This longitudinal study illustrates the evolution of the Montreal Economic Institute's behaviour about global warming since its foundation in 1999. Supported by a three-pronged approach, the results obtained show that this organization is integrated into the Canadian hydrocarbon industry coalition and that it has changed its public behaviour from the negation of the anthropogenic global warming to a posture of systematic resistance to climate policies over two decades.

The aim of this article is to explore the close interconnections between conversions to Pentecostalism in Kabylia and the logics of the subject's quest for empowerment, in a context of strong social and normative regulations. While the influence of evangelical movements and their global offensive on local groups has been widely exploited to account for conversions in Algeria, the aim here is to demonstrate that this reading grid is not sufficient to grasp the issues at stake in the emergence of a new ethic observed within a group driven by a need for self-care. We will try to focus the analysis on the process of individualization, a formulation that can be heuristic to analyse the religious not as an invariable entity, but as a social phenomenon with variable interpretations linked to space and time. In sum, this article allows us to see that, well beyond the change in representations and practices, the question of conversions provides a framework for analysing the agentivity of actors.

In the contemporary society or the “society of risk” as was baptized by Beck in the eighties, the nature of risk is in perpetual evolution. Certain risks dress a dynamic aspect and the consequences of which are of large-scales. Therefore, these major risks differ significantly from Baruch Berliner’s earlier insurance conditions of 1982. Indeed, the increasing uncertainty which surrounds us imprints the insurance by new gaps: the ignorance of the occurrence of the major risks as well as the difficulty of the evaluation of theirs gravities. In this context, the risk management of natural disasters takes on a big importance as well for the social well-being as for the economic blooming and the growth generally.Therefore, this article aims at testing the relation between the improvement of the natural disasters insurance and economic development of twenty four countries of the OECD. The used technique is the method of data of panel. We propose an analysis of integration-cointegration on panel, by using the method of Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS). The found results approve well the existence of a positive relation between the prosperity of the natural disasters insurance (measured by the rate of insurance’s penetration) and the development growth of our sample (measured by the GDP per person).
