1	Étude ethno-historique d'un isolat de pauvreté de la région de Charlevoix et ses implications sur la pratique pastorale de l'Église locale Gauthier, Serge 19 November 2021 (has links) Ce mémoire présente les résultats d'une enquête puisant à même des témoignages oraux de personnes provenant d'un milieu pauvre de la région de Charlevoix. Cette recherche de type ethnologique et historique permet de dégager des pistes pastorales et théologiques susceptibles de favoriser une démarche d'approche dans ce milieu. L'essentiel du travail présente donc un sous- groupe social identifiable à une culture de pauvreté et met en lumière des moyens concrets en vue de lui permettre de sortir de sa marginalité.

2	Rhetorical intelligence : the role of rhetoric in the US intelligence community Kreuter, Nathan Allen 01 October 2010 (has links) In the wake of the misbegotten US invasion of Iraq in 2003, we have to acknowledge that there are critical flaws in how our intelligence community (the CIA and its “sister-agencies”) produces knowledge. Instead of arguing that the intelligence community acted in bad faith, or that the mistaken pre-war intelligence was a “perfect storm” of bad luck, as others have, this dissertation argues that the intelligence community’s rhetorical culture led it into fatally flawed epistemological practices, demonstrated most dramatically in the mistaken pre-invasion allegations of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction programs. Chapter one explains the problematic assumptions behind the question of whether or not the intelligence community overtly politicized its pre-war intelligence estimates. In chapter two, the intelligence community’s theories of language are explored. Chapter three addresses how the intelligence community teaches and practices writing. The intelligence community’s inflexible commitment to writing in a “clear” prose style proves problematic when that clarity belies the uncertainty of its estimates. The fourth and final chapter addresses issues of disciplinarity in the intelligence community, explores the possibility of a rhetorical theory of intelligence, and offers conclusions. / text Rhetoric Intelligence Intelligence community Clarity Politics Politicization, WMD WMD report WMD commission report Iraq war Sherman Kent CIA Lakoff Mailloux Burke McCloskey Rhetorical intelligence Hermeneutics Objectivity Hermeneutic realism
