In a recently published chapter (“Competition for Hegemony ” in the edited volume Cosmopolitanism in Hard Times), Professor of political science at Sciences Po CERI Frédéric Ramel questions these concepts and explores their scope. The following is an interview with the author. Interview by Miriam Perier, CERI
The State from its Margins: A perspective from street level Turkey
No full textMuhtars, the lowest-level elected political position in Turkey, hold an ambiguously defined place within the administrative hierarchy. Research Professor at CERI Elise Massicard is the author of Street-Level Governing (Stanford University Press ), the first book to investigate how muhtars carry out their role—not only what they are supposed to do, but how they actually operate—providing an ethnographic study of the state as viewed from its margins. She answers our questions on the muhtar as a hybrid object and her research

Space, place and scale: reframing the open method of co-ordination for ‘Education and Training 2010’
No full textIn this paper I argue that we can usefully address the nature, significance and range of effects of the OMC for Education and Training by adopting the theoretical perspectives on space, place and scale from the fields of economic geography and state theory. In particular, the distinctions offered by Collinge (1999), Brenner (2001), Jessop (2004, 2005) and Barbier (2004) provide a framework for investigating and problematising some of the sedimented and increasingly common sense assessments of the production of the European education space, the activities and practices in the Brussels policy places and the production of a scale of authority at the EU level. Methodologically, this paper follows Scharpf (2001) in wanting to pursue lines of argumentation which outline clear distinctions which make a difference in the way in which we conceive of the subjects and objects of study. The aim is to go against the grain of judgements which have become common place and which cut at the joints of explanations which have been offered

Dictatorship of Law and a Power Vertical under Putin
No full textEntretien publié sur le site du CERIGilles Favarel-Garrigues, Senior researcher at CERI/CNRS, has recently published La verticale de la peur. Ordre et allégeance en Russie poutinienne (The Verticality of Fear. Order and allegiance in Putin's Russia) with La Découverte. In his book based on twenty years of research, Gilles Favarel-Garrigues explores the political and social roots of Putinism, and how fear has become a pillar of the Russian president’s geopolitics. The book offers original keys to understanding how such a destructive power endures and, perhaps, how it extends far beyond the walls of the Kremlin. The following is an interview with the author.

Addiction recovery stories: Ceri Pimblett in conversation with Lisa Ogilvie
No full textPurpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine recovery through lived experience. It is part of a series that explores candid accounts of addiction and recovery to identify important components in the recovery process. Design/methodology/approach: The G-CHIME model comprises six elements important to addiction recovery (growth, connectedness, hope, identity, meaning in life and empowerment). It provides a standard against which to consider addiction recovery, having been used in this series, as well as in the design of interventions that improve well-being and strengthen recovery. In this paper, a first-hand account is presented, followed by a semi-structured e-interview with the author of the account. Narrative analysis is used to explore the account and interview through the G-CHIME model. Findings: This paper shows that addiction recovery is a remarkable process that can be effectively explained using the G-CHIME model. The significance of each component in the model is apparent from the account and e-interview presented. Originality/value: Each account of recovery in this series is unique and, as yet, untold
Blackpool South Strategy project: analysis of pipe-jacking records
No full textIn recent years, there has been an increased resort to microtunnelling/pipe-jacking as a means of constructing underground conduits (for water, sewage, gas and other utilities) to avoid on-street disruption in urban areas. In this paper, technical details of two 1200 mm internal diameter microtunnels in silty sand totalling 550 m in length are discussed; the microtunnels were constructed by Ward and Burke Construction Ltd. as part of the Blackpool South Strategy project. A general overview of the tunnelling process is provided, including the separation plant, jacking facilities and the bentonite supply process. The results show that the lubrication system was very effective at maintaining low skin friction levels, and that the pipe string was almost fully buoyant for the majority of the drive. Stoppages were shown to have a significant but transient effect on the jacking force; high jacking forces upon resumption of jacking after a stoppage return to ‘baseline’ levels after the length of one pipe diameter. Machine deviations did not appear to play a major role in increasing jacking forces for this particular project.The first author is funded by an Irish Research Council Enterprise Partnership Scheme (IRC-EPS) Postgraduate Scholarship, with Ward and Burke Construction Limited as the industry partner. The third author is supported by the Royal Academy of Engineering (U.K.) under the Research Fellowship Scheme.non-peer-reviewe
