Représentations sociales de la lutte sénégalaise : perspectives d'élaboration de contenus
No full textA la fois pratique sportive et artistique, la lutte est un phénomène immense au Sénégal. Elle s'inscrit aujourd'hui dans le processus de passage des jeux aux sports selon le phénomène de sportivisation des jeux traditionnels, malgré son ancrage dans l'imaginaire sénégalais, lié au monde des croyances et des superstitions. Cette étude vise à approcher l'étayage des représentations des élèves, des enseignants, et des acteurs extrascolaires. Il s'agit de faire ressortir les points saillants des représentations sociales de la lutte sénégalaise, d'en étudier leur nature et d'en estimer l'importance, afin d'envisager leur utilité dans la construction d'une forme de lutte scolaire en EPS et le choix des modes d'entrées dans l'activité. Le croisement des réponses fournies par les enseignants, les élèves et les acteurs extrascolaires permet de découvrir la structuration des représentations utilisées dans l'activité et il renseigne sur la culture de l'activité qu'il conviendrait de transmettre à l'élève en EPS
Who would vote for inflation in Brazil? : an integrated framework approach to inflation and income distribution
No full textMost studies of how inflation affects income distribution focus only on wages or the inflation tax. The authors argue that this approach can be misleading as it ignores important channels through which inflation affects income distribution. The authors present an integrated framework that combines interest bearing assets with labor income and cash holdings. This allows them to describe clearly the conditions under which inflation will create gainers and losers. They apply the model to Brazil, which is a prime candidate for this exercise because its economy combines skewed income distribution and high inflation. They show that in Brazil inflation helped worsen income distribution in the 1980s. Their major findings follow. In 1980-1989, the inflation induced income loss for the lowest quintile in Brazil was an estimated 19 percent a year, of which 16 percent is attributable to the erosion of real wages and the rest to the inflation tax. During the same period, Brazil's middle class which lost close to 30 percent of its annual income, was devastated because of its limited access to indexed assets. But the richest quintile managed to insulate itself from inflation by taking advantage of high real interest on demand deposits - without losing from reduced labor income. Had real assets and subsidized credits been considered in the analysis, the regressive effects on inflation would probably have been worse, say the authors. This raises aquestion: Do these findings about the distributional effects of inflation help explain Brazil's delays in adopting a stabilization program?Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Economic Conditions and Volatility,Inequality,Banks&Banking Reform
Ground-state blowing-up solutions for a Hardy-Sobolev equations on a manifold
No full textVersion à paraître au "Journal of Geometric Analysis"International audienceWe prove the existence of blowing-up families of solutions to an equation of Hardy-Sobolev type in high dimensions. These families are of minimal type. The sole condition is that the potential of the linear operator touches a critical potential at the singular point. This condition is sharp as shown by the first author in [Cheikh-Ali, Pacific J. of Math. 2022]
