The debate over the use of functional ascriptions in science has predominantly considered biological functions and artefact functions. It has been structured between two analyses of the adequate use of a functional ascription: the systemic approach and the etiological approach. Functional ascriptions are used in organic chemistry to define the reactivity of certain structural elements. In this chapter, I describe the use of functions in chemistry, with numerous examples to clarify the subtleties in the relationship between structure, reactivity and functions. (...) I then discuss the until-now unaddressed philosophical implications of this use of functional ascriptions. I argue that functions in chemistry respond to a large part to the systemic program. By analysing chemical functions against Wimsatt’s criteria of aggregativity, I show that chemical functions are non-aggregative and that functional ascriptions are therefore relevant. I discuss how functions in chemistry respond to the etiological approach by taking into account the prebiotic chemical evolution of organic molecules as well as the advances of organic synthetis that have extended the number of functions.

The influence of emotion on episodic and autobiographical memory in schizophrenia was investigated. Using an experiential approach, the states of awareness accompanying recollection of pictures from the IAPS and of associated autobiographical memories was recorded. Results show that schizophrenia impairs episodic and autobiographical memories in their critical feature: autonoetic awareness, i.e., the type of awareness experienced when mentally reliving events from one’s past. Schizophrenia was also associated with a reduction of specific autobiographical memories. The impact of stimulus valence on memory (...) performance was moderated by clinical status. Patients with schizophrenia recognized more positive than negative pictures, and recalled more positive than negative autobiographical memories while controls displayed the opposite pattern. A hypothesis in terms of a fundamental executive deficit underlying these impairments is proposed. (shrink)

Après trente ans de suppression, le rétablissement de la sociologie en Chine au début des années 1980 et son développement jusqu’à aujourd’hui offrent un cas critique d’analyse des conditions politiques, sociales et intellectuelles d’existence de la discipline. Comment cette science supprimée, violemment critiquée puis réhabilitée par le régime communiste se reconstruit-elle ? L’article présente le processus de reconstitution de la discipline, en mettant en lumière les formes d’engagement des différentes générations de chercheurs, les ressources qu’ils mobilisent ainsi que les débats (...) qu’ils soulèvent. Il analyse ensuite les productions sociologiques et leurs évolutions à partir de deux perspectives,les transformations de la société chinoise et la question de la modernisation.After being banned for thirty years, sociology has been allowed again in China in the early 80s, and its development to date provides a critical case for the study of the political, social and intellectual conditions essential for the existence of the discipline. How did this science, which was discarded, violently criticized and then rehabilitated by the communist regime manage to reconstruct ? The article first describes the discipline’s reconstitution process, focusing on the commitment patterns of different generations of sociologists, on the resources they mobilize, as well as on the debates they raise. The sociological productions and their evolutions are eventually analysed through two perspectives, the transformations of the Chinese society and the issue of modernization. (shrink)

Dans son ouvrage, Delphine Gardey, historienne et sociologue, spécialiste du genre et des techniques, retrace l’histoire méconnue du clitoris, ou plus précisément, elle décrit la construction des savoirs et des discours sur le clitoris à travers le temps. En partant d’un simple objet (mais il est vrai, qui est loin d’être neutre), le clitoris, traversé par de multiples rapports de pouvoir, elle interroge le lien entre science, société et politique, ou pour reprendre Foucault, le lien entre sa...

En s’intéressant aux rythmes et aux temporalités associés à l’utilisation des espaces de coworking, cet article a vocation à rendre compte de la manière dont les coworkers, en majorité indépendants et télétravailleurs salariés à distance, utilisent l’espace pour concilier vie personnelle et vie professionnelle, contraintes professionnelles et aspirations à un mode de vie. Nous montrons que la présence dans les espaces de coworking est fréquemment associée à des transitions et des bifurcations aussi bien professionnelles que résidentielles, mettant en évidence des (...) rationalités qui relèvent du projet de vie. Confrontées à de nouvelles contraintes temporelles et spatiales générées par le statut de télétravailleur ou d’indépendant, ces personnes trouvent dans le coworking une manière de borner spatialement le travail. En offrant un lieu dédié à l’activité professionnelle, en instaurant des rythmes collectifs et en libérant l’espace domestique du travail, les espaces de coworking peuvent alors servir d’outils de régulation des temporalités. Cependant, alors que la littérature sur le coworking a beaucoup insisté sur sa dimension flexible et agile, notre étude met en évidence la permanence de l’importance des cadres spatiaux et sociaux de l’activité dans l’articulation entre rythmes individuels et sociaux.

