Cet ouvrage prend pour objet les effets de la féminisation massive des activités équestres depuis l’après-guerre, tant au niveau statistique que du point de vue du contenu des pratiques. Le sous-titre choisi établit une certaine ambigüité sur la démarche adoptée : il pose la question d’une « avancée », c’est à dire d’un progrès que constituerait ou non la présence des femmes dans le domaine équestre. « Avancée » (mise ici en doute) pour qui?

BackgroundMedical ethics has recently seen a drive away from multiple prescriptive approaches, where physicians are inundated with guidelines and principles, towards alternative, less deontological perspectives. This represents a clear call for theory building that does not produce more guidelines. Phronesis (practical wisdom) offers an alternative approach for ethical decision-making based on an application of accumulated wisdom gained through previous practice dilemmas and decisions experienced by practitioners. Phronesis, as an ‘executive virtue’, offers a way to navigate the practice virtues for any (...) given case to reach a final decision on the way forward. However, very limited empirical data exist to support the theory of phronesis-based medical decision-making, and what does exist tends to focus on individual practitioners rather than practice-based communities of physicians.MethodsThe primary research question was: What does it mean to medical practitioners to make ethically wise decisions for patients and their communities? A three-year ethnographic study explored the practical wisdom of doctors (n = 131) and used their narratives to develop theoretical understanding of the concepts of ethical decision-making. Data collection included narrative interviews and observations with hospital doctors and General Practitioners at all stages in career progression. The analysis draws on neo-Aristotelian, MacIntyrean concepts of practice- based virtue ethics and was supported by an arts-based film production process.ResultsWe found that individually doctors conveyed many different practice virtues and those were consolidated into fifteen virtue continua that convey the participants’ ‘collective practical wisdom’, including the phronesis virtue. This study advances the existing theory and practice on phronesis as a decision-making approach due to the availability of these continua.ConclusionGiven the arguments that doctors feel professionally and personally vulnerable in the context of ethical decision-making, the continua in the form of a video series and app based moral debating resource can support before, during and after decision-making reflection. The potential implications are that these theoretical findings can be used by educators and practitioners as a non-prescriptive alternative to improve ethical decision-making, thereby addressing the call in the literature, and benefit patients and their communities, as well.

This study of the metaphysics of G. W. Leibniz gives a clear picture of his philosophical development within the general scheme of seventeenth-century natural philosophy. Catherine Wilson examines the shifts in Leibniz's thinking as he confronted the major philosophical problems of his era. Beginning with his interest in artificial languages and calculi for proof and discovery, the author proceeds to an examination of Leibniz's early theories of matter and motion, to the phenomenalistic turn in his theory of substance and (...) his subsequent de-emphasis of logical determinism, and finally to his doctrines of harmony and optimization. Specific attention is given to Leibniz's understanding of Descartes and his successors, Malebranche and Spinoza, and the English philosophers Newton, Cudworth, and Locke. Wilson analyzes Leibniz's complex response to the new mechanical philosophy, his discontent with the foundations on which it rested, and his return to the past to locate the resources for reconstructing it. She argues that the continuum-problem is the key to an understanding not only of Leibniz's monadology but also of his views on the substantiality of the self and the impossibility of external causal influence. A final chapter considers the problem of Leibniz-reception in the post-Kantian era, and the difficulty of coming to terms with a metaphysics that is not only philosophically "critical" but, at the same time, "compensatory.".

O artigo procura mostrar que sem uma comunidade civil democratizante de justificação, em lugar do atual sistema internacional, as normas da justiça global não passam de uma ficção, uma mera expressão do imperialismo cultural e político, um instrumento de controle e dominação dos povos em escala mundial, segundo um modelo colonizador ampliado que torna as declarações dos direitos humanos inoperantes. PALAVRAS-CHAVE – Direitos humanos. Ética. Habermas. Justiça global. Normas internacionais. Rawls. ABSTRACT The article seeks to show that without a civil, (...) democratizing community of justification, replacing the current international system, the norms of global justice remain a fiction, a mere expression of cultural and political imperialism, an instrument of control and domination of the peoples worldwide, according to an enlarged colonizing model which render the declarations of human rights inoperative. KEY WORDS – Ethics. Global justice. Habermas. Human rights. International norms. Rawls. (shrink)

