This article proposes the concept of ‘chronopolitics’ as a heuristic for a kind of decolonial imagination in migration studies, one that insists on structural changes as opposed to those relational ones that dominate the field. The article argues that migration scholars should question the coloniality of key concepts they use in their work to understand how the ‘solutions’ they propose (re)embed a colonial world and view. Building on previous critiques of migration studies, the article proposes that a chronopolitical argument to decolonising migration studies reveals the intrinsic connectivity of temporal and geographical linkages, in order to relate migration research epistemologies to ontological problems. This can allow the migration discourse to move beyond the centre, to address the current ‘black burden’ of ambivalent academic positioning and predominant methodological and conceptual approaches to migration studies. In these ways, chronopolitics adds conceptually to an underexplored debate in the field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Just before the First World War, the largest French shipping line operating in the Indo-Pacific, the Compagnie des Messageries Maritimes, reported that 44 percent of its personnel were non-Europeans. Made up of French colonial subjects and foreign citizens, this workforce hailed from across the layover ports of the empire's Indo-Pacific steamship highways. Portrayed by French labor leaders as strikebreaking scabs, and by the large shipping companies as docile peons, these "indigenous" seafarers were largely erased from French imperial and labor history before the First World War. Mobilizing archives from France, the United Kingdom, and Vietnam, especially ships' logs from the 1880s to the 1910s, this article reassesses the place of the French empire's Asian and African seafarers within an intensifying labor movement and an incipient imperial security state. Revisiting everything from mobile acts of outright rebellion to subtly assertive practices of placemaking, the article argues that indigenous seafarers had begun forging a disruptive politics of mobile labor well before the First World War. Their ability to wield power in the face of stigmatization and precarization, the article suggests, points to the underexplored tensions between the "New Imperial" French state and the subcontracted shipping lines on which it depended.

Various measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have altered mobility flows worldwide and caused people to adopt new ways of being and moving in public space. These changes have been considerably pronounced across modes of public transportation. This paper explores the experiences of individuals who continued riding and working in public transport throughout the pandemic to yield insight into changing mobility meanings and grounded realities of urban mobility processes in the context of COVID-19 and beyond. Through the combined analysis of ethnographic fieldwork, participant observations and interviews, the paper unpacks lived experiences of riding and working in public transport in the city of Amsterdam during lockdown by addressing the changed nature of embodied encounters and mobile sociability in public transit. Findings denote that COVID-19 has altered the conditions of mobile sociability in spaces of public transport, and has produced complex experiences of daily travel with others involving mutually negative and positive impressions. As a result, we argue that when challenged by COVID-19 related restrictions, mobile sociability and fleeting encounters on the move significantly shape the experience of traveling with others in ways that call into question how we think of public transport as a social space in cities.