Symbiosis is a form of reticulate evolution that refers to ecological, physiological, and genomic associations between organisms from different species, resulting in interactions, bonds, coexistence, cohabitation, and partnerships. Symbiosis can lead to the emergence of new biological individuals, known as holobionts, that simultaneously function as new units and levels or life zones of evolution. When symbiosis becomes permanent and hereditary, it leads to symbiogenesis or evolution through symbiosis. This entry focuses on the history of the symbiosis theory. Symbiosis research emerged (...) in the 18th century in both botany and zoology, driven by ecological studies of associations between different organisms. Ecological symbiosis research is intellectually rooted in the fields of natural philosophy and natural history. Like the theory of natural selection, theories of symbiosis were initially linked to sociocultural and political ideas about the organizational structure of society, as well as to debates on the nature and redistribution of “common goods” and the “division of labor” in the “economy of nature.” Symbiosis jargon, in part, drove the development of the biomedical and physiological sciences, where scholars commenced research on the influence microorganisms and viruses have on health and disease. Research on the evolutionary impact of symbiosis emerged in the late 19th century, following the discovery of intracellular symbiosis and its role in the origin of cellular structures. This helped pave the way for theories on symbiogenesis. (shrink)

Symbiogenesis denotes host and/or symbiont evolution through long-term symbiosis. Studied and defined multiple times over in the early 20th century by independently working scholars, including Famintzin, Mereschkowski, Kozo-Polyansky, Wallin, and Lederberg, symbiogenesis was brought to the attention of contemporary evolutionary science from the 1960s onward through the comprehensive works of Lynn Margulis who defined symbiogenesis as “the origin of a new organ, metabolic pathway, behavior, tissue, or other feature as a result of long-term hereditary symbiosis, [. which] includes the process (...) by which organelles of the eukaryotic cell evolved from ancient bacterial symbionts.” Symbiogenesis is today wellrecognized for underlying the evolution of mitochondria and chloroplasts, which are eukaryotic cell organelles that originated from bacteria that engaged in endosymbiotic relationships with some of the earliest nucleated cells, some 2 billion years ago. Not confined to that period in time, endosymbiosis, or the phenomenon where organisms live inside other organisms (endosymbionts live inside a host), is quite common amongst eukaryotic organisms that often carry varied microbial communities in their body cavities and, albeit to a lesser extent, inside specific cells (intracellular endosymbiosis). This entry details the events that led to the formulation and wider academic recognition of symbiogenesis theory, its opposition to certain tenets of the Neodarwinian synthesis, and its integration into the emerging Reticulate Evolution school. As such, this entry presents a historical account of what was once a marginal theory that has now become essential for understanding the evolution of life. (shrink)

DREAM complexes are transcriptional regulators that control the expression of hundreds to thousands of target genes involved in the cell cycle, quiescence, differentiation, and apoptosis. These complexes contain many subunits that can vary according to the considered target genes. Depending on their composition and the nature of the partners they recruit, DREAM complexes control gene expression through diverse mechanisms, including chromatin remodeling, transcription cofactor and factor recruitment at various genomic binding sites. This complexity is particularly high in mammals. Since the (...) discovery of the first dREAM complex (drosophila Rb, E2F, and Myb) in Drosophila melanogaster, model organisms such as Caenorhabditis elegans, and plants allowed a deeper understanding of the processes regulated by DREAM‐like complexes. Here, we review the conservation of these complexes. We discuss the contribution of model organisms to the study of DREAM‐mediated transcriptional regulatory mechanisms and their relevance in characterizing novel activities of DREAM complexes.

Cet article rend compte des modes d'utilisation et d'accès aux TIC au Japon, sous l'angle des controverses et des défis qui se présentent aux différentes générations. Pour les parents, il s'agit d'assurer un environnement informatique sans risque tout en aidant leurs enfants à découvrir des informations en ligne et à en tirer le meilleur parti. Quant aux adultes en général, les inégalités existantes déterminent la nature et les modes d'utilisation des TIC. En conclusion, l'article suggère qu'Internet présente non pas un (...) moyen d'expression transparent à une société civile pré-existante, mais soulève au contraire des problématiques classiques dans la société civile japonaise, ayant trait par exemple à l'égalité, à l'intégration et à la participation aux délibérations civiques.This article reports on usage patterns and access to ICTs in Japan, in terms of controversies and challenges that arise between generations. For parents, it is to ensure a safe computing environment while helping their children discover information online and get the best. For adults in general, existing inequalities determine the nature and patterns of use of ICT. In conclusion, the article suggests that the Internet has not a transparent medium of a pre-existing civil society, but instead raises issues in traditional Japanese civil society, for example in relation to equality, integration and civic participation in the deliberations.

