In this article, I explore how the contested notion of children's agency is represented in international children's rights law and in four novels by francophone African authors. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child establish children as rights holding subjects within a framework of adult care, while the fictional texts position children as protagonists, deprived of adult protection amid conflict and social upheaval. In both, children are understood as acting and acted upon, forming and formed by their environment. Through the utopian vision of children's rights law and the damaged child narratives of the fictional texts, children's agency can be read as a critique of adult society. At the same time, children are recognized as active participants in history, their choices and actions, however determined, shaping their own future selves and society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a reading of La Celestina and, more precisely, of the character of Melibea in the light of a series of categories that nourish the most current systems of thought: contemporary feminist thought, contemporary philosophies (in particular philosophies of desire), and legal debates (some of them very recent) around the questions of discernment and consent. This apprehension of the Celestinesque text through the most contemporary systems of thought will lead us to analyse (and question) the categories of object and subject, the "becoming subject", as well as the notions of will, agency, freedom of choice and consent. Such a reading will lead us to question certain readings that see in Rojas's play a pre-feminist work, a hymn to freedom or the dramatization of a progressive feminine "liberation", in which Melibea passes from the category of object to that of subject.

Spanish youth's process of transition to adult life illustrates the complex effects of a prolonged economic crisis that emerged in 2008 and exacerbated an already precarious labour market. In this article, we approach this panorama of social change from the perspective of the young individuals who find themselves immersed in this passage from one crisis to another – from a global economic crisis to COVID-19 – and between two symbolic realities, one marked by individualism and the other by individualisation. Based on a discourse analysis of 20 in-depth interviews and three focus groups with young adults, conducted between 2018 and 2019 for a publicly funded RDI project, we analyse how the process of individualisation tied to a self-sufficient model of human agency may contribute to an increased reliance on individual solutions to social problems. Furthermore, we underline how these individualised pathways involve a dependency on multiple supports which are characterised by a series of tensions. Consequently, we seek to elucidate the manner in which vulnerable young workers navigate, both interpretively and practically, the trials of social life as well as the expectations associated with individualism/individualisation within a context of crisis and uncertainty.