The importance of mobility in Canada's history can hardly be overstated. The built waterways, railways, and roadways that allowed for the movement of peoples, goods, and ideas within the country have long been considered cultural icons conveying collective ideas of Canadian identity. Yet, little has been written on the history of the modern construction machines that made this mobility infrastructure possible after Confederation, along with their designers, manufacturers, and operators. This article helps fill that gap by examining the technological development, manufacturing, and commercialization of earthmoving equipment in Canada (especially Ontario) in the 1860s-1920s, a period of great construction activity, including two of the world's largest civil engineering and earthmoving projects and one of the fastest-expanding road networks in North America. It discusses the role of the federal, provincial, and municipal governments in developing, adopting, and disseminating this technology, and their ultimate reliance on American manufacturers despite the National Policy's protectionism. This article supports the argument that technological development in Canada during the Second Industrial Revolution was continentally integrated in ways that involved technological dialogue with American companies, associations, and publications. While this manufacturing sector became dominated by American corporations by the First World War, the extent to and manner by which that happened varied depending on the type of machinery and the construction sectors in which they were used. The technological transition from steam-powered machines to electric, gasoline, and diesel motors and how it impacted Canadian manufacturers are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mobility can involve many barriers that make it challenging for individuals with disabilities to travel. When it is a child who has a disability, the whole family’s mobility practices can be affected by those barriers since families’ mobilities are often intertwined. This paper is based on time-use diaries and interviews with parents of wheelchair-using children living in Sweden. A time-geographical framework is used in the paper, especially focusing on the concept of coupling constraints, which can emerge when individuals need to be together to perform an activity, such as mobility. The main focus is on how coupling constraints between parents and the disabled child affect mobilities, but the findings show that couplings also exist with authorities and things and these can increase coupling constraints within the family. However, if being eligible for personal assistance and special transport service the coupling constraints within the family can decrease, indicating that such support systems are fundamental for these families’ mobilities. This paper also shows that time geography can be useful for disability studies and add new dimensions to the relational perspective on disability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper problematizes the neglect of spatiality and materiality of international branch campuses in extant studies and challenges the predominant representation of transnational education students merely in terms of their corporeal immobility. Based on a case study of a UK international branch campus in China, this paper incorporates interview narratives and ethnographic observations to reveal the students' experiences and imaginations, and to delineate the unique texture of the spatiality of the campus. In examining the dynamic interrelations between imagination, materiality, and (im)mobility in transnational educational spaces, this paper highlights the students' imaginative process, in which spatial imagination and imaginative space (re)produce each other and are complicated by the various sources of power at play. The international branch campus thus functions as an infrastructure of im/mobilities, which is both locally embedded and transnationally connected; it enables students' imaginative mobilities, transforming them into 'imaginative travellers' who have never physically been abroad but whose being and belonging are constantly negotiated by their everyday experiences in a mobile educational space.

Amaç: Replantasyon; periodontal desteğini kaybetmiş dişlerin kanal tedavisinin tamamlanmasının ardından, bilinçli olarak çekilerek, çekim soketine tekrar yerleştirilmesi olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu sayede hastanın estetik ve fonksiyonu tekrardan sağlanmış olur. Bu vaka raporunda maksiller santral kesici dişin replantasyonunun 10 aylık klinik ve radyolojik raporu sunulmuştur. Olgu: Sistemik olarak sağlıklı sigara içmeyen 41 yaşında kadın hasta santral kesici dişinde mobilite ve ilgili bölgede diş eti kanaması şikâyeti ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın klinik ve radyolojik muayenesi sonucu dişte şiddetli periodontal yıkım, derin periodontal patolojik cepler ve buna eşlik eden Miller sınıf III mobilite tespit edildi. Detertraj, kök yüzey düzleştirmesi ve oral hijyen eğitimini içeren Faz1 periodontal tedavi sırasında ilgili dişin kök kanal tedavisi tamamlandı. Reimplantasyon işlemine dişin atravmatik olarak çekimi ile başlandı, dişin extraoral olarak kök yüzeyindeki sementin tamamen uzaklaştırılmasına dikkat edilerek kök yüzey düzleştirmesi gerçekleştirildi. Daha sonra diş 5dk tetrasiklin HCI (100mg/ml) solüsyonunda bekletildi. Steril salin solüsyununda yıkandıktan sonra çekim soketine yerleştirildi, komşu dişlerle birlikte geçici olarak splintlendi. 2 haftalık geçici splint işleminden sonra daimî fiber destekli splint yapıldı. Bulgular: 10 aylık takip sonunda ilgili bölgede inflamasyonun çözüldüğü, ceplerin elimine olduğu ve radyolojik olarak belirgin kemik kazanımının olduğu görülmüştür. Bu süre boyunca herhangi bir komplikasyon gelişmediği ve hastanın tedaviden memnun olduğu kaydedilmiştir. Sonuç: Periodontal olarak umutsuz dişlerin replantasyonunun, kısa sürede tamamlanması, ekonomik olması, estetiğin sağlanabilmesi ve aynı zamanda kemik rezorpsiyonunu engelleyip, kemik kazanımı sağlayarak gelecek implant cerrahisini olumlu etkilemesi nedeniyle kayda değer bir tedavi yaklaşımı olduğu düşünülmektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Fiberle güçlendirilmiş splint, mobilite, periodontitis, replantasyon

