Future trends in global blindness
No full textThe objective of this review is to discuss the available data on the prevalence and causes of global blindness, and some of the associated trends and limitations seen. A literature search was conducted using the terms "global AND blindness" and "global AND vision AND impairment", resulting in seven appropriate articles for this review. Since 1990 the estimate of global prevalence of blindness has gradually decreased when considering the best corrected visual acuity definition: 0.71% in 1990, 0.59% in 2002, and 0.55% in 2010, corresponding to a 0.73% reduction per year over the 2002-2010 period. Significant limitations were found in the comparability between the global estimates in prevalence or causes of blindness or visual impairment. These limitations arise from various factors such as uncertainties about the true cause of the impairment, the use of different definitions and methods, and the absence of data from a number of geographical areas, leading to various extrapolation methods, which in turn seriously limit comparability. Seminal to this discussion on limitations in the comparability of studies and data, is that blindness has historically been defined using best corrected visual acuity

No full textSerge LeBlanc, who was born and raised in Sainte-Marie-de-Kent—a small town approximately 45km from the City of Moncton in New Brunswick, Canada—is a proud Southeast Acadian known affectionately to his friends and colleagues as ‘Bâyo’.

He has worked with the Moncton Wildcats of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL), with Team Canada at the World Junior Championship, and with is currently the equipment manager for the Canadian Women’s National Hockey Team. In addition to looking after some of the world’s best athletes, Serge is a husband and father who works as the head equipment manager for all sports at the Université de Moncton, the country’s first Acadian university and also the largest francophone university outside of Quebec. This essay provides a brief history of the Acadian people and will then overview a conversation Serge had with the first author (also an Acadian from Moncton) about his heritage, his experiences in hockey, and how he believes that the two overlap
Le retour de la culture républicaine
No full textThe return of republican culture, Serge Berstein.
At a time of an apparently general crisis, the author pleads for optimism with convincing arguments. The original republican culture has certainly experienced major changes. It has weathered storms. But it remains the common denominator, the consensual ensemble which vivifies that the political culture of the French.Berstein Serge. Le retour de la culture républicaine.

L'historien et la culture politique
No full textThe historian and political culture, Serge Berstein.
Beyond the criticism against the inconsiderate use of the concept of political culture, the author proposes to justify its use by the political historian. Using the French example, he suggests a definition of the concept (political culture and dominant culture) before outlining distinctions (plural families of political cultures) and emphasizing its dynamic aspect.Berstein Serge. L'historien et la culture politique. In: Vingtième Siècle, revue d'histoire, n°35, juillet-septembre 1992. pp. 67-77
Sur le curé Meslier, précurseur du matérialisme
No full textON THE CURE MESLIER, FORERUNNER OF MATERIALISMN
This text is concerned with the place of the curé Meslier in the field of French philosophy and ideology.
The author insists on the strong originality of this thinker of the beginning of the XVIIIth century.
He shows how far in advance the curé was on his time, in the fields of atheism, materialism, communism and revolutionist thought.
He points out that Meslier represents a break with cartesianism, that is, the gap between La Méthode 'system and materialism.
The author argues that this great progress in the history of ideas was possible, not in spite of, but because of Meslier 's lack of knowledge of the philosophical ideas which announced the Enlightenment.
