TL;DR: The authors decrit le modele transtheorique (MTT), un modele integratif de changement intentionnel de comportement in tabacologie.
Abstract: Resume Cet article decrit le modele transtheorique (MTT), un modele integratif de changement intentionnel de comportement Connu depuis peu en France, ce modele jouit dans les pays anglo-saxons d’une grande popularite et a genere un nombre important de recherches et de publications qui seront resumees dans cet article Recemment, ce modele a fait l’objet d’une polemique En effet, R West a incite les chercheurs et les cliniciens, dans un article polemique paru en 2005, a abandonner ce modele Les principales critiques de West, critiques partielles concernant essentiellement les stades de changement en tabacologie, seront reprises et des contre-arguments seront presentes Dans la derniere partie de l’article, les limites ainsi que les points forts du modele seront presentes En effet, malgre son utilisation repandue et son grand interet, ce modele presente certaines limites, notamment en ce qui concerne l’operationnalisation et l’evaluation des stades de changement Enfin, nous montrerons l’interet de ce modele, applicable a une grande variete de comportements et constituant une synthese de diverses methodes de traitement Il a egalement le merite d’avoir mis en evidence des facteurs facilitant le processus de changement durant la prise en charge, ainsi que des facteurs pronostiques de la reussite du traitement Malgre ses limites, le MTT preserve sa valeur Il genere des questionnements et des recherches interessantes qui en permettront vraisemblablement le raffinement et feront avancer l’etat des recherches sur le changement intentionnel de comportement

TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic international capital asset pricing model (ICAPM) is proposed to evaluate the degree of financial integration in emerging markets, rather than individual markets, using actual real exchange rates as a common source of risk.
Abstract: I. INTRODUCTION Economic Integration is, first of all, the gradual elimination or abolition of economic barriers which impede free movement of goods, services, capital and people among a group of nations. Today we can distinguish a variety of economic integrations in the world from different perspectives such as "degree", "size" and "diversity". With respect to the "size" of Economic Integration, we can separate regional Economic Integration from the Global Economic Integration, like lowering tariffs in the framework of the rounds under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and World Trade Organization (WTO). There are more than 150 regional economic integrations around the world, in which the EU, the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the emerging South East Asian Economic integration are the three biggest regional integrations with respect to their economic size. These regional trade agreements result in part from a greater openness of the member countries, and a desire to become more competitive in the world market by mobilizing their joint efforts and synergies. However, the links between global and regional integration are not the same in each area. In some regions, international integration preceded the regional one, as happened in Asia, whereas the reverse approach is seen in other areas such as Latin America. Moreover, the speed of this financial integration process may vary over time, and differs from one region to another. So Globalization and financial integration in particular, can enable emerging markets to achieve better diversification of their risks, efficient allocation of capital, and offers great potential for economic growth. But on the other hand, this may have undesirable effects, including an increase in financial vulnerability due to external shocks, and disparities in their commercial exchanges with developed countries (Levine and Zervos, 1996; Stiglitz, 2002; Bekaert et al., 2002). An assessment of the level of financial integration of these markets is thus crucial, since the latter seems to be inevitable and the source of all the complexities affecting international asset pricing and regional economic-cooperation policies. Studies conducted on this topic can also shed light on other aspects, including the current trend of financial integration, its determinants, and its effects on the risk premium and the cost of capital in an international context. Although previous studies have provided a general understanding of the global integration process of individual emerging markets over the recent decades (Errunza and Losq, 1985; Bekaert and Harvey, 1995; Jong and Roon, 2005; Carrieri et al., 2007; Pukthuanthong and Roll, 2009), little attention has been paid to the dynamics of the integration of emerging market regions into the world market, which has now become an undeniable trend. Moreover, on the methodological level, the potential time-varying shifts in the integration process that governs stock-market return dynamics, resulting from the structural reforms undertaken by emerging countries, have rarely been considered. This then leads to a biased assessment of the degree of financial integration. This study contributes to the existing literature by developing a dynamic international capital asset pricing model (ICAPM) allowing for smooth transition between different integration regimes. Specifically, expected returns may move from a perfectly-segmented regime to a perfectly-integrated one, or vice versa, depending on a certain number of national and international factors that are likely to drive the process of regional integration. Our study differs from past studies in that we investigate the integration of emerging market into a regional market, rather than individual emerging markets, using actual real exchange rates as a common source of risk, in addition to regional and domestic sources of risk. Our results show that the degree of integration in South East Asian emerging market region varied widely through time over the period 1996-2008. …

TL;DR: In this paper, a logique dindividualisation, de mise en concurrence systematique et de definition d’objectifs personnalises is presented.
Abstract: En imposant, sur la base de criteres de rentabilite, une logique d’individualisation, de mise en concurrence systematique et de definition d’objectifs personnalises, la modernisation manageriale a souvent abouti a transformer le travail en une epreuve individuelle ou chacun se trouve dans une quete solitaire de sens et de valeurs. Cette evolution s’accompagne d’un mal-etre au travail, dont on peut redouter qu’ils s’etende a la societe toute entiere.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used stock exchange data to measure the value of media capture in Interwar France and compared it with the UK in terms of the time-series evolution of the media capture price.
Abstract: Measurement of the value of “media capture” (the control of newspapers by business or political interests) is difficult. However, if capture is valuable, it should affect the price of newspaper shares. Useful information about the value of media capture should be retrievable from Stock Exchange data. Interwar France provides a unique setting to implement this idea because key newspapers floated voting and nonvoting stocks. Combined with takeover prices, data yield estimates of the price of media capture and of the time-series evolution of this price. Comparison with Britain sheds new light on a dark episode of French history.

TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive overview of recent rigorous results concerning the equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics of the East model together with some new improvements is given, as well as an extensive discussion of the key features of the dynamics of glasses.
Abstract: The East model is a particular one dimensional interacting particle system in which certain transitions are forbidden according to some constraints depending on the configuration of the system. As such it has received particular attention in the physics literature as a special case of a more general class of systems referred to as kinetically constrained models, which play a key role in explaining some features of the dynamics of glasses. In this paper we give an extensive overview of recent rigorous results concerning the equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics of the East model together with some new improvements.
