Families of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience significant financial hardship due to the specialized service needs of these children and the low employment rate of these mothers. In light of the current context in which financial independence and spousal autonomy are valued, the authors aim, with this study, to identify the economic dynamics between spouses who are parents of children with ASD. The qualitative analysis of 18 interviews with these parents shows that financial inequalities in the household are common and that mothers are likely to be impoverished in the short, medium and long term.

Focusing on the situation of deaf bilingualism in Canada, where sign languages (SLs) are in a situation of diglossia with respect to the official languages, we examine the role and status of SLs in accessibility policies and in Quebecers deaf citizens’ perceptions of equal access to information. Our analysis of deaf citizens’ perceptions and experience (7 focus groups, 13 interviews) shows that adequate accessibility is defined by i) the respect of political commitments, ii) the establishment of norms of accessibility involving free choice of language, iii) personal control of technical parameters, iv) the recognition of deaf expertise’s, and v) the requirement of training and qualification. This analysis reveals a dichotomy between the absence of language policies regarding canadian SLs and the Accessible Canada Act’s goal of eliminating obstacles to information accessibility.

Since 2015, the French-speaking Belgian compulsory education system has been involved in a comprehensive reform plan called the Pact for Teaching Excellence. The Pact of Excellence introduces a new form of institutional regulation based on a contractual relationship between the competent public authority and schools. Based on the model of the cities of Boltanski and Thévenot (1991) and a lexicographical analysis of official documents, this article examines, from a historical perspective, the progressive introduction of the new logic of coordination of the work of the actors of the educational system. It demonstrates that the regulation of the educational system is based on managerial logic that is particularly compatible with certain pedagogical principles.

The Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CÉMAC) was founded in 1994, almost at the same period during which the World Trade Organisation (WTO) was founded. The aim of the CÉMAC was to intensify regional trade amongst its Member States. This regional organisation has elaborated a community customs law that deals with the sharing of competences between the institutions of the community and the Member States. It also organises the customs clearance procedure and the rules of customs dispute settlement. It is proven that the customs rules of CÉMAC meet the WTO rules on customs valuation. But the overall implementation of customs rules by the customs administrations of the Member States is not uniform. This lack of uniformity does not meet provisions of the GATT 1994.