Spinoza parle toujours de Maïmonide avec une extrême sévérité : sa propre certitude que la Bible ne contient aucune vérité d'ordre philosophique, mais seulement un contenu moral à destination des ignorants, se révèle incompatible avec l'œuvre d'un prédécesseur soucieux, au contraire, de montrer que, pour celui qui sait lire, la Bible a bel et bien un contenu philosophique. Pourtant, les questions de Maïmonide - à défaut de ses réponses - scandent l'œuvre théologico-politique de Spinoza. Ce livre cherche donc à dessiner (...) la ligne théorique complexe qui, à la fois, unit et sépare Spinoza et Maïmonide. Il explique pourquoi le premier dut tenir à l'écart le second, en durcissant et en simplifiant à l'extrême ses positions afin de mieux se démarquer de lui. Si Maïmonide fut, en effet, une source indéniable de réflexion pour Spinoza, ce dernier refusa toujours, sans la moindre concession, sa tentative de " sauver " la Bible aux yeux des philosophes. Les questions examinées ici sont partagées, de façon conflictuelle, par les deux philosophes : la lecture de la Bible, les idées de Dieu et de sa Providence, la prophétie et la différence entre loi divine et loi humaine, les régimes politiques qui permettent de vivre en paix et enfin le désir de salut. Malgré sa détermination à exclure Maïmonide de son propre chemin d'analyse des liens entre théologie et philosophie, pour cause d'inutilité et de danger, l'œuvre de Spinoza trouve un éclairage important dans sa confrontation à celle de Maïmonide anxieux, pour son compte, de répondre aux perplexes de son temps, déchirés entre une sagesse issue de la Bible et une sagesse issue de la philosophie grecque. L'histoire de cette tension entre les deux sagesses caractérise la culture occidentale, ce livre en explore un moment décisif. (shrink)

Catherine Lu | : Is the discrepancy between the cultural and linguistic rights of immigrants on the one hand and national groups on the other justified, with the latter group typically enjoying a fuller set of such rights than the former category? Patten presents a case for accepting some modest departures from neutrality in the treatment of immigrants’ cultural rights and that of majority and minority national groups. I challenge his thesis by asking whether such departures are justified with (...) respect to already settled immigrants; whether the situational argument for unequal treatment is inconsistent with the theory of culture offered earlier in the book; and whether contexts of historical injustice against immigrant groups might complicate judgements about the national minority/immigrant dichotomy with respect to minority cultural rights. | : L’opposition entre les droits culturels et linguistiques des immigrants, d’une part, et ceux des groupes nationaux, d’autre part, est-elle justifiée, considérant que ces derniers apprécient un ensemble plus complet de tels droits que ne le font les immigrants? Patten pose que de modestes écarts de neutralité seraient acceptables dans le traitement des droits culturels des immigrants et ceux de la majorité ainsi que ceux de groupes nationaux minoritaires. Je critique sa thèse en demandant si de tels écarts sont justifiés eu égard aux immigrants déjà installés ; si l’argument pour les traitements inégaux n’est pas incompatible avec la théorie de la culture offerte auparavant dans le livre; enfin si les contextes d’injustice historique contre les groupes d’immigrants ne compliquent pas les jugements sur la dichotomie entre minorité nationale et immigrants lorsqu’il s’agit des droits des minorités culturelles.

On applique ici la méthode de l’analyse de réseau pour comprendre les temporalités de la construction de l’imprimerie, comme activité économique associant des hommes de lettres et des acteurs économiques. À partir des informations contenues dans l’Incunabula Short Title Catalogue, deux types de réseaux sont construits pour les éditions imprimées à Venise entre 1469 et 1500. Le premier permet d’observer le vivier des noms d’auteurs présents dans les éditions. Le second permet d’aller plus loin dans les notions de centralité et (...) d’autorité dans le réseau. Les presses vénitiennes se sont construites par l’utilisation réciproque des ateliers et des grands noms lettrés, dont le prestige légitimait les grandes entreprises typographiques. Avec le développement de l’imprimerie, les noms d’auteurs contemporains se font plus nombreux. Pour l’ensemble des lettrés impliqués dans l’imprimerie, cela se traduit par un rapport de force en leur défaveur. Les imprimeurs organisent eux-mêmes leurs collaborations en choisissant dans un vivier qui ne fait que s’accroître. Le prestige des auteurs est plus diffus et se nourrit de l’association de plusieurs noms dans une édition. Mais certains ont su particulièrement bien en jouer, comme le montre l’exemple d’Antonio Mancinelli. Ces réseaux éditoriaux, analysés dans leur épaisseur chronologique, permettent ainsi de redonner une vraie dimension temporelle à la construction d’une nouvelle industrie culturelle. (shrink)