This article delves into the everyday dynamics of colonial rule to outline a novel way of understanding colonized–colonizer interactions. It conceives colonial management as a social field in which both the colonized and colonizers negotiate and exchange resources, despite their decidedly unequal positions within a racial hierarchy. Drawing their example from the West Bank, the authors argue that a Palestinian economic elite has proactively participated in the co-production of the colonial management of spatial mobility, a central component of Israeli colonial rule. The study employs interviews and document analysis to investigate how the nexus between Palestine's commercial-logistical needs and Israel's security complex induced large-scale Palestinian producers to exert agency and reorder commercial mobility. The authors describe and explain the evolution of a 'Door-to-Door' logistical arrangement, in which large-scale Palestinian traders participate in extending Israeli's system of spatial control in exchange for facilitating logistical mobility. This horizontal social encounter that entails pay-offs is conditioned, but not fully determined, by vertical relations of domination and subordination. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Digital nomads who reject traditional business models and sedentary life move independently from time and space. They are individuals who travel frequently to get to know new places, cultures and people, and conduct all their business digitally. Within the scope of the current research, a detailed literature review was conducted on the concept of digital nomads, and it was determined that the studies were addressed in a limited framework. The aim of this research is to explore the trends towards digital nomads, which are increasing in number today, as well as revealing the current and future importance of the community. The importance of the research is to make a unique contribution to the field in terms of discovering trends about the community from different perspectives such as motivations for becoming a digital nomad, destination preference criteria, advantages and disadvantages of being a digital nomad, and digital nomads' interactions with social media. In this study, which was designed as a qualitative research, semi-structured in-depth interviews and content analysis were used as data analysis tools. The data obtained were analyzed through MAXQDA, one of the qualitative analysis software programs. According to the findings, it was concluded that the participants defined the concept of digital nomad as temporal, spatial and financial freedom, and that digital nomadism only can be longterm with a sustainable business model.

Using the case of the mobile preschool we focus on how children's prosthetic citizenship is constructed in relation to notions of mobility and place in the accounts of Swedish mobile preschool professionals. Mobile preschools are preschools in buses that visit different places in and around the city on an everyday basis. Analysis of interviews and workshop discussions with mobile preschool professionals shows how three different conceptualisations of children's 'proper' citizenship operate in parallel in these accounts – children as 'not-yet-citizens', children as 'not-here-citizens' and children as 'here-and-now-citizens'. These different conceptualisations are constructed in relation to the everyday mobility of the mobile preschool and notions of places as more or less beneficial for children's proper future and Swedish citizenship, and reveal how mobility is not only a consequence of citizenship relations but also constitutive of them. This paper contributes to knowledge on how mobility and notions of place constitute ideas on citizenship, and how forms and geographies of mobility produce subjects as more or less citizen.

Although there is an emphasis on fighting against poverty in sustainable development goals (SDGs), poverty is still a problem for both developing and developed countries because of its multi-dimensionality. Transport poverty is a statement of a loss or lack of transportation means to enable individuals and households to meet their basic needs and daily activities. Access to transportation, the affordability of transportation, and the increase in mobility are gaining importance, especially with the existence of vulnerable groups, in the fight against both poverty and social exclusion. The social, economic, and environmental contexts must be considered while assessing sustainable transportation. In this regard, transportation helps to ensure that climate treaties and targets for sustainable development can be successfully met. In order to combat climate change and protect the environment, transportation must enhance mobility while decreasing the release of greenhouse gases. Transport policies, which are inclusive and integrated with other social policy areas such as education and health, are instruments for increasing social participation, reducing vulnerabilities, and sustaining economic growth. In this study, the factors affecting transport poverty and its impact on social exclusion are evaluated through sustainability, mobility, and the fight against climate change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

