This article offers a re-reading of collaborative practices as a new approach to recognizing the concept of "being together and working together" in the field of children's mental health. Our objective is theoretical, not empirical, and our main objective is to spark reflective thinking with respect to collaborative practices, beginning with social services as a discipline based on egalitarian exchange, i.e. providing leverage for joint action by the professions at the child's bedside. We are also suggesting a pause that will allow us dispense with current dogma and review these concepts as child-centered collaborative practices. The article contains four subdivisions, each one with different objectives. Initially we will be looking at children's mental health as a field to be defined within a theoretical area and offering essentially collaborative practice. The second subdivision has allowed us to explore a new semantic approach to the concepts of collaboration and partnership. The third part presents the social service as an interface in the issue of child-centered collaborative practices. The fourth part illustrates collaborative work by structuring the framework of procedural practice within the field of children's mental health.

ABSTRACTThe aim of this paper is to assess the role of linguistic planning in the establishment of actual usage in the feminization of job titles. I will examine the state of planning in two key French-speaking areas, France and Quebec, as well as the norms applied in these two countries. I will then analyse how certain titles for jobs held by women are used in a corpus drawn from the written news media. I conclude that in Quebec linguistic planning has led to a real revolution in usage. In France, on the other hand, the development of the phenomenon has been quite different, and the influence of linguistic planning on usage has been minimal.

AbstractThe academic challenges of ethnocultural diversity in Montreal, often fuelled by immigration, have usually been been analysed in terms of academic success. However, negative social interactions or lack of positive interactions experienced by students constitute a risk for their psychosocial development. For immigrant students, that risk becomes more and more complex by being grafted with other challenges : a loss of landmarks, a new social network, intensive decoding of codes of sociability, etc. Based on an ethnographic approach combining observation meetings and interviews with various protagonists (children, parents, teachers), this article describes the dynamics of social interaction in pluri-ethnic classes and presents two distinct relational profiles (rejected and popular). The benefits of a finely tuned understanding of relational dynamics are analysed: for class management in a pluri-ethnic context, for a better understanding of the school-related stress experienced by immigrant students and as well as for an effective support by the teacher and the parents of students' socialization process at school.

AbstractThis paper deals with monetary localism. It is defined as the organization of a location of exchanges within a specific space by means of an adaptation of the existing monetary system or the construction of a proper monetary system. The paper brings up the forms taken by monetary localism since the 1980's, which experiences a very strong dynamics. It distinguishes between three localisms: a State territorial localism, an infra-State territorial localism and a community localism. It draws four rationalities whose diverse combinations characterize the varied cases of contemporary monetary localisms: to gain incomes, to protect the local space, to revitalize the local activity and to transform the nature of exchanges. Five examples illustrate these combinations. The paper argues that it can be relevant to analyze under the category of monetary localism phenomena which are however generally distinguished. Drawing rationalities at work in these phenomena enables to understand this unity beyond the variety of the forms of monetary localism.

In this article we examine the state of the financial profession in the top Canadianuniversities based on the scientific contribution of faculty members as measuredby the number of citations their publications receive. We concentrate our analysis on articles published since 2000 in refereed scientificand professional outlets. We find that Canadian universities can be classified inthree groups depending on their output. In the first group, by itself, we find theRotman School of the University of Toronto. McGill, HEC Montréal, UBC, Yorkand Alberta compose the second group. All other universities are found in thethird group since their research production in finance in significantly lower thanwhat we find in what I call the six original Canadian universities in finance.

In a context where the integration of AI into organizations’ processes, products and services is becoming crucial, we carried out a study focused on the development of AI project management skillsand noted the growing importance of soft skills. As these skills are traditionally acquired in a collective work environment, our aim was to capture the collaborative versus individual dimensions in the development of these skills from the point of view of AI project managers. Our text deals with the process of developing a skills repository, co-constructed with experts in the field, as well as the analyses that emerged from this process in terms of the skills required and how these skills are acquired for the development of professional identity. This repository aims to guide training institutions’’ AI management training strategiesso that they can design training adapted to the reality of the workplace, including collaborative learning needs.

The research objective of this article is the issue of developing reflexivity skills among organizational development consultants, who are stakeholders in organizational change (OC) management. The scientific literature clearly shows that the challenges caused by OC are difficult to overcome for managers, as well as for their experts. Paradoxically, the experts also have difficulty meeting the challenges for their own OCs. This article provides a reflection based on field examples aiming to promote a reflective practice based on psycho-sociological interdisciplinarity as a way of experimenting with greater power to act on OC. Once the need for a view as close as possible to the reality of work has been demonstrated to better understand the experience of the OC, a rereading is done using part of the results of three action researches in an organizational consultation environment, using the effects on health at work of consultants, using the joint occurrence between work OCs, particularly those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and using the requirement to review their professional practices. The psycho-sociological interdisciplinarity used in this research then led the participants to deepen their understanding of the effects of OC on the exercise of their profession as consultants. This action research also allowed them to widen and diversify their repertory of strategies for improving the quality of their work by freeing up leeway to manoeuvre and increase their power to act. The conditions for OC success are thus examined, leading the authors to propose an integrated model for the power to act for such an objective.
