Abstract: This study aims to contribute to the strategic decisions of airline companies in determining of their destinations. Using the data of 617 airlines, it was tried to investigate whether there are rules of association between the companies' destinations. Through the analysis made with two different data sets, the rules of association were sought considering both all the destinations and the foreign destinations of the companies. In the analysis of all destinations, 197 rules could be produced with 90% and above confidence level. In the analysis between the companies' foreign destinations, 200 rules with 100% confidence level could be produced. It is presented as a suggestion that airlines can benefit from these rules in their destination planning.

Des succursales d'associations françaises diffusant la culture française sous la colonisation à la jeunesse unique marxiste révolutionnaire (1972-1990), en passant par les associations de revendication identitaire et d'indépendance (1950-1960), les associations de jeunesse béninoises ont surtout servi des enjeux politiques. Avec l'ère démocratique de 1990, elles ont suscité des espoirs quant à l'éducation et l'intégration des jeunes. Après un historique qui stigmatise leur rôle politique jusqu'en 1990, l'étude de la période actuelle révèle leur contribution à «l'éducation tout au long de la vie», malgré un fonctionnement gérontocratique et les stratégies de pouvoir des dirigeants.

The past decade has seen an unprecedented outpouring of federal laws, executive orders and new appropriations intended to benefit the elderly. A frequently overlooked, but quite significant, factor in this development has been the increased organized activity on the part of senior citizens themselves. In marked contrast to the old age groups of an earlier period, the elderly in recent years have coalesced behind groups with a high level of political rationality and internal organizational discipline. While aging groups are of various types and seek to fill a variety of functions, there is reason to focus on one category—the mass-membership organization—as especially important in helping to give shape and focus to widespread latent sentiments in the old age population. The rather striking success of three such groups—the American Association of Retired Persons-National Retired Teachers Association, the National Council of Senior Citizens and the National Association of Retired Federal Employees—can be analyzed in terms of their having found sources of income outside member dues, having created bureaucracies re cruited on the basis of performance criteria rather than charisma and having capitalized effectively on the emergence in recent years of a more benign climate for old age activity. By combining these criteria the groups consid ered appear capable both of insuring their own organiza tional survival and of continuing to exert an influence on federal policy makers.
