Abstract

La participation active d'Albert Speer au régime national-socialiste, en tant qu'architecte officiel puis comme ministre de l'Armement et de l'Economie de guerre, demeure un sujet déconcertant sinon gênant pour la plupart des architectes et historiens de l'architecture. L'analyse de son architecture dans ses relations avec l'idéologie nazie n'a rarement, sinon jamais été abordée par les architectes. L'objectif premier de ce mémoire est de pallier les manquements de certains ouvrages en instaurant un outil de compréhension de la relation entre l'architecture de Speer et le régime national-socialiste. Il s'agit de démontrer que l'architecture ne peut être dissociée de son contexte et que, par conséquent, on ne peut parler de neutralité politique de l'architecture. De là la nécéssité de s'interroger sur le théorie de Léon Krier qui consiste à dissocier l'architecture de Speer du régime national-socialiste pour ainsi la récupérer comme façade civilisatrice. L'analyse de l'influence et du rôle qu'a joué l'architecture sous le troisième Reich constitue le point de départ de ce mémoire. Nicolas Schuybroek y aborde les influences subies par Speer ainsi que l'architecture qu'il développe par la suite, illustrant ses propos par l'analyse d'édifices de l'axe nord-sud à Berlin. Cet état des lieux est suivi d'une réflexion sur la neutralité politique de l'architecture. Dans un premier temps, l'auteur fait état des conceptions de Krier, infirmant ensuite leur exactitude à travers les propres déclarations de Speer ainsi que par l'analyse de la relation entre architecture et population allemande, en termes de masse.

Abstract

Andrew Bell's analysis of the power of prestige in civic communities of the ancient world demonstrates the importance of crowds' aesthetic and emotional judgement upon leaders and their ambitious claims for immediate and lasting significance; and also finds consideration of this dynamic still to be valuable for modern citizens. An initial discussion of the fall of Ceausescu in 1989 prompts theoretical considerations about the inseparability of authority and its manifestation; andscrutiny of Julius Caesar's gestures towards self-definition introduces the complexity of ancient political relation

Abstract

This book presents results of a cross-national research project on self-employment in eleven advanced economies and demonstrates how and why the practice is reemerging in modern societies. While traditional forms of self-employment, such as skilled crafts work and shop keeping, are in decline, they are being replaced by self-employment in both professional and unskilled occupations. Differences in self-employment across societies depend on the extent to which labor markets are regulated and the degree to which intergenerational family relationships are a primary factor structuring social organization. For each of the eleven countries analyzed, the book highlights the extent to which social background, educational attainment, work history, family status, and gender affect the likelihood that an individual will enter--and continue--a particular type of self-employment. While involvement with self-employment is becoming more common, it is occurring for individuals in activities that are more diverse, unstable and transitory than in years past.