L’univers de Kafka présente, selon Hannah Arendt, un conflit entre un monde où les hommes obéissent aveuglément à des règles leur paraissant inéluctables et un héros qui s’engage sur une voie divergente. Dans une société dont les lois semblent s’imposer à tous comme si elles provenaient d’une Puissance divine, l’objectif de K. consiste « simplement » à tenter d’obtenir le minimum requis pour l’existence humaine, sans accepter que la satisfaction de cette ambition ne prenne la forme d’un don ou d’un (...) privilège. Sa requête représente, aux yeux d’Arendt, la « bonne volonté ». Elle dévoile le caractère implacable des engrenages qui absorbent les vies humaines, met en évidence les structures cachées de l’organisation sociale et les impasses de l’assimilation. Arendt analyse le sens de cette « bonne volonté » dans un monde régi par des règles iniques et arbitraires, en examinant la marge de manœuvre d’un homme isolé en quête de droits proprement humains.

Lors des dernières élections de mars 2008, le parti au pouvoir a perdu sa majorité des deux tiers pour la première fois depuis 1969. Ce phénomène qualifié de « tsunami politique » selon les critères locaux a été attribué entre autres à la montée des nouveaux médias. Ceci, ajouté à la libéralisation de l'espace démocratique dans le pays, s'est traduit par la prolifération de blogs politiques et de portails d'informations parallèles, et par l'usage des nouvelles technologies dans la campagne électorale (...) de l'opposition. Cela devrait avoir des implications significatives dans les prochaines élections alors que la Malaysia accueillera quatre millions de nouveaux électeurs. Une grande partie de cet électorat est non seulement jeune mais également urbain, plus exigeant et critique par rapport aux médias traditionnels et aux anciennes modes politiques.In the last elections of March 2008, the ruling party lost its two-thirds majority for the first time since 1969. This phenomenon called "political tsunami" by local standards was awarded among others the rise of new media. This, coupled with the liberalization of the democratic space in the country, has resulted in the proliferation of political blogs and news portals parallel, and the use of new technologies in the election campaign of the opposition. This would have significant implications in the next elections while Malaysia will host four million new voters. A large part of the electorate is not only young but also urban, more demanding and critical of traditional media and the old political ways. (shrink)

This paper proposes an analysis for the long-standing puzzle observed by Chemla (2007) regarding the anti-duality of the French universal quantifier tous, which arises even though French has no word for ‘both’ to feed a Maximize Presupposition competition. This phenomenon has been cited as an example in language where a dual ‘conceptual alternative’ is at play (Buccola et al., 2018), but no formal account of it has been put forth. Furthermore, a naive implementation of the idea overgenerates anti-duality inferences in (...) other expressions, such as each, which, and one in English and French, which might be expected to be observed due to anti-dual counterparts in some languages like Icelandic and Japanese. We propose an account where French tous has an unpronounceable dual universal alternative built from a dual core concept, competition with which is licensed by the existence of a pronounceable expression equivalent in meaning, which we call an ‘Indirect Alternative’. This proposal accounts for tous’s anti-duality and lack of anti-$n$-ality for $n>2$, as well as the lack of anti-duality in other quantifiers. (shrink)

Human–animal relationships, including ethic of care relationships, are of growing interest to organization studies, reflecting the substantial role of animals in organizing processes. While some scholars approach these as working relationships, few studies examine the organizational routines established to manage animals in the period after they have been retired due to age, illness, or lack of productiveness. Through a multiple case study of four contrasting sectors in France (dairy ewes, horses, experimental animals, hens), we take a Foucauldian theoretical standpoint, based (...) on the concept of ‘Dispositif,’ to map and analyze the different patterns and dynamics of this organizational routine. Our results indicate that ‘death’ organizational patterns are the most common, with animals other than horses typically being killed immediately upon retirement. However, operators often attempt to implement work-around organizational patterns to ‘save’ animals and ensure them a decent retirement. We explore the numerous and complex interactions between heterogeneous elements that form the different patterns of the routine (actors, instruments, discourses, values, places, machines, etc.), to explain how the routine is both a driver and a result of ‘ethical blindness’ or ‘ethical foresight’ in the management of culled animals. We then interpret the dynamic of the routine as a complex interplay between three major dispositives that govern our relationships with animals. Unfolding and understanding this interplay is useful for progressively acting on various levers (such as artifacts of the routine) and for collectively endeavoring toward a long-term commitment to ethical foresight.

