Abstract

Can taking the perspective of an out-group reduce prejudice and promote prosociality Building on insights from social psychology, this paper studies the case of Colombian natives and Venezuelan immigrants. This was done by conducting an online experiment in which natives were randomly assigned either to play an online game that immersed them in the life of a Venezuelan migrant or to watch a documentary about Venezuelans crossing the border on foot. Relative to a control group, both treatments increased altruism towards Venezuelans and improved some attitudes, but only the game significantly increased self-reported trust.

Abstract

L'auteur étudie les mécanismes de l'émergence récente du "biologisme social" et des thèses de l'inégalité naturelle, fondement du racisme "scientifique" en vogue ; il trace un parallèle entre la crise socio-économique et le développement de certaines idées biologiques conservatrices. Prenant l'exemple des Etats-Unis, il montre comment, avec la crise économique des années 70 renaît l'idée de la méritocratie, de l'inégalité naturelle, de l'infériorité des noirs et apparaît un mouvement néo-conservateur où se retrouvent de nombreux intellectuels, scientifiques. En 1975, paraît le livre de Edward O. Wilson : "Sociobiology : the new synthesis". C. Haghighat analyse en détail toutes les thèses de cet auteur dont la théorie centrale est que l'organisation de la société est exclusivement le prolongement de la nature biologique de l'homme. Sont ensuite étudiés les différents courants biologiques en fonction du rôle qu'ils jouent dans l'approvisionnement du libéralisme en idées réactionnaires et racistes : les théories héréditaristes de l'inégalité, le réductionnisme éthologique, la nouvelle droite en France.

Abstract

Drawing on the work of leading economists, the Anti-Textbook lays bare the blind spots in the texts and their sins of omission and commission. It shows where hidden value judgements are made and when contrary evidence is ignored. It shows the claims made without any evidence and the alternative theories that aren't mentioned. It shows the importance of power, social context and legal framework. The Economics Anti-Textbook is the students' guide to decoding the textbooks and shows how real economics is much more interesting than most economists are willing to let on.

Abstract

Juxtaposing a discussion of state policy with ideas of race and citizenship in Canadian civil society, Carmela K. Patrias shows how minority activists were able to bring national attention to racist employment discrimination during the Second World War and obtain official condemnation of such discrimination.

Abstract

The unique historical relationship between capitalism and the Jews is crucial to understanding modern European and Jewish history. But the subject has been addressed less often by mainstream historians than by anti-Semites or apologists. In this book Jerry Muller, a leading historian of capitalism, separates myth from reality to explain why the Jewish experience with capitalism has been so important and complex--and so ambivalent. Drawing on economic, social, political, and intellectual history from medieval Europe through contemporary America and Israel, Capitalism and the Jews examines the ways in which thinking about capitalism and thinking about the Jews have gone hand in hand in European thought, and why anticapitalism and anti-Semitism have frequently been linked. The book explains why Jews have tended to be disproportionately successful in capitalist societies, but also why Jews have numbered among the fiercest anticapitalists and Communists. The book shows how the ancient idea that money was unproductive led from the stigmatization of usury and the Jews to the stigmatization of finance and, ultimately, in Marxism, the stigmatization of capitalism itself. Finally, the book traces how the traditional status of the Jews as a diasporic merchant minority both encouraged their economic success and made them particularly vulnerable to the ethnic nationalism of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Providing a fresh look at an important but frequently misunderstood subject, Capitalism and the Jews will interest anyone who wants to understand the Jewish role in the development of capitalism, the role of capitalism in the modern fate of the Jews, or the ways in which the story of capitalism and the Jews has affected the history of Europe and beyond, from the medieval period to our own.

Abstract

La présente chronique de jurisprudence contient une analyse détaillée des décisions qui ont été publiées tant en français qu’en néerlandais, entre 1996 et 2007, en matière d’évaluation et de réparation du dommage. L’examen porte sur les principes généraux et le dommage aux personnes (blessures et décès), le dommage aux choses, les atteintes aux droits de la personnalité et certains dommages particuliers, ainsi que les frais de défense et les intérêts. Conçue comme un outil destiné prioritairement aux praticiens, cette chronique replace systématiquement les décisions en perspective, dégage les orientations de la jurisprudence et comporte au besoin une analyse critique des jugements et arrêts répertoriés. La doctrine publiée au cours de la période étudiée est également signalée et, le cas échéant, discutée. Rédigée par deux membres du Centre de recherche en droit privé de l’UCL, la présente chronique de jurisprudence offre donc une vue d’ensemble du droit de la réparation, tel qu’il est actuellement appliqué en Belgique.
