Le traitement de la crise économique par les agences de presse : une comparaison France / Espagne / The processing of the economic crisis by the news agencies : a comparison France / Spain / El tratamiento de la crisis económica por las agencias de noticias : una comparación Francia / EspañaMoreno Calvo, Mariola 16 January 2018 (has links)
L’analyse des dépêches des agences de presse française (AFP) et espagnole (EFE) à l’aide du logiciel libre IRaMuTeQ permet de visualiser, d’une part la macrostructure qui montre une convergence entre les deux corpus, et d’autre part des microstructures qui distinguent des traitements spécifiques par les agences des deux pays, associant une classification du vocabulaire et une comparaison interprétative des structures lexicales, révèle une focalisation différente : lorsque l’AFP établit une distinction entre les aspects économiques (contexte mondial) et politiques (contexte national), l’EFE l’aborde davantage comme un problème politique en lien direct avec l’économie nationale et l’Europe. L’impact du vécu de la crise sur le discours médiatique est confirmé par une dernière analyse de la dimension chronologique qui révèle, dans les deux cas, l’impact d’un changement électoral. L’approche textométrique permet donc de reconstruire une histoire à partir des relations existantes entre textes, co-textes et contextes, c’est-à-dire entre les évènements socio-historiques, les producteurs de discours médiatiques et des structures lexicales formalisées. / The analysis of the news from the French Agency (AFP) and the Spanish (EFE) allows visualizing, on the one hand, a convergence in the macroestructure of the corpus and, on the other hand, a specific treatment of each country in the microstructure, a deeper analysis, combining a classification of vocabulary and an interpretive comparison of lexical structures, reveals a different focusing: while the AFP makes a distinction between the economic aspects (global context) and political ones (national context), the EFE takes it up more strenuously as a political issue directly related to the national economy and Europe. These results have been obtained with the help of the software IRaMuTeQ. The impact of the experience of the crisis on the media discourse is confirmed by the final analyses of the chronological dimension which reveals, in south cases, the impact of an electoral change. The use of textometric approach allows us the building of the story with the relations among the texts, the co-texts and the contexts, that is, among the socio-historical events, the producers of the media discourse and the lexical structures used.

Regulation Theory And Economic Crises: The Cases Of Greece And TurkeyUctug, Cagan 01 December 2012 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis analyzes the economic crises of recent years through the lens of the Regulation Theory. It focuses on the Greek Crisis of 2009 and the Turkish Financial Crises of 2000 and 2001. Furthermore it also analyzes the crisis in the United States to give a better grounding for the current crises. The thesis tries to answer the questions of whether or not Regulation Theory proves to be a sufficient tool for analyzing these crises and whether or not these fit the definition of crisis that the Regulation Theory puts forward. It is argued that Regulation Theory explains to a great extent both the causes and the structure of the crises.

The Buck Stops Here: The President as Manager of the U.S. Economy during CrisisWalker, Carol D 15 July 2010 (has links)
The President performs many roles, but one role of increasing importance over time is that of Chief Manager of the Economy. In the era of the modern presidency, there has been a growing institutionalization of the executive branch’s management of the economy. Presidents approach economic management differently depending upon their personalities, management style, and their time within both the crisis and the administration. Three case studies will be used to explore the differences and similarities in presidential actions during times of economic crisis: these case studies will examine the presidencies of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Richard M. Nixon, and William J. Clinton. The different methods and policy actions taken by these presidents are described as change oriented economic policy, electoral gain economic policy, and preemptive economic policy. This research will examine these methods to determine: 1.) How did each president approach economic policy? 2.) Were their approaches similar to a domestic policy or foreign policy? and 3.) What factors influence these approaches?

