With the widespread use of contraception (mostly female) in the second half of the 20th century in most Western countries and the substantial scientific advances in assisted reproduction, the concept of “family” is expanding and the dissociation between parenthood and conjugality is increasingly questioning. Here, we assess the significance of the dissociation/conciliation between conjugal life and parenthood through sociological interviews which were conducted with “voluntarily childless people.” “Voluntarily childless people” evidenced the contradictions between the normative conditions of the “work” of being parent and of the “work” of being partner in love and sex.
Keywords: infécondité volontaire, parentalité, conjugalité, normes sociales, genre, voluntary infecundity, parenthood, conjugality, social norms, gender

Can the approach of Elinor Ostrom (Nobel Prize in Economics in 2009) be used for studying cooperatives ? Based on an analysis of Ostrom’s works, the author sets out to clarify certain concepts. From an Ostromian perspective, it is not the concept of the commons that enables defining a cooperative but rather the idea of a self-organised institution. The cooperative is thus a self-organised institution because it is based on a system of rules created by members for themselves. Elinor Ostrom and the Bloomington school developed analytical tools and identified the key factors for the success of self-organisation in managing natural resources. These findings enable the author to develop hypotheses about the success of collective action in another type of situation – collective entrepreneurship in cooperatives.

Given that publishing deals with information, the essential building block of a new society, it follows that publishing is affected by the technological, economic, and social changes in its environment. The world of publishing is not condemned to perish but rather to adapt.New technologies modify traditional publishing and amalgamate technology with content. Within the context of globalisation, the Internet and electronic commerce, the future of publishers, booksellers and printers depends less on their ability to adapt to these new technologies but more on their ability to adapt to a changing marketplace. Real danger lies in neglecting to undertake a long-term analysis of the new context. The sale of books, magazines and newspapers is only a part of the market which has become an industry of content. Markets are becoming less local and more global with physical items circulating along side virtual products.

Each classroom is composed of a diversity of students with a wide range of needs. Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tiered approach that aims to meet the needs of all students. Universal Pedagogy has the same objective. To this end, the authors argue that there would be several benefits to further integrating Universal Pedagogy and RTI. This article aims to highlight the relationship between the principles of flexibility of Universal Pedagogy and RTI. It is based on a secondary analysis of a study on the roles of teachers and resource teachers in the context of implementing RTI. This article is a first step towards better integrating these two approaches in Quebec.

This article looks at the sexual transactions of young people from the point of view of professionals from different fields of social work who are responsible for their socio-educational follow-up. Through the analysis of five focus groups and one individual interview, involving a total of 34 people, the article examines the prevalence of gender norms in their discourse. It highlights how these discourses perpetuate the representation according to which the security and respectability of sexuality rests mainly on the responsibility of girls, thus reproducing a representation of gender relations based on the heterosexual norm and the gender order.

This article examines the representations of digital writing in several contemporary stories published between 2009 and 2021, and in particular the figuration of writers grappling with digital tools. Whether taken in a humorous or a more decisively satirical way, these representations constitute a particular form of reflexivity, giving us an opportunity to think about the literary aspect of contemporary digital uses.