En France, les soins en pédopsychiatrie peuvent comporter des défis éthiques importants. Suite aux dernières recommandations du Contôleur général des lieux de privation de liberté (CGLPL) et aux modifications de la loi encadrant les mesures d'isolement et de contention en psychiatrie adulte, il est nécessaire de réfléchir à leur opérationnalisation dans la pratique des soins afin de trouver l'équilibre entre les impératifs de protection et le respect des jeunes hospitalisés en pédopsychiatrie. Élaborer des recommandations concernant l'usage de l'isolement et de la contention en pédopsychiatrie à la lumière des modifications législatives récentes et des enjeux éthiques spécifiques à la discipline. Dans le cadre de la Commission nationale de la psychiatrie, un groupe de travail, réunissant de nombreux pédopsychiatres, a été mis en place, en 2021, pour réfléchir aux enjeux contemporains de notre discipline. L'un des axes étudié – en lien avec le groupe de psychiatrie légale – a porté spécifiquement sur l'isolement et le contention en pédopsychiatrie. Une analyse des enjeux éthiques, à partir des principes de Beauchamp and Childress, est définie et adaptée au contexte pédopsychiatrique. Le groupe de travail a permis d'identifier les enjeux juridiques et éthiques spécifiques à leur discipline. À partir de l'analyse éthique de deux situations d'accompagnement difficile en pédopsychiatrie : (1) la pratique de l'électroconvulsivothérapie auprès des adolescents ; et (2) la gestion de la violence chez les jeunes avec autisme et déficience intellectuelle, les principaux conflits de valeurs sont identifiés en se référant, notamment, aux principes de non-nuisance, de bienfaisance, d'autonomie et de justice. À partir des travaux de recherches en éthique de l'enfance, la dimension relationnelle de l'autonomie est discutée en se référant aux concepts de « vulnérabilité partagée » et de « participation aux soins ». Des préconisations spécifiques à la pédopsychiatrie sont proposées pour promouvoir la reconnaissance des enfants et des adolescents hospitalisés en pédopsychiatrie, en tant qu'agent moral. In France, child psychiatry care can involve significant ethical challenges. Following the last recommendations of the Controller General of places of deprivation of liberty (CGLPL) and the modifications of the law framing the control measures (seclusion room and restraints) in adult psychiatry, it is necessary to reflect on their operationalization in providing care in order to find the balance between the imperatives of protection and the respect of the young people hospitalized in child psychiatry. To develop recommendations concerning the use of seclusion and restraint in child psychiatry in the light of recent legislative changes and associated ethical issues. Within the framework of the national commission of psychiatry, a working group bringing together many child psychiatrists was set up in 2021 to reflect on contemporary issues in our discipline. One of the axes studied – in connection with the forensic psychiatry group – was specifically concerned with isolation and restraint in child psychiatry. An analysis of the ethical issues based on the four principles of Beauchamp and Childress is defined and adapted for the child psychiatric context. The working group identified the legal and ethical issues specific to their discipline. Based on the ethical analysis of two difficult support situations in child psychiatry: (1) the practice of electroconvulsive therapy with adolescents; and (2) the management of violence in young people with autism and intellectual disabilities, the main conflicts of values were identified referring to the principles of non-maleficience, beneficence, autonomy and justice. Based on research in childhood ethics, the relational dimension of autonomy is discussed with reference to the concepts of "shared vulnerability" and "shared care planning". Specific recommendations for child psychiatry are proposed in order to promote the recognition as moral agents of children and adolescents hospitalized in child psychiatry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'objectif du présent article est d'aboutir à une conceptualisation du terme d'agent qui apparaît à plusieurs reprises dans l'enseignement de Lacan. L'enjeu est de produire une théorisation cohérente dudit terme afin de pouvoir le situer dans la praxis psychanalytique et d'étudier l'influence du culturalisme nord-américain sur cette praxis. Notre examen consiste à retracer l'évolution de cette notion d'agent à travers l'enseignement de Lacan. Ce trajet commence officiellement en 1956 mais s'estompe à partir de 1959 afin de faire son retour en 1969 de manière radicalement différente. Il s'agit alors de préciser ce que Lacan entend par « agent » à chacune de ces périodes, et de montrer comment, à chaque fois, il s'appuie sur cette notion non pas pour la conceptualiser en tant que telle, mais pour la faire dialoguer avec les autres concepts psychanalytiques. En retraçant l'évolution du terme, nous arrivons à une conceptualisation de l'agent comme étant équivalent au statut du signifiant comme tel. Il est important donc de distinguer le statut de l'agent de celui du sujet et du moi qui, eux, ne font pas preuve d'une véritable activité. Le signifiant, en revanche, est celui qui permet à l'action d'avoir lieu. Cette équivalence est ainsi implicite mais constante tout au long de l'enseignement lacanien, d'abord en tant que fonction dans l'équation œdipienne et ensuite en tant que place dans la théorie des discours. Nous faisons l'hypothèse que les notions d'agent et d'agentivité sont malmenées dans les écrits psychanalytiques actuels. Cela est dû à une influence culturaliste d'un côté, mais surtout à une interdisciplinarité hâtive, c'est-à-dire qui cherche à nouer la psychanalyse avec d'autres disciplines sans prendre le temps de redéfinir les concepts. L'agentivité est l'exemple parfait : elle est définie du côté des sciences cognitives et sociales puis reprise comme telle par certains psychanalystes sans qu'ils la redéfinissent, ce qui mène à une confusion théorique entre le sujet et l'agent. Une véritable conceptualisation de l'agent à l'intérieur du champ psychanalytique permet d'éviter les confusions théoriques dues à une interdisciplinarité qui ne prend pas le temps de redéfinir les concepts. Il est alors important de faire dialoguer la psychanalyse avec les autres disciplines sans pour autant faire perdre à celle-ci sa particularité. The aim of this paper is to conceptualize the term "agent" which appears multiple times throughout Lacan's teaching. The challenge is to produce a coherent theorization of the term in order to properly situate it in the psychoanalytic praxis and to study the influence of North American culturalism on this praxis. We will examine the evolution of the notion of agent throughout Lacan's teaching. This trajectory begins officially in 1956, then disappears in 1959, only to re-emerge in 1969 in a radically different fashion. It is then a question of specifying what Lacan means by "agent" at each of these periods, and to show how each time he relies on this notion not to conceptualize it as such, but rather to build a dialogue with other psychoanalytic concepts. By following the evolution of the term, we arrive at a conceptualization of the agent as being equivalent to the status of the signifier as such. It is therefore important to distinguish the status of the agent from that of the subject and of the ego, which both seem to not manifest any real activity. The signifier, on the other hand, is that which allows the action to take place. This equivalence is thus implicit yet constant throughout the Lacanian teaching, first as a function in the Oedipal equation and then as an occupation in the theory of discourse. Our hypothesis is that the notions of agent and agency are misused in today's psychoanalytic writings. This is due to an American culturalist influence on one hand, but mostly to a hasty interdisciplinarity, which attempts to link psychoanalysis with other disciplines without taking the necessary time to redefine the concepts at hand. Agency is the perfect example: it is defined by cognitive and social sciences and then reused as such by some analysts without redefining it, which leads to a theoretic confusion between the subject and the agent. A thorough conceptualization of the agent within the field of psychoanalysis allows us to avoid theoretic confusions due to an interdisciplinarity that doesn't take the time to redefine concepts. It is therefore important to establish a dialogue between psychoanalysis and other disciplines without it losing its particularities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Geographers have examined how sacred spaces are made spiritually meaningful through embodied practice. This paper brings together scholarship on post-secular feminism and geographies of religion to develop a theory of non-subversive power in the sacred space literature. This paper demonstrates how Kurdish women create sacred space through embodied Islamic mystical practices in Kurdish Turkey and how these practices carve out a space for creative existence within and alongside state and masculinist systems of power, not against. Using a post-secular feminist framing and building on conversations of power in the sacred space literature, we show how the formation of sacred space forms the feminine subject and constitutes an act of feminine agency. Specifically, we focus on two material and sacred sites: private communal prayer houses and public tomb sites used for communal petitions. In these spaces, women organize and lead collective and embodied meditations and petitions that centre their desires, concerns, and wishes in a common register to create, following Saba Mahmood, a 'politics in unusual places'.

