Évolution de la pratique et de la perception de l’excision au Burkina Faso entre 1998 et 2003Valma, Joannah 10 1900 (has links)
Entre 100 et 140 millions de femmes, de petites filles et d’adolescentes sont excisées
(Andro et Lesclingrand, 2007). Les risques sanitaires de l’excision sont élevés et
concernent la santé reproductive, physique et psychologique des femmes. Les nouvelles
migrations et l’augmentation des pays qui légifèrent l’excision ont contribué à
l’internationalisation de l’excision et à la modification de son processus. On constate
actuellement une tendance de l’excision à devenir une pratique clandestine et une perte de
sa signification rituelle. En même temps, les mouvements de lutte internationaux, régionaux
autant que nationaux prennent de l’ampleur et connaissent une période de mutation afin de
contrer la nouvelle figure de l’excision. Le Burkina Faso ne fait pas exception. Le
gouvernement burkinabé s’est clairement positionné en faveur du mouvement de lutte
contre l’excision et met en place de nombreux dispositifs juridiques, politiques et
économiques afin d’en soutenir les initiatives. En 2003, 77 % des femmes burkinabè âgées
de 15 à 49 ans se déclaraient excisées. Parallèlement, on assiste à une diminution de la
pratique chez leurs filles entre 1998 et 2003 et à une augmentation du nombre de Burkinabè
se déclarant contre la pratique. Pourtant en 2003, environ 40 % des femmes ont excisé ou
souhaitent exciser leurs filles et environ 24 % des hommes et 26 % des femmes sont
encore favorables à la perpétuation de l’excision. Ce mémoire s’intéresse d’abord aux
changements de pratique, de connaissance et d’attitudes par rapport à l’excision entre 1998
et 2003. Il s’intéresse ensuite aux déterminants socioculturels, démographiques et
économiques favorisant la persistance de cette pratique au sein de la société burkinabé et
aux obstacles rencontrés par les intervenants pour combattre l’excision sur le terrain. Pour
ce faire la recherche associe méthodes quantitatives et qualitatives. Elle combine analyses
statistiques des données des enquêtes démographiques de santé de 2003 et de 1998 et
analyse des données d’entretiens collectées auprès d’acteurs sur le terrain entre le premier
et le 10 octobre 2005. / Between 100 and 140 million women, young and teenage girls have undergone feminine
genital cutting (Andro and Lesclingrand, 2007). The medical risks of excision are high and
relate to the reproductive, physical and psychological health of women. New migrations
and the increase of countries legislating female genital cutting contributed to the
internationalization of the practice and to the changes in its process. The loss of the ritual
significance of excision and the increase as a concealed practice have clearly been noticed.
In the meantime, the international movements fighting it, regional as well as national,
amplify and put changes together in order to counter the new figure of female genital
cutting. Burkina Faso does not make exception. The Government has clearly positioned
itself in favour of movements fighting excision; and has set up many legal, political and
economic devices in order to support their initiatives. In 2003, 77% of Burkina Faso
women aged between 15 to 49 years old were declared excised. In parallel, a reduction in
the practice for their daughter between 1998 and 2003 is noted as well as an increase in the
number of Burkina Faso people declaring themselves against the practice. However in
2003, approximately 40% of women have performed or would like their daughter to
undergo the cut; and approximately 24% of men and 26% of women are still encouraging
the perpetuation of excision. This thesis’ first concern is the changes in the practice, and the
knowledge and attitudes regarding excision between 1998 and 2003. Secondly, the
attention is drawn on the socio-cultural, demographic and economic determinants indulging
the doggedness of this practice within Burkina Faso people and on the concrete obstacles
workers encounter on the ground. Therefore this research associates quantitative and
qualitative methods. It combines statistic analysis of the Demographic and Health Surveys
of 2003 and 1998 data; and analyzes data collected from talks made between October 1
st
and 10th, 2005 with fields’ workers.

What Went Wrong? How Arrogant Ignorance and Cultural Misconceptions Turned Deadly at the San Antonio Courthouse, March 19, 1840Copeland, Cristen Paige 05 1900 (has links)
Although the Council House Fight is well written about in the annals of early Texas history, this all-encompassing study will reveal a whole new picture. Unlike previous works that maintained one point of view, multiple perspectives were analyzed and explored to allow a more comprehensive view of the Council House Fight to emerge. Primary focus on social and cultural misunderstandings, as well as the mounting hostility between the Penateka Comanche and Texians across the frontier, will demonstrate their general distrust and hatred of the other. Detailing their complicated relationship will prove that neither the Texians nor the Comanche were without blame, and both shared responsibility for the deterioration of events on and before March 19, 1840.