Dans son dernier ouvrage, Des Femmes en littérature, Martine Reid mène une enquête riche et passionnante, très bien théorisée et solidement documentée, sur la place des femmes écrivains dans l’histoire littéraire française et « dans la mémoire collective depuis des siècles » (p. 5). Si les exemples retenus couvrent surtout les auteures (le plus souvent leurs productions romanesques) du XVIIIe siècle au début du xxe siècle, la réflexion met en lumière non seulement la conception « résolument m...

Théologiens et philosophes chrétiens ont souvent minimisé, voire occulté, la dimension d'amour du judaïsme en l'assimilant à un pur légalisme. Cette thèse imprègne encore les mentalités modernes, fussent-elles déchristianisées. Ce livre n'est toutefois pas apologétique ; il se propose d'aborder la gravité de l'amour dans la philosophie et la spiritualité juives sans s'adapter au cadre théorique chrétien. Les penseurs juifs ont en effet profondément médité eux-mêmes la complexité théologique, spirituelle, morale et émotionnelle de l'amour. Le choix des questions abordées relève (...) de leur caractère impérieux face aux simplifications outrancières qui s'imposent de nos jours en matière de religion. La référence à des philosophes de périodes historiques différentes et à de grands commentateurs spirituels permet de poursuivre le dialogue avec eux et non de le clore. Il ne s'agit pas d'élaborer une thèse définitive sur l'amour de Dieu et du prochain dans le judaïsme, mais de se demander ce que sa gravité – son poids, son centre – signifie pour ceux qui désirent en témoigner.

Cet ouvrage, composé de huit chapitres et de neuf appendices (qui contiennent des précisions utiles sur la méthode proposée), présente une thèse originale et controversée selon laquelle une structure musicale sous-tend les dialogues platoniciens, et en permet une plus riche compréhension. J. B. Kennedy s'appuie sur deux dialogues, le Banquet et l'Euthyphron pour la démontrer. Avant d'introduire sa méthodologie, il prend soin de tracer l'origine de ce type d'interprétation pour en défendre la pertinence. (…) - 12. Plato 12 (2012).

Résumé L’usage du nombre par les élites constitue un mode de gestion systémique qui exploite le facteur de désintégration de chaque composante singulière. Son contre-modèle mathématique renvoie à la véritable concrétude géométrique développée par Alexandre Grothendieck. La victoire de l’homme moyen qui accompagne celle du techno-populisme, entraîne un manque de différenciation, une disparition des marges au profit de l’index des comportements sociaux visant à un équilibre, à une communication, à une sorte de pseudo-chuchotement où tout le monde serait d’accord par (...) simple utilisation de la moyenne statistique pour constituer l’idéal-type de l’homme contemporain qui résulte du fantasme de l’auto-organisation.

La promulgation de l'édit de Nantes, en 1598, a-t-elle connu aux Pays-Bas un écho comparable à celui provoqué par la Révocation de ce même édit, un siècle plus tard? Une première enquête menée à partir de documents directement liés aux événements de l'époque (correspondances d'hommes politiques, pamphlets, actes de synodes, etc.) ne livre aucun témoignage révélateur d'un intérêt néerlandais pour le règlement français du biconfessionnalisme Les hypothèses avancées dans cet article pour expliquer ce silence se fondent sur les déplacements des (...) enjeux politiques et théologiques de la tolérance entre la France et les Pays-Bas dans la période considérée.

Une longue introduction précède les contributions de ces trois philosophes et théologiens à la querelle sur la distinction entre l'être et l'essence qui anima la Faculté de théologie de l'Université de Paris dans les années 1280.