The different registers of Dionne Brand's A Map to the Door of No Return, part essay, part memoir, part theory, part criticism, and part literary retrospective, operate as a kind of way finding, while also questioning the epistemological bases from which we understand the systems and libidinal economies around us, before we find our way within them. A Map asks us how we find each other, how the wounds and hauntings that stand between us overdetermine our movement, desire, and flesh, and how we still then find each other. But once we do find each other, how do we find touch? What kind of "way finding" leads us past brutality and into the kind of touch we desire? In this reflection, I try to track touch within Brand's Map by lingering in the passages where it appears and disappears. I track touch to reflect on my own map, to illuminate an essential aspect of the rupture with which this work is concerned, and to think generatively about how we attend to this intersection of the personal and the political.

Résumé: L'auteur s'interroge sur la capacité des ONG de renforcer le pouvoir collectif du travail au sein des réseaux de production mondialisés en utilisant leur pouvoir de pression sur les multinationales pour lancer des programmes d'élections de comités de travailleurs dans les usines. Sur la base d'une enquête empirique menée entre 2012 et 2019 dans le sud de la Chine, il montre que ces programmes ont permis de sensibiliser les travailleurs à l'action collective et de renforcer leur agentivité, mais que l'inégalité structurelle du système de production, l'absence de protection institutionnelle en faveur des représentants élus et le durcissement du régime ont empêché qu'ils perdurent.

Scholars of world politics can readily list the global governors of our time, but why and how did these particular actors gain agency in the first place? While there is impressive scholarship on single global governors and their respective impact, there is little comparative work and systematic theorization on what agency in world politics is and how actors gain it. This forum brings together contributions that apply relational frameworks to the question, focusing on the dynamics of self-agentification, delegation, and recognition. Individual contributions detail different empirical cases, from individuals to the G20, and introduce concepts for meso-level theorizing. Taken together, the contributions call for a more dynamic research agenda that not only allows scholars to reconstruct how agency emerges but also pushes us toward an agency-focused reframing of global governance, which is needed to ensure the continued relevance of the paradigm.

