L’intégration dans l’organisation est une phase déterminante pour les nouvelles recrues. Processus d’apprentissage des ficelles d’un emploi, la socialisation organisationnelle est d’abord considérée comme un instant de contrôle de ses salariés par l’organisation (Van Mannen, 1971). Le rôle actif de l’individu est ensuite reconnu. Il prend la forme d’activités cognitives (Louis, 1980) et de comportements de recherche d’information (Morrison, 1993 ; Ashforth et Saks, 1996). Dans les sociétés de service qui connaissent un fort turnover, il est essentiel que le personnel travaillant au contact de la clientèle, représentant de son organisation, soit socialisé rapidement pour assurer une bonne qualité de service.La thèse explore les tactiques individuelles d’intégration efficaces des nouvelles recrues dans la restauration rapide et la grande distribution. Deux études qualitatives (transversale puis longitudinale) permettent d’identifier sept tactiques individuelles d’intégration et d’analyser leur évolution au cours des trois mois dans l’organisation. Le modèle de recherche révèle que le rôle actif des nouvelles recrues au cours de la socialisation organisationnelle améliore leur performance à travers l’effet médiateur des domaines de socialisation, résultats directs de ce processus. En revanche, les procédures organisationnelles de socialisation n’ont pas l’effet modérateur sur la relation entre les tactiques mises en œuvre par les nouvelles recrues et les domaines. L’apport principal de cette recherche est la présentation d’une approche de la socialisation à travers la dialectique individu /groupe social. / Organizational integration is a determinant phase for new recruits. Defined as the process of learning the ropes of new job, organizational socialization was first considered an instrument of control over individuals (Van Mannen and Shein, 1979). Later, the proactive role of new recruits, through cognitive (Louis, 1980) and information seeking activities (Morrison, 1993; Ashforth and Saks, 1996), was recognized. In service firms where turnover is high, it is important that customer contact workers, representing their organization, be quickly socialized to insure a good quality of service.Individual integration efficient tactics of new recruits is explored in the retailing industry end fast-food operations. Seven individual integration tactics and their evolution over the first three months in the organization were analyzed through a transversal and a longitudinal qualitative study. The research model revealed that new recruits proactivity during the socialization process increased work performance through the mediating socialization domains, which are direct socialization. Organizational socialization tactics had no moderating effect on the relation between individual integration tactics and socialization domains. The main contribution of this research is a presentation of the socialization literature through the individual/social group dialectic.

Det här är en kvalitativ studie i vilken både intervjuer och dokumentanalys genomförts för att på ett övergripande sätt studera de brottsförebyggande verksamheter och instanser som finns och verkar i Karlstad. Syftet har varit att presentera en bild av de samlade verksamheterna utifrån kriminologiska begrepp. En analys av arbetssätten samt organisationernas ideologi har utförts för att problematisera och diskutera organisationernas utgångspunkter och ideologi så som syn på samhället, människan och framför allt förklaringar till brottslighet. Analysen har primärt grundats i kriminologiska begrepp om brottsförebyggande samt Rolf Lidskogs analys av det brottsförebyggande programmet. Detta har resulterat i en slutsats som visar att det i det brottsförebyggande arbetet i Karlstad finns olika föreställningar och ideologier om samhället och människan, men de delar en uppfattning om att brottets orsak är socialt betingad, det vill säga ett resultat av socialisationsprocesser och normer.

During World War II and the years immediately following, a successful Sydney businessman, Lesley Owen (L.O.) Bailey, initiated a unique social experiment. Bailey formed an organisation, the Youth Welfare Association of Australia (YWAA), which took into its care 86 ‘war babies’, 43 boys and 43 girls, children who were unable, for a number of reasons, to be cared for by their natural parents. For the next 20 years, these children were cared for by Bailey and the YWAA in a number of homes throughout NSW, which he established for the purpose, the primary home being located at Hopewood House, Bowral. The children were raised entirely on a natural diet, primarily fresh vegetables and fruit. Formal medical care was limited, with medical interventions emphasising the preventative properties of the natural health diet, rather than the use of conventional medical cures. The children were subjected to regular medical, and in particular dental, surveillance and measurement, the results of which were formally published in learned medical and dental journals in Australia during the 1950s. Bailey’s stated intention was to demonstrate the virtues of his regime of diet and health, and the physical improvements which could be derived from his regime. This thesis examines the bio-political dimensions of Bailey’s project within the context of scientific modernity. Within this context, the project is examined from three major perspectives. First, the project is examined as a eugenics experiment. It is argued that Bailey’s project was eugenically motivated, with the intention in the first instance of improving the physical being of the generation of children under his control. The second major dimension examines the disciplines of bodily regulation within Hopewood, and in particular the Hopewood diet. Diet is viewed as a mode of social discipline, imposed within the framework of a total institution for purposes of bio-political enhancement of the species being. For Bailey, diet is the mode of regulation which enables the eugenic outcome of trans-generational bodily enhancement. Third, the thesis examines the implications of social contructions of childhood within the bio-political context, in particular, issues of the ownership of children and children’s bodies. Bailey’s project was an experiment enacted on the bodies of children, and it is argued that social constructions of childhood, especially the discourses surrounding innocence and socialisation, define social ownership and constrain children’s social membership. This thesis is an examination of how society views children, what society sees as the role of children, and the kinds of practices which these constructions sanction towards children. It also illuminates an episode in the history of the Australian eugenics movement, and especially the eugenics of diet. This thesis is a record of a unique Australian social experiment, and its impact on a number of individual lives / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
