Cette étude s’intéresse au village de squatters de Roc-d’Or, surnommé Putainville, qui apparaît en 1936 avant d’être détruit par le gouvernement provincial au milieu des années 1940. Notre but est de comprendre pourquoi cette agglomération, qui est érigée illégalement sur les terrains gouvernementaux et qui est réputée pour être un important foyer de déviance, est relativement tolérée pendant une décennie avant que les résidences soient détruites ou déménagées à Malartic. D’abord, nous expliquons pourquoi cette agglomération, sans reconnaissance légale et dans laquelle les résidents ne sont pas propriétaires des terrains sur lesquels leurs bâtiments sont érigés, apparaît en Abitibi-Témiscamingue au début des années 1930. Ensuite, nous nous intéressons à l’aspect physique et à la population de Roc-d’Or. Le taux de masculinité, la mobilité, la diversité d’emploi et l’origine ethnique des résidents sont analysés. De plus, nous nous penchons sur la mauvaise réputation de Putainville : autant le contrôle judiciaire que la présence du monde interlope sont étudiés. Finalement, comme les mœurs légères des résidents et l’influence du curé de Malartic sont souvent considérées comme étant à l’origine de la décision d’éliminer ce village, nous évaluons la pertinence de cette croyance et nous déterminons si d’autres motifs, notamment monétaire ou politique, sont aussi entrés en ligne de compte. / This research is about the squatters’ village of Roc-d'Or nicknamed Putainville. It was established in 1936 and demolished by the Québec government in the mid 1940. Our objective is to learn why this town with a lawless reputation that was built on the government fields has been tolerated for a decade even if it was considered as illegal by the authority and to learn why all the buildings were destroyed or moved to Malartic. First of all, we will explain why this village without any legal status was built in the 1930s and why all the people who have lived in Roc-d'Or were not owners of their field. After that, the memoires will focus on the geographical and architectural aspect and on the population of Roc-d'Or. We'll explore the gender rate, the mobility of the people, the different kinds of jobs we found in Roc-d'Or and the ethnical origins of the inhabitants. Furthermore in this research, it will be about how was the reputation of the town. We will develop about the judicial intervention and the underworld. Finally, the last part of this dissertation will look at the idea that Roc-d'Or was shut down by the clerical authorities due to the deviant behavior, or we will try to see if it's a myth.

Fondamentale comme outil d'évangélisation, mais surtout comme espace de canalisation de la religiosité et de la spiritualité coloniale, la nature a su se manifester de manière diverse dans la production artistique de la vice-royauté du Pérou. Dans cette thèse, nous nous penchons sur le phénomène de la représentation de la nature dans la peinture andine coloniale, en nous concentrant en particulier sur la région occupée actuellement par le Pérou et la Bolivie, et sur une périodisation qui comprend principalement les XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Ce travail cherche à approfondir une problématique qui a été majoritairement oubliée ou sous-estimée par le discours critique de l’histoire de l’art de la période coloniale. Nous aborderons cette problématique à partir de différentes perspectives. Cependant, l'aspect religieux semble l’élément fondamental pour expliquer les principaux enjeux derrière ce geste pictural. La peinture de la nature et de l'espace fut représentative des valeurs et des fondements spirituels de la religiosité coloniale. Les andins ont pensé la nature comme un moyen de visualiser des expériences métaphysiques profondes, de repenser les identités religieuses et d’accorder aux images des pouvoirs magico-religieux qui s’avéraient essentiels pour le bien-être de différentes communautés. Bien que l’étude des rapports religieux soit indispensable pour élucider cette structure symbolique complexe, tant pour la peinture de paysage (comme unité organique), que pour la représentation des éléments individuels, la représentation de la nature a révélé, dans bien d'autres cas, des préoccupations concrètes directement liées aux circonstances, autant politique qu’ historique, de la société coloniale, en s’adaptant aux changements constants d’un espace et d’une société en transformation. Loin d'être uniquement soumis à l'exercice décoratif, ou dans le cas de la peinture religieuse, de remplir la fonction de contexte pictural, les peintres coloniaux ont valorisé cet élément en l'abordant comme un objet individuel, chargé de pouvoir symbolique et capable de transmettre des messages et de produire des discours, toujours en lien avec les préoccupations des différents secteurs de la société coloniale. / In the colonial period, the great subject matter of nature was instrumentalized by different sectors of Peruvian vice regal society. Essentially as an evangelization tool, but also as a space where colonial religiosity was manifested, the representation of nature was interpreted in different ways by artists and consumers of vice regal paintings. In this dissertation, we analyze the representation of nature in colonial Andean painting, focusing especially on the Central Andean region (currently covered by Peru and Bolivia) in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This work seeks to move forward on an issue that has been largely underestimated by critical discourse of art history regarding the Latin American colonial period. We will discuss this problem from different perspectives. However, the religious aspect seems to be above all a fundamental element to explain the key issues behind this pictorial manner. The representation of nature was consistent with spiritual values that forged colonial religiosity. Andean people considered nature as a way to visualize deep metaphysical experiences by rethinking religious identities and granting to the images magical-religious powers essential for the well-being of communities. Beyond the religious aspect, we focus on the analysis of other consequences and interests that are related to the different forms of representation of territories and elements of nature, allowing different social groups to assert their ideological, political and cultural positions. The representation of nature and space in colonial painting was never a simple decorative object, nor, in the case of religious painting, did it fulfil the role of scenographic framework and background to pictorial stories. The colonial painters treated this element with particular concern, conceding it special value and narrative powers, according to different preoccupations in colonial society.