BackgroundWith the emergence of Brain Computer Interfaces, clinicians have been facing a new group of patients with severe acquired brain injury who are unable to show any behavioral sign of consciousness but respond to active neuroimaging or electrophysiological paradigms. However, even though well documented, there is still no consensus regarding the nomenclature for this clinical entity.ObjectivesThis systematic review aims to 1) identify the terms used to indicate the presence of this entity through the years, and 2) promote an informed discussion (...) regarding the rationale for these names and the best candidates to name this fascinating disorder.MethodsThe Disorders of Consciousness Special Interest Group of the International Brain Injury Association launched a search on Pubmed and Google scholar following PRISMA guidelines to collect peer-reviewed articles and reviews on human adults published in English between 2006 and 2021.ResultsThe search launched in January 2021 identified 4,089 potentially relevant titles. After screening, 1,126 abstracts were found relevant. Finally, 161 manuscripts were included in our analyses. Only 58% of the manuscripts used a specific name to discuss this clinical entity, among which 32% used several names interchangeably throughout the text. We found 25 different names given to this entity. The five following names were the ones the most frequently used: covert awareness, cognitive motor dissociation, functional locked-in, non-behavioral MCS and higher-order cortex motor dissociation.ConclusionSince 2006, there has been no agreement regarding the taxonomy to use for unresponsive patients who are able to respond to active neuroimaging or electrophysiological paradigms. Developing a standard taxonomy is an important goal for future research studies and clinical translation. We recommend a Delphi study in order to build such a consensus. (shrink)

European firms are currently in a process of transition toward a circular economy, which is expected to guarantee sustainable growth over time. Developing eco-efficient practices is a necessary step in this transition. This study analyzes the impact of stakeholder engagement in a circular business ecosystem on the development of these circular eco-efficient practices. Past literature has evidenced the impact of stakeholder environmental pressure on firm strategic decisions and outcomes. We adopt the stakeholder theory from a more recent vision, arguing that (...) “shaking stakeholders up” within a circular ecosystem is a more advanced strategy than the traditional approach of reacting to stakeholder pressure. Using structural equation modeling, we examine the data of 14,726 European firms and their relationships with five primary stakeholder groups. The results offer theoretical and empirical support for the idea that firms can go further in adopting eco-efficient circular practices by shaking stakeholders up, selecting them, and managing relationships with them.

Background: Spasticity following a stroke occurs in about 30% of patients. The mechanisms underlying this disorder, however, are not well understood. Method: This review aims to define spasticity, describe hypotheses explaining its development after a stroke, give an overview of related neuroimaging studies as well as a description of the most common scales used to quantify the degree of spasticity and finally explore which treatments are currently being used to treat this disorder.

Cet article s’intéresse au couple à distance dans le contexte de l’expatriation. La réflexion porte sur les effets des séparations et des retrouvailles à travers la distance géographique, qui met progressivement en évidence l’étrangeté de soi et de l’autre dans les liens de couple. L’étrangeté peut s’éprouver de façon plus ou moins accentuée selon la culture du pays d’expatriation. La rencontre avec un couple dont les entretiens se sont déroulés en chinois illustre ces enjeux et interroge la position du clinicien (...) dans sa double position dans le transfert et le contretransfert. L’article montre par ailleurs en quoi le virtuel à travers la tablette peut devenir un espace de jeu et de créativité au sens de Winnicott et entretenir l’illusion de la non-séparation. Il peut devenir un espace de besoin, qui peut faire barrage à une désillusion nécessaire et repousser les véritables retrouvailles du couple. (shrink)