'Public' toilets are crucial to our social and geographical landscape, and access to them has become prominent in recent public and academic debates. Drawing on a qualitative study based on 25 daily diaries and follow-up interviews with people living with the common health condition irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), this paper explores toilet access through the lens of mundane mobilities. Planning journeys, mapping toilets, a reliance on commercial toilets and intersections with travel were key themes emerging from the study. Through the lens of IBS, we see how navigations of seemingly everyday mobilities are problematised through the bodily precarity of unpredictable symptoms intertwined with the availability, comfort and knowledge of 'public' toilets. This paper works at demonstrating the interdependency between everyday mobilities and toilet access. IBS offers a particularly useful insight in which the common but often hidden nature of the condition demonstrates the multiplicities of 'public' toilet access and how the unpredictability of access meets with, and is embodied, by those with the condition. This paper contributes to interdisciplinary toilet scholarship by engaging in mundane and embodied geographies and centralises toilets as a site of connection for those studying everyday mobilities.

The purpose of this article is to analyse the innovative vision of the condition of the emigrant proposed by Thuận, a Vietnamese author exiled to France, in her latest novel Thư gửi Mina [Letters to Mina] (2019). After analysing the importance of the concept of mobility in the work, the article restricts the field of study to the emigration during the last years of the Cold War, being most of the characters from former communist countries. In order to develop the theme, the article finally aims to study the reflection advanced by the writer regarding the condition of emigrant by proposing three conceptual categories corresponding to three characters of the novel.

This article illustrates how rural margins and urban-rural relations in southwest Tanzania join up with transnational trade routes for Chinese goods. It examines the trade of low-cost imported goods from China (plastic sandals, cheap jewellery, various fashion accessories, cheap clothing, etc.) that are widely spread in Tanzania, up into the peripheral countryside. By examining the concept of trade routes, the article contributes to the literature on urban-rural relations in African Studies and 'inconspicuous globalisation' by proposing a contrary perspective, where rural areas viewed as areas of consumption of imported products. It then rescales the globalization analysis by situating urban-rural relations at the heart of local and global interconnections. The article demonstrates that geographically peripheral places and actors have a capacity to influence the direction of the global trade route as they combine complementarities between the urban-rural continuum and topological continuity of networks from local to global. The global trade geography is profoundly influenced by what goes on in its inconspicuous tentacles in upcountry regions, such as the Uporoto Mountains, where the global trade route relies on the dynamism of local agriculture, which is increasingly merging with other livelihoods. This is exemplified by the complementarities between trade and agriculture in terms of livelihood, circulation of capital, urban-rural mobility, and links to global scales, which highlight the de-agrarianization process and the development of a mass consumption society.

The comparatively cheap and mechanically accessible Chinese dakadaka diesel engines and their shotteur Z-drives have enabled wooden baleinières to significantly impact waterborne mobility, trade and transportation on the Congo River and its tributaries. While baleinières are artisanal watercraft made of local building materials, their engines are globally circulating technologies, which are able to unfold their economic, hydrodynamic and socio-technical affordances thanks to a number of local technical adaptations. On the basis of ethnographic fieldwork in Tshopo province (DR Congo) foregrounding the engines' use, the article discusses the adaptations the Chinese engines and their propulsion system undergo to enable a felicitous engagement of their intrinsic engineered forces with the muscular, natural, and social forces present in their local riverine habitat. While this entanglement of forces depends on the distributed character of collective onboard engine care, it also encourages the emergence of baleinière owners (armateurs) as a new group of local entrepreneurs. These insights help us understand why, despite frequent breakdowns, the engines and the boats they propel enable and democratize the access to new forms of connectivity and mobility for large parts of Congo's riverine and travelling urban populations. In a context of enduring economic precarity, the technical intervention of 'removing (the engine's) backward gear' (Li. kolongola marche arrière) is therefore also of metaphoric significance.