The questions about the origin of evil in the world were often a secondary product of the great philosophical systems. One of the first thinkers to deal with that problem systematically was neoplatonic scholar Plotinus. He developed a theory which he considered to be only a continuation of Plato´s thinking. It became an original theory, which in its core, has influence to this day. This theory was, mostly thanks to St. Augustine, applied to christian theology and became the living doctrine. The goal of this thesis is to demonstrate in what Plotinus´ theory of evil was "christianized" through the hand of Augustin. In other words, how it trasformed from a pagan philosophy to a theological one and how it was preserved for rediscovery in the scholastic era and became a new-again topic of scholastic scholars.

The work focuses on the virtue of love by Thomas Aquinas. It mainly deals with the principles of love in the philosophy of T. Aquinas, but also with themes that with concept of love directly related - such as the general conception of virtue, goodness, happiness or sins against love. The thesis is divided into seven chapters. The first chapter is an introduction to the work of T. Aquinas. The second chapter deals with the basic characteristic of the concept of virtue and differentiation of natural and supernatural virtues. The next chapter deals with the concept of love itself. In this chapter there are the basic definitions and differentiation types of love. Another chapter is devoted to one of the question in Summa Theologica - About love itself which is perceived like basic question of the concept virtue of love by T. Aquinas. The fifth chapter deals with sins against love, which are seens as contravene to the love. Another sixth chapter focuses on whether love can be increased or decreased. The last chapter is devoted to the love from the today perspective.

