Crise économique et travail féminin : retour à l'ordre : l'offensive contre le travail des femmes dans les services publics en Suisse et en France durant les années 1930

Résumé : Crise économique et travail féminin : retour à l'ordre. L'offensive contre le travail des femmes dans les services publics en Suisse et en France durant les années 1930 La crise économique mondiale des années 1930 se caractérise par une véritable offensive contre l'activité professionnelle féminine dans les services publics. Dans l'ensemble des pays industrialisés, le travail des femmes fonctionnaires acquiert le statut d'enjeu économique, politique, social, familial et moral. La généralisation du chômage sous l'effet de la crise économique suscite d'âpres discussions sur la répartition des postes de travail et les femmes fonctionnaires endossent le rôle de bouc émissaire. Les gouvernements et autorités publiques des pays industrialisés plébiscitent dès lors, selon des modalités diverses, la « solution » d'une réglementation restrictive du travail des salariées des services publics. Cette thèse met en lumière un épisode de l'histoire de la « ségrégation ordinaire » entre les sexes dans le monde du travail. Elle montre que la segmentation et la hiérarchisation sexuées du travail ne reflètent pas des faits « naturels », mais qu'elles constituent l'aboutissement d'un long processus de différenciation engageant une multitude d'acteurs·trices sociaux·ales. Nous avons opté pour une histoire croisée de l'offensive contre l'activité des salariées de la fonction publique en Suisse et en France, en y intégrant un « détour » par l'analyse de la dimension internationale de cette campagne contre l'emploi féminin. Cette approche permet de revisiter l'histoire politique, sociale, culturelle, économique et financière propre à la Suisse et à la France des années 1930. La sexuation de l'histoire, soit la prise en compte des rapports entre les sexes dans et par le récit historique, l'éclairage novateur de l'histoire d'une nation sur l'autre, ainsi que la prise en considération de l'internationalisation de certaines pratiques (législatives et féministes), permettent de renouveler un cadre d'analyse et de proposer de nouvelles pistes de recherche sur l'histoire du travail et des féminismes. En premier lieu, ce travail analyse les modalités de la reconfiguration des rapports entre les sexes durant les années 1930, sous le prisme de l'activité salariée. Il détermine de quelle manière le travail des femmes fonctionnaires se constitue en « problème » à cette période et quels sont les termes de l'offensive contre les salariées des services publics en Suisse et en France, mais également sur le plan international. En deuxième lieu, le coeur de la recherche porte sur les incidences de l'offensive contre les femmes fonctionnaires en Suisse et en France. Nous montrons de quelle manière les gouvernements et les autorités publiques prennent appui sur les impératifs d'austérité budgétaire pour redessiner des lignes de démarcation entre « travail masculin » et « travail féminin » dans certains domaines bien spécifiques des services publics. En troisième lieu, cette contribution propose une lecture de l'histoire de la mobilisation féministe pour défendre le droit au travail des femmes fonctionnaires, mobilisation encore trop souvent occultée par les récits historiques traditionnels. Pour les sources consultées, l'étude de la manière dont le travail des femmes fonctionnaires se constitue en « problème » sur le plan international (partie I) repose sur les archives et les publications du Bureau international du travail. Quant à l'étude des cas nationaux (parties II et III), pour chaque pays, trois types de sources ont été dépouillés : les archives des associations féministes investies dans la défense du droit au travail féminin ; les sources publiées ayant trait à l'offensive contre le travail féminin (rapports, actes de journées d'étude, organes de presse) ; les sources officielles législatives qui entérinent le processus de ségrégation sexuée dans les emplois publics.

The Gainers Strike: Capitalist Offensive, Militancy, and the Politics of Industrial Relations in Canada

The history of Alberta's meatpacking workers is closely connected with the broader historical struggles of the working class in North America. Like their counterparts from the packinghouses in Toronto and Montreal, the workers of Calgary and Edmonton organized and fought for union recognition between 1911 and 1920, thus joining a labour revolt that was spreading throughout Europe and North America in the wake of World War I and the October Revolution. They faced stiff resistance.

Offensive advertising, public policy, and the law: the rulings on the Zagorka case

This paper examines the case of a controversial beer advertisement which was promulgated in Bulgaria in 2001, and which provoked eight lawsuits against the brewery, its advertising agency, and the Bulgarian National Television. The case set a precedent in Bulgaria and generated considerable public interest and debate. To the best of the authors’ knowledge this is the first case in Eastern Europe when individuals have challenged companies in the courts of law because of offence caused by an advertisement. The present study discusses how the public bodies responsible for protecting consumer interests and the courts of first instance assessed the advertisement in the context of Bulgarian public policy regarding offensive advertising.

