, le sujet migre d’un univers strictement agricole vers un problème de société global. Au vu de la complexité des enjeux actuels et à venir, Pesticides se veut un espace favorisant des dialogues et des débats pluridisciplinaires sur les produits phytosanitaires au sein des sciences humaines et sociales. Il présente des réflexions sur l’activité discursive et argumentative des différents acteurs et arènes du débat, sur l’élaboration et la mise à l’épreuve du consensus par des controverses et des contre-discours. L’ouvrage questionne ainsi les pratiques scientifiques et communicationnelles des acteurs économiques et industriels (influence et lobbying), les pratiques agricoles en matière d’exposition aux pesticides ou encore les procédures en justice et les initiatives juridiques des pouvoirs locaux ou des instances associatives. Ces travaux cherchent aussi à mettre en lumière la médiatisation des enjeux sanitaires et environnementaux autour de ces objets.
