Used as a litmus test for Luke's historical reliability, the Apostolic Decree of Ac 15,23-29 contains four prohibitions directed at Gentile Christians. Although normally considered to be the raison d'être of the apostolic conference, the dispute about table fellowship between Jews and Gentiles at Antioch (Ga 2) postdates the decree and in fact describes a dispute about the decree's meaning (Böttrich). In a world where ritual, politics and ethics are inextricably linked, prohibiting Christians from participating in pagan temple activities will avoid any appearance of support for the values and oppressive structures of the Roman meritocracy. Acts 15 offers an example of how Christians should resolve (ethnic) disputes which contrasts symbolically with the militaristic politics of Rome. While Luke may be fudging historical details, the distance he establishes between imperial politics and Christian egalitarian and pacifist values is clear. On this central issue, he and Paul speak with one voice.

The international policy of Quebec under the leadership of Premier Jean Charest (2003-2012) represents a paradox. It is under the direction of a resolute federalist that the government of Quebec reached a new level of dynamism on the international scene. In addition, despite a general context of austerity, the Quebec government has even increased its investments in international issues under its administration. This article seeks to understand why. The methodology is based on semi-structured interviews with senior officials, members of political cabinets and the former prime minister himself. Our hypothesis is that it is the leadership of the Prime Minister that is the main factor.

The arrival of Uber has led to a minor revolution owing to its innovative concept of taxi services. The new concept was made possible by a digital application (the platform) that can pair drivers with passengers. Uber's arrival could have been beneficial to the entire industry, but it took place, in Quebec, with no regard for the longstanding players and, above all, for the regulations then in force, which were, thereby, weakened and, then, demolished. The industry was finally deregulated.This research is based on a longitudinal case study of the transformation of Quebec's taxi industry following Uber's arrival. It looks more specifically at the role of the state and the platform in public policy-making. Our main takeaway: the Uber platform gained importance and assumed a distinctive role in development of these public policies as it became a “regulatory entrepreneur.” Through analysis of the disruptions leading to deregulation, it is possible to assess the government's regulatory responses during those transformations, the processes and criteria that guided the development of new rules and the leading actors. To study this “regulatory factory” (Guy Rocher) and the platform's special role in that process, we rely on an analytical grid that brings together innovation and the public good into our understanding of public policy-making in a digital economy context.
