    Les territoires des transitions énergétiques. Nucléaire et énergies renouvelables en Italie et en France

    No full text
    La « transition énergétique » est aujourd’hui présentée dans le dé­bat public sur le mode de l’évidence, comme si nos sociétés allaient connaître un même mouvement pour passer des mauvaises énergies fossiles aux bonnes énergies renouvelables. L’analyse sous le seul angle des politiques internationales ne suffit cependant pas à en sai­sir les conditions. Dans cet ouvrage, les auteurs proposent d’observer les réorientations énergétiques au présent comme au passé, « par le haut » comme « par le bas », telles qu’elles se négocient localement dans les territoires d’installation du nucléaire et des énergies renou­velables photovoltaïques et éoliennes. Les enquêtes socio-historiques menées dans différents contextes locaux en Italie et en France mo­tivent la comparaison entre ces deux pays de la Méditerranée, contras­tés en termes de mix énergétique et de dynamiques de choix : avec un nucléaire en déconstruction en Italie et toujours dominant dans la production électrique française ; avec des développements d’énergies renouvelables plus avancés en Italie qu’en France ; et avec des diffi­cultés semblables pour se défaire du pétrole et du gaz. Dans les deux cas, les processus territoriaux de transition énergétique interrogent les choix des politiques publiques oscillant entre la décentralisation ré­gionale et la tentation constante de recentralisation étatique

    Relancer l’État atomique. Industrie, territoire et société en conflit autour du programme nucléaire italien (1975-1985)

    No full text
    This chapter examines the conflicts that accompanied the building of the Trino 2 nuclear power plant in the Piedmont region between the mid-1970s and the mid-1980s. It focuses in particular on the relationship between the Italian government, the public utility company ENEL (Ente nazionale per l’energia elettrica) in charge of building the plant, the region, the municipalities involved in the project, and the local population, organized around different associations and interest groups. The chapter focuses in particular on the forms of opposition carried out by farmers in an area devoted to rice and wine growing. During the 1970s, rice and wine growers emerged as a particularly important social and economic category, capable of influencing political decisions at a local and regional level. They promoted a vision of the territory that revolved around a high-quality agricultural production intended for export, especially in the European market. For them, the expansion of nuclear policies represented a dangerous threat. By establishing alliances with political parties and social movements and organizing demonstrations, rice and wine growers were able to slow down the plan to build the Trino 2 nuclear power plant

    The alter-globalist counter-discourse in European rhetoric and translation. Women's rights at the European Parliament

    Full text link
    This chapter intends to observe the effects of alter-globalist counter-discourses (i.e. the ATTAC association) on the European Parliament speeches about Women’s Rights between 2004 and 2012. French discourse analysts usually describe international discourse as neutral and void of conflict. In a European perspective, this would mean that counter-discourses about EU politics, society and identity are neutralised by the presence of an internal hegemonic discourse. Nevertheless, the close observation of data reveals a complex relationships between discourse and counter-discourse, as both contribute to the creation of hegemonic discourse. In the case of Women’s rights, it is possible to observe how the ATTAC counter-discourse can have important effects on European Parliament rhetoric and also on the translation of EU Reports (EN/FR). Thus, this chapter aims to analyse this kind of influences both in a discursive perspective and in a translation perspective

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
