AbstractBased on the authors' practical experience as active members of an reb (Research Ethics Board) in a Canadian business school, this paper explores unintended consequences of the implementation of the tcps (Tri-Council Policy Statement – Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans) through rebs. rebs, and the conception of research ethics on which they are based, tend to 1) reduce research ethics to the issue of the relationship between researchers and the people under study, 2) reinforce the view that the people under study necessarily need to be protected from scientific research and researchers, 3) deepen the gap between research based on fieldwork and research based on databases, 4) jeopardize the possibility of collective learning and 5) accentuate the impunity felt by a number of researchers regarding the conduct of scientific research.

AbstractThe Acadians are descendants of French immigrants who settled mainly in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick during the xviith century. In 1755, the British authorities ordered the deportation of Acadians who were then dispersed in France, England and the English colonies of America. It is estimated that between 2 000 and 4 000 Acadians settled in Quebec. The purpose of this study was to measure and characterize the impact of Acadian migration on the contemporary Quebec gene pool. Data was obtained from a genealogical corpus consisting of 2 340 ascendances. Place of origin of founding ancestors, frequency of their mention in the genealogies and their genetic contribution to the various regional populations of Quebec were analysed. Results show that, depending on the region, 46 % to 100 % of ascendances contain at least one Acadian ancestor. The contribution of Acadian founders is particularly high in the Îles-de-la-Madeleine region, where 86 % of the gene pool is explained by Acadians. Gaspésie (27 %) and Côte-Nord (14 %) populations also display an important Acadian contribution.

AbstractThis article explores how identity and otherness function together within the ethnic consumption market in France, as far as commercial interactions are concerned. It is based on extensive fieldwork carried out in the Poitou-Charentes region with migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa. My objective is twofold: first, to emphasize the necessity of rejecting essentialist definitions of ethnicity. The second is to explore how African merchants work with ideas of otherness and reinterpret certain cultural meanings, according to the definition of the situation and ongoing social relations. From a comparative analysis of three situational areas (itinerant, African and festival markets), I will try to shed light on the variation of identity strategies I have observed, as well as the issues and constraints they involve.

This article is dedicated to circus dramaturgies in France and focuses on two recent shows, À dada!!! (2014) and Les Petits Bonnets (2019), created by Pascaline Herveet and the Cirque du Dr Paradi under a big top. We intend to study how the author, singer and director experiments the hybridization of circus with other arts (text, music, dance) in order to compose polymorphic and political acrobatic and circus fictions.

Pierre-Joseph Proudhon is still famous for his outcry, “Property is theft!” Yet, the “father of anarchism” does not promote its abolition. At the same epoch, Joseph Déjacque, another anarchist, harshly criticizes Proudhon for his refusal to abolish property and to move to libertarian communism. This paper analyzes the thoughts about property of these two authors, comparing them in order to identify the cause of their disagreement.

Studying the normative benchmarks of players involved in an episode of social crisis, such as the Overdale-Préfontaine squat in Montreal in 2001, can help us understand the meaning of an event that, because it was illegal, may have appeared somewhat opaque at the time it occurred. Through an analysis of these benchmarks, the internal logic of the strategies used by the groups of players involved in the squat can be identified, both within the group to which the players belong and with regard to the relationships between groups. In this paper, we present a summary of the results of our analysis of the positions taken by the squatters and by the community, institutional and media players involved.

Over the past ten years, Memory Studies has become a multidisciplinary field based primarily in the English-speaking world and in many European countries. This article aims to show how intermediality acts as a “field operator” allowing us to better trace the linkages currently constituting the area of Memory Studies. In its first part, the article explains how the use of the intermedial method enables us to distinguish Memory Studies from the studies of memory practiced in France. While Memory Studies uses intermedial theory to develop a decentralized approach to memory, focusing on dynamics of transfer and displacement, French studies of memory seem to privilege a media perspective related to a more static, patrimonial, and territorial approach. In its second part, the article considers different conceptions of intermediality currently at play in the field of Memory Studies. Despite numerous references to the work of Bolter and Grusin, Memory Studies seem to suffer from a lack of theorization about intermediality. Media thus occupy a paradoxical place within the field, since they are at the centre of the memory chessboard, but at the same time, they are relatively little analyzed as such.

AbstractThis article proposes to examine the retrospective life story of an Acadian who took part, during her youth, in the colonization effort in north-eastern New Brunswick at the turn of the 1930s. Although many sound recordings of personal narratives exist in Acadia, this autobiography has the characteristic of having been written down, the author having done so to create a tangible trace of her life for her family. Through a multidisciplinary approach, this text focuses on the values and social practices that marked the life of its author as well as its internal logic based on a particular number of transitional events that are organized according to a thematic timeline.