L'émergence des TIC et deux changements politiques successifs ont amené une troisième vague de mouvements sociaux à Taïwan. Ces mouvements ont commencé à s'affranchir des partis politiques ; ils se préoccupent de problèmes sociaux et mobilisent différents modes de participation à la base. Cependant, les TIC ne peuvent à elles seules garantir leur succès. La plupart des études sur les nouveaux mouvements sociaux suggèrent que les TIC accroissent l'adhésion à ces mouvements parmi la population, ce qui facilite leur extension. Cette (...) étude analyse deux mouvements récents au sein de la société civile taïwanaise et conclut que ni la théorie de la mobilisation des ressources ni la théorie des nouveaux mouvements sociaux ne montrent comment les TIC seraient suffisantes pour structurer les mouvements de la société civile. En l'absence d'organisation concrète et réelle de la société civile, la participation purement virtuelle de la base risque d'en compromettre le leadership, la mobilisation, les prises de décision et les liens au niveau international.The emergence of ICT and two successive political changes have led to a third wave of social movements in Taiwan. These movements have begun to overcome the political parties they are concerned about social issues and mobilizing different modes of grassroots participation. However, ICT alone can not guarantee success. Most studies on new social movements suggest that ICTs increase adherence to these movements among the population, which facilitates their extension. This study analyzes two recent movements in civil society Taiwanese and concludes that neither the theory nor the resource mobilization theory of new social movements did not show how ICT would be sufficient to organize the movement of civil society. In the absence of concrete and actual organization of civil society participation purely virtual database could compromise leadership, advocacy, decision-making and international links. (shrink)

At the 2019 and 2021 International Conference on Environmental Psychology, discussions were held on the future of conferences in light of the enormous greenhouse gas emissions and inequities associated with conference travel. In this manuscript, we provide an early career researcher perspective on this discussion. We argue that travel-intensive conference practices damage both the environment and our credibility as a discipline, conflict with the intrinsic values and motivations of our discipline, and are inequitable. As such, they must change. This change (...) can be achieved by moving toward virtual and hybrid conferences, which can reduce researchers’ carbon footprints and promote equity, if employed carefully and with informal exchange as a priority. By acting collectively and with the support of institutional change, we can adapt conference travel norms in our field. To investigate whether our arguments correspond to views in the wider community of ECRs within environmental psychology, we conducted a community case study. By leveraging our professional networks and directly contacting researchers in countries underrepresented in those networks, we recruited 117 ECRs in 32 countries for an online survey in February 2022. The surveyed ECRs supported a change in conference travel practices, including flying less, and perceived the number of researchers wanting to reduce their travel emissions to be growing. Thirteen percent of respondents had even considered leaving academia due to travel requirements. Concerning alternative conference formats, a mixed picture emerged. Overall, participants had slightly negative evaluations of virtual conferences, but expected them to improve within the next 5 years. However, ECRs with health issues, facing visa challenges, on low funding, living in remote areas, with caretaking obligations or facing travel restrictions due to COVID-19 expected a switch toward virtual or hybrid conferences to positively affect their groups. Participants were divided about their ability to build professional relationships in virtual settings, but believed that maintaining relationships virtually is possible. We conclude by arguing that the concerns of ECRs in environmental psychology about current and alternative conference practices must be taken seriously. We call on our community to work on collective solutions and less travel-intensive conference designs using participatory methods. (shrink)

According to mental model theory, illusory inferences are a class of deductions in which individuals systematically go wrong. Mental model theory explains them invoking the principle of truth, which is a tendency not to represent models that falsify the premises. In this paper we focus on the illusory problems based on conditional sentences. In three experiments, we show that: (a) rather than not representing models that falsify the conditionals, participants have a different understanding of what falsifies a conditional (Experiment I); (...) (b) specifically, participants think that a conditional with an impossible antecedent or consequent is false (Experiment 2); (c) if the domain of the conditionals in the illusory problems are expanded to show that their antecedents and consequents are possible, the participants find it easy to reach the correct conclusions (Experiment 3). According to our results, the illusory inferences based on conditional premises, differently from those based on disjunctive premises, are caused by a difference between the understanding of natural language factual conditionals and the truth table of the factual implication; the principle of truth is not necessary to explain them.

Non. Le débat philosophique africain, quoi que disent certains censeurs à l'esprit obtus, est, en tous points de vue, (...) fécond, même si on peut déplorer ici et là de mémorables égarements. Il faut souligner, en toute honnêteté, la jeunesse et même l'inexpérience de cette pensée philosophique négro-africaine qui cherche encore ses marques et sa propre voie.
