Abstract

La sous-traitance n’est que très peu envisagée par le code civil. À proprement parler, il n’y a d’ailleurs pas de contrat de sous-traitance, puisque celle-ci ne consiste qu’en l’articulation de deux ou plusieurs contrats d’entreprise. En pratique, cette articulation pose cependant des questions particulièrement délicates : opposabilité des clauses du marché principal au sous-traitant, dissociation des réceptions, mesures de la responsabilité des différents intervenants, coordination de l’intervention des divers sous-traitants, désignation des sous-traitants par le maître de l’ouvrage, action directe du sous-traitant contre le maître de l’ouvrage ou du second contre le premier… C’est à l’examen de ces questions que les auteurs de cet ouvrage se sont attachés

Abstract

This highly accessible, engagingly written book exposes the underbelly of California's Silicon Valley, the most successful high-technology region in the world, in a vivid ethnographic study of Mexican immigrants employed in Silicon Valley's low-wage jobs. Christian Zlolniski's on-the-ground investigation demonstrates how global forces have incorporated these workers as an integral part of the economy through subcontracting and other flexible labor practices and explores how these labor practices have in turn affected working conditions and workers' daily lives. In Zlolniski's analysis, these immigrants do not emerge merely as victims of a harsh economy; despite the obstacles they face, they are transforming labor and community politics, infusing new blood into labor unions, and challenging exclusionary notions of civic and political membership. This richly textured and complex portrait of one community opens a window onto the future of Mexican and other Latino immigrants in the new U.S. economy.

Abstract

Measuring the Performance of the Hollow State is the first in-depth look at the influence of performance measurement on the effectiveness of the federal government. To do this, the authors examine the influence of the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (with consideration of the later Program Assessment Rating Tool of 2002) on federal performance measurement, agency performance, and program outcomes. They focus a systematic examination on five agencies in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Servicesùthe Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service
