Il desiderio materno nei casi di maltrattamento infantile

The work of this thesis would like to investigate two particular questions about the care of underage: on the one hand, the maltreatment, and the mother's desire on the other hand. About the first, this proposal try to underscore the elaborate irregularity and disparity related to this phenomenon and his historical evolution. The objective's thesis propose to underline that the abuse crosses the crisis of educational dimension inside and outside the family. We are talking about a type of crisi that places at the origin of a specific clinic and that it is about the maltreatment designated, at the same time, to cope with the educational void and with the ill-treated under age's hardships. The so-called clinic of the maltreatment horns, therefore, with the purpose to join and to set in order the normative and educational aspects. However, the prescriptive requirement is intended to measure against the same one crisis in a paradoxical way; the laws and the juveniles court must make up for the lack absence of the rules that characterized the maltreatment, getting around to use the typical reference that traditionally were been at the base of the educational way's construction. The same crimes on underage often found in the father the responsibility. The requirements and the therapeutic needs has utilized the theoretical construct of the trauma as the key line of clinical practice. On the one hand, the trauma was been paired controversially to the psychoanalytical concepts as the notion of the phantom, in the same manner that the objective truth is been opposed to the notion of the imagination and fantasy; on the other hand, the trauma was gotten to be the mark and the characteristic that defined the individual identity of the mistreated persons, regardless of the person's clinical structure or, generally, regardless of the their individual position. Both the normative demand and therapeutic converge on the idealization of the imaginary figure that is able to supply to every type of maltreatment: the mother. This position is connected on theoretical construct well-established in the mythology, that associated the mother figure to a natural dimension; this is related to the second point at issue: the mother's desire. The awareness of the mother figure in natural and idealized terms describes accusingly and negatively the trauma, without seeing the difference between trauma that helps to give a structure to the individual position from the trauma solely devastating. The mother's mythology, therefore, is in an evident antagonism with the female figure and woman's sexuality. In these way the maltreatment's clinic suggests that a woman is able to be a mother only when she doesn't appreciate the rule of female. This situation preclusives a comparison with own sexuality and gives to the women a complex of castration. The clinic cases reported highlight as these difficulties are the expression of the familiarity's heredity that wasn't been sufficiently elaborated. This condition (into the relation between mother and his child) turn the infant in the incapacity to symbolized and it doesn't help him to accede to the positive trauma, to the language and to the edipic rule; this is the reason why the child toils difficulties to approach to own personality and to orient himself in the relation with his body, with the body of the adults and the same age children.

Gare aux hybrides : mythes et réalités de la gouvernance de la mondialisation

Hybrid is often used as a default attribute reflecting lack of clear understanding of the influence of new patterns and actors of structural change beyond states, firms and institutions traditionally involved in regulatory practices across nations. The article argues that the notion of hybrid has a distinct relevance for engaging shortcomings of global governance literature. It explores the lessons to be drawn from ancient mythology by highlighting that ontological ambiguity and emotional ambivalence represent core features of hybrid creatures. It then builds upon critical scholarship in global political economy to conceptualise three generic levels of transfers of authority at which situating the hybrid dimension of governance in contemporary capitalism. Following this approach, the concept of hybrid explicates the ambiguity between formal and informal transfers of authority, which in turn provides an insight into the contested nature of the procedures used to reinforce this type of governance practices.

Hybrids and Regulation in the Global Political Economy

While regulation theory literature has made important contributions to the much-debated domain of globalisation by focusing on various aspects of post-Fordism, it has not yet fully engaged with the implications that can be drawn from critical approaches in international political economy. Recent studies have explored the transnational bases of new patterns and agents of change beyond states, firms and institutions traditionally involved in regulatory practices. Hybrid is often used as a default attribute reflecting lack of clear understanding of the breadth of this new type of influence and the opacity of the means involved. Drawing on the insights of philology and mythology, the paper argues that the notion of hybrid is relevant in elucidating the ontological ambiguity between imaginary and real aspects of globalisation. Furthermore, it specifies the categories involved in the analysis of emerging forms of hybrid regulation. Recent scholarship on globalisation tends to focus on the private-public nexus of the subjects involved in new forms of institutional arrangements and authority. Here, subjects, objects and space are analysed as joint issues. By focusing particularly on transformations affecting the role of the state, forms of competition, and their rescaling on a transnational basis, the concept of global hybrid is seen as complementary to the emancipation of regulation approaches from early emphasis on national levels of compromises.

Etude systématique, cladistique et biogéographique des Baetidae (Ephemeroptera) de Madagascar