The theoretical framework based on studies of beliefs (Pajares, 1992; Fishbein, 1975, Oliveira et al, 1998; Barcelos, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2006, Moscovici, 2003; Kalaja, 1995; Cotteral, 1995, Freeman and Johnson , 1998; Vieira- Abrahão, 2004, 2005, Borg 2006, Richards and Lockhart, 1994), about English teaching in public schools (Brazil, 1996, 1998, 2002; Dias, 2005b; Leffa, 1999, 2009, 2000; Cox & Assis-Peterson, 2008, Bohn, 2000, 2003; Micolli, 2007; Almeida Filho, 1992, 2003), and motivation ( Dörnyei 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2008; Pintrich and Schunk, 1996; Ribas, 2008, Deci and Ryan 1985, 2000; DECI et al. 1991; Bzuneck and Guimarães, 2003; Huberman, 1989). From an ethnographic research method the following data collection instruments were used: questionnaires, interviews, participant observation, field notes and narratives. The results have suggested that the vice-director and supervisors consider that English learning is very important and should start earlier in schools. However, they attribute a pragmatic value (labor market, globalization, vestibular) to English teaching in public school. They also believe that, unlike the private school conditions in the public schools are unfavorable to learning. The teacher revealed beliefs about the role of the teachers and the students, about EL teaching in public school, and about the difficulties and problems of her own practice. Comparing teacher s and vice-director and supervisors beliefs, there were more convergent beliefs than divergent. The results have also shown that the teacher seems motivated despite not being seen like that by some vice-director and supervisors. The relationship between the vice-director and supervisors beliefs and teacher s motivation are nonlinear. We hope that this study can contribute to the reflection and solve of challenging problems faced in the teaching of English in public schools. / Esta pesquisa foi realizada em uma escola pública, da cidade de Viçosa, do Estado de Minas Gerais, e teve como objetivos (a) investigar as crenças dos gestores (vice-diretor e supervisores) sobre ensino/aprendizagem de LI (Língua Inglesa) e sua possível influência na motivação do professor, (b) identificar as diferenças e semelhanças entre as crenças de gestores e as do professor sobre ensino e aprendizagem de LI, e(c) identificar a relação entre as crenças dos gestores, do professor e a motivação do professor para ensinar LI. O referencial teórico baseia-se nos estudos sobre crenças (Pajares, 1992; Fishbein, 1975; Oliveira et al, 1998; Barcelos, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2006; Moscovici, 2003; Kalaja, 1995; Cotteral, 1995; Freeman e Johnson, 1998; Vieira-Abrahão, 2004, 2005; Borg, 2006; Richards e Lockhart, 1994 ), sobre ensino de LI nas escolas públicas do Brasil (Brasil, 1996, 1998, 2002; Dias, 2005b; Leffa, 1999, 2009, 2000; Cox e Assis-Peterson 2008, Bohn, 2000, 2003; Micolli, 2007; Almeida Filho, 1992, 2003) e sobre motivação (Dörnyei 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2008; Pintrich e Schunk, 1996; Ribas, 2008, Deci e Ryan 1985, 2000; DECI et al., 1991; Bzuneck e Guimarães, 2003; Huberman , 1989). A metodologia escolhida foi a pesquisa de base etnográfica e foram utilizados os seguintes instrumentos de coleta: questionários, entrevistas, observação participante, notas de campo e narrativas. Os resultados sugerem que os gestores consideram a aprendizagem de inglês muito importante e acreditam que o ensino de LI nas escolas deveria começar mais cedo. Contudo, atribuem um valor pragmático ao ensino de LI na EP (escola pública) (mercado de trabalho, globalização, vestibular) e acreditam que, ao contrário da escola particular, as condições na EP são desfavoráveis à aprendizagem. A professora revela crenças sobre o papel do professor e dos alunos, sobre aprendizagem de LI na EP e sobre as dificuldades e problemas de sua própria prática. Essas crenças mostram-se relacionadas umas às outras e em comparação com as crenças dos gestores revelaram que há mais crenças convergentes do que divergentes. Os resultados também revelam que a professora pesquisada é muito motivada apesar de não ser visto assim por alguns dos gestores revelando uma relação não linear entre crença dos gestores e motivação da professora. Espera-se que este estudo possa contribuir para a reflexão e consequentemente para amenização dos problemas desafiadores que enfrentamos com o ensino de LI na escola pública.

Les dernières décennies ont témoigné d’un important accroissement de l’opération de cession de contrôle dans le monde des affaires. La cession de contrôle, qui a pour objet de changer le pouvoir décisionnel dans l’entreprise, est non seulement un mode de transmission de l’entreprise, mais est également un moyen de concentration économique. Cette identification de la nature de la cession du contrôle soulève plusieurs questions juridiques dans notre étude comparative de droit français et syrien. En effet, dans la mesure où elle est une décision personnelle de l’actionnaire ou de l’associé d’abandonner son contrôle sur l’entreprise au profit d’une autre personne, cela nous incite à déterminer le mécanisme juridique d’un tel type de contrat en mettant en lumière la question relative à la formation du contrat et les moyens de protection des parties de ses effets. Ce contrat de cession étant une décision personnelle, il est important d’identifier les problèmes de la protection des tiers (actionnaires minoritaires, salariés) lors de la décision, ces tiers n’ayant aucun pouvoir d’interdire une telle décision. De même, le changement de pouvoir décisionnel dans une entreprise peut avoir des répercussions négatives sur le jeu de la concurrence notamment par la création d’une concentration économique ou au moins d’une position dominante sur le marché. Le danger de cette opération sur le marché nous amène à identifier les mécanismes et les moyens qui sont mis en place par les pouvoirs publics français et syrien notamment sous la forme d’un contrôle antérieur et postérieur à la réalisation de la cession du contrôle. / In recent years there has been a significant increase in the transfer of corporation control in the business world. Transfer of control, which has the purpose of changing decision-making power within the company, is not only a procedure of company transfer, but it’s also a merger procedure. This identification of the nature of Transfer of control raises several legal issues in our comparative study of French and Syrian law. Indeed, insofar as it is a personal decision of the shareholder or partnership to relinquish control over the company for the benefit of another person, this leads us to determine the legal mechanism of such contracts, by highlighting those questions concerning the formation of the contract, and means of protecting the parties from its effects. As the transfer of control is a personal decision, it is important to identify the problems of protection of third parties from this decision (minority shareholders and employees) because they have no power to prevent such decisions from being taken. Similarly, the change in decision-making in a company can impact negatively on competition, notably through the creation of mergers or a dominant market position. The risk represented for the market by this type of transaction leads us to identify the mechanisms and means which have been put in place by the French and Syrian authorities, such as a prior and subsequent supervision of this transfer of control.