While many urban policies and practices claim to offer an "alternative" to the "mainstream" of urban entrepreneurialism, they remain under‐theorised and prone to alignment with entrepreneurial agendas. In this paper I examine fare‐free public transport (FFPT) as a salient example of an alternative urban policy. Looking at Aubagne (France) and Tallinn (Estonia), I explore what happens when an alternative policy "comes to town". I detect how FFPT enters local urban regimes, and study the (non‐)participation of public transport passengers and workers in the decision‐making process about whether and how to abolish public transport fares. My analysis reveals that albeit alternative policies such as FFPT seem to oppose entrepreneurialism, they may hinge on urban regimes that span across institutions, leave the local configurations of power unchallenged, and strenghten local elites. The adaptability of alternatives to diverse political and intellectual positions explains their resilience. Consequently, their radical character cannot be taken for granted and remains an object of political struggle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article discusses the conversion to Islam as an initiatory experience that is part of the transnational mobility of young French people living in Quebec. Based on ethnographic data collected among young people adopting beliefs and practices related to Islam, I show that physical mobility sometimes acts as a trigger to make concrete a situation and an identification previously experienced in a vague or unassumed way. This mobility is based on mythscapes (Bell), that is specific representations of the countries of origin, the countries visited and the countries of destination, all being fed by fantasies, exoticism, desires but also angsts, and desires for an elsewhere. The study of a few cases suggests that this movement participates in the emergence of a subculture that the young people we met describe by using "inter" (interreligious, intersectional) narratives. These vignettes offer a glimpse of the multiple ways in which youth appropriate the resources and tools offered by globalization by embracing some mobile religious identifications.

Biosecurity restrictions regulate the types of materials that international travellers can bring into certain countries. Australia is well known in international travel cultures for stringent customs regulations and checks on all incoming passengers. This blanket approach to biosecurity governance implies that all materials, even banal personal possessions or luggage, pose a potential threat to the nation's biosecurity. This article explores how individuals prepare for and experience declaring personal belongings while migrating to and entering Australia. Drawing from interviews with recently arrived migrants on temporary visas, analysis of the required customs declaration card and government information, I highlight the inconsistencies of how materials, and the people who carry them, come under close scrutiny at the border. The findings show that the stringent surveillance of biosecurity perpetuates perceived risks and threats, relying on stereotypes of certain migrant and traveller profiles in the way biosecurity is promoted, monitored and enforced. Biosecurity manifests social, spatial, and material concerns in how it is performed and regulated, thereby transforming passive materials in a person's luggage into active threats to national security, further complicating the rigid governance of international mobility and migration.