L’agentivité des professionnels en services sociaux et de santé (SSS), ou leur rôle d’agent de changement (AC), demeure sous-investie, notamment en raison d’un faible sentiment de compétence. Il importe donc d’évaluer les effets de formations à ce rôle sur le sentiment de compétence et sur les compétences. Cette étude visait à développer et à valider un questionnaire auto-administré évaluant ces effets. L’équipe de recherche a utilisé la méthode Delphi en trois rondes avec des experts connaissant le rôle d’AC ou la pédagogie auprès des professionnels en SSS. Le groupe d’experts regroupait quatre femmes et deux hommes, majoritairement des professeurs universitaires. Après consultation, les experts ont obtenu un consensus sur toutes les questions, amenant des modifications comme l’ajout de questions, leur ordonnancement, leur bonification, leur syntaxe, leur formulation et leurs choix de réponse. Pour conclure, la méthode Delphi a soutenu la conception d’un outil pour appuyer les professionnels en SSS dans leur développement professionnel.

This article explores not only the narratives of mixed individuals regarding what has been transmitted to them by their parents in terms of religious background, but also their own religious practice and affiliation. More specifically, the article focuses on mixed individuals who were raised in Muslim–Christian practicing families and who have grown up in Morocco. I will argue that despite the constraints of the religious context and the fact that they were raised in an interreligious practicing family, they are nevertheless active agents in the formation of their religious identity. The context in which they lived impacts their daily life, but not their capacity to make their choices in terms of religious identity. They do not always feel free to display their choices socially, face social pressure to conform to the majority group religious norms and/or family expectations, but develop adaptive practices to socially navigate the different social and family contexts.