Les Ephéméroptères constituent un ordre très archaïque d?insectes ailés, comprenant un nombre réduit d?espèces (actuellement environ 2500 espèces). Les larves sont aquatiques; la durée de ce stade est en général d?une année. Le stade adulte est par contre extrêmement bref: de quelques heures à quelques jours. La fonction quasi unique de ce stade est la reproduction. Par sa superficie, Madagascar est la quatrième île du monde. Elle est située dans la partie occidentale de l?Océan Indien à plus de 300 km de la côte africaine. Madagascar faisait partie du super-continent Gondwana. Elle s?est séparée de l?Afrique (-165 M.a.), puis a migré vers le Sud (-125 M.a.) avant de se détacher du sous-continent indien (-65 M.a.). La connaissance des Ephéméroptères malgaches était, jusqu?à très récemment, extrêmement limitée. Grâce au programme Biodiversité et biotypologie des eaux continentales malgaches, lancé conjointement par l?ORSTOM (actuel IRD, France) et le CNRE (Madagascar), un inventaire à large échelle de la macrofaune benthique malgache a été entrepris. La systématique de plusieurs familles d?Ephéméroptères (Tricorythidae, Polymitarcyidae, Palingeniidae,?), ainsi que d?autres groupes d?invertébrés (Trichoptères, Simuliidae, macrocrustacés) a fait l?objet d?études approfondies. La présente étude consistue un des volets de ce programme. Jusqu?au milieu des années 1990, seules quatre espèces valides appartenant à trois genres différents étaient décrites de Madagascar. En 6 ans, ce ne sont pas moins de 25 articles qui sont consacrés à la systématique des Baetidae, permettant de décrire 50 espèces et 8 genres nouveaux. La faune malgache des Baetidae compte actuellement 22 genres et 54 espèces. Malgré sa taille, Madagascar possède une richesse, tant générique que spécifique équivalente à celle d?un continent. Notre connaissance des Baetidae est suffisamment avancée pour mener une étude cladistique et biogéographique. La reconstruction phylogénétique a permis de mettre en évidence cinq lignées principales à Madagascar et de préciser, pour chacune d?elles, les genres inclus et les caractères propres. La faune des Baetidae malgaches présente un taux d?endémicité très élevé: 53 des 54 espèces et un tiers des genres sont endémiques. Elle montre des affinités extrêmement fortes avec la faune africaine, puisque 90% des genres présents à Madagascar ou en Afrique ont une répartition strictement restreinte à cette région. Les autres composantes, notamment orientales et océaniennes, sont négligeables; ces régions n?ont en commun avec Madagascar qu?un nombre restreint de genres cosmopolites. Ces affinités sont en contradiction avec les données géologiques de la dislocation du Gondwana. Plusieurs explications peuvent être données pour résoudre cette contradiction. La plus vraisemblable est que le pouvoir de dispersion des Ephéméroptères, et des Baetidae en particulier, est nettement sous-estimé. L?étude des faunes des îles volcaniques récentes, telles que les Comores, démontre clairement que les Baetidae sont capables de dispersion sur une distance de plus de 300 km. Il est donc possible d?envisager une colonisation de Madagascar à partir de l?Afrique continentale postérieure à la séparation des deux plaques. Nous avons établi des scénarios retraçant l?histoire biogéographique de chacune des cinq lignées. Pour quatre d?entre elles, l?Afrique continentale est le centre d?origine. La cinquième lignée aurait une origine paléarctique; l?Afrique représenterait un centre secondaire de spéciation. Ces lignées auraient secondairement colonisé Madagascar à partir de l?Afrique continentale. Ce travail ouvre donc d?importantes perspectives. Il rend possible l?utilisation à un niveau générique, voire spécifique, des Baetidae pour des travaux de faunistique ou d?écologie, en particulier pour des études liées à la dégradation de la qualité de l?eau. Il devrait également pouvoir servir de base pour l?étude et la compréhension des phénomènes de dispersion et colonisation dans les îles et archipels de l?Ouest de l?Océan Indien.<br/><br/>Mayflies (Ephemeroptera) are among the oldest known flying insects and encompass a very small number of species (ca 2500 species). Larvae are strictly freshwater inhabitants; this stage lasts generally one year. The imaginal stage is extremely short, from few hours to few days, and is devoted almost entirely to reproduction. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world by area. It is situated in the western part of the Indian Ocean, at a distance of more than 300 km from the African coast. Madagascar belonged to Gondwana. It was first separated from the African plate (-165 M.y.), then moved to the South (-65 M.y.), before the break-off with the Indian plate (-65 M.y.). Knowledge of the Malagasy mayflies was until recently extremely poor. The program Biodiversity and Biotypology of Malagasy Freshwaters, jointly run by the French ORSTOM and the Malagasy CNRE, began a global survey of the freshwater macroinvertebrates. The systematics of several mayfly families (Tricorythidae, Polymitarcyidae, Palingeniidae,?), and other invertebrate groups (Caddisflies, Blackflies,?) was the subject of ground studies. Our present study is one part of this global program. Until the middle of the nineties, only four baetid species belonging to three different genera had been described from Madagascar. During the last six years, 25 papers were dedicated to the systematics of the Baetidae, allowing the description of 50 new species and 8 new genera. The Malagasy fauna encompasses now 22 genera and 54 species. Despite its size, Madagascar has the same diversity, at specific and generic level, as a continent. Our knowledge of the Baetidae is sufficient to perform a cladistic and biogeographical study. Our phylogenetic reconstruction allows us to propose five main lineages and to indicate, for each of them, the genera included and their features. The Malagasy fauna of Baetidae possesses a high level of endemicity: 53 of the 54 species and one third of the genera are endemic. It shows extremely strong affinities with the African fauna, as more than 90% of the genera present in Madagascar or in Africa have a distribution restricted to this area. Other components, especially Oriental and Oceanian, are negligible. These areas share with Madagascar only a few widespread genera. These African affinities are in contradiction with the geological events, especially the break-off history of Gondwana. Some explanations can be given to solve this contradiction. The most likely is that the dispersal power of the mayflies, especially of the Baetidae, is greatly underestimated. The study of recent volcanic islands, particularly of the Comoros, clearly demonstrates that the Baetidae are able to disperse over more than 300 km. Consequently, a colonisation by the Baetidae, of Madagascar from the continental Africa, after the break-off must be considered as possible. We have established scenarios explaining the biogeographical history of each of the five lineages. For four of them, Africa has to be regarded as the centre of origin. The fifth lineage probably has a Palearctic origin; Africa should be considered as a secondary centre of speciation. These lineages should have secondarily colonised Madagascar from continental Africa. This work opens up new perspectives. It allows the use of the Baetidae for faunistic and ecological studies, especially for problems related to water quality. It must be also considered as a first step for understanding the dispersion and colonisation of the islands of the western part of the Indian Ocean.