Effects of coaches' timeouts on basketball teams' offensive and defensive performances according to momentary differences in score and game period.

The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of game timeouts on basketball teams? offensive and defensive performances according to momentary differences in score and game period. The sample consisted of 144 timeouts registered during 18 basketball games randomly selected from the 2007 European Basketball Championship (Spain). For each timeout, five ball possessions were registered before (n?493) and after the timeout (n?475). The offensive and defensive efficiencies were registered across the first 35 min and last 5 min of games. A k-means cluster analysis classified the timeouts according to momentary score status as follows: losing ( ?10 to ?3 points), balanced ( ?2 to 3 points), and winning (4 to 10 points). Repeated-measures analysis of variance identified statistically significant main effects between pre and post timeout offensive and defensive values. Chi-square analysis of game period identified a higher percentage of timeouts called during the last 5 min of a game compared with the first 35 min (64.999.1% vs. 35.1910.3%; x ?5.4, PB0.05). Results showed higher post timeout offensive and defensive performances. No other effect or interaction was found for defensive performances. Offensive performances were better in the last 5 min of games, with the least differences when in balanced situations and greater differences when in winning situations. Results also showed one interaction between timeouts and momentary differences in score, with increased values when in losing and balanced situations but decreased values when in winning situations. Overall, the results suggest that coaches should examine offensive and defensive performances according to game period and differences in score when considering whether to call a timeout.

Offensive zones in beach volleyball: differences by gender

Gender differences in anthropometric and athletic properties (e.g. strength) as well as the different net heights (2.24 vs. 2.43 m) on the same field size (8x16 m) would be reflected in the game. The literature about differences between male and female playing characteristics in beach volleyball is scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the differences by gender in the use of offensive zones. Study participants were 20 players (10 female and 10 male) who took part in the European Beach Volleyball Championship 2005 and 2006. Video recordings were made of the 659 points in eight matches played. The beach volleyball court was divided into six zones (z1 to z6). The results showed that men and women use different offensive zones and also were different in the percentages of ball out (15.53 and 27.38% respectively). Concretely, men players used more 1, 2, 4 and 5 zones and women 1 and 5 zones. A few differences were observed in the percentage the ball to the net (7.73 and 5.35% respectively). An understanding of the use of offensive zones is relevant to establish specific tactical training patterns for beach volleyball.

Russia goes on the offensive ahead of the Eastern Partnership summit in Vilnius. OSW Commentary No. 115, 30.09.2013

In recent weeks, Russia has stepped up its efforts to prevent a group of former Soviet republics from tightening their relations with the European Union. The intensification of these efforts comes ahead of the upcoming Eastern Partnership summit, scheduled to take place in Vilnius on 28-29 November. It is expected that during the summit Kiev will sign the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement (AA) initialled in March 2012, including an agreement for a Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA). Meanwhile, Moldova, Armenia and Georgia are expected to initial similar documents, effectively accepting their terms and conditions, and paving the way for their official signing in the near future. Moscow has always viewed the relations between the EU and the post-Soviet states as a threat to its own influence in the region. Consequently, any attempts to tighten these relations have been actively opposed by Russia. The EU’s Eastern Partnership programme, launched in 2009, has posed a particular challenge to Moscow’s policies in the region.. Russia responded by rolling out a Eurasian integration project, which began in 2010 with the establishment of the Customs Union of Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, and is expected to culminate in the establishment of the Eurasian Economic Union by 2015. Moscow’s overarching objective has been to persuade the countries in the region, especially Ukraine, to adopt an unambiguously pro-Russian geopolitical stance and to join the integration project proposed by the Kremlin. The Russian government hopes that this would permanently place these states in Moscow’s sphere of influence and at the same time prevent them from developing closer relations with Brussels. Russia has regularly taken actions aimed at showcasing the benefits of integration with the Customs Union (particularly, by promising preferential pricing of Russian energy resources) and at the same time it has adopted measures highlighting the pitfalls of retaining a pro-European orientation (mainly by imposing occasional trade sanctions). The upcoming summit in Vilnius, during which Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia and Georgia could lock themselves on to a pro-European course, has spurred Moscow to intensify its efforts to torpedo a successful outcome of the Vilnius meeting, with a view to slowing down or even blocking the possibility of closer cooperation between the EU and the former Soviet republics.
