Cap a una escola secundària inclusiva: sabers i experiències de joves en situació d'exclusió

[cat] Aquest projecte revisa la narrativa al voltant del fracàs escolar a partir del desenvolupament de deu històries de joves - set nois i tres noies- de Catalunya en situació d'exclusió escolar. Dins d'aquest marc la recerca s'ha articulat a partir de tres eixos: (1) La realització d'un mapa dels estudis realitzats a Catalunya entorn l'anomenat fracàs escolar, amb la finalitat de situar i contextualitzar les seves narratives dominants. (2) La recerca entorn a les històries biogràfiques d'un grup de joves per explorar alternatives a l'actual crisi internacional de l'escola secundària que es reflecteix, entre d'altres fenòmens, en els elevats índexs d'abandonament d'aquesta etapa educativa per part dels estudiants. (3) La recerca conclou amb una sèrie de consideracions que pretenen contribuir a una narrativa a favor d¿una escola inclusiva per a l'educació secundària que tingui en compte les experiències i sabers d'aquests joves que, per diferents raons, no finalitzen la seva educació bàsica.

Cuando Frankenstein encontró a Dorian Gray: dandysmo, post-identidad y sujetos virtuales

The appearance and popularization of the internet has created new forms of writing, which compel us to think anew about identity and subjectivity. Webjournals or blogs are specially interesting because they are a massive phenomenon that use autobiographical writing in a peculiar way. These forms of writing stress a particular paradox of the genre: the coexistence between a purpose of private, confessional and spontaneous writing and a public image, carefully built, as a result of its writing. The technology is new, but, in fact, the paradox is old. This paper tries to explore this old paradox, our eternal condition of cyborgs, our use of technologies in order to construct a public, unique and recognizably identity. In oder to do so, I will try to show the virtual condition of any written individual ¿this issue has already been dealt with by autobiographical studies¿, focusing on blogs, and especially on concrete example (Lord Whimsy¿s Journal). I will pay attention to gender as a technology that constructs identity and, at the same time, is deconstructed by the autobiographical narratives analyzed. In short, I attempt to show that virtual and autobiographical discourse do not bring forth a new kind of subject but the permanence of an old phenomenon "clearly developed by dandyism, for instance¿: the use of tehnologies to re-invent, re-formulate and re-construct us as multiple, hybrid and mixed subjects."

Embodying feminist research: learning from action research, political practices, diffractions and collective knowledge.

In the past three decades, feminists and critical theorists have discussed and argued the importance of deconstructing and problematizing social science research methodology in order to question normalized hierarchies concerning the production of knowledge and the status of truth claims. Nevertheless, often, these ideas have basically remained theoretical propositions not embodied in research practices. In fact there is very little published discussion about the difficulties and limits of their practical application. In this paper we introduce some interconnected reflections starting from two different but related experiences of embodying 'feminist activist research'. Our aim is to emphasise the importance of attending to process, making mistakes and learning during fieldwork, as well as experimenting with personalized forms of analysis, such as the construction of narratives and the story-telling process.

Genèse de la recherche académique nord-américaine sur les expériences de mort imminente. L'exemple des recherches menées par Russel Noyes, psychiatre, de 1967 à 1977

La présente thèse analyse les facteurs expliquant l'attrait académique pour la Near-Death Experience (NDE) aux Etats-Unis. À travers l'étude d'un acteur clé, Russell Noyés, la thèse démontre que l'expérience de mort imminente est devenue pertinente grâce aux psychiatres et aux psychologues qui lui ont octroyé une qualité clinique et thérapeutique. Afin de reconstruire les fondements académiques de l'intérêt pour l'étude de la mort, de l'expérience de la mort et de la mort imminente en psychiatrie dans les années 1960-70, la méthode employée est celle d'une enquête historique qui combine une approche empirique avec une génétique de récit. - The dissertation analyses the factors explaining the emergence of the Near- Death Experience (NDE) as a research topic in the disciplines of psychology and psychiatry in the United States. The study of a key actor, Russell Noyes, will demonstrate how the experience of near-death became relevant through the work of psychiatrists and psychologists who attributed a clinical and therapeutical quality to it. In order to retrace the academic foundations of the research on death, the experience of dying and near-death, during the 60s and 70s, this dissertation applies a historical method, which combines an empirical approach with a genetic of narratives.

