In this paper, we test a version of the conditional CAPM with respect to a local market portfolio, proxied by the Brazilian stock index during the 1976-1992 period. We also test a conditional APT model by using the difference between the 30-day rate (Cdb) and the overnight rate as a second factor in addition to the market portfolio in order to capture the large inflation risk present during this period. The conditional CAPM and APT models are estimated by the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) and tested on a set of size portfolios created from a total of 25 securities exchanged on the Brazilian markets. The inclusion of this second factor proves to be crucial for the appropriate pricing of the portfolios.

Dans ses entretiens, George Steiner considère la musique rock et le heavy metal comme l’espéranto international des jeunes de notre époque (Steiner, Entretiens, p. 91). Or, cet espéranto porte une dimension religieuse manifeste, entre autres à travers l’usage fréquent d’images et de textes bibliques souvent passés au broyeur des guitares et des voix vociférantes. On peut se demander quelles figures construisent les fragments qui en résultent, souvent irrévérencieux voire scandaleux pour plusieurs. À travers les violences que le rock et surtout le métal infligent au texte biblique, faut-il voir des attaques contre la Bible et contre Dieu, comme le croient plusieurs chrétiens, ou, au contraire, un respect profond de la dynamique de ce texte et un usage légitime de celui-ci ? Davantage portée par la seconde hypothèse, ce texte vise à identifier les usages et les fonctions religieuses de la Bible dans la musique rock.

The Brazilian Amazon is one of the world’s largest tropical forests. It supplies more than 80 % of Brazil’s timber production and makes this nation the second largest producer of tropical wood. The forestry sector is of major importance in terms of economic production and employment creation. However, the Brazilian Amazon is also known for its high deforestation rate and for its rather unsustainably managed timber resources, a fact which puts in the balance the long-term future of the forestry sector in the region. Since the mid- 1990s, with strong support from World Wildlife Fund (WWF), the number of tropical forests certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) has significantly increased. This is especially true for projects sponsored by large scale companies. The number of community- based forest management projects has also increased. Certification of community-based forest enterprises (CFEs) was initially a goal for the sponsors and community members. Certification is viewed as a way to reach alternative timber markets. In Brazil, the state of Acre has the highest concentration of CFEs certified by FSC. Most of them have been implemented with the support of environmental NGOs and public funds. Environmental NGOs strongly defend the advantages of certification for communities; however, in reality, this option is not that advantageous. Despite all the efforts, the number of participants in each project remains low. Why is this occurring? In this paper, we analyze the underlying motives of a few individual’s participation in CFEs certification projects. We aim to present and discuss some factors that shape the success of CFEs and their later certification. The results are based on surveys conducted in two certified CFEs in the state of Acre.

Brooklyn est depuis quelques années un épicentre de la musique indépendante aux États-Unis. En utilisant la démarche ethnographique, l’auteur s’intéresse au rôle des médiateurs dans la définition du réseau socio-musical de la scène « indie » de Brooklyn à New York.

En utilisant la démarche ethnographique, l’auteur s’intéresse au rôle des médiateurs dans la définition du réseau socio-musical de la scène « indie » de Brooklyn à New York. Il met en relief la façon dont historiquement, le quartier brooklynois de Williamsburg est devenu un lieu important d’établissement des musiciens alternatifs. Il aborde la façon dont les hipsters, comme communauté, font appel à différentes pratiques pour contourner le rapport d’infériorité avec les étiquettes majors. Il s’intéresse aussi au « do it yourself » ainsi qu’au rôle de New York dans le milieu musical mondial. Finalement, il s’intéresse aux médias qui définissent et structurent le milieu de la musique indépendante de Brooklyn.