Dès la fin des années 90, certains secteurs psychiatriques ont développé une démarche pro-active envers un public particulier : personnes en grande précarité et exclusion ET présentant une souffrance psychique nécessitant des soins spécialisés en psychiatrie. Cesdispositifs préfiguraient ce que deviendront plus tard les Équipes Mobiles Psychiatrie Précarité (EMPP). Faire accéder ce public aux soins et aider à leur maintien dans les soins devenait le pivot de leur activité. Au fil des décennies ces actions se sont précisées et venues combler les difficultés du Secteur Psychiatrique quant à l'accès aux soins de ce public. Population: L'acronyme « SDF » ne suffit plus à caractériser le public vers lequel se tourne les EMPP. En effet, peine supplémentaire, ces personnes doivent être porteuses de trouble psychique. Depuis une petite décennie ce public évolue, auquel viennent maintenant s'adjoindre les personnes migrantes, dont la souffrance psychique est apparue dans leur pays d'origine et/ou lors du parcours d'exil, voire même depuis leur arrivée sur le territoire national. Missions: En premier, aller à la rencontre des « SDF », psychotiques ou pas, afin d'accompagner un parcours d'accès aux soins ou un retour aux soins psychiatriques. Parallèlement, auprès des acteurs de première ligne, il s'agit de faciliter les liens avec les structures sociales ou médico-sociales venant appuyer, compléter, soutenir le projet de soin. Toujours auprès de ces acteurs, la mission des EMPP est d'intervenir en appui et en soutien aux structures d'accueil et d'hébergement. Fonctionnement: Les EMPP sont des équipes pluridisciplinaires composées de psychiatres, infirmiers, assistants de service social, psychologues... Une fois la personne en souffrance psychique signalée à l'équipe par les acteurs de première ligne, une visite à domicile pour sans domicile s'organise au plus près du patient (en rue, centre d'hébergement, accueil de jour...). Cette démarche d'aller vers permet une première rencontre, puis d'autres, afin d'évaluer la situation médicale, psychiatrique et sociale de la personne concernée et de la faire accéder aux soins les plus adaptés à son état. Les actions des EMPP s'effectuent aussi auprès des acteurs de première ligne visent à sensibiliser, informer et former à la souffrance psychique, à la psychiatrie en précarité. Des analyses de pratique et autres échanges d'appui et de soutien viennent compléter ces actions aidantes. Travail en réseau: Le réseau avec lequel travaillent les EMPP est particulièrement étendu dans la mesure où il concerne tous les acteurs de la Cité, des Communes, des Communautés de Communes, du territoire couvert par l'EMPP concernée. De fait, cela implique les Conseils Locaux de Santé Mentale (CLSM), les réseaux solidarité, les membres des veilles sociales, les coordinations de maraudes, d'une façon générale tous les acteurs de première ligne, tous les accueillants des structures, et bien sûr tous les Secteurs de psychiatrie. Dans les petites communes les partenaires se rencontrent assez facilement, mais cela s'avère plus complexe lorsque les territoires sont très étendus ou dans les mégapôles où le nombre de partenaires varie au gré des mouvements des structures d'accueil et d'hébergement. Nombre, durée et lieux d'intervention: Les EMPP n'ont pas vocation à augmenter en permanence leur file active mais représentent parfois pour les plus démunis une première rencontre et doivent plutôt assurer une noria, avec un accès aux soins de relais dans les structures de droit commun et, une fois allégées de ces missions, aller à la rencontre d'autres personnes. Chaque équivalent temps plein (ETP) de professionnel accompagne entre 50 et 80 personnes par an. L'activité est donc ETP dépendante. La durée est celle suffisante à l'accompagnement vers ces structures, parfois quelques heures, parfois quelques années... En principe les lieux d'intervention sont représentés par tout lieu de vie ne correspondant pas à un habitat personnel (rues, parcs, jardins, bois et forêts, squats, lieux d'accueils et d'hébergements, etc.). Tout lieu où le secteur de psychiatrie ne se déploie pas. Conclusion: Le maillon faible du Secteur psychiatrique est le soin aux plus démunis. Les EMPP tentent de combler ce manque. Les disparités géo-populationnelles entraînent une grande variabilité des acteurs et des actions. La force des EMPP réside dans leur souplesse, adaptabilité et proactivité. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé : L’un des principes du développement repose sur la construction ou la reconstruction des routes en vue de faciliter la mobilité sociale. En posant ce postulat, la route, subséquemment, les différentes dénominations qui justifient la mobilité et/ou l’immobilité, (la rue, la voie, le boulevard ou l’avenue entre autres) se présentent comme un espace indispensable au couronnement d’un progrès certain. C’est la question de l’urbanisation qui est ainsi posée puisqu’elle impacte inévitablement les contingences sociopolitiques, culturelles, économiques, artistiques et littéraires de toute société. Dès lors, la rue, élément essentiel de l’urbanisation, constitue indéniablement un espace dont les fonctions semblent s’adapter à l’usage que l’on en fait. Le foisonnement des rues dans L’herbes des nuits de Patrick Modiano suscite une somme d’interrogations qui, elles-mêmes, suggèrent une lecture plurielle de cette abondance de voies de la liberté d’aller et de venir au-delà du tourniquet intellectuel imposé au lecteur. Si les rues évoquées dans l’œuvre ci-dessus mentionnée constituent des motifs inspirant l’écriture de l’auteur, il convient d’y voir également une forme d’expression scripturale d’un principe cher à la mondialisation, c’est-à-dire la rupture de toutes les barrières quelles qu’en soient les formes. L’objectif de cet article est de montrer que les rues, en plus d’être une exigence de développement, elles constituent une voie de ruptures des barrières entre les hommes.

