Prévention contre les violences éducatives ordinaires et les violences sexistes

Notre contribution a pour objectif de comprendre comment s’articulent plusieurs formes de violences, violences éducatives ordinaires (abrégées «VEO») et violences sexistes, dans le travail créatif de la bédéiste Fanny Vella, à l’ère d’une quatrième vague féministe et dans le cadre de publications sur les réseaux sociaux numériques (RSN). Nous présentons d’abord notre cadrage théorique, puis, nous dévoilons le système de valeurs – croyances, imaginaires et figurabilité – des VEO et des violences sexistes dans les créations de l’autrice. D’une part, le travail de (re)présentation de l’artiste sur la toile s’appuie principalement sur l’exploitation des univers numériques d’Instagram et Facebook ; d’autre part, les planches de Fanny Vella nous plongent dans une forme d’expérience sensible, « esthésique », « esthétique » et « éthique » où la figurabilité polysémique de la violence s’anime via les émotions, prend corps symboliquement par des objets sociaux et culturel et se performe dans la scène communicationnelle.The aim of our contribution is to understand how various forms of violence, ordinary educational violence (abbreviated to ‘OEV’) and gender-based violence, are articulated in the creative work of the comix artist Fanny Vella in the era of a fourth feminist wave, as in the context of publications on digital social networks (DSN). We first present our theoretical framework and then unveil the value system - beliefs, imaginaries, and figurability - of OEV and gender-based violence in the author's creations. On the one hand, the artist's work of (re)presentation on the web is mainly based on the exploitation of the digital universes of Instagram and Facebook; while on the other, Fanny Vella's plates plunge us into a form of sensitive, ‘aesthetic,’ and ‘ethical’ experience where the polysemic figurability of violence comes alive via emotions, takes on a symbolic body through social and cultural objects, and is performed within the communicative scene

Regulating Assisted Reproduction in Canada, Switzerland, and the USA: Comparing the Judicialization of Policy-making

This article analyses the extent to which courts shape policies for assisted reproduction. While the USA is considered to be the most litigious country, Canada has observed a growing involvement of the courts from the 1980’s onward, and Switzerland is characterized by a modest degree of judicialization. Based on national patterns, we would expect litigation and court impact to vary across these three countries. As this paper demonstrates, policy-process specific variables such as the structure of policy conflicts, the novelty of regulation, self-regulation by key stakeholders, and the policies in place better explain the variation in the judicialization of policy-making

O Modelo de Janus da regulação jurídica. O carácter revelador das transformações do estatuto político da justiça

Partindo de um posicionamento de investigação das ciências sociais no qual se privilegia a dimensão política do direito e da justiça, o autor analisa três orientações tomadas pela justiça: inscrita num processo de racionalização; participante num movimento de democratização; e elemento de um processo de neoliberalização. A partir da análise destes três tipos de regimes de regulação jurídica, parece ser possível identificar duas formas distintas de estatuto do jurídico e do judicial em relação ao político: na primeira, o jurídico‑judicial surge como um elemento central da regulação do político; na segunda, o jurídico‑judicial é instrumentalizado pelo político. Em conclusão, avança‑se a hipótese segundo a qual a existência deste modelo de Janus de regulação jurídico‑judicial seria reveladora de uma crise do político

La toile et les femmes

Ce numéro de Sextant, dans la continuité de réflexions contemporaines post-#MeToo, entend s'interroger sur les rapports entre le numérique, les discours féministes, leurs circulations, leurs formes polysémiotiques. Il est placé à la fois sous le signe de la « toile », figure métaphorique pour envisager les liens tissés entre les discours féministes (en ce compris anti-) et la technologie numérique, et fait écho à la toile de l'araignée et aux œuvres arachnides de l'artiste féministe Louise Bourgeois rappelant le travail du tissu des brodeuses et tapissières comme celui des artistes et peintres féminines. Et dans le souvenir d’une grande militante féministe belge et agitatrice du Net, Irène Kaufer, disparue le 5 novembre 2022. This issue of Sextant, in the continuity of contemporary post-#MeToo reflections, intends to question the relationships between the digital, feminist discourses, their circulations and their polysemiotic forms. It is placed under the sign of the “web”, a metaphorical figure for considering the links woven between feminist discourses (including anti-) and digital technology, and echoes the web of the spider and the arachnid works of feminist artist Louise Bourgeois, recalling the work of embroiderers and tapestry-makers with fabric, as well as that of female artists and painters. And in the memory of a great Belgian feminist activist and Net agitator, Irène Kaufer, who died on 5 November 2022