Aujourd’hui, il n’est pas rare qu’une personne se trouve en position de faiblesse lorsqu’elle contracte. Une entreprise en situation de dépendance économique, un consommateur face à un professionnel, l’utilisation de plus en plus fréquente de contrats d’adhésion, sont autant de facteurs pouvant conduire à la vulnérabilité d’un contractant. Le risque est alors que la partie dite « forte » abuse de sa position pour pousser l’autre à s’engager dans une convention fortement déséquilibrée, profitant essentiellement à l’auteur de l’abus. Ce type blâmable de comportement se manifestant lors de la formation des contrats, la partie lésée devrait pouvoir trouver une protection à travers la théorie des vices du consentement. Toutefois, cette théorie se révèle aujourd’hui inadaptée pour protéger efficacement les contractants victimes d’abus. Ce constat s’explique principalement par le fait qu’elle est restée inchangée depuis 1804. Basée sur une conception individualiste du contrat, les conditions d’admission propres à chaque vice, que sont l’erreur, la violence et le dol, sont trop restrictives. Or, les inégalités contractuelles étant à ce jour plus prononcées, elles entraînent nécessairement davantage d’abus, c’est pourquoi il convient de restaurer une telle théorie pour protéger comme il se doit les contractants. C’est à travers la notion de dol que nous proposons de le faire. Ce choix n’est pas le fruit du hasard. Il se justifie par le fait que le dol est un délit civil, avant même d’être un vice du consentement. Plus précisément, il est la manifestation de la déloyauté précontractuelle. Le consacrer comme un fait altérant la volonté engendre alors deux effets négatifs. Le premier tient au fait qu’il apparaît, en droit positif, comme une notion complexe, source de contradictions. Le second consiste à ne pouvoir réprimer la malhonnêteté perpétrée lors de la formation des contrats que de manière imparfaite et ce, en raison du champ d’application trop restreint du dol, celui-ci étant cantonné à une erreur provoquée. En lui redonnant sa véritable nature, celle de délit civil viciant le contrat, id est d’atteinte à la bonne foi précontractuelle, on remédierait à ces deux imperfections. / Professional, or the increasing use of adhesion contracts (“take it or leave it agreements”), all are factors that can lead to the contractor’s vulnerability. The risk is, for the so-called “strong” party, to abuse its position in order to force the other party into a strongly unbalanced agreement, mainly in its own benefit. Since such a reprehensible behavior occurs during the contract formation, the weakened party should be able to find protection through the use of the defects of consent theory. However, this theory has proven inadequate to effectively protect abused contractors today. A major explanation is due to the fact that this theory remains unchanged since 1804. Based on an individualistic conception of the contract, conditions of admission of each defects of consent, such as error, abuse and fraud, are too restrictive. However, the more contractual inequalities exist, the more they will turn into abuse. Therefore, this is why such a theory should be restored in order to protect contractors. It is through the notion of “dol” (willful misrepresentation or fraudulent concealment) that we propose to do so. This choice is not a coincidence. It is justified by the fact that “dol” is a tort, even before being a defect of consent. Specifically, it is the manifestation of pre-contractual disloyalty. Its recognition as a fact altering willpower will generate two negative effects. The first is linked to the fact that “dol” appears to be a complex notion and a source of contradiction in substantive law. The second is not permitting to properly penalize the dishonesty perpetrated during the contract formation due to a too narrow scope of the “dol”, the latter being understood as an induced error. Giving it back its real nature of a civil tort defecting the contract and undermining the pre-contractual good faith, our work aims at finding a remedy to these two shortcomings.

The Biden-Harris administration’s discussion of climate change is analyzed during the transformative time of the administration’s first hundred days in office. The theoretical framework of the Copenhagen School of Security Studies (CS) is used to develop the coding frame to perform a qualitative content analysis of empirical material consisting of speeches and other documents of the administration. Several securitization moves have been identified and climate change has been presented as a security issue and an existential threat by the Biden- Harris administration. A wide range of referent objects are identified, which is the people and things presented to be threatened by climate change. The whole world, ecosystems, the American people and future generations are a few of the identified referent objects. International and national solutions are presented, though the solutions are not interpreted as extreme measures as discussed by the CS. Therefore, this study supports the critique of a too narrow definition of securitization by the CS.