Les équipes mobiles de psychiatrie du sujet âgé (EMPSA) sont des équipes pluridisciplinaires spécialisées dans les pathologies psychiatriques des personnes âgées. Elles ont un rôle d'évaluation, de coordination et d'orientation. Elles se rendent à domicile ou en institution, afin de répondre à la difficulté d'accès aux soins, liée au manque de mobilité, à l'isolement, à la fragilité somatique et au risque de situations de rupture. Le maintien à domicile étant un enjeu majeur de santé publique, il est nécessaire « d'aller vers » afin de mieux coordonner le parcours de soins pour ces populations vulnérables. Population Les EMPSA interviennent auprès de personnes âgées, à partir de 60 ou 65 ans selon les équipes, qui présentent des problématiques psychiatriques diverses, généralement non prises en charge par leur secteur ou en rupture de soins. Les pathologies psychiatriques les plus fréquentes sont les dépressions, les troubles anxieux, les troubles psychotiques et bipolaires et les addictions. Les troubles neurocognitifs sont souvent intriqués ou comorbides, impactant de facto la maladie psychique, la collaboration avec les équipes mobiles de gériatrie est alors nécessaire. Missions Les missions des EMPSA s'articulent autour de 3 principaux axes : évaluer, orienter et coordonner. Ainsi, elles permettent de faciliter l'accès et la continuité des soins psychiatriques, d'initier des prises en charges ambulatoires, de favoriser les alternatives aux hospitalisations, de proposer une évaluation diagnostique et thérapeutique et une orientation vers des soins adaptés. Elles participent à la dynamique du travail en réseau avec les différents partenaires sociaux et médico-sociaux. Elles ont aussi un rôle d'acculturation au soin psychique et de formation des équipes avec lesquelles elles collaborent dans le champ de la psychiatrie du sujet âgé. Certaines équipes peuvent apporter du soutien aux aidants, sous la forme de psychoéducation ou de groupes de paroles. Fonctionnement Les équipes sont pluridisciplinaires, formées d'infirmiers, de psychiatres, parfois de psychologues, d'ergothérapeutes et d'assistants sociaux, afin d'enrichir les expertises et les compétences. Elles ne font pas partie du dispositif d'urgence psychiatrique, et proposentdes évaluations dans un délai variable, de quelques jours à 2 semaines. À l'issue d'une évaluation clinique et thérapeutique, une orientation est proposée (relais de suivi par le médecin traitant, suivi initialisé sur le CMP du secteur psychiatrique, coordination avec la filière gériatrique, liens avec les services sociaux, hospitalisations, etc.). Travail en réseau Les EMPSA participent au travail en réseau, dans un maillage cohérent sans se substituer aux dispositifs de soins ambulatoires (médecin traitant, soins infirmiers à domicile, réseaux de santé et DAC, etc.) ni à ceux des intervenants sociaux (travailleurs sociaux, services d'aides à domicile etc.). Elles s'intègrent aux réseaux des autres équipes mobiles (gériatriques, précarité, douleur et soins palliatifs, oncologique etc.). Nombre, durée et lieux d'intervention Le territoire d'intervention des EMPSA correspond en général à un bassin de population de 500 000 habitants, sachant qu'en France actuellement, les personnes âgées de 65 ans et plus représentent 20% de la population. La durée du suivi est limitée, dans le temps ou dans le nombre d'intervention, et est variable en fonction des équipes et des moyens. Les visites se font à domicile, en établissements médico-sociaux ou en établissements d'hébergement pour personnes âgées (EHPAD et résidences autonomie). Conclusion Les EMPSA peuvent constituer un maillon essentiel dans les soins proposés à la population âgée et se développer de façon cohérente pour un parcours de soins et de santé optimisé.