台灣產業後備軍的變遷及理論探討 / The theory and changes of Taiwan’s Reserve Army of Labour王淳芳, Wang, Chun Fang Unknown Date (has links)
自1980年代起新自由主義的崛起,主張自由市場、自由貿易、和不受限制的資本流動,認為這樣將能創造出最大的社會、政治、和經濟的利益,並以全球化來運用全世界的資源,但卻反而使失業成為全球性的普遍趨勢。在歷經了幾次的全球性金融危機,尤其是近年2008年由美國次貸危機引起的全球金融海嘯,更是令各國的失業率皆明顯上升。隨著新自由主義全球化的擴張,主流經濟學對於日漸嚴重的失業問題顯然已不足以提供充分的解釋,因而社會上開始對失業現象尋求另一種解釋。
本研究希望對於現今的失業現象,找出一個較為合理的解釋。首先分別闡述了主流經濟學和馬克思《資本論》中對於失業問題的解釋,再就馬克思在《資本論》中對相對過剩人口的定義,將台灣產業後備軍分為四種類型,並以時間序列對台灣勞動力市場中,產業後備軍的定量及流動量做分析,觀察其整體走勢及在景氣衰退期的變化。由第三章中的統計表以及趨勢圖,我們觀察出數種現象,有力的直接支持了《資本論》中所指出的,資本主義的內在規律對勞動階級影響的看法。
從本篇研究和Deepankar Basu(2013)在“The Reserve Army of Labor in the Postwar U. S. Economy”文中對美國失業現象作的分析,均得出一致性的結論,即馬克思對於失業的解釋是較為科學且周全的,認為《資本論》對於資本主義中的失業現象的觀點,是相較於主流經濟學學說,更具有科學性和合理性的論述。 / Neoliberalism, which claims that free markets and trade, globalization of world resources, and unrestricted capital flow will maximally benefit the interests of society, politics, and the economy, rose to prominence in the 1980s. However, the outcome was far from the perceived ideal, resulting in an increase in worldwide unemployment. After several global financial crises, in particular the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008, the unemployment rate dramatically increased in every country. With the expansion of neoliberal globalization, the worldwide unemployment problem has become increasingly unmanageable with mainstream economic policies, prompting economists everywhere to seek alternative solutions to this issue.
The purpose of this study is to find a more accurate explanation of the current worldwide unemployment problem. First, we will frame the unemployment problem from the perspective of mainstream economics and contrast it with that of “Das Kapital”. Next, we will classify Taiwan’s reserve army of labor into four categories, according to the definition provided in “Das Kapital”. Thirdly, we will analyze the stocks and flows of Taiwan’s reserve army of labor via time series, and observe the trends and changes during economic recessions. Finally, after analysis of the statistical tables and run charts in chapter 3, we validate the perspective taken by “Das Kapital” - that the inherent law of capitalism has negatively influenced the working class.
From the analysis of unemployment in America performed by Deepankar Basu(2013)along with this study, we can conclude “Das Kapital” explains the unemployment problem of capitalism in a more scientific and comprehensive manner when compared to the explanations provided by mainstream economic theory.

Το οικονομικό και το πολιτισμικό κεφάλαιο των εκπαιδευομένων των ΣΔΕ, καθώς και οι προσδοκίες τους στην περίοδο της οικονομικής κρίσης. Η περίπτωση του ΣΔΕ Αγ. ΑναργύρωνΚυριαζοπούλου, Ευανθία 03 May 2015 (has links)
Σκοπός της παρούσας μελέτης είναι αφενός να διερευνήσει το οικονομικό και πολιτισμικό κεφάλαιο των εκπαιδευομένων του Σχολείου Δεύτερης Ευκαιρίας (ΣΔΕ) Αγίων Αναργύρων κι αφετέρου να ανιχνεύσει τις προσδοκίες που αναμένουν από την αύξηση του συνολικού τους κεφαλαίου μέσω της αξιοποίησης του νεοαποκτηθέντος απολυτηρίου τους. Επιπλέον, αναζητά τον βαθμό ταύτισης των προσδοκιών τους με τους διακηρυγμένους στόχους του θεσμού των ΣΔΕ. Το θεωρητικό πλαίσιο της έρευνάς μας βασίζεται στη θεωρία της πρακτικής του Pierre Bourdieu η οποία συνδέει το κεφάλαιο με την έξη (habitus) και το πεδίο. Η συλλογή των δεδομένων έγινε με τη χρήση 14 ημι-δομημένων συνεντεύξεων και η επεξεργασία τους με ποιοτική ανάλυση περιεχομένου. Τα ερευνητικά μας ευρήματα κατέδειξαν ότι υπάρχει διαφοροποίηση των προσδοκιών μεταξύ των ενήλικων εκπαιδευομένων οι οποίες οφείλονται στις ενσωματωμένες «έξεις» τους καθώς και στο διαφορετικό οικονομικό και πολιτισμικό τους κεφάλαιο. Διαπιστώνεται επίσης ότι οι προσδοκίες των εκπαιδευομένων κατά την περίοδο της οικονομικής κρίσης δεν ταυτίζονται με τους διακηρυγμένους στόχους των ΣΔΕ, όσον αφορά τη μετάβασή τους στο πεδίο της εργασίας. / The purpose of this study is to investigate on the one hand, the economic and cultural capital of learners of Second Chance School (SCS) of Ag. Anargiroi and on the other hand, to detect their expectations on the increase of their total capital by boosting their qualifications through the newly acquired High school degree. Furthermore, the research focuses on to what extent their expectations meet the stated goals of the institution of SCSs. The theoretical framework of our research is based on the theory of practice by Pierre Bourdieu, which connects the capital both with the exis (habitus) and social field. The data collection was performed by using the technique of 14 semi-structured interviews which were thereafter processed with the use of qualitative content analysis. The surveyed data showed that there is a variation among adult learners’ expectations which were mostly due to their embodied "habitus", as well as, their different economic and cultural capital. What is more, the results demonstrated that the learners’ expectations during the period of economic crisis do not identify with the stated goals of SCS regarding their transition to the field of labor.

