The aim of this study was to explore, through social workers' perspectives, the reasonsbehind the engagement of young adults in digital drug dealing in Sweden. The researchpurpose was also to explore the costs that digital drug dealing had brought to the lives ofthese young adults. As part of the study's qualitative approach, three professionals withexperience meeting this population were interviewed using semi-structured questions.The sample consisted of three social workers who hold experiences within the field ofsubstance abuse and have encountered digital drug dealers. Findings revealed that socialproblems had an impact on motivating young adults into digital drug dealing. The effectsof economic hardships and lack of integration and acculturation acted as stress factorsthat led young adults to cope in an illegal manner. Other motivations were young adults'need for financial gratitude and sensations of power. The development of social media,in addition, had facilitated the process of such decision-making. As a result, the costshave forced offenders to deal with internet blackmail, paranoia, and feelings of guilt.Moreover, the costs included offenders’ engagement of further criminal activities such asweapon possessions and physical violence. The findings were then connected to thechosen theoretical framework consisting of both strain and rational choice theories

The automobile dealership is one of the more important types of small business. The operation of such a business is an integral part of the economy of the country, and conditions existing in the automobile field are usually fairly representative of those in other types of small business; therefore, the general personnel policies of an automobile dealership are basically similar to personnel policies of other small businesses in the distributive field. A study of personnel policies in this field will be of some use to anyone interested in the problems of small business.

L’art de Rembrandt, s’il est vivement admiré dans la France du XVIIIe siècle, n’en déroute pas moins ces biographes. En dépit d’un génie largement reconnu, il incarne le rejet des règles classiques défendues par l’académie royale de peinture et de sculpture. De fait ces contempteurs n’ont de cesse de dénoncer sa manière « peu léchée », son « style raboteux » ainsi que sa prétendue méconnaissance de la peinture italienne. Son œuvre gravé seul échappe à cette doxa : si la technique du peintre est pour une grande part incomprise, ses gravures, a contrario, font l’objet d’un véritable engouement, ouvrant par là-même de vastes perspectives au sein de l’histoire de l’art du XVIIIe siècle français : théoriques d’abord, puisque ses estampes font l’objet du premier catalogue raisonné en 1751 par Edme-François Gersaint (1694-1751), Jean-Baptiste Glomy (1694-1750) et Pierre-Charles –Alexandre Helle ( ?-1767), artistique ensuite, encourageant par son exemple l’art de la gravure, donnant naissance à de nombreuses imitations, copies, pastiches, fruit du labeur appliqué tant des graveurs professionnels que des amateurs éclairés, fervents collectionneurs de son œuvre gravé. / In the beginning of the eighteenth century, the reception of the Rembrandt ‘s prints is ambivalent, account of the difficulty to conciliate the evident genius of the Dutch master with the classical norms of the French Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture. What is more, the majority of French amateurs doesn’t know wery well the Rembrandt’s prints : most of them are part of the dutch culture, illustration of dutch books, ( Médéa), dutch customs (The star of the Kings) or dutch citizen ( Jan Six). The multiplication of the impressions of a same print adds to this problem. This explain why Edme-François Gersaint (1694-1750), one of the most important art dealer in Paris compiled the first comprehensive book to understand the Rembrandt’s prints, a Catalogue raisonné, published in 1751, which he introduced to this form for the first time. With this book, Gersaint gives to the Rembrandt’s prints numbers and titles which are still in use nowadays, and creates criteria to serve as a means for attributing a work to the master, a pupil, an imitator or a forgers. All this system has for result to avoid misunderstandings or confusions with the prints of Bol or Lievens. Translated in the year 1752 in English, it is reworked by Adam Bartsch in 1797 and sell in all Europe. This dissertation proposes to study the genesis of the Gersaint’s catalogue, how Rembrandt’s prints have permitted to create this particular form of art literature, how the French dealer finds anecdotes on Rembrandt’s prints and the titles, still in use nowadays. In a second part, we will interest us on the posterity of the catalogue, how it becames a model too and will modifies all the perception of Rembrandt oeuvre in particular and the perception of prints in general, a perception that we still have and, finally, giving birth to an important numbers of copies and pastiches caused by professionals engravers and amateurs.

Este trabalho é um estudo de caso múltiplo, realizado em concessionárias do setor automotivo, que visa ao levantamento do estado atual da gestão dos estoques de peças de reposição e sua correlação com os modelos existentes na literatura sobre o tema. O estudo englobou sete concessionárias de quatro marcas, apontadas por especialistas das respectivas associações como sendo exemplos de boa gestão neste segmento. Os resultados apontaram que, de fato, no nível gerencial pesquisado existem grandes lacunas entre as teorias acadêmicas e as práticas, em especial quanto ao uso de técnicas de previsão de demanda, à decisão de estocagem dos produtos e às políticas de estocagem adotadas. O principal motivo para explicar estas lacunas é o desconhecimento das técnicas pelos gestores. Este desconhecimento parece estar ligado às deficiências na formação escolar e nos cursos de aperfeiçoamento oferecidos, pelas montadoras e associações, aos gestores destes estoques. Novas pesquisas são sugeridas, ao nível dos proprietários/acionistas das concessionárias, para verificação de outras possíveis explicações sobre os motivos destas lacunas. A pesquisa é concluída com diversas recomendações, tanto aos praticantes como aos acadêmicos, buscando a redução destas lacunas. / This dissertation is a multiple case study, performed in automotive dealers. The objective is to evaluate current spare parts inventory management practices status and their correlations with existing models on academic references. The study included seven dealers (from four different brands) which were recognized as examples of good practices at spare parts management by the dealer association specialists. The results pointed out that, in fact, at the managerial level interviewed, there are large gaps between academic theories and management practice, especially on demand forecasting, stocking decision and stocking policies. The gaps are mainly explained by managers? lack of knowledge on inventory control. This lack of knowledge seems to be caused by school and specialization courses (provided by automakers and dealers associations) deficiencies. New researches are suggested, at the owners/stockholders level, to verify other possible gap reasons. Research is concluded with several recommendations to academics and managers in order to reduce the theory-practice gap.