El artículo tiene como objetivo abordar algunas lógicas en los movimientos y espacios de tránsito en América Latina entre 2015 y 2021. Este período se ha caracterizado no solo por el aumento acelerado de la movilidad humana en la región, sino también por la adopción y la diversificación de los enfoques de securitización − externalización de políticas y desterritorialización de fronteras − que surgen como respuesta a sus desplazamientos. A partir de una revisión documental y el análisis de la movilidad humana en países del Triángulo Norte, Venezuela y Haití, se determina que esta situación restrictiva ha generado, en el caso de la migración sur-norte, el fortalecimiento de las «fronteras verticales» y, en el caso de la migración intrarregional, la diversificación de formas de movilidad y el fortalecimiento de los espacios de tránsito; pero también el posterior desmantelamiento de estos últimos por cuenta del impacto de las restricciones para contener la expansión del Covid 19 en los ingresos y oportunidades de subsistencia de los migrantes.

Since the 1970s, the New Zealand National Museum Te Papa Tongarewa has been issuing demands for the return of mummified Māori heads (toi moko) despoiled during colonisation. 'Objects' of many statuses and definitions, toi moko generate different representations and symbolise many cultural visions or practices. As a place and actor of restitutions, the museum is the central space of the dispute. As one of the poles of the decolonial process, the Te Papa Tongarewa Museum bears the claims of its population as well as the bicultural policy of the New Zealand state. Similarly, the Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac Museum exemplifies and territorial- ises, through the restitution ceremony of 23 January 2012, these returns that confront different perceptions of heritage. This article examines the ways in which these museum institutions bring together all of these parameters and actors in order to carry out the returns of Māori human remains to Aotearoa, allowing us to question this museum revival in a decolonial context of heritage and culture.

This article examines representations of polar cruise tourism in the Northwest Passage as climate change extends the geographic range of open waters and increases the number of ice-free days in the Canadian Arctic. It connects current cruise promotion to earlier exploration histories and investigates the paradoxes that arise in the drive to bear witness to climate change while accelerating its impacts through carbon-intensive travel. It also examines some of the ways that Franklin expedition tourism in particular is being used to reinforce claims of Canadian sovereignty over Arctic resources. Overall, the promotion of this kind of maritime tourism highlights many of the key fault lines between visitor expectations and geophysical and cultural realities in a changing North, raising doubts about whether expanded development of such tourism can succeed in creating climate change ambassadors. The article concludes that the potential for developing cross-cultural environmental justice solidarities depends in significant measure on the tourism industry's greater inclusion of Inuit perspectives that understand the Arctic not merely as a place to travel through, but as a homeland of earth, sea, and the shifting ice between.

In this study, GaN p-i-n structure grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy was investigated by temperature-dependent current-voltage and electroluminescence (EL) measurements. It has been observed that the GaN p-i-n structure emits yellow light with a peak energy of 2.2 eV under 50 mA injection current corresponding to the space charge limited region at forward voltage. In addition, the electric field dependence of the mobility derived from the space-charged region was determined to be Poole-Frenkel and the thermal energy gap was calculated as 0.299 eV. This calculated energy range was supported by the results obtained from the EL measurement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Research on mental health geographies and housing has focused on pattern and distribution, rather than social and cultural constructions of home. Here we attempt to understand meanings and roles of home for individuals with mental illness in the UK within the context of a deep-seated housing crisis. The discussion is sharpened by the notion of the ambiguous home, ranging from a place for retreat, separation or even isolation from the world, with experiences of recovery, stability or wellness, to home as something more negative, in which distress or illness flourished, and in which people became entrapped or from which they sought relief. Three themes crosscut this range of experiences: home as material object; home as relational; and home as rhythm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper compares current evidence for Mesolithic adaptations along the north Spanish coast from Galicia in the west to the Basque Country in the east. Significant questions and issues pertinent to Mesolithic research are reviewed, followed by a brief discussion of advances in method and theory over the past 25 years. Cantabria, País Vasco, and Galicia are compared with each other and en bloc with evidence from the middle Ebro over the 12-6 ka BP interval considered to bracket the transition between foraging and domestication economies. Marked differences in the time-space grid, geology, and the resolution of the data hinder these comparisons. A radiocarbon database totaling 610 dates is compiled, cleaned, filtered and analyzed for each region individually using summed calibrated date probability distribution (SPD) curves as a proxy for population density fluctuations over time. Regional curves are then compared with each other and with a global model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