Background: This article is a response to #CommunicationSoWhite -- Canadian style. It probes what articles about Black Canadians have been published in the Canadian Journal of Communication's (CJC's) history, and what has been the focus of these articles in terms of race, racism, and colonialism. Analysis: Using critical discourse analysis, this article examines language and voice in seven articles that focus on media representation of Blackness and/or Black visibility/invisibility. Conclusion and Implications: Over a 20-year period, the CJC's corpus on Black Canadians changed. The articles moved from simplified or stereotypical representations of Black culture to giving agency and voice to a heterogeneity of Black experiences. This article asks readers to consider how and when Black Canada will move from the margins of Canadian communication studies to the centre. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'expérience traumatique s'avère caractérisée par l'« indicibilité » : point de mot pour réellement exprimer, pour traduire, pour se représenter l'horreur traversée. Et pourtant, paradoxalement, l'accès principal à notre connaissance de la dissociation traumatique provient de ce que les patients arrivent à nous en dire ne serait-ce que partiellement, chaotiquement... Les empreintes lexicales, syntaxiques et pragmatiques du trauma dans le discours, que nous avons baptisées syndrome psycholinguistique traumatique (SPLIT), s'expriment selon une dissociation automatico-volontaire prenant forme graduelle : plus le trauma apparaît présent et plus les stigmates psycholinguistiques se manifestent ; plus le sujet s'éloigne psychiquement du trauma et de ses conséquences, plus le discours regagne l'état nominal. Comment le sujet peut-il redevenir maître de sa propre vie, de sa propre parole, sans que le trauma ne la contraigne ? Comment le sujet arrive-t-il parfois, seul ou avec l'aide d'autrui, à s'extraire de ses reviviscences par la narrativisation de la scène traumatique ? Ces espaces de retour au « je » n'ont jamais été étudiés en langue française dans le discours de patients souffrant de trouble de stress post-traumatique. Outre la forme linguistique « je », quelles sont les autres formes utilisées (personnelles, exclusives, inclusives, génériques) par les locuteurs de récits traumatiques dans leurs discours afin de faire référence à eux-mêmes ? À partir des témoignages de survivants du Bataclan recueillis immédiatement après l'attentat puis quelques années plus tard, ainsi qu'à partir des récits produits par des patients militaires souffrant de trouble de stress post-traumatique chronique, nous analysons, grâce à l'étude linguistique précise des marqueurs pronominaux, comment les locuteurs font référence à eux-mêmes. Une analyse détaillée des formes pronominales et des différentes valeurs qu'elles signifient, nous a conduit à quatre principales découvertes : (i) surreprésentation de la première personne dans les récits traumatiques, tant par l'emploi du pronom « je » que par les autres pronoms incluant le locuteur ; (ii) prédominance de l'emploi des valeurs pronominales génériques dans les récits traumatiques ; (iii) utilisation préférentielle de la valeur exclusive du pronom « on » dans le corpus « Guerre d'Afghanistan » ; et enfin (iv), le déroulé temporel de ces trois premiers résultats suit la chronologie de la clinique évolutive du trouble de stress post-traumatique. Les récits traumatiques contiennent significativement davantage d'occurrences du pronom « je », mais aussi d'autres formes de références à soi-même comparativement aux sujets témoins. L'évocation à la première personne témoigne principalement de la singularité du trauma : ce qui est traumatique pour quelqu'un, à un moment particulier de son histoire, ne le sera pas forcément pour quelqu'un d'autre qui traverserait la « même » épreuve aux sens des coordonnées objectives (lieu, date des faits, intensité des sons, étendue de lésions physiques, etc.). Dire « je » c'est aussi lutter contre les symptômes dissociatifs, au premier rang desquels la dépersonnalisation confinant à la réification et à la désubjectivation. Cependant, le trauma s'accroche aux premières tentatives de s'en extraire : la prééminence du pronom « je » apparaît parallèlement telle une marque de la répétition dans le discours, disjonction entre les dimensions lexicales et pragmatiques de l'énonciation. Pour cause de dissociation massive, le « je » discursif renvoie même parfois à un asubjectif dans la scène traumatique tel un « Out of Langage Experience » : le sujet dit quelquefois « je » mais sans parler de lui. En outre, l'emploi des pronoms génériques est retrouvé avec une plus grande fréquence dans les récits d'événements traumatiques, notamment dans le corpus du « Bataclan différé », alors que les témoins les utilisent significativement moins. En employant « tu » ou « vous » générique, c'est comme si le locuteur disait : si vous aviez été à ma place, voilà ce que vous auriez éprouvé, vu, entendu, pensé, car n'importe quel humain, dans ces circonstances, éprouverait ce que j'ai éprouvé. En un sens, je suis donc un être humain « normal » mais en même temps, j'évite ma propre subjectivité, ce qui reste une forme de dépersonnalisation. Par l'utilisation d'un « vous » générique, voire même davantage par un « tu » familier, un changement de perspective cognitive adoptée pour décrire le vécu, le sujet blessé psychique décrit l'expérience de l'extérieur. Ainsi, le processus de dissociation traumatique se protège toujours, voire s'étend, en incluant l'interlocuteur dans la scène traumatique, en suggérant une quête empathique, comme pour l'en rendre captif, témoin invité ou participant obligé de la scène verbale. Enfin, alors que les témoins emploient « je » et « on » de manière équivalente, chez les sujets blessés psychiques, plus l'on s'éloigne du trauma temporellement alors que ses conséquences cliniques persistent, plus l'utilisation du pronom « je » augmente et plus l'emploi du pronom « on » diminue tout en se polarisant sur un caractère exclusif ou générique. De telles évolutions croisées, témoignant en même temps d'une tentative de recours à l'affirmation de soi et de la dissolution dans un collectif extérieur, restent une marque de la dissociation traumatique dans le discours. Ces résultats concordent avec l'évolution chronologique de la clinique post-traumatique de la phase immédiate marquée de trouble de stress aigu, à la phase différée souvent lieu d'une période intermédiaire latente, puis aux symptômes chroniques évoluant vers des souffrances multiples. L'approche linguistique peut nous offrir à la fois de comprendre les marques générales de la blessure psychique dans le discours et le traumatisme au sens de la singularité du vécu. Alors que le syndrome psycholinguistique traumatique résulte de la blessure du langage constitutive du trauma, inversement, c'est une parole singulière qui