The representation of women through a social construction of gender is at the heart of feminism. But which feminism are we talking about, defined through which ideological struggles? The contradictions of the critique of each of the four waves of feminism are carried by many ideological currents (liberal, radical, differentialist, intersectional, neoliberal) that differently put into perspective the transformation of women’s place in society. Have we witnessed an evolution from one wave to the next, forming the continuity of the same movement, or a variety of ideologies opposing each other? Any conception of the relationship to gender requires to be crossed with other perspectives to understand the conditions of its mutation. Have the current confusion between sex and gender, as well as the invalidation of the biological binarity of the sexes reached limits beyond which women, by losing their public visibility, would no longer be recognized as such?

This article examines the letters of the last hour written by Mary Stuart during her captivity in Fotheringay before her death on February 8, 1587. Addressed to her contemporaries, these letters allow Mary Stuart to control until the end the image of her that will remain in collective memory and, at the same time, they promote self-examination. The letter of the last hour is closely related to several literary genres like the farewell letter, the arts of dying, and the testament but its specificity lies in its relation to the ritual of death as it was conceived at the time.

Objectives To synthesize the available epidemiological and clinical evidence relevant to the mental health care of migrant, ethnic minority and Indigenous populations in the context of early psychosis.Methods This study provides a narrative review of the literature on psychosis in these populations, including issues related to the provision of early intervention services for psychosis.Results Migrant status has long been reported as a significant risk factor for psychosis in many geographic contexts. This increased risk among migrants seems to persist beyond the first generation and has been found to be higher in all migrant populations, but especially for black ethnic minorities and individuals migrating from economically developing countries to developed ones. Recent evidence suggests that this higher risk is at least in part due to migrants' and minorities' cumulative exposure to social adversities, such as racial discrimination, marginalization and socio-economic disadvantage. Systemic racism affects migrant and minority populations by creating bias in diagnostic practices and aggravating treatment disparities in addition to contributing to causation of psychosis. Furthermore, migrant and ethnic minority groups are known to seek mental healthcare after longer delays, to be more frequently forcibly hospitalized, to disengage from treatment prematurely and to be less satisfied with their treatment. The consideration of social and cultural context and factors is essential to the provision of good healthcare, especially in a culturally diverse society. Furthermore, acknowledging power relationships that stem from the societal context and shape institutions and models of care is a key step towards structural competence and safety in mental healthcare. Several strategies have been proposed to make mental healthcare services and systems more culturally and structurally competent. These include the use of interpreters and cultural brokers, tailored assessments and specialised cultural interventions. However, these strategies have yet to be adopted broadly in early intervention for psychosis.Conclusion Given its emphasis on meaningful engagement and person-centered care, early intervention should integrate inclusive, structurally competent and context-informed interventions as a priority. Efforts must be made to apply knowledge from and adapt the tools of social and cultural psychiatry to the field of early intervention in psychosis. Sociocultural considerations, hitherto inconsistently applied in psychosis research and service design in Quebec, are especially relevant to the province given its distinct linguistic context, its increasing cultural diversity, and its ongoing effort to systematize and expand the delivery of early intervention services.

This article is an attempt to investigate the various meanings of the words « postmodernity », « postmodernism » and « postmodern ». It also assesses the significance of these words and of the concepts that they express for criminology. The paper is divided in three parts. The first part tries to dispell important misunderstandings that have sprung in relation to postmodernisrn. The most significant of these is the belief that there is such a thing as a postmodernist « method » in the social sciences. The second part identifies the origin of the term « postmodern » and discusses various themes which are perceived to be characteristic of postmodern thought. These themes are : the present legitimation crisis, the internal reflexivity of scientific theory, discourse analysis and meta-language, social and cultural fragmentation and historical pessimism. The last part draws the consequences of the preceding analyses for the development of criminology.

AbstractIn 2001, Cay Dollerup and Silvana Orel-Kos from Tampere University revealed how co-printing was a common practice in the translation of children's books. More recently, based on his analysis of a corpus of how-to titles published in France, Christian Robin (2006) suggested that, in this particular sector, co-publishing had become the norm. But what about the other sectors of the industry? How widespread is international co-publishing really? What forms can it take? What are the consequences of such international partnerships for publishers, translators, and for those who study their practices: translation scholars? This essay proposes some tentative answers to these questions. Drawing on the practice of several Québec publishers and translators, this discussion aims to highlight how co-publishing is no longer exclusive to minor languages or illustrated books, but rather has tended to spread to other sectors of the industry, including the most “literary” ones, as well as to international languages. It explores finally the theoretical and practical implications of this fact.

This study is a narrative literature review resulting from a scientific mediation synthesis on digital inequalities in education, with the aim of (1) extending our first synthesis with the following questions: what are the avenues for research? and what are the heuristic concepts? and (2) reflecting on the links between scientific research and mediation. Our theoretical anchoring is at the crossroads of the sociocritical approach to educational digital uses, didactics, and scientific mediation. Our corpus, the inclusion criteria of which are made explicit, is composed of 80 studies from European and North American works published between 2002 and 2022. In response to our questions, this study brings to light a number of issues that are still in progress – a mapping of inequalities in teacher use that need to be completed, links with educational pathways that need to be clarified, design biases that need to be examined, and notions of participation in (or exclusion from) digital environments that need to be explored – and heuristically fruitful concepts, as well as for practice, such as digital capital and literacy.