MODELLING THE EFFECTS OF ECONOMIC CRISIS ON THE TYPE OF GOVERNMENTTROMBETTA, FEDERICO 01 April 2015 (has links)
Questa tesi contribuisce alla letteratura di economia politica attraverso l’analisi degli effetti di una crisi economica sulla tipologia di governo. In particolare, ci si concentra su due tipologie di governo che possono essere viste come anomalie empiricamente correlate a fenomeni di crisi economica e finanziaria: il populismo e la tecnocrazia.
Dopo una rassegna critica della letteratura esistente, si sviluppano due distinti modelli di teoria dei giochi. Il primo analizza il populismo nel contesto di una relazione principale-agente tra l’elettore e il politico. Concentrandosi su come la probabilità che si affermi un governo populista è influenzata dai parametri che catturano la situazione economica del Paese, si dimostra che, in un contesto di crisi economica, è più probabile che il governo attui provvedimenti populisti.
Il secondo modello spiega la comparsa di un governo tecnocratico (e in parte anche la sua stabilità) in un sistema politico in cui gli agenti principali sono due partiti e, in alcuni casi, un gruppo di tecnocrati. Qui si prova che il governo tecnocratico ha più probabilità di emergere in un contesto di crisi economica, quando il parlamento è equamente diviso e quando la distanza ideologica tra i due partiti è sufficientemente grande. / This thesis contributes to the literature on theoretical political economy analyzing the effects of economic crisis on the types of government. In particular, we focus on two types of government that can be seen as anomalies empirically related with the emergence of financial and economic crisis: populism and technocracy.
After a critical survey of the existing literature on those topics, we develop two different game-theoretical models. The first one studies populism in the context of a standard political-agency relationship between a voter and a politician. We see how the likelihood of the emergence of a populist government is affected by parameters representing the economic conditions of a country, and we find that, in a context of economic crisis, the government is more likely to make populist decisions.
The second model explains the emergence of a technocratic government (and captures some issues related to its stability) in a post-election partisan politics setting where the main players are two parties and possibly a group of technocrats. We prove that the technocratic government is more likely to emerge in a context of economic crisis, when the parliament is evenly split and the ideological distance between the two parties is big enough.

Culture, Conflict and Crises in the Icelandic Fisheries : An Anthropological Study of People, Policy and Marine Resources in the North Atlantic ArcticEinarsson, Níels January 2011 (has links)
This thesis is offered as a contribution to studies of social and cultural change in the Icelandic fisheries and fishing communities. Such changes may be seen as a result of the interplay of internal dynamics with both national and global forces and processes, not least with regard to the impacts of fisheries governance. These changes occur also in an international context of new environmental ideologies and perceptions of marine mammals, with consequences for social dynamics of local resource-use. Here it is argued that the conflicts over the harvesting or conservation of cetaceans can productively be understood from a cultural perspective. The thesis discusses the elevation of whales as symbols of particular value, and the metaphorical and cognitive aspects of, in particular, anthropomorphism, the projection of human motives and values onto animal behaviour, as a significant and effective part of conservation rhetoric and ideology. Specifically, the thesis deals with issues concerning whaling and whale watching along with issues and debates concerning these alternative forms of exploiting marine mammals. It also discusses central questions regarding fisheries governance and rights to fishing with reference to social and economic viability in Icelandic fishing communities. The unifying themes of this thesis are: how marine-mammal issues and controversies and social impacts of fisheries governance form part of globalization processes; how environmental and economic paradigms influence change, particularly in terms of marine-mammal conservation campaigns and market liberalist resource policy; and how these external ideological forces call for responses at local and national levels. The adaptive actions of the human agents and communities involved are described as creative, cumulative and complex. The thesis also highlights the central transformative role of the new regime of private property rights introduced into Icelandic fisheries governance in the 1980s.