permet de s'extraire des reviviscences. Sans doute que des processus salvateurs surviennent notamment grâce à la relation intersubjective entre le patient et autrui, par la co-construction d'un discours. L'analyse de la restauration de ce langage, et en particulier des marques pronominales, pourrait unifier une conception spécifique de l'apaisement des conséquences traumatiques tout en définissant des marqueurs linguistiques objectifs offrant d'évaluer l'efficacité des traitements recommandés. The traumatic experience is characterized by "unspeakability:" there are no words to truly express, to translate, to represent the horror. And yet, paradoxically, the main access to our knowledge of traumatic dissociation comes from what patients manage to tell us, if only partially, chaotically... The lexical, syntactic, and pragmatic imprints of the trauma on discourse, which we have baptized psycholinguistic traumatic syndrome (SPLIT), are expressed according to an automatico-voluntary dissociation taking gradual form: the more the trauma appears present, the more the psycholinguistic stigmata manifest themselves; the more the subject psychically moves away from the trauma and its consequences, the more the discourse returns to the nominal state. How can the subject become master of his own life, of his own speech, without being constrained by trauma? How do some subjects manage, alone or with the help of others, to extract themselves from their flashbacks by narrativizing the traumatic scene? These spaces of return to the "I" have never been studied in French in the discourse of patients suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder. In addition to the linguistic form "I," what other forms (personal, exclusive, inclusive, generic) do speakers of traumatic narratives use in their discourse in order to refer to themselves? Based on the testimonies of survivors of the Bataclan attack collected immediately after the event and a few years later, as well as on the narratives produced by military patients suffering from chronic posttraumatic stress disorder, we analyze, through the precise linguistic study of pronominal markers, how the speakers refer to themselves. A detailed analysis of the pronominal forms and the different values they signify led us to four main findings: (i) over-representation of the first person in traumatic narratives, both by the use of the pronoun "I" and by others pronouns including the speaker; (ii) predominance of the use of generic pronominal values in traumatic narratives; (iii) preferential use of the exclusive value of the pronoun " on " in the "War in Afghanistan" corpus; and finally (iv), the temporal unfolding of these first three results mirrors the habitual chronology that characterizes the clinical evolution of posttraumatic stress disorder. The narratives of trauma survivors contain significantly more occurrences of the pronoun "I," but also other forms of self-reference, compared to control subjects. The use of the first-person pronoun mainly reflects the singularity of the trauma: what is traumatic for one person at a particular moment in his or her history will not necessarily be traumatic for someone else who, objectively, went through the same ordeal (in terms of place, date of the event, intensity of the sounds, extent of physical injuries, etc.). To say "I" is also to fight against dissociative symptoms, first and foremost depersonalization bordering on reification and desubjectification. However, the trauma clings to subjects' first attempts to extract themselves from it: the preeminence of the pronoun "I" appears in parallel as a mark of repetition in the discourse, a disjunction between the lexical and pragmatic dimensions of enunciation. Because of massive dissociation, the discursive "I" sometimes even refers to a form of asubjectivity in the traumatic scene, an "Out-of-Language Experience:" the subject sometimes says "I" but without talking about her/himself. Moreover, the use of generic pronouns is found with greater frequency in accounts of traumatic events, particularly in the "later Bataclan" corpus, whereas controls use them significantly less. By using the generic " vous " (the formal or plural form of second-person address) or the informal " tu " ("you"), it is as if the speaker were saying: if you had been in my place in that circumstance, this is what you would have felt, seen, heard, thought, because any human, in those circumstances, would feel what I felt. In a sense, I am a "normal" human being, but at the same time, I avoid my own subjectivity, which is a form of depersonalization. Through the use of a generic "you," or even more so through a familiar "you," a change in cognitive perspective is adopted to describe the experience; the psychically injured subject looks at the experience described from the outside. Thus, the process of traumatic dissociation remains untouched, or even extends itself, by including the interlocutor in the traumatic scene, suggesting an empathic quest, as if to make him or her a captive, an invited witness, or a forced participant in the verbal scene. Finally, while the control subjects use "I" and " on " (a commonly used French pronoun that expresses, alternately or simultaneously, "one" and "we") in an equivalent way, with the psychologically injured subjects, the further one moves away temporally from the trauma while its clinical consequences persist, the more the use of the pronoun "I" increases and the more the use of the pronoun " on " decreases, while the latter takes on an exclusive or generic character. These intersecting evolutions, which suggest an attempt to resort to self-affirmation and to a dissolution into an external collective, signal the presence of traumatic dissociation in the discourse. These results are consistent with the chronological clinical evolution of posttraumatic stress disorder from the immediate phase marked by acute stress disorder, to the deferred phase, which is often followed by an intermediate latent period, and then to chronic symptoms evolving into a multiplicity of suffering. The linguistic approach can offer us both an understanding of the general marks of the psychic wound in the discourse and of the trauma, in the sense of the singularity of the experience. While traumatic psycholinguistic syndrome results from linguistic wound constitutive of the trauma, conversely, it is a singular word, which makes it possible to extract oneself from flashbacks. Undoubtedly, life-saving processes occur thanks to the intersubjective relationship between the patient and others, through the co-construction of a discourse. The analysis of the restoration of this language, particularly its pronominal forms, could unify a specific conception of the alleviation of traumatic consequences while defining objective linguistic markers that could help clinicians evaluate the effectiveness of recommended treatments.

