    A self-taught generation.Seen as a tool for rationalizing work by management and, more generally, by all those able to play on the multipositionality of their professional identity, desktop computers have sometimes been perceived by the most dominated employees as a two-edged instrument leading, on the one hand, to the recognition of unofficial skills but, on the other, to self-exploiting behaviors that are the more tempting for being the condition for important professional upgrading.For those users in lower-ranking jobs with little autonomy, computers are a « plus », which allow them to enhance biographical features associated with schooling, family background, professional experience, a set of singular traits which nevertheless share the fact of being distinctive with regard to the qualities of those occupying equivalent jobs and which are the basis of useable qualifications. The diffusion of computer skills primarily via the workplace appears as a conjuncture in which these hitherto invisible or purportedly useless qualities become pertinent and can therefore be turned into professional qualifications. For this generation of adults faced with going back to school, computerization has crystallized a real skill that had not yet found a use or which had gone almost entirely unnoticed.

    We propose to analyze both the network of actors and the network of the discourses mobilized in the controversy around Professor Didier Raoult and his Hydroxychloroquine-based therapeutic proposal against COVID-19. In order to confirm our hypothesis, we implement a sophisticated and innovative research method on a corpus of 1.2 million Tweets, which consists in applying a network analysis combined with a lexicometrics analysis. We show that the reaction peaks on Twitter were linked to important media events. Moreoever, many groups clustered around the accounts of political figures and media outlets that received numerous mentions. Trump's and Bolsonaro's supporter groups also connected with the French-speaking pro-Raoult groups. The messages of the pro-Raoult are a critique of the political economy of liberasim and its impasses, and not simply an anti-science conspiracy.

    The article examines Ukrainian composer Leonid Hrabovsky's development of an algorithmic composition method from a broad historical perspective. The composer began working on the algorithmic composition method in the 1960s, during the formation of the avant-garde and dissident movement in Ukraine, and completed it in 2015, during the active decolonisation and European integration movement in Ukraine.

    Online disinformation is not on the decline. The term infocalypse was actually coined by Schick (2020) to describe the seriousness of disinformation in the form of malicious deepfakes, which obscure what was previously considered authentic. This reflective article explores the complexity of the deepfake phenomenon to emphasize the urgent need for research that directly addresses educators and decision-makers. Under the lens of citizenship education, we argue that teachers, parents and educational actors must support students in developing critical thinking, agency in the digital environment and the ability to recognize deepfakes so that they can protect themselves and counteract this phenomenon. To answer the question "Why educate young people on malicious deepfakes?” we started by exploring this phenomenon and its dangers in the context of disinformation. First, this article exposes how deepfakes destabilize the perceptual foundations of human knowledge and discusses their threat to our societies. Secondly, it presents avenues considered and draws attention to the urgency of alerting young people to these dangers and involving them in counteracting this form of disinformation. Lastly, the article offers avenues for research in digital citizenship.

    Electronics is the core of fundamental mutations that are upsetting the whole world industrial system and have been going on for a decade. The French electronics industry, far from having a leading position, followed hardly the world evolution when the new government in 1981 decided a restructuration in order to serve a global strategy for recovery. This paper aims to evaluate the results of French firms to a double constraint, that of the world evolution and the public policy one. So, French electronics is on the knife-edge, as each other can contribute to its collapse. No progress can escape denying the past public strategy but it cannot be long-lasting without substituting a clearly defined alternative strategy.

    The present study seeks to characterise French language SME research by comparing it with equivalent efforts published in English language reviews. It conducts towards this end an analysis of studies containing the French expression “PME” and/or the English term “SME” in article abstracts published from 2013 through 2024. 520 of the articles in question were written in French versus 5,406 in English, involving a total of 11,430 different authors. The ensuing analysis was produced by a network of co-authors based on a remarkable identification of vocabulary categories. The findings indicate a limited interaction between French and English language researchers and authors. It would also appear that the themes covered vary noticeably depending on whether an article has been written in French or English.

    The hypothesis of a progressive transformation of historical conditions seems invalidated by the course of the thirty years since the end of the Cold War. Politically, everything indicates that friend / foe logic continues - it is the easiest way to federate public opinion. Sociologically, the uses of the means of communication interpersonal landmark, substituting exchanges between people to political spaces. Christophe Bouton discusses the role of the great man in history, and Jaron Lanier indicates the challenge of computer networks to seize our era. But everything indicates that the technical upheavals are in turn factors of historical transformations.