Selon certains philosophes, espérer serait au mieux une consolation, et il conviendrait de l’abandonner au profit d’une sérénité plus forte que les malheurs. Mais dénoncer la vanité de tout espoir est-il si sage? Comment comprendre que, même dans des situations terribles, l’espoir déserte rarement tout à fait le cœur humain? Pourquoi cette insistance de l’espoir à surprendre jusqu’aux partisans d’une lucidité qui le récuse? Espérer, c’est discerner au cœur du tragique et de la tentation du désespoir, ce qui peut nous (...) y soustraire. C’est aussi résister à la pensée que la nécessité régit ce qui advient. L’espoir n’est ni une compensation ni une consolation. Plus profondément, il espère une réparation du présent. Surtout, il atteste surtout une ouverture de la finitude humaine sur ce qui l’excède. Espérer, c’est s’avancer vers ce qu’on ne voit pas et ce qu’on ne prévoit pas mais qui, déjà, nous affecte. Dans le cadre biblique, l’espoir se fonde sur une promesse qui ne concerne pas uniquement l’avenir humain et le sens de l’histoire. Il ouvre une perspective eschatologique relative à un monde qu’aucun œil n’a vu. La question « as-tu espéré? » nous sera d’ailleurs posée après notre mort, selon le Talmud. Espérer apparaît alors comme une vertu des plus exigeantes. (shrink)

La spiritualité présente différents aspects selon les cultures et les individus. La vie spirituelle, composante de la vie psychique, est souvent étayée sur des constructions philosophiques et religieuses. Elle peut garder un lien plus ou moins serré avec la sensorialité et la motricité. Elle peut aussi être soutenue par une expérience affective vécue comme une issue du sacré. L'expérience du Sacré - car c'est avant tout une expérience - est le fruit d'un mouvement dynamique qui défait, pour un temps, l'organisation (...) topique habituelle. Ce mouvement apparaît comme une constante. Cette expérience, qui n'est pas réservée au domaine religieux, est le fait de certaines formes d'organisation mentale. L'hypothèse de Freud, qui, un an avant sa mort, faisait référence au Sacré en l'assimilant au domaine du Ça, trouve ici sa confirmation. Elle ouvre vers des interrogations sur la réorganisation, qui fait suite à ces expériences, chez certains êtres, hors du commun par la qualité de leurs sublimations. (shrink)

Students of Stoic philosophy, especially of Stoic ethics, have a lot to swallow. Virtues and emotions are bodies; virtue is the only good, and constitutes happiness, while vice is the only evil; emotions are judgements ; all sins are equal; and everyone bar the sage is mad, bad and dangerous to know. Non-Stoics in antiquity seem for the most part to find these doctrines as bizarre as we do. Their own philosophical or ideological perspectives, and the criticisms of the Stoa (...) to which these gave rise, are no less open to criticism than are the paradoxes and puzzles under attack – but they may be, often are, better documented, less provocatively attention-begging, or simply more familiar. Even disputes within the Stoa can be obscured or distorted by modern prejudices. Posidonius rejected Chrysippus' theory of a unitary soul, one rational through and through, on the grounds that such a theory could not satisfactorily account for the genesis of bad – excessive and irrational – emotions, the πάθη . Posidonius' own Platonising, tripartite soul feels more familiar to us because the Republic tends to be a set text rather more often than do the fragments of Chrysippus' de anima; and the balance in Plato's favour is unlikely to change. When Posidonius wrote, on the other hand, the Chrysippean soul was school orthodoxy, and Platonism the latest thing in radical chic. (shrink)

L’ouvrage de Marie Buscatto constitue une riche contribution à l’étude des rapports sociaux de sexe à l’intérieur du monde du travail et de l’art. Au travers d’une étude ethnographique de près de dix ans dans le milieu du jazz français, par des entretiens, des questionnaires et l’analyse de la presse spécialisée, l’auteur met en lumière la double ségrégation dont les artistes féminines (seulement 8% de la « population jazz ») font l’objet au sein de ce microcosme. Ségrégation de type horizont...

Species concepts aim to define the species category. Many of these rely on defining species in terms of natural lineages and groupings. A dominant gene-centred metaconception has shaped notions of what constitutes both a natural lineage and a natural grouping. I suggest that relying on this metaconception provides an incomplete understanding of what constitute natural lineages and groupings. If we take seriously the role of epigenetic, behavioural, cultural, and ecological inheritance systems, rather than exclusively genetic inheritance, a broader notion of (...) what constitutes a natural grouping or lineage may be required. I conclude by outlining an alternative metaconception that is a de-centred metaschema for species. (shrink)