When thinking about deathscapes and how they are assembled, current literature often points to the presence of material objects as ways in which individuals evoke the absence of the dead. These objects can be both performative and communicative, becoming a channel of communication. But the literature has so far mostly neglected the ability of spirits to 'talk back' to the living through objects and bodies, and in doing so influence and have effect on the latter's actions. In this paper, I will investigate the ways in which spirits are seen to have agency in deathscapes. I propose the concept of material proxies of consociation, denoting objects/bodies which act as ways for spirits to not just communicate, but interact with the living. Using two visual ethnographic case studies, one of the divining blocks and the other of a ritual exhumation, I will demonstrate that spirits can indeed be seen to be active and effective agents in the assembling of deathscapes. In doing so, this paper offers new ways of understanding three things – the role and importance of spirits in deathscapes, how the absent is made present, and how the spaces in which living and dead interact are constructed and shaped.

This article foregrounds the Indigenous ethical principles of respect, reciprocity, relationality, and responsibility that bind human and other/more-than-human agents, a non-anthropocentric conception of agency that may be said to offer a truly radical, if not "new," eco-critical approach to the crucial questions raised by new materialist and posthumanist scholars. Virginie Magnat argues that what distinguishes this understanding of agency from Karen Barad's influential theory of agential realism is the non-separability of matter and spirit posited by Indigenous scholars Vine Deloria Jr., Gregory Cajete, Manulani Aluli-Meyer, and Shawn Wilson, among others. Magnat contends that holding space for Indigenous philosophy, which values orally transmitted embodied ways of knowing, contributes to decentring/unsettling/decolonizing Eurocentric paradigms that still inform dominant knowledge systems in the academy, and she suggests that the scholarship of Dylan Robinson and Dolleen Tisawii'ashii Manning, who critically engage with new materialism/posthumanism, opens up possibilities for much-needed cross-cultural dialogue.

Drawing on qualitative research with Catholic women who are active in the Church in Belgium, this article sets out to analyse how these women negotiate and manage premarital sexuality. I map their practices, experiences, and strategies, and explore how they make sense of religious and secular norms regarding premarital sexuality. By using two notions as theoretical frameworks, namely religious agency and growth ethics, I argue that combining both can lead to a fertile approach to yielding new insights into the field of religion and sexuality. In so doing, I demonstrate that although not all my interlocutors refrain from sexual relations before marriage, they develop personal sexual ethics, which are distinctly informed by Catholic understandings.

Avec plus de 622 000 francophones (Gouvernement de l’Ontario, 2019), l'Ontario compte la plus importante minorité francophone hors Québec et sa principale minorité linguistique. Cependant, le manque de visibilité publique de la francophonie ontarienne nous a amenés à remettre en question cette quasi-absence. Selon James Scott (2009), les occasions d'entendre publiquement la voix des minorités sont l'exception plutôt que la règle. Au-delà des droits linguistiques, le concept de citoyenneté linguistique (Linguistic Citizenship; Lim et al., 2018) semble prometteur car il nous conduit à nous interroger sur le degré d'agentivité sociale des acteurs minoritaires par rapport à leur voix. Grâce à l'analyse du court-métrage de Claudette Jaïko – « Deux voix, comme en écho » (1987) – cet article démontrera que les micro-actes sociolinguistiques réalisés par des acteurs sociaux minoritaires permettent d'affirmer des degrés divers de citoyenneté linguistique conduisant à l'appropriation d’une voix pour les francophones en Ontario.