C'est la plume qui fait le conte : "Die sechs Schwäne" des frères Grimm et "De vilde Svaner" de Hans Christian Andersen

Dans De vilde Svaner (Les cygnes sauvages), conte des Eventyr, fortalte for Børn (Contes, racontés aux enfants), H. C. Andersen raconte une histoire très proche de celle de Die sechs Schwäne (Les six cygnes), des Kinder- und Hausmärchen (Contes de l'enfance et du foyer) des Grimm. On peut fort justement se demander si l'auteur danois ne réécrit pas le Märchen de 1812 lorsqu'il publie son eventyr, en 1838. Mais l'étude de plusieurs récits d'enfants transformés en cygnes - de l'histoire du septième sage du Dolopathos de Jean de Haute-Seille, à la fin du xiie siècle, et Die sieben Schwäne, un Feen-Märchen de 1801, à De elleve Svaner de Winther, en 1823 - montre qu'Andersen réécrit vraisemblablement ce dernier texte danois et que le dialogue intertextuel avec les Grimm s'effectue sur un autre mode. L'auteur des Eventyr, fortalte for Børn se positionne par rapport aux Kinder- und Hausmärchen, développant ainsi une nouvelle conception du genre qui ressort de la comparaison des manières de raconter propres à chaque auteur, leur plume. It is the pen which makes the tale. the Grimm brothers' Die sechs Schwäne and Christian Andersen's De vilde Svaner In De vilde Svaner, a tale from Eventyr, fortale for Børn, H. C. Andersen tells a story that is very close to that of Die sechs Schwäne from the Grimms' Kinder- und Hausmärchen. One could legitimately wonder whether the Danish author was inspired by the 1812 Märchen when he published his own eventyr in 1838. The study of other narratives about children transformed into swans (including the story of the seventh wise man in Jean de Haute-Seille's Dolopathos at the end of the twelth century; Die sieben Schwäne, a Feen-Märchen from 1801; and Winther's 1823 De elleve Svaner) shows that Andersen rewrote this last Danish text and that the intertextual dialogue with the Grimms takes place at another level. Andersen distinguishes himself from the Grimms by developing a new conception of the genre, which becomes clear in his very different way of telling a tale.

Les médiations de l'immédiateté : l'individualisme communautaire des assemblées pentecôtistes

Lorsqu'il est amené à témoigner de sa conversion, le membre d'une assemblée pentecôtiste insiste avant tout sur la dimension personnelle de son choix de vie et sur les manifestations divines qui l'ont encouragées et qui l'encouragent encore chaque jour dans cette voie. Avoir fait l'expérience personnelle de l'agir divin est un élément constitutif de tout récit de conversion. Cet article, basée sur des recherches doctorales menées auprès de deux assemblées pentecôtistes de l'Est de la France, cherche à mettre en évidence que cette relation personnelle et intime entre le fidèle et son créateur se construit dans le cadre communautaire : à travers l'harmonisation des récits de conversion et la structuration des réunions de prières assurant par les manifestations charismatiques la mise en présence de l'Esprit Saint au sein de la communauté des fidèles. C'est en effet sur une validation communautaire que reposent en partie les convictions individuelles. When he has to testify of his conversion, the member of a Pentecostal assembly insists above all on the personal dimension of his choice of life and on the divine intervention which has encouraged him and which will encourage him in his everyday life in this way. The personal experience of God's action is a constituent element of any narrative of conversion. This article, based on my PhD researches carried on with two Pentecostal assemblies located in the east of France, tries to highlight that this personal and intimate relation between the believer and his creator is built in the community framework : harmonization of the narratives of conversion, structuralization of the meetings of prayers and charismatic interventions of the Holy Spirit within the community of the believers. Individual convictions are partly based and validated by the community.