L’existence du champ journalistique roumain après la crise économique de 2008 / The existence of the Romanian journalistic field after the economic crisis of 2008Gubernat-Rammelt, Ruxandra 20 December 2017 (has links)
Cette étude se propose d'analyser les développements qui ont mené à l'état actuel du champ journalistique roumain, après la crise financière de 2008, par lesquels ce milieu professionnel ne parvient pas à convaincre ses acteurs de la viabilité de ses principes. Ma principale hypothèse est que la collision entre deux systèmes de valeurs divergents –l'intersection du modèle allogène, néolibéral, avec les valeurs et les nécessités locales –établit un champ hybride intégrant des éléments des deux cultures, sans incorporer la somme de leurs éléments. Ce champ hybride, caractérisé par un haut degré d'ouverture envers la renégociation, la réinterprétation et le rétablissement des principes qui guident le journalisme, engendre aussi une certaine dimension anomique au sein de ses acteurs. Afin d’établir l’existence du champ journalistique en Roumanie après 2008, une analyse à partir de trois dimensions principales était envisagée : une première dimension serait la rupture politique, qui a imposé une réflexion sur les directions et les choix des modèles dans le nouveau marché médiatique pluraliste ; une deuxième dimension identifiée est le profond changement technologique superposé sur cette étape de compréhension de l’agir journalistique ; troisièmement, la crise financière débutée en 2008, qui a déstabilisé mondialement le milieu journalistique et qui a engendré une remise en cause du journalisme. Nous avons pu remarquer : • Une contradiction idéologique au niveau macro, c'est à dire que les institutions adhèrent au modèle, mais ce n'est pas le principe directeur de leurs démarches, qui sont surtout guidées par les réalités en place ; • Et au niveau micro, une contradiction marquante entre la compréhension du modèle et la manière d’agir : décalage entre le niveau argumentatif – avec la compréhension que le modèle de l'Ouest qui est fortement attractif – et le mode d'agir, où les individus doivent se plier aux coutumes et aux valeurs locales, qui ne sont pas en concordance avec le système de référence auquel ils adhéreraient. / This study aims to analyze the developments that led to the current state of the Romanianjournalistic field, after the financial crisis of 2008, by which this professional environment fails to convince its actors of the viability of its principles. My main hypothesis is that the collision between two divergent value systems - the intersection of the neoliberal allogeneic model with local values and necessities - establishes a hybrid field integrating elements of both cultures without incorporating the sum of their elements. This hybrid field, characterized by a high degree of openness towards renegotiation, reinterpretation and restoration of the principles that guide journalism, also creates a certain anomic dimension of its actors. In order to establish the existence of the journalistic field in Romania after 2008, an analysis based on three main dimensions was envisaged: a first dimension would be the political rupture which imposed a reflection on the directions and choices of models in the new pluralist media market;; a second dimension identified is the profound technological change superimposed on this stage of understanding journalistic acts;; third, the financial crisis which began in 2008, which destabilized the journalistic environment in Romania. Our main discovery is that of the existence of double standards in the practice and in the evaluation of Romanian journalism by its actors:• An ideological contradiction at the macro level, i.e. institutions adhere to the model, but this is not the guiding principle of their approaches, which are mainly guided by the realities in place ;• At the micro level, the contradiction between the understanding of the model and the waythis model is enacted: a discrepancy between the argumentative level - with theunderstanding that the Western model is highly attractive - and the mode of action whereindividuals must comply with local customs and values, which are not in accordance with thesystem of reference to which they adhere.

Labour market status and well-being during the Great Recession : a changing relationship?Bayliss, David January 2016 (has links)
This thesis investigates the relationship between labour market statuses and well-being in the UK working age population, and the moderating role of the Great Recession. Research on the relationship between labour market statuses and well-being outcomes identifies negative associations with unemployment and economic inactivity. These findings are typically presented as independent of macroeconomic conditions, but to what extent does this assumption hold? The central proposition of this thesis, is that economic crises moderate the way in which labour market statuses affect well-being, thereby changing the value of statuses, not just their prevalence. The main research question addressed is ‘for the UK working age population, to what extent did labour market and employment statuses contribute to the greater or lesser effects of the economic crisis (2007/8–2011) on well-being, compared to the pre-recession ‘boom’ period (2003/4–2006/7)?’I make use of a national panel data series from the British Household Panel Survey and Understanding Society. Firstly, after critiquing the reliance on subjective well-being (SWB) measures, confirmatory factor analysis is used to develop a measure of positive psychological health, representing a single dimension of well-being. This is then compared to a measure of SWB in a series of latent growth models to investigate individual trajectories over the study period. Secondly, multilevel models are used to estimate the relationship between five labour market and employment statuses and positive psychological health, comparing the pre-recession and recession periods. Finally, a dynamic structural equation modelling approach is used to investigate selection and causation in the relationship between labour market status and positive psychological health. Aggregate positive psychological health was associated with a recession period decline, in contrast to SWB which remained stable. Labour market statuses were found to moderate the impact of recession. People who were economically inactive were associated with the largest declines in positive psychological health during the recession period, compared to the pre-recession period, followed by those in standard employment. In contrast, the relationship between non-standard employment and unemployment and positive psychological health remained constant over time. Finally, despite evidence of selection into labour market statuses, the findings show a strong causal impact of statuses on positive psychological health. The findings provide a different take on those hardest hit by recession, showing that some of the most vulnerable to low psychological health were most exposed to the impact of recession by virtue of their labour market status. The protective value of standard employment was also diminished relatively. Evidence in favour of a causal interpretation suggests policy makers should use employment and welfare policy to prevent an accumulation of welfare issues.