This article offers reflexive insights on a methodological approach experimented with collectives engaged in operations of ecological stewardship of their urban living environments. In addition to revealing a new theoretical agency of communities of human and non-human actors, the investment of certain processes of investigation influences the construction of the research object itself. This method reflects the principles of abduction for which research is always constructed in a situation of interaction between the investigator, the respondents and the object of the investigation. As the boundary between investigator and respondents becomes blurred, the adoption of a reflexive look at these corporal commitments reveals openings and troubles. Ultimately, the experimentation of a multi-species ethnographic relationship leads us to refine the starting hypothesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cet article fait appel à la sociologie interactionniste pour explorer les biographies et les carrières morales de deux anciennes zhiqing devenues, aux alentours de 2007, deux figures maternelles célèbres dans une blogosphère tongzhi dynamique. Leur rencontre avec de jeunes tongzhi a été à l'origine d'un mouvement de mobilisation de parents d'enfants à la sexualité considérée comme non conforme en Chine. En ancrant le militantisme tongzhi dans l'histoire de la Chine contemporaine et en reconstruisant deux processus parallèles du devenir militant, cet article cherche à mieux comprendre comment l'agentivité politique a vu le jour dans un contexte autoritaire tout en appelant à étudier les pratiques militantes comme des activités historicisées en quête de sens.

Le présent article propose une lecture de M.I.L.F. (2018) de Marjolaine Beauchamp en analysant le rapport complexe au corps et à la sexualité des personnages au prisme de la philosophie du corps. En filiation avec la dramaturgie des années 1970-1980, qui a propulsé la parole féministe dans le paysage théâtral québécois, cette pièce contemporaine met en scène des personnages qui, par la parole, tentent d’accepter leur corps imparfait. Nous verrons de quelle manière leurs gestes s’agencent avec leurs mots et comment elles exercent leur agentivité sexuelle.

Based on qualitative research on training experience of automation technology apprentices in Switzerland, this paper analyses the relationship between workplace guidance and the development of agency. The case study of four industrial companies shows that guidance has an influence on the form of agency that young people in VET develop on the workplace. In a context of guidance characterized by a strong relationship with the training person, expansive participation in company's activities and adapted structuring interventions, apprentices engage directly in the optimization of learning processes and take on responsibilities within the community of practices. Apprentices who experience poorly adapted or insufficient guidance feel that they are not learning their trade well and fear failure in exams. Nevertheless, these young people also develop intentionality and reflection towards the optimization of learning, whereas their action is focused on improving learning conditions.

Cet article vise à exposer les réflexions engendrées par la présentation de Marc Jeannotte intitulée “Quels modes de vie citoyenne voulons-nous dans nos métropoles?”. Soulignant le lien entre les transitions urbaines et le projet humain, l’intervenant a avancé le rôle essentiel de la participation citoyenne et du citoyen comme un acteur de ces transitions. Notre analyse de ce questionnement est basée sur trois notions de la théorie d’action : les champs structurels d’action, les acteurs et les représentations des acteurs. En appliquant ce cadre conceptuel à la discussion, nous pouvons conclure que pour permettre l’intelligence collective dans les démarches participatives, il faut prendre en compte ces trois éléments. Ainsi, l’intervenant et les discutants mettent l’importance sur l’expertise des citoyens et le capital social, l’accessibilité à l’information et la fracture numérique, la diversité des opinions et l’apprentissage. Ensuite, nous identifions les lignes de questionnement à poursuivre afin d’améliorer notre compréhension des formes de la participation citoyennes du point de vue des représentations et des stratégies d’action des citoyens.

L’apprentissage connecté est une pratique éducative croissante qui a été repérée par les délégué·e·s d’EDUsummIT2019 et qui en ont fait un thème de travail lors de leur examen des relations curriculum/pratiques pédagogiques/évaluation des apprentissages. Le présent article porte sur la manière avec laquelle le concept connected learning a été interprété et mis en œuvre dans le contexte culturel français et francophone, et il suggère que les « passages » de frontières, qui en reflètent le dynamisme, améliorent l’éducation formelle, notamment dans des cas d’élèves ou de classes défavorisées (classes rurales isolées). Cette interprétation repose sur des repères historiques ainsi que sur les notions d’agentivité, d’interaction et de connexion. L’étendue et la mise en œuvre de ce concept sont illustrées par le cas de l’école (éloignée) en réseau, une innovation qui s’adapte selon les contextes, dont celui de la COVID-19, par des allers-retours entre le local et le délocalisé. Deux interrogations en ressortent, l’une concernant la reconnaissance des apprentissages réalisés en dehors du contexte de l’éducation formelle et l’autre, la gestion de la désinformation.