Examining the Possibilities of Live, Virtual, Constructive (LVC) / Undersökning av möjlig användning av Live, Virtual, Constructive (LVC)Thunström, Josefine January 2024 (has links)
Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) is a relatively newly developed system of systems concept designed to provide a new way of conducting training for, but not exclusively, fighter pilots. “Train like you fight” is a commonly used quote when talking about LVC. The ability to create an environment where fighter pilots are able to train in an environment that is as much alike their working environment as possible will give the pilots a huge advantage when having to work in such a challenging and dangerous environment like active war. Besides training, other areas to use LVC have been discussed, and one of those areas is system test and analysis for weapon systems. In this thesis the ability to use LVC as a system test and analysis tool is investigated. This is done by the development of a model of what the LVC system looks like, then a suggestion of an LVC-design with the purpose of using the system as a test and analysis tool is presented. The design is based on SWOT-analyses based on previous research and on LVC products existing on the market. To validate this design a workshop with experts was conducted to receive input on the design as well as discuss the possibilities of Sweden implementing LVC in the future. After the workshop the LVC-design was updated with the points from the workshop. / Live, Virtual och Constructive eller LVC är ett relativt nyutvecklat system av systemkoncept som är utformat för att tillhandahålla ett nytt sätt att genomföra träning för, men inte enbart, stridspiloter. "Träna som du slåss" är ett vanligt citat när man talar om LVC. Förmågan att skapa en miljö där stridspiloter kan träna så likt deras arbetsmiljö som möjligt, d.v.s. aktivt krig, kommer att ge piloterna en enorm fördel när de måste arbeta i en så utmanande och farlig omgivning. Förutom träning har andra användningsområden för LVC diskuterats, och ett av dessa områden är systemtest och systemanalys för vapensystem. I denna rapport undersöks just förmågan att använda LVC som ett systemtest- och analysverktyg. Detta görs genom att utveckla en modell för hur LVC systemet ser ut och vilka förändringar som skulle behöva göras för att det ska kunna fungera som ett systemtest- och analysverktyg, detta resulterar i en modell av en LVC-design. Den modellen är baserad på SWOT-analyser som i sin tur är baserade på tidigare forskning och på LVC-produkter som finns på marknaden. För att validera denna modell genomförs en workshop med experter för att få input om modellen samt diskutera möjligheterna för Sverige att eventuellt implementera LVC i framtiden. Efter workshopen uppdaterades LVC-designen med punkter från workshopen.

Utopias em rotação: análise do discurso da esquerda armada brasileira / Utopias in Rotation: discourse analysis of the armed left BrazilianFulaneti, Oriana de Nadai 07 May 2010 (has links)
Este trabalho visa contribuir com os estudos semióticos, analisando a estrutura e o funcionamento do discurso das duas organizações mais importantes da esquerda armada brasileira nas décadas de 1960 e 1970, a Ação Libertadora Nacional (ALN) e a Vanguarda Popular Revolucionária (VPR), à luz dos conceitos retóricos de éthos e páthos. No contexto da ditadura brasileira e sob a influência de acontecimentos como a Guerra do Vietnam e a Revolução Cubana, entre outros, uma parcela da esquerda decidiu-se pela revolução, formando grupos militantes para lutar contra o governo. Esses grupos, que atuaram no Brasil entre 1968 e 1973, foram massacrados pelo regime militar, grande parte dos combatentes sendo assassinada e os sobreviventes passando por tortura, prisão, clandestinidade e exílio. No intuito de compreender a opção pela luta armada, bem como os valores e os impulsos de mobilização desses indivíduos, realizamos uma análise comparativa dos elementos éticos e passionais em documentos deixados pela ALN e pela VPR, com base nos princípios teórico-metodológicos da semiótica discursiva de linha francesa. A abordagem da noção de ator da enunciação e, em particular, da idéia de éthos e de páthos, a partir da perspectiva semiótica, revelou semelhanças e diferenças entre os discursos da ALN e da VPR, fundadas essencialmente nos aspectos passionais. / This doctoral thesis is intended to contribute to the field of semiotic studies by examining the discoursive structure of texts of the two most important Brazilian armed left-wing organizations in the 1960s and 1970s, namely the Ação Libertadora Nacional [National Liberty Action] (ALN) and the Vanguarda Popular Revolucionária [Popular Revolutionary Avant-Garde] (VPR), in the light of the rhetorical concepts of éthos and páthos. In the context of the dictatorial period in Brazil, and influenced by the ideals of the Vietnam War and the Cuban Revolution, amongst other events, left-wing militants decided in favour of the revolution, by forming armed groups to fight against the government. These groups, in activity in Brazil in the period between 1968 and 1973, were eventually massacred by military regime, the majority of the combatants being murdered and those who survived suffering torture, living clandestinely, or sent to prison or into exile. Aiming at an understanding of the option for the armed fight as well as of the values and mobilizing impulse of these individuals, we comparatively analysed ethical and passion elements in documents in the ALN\'s and the VPR\'s respective archives, according to the theoretical-methodological principles of French discoursive semiotics. The approach of the notion of enunciation actor and particularly of the concepts of éthos and páthos, from a semiotic perspective, revealed similarities and differences in the discourses of the ALN and the VPR, based essentially on passion aspects.
