Cette thèse s’intéresse aux bibliothèques publiques des quartiers populaires de la Seine-Saint-Denis. A partir d’une enquête ethnographique réalisée dans une bibliothèque publique d’un quartier populaire, la thèse analyse la politique de lecture publique depuis son élaboration, jusqu’à sa traduction par des acteurs – les bibliothécaires – et sa réception dans un territoire. Dans le territoire étudié, la lecture publique se trouve mise à l’épreuve de plusieurs façons. La distance de la majorité de la population ainsi que des formes de conflictualité et de tensions diverses – conflits entre bibliothécaires et publics, hostilités à l’encontre des actions culturelles développées par les bibliothèques, éventuels actes de dégradation volontaire dirigés contre les équipements – complexifient l’inscription locale de ces institutions culturelles. A ces problématiques locales s’ajoutent des évolutions spécifiques au champ culturel. Le contexte contemporain d’évolution des pratiques et des légitimités culturelles affecte directement les bibliothécaires et pose la question de leur légitimité sociale. La thèse présente comment les difficultés d’inscription territoriale des bibliothèques publiques s'enracinent dans l'histoire et les évolutions des politiques de lecture publique d'un côté et des quartiers et des classes populaires de l'autre. / The work of this thesis is focused on public libraries in the working classes district of the Seine-Saint-Denis. Based on an ethnographic survey in a public library in a working class district, the thesis analyzes the public reading policy since its development until his transposition by the librarians and its reception in a territory. In this region, public librairies are put to the test in many ways. The distance of the majority of the population and several conflicts and tensions - conflicts between librarians and public, hostility against cultural actions developed by the libraries, possible acts of voluntary malicious damage directed against the equipment, complicate the local integration of these cultural institutions. At these problems we can add specific changements of the cultural field. The actual context of the redefining of hierarchies and of the cultural legitimacy affects directly librarians and asks the question of their social legitimacy. The thesis presents how the territorial integration difficulties of public libraries are rooted in the history and evolution of public reading policy on one side and neighborhoods and working classes on the other

This study examined the association between individual attachment and interactive conflict styles and the overall influence on marital satisfaction in 207 married individuals. The application of attachment theory to this study of adult romantic relationships was established via factor analysis and yielded two dimensions: self (anxiety) and other (avoidance). Accommodation and demand-withdraw were the two forms of conflict interaction studied, which, respectively, are constructive and destructive styles of engagement that impact marital satisfaction. Individuals completed self-report measures of attachment, accommodation, demand-withdraw and global marital satisfaction. The current study yielded statistically significant results and supported all of the research hypotheses. There were negative relationships found between the attachment dimensions of anxiety and avoidance and total accommodation, while positive relationships were determined between both attachment dimensions and demand-withdraw behaviors. In relationship to marital satisfaction, an individual's total accommodation was positively related, while demand-withdraw behaviors were inversely associated. There were also inverse relationships found between both the attachment dimensions and marital satisfaction. These findings suggest that the data are consistent with previous research on attachment, accommodation, demand-withdraw behavior and marital satisfaction. In addition to supporting prior findings, this study also had several unique contributions. A statistically significant relationship was found between the constructive and destructive conflict styles, which suggested total accommodation was associated with lower levels of demand-withdraw. In addition, a path model for the variables of attachment, accommodation, demand-withdraw and marital satisfaction was developed. This display of variables is especially useful in showing the bidirectionality of constructive and destructive behaviors in marriage. Research implications for these findings are presented and suggestions for future research are discussed.
