Le savoir des religions. Fragments d’historiographie religieuse

L’histoire des religions ne saurait se passer d’une réflexion préalable sur ses propres conditions d’élaboration. Qu’est-ce qu’un « savoir religieux », qu’est-ce qu’un savoir « sur le religieux », en quoi et comment se distinguent-ils l’un de l’autre ? Ce livre est issu d’une série de recherches et d’enquêtes portant sur des horizons historiques et culturels contrastés. Il montre comment un scribe mésopotamien, un philosophe grec, un clerc bouddhiste, un égyptologue contemporain, un historien des religions, etc, élaborent leurs savoirs, comment ces savoirs se transforment et se perpétuent, quelles fonctions ils remplissent, qui les met en oeuvre, où et comment ils s’enracinent, pourquoi ils meurent.

Une lecture postmoderne : Volkswagen Blues de Jacques Poulin

Este artículo muestra cómo la búsqueda identitaria quebequense, se vuelve problemática, cuando compite con una mayoría anglófona. El punto nodal de este dilema ¿cómo se resuelve? ¿La evasión, la errancia, la deambulación, son salidas posibles? La tesis central: los actantes de Volkswagen Blues de Jacques Poulin, sufren un traumatismo monomaníaco: reconstruir una pertenencia por el sesgo de lo fragmentario, del indicio, de los signos, de los recuerdos. Esta obra es la eterna y circular peregrinación de todo ser excluido, exiliado, migrante o minoritario, en búsqueda de una especificidad totalizante y benéfica. Por otro lado, en lo que concierne al aspecto formal, el intertexto, a modo de fábulas encastradas unas en otras, o como fragmentos metadiegéticos, nos conduce a una lectura invertida, no canónica.

República Federativa Evangélica: uma análise de gênero sobre a laicidade no Brasil a partir da atuação dos/as parlamentares evangélicos/as no Congresso Nacional no exercício da 54ª Legislatura São Bernardo do Campo

Essa pesquisa objetiva a análise da relação entre religião e política, em perspectiva de gênero considerando a atuação de parlamentares evangélicos/as na 54ª Legislatura (de 2011 a 2014) e a forma de intervenção desses atores no espaço político brasileiro quanto à promulgação de leis e ao desenvolvimento de políticas públicas que contemplem, dentre outras, a regulamentação do aborto, a criminalização da homofobia, a união estável entre pessoas do mesmo sexo e os desafios oriundos dessa posição para o Estado Brasileiro que se posiciona como laico. Ora, se laico remete à ideia de neutralidade estatal em matéria religiosa, legislar legitimado por determinados princípios fundamentados em doutrinas religiosas, pode sugerir a supressão da liberdade e da igualdade, o não reconhecimento da diversidade e da pluralidade e a ausência de limites entre os interesses públicos / coletivos e privados / particulares. Os procedimentos metodológicos para o desenvolvimento dessa pesquisa fundamentam-se na análise e interpretação bibliográfica visando estabelecer a relação entre religião e política, a conceituação, qualificação e tipificação do fenômeno da laicidade; levantamento documental; análise dos discursos de parlamentares evangélicos/as divulgados pela mídia, proferidos no plenário e adotados para embasar projetos de leis; pesquisa qualitativa com a realização de entrevistas e observações das posturas públicas adotadas pelos/as parlamentares integrantes da Frente Parlamentar Evangélica - FPE. Porquanto, os postulados das Ciências da Religião devidamente correlacionados com a interpretação do conjunto de dados obtidos no campo de pesquisa podem identificar o lugar do religioso na sociedade de forma interativa com as interfaces da laicidade visando aprofundar a compreensão sobre a democracia, sobre o lugar da religião nas sociedades contemporâneas e sobre os direitos difusos, coletivos e individuais das pessoas.

Materiales y metodologías docentes en el EEES: informe general de primer curso de la titulación de Telecomunicación

La red docente durante el curso 2006/07 ha realizado un estudio en cuanto a materiales y metodologías docentes en las asignaturas de primer curso de Ingeniería Técnica de Telecomunicación, especialidad en Sonido e Imagen. Esta titulación es impartida en la Escuela Politécnica Superior de la Universidad de Alicante. Dicho estudio está encaminado a suplir las necesidades que marca el nuevo Marco Europeo de Aprendizaje.

Flexible Framework for Real-Time Embedded Systems Based on Mobile Cloud Computing Paradigm

The development of applications as well as the services for mobile systems faces a varied range of devices with very heterogeneous capabilities whose response times are difficult to predict. The research described in this work aims to respond to this issue by developing a computational model that formalizes the problem and that defines adjusting computing methods. The described proposal combines imprecise computing strategies with cloud computing paradigms in order to provide flexible implementation frameworks for embedded or mobile devices. As a result, the imprecise computation scheduling method on the workload of the embedded system is the solution to move computing to the cloud according to the priority and response time of the tasks to be executed and hereby be able to meet productivity and quality of desired services. A technique to estimate network delays and to schedule more accurately tasks is illustrated in this paper. An application example in which this technique is experimented in running contexts with heterogeneous work loading for checking the validity of the proposed model is described.

A Computational Model of the Belief System Under the Scope of Social Communication

This paper presents an approach to the belief system based on a computational framework in three levels: first, the logic level with the definition of binary local rules, second, the arithmetic level with the definition of recursive functions and finally the behavioural level with the definition of a recursive construction pattern. Social communication is achieved when different beliefs are expressed, modified, propagated and shared through social nets. This approach is useful to mimic the belief system because the defined functions provide different ways to process the same incoming information as well as a means to propagate it. Our model also provides a means to cross different beliefs so, any incoming information can be processed many times by the same or different functions as it occurs is social nets.

Information Search Habits of First Year College Students

New technologies have transformed teaching processes and enabled new ways of study and learning. In these activities, it is suspected that the students don't make good use of new available technologies or, in the best case, they are underused. The analysis of this issue with the design of strategies to correct any defects found is the motivation that supports the development of this work and the main purpose of it. Evaluate information search habits used by the student and analyse their deduct synthesis and processing capabilities of the results found. The researchers of this study are university teachers of first year subjects, which allows them to know the information search performances by students.

A Belief System's Organization Based on a Computational Model of the Dynamic Context: First Approximation

In this article we present a model of organization of a belief system based on a set of binary recursive functions that characterize the dynamic context that modifies the beliefs. The initial beliefs are modeled by a set of two-bit words that grow, update, and generate other beliefs as the different experiences of the dynamic context appear. Reason is presented as an emergent effect of the experience on the beliefs. The system presents a layered structure that allows a functional organization of the belief system. Our approach seems suitable to model different ways of thinking and to apply to different realistic scenarios such as ideologies.

Management of social networks in the educational process

The research developed in this work consists in proposing a set of techniques for management of social networks and their integration into the educational process. The proposals made are based on assumptions that have been proven with simple examples in a real scenario of university teaching. The results show that social networks have more capacity to spread information than educational web platforms. Moreover, educational social networks are developed in a context of freedom of expression intrinsically linked to Internet freedom. In that context, users can write opinions or comments which are not liked by the staff of schools. However, this feature can be exploited to enrich the educational process and improve the quality of their achievement. The network has covered needs and created new ones. So, the figure of the Community Manager is proposed as agent in educational context for monitoring network and aims to channel the opinions and to provide a rapid response to an academic problem.
